Pet Boarding Training near Pinole

“Maribel has been very attentive to our dog's needs when we have boarded her at her home. She called us to troubleshoot when our pup was eating very little (a bit of away-from-home anxiety) and went above and beyond to entice her to eat with some extra treats. It's great to know the dogs get beautiful walks in the woods, and to feel they are in such good care.“

“We did the one on one private training package with Anthony for our 16 weeks old doberman. He utilized straight forward technic and very patient with us. Not only our dog has improved her obedience skills significantly, we as dog owners, also have gained so much knowledge from the training sections, which will benefit us for the lifetime! Thank you Anthony at PowerHouseK9. Highly recommended!“

“Highly recommended to board your cats! julie and her team Jules, Lexi & Waddy provided outstanding services to my cat. Superb staff that provided lots of TLC to my cat. The rooms are spacious and clean! My cat has plenty of room to move around. Julie is so good-hearted and flexible! She provided timely emails and pics during my cat stays at her cat hotel! Thank YOU Julie!!!“

“We love Metro Dog! Everyone knows our dog Coltrane by name and greets him like an old friend. He absolutely loves his supervised park trips—he always comes home happy, well-exercised, and energized in the best way.

The team does an amazing job making our pup feel welcome and at ease. Coltrane adores Keyon and the entire staff—they’ve truly become his second family. When we come to pick him up at the end of the day, he insists on saying goodbye with big kisses and joyful tail wags. We’re so grateful to have a place where he feels safe, social, and so loved. Metro Dog is the best!“

“Loved the training that we received for our German Shepherd. Jeff, explains everything so clearly as well as his reasoning. Loved that he does an in home visit and takes us outside to practice what we’re learning. It was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Thanks again for helping us with Zoey!“

“We are so incredibly grateful for NexGen K9 and the impact they’ve had on our rescue dog, Teddy. Teddy is a German Shepherd/Australian Cattle Dog mix who came to us with a lot of anxiety and insecurity, along with signs of reactivity toward other dogs and people. We knew from the start that helping him adjust would take time, patience, and the right guidance — and that’s exactly what we found at NexGen K9.
We chose to do private lessons because we wanted to be hands-on in learning the tools that would best support Teddy, and Samantha was amazing from day one. She truly met us — and Teddy — where we were, with compassion, patience, and professionalism. Her approach was collaborative, thoughtful, and always focused on helping Teddy grow in a way that felt manageable and positive.
Samantha went above and beyond for Teddy. Thanks to her support, Teddy is now far more confident and much less reactive. We’re still working through his anxiety in new environments, but because of the foundation NexGen K9 helped us build, I feel so much more confident in helping him continue to thrive.
We’re beyond thankful that Teddy is part of our family — and that NexGen K9 played such a key role in making that possible.“

“Our pup got his haircut with Cindy. She is amazing. He usually gets a little anxious but he lets her do his paws and hair cut without any trouble. She sent me a message with updates. I would totally recommend her and we'll be back. Thank you so much!“

“After training 4 dogs with Mike of the course of 18 years I can confidently say Mike is the best! If you want to be able to take your dog anywhere and everywhere and get compliments on how well behaved they are, Mike is your guy. We drove from the mid-peninsula to SF every Sunday morning for many weeks and would do it again in a heartbeat.“

“Our goldendoodle was a very stubborn guy. We tried several training programs, which all helped a little, but Isabel at Spectrum Canine helped us train Otis so well that he is now a certified therapy dog! We just had our first solo volunteer day as a canine companion pair and he did so well! He is an amazing family dog - kind, sweet, playful and a good listener. Thank you Isabel and Spectrum Canine.“

“It's a nice place, but my Yodie doesn't like any of those places ?! I believe he had bad experience as a baby and has never left his memory.“

“We came here for the annual vaccination shots. Staff was super friendly and accommodating to my big dog, would highly recommend this place to others.“

“Dr. Kwon focuses on your pet, period. He’s caring, professional and very experienced. Our little (14 yo ?- rescue) Bichon has kidney disease, which Dr. Kwon caught early. As it progresses, Dr. Kwon prescribes effective meds that improve our little guy’s quality of life. Nearly three years later, we’re very grateful for the care and experience that’s allowed us to keep Ray comfortable and living his best life. In addition, the pricing is lower than other vets we’ve used.“
