Pet Boarding Training near Fountain Valley

“Brookfield Pet Hospital is an iconic local business. It’s small enough to feel like family and access from parking is easy. The staff schedules appointments six days a week and with several excellent veterinarians aboard (we’ve seen Dr David and Dr Nguyen recently), they will see you and your pets ASAP.<br><br>I’ve been taking pets to Brookfield for more than two decades. All of the vets and every one of their excellent staff members have shown compassion to pets and people.“

“Sit Means Sit has done wonders with our dog. We have a Cane Corso who can be a handful. When we were at a point of giving up, Chris talked with me on his possibilities and what a huge difference consistent training can make for us all to be a happy family. When our dog returned home, I could tell he enjoyed his training. He is a beautiful, powerful and intelligent dog that truly learned the fundamentals of his training. I strongly recommend Sit Means Sit. The trainers are loving and firm. They provide great leadership and train you and your family on how to be the best owners that your dog deserves.“

“My husband and I have been searching for over a year to find a place to board our 12 year old pup, Katniss. Our girl is a Lab/Boxer mix, great temperament but some physical issues due to being hit by a car before we adopted her. During the pandemic she was not socialized for a while. Since she has some physical issues, she is better with smaller dogs even though she is about 70 pounds. We drove by Bark Collective and decided to stop in. Dan met us and was extremely cordial as we discussed our concerns about our pup. He recommended we bring her in for a half day. One of the things that impressed us was that dogs were not grouped by size temperament. When we went to pick Katniss up, Dan said she did great. She was calm, tail wagging and seemed to really enjoy her morning at Bark. We decided to go away for a few days. We received photos every day of our smiling girl! She was relaxing in the sun (one of her favorite things to do), smiling and comfortable. The daily pictures were such a blessing. Everyone at Bark Collective is kind and it's oblivious that they truly care about our precious pups. Thank you, Dan, Jillian and your amazing staff for taking such good care of our girl. We are looking forward to planning another vacation and bringing Katniss in for day visits.“

“We recently had the pleasure of boarding our dog Margo at Paws at Play and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! From the moment we walked through the doors, it was clear that this was a place where pets are treated like family. Jonathan and Melissa were incredibly welcoming and attentive, taking the time to get to know our dog Margo and understand her unique needs and preferences. Their genuine love for animals was evident in every interaction. We were provided with nightly updates, including photos and videos, which put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip without any worries. The facility itself was immaculate, spacious, and equipped with all the amenities a pet could dream of. Our dog enjoyed plenty of playtime in the secure, well-maintained outdoor areas, and I could tell she was having a blast with the other dogs. The individual attention she received during play sessions made her feel right at home. What truly set Paws at Play apart was their unwavering commitment to providing a safe and stimulating environment. Jonathan, Melissa and the entire staff's professionalism and compassion towards dogs compelled us to write this review and share our wonderful experience with others. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Paws at Play!“

“The only place I have taken my furbabies for over 17 yrs. My furdiva will be 11 next month and thus is the only place I will take her for her care. Great prices, staff is super friendly, clinic is always clean, and although I have never left my furbabies overnight, I have seen many being picked up/dropped off. Pet parents seem very pleased and furbabies very content.. I have actually seen staff, with what I assume, are borders, in pet park/area at corner of parking. It is safe for a lil playtime with my furdiva and always clean as well, Always have and always will refer family and friends..“

“Stacey is the OC dog whisperer. She was fantastic with our new puppy. Before having a profession dog trainer come over I was extremely frustrated on what to do with a brand new puppy. I had no idea what to do with a new puppy , how to care for her or even know how to play with a her. We purchased the 4 sessions with Stacey and it was a GAME CHANGER for me and our pup. Stacey guided us on what to do and how to achieve our ultimate goal with our dog. She was punctual, kind, caring and very patient. We would have our entire family attend the secessions so we would all be on the same page. Our fur baby is thriving!!!! Now that she is 6months old and having 4 amazing trainings under her, I am soooooo happy. She is very obedient. Plus I love that I can go back to Stacey's follow up emails if I'm having any question. We love Stacey and our puppy do it ;) Highly recommend“

“Linda was such a great help with our new puppy Coco! We did both group and private sessions and she really helped guide us in training coco with items such as recall, drop it and socialization. In the beginning, Coco had severe separation anxiety and she gave us tips that really changed his behavior for the better. Linda gave us a solid training foundation and Coco is off to a a great start. Thank you Linda!“

“CLA has not only been a rockstar in training my Bernedoodle, Dakota but has taught me so much as well. If your looking for a dog trainer look no more. CLA is where it's at! Their dedication & commitment to your pup & family is everything I've been looking for. When you are away on vaca or wherever they keep you updated with photos, videos & a detailed report of your dogs day. I can't wait to keep watching Dakota grow in the hands of CLA.“

“Dr. Weber is absolutely amazing!!!! He is so knowledgeable and ethical. Hands down best vet around!!! Thank you so much for all your great recommendations and for taking the best care of my fur babies Odin & Baldur Boo!!! ??❤️?“

“The Hounds Grounds is AMAZING! I have been bringing my puppy to the Hounds Grounds ever since he was 12 weeks old and he is now 3 years old! They helped me so much with him! They provided puppy classes, obedience training and refresher trainings! I also take my dog there three days a week for doggy day care and he absolutely LOVES it! The trainers at the Hounds Grounds are amazing and do such a thorough, loving job training the dogs and taking care of them. I feel so lucky to have found the Hounds Grounds - this is my dog's home away from home and he is taken care of so very well! I highly recommend the Hounds Grounds!“

“Humberto is such an amazing humble person! He took in my year old German Mix for 2 weeks came back totally new❤️now we’re both happy and the training will never end! He was patient with the both of us, and explain detail by detail what was going to change and leaving me some homework! I trust him 100% recommend him to everyone!“

“They're very understanding and kind to pets they do their best to try to accommodate you. I went for my pets last moments and they were kind and I appreciate that greatly. I wish I had found them sooner. Definitely recommend.“

“I had a great experience at this veterinary practice. The staff were very nice to me and I believe my cat got quality care. I recommend this business and I plan to return.“

“Bob understands all kinds of dogs and has given me lots of ideas for socializing my pup.“

“I have two bull dogs who are my world. Naturally like any fur baby parent you want to know you are putting your dogs in good hands. There are no safer , knowledgable, caring and professional hands than Hayleys! My boys have had daily walks and also boarded with Hayley for several nights whilst we were away. Not only were they looked after exceptionally well, Hayley gave me daily text and photos on how they were doing. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to look after my babies! I can’t recommend Hayley enough! If you want peace of mind that your dogs are being looked after as well as you look after them, Hayley is your girl!“

“Paul Goduti is a skilled dog trainer. He helped me train my German shepherd to be a Diabetic alert Dog. Paul makes house calls. He really cares . Paul has worked with the LA K-9 unit. This guy gets dogs .“

“OC Canine Coaching was an excellent experience for us and our puppy. I've worked with several dog trainers over many years with my own dogs and with fosters as a volunteer with a rescue. Bryndon is the first I've worked with that I would without hesitation continue to work with and refer. He is creative and helped 2 puppy parents with different styles be successful and confident. 20 minutes into our initial consultation I was comfortable committing to working with Bryndon. He is professional, fully engaged, and showed an immediate impact during the consultation. Bryndon's approach with the human and dog is excellent. No aversive techniques. He taught us how to read our puppy's signals and respond.“

“This is the best barn and training facility in Orange County! I'd never have my horse with anyone but Kayla because her professional passion flows over into such tender, loving, care to all of her horses on premises. I've learned so much as an equestrian and horse ownership under her tutelage and guidance. The facility is seriously The Ritz for our ponies!“

“Mariela and her team are amazing. Whether you need a dog walker on a regular basis or just for a short time while you are on vacation, they all do a great job. Every walker takes the time with your dog that you hope someone would do while you are away. Every concern I ever have is always addressed and our needs have always been met. Could not ask for more of someone who is taking care of my dog when I am not able to. Thank you for everything!“

“A very POSITIVE experience for me and Reilly, our 12 month Standard Poodle :)Initial concerns were leash pulling and behavior on leash with distractions (other dogs, bunnies, etc).Ryan also identified that Reilly exhibited signs of fearful dog in regards to new people (their approach) and new equipment.Regardless of the scenario, Ryan was ALWAYS patient, calm, assertive and kind to us. His training techniques and personality make learning fun for both human and canine. Not only FUN but EFFECTIVE training.Reilly is walking like a gentleman on leash even with his favorite distractions and we are making good progress with overcoming his fears.A huge THANK YOU to Ryan for sharing your passion for dogs with us. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!Also a special shout out to Zeus, you are the best distraction ever!Tricia S.“

“We LOVE this place! We just got back from our third doggie swim session and my pups are super happy, enriched, and passed out for well deserved naps. The staff is amazing, my female dog is a very nervous girl and they are fantastic with her.“

“Trace is excellent with pets, very thorough and efficient follows up is a perfect replacement for when you can't be there! Always makes the pets have fun and they always learn something new, Like how to enjoy other puppies in and their life being an animal.“

“I've been coming to Tustin Care Animal Hospital for about 5 1/2 years. I can't say enough about how much we really like Dr. Deena Leong and this veterinary hospital. My first encounter was a consultation for them to spay my GSD. I arrived with a long list of questions I had compiled from several veterinary professionals I know out of state and Dr. Leong answered every question to my complete satisfaction and took the time to show me around the entire hospital. My girls spay surgery and recovery was flawless. I really like that they promote "whole food diets" of raw or home cooked diets. They do have several brands of commercial pre-made that they can sell you, or they're happy to discuss alternatives with you as well. They offer Thimerosal free Rabies vaccines, and titer testing for Parvo/Distemper. They offer alternative therapies such as Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Canine Massage. This is truly as Holistic or Traditional an office as you want it or need it to be. Dr. Leong is so knowledgeable, patient, and kind and really makes you feel like she is your PARTNER in your pet's well-being and life. We are so lucky to have found her. I refer all my friends and neighbors to her. I manage an online Holistic pet group and I've referred many of our members to her as well.“

“Leilani- thank you so much for the wonderful trail ride on June 16, 2024 that my boyfriend requested for his birthday! It was super fun, beautiful and very interesting. Your customer focus, riding experience, and horse knowledge really showed -as you carefully sized and fitted each of us with safety helmets, introduced us to horses you'd selected matching our skill level, helped us mount up and basic " left, right, walk and stop" commands. The trail ride was incredible - so much to see riding through the stable and seeing some of the 400 horses living on the 25 acre equestrian site, then riding through the extensive urban forest with so many beautiful flowers and trees, and then down down by the lake. Thank you for creating a beautiful memory!!“

“Tustana has been keeping our family's cats healthy and happy for decades! The doctors and staff have changed through the years, but all have been knowledgeable and caring. All of our cats lived to be Seniors of at least 15, and our sweet Penny lived to be almost 21! It is evident that the folks who work at Tustana are animal lovers. We are grateful to them for the excellent care they've given our furry family members through the years!“
