Pet Sitting near West Chester

“Joe and Beth are amazing trainers. The daycare side is great as well. My guy loves it!!“

“Brenda is the owner and the groomer! She is the best in Chester County! I refer all my clients to her! She really gets to know your dog and knows exactly what cut to provide.“

“We have loved Karen’s K9s since stating one of our dogs in daycare in 2018. We’ve since moved twice and live too far for daycare but drive an hour each way to board our 2 dogs. Meg, Steve, Eric, and the rest of the staff are amazing and treat our dogs like their own. The flexibility they offer is also unmatched with always accommodating a last minute drop off, adding an extra day, and being on standby when we were awaiting the arrival of our two human babies. Highly recommend trusting them with your pups!“

“I’ve used What a Good Dog for Manners 1 and 2 with both of my golden retrievers, and I’ve always been so impressed with the entire staff. Every experience has been wonderful. Recently, I scheduled a private training lesson for my two-year-old golden retriever with Mary and Sam, and I truly couldn’t have better things to say about our time together. It was absolutely worth it.

From the very beginning, they took the time to observe and understand the dynamic between me and my dog — even down to watching him get out of the car. In just a short amount of time, they were able to read us so well and give incredibly helpful, thoughtful feedback on how to support his impulsiveness, keep him more engaged, and build a stronger connection during walks.

I’m a hands-on, visual learner, and they went above and beyond to teach and educate me on reactive behaviors, especially around pulling and jumping. They introduced us to the Gentle Leader, which has been absolutely game changing for our walks and has set both me and my dog up for so much more success.

My dog walker came to the session as well, and Mary and Sam were so patient, encouraging, and nonjudgmental with all of us. Their knowledge, calm energy, and willingness to explain the “why” behind everything made the entire experience truly outstanding.

I will definitely be booking another session in December or January and highly recommend working with Mary, Sam, and the entire What a Good Dog team.“

“My girl loves it here, and we love seeing the fun pics from here day. Keep going here even though we move twice as far away as when we started.“

“Jen is amazing with our dog Ralph who was quite an anxious dog. We also now have a puppy and Jen has been visiting twice a day to play and let him out. This has helped us immensely. Jen is very professional and so friendly. Our dogs absolutely love her ⭐️“

“Megan and her team are the best in terms of taking care of my active border collies! The dogs love them.The team is very reliable; I know I can depend on them taking great care of my boys while we are away. They care for my dog's with love and attention. BTW, they are especially adept at handling with one of my dogs who can be reactive toward the other one in the house. They are compassionate and have the appropriate expertise to deal with any physical or behavioral issues. ?“
