Pet Sitting near Campbell

“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.“

“Couldn’t be happier with the expertise and professional of my chinchilla care here. I would fully recommend going here to look for adoptions here!“

“Riley loved her stay with Jody and loved playing with woody. We have confidence and peace of mind with Jody and are looking forward to future visits. Thank you Jody ?“

“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.“

“Our dog Zephyr loves going there. The first time she was a little hesitant and had never been to a dog daycare but after being there one day she gets excited when we pull into the parking lot and has a great time. After a day there she comes home tired and sleeps through the night even though she's still an active puppy. So it's great for her to get some exercise and socialization too. Great experience.“

“Urban Dog House is a great training school and I highly recommend them.

Both Dexter and Steve truly care about the dog's being compliant, happy in their compliance, with fewer and ultimately no corrections. This philosophy is reinforced in all their training regardless of who you work with or whether you do private, public, or pack walks. You get the sense the trainers really care about your dog and they care about teaching you so BOTH parties are happy and successful.

Some highlights:

-They offer so many opportunities to train your dog (group classes, private classes, swimming, agility, pack walks....) I have done group classes (currently level 2), private lessons, and have participated in a pack walk. I appreciate the real life settings to put into practice what has been learned in group classes. Additionally, the private lessons I have done with Steve have been very effective and really encouraging.

- Dexter and Steve are willing to work with different training tools (flat collar, martingale collar, prong collar, e-collar...). I really value this. They don't force a "type" on you. They also care about the tools being used correctly and that your dog is not being over corrected. I see consistently that they care about your dog and want to make sure communication from the handler to the dog is clear, appropriate, and effective. I think this is super important and I think Dexter and Steve do a great job with this.

-They welcome all family members to participate in classes or pack walks (or whatever). It is important for family members/handlers to hear the same message and have the opportunity to practice and ask questions. Not all training facilities allow this and I am thankful Urban Dog House not only allows it, but encourages it. My daughter has done most of the classes with me and therefore the training at home has been more effective.

Some notes:
-Classes/pack walks etc... tend to run over the allotted time. You can always leave when you need to, but I just plan cushion in my schedule.

-The trainers talk a lot (something I notice about most dog trainers :-) and sometimes I wish we practiced more, but what they share is valuable.

Bottom line - I am learning, my dog is learning, and our relationship has significantly improved because of the training we have received at Urban Dog House.

Give them a try - I believe you will be glad you did :-)“
