Pet Boarding Training near Santa Clara

“Jimi has been a godsend for my pack of pups… she’s helped me with my pocket pup 5lb yorkie mix as well as my 130 lb cane corso and my 70 lb am staff mix…. She’s not only extremely informative but she also inspired me and brought out the pack leader in me . I would trust her with my furbabies implicitly and I highly recommend anyone looking for a real dog behaviorist to give Jimi a call you won’t regret it!“

“This place is a gem!! I feel so lucky to have found a pet villa. Our dog has anxiety and they handled Cali with such love, care, and dog competence. I am really grateful to have found this place. It is head and shoulders above the other dog hotels I've toured - they care about the dogs in a way that is so noticeable. and makes me feel calm and happy when our girl Cali, is there.“

“When my dog, Chase, and I started agility classes here, he was about 9 months old at the time and would barely listen to me and was constantly pulling on the leash and doing whatever he pleased. He is a lab mix and it was exhausting trying to reel him in all the time. Fortunately, Dieuwke had the expertise and patience to work with us! Now a little over a year old, Chase is finally calm and listening to me even around distractions. He made significant progress on the obstacles and we had a lot of fun bonding while working through the course, but most importantly, the improvement in Chase’s behavior has been night and day. I am so grateful that I signed him up for agility classes (we have done both beginner and intermediate) at Orion Dog Training and plan to sign Chase up for more classes in the future! He’s one happy, tired pup after every class!“

“We cannot recommend Dan enough. He's the best they come. He teaches *us* how to train our dog rather than focusing on directly training our dog himself, which is 100x more effective because we're with our pup every day, and Dan isn't (though we wish he could be!). Dan is incredibly effective, supportive, knowledgeable, and generous. We referred him to a friend who also only had glowingly positive things to say. Thank you Dan!!!! So glad to be working with you.“

“5 Stars – The Best Place for Your Pup!
Urban Dog House is by far the best place for your pet! We’ve been taking Cali here for over 5 years now, and it’s the only place we truly trust. Steve and his team are amazing with dogs — they genuinely care and know what they’re doing.

We started with group lessons when Cali was just a puppy, learning obedience (and honestly, they trained us just as much as her, haha!). As she grew up and we began traveling, Urban Dog House became her second home. Their daycare and boarding staff always keep Cali happy, healthy, and active — even teaching her how to swim during the summer!

They go above and beyond, sending us photos and updates when we’re away so we never have to worry. Thank you, Steve and the whole crew, for being such a wonderful, trustworthy team. You’re not just trainers — you’re family to us and Cali!“

“Puppy socials are the highlight of my puppy’s week, and have been so instrumental in helping her build confidence with dogs and people. Kimberly is so knowledgeable and great with the dogs, and at the end of the day I get a very sleepy puppy :) Highly recommend!“

“RFRD Academy is a great place to take our puppers, i have my boy Max whos 3yrs old and everytime he goes with RFRD academy, he comes back bathed, cleaned and happy. I like the fact that they send updates of him and walk him around town, which is great because he gets his excercise. Also, i love the fact that they have the entire Kennel space Cool and Air Conditioned making it super comfortable for our Boy Max! 5 stars out of 5 for RFRD Family! thank you!!!“

“We feel completely comfortable leaving our dog with Jody. Her house is perfectly set up to host dogs, and she clearly is passionate about working with them. Highly recommend!“

“Working with Mike Hatjes with Bay Area Dog Training has been very rewarding. He customizes the training to your dog, providing constructive guidance and modeling correct practices. The dogs love him, and it is so satisfying to witness their growth and confidence. It is reassuring to develop disciplined, socialized, trained and HAPPY dogs! Working with Mike is well worth it!“

“Snoopy had his first grooming appointment today, and we are extremely pleased with how it went. Crystal did an excellent job, and the other employees were all so friendly.“

“Michelle and Bill are AMAZING! They took great care of the dogs; truly catering to their every need. Michelle even texted pictures during their stay, so I never had to worry! The dogs adore them and will be back to visit them in the future.“

“Kathy has been our trusted and beloved kitty sitter for over 8 years and she's the absolute best! Our 4 cats looks forward to her visits and she always sends updates and beautiful photos of them while we're away. She is such a kind and gentle soul with a deep love and respect for all animals. Knowing she is there to visit and take care of our kitties twice per day while we're away is priceless. We couldn't recommend her more and feel so blessed to have her.“

“Dr Saini, Jay, and staff took care of our dog Lucy. I like Dr. Saini because he spends the first portion just talking to you about your dog and your dogs health and what has been occurring in the past and the present. I like how he takes his time to explain the situation. He is a caring doctor.“

“I took my rescue dog in for her first wellness appointment, which went very well. The office staff is very kind and service is quick. I love how they schedule non-urgent or non -surgery appointments in the morning for the same day.“

“They treat my dogs with patience and kindness and never recommend any unnecessary interventions. Most importantly, My dogs are still happy and healthy in their old age.“

“The grooming here is wonderful! Kristy is always so sweet and helpful and my golden retriever Taz looks brand new after every visit! You can tell they have a heart for animals - we appreciate you!“

“We have been going here since 1960. Many dogs well taken care of. Every Vet we have seen has been great!! Caring and friendly staff and appointments easy to make with just a call.“

“Took the pups here at 16 weeks the schedule and location is convenient and worked well with our daily life. The training tips and techniques were helpful and Erica was patient and kind. We have used this service prior with our Rottweiler and he was the star of the show. Yorkies are a little more stubborn but oh so cute. Definitely recommend every dog needs school.“

“I found a stray cat and bought her to De Anza vet scanning microchip.
The staffs are super friendly and borrowed me a carrier.“

“Have always had a good experience here. It does smell bad in the lobby more often than not and once my dog smelled AWFUL upon picking her up from boarding but....nothing that a bath couldn't fix. Recommend.“

“The customer service was great with Bill and Isaac they both went above and beyond to help with all our questions and helped with information needed to cared for a pet my daughter adopted from someone ,all except for one person a manager with piercing in his ear lobs was very rude unprofessional and really needs help with his customer service his behavior wasn't something for someone of his position and if his behavior was this way to customer kind of makes you think how does he treat his employees something someone should look into other then that experience with him everything else was great with other employees“
