Pet boarding/training near Pompton Plains

“I can’t say enough amazing things about Gloria and the staff at Besties For Paws. I don’t know if I left a review already but I’m leaving another one if I did lol my baby boy Brock loves it there and he’s always happy when he comes home and tired, which is a blessing because that means he is getting his exercise and playing with the other dogs. The facility is very clean. They do activities with the dogs and they really do care about the Dogs. I highly recommend anyone that needs a drop off daycare, regular daycare and pet transport to go to Besties For Paws.“

“If you're looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and their behavior, I can't recommend Tom enough. My dog struggled with anxiety, and from our very first session, Tom took the time to understand his personality and what was triggering his stress.

Tom didn't just train my dog—he taught me how to better communicate with him and build his confidence. The techniques were practical, positive, and easy to incorporate into our daily routine. Over time, I've seen such an incredible transformation. My dog is calmer, more confident, and so much happier.

Tom's patience, knowledge, and genuine love for animals are evident in everything he does. I'm incredibly grateful for the difference he's made in both my dog's life and mine. Thank you, Tom, for helping us enjoy life together with so much less anxiety!“

“My dog gets so excited when we pull in the driveway of the facility. We have done the beginners 5 session and have already seen improvement in our dog’s behavior. He also uses up a ton of energy in the 4 hours so he comes home calm and relaxed. Met with some of the trainers and they were knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the program. We can’t wait to see the progress he makes as we continue.“

“The absolute best! We rescued a Husky with the Vets help! She is the best vet in the whole world!“

“Today was my first time getting my dog groomed here, and I absolutely loved the experience! My dog seemed even happier too. I really appreciated how they provided examples of how much hair you can have taken off—it made everything so much easier. I’m so glad I found this place, and we will definitely be back! ?✨“

“Ramapo Valley Animal Hospital has been such a comfort to our family during a very difficult time. Our dog fought IMHA for three weeks, and throughout that battle Dr. Katara(especially) and the entire staff were consistently kind, patient, and compassionate.

They took the time to explain what was happening and what each step meant in a way we could actually understand. Even when the situation was heartbreaking, they treated our dog with so much care and dignity, and they treated us with empathy and respect as we tried to make the best decisions we could. Saying goodbye on January 5 was devastating, but the compassion and warmth we were shown made an unbearable day a little more manageable. Thank you, Dr. Katara and team, for your professionalism, your kindness, and for being there for us through every step.“

“The best doggie care 🤗 my little guy loves it 😉
I trust this place. Place is very clean, and well organized. Thank you 🙏 The staff is amazing. 5 stars ⭐“

“For more than 2 years, Laurie and her trusted team of walkers have been caring for my dogs… multiple walks a week, but more than that, loving care… with photos, observations and updates … I can’t thank them or recommend them enough. I am replacing and they are the one part of my time in NJ I will miss the most. My dogs too… I fear I will never find anyone who so lovingly and responsibly care for my dogs. So grateful!“

“Pat has been an amazing mentor as we navigated the adolescence stage with our mini Dachshund as first time dog parents. He is honest, professional, knowledgeable, and humorous which we appreciated greatly. We attended all of the group puppy classes at larger pet stores and did not see the behavior changes we were looking for until we started sessions with Pat. We loved that he allowed us to bring in other family members who also spend a lot of time with our dog so they could be trained on how to appropriately handle him too. Working with Pat has given us confidence and optimism that we needed as first time dog parents. 10/10 recommend.“

“Lynne is not only very knowledgeable on puppy training, but she also gives you insights to food, training tools, s well as where you can take your puppy from here. Her class is fun and informative. Lynne is very professional and makes everyone comfortable. I highly recommend anyone with a new puppy go to this class even if you are a seasoned dog owner like me. It is a great reminder and helpful tool.“

“Huge shout-out to Frank ? He took the time to work with us one-on-one, made training fun and easy to understand, and you can truly tell he loves what he does. If you’re looking for a dog trainer who cares as much as you do, I can’t recommend Frank enough! ??“

“Simmone was incredible! After bringing our sweet 2 1/2 month old chocolate lab puppy home, we realized we needed all the help we could get with training! We were able to get in touch with her and started training not even 2 weeks later. The consultation she does before training starts is amazing. She came in and we discussed all the things we were looking for with training and she created an action plan specific to his breed and our lifestyle! Duke adored her and immediately took to all the training. She is incredibly knowledgeable of all breeds and was able to give us wonderful and helpful recommendations for socialization activities, daycare options, and toys! If I could give her more stars, I would! Our Duke loves her so much, he finally conquered going down the stairs just to greet her with kisses! We cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to have her back for advanced training sessions!“
