Pet boarding/training in Philadelphia

“I can not recommend Off Leash enough! I did the 2 week boarding and have been so happy with the results, such a worthwhile investment. If you're on the fence, do it!

My pup stayed with Kim for two weeks. I felt so comfortable leaving her with Kim, and got a ton of updates and pictures throughout. They went for long walks and hikes every day, and had homemade turkey meatballs every day. I always knew what they were working on and what is expected for each command/behavior.

My pup was extremely energetic and about to start prozac for her anxiety. After training she seems so much less anxious and was able to self-regulate and listen rather than being in a hyperactive state all day. After the two weeks and our final training session together, I felt extremely confident in my ability to continue the training given my pup had such a solid foundation and knew all the commands.

This past weekend was the ultimate test as my pup was around several other dogs and about a dozen people. Where she would have previously jumped all over every guest, she patiently laid down and waited to hear the word 'break' before greeting anyone. I am SO proud of her and can't thank Off Leash and Kim enough! It is such a good feeling to trust your dog and give them a bit more freedom to explore.“

“The staff is friendly and accommodating, my dog WILLINGLY goes in which was not a thing at previous salons, and he comes out smelling fresh and clean, overall 10/10.“

“Gave us an appointment to get my cat's rabies vaccine right away, took us in an hour early for the appointment, it was super quick, super friendly, and well kept. Would definitely recommend!“

“We had a great boarding experience with the Collar Club. Our dog stayed for 8 days and Bree was wonderful to work with from beginning to end. She set our minds at ease about boarding our dog with her from our first conversation. We really appreciated how responsive and organized everything was and loved that she sent videos of our dog during the stay. It’s clear that Bree truly cares for the animals under her care. We highly recommend boarding with the Collar Club and will definitely board there again.“

“I've witness Daniel's talent for transforming troubled dogs into well behaved loving pets. There's reason why he one of the best dog trainers in Philadelphia!“

“I was visiting the area for a couple months and the team at Groom and Board has been wonderful. I have a very, very small dog and had no concerns about his safety in their care. They were beyond accommodating. I look forward to coming back and visiting them again soon. I highly recommend!“

“The best place to take your dog I have a rescue pitbull I take there for doggy day care and overnights. he runs through the doors to get inside as fast as he can because he loves it so much. they take good care of your dog ?“

“We have boarded our dog with others over the years, but through a recommendation of a friend we booked with Green Street Animal Care and have been thoroughly satisfied. They are our number one choice when it comes to animal care and boarding for our dog, they take the stress and worry away, went on vacation, and our dog needs to be boarded and she loves it there. It is her second home.“

“We love Wag Days! Our puppy Grace gets so excited at drop off, always has a great day, the staff love her and she loves them.“

“My puppy loves it here. Loves the other dogs and in particular the staff who give him belly rubs all day. Great doggue daycare. Easy to book on their app and they respond quickly.“

“They took good care of our baby tiger and made sure she got the vaccines, medications, and tests she needed. She was comfortable and the staff were very nice us all. Will return.“

“Wonderful! I take my puppy once a week to the day school and it's fantastic. I get sent videos and pictures that are amazing with comments. And best of all he learns things. Great place.“

“What a lovely, well-appointed, welcoming little spot. They were so sweet to my shy, elderly dog on his first visit. I could tell that Miranda was very knowledgeable about canine behavior, but she came across as humble and approachable, and she thoroughly explained the evaluation process. Jimmy Page was well cared for here!“

“Ten star. Wonderful team of compassionate and talented instructors. I look forward to learning more from them. They were also super chill and kind about me bringing my teenager. Thanks from your baby newf- Freddie !!“

“Honest, caring, affordable and well run. Bark Park is a one stop shop for all things dog and they will walk you through everything you need to make your pets experience a good one. Easy booking and automated daily updates keep everyone in the loop on your pups day & progress.“

“In 5 weeks of Day School at the Old City location + an incredible 4 day seminar (with Forrest Micke and Kynology) at OPB’s Farm Dog location, our mystery mutt with an equally mysterious past grew into a less anxious, less fearful, calmer and happier being. Strangers comment on how well trained she is now, but I feel like we’re just getting started!

Thank you Ashlee, Siara, Janet and Leigh for going at Ginger’s pace and teaching us how to safely navigate the world together.

What I used to see as triggers and obstacles are now opportunities to grow through stress!

It’s like the saying goes, “You don’t get the dog you want, you get the dog you need.” And you all have helped me learn through Ginger and deepen our partnership!

For those reading this review - don’t hesitate to seek OPB’s support. Their entire staff is extremely organized, communicative and supportive of your individual needs/goals.

We’ve only had our beloved Ginger for one + year, she is around 6-8 years old, and came with a lot of baggage. If Ginger can be helped, OPB can help any dog in a safe and loving manner!

Thank you all again. Looking forward to continuing sessions, classes and excursions!
Andrea & Ginger“

“SHVH squeezed us in for a tick bite inspection and they were welcoming and never made us feel rushed. The staff are all so kind to our dog and make her feel comfortable & loved.“

“Wonderful! Got sent great pictures of my dogs first day and a report card! I loved everything. And so did the puppy! They even do some training Brick gets the behavioral management add on when he goes for his half days (for puppies) and it works!
I love love the report cards about his progress and photos throughout the day. Great daycare, totally comfortable leaving the puppy there from the first moment we arrived. Brick loves it and they take amazing care of the dogs.“

“The Owner Don truly cares about all the dogs in his business. I am a colleague of his and had contact over a mutual client. Don is professional, passionate about what he does and receptive. Most importantly, he is open minded (they say the only thing 2 trainers agree on is what the 3rd is doing wrong ?) As a fellow trainer and kennel owner, just based off of today's interaction, I would absolutely endorse his program.“
