Pet boarding/training near Valley Village

“They really know their stuff

Great to have multiple opinions compared to traditional vets“

“I have been using boarding services with The Pawground since 2022. They have always been wonderful and I trust the staff with my previous dog. Recently, I had a family emergency and had to board my dog last minute. They were so lovely and accommodating during a very emotional and stressful time. It gave me such peace of mind to know that he was being taken care of while I traveled. I also love getting photo updates of him playing with all of the friends he makes there.
I also use their grooming services and Courtney has been amazing. He always comes out looking fantastic and she knows exactly how to take care of him during the grooming process to make him feel more comfortable. Definitely check out the Pawground for your boarding and grooming needs.“

“My dog had so much fun and they took such great care of her. Been boarding her here for years!“

“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.“

“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.“

“I've been taking my dog to daycare here for a few months now and he loves it! Everyone is so nice and attentive. Asher comes home exhausted. They post the most adorable pictures on Instagram. So glad I found Paw Haven!“

“I was fortunate to have been referred to VMC by my neighbor. Both of my dogs love to come to this vet due to the warmth and care from the front desk staff and wonderful doctors. This veterinary experience here is so refreshing and comforting. You truly feel they care about every pet that comes through their doors. Dr Steve and Dr Tenser are amazing - from bedside manner, patience with owner questions, explaining issues and options, and making my dogs feel comfy:).“

“We have boarded our German Shepherd here many times and he loves it. They have always taken good care of him and we enjoy seeing video of him while we are away.“

“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!“

“Our dogs love it here! The staff is always super friendly and they go above and beyond to make our dogs feel at home!“

“Our cat Freddie was going through a rough time and needed several appointments in one week. Los Feliz Small Animal Hospital was able to see him quickly each time, and the staff was so wonderful and caring. We are incredibly grateful for their kindness and attention.“

“Finally found a good vet for my pet after numerous bad experiences with others. From the front desk staff to the doctor and techs, everyone is super nice, patient, and really gives you the best care for your pet. Recommend this clinic over any other! Chak de!“

“The best groomer in LA! Consistently does an amazing job and so caring to my pup! The groomers are also the sweetest to her.“

“This is the first time I've ever paid for dog training in my life. All my other dogs I trained myself, but now I can't devote the time.

I adopted a new dog from the pound, and immediately it was clear she needed training. She was hindering my sales calls and I needed to have her taken away and trained ASAP. I searched around for someone who could take her that day.

I found Delta K9 and on a Sunday met with the owner and head trainer Mike. He assessed Kira, said they would be able to take her that day, and they would work primarily on leash work, and general commands like sit, stay, place, and heel.

I paid them $5k and they said it would take 3-4 weeks. Kira ended up needing a little longer and they had her for a total of 5.5 weeks and didn't charge me any additional money.

They sent me weekly video updates on her progress. Andy, her trainer, and I just had the first of our 3 integration trainings. You need to go spend time with them in person 3 times before you take your dog home so they can train you on what they trained them. Andy also said he would be able to meet me in my home for the 3rd and final integration session so he can introduce her to my cats. He didn't have to offer that and I am very impressed. With the quality of service I have received. We lived near each other and so I wouldn’t assume this is standard. But if you’re cool with the trainers they may for you.

The front desk women Marium and Adel have been extremely helpful whenever I have a question and are very responsive. During business hours I usually received a reply within 2 hours.

I would highly recommend you to have your dog trained here. I'm going to return in a month or so, so that they can do e-collar training.

Be aware that if paying by card there is a 4% surcharge that goes to pay for their credit card processing. I don't know if they accept checks but they do Venmo and other cash payments like that.“

“We enjoyed our experience and especially appreciated the opportunity for our little guy to socialize with other dogs and people. His confidence around new friends has definitely improved, and he always looked forward to class. We also picked up some very helpful training tips and exercises to continue practicing at home. Thank you for helping our little Bruce grow and gain positive social experiences!“

“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.“

“We’ve trusted Dog-e-Den for years for daycare and occasional overnight boarding for our dog, and our experience has been so positive that we haven’t considered anywhere else.

We like that they’re so careful about screening for temperament and health - they’ve even been the first to let us know when a vaccine is late before our vet!

Everyone we’ve encountered there has been so kind - especially Krystal - who makes me certain that our pup is good hands whenever I drop her off.“

“I forgot to take Snoopy’s photo from his visit today BUT he looks so handsome with his cut and cute fourth of July paw bandanna.
Great prices friendly staff. The shop is always clean on the inside and smells nice .“

“Huber did such an amazing job with Sage’s haircut! She looks absolutely adorable and I couldn’t be happier with how she turned out. He really took his time and got everything just right. The place itself is also super cute and has such a fun, welcoming vibe. Sage came out looking like a little superstar. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Sunset Barquis is such a wonderful place, our dog always looks so happy in photos, we love the updates and they even give her walks every time she goes. We are so grateful for them!“

“We have two chihuahua mix rescues who have both benefited greatly from their training with Alexandra. One of our dogs was reactive, and its now much easier to bring him on walks as well as have visitors to our home. The other was quite skittish which made training on our own tricky. Alexandra really helped us navigate his needs and build up his confidence. Both of our dogs are more confident and much better citizens since they started training. Also, while we originally did training in person and weren't quite sure how well virtual training would go, Alexandra navigates Zoom training remarkably and we don't feel like we're losing anything from not having in-person sessions.“

“I had such a positive experience at Topanga Veterinary Clinic\. I was able to get a same\-day appointment, which was such a relief when my fur baby needed to be seen\. Their hours are incredibly convenient, especially during an emergency or unexpected situation\.

A special thank you to Limidee, Cheyenne, Leilene, and Dr. G. They were all so caring, compassionate, and gentle with my fur baby\. They took the time to make us feel comfortable and treated my pet with so much kindness throughout the visit\.

The facility was clean and well\-maintained, and I also appreciated the financial options they offer, which made the experience much less stressful\.

Overall, I had an excellent experience and highly recommend Topanga Veterinary Clinic to anyone looking for a caring veterinary team\. Thank you all for taking such wonderful care of my fur baby\!“

“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!“

“I cannot say enough good things about this veterinary hospital. They are so friendly and kind and so efficient from staff Yvette and Samantha and Dr. Girgis what a wonderful caring place to bring your pets.“

“I’ve tried several other trainers before for behavior training and they all focused on obedience which helped but didn't solve the problem. My dog, Jaxon was still reactive and lunging. I hired Marth and it was different because the first thing he focused on was teaching me everything I needed to know about Jaxon’s behavior and I how can make changes at home and everyday life and things improved dramatically and now I can walk Jaxon off leash and he ignores everyone around us and stays focused on me. I would definitely recommend him for all of your training issues with your doggy’s. His prices are fair and a huge plus with the social classes he offers.“

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

“I have 2 dogs that have been in training with CaliK9 trainer Devin for the last 2.5 months. We still have a lot of work to go, but the tools and guidance we have been provided have shown day and night difference in some of the things I was struggling with. My dogs are showing more engagement and focus, and our walks have gotten so much easier. The approach is firm but still kind and fair to the dog. My dogs are middle aged, stubborn working breeds so they have some long standing bad habits that’s going to take work to unlearn. Devin has been a great help and knowledgeable source for us. 10/10 very happy with my decision to sign up for training with CaliK9“
