Pet boarding/training near El Segundo

“I’ve been bringing my 1.5 year old Dutch Shepard mix here for a while…it’s the only thing I can do that will truly exhaust him. I leave him overnight once a week and it calms him down for the whole week making it easier to train and walk him. They give him a bath and treat him with the same care I offer at home.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dr. Streiber went far above and beyond for our family during one of the most gut wrenching experiences we’ve ever faced with our dog, Silver. From the moment we received her osteosarcoma diagnosis, he treated us with extraordinary compassion, patience, and honesty.

Dr. Streiber spent multiple hour-long phone calls with my wife and me, carefully explaining Silver’s diagnosis, the possible progression of the disease, and the various treatment options available. He never rushed us, never spoke in vague terms, and never made us feel like “just another case.” Instead, he took the time to truly educate us—so we could make thoughtful, evidence-based decisions that felt right for Silver and for our family.

What meant the most to us was how deeply personal his care felt. He was willing to speak with us after hours, consistently followed through, and made it clear through his actions that he genuinely cared about Silver—not just as a patient, but as a beloved member of our family. During moments when we felt overwhelmed and scared, his calm guidance and empathy made all the difference.

It is rare to find a veterinarian whose practice is so clearly driven by passion rather than business. Dr. Streiber cares for animals as if they were his own, and we will always be grateful for the compassion, time, and heart he showed Silver and our family. We trust him completely and recommend him without hesitation.“

“I always feel very good about leaving Ellie here, I know they take good care of her. What I like best is that they recognize that all dogs have different temperaments and take that into consideration when caring for them.“

“Hugo, the dog stay at your facility was wonderful. He was much more socialized now to other dogs and people than he was before he went. I can’t thank you enough.“

“Cami and the entire team at A Bark Idea are absolutely wonderful! We’ve used them for daycare, boarding, and training for our two young pups, Solei and Harry, and they have been an incredible support in getting them set on the right path to good doggy behavior. The whole team is so kind, knowledgeable, and patient. Knowing our pups are in such loving, capable hands for a day, an overnight stay, or training gives us complete peace of mind. Highly recommend!“

“Very good care with my babydog each time I go in for whatever reason. Front desk personnel have always been polite and efficient. Love this office!“

“Dianne was a pleasure to work with! She made herself very available to us and was sympathetic to our needs. Very knowledgeable and really helped us overcome some serious obstacles with our Yorkie puppy! Would absolutely recommend!“

“Dr. Wong gave a very thorough exam and thoughtfully answered all my questions taking the time needed.“

“Lilian is a godsend. My dog had an unplanned TPLO surgery on both legs and hadn’t gone to the bathroom in days post surgery.
Lilian was able to get my pup to use the restroom and taught me how to use the equipment and techniques that worked.
She was available for consult when I had questions as well. I’m so grateful for her help and to now be connected to her.“

“When I first brought my dog ​​Comet to daycare, I was deeply impressed by the staff's warm welcome and kindness; ever since then, I have felt completely at ease leaving him in their care, including for overnight stays. Comet also seems to look forward to it every time. Thank you to all the staff.“

“Glen is very down to earth and very accommodating. We had to unexpectedly extend our dog's stay by 3 more days. He even gave me a discount for that unforseen event. Although, our dog was extra dirty when we got him, nevertheless, he seemed unharmed.“

“They did a great job, my dog is happy after three hours of serviceThey took photos and videos during the bath, haircut and spa“

“Toya and Kevin saved us! We brought our 7 year old rescue pittie to them after she attacked a smaller dog and they worked a miracle. Not only did they train our dog, but they also trained us. After her formal day training, we continued to do saturday classes so that we were able to be consistent.

We owe a lot to them!“

“Dingo Doggies is unlike any other boarding and training facility in LA. Renée has truly created a one of a kind space that is structured, safe, and reliable. I have been taking my dog to Dingo Doggies for over four years now and it is truly one of the best finds! I just wish I would have found her sooner. Renee is so knowledgeable and has really helped my dog and me come a long way. We are always learning and improving under her tutelage. She has the dogs’ best interest always in mind. The staff is also caring, well trained, and very experienced. Renée has put a lot of time into every aspect of Dingo Doggies. Thank you for creating such an amazing dog training, daycare, and boarding facility. I don’t know what I would have done without you!“

“Amazing dog trainer, using holistic approaches. Not only trains but also boards and socializes. Amazing, brilliant. Highly recommend“

“Great experience at West Coast Grooming Academy! The team is very friendly and professional, and they truly care about the dogs, my dog looked amazing after the grooming. I’m very satisfied with the service
Highly recommended!“

“Smaller location but very helpful and friendly staff. Store will order anything for you that they do not have in stock and offer local delivery or store pickup.“

“I can’t say enough good things about my experience. The professionalism, knowledge, and dedication to producing trustworthy, legitimate, genetically sound dogs truly stands out. The training is top-tier, and the care put into temperament and structure is clear in every interaction.

The facility is beautiful — spacious, secure, and designed to give dogs the best possible environment to learn and grow. You can see the passion and commitment behind everything they do, from breeding to training to addressing behavioral needs.

I am especially thankful for the bond I now share with my K9. That connection, confidence, and trust wouldn’t be what it is without their guidance and expertise. It’s been an incredible journey, and I’m deeply grateful.

If you’re looking for breeding, training, or behavioral support from people who truly care and know what they’re doing, I highly recommend them.“

“I have trained my two dogs all American and Sheltie. I was showing for many years with a few dog trainers. Very Happy with all Training and friends with the club.“

“The Puppy Academy in Hermosa Beach has been crucial in my family’s journey in raising a puppy. We have a Doberman Pinscher puppy who started at the Puppy Academy around almost 3 months old. They built a structured routine for our puppy which set the perfect foundation for good habits and positive behavior.
Our puppy learned many things from commands such as sit, stay, proper walking, come here, lay down, place, house.
I think the most important thing built though was the potty training and the socialization provided. Puppies NEED early socialization to develop into confident and friendly dogs. We have happy to see our puppy grow (and still growing) into a friendly, brave “teenager” puppy. Friendly play style!
A Doberman is a high energy and demanding dog breed. Normally I would train our puppy fully on my own as I did with prior Dobermans I had in the past, but due to demanding work hours and obligations, I am so grateful for the opportunity The Puppy Academy provided during these critical socialization and learning periods. They train and interact with the puppy all day until I pick him up after work. Then I can continue with following their training methods throughout our time at home and on the weekends. It made it so easy! I wish I had the Puppy Academy all along for my prior dogs too.

I’m impressed with the friendly staff and how well they did with our puppy! Even though our puppy has completed the program and graduated, we have still seen ease with the teenager/adolescent phase and training on our own again because of all the Puppy Academy set up for us. Thank you!!“

“Dee is an amazing dog coach and our dog wouldn't be as well trained without her. She puts care into everything she does with our little pup.“

“I just want to give a shoutout to Marissa for going ABOVE AND BEYOND today to help me get a 40lb bag of cat litter into my car. I am 39 weeks pregnant and I didn't even have to ask for assistance. She automatically asked me if she could help. It really made my day. It also made my experience at the store safer. Thank you!“

“Excellent customer service and excellent grooming. Affordable and overall terrific quality.“

“Due to a last minute logistical error, we took our furry babies to Venice Dog Boarding. It was our first time leaving our babies here so we were very apprehensive, but from the moment we met Jan, my wife felt so much better and our dogs were very relaxed. Our babies were well taken care of, Jan was very nice and took very good care of them. You can tell she loves dogs. We will definitely be leaving our furry babies in her care from now on.“

“1st place to ever love and care for my baby floof ? just as I do.. thank you especially to the groomers for tender love and care to my doggo?❤️..my baby hates going to petco and petsmart since they hurt and neglected him..but Brent-Air showed him so much love and being able to trust them??“

“Dr Brooks and her staff are very caring, devoted and effective. My dog Mocha had a medical problem with confusing symptoms that VCA ER was not able to get to the bottom of unless we waited all night. I called Mar Vista Vet and they got him in very quickly and worked around my schedule, made sure to thoroughly rule out high acuity medical issues such as pancreatitis, and when my dog left we knew his symptoms where not related to anything other than his back aches. When Mocha left Mar Vista Vet he was happy and feeling better. Thank you Dr Brooks and Mar Vista Vet staff for being there for Mocha!“

“The clinic was reasonably priced. Joi and the clinic staff were so helpful, patient and friendly with my grand-dog.“
