Pet Boarding Training near Laguna Hills

“We have been going to Dr. Rosete for 17.5 yrs. Our Cairn terrier was seen by him in 2007 as a pup because he offered a low-cost vaccine clinic. I was so impressed by Dr. Rosete, that I switched vets for all 3 of our dogs. Dr. Rosete is by far the most competent, caring, honest vet we have ever been to. I've referred friends and neighbors who tell me that they are also very satisfied. Both Dr. Ernesto Rosete and his daughter, Dr. Christine Rosete, genuinely care about the well being of our pets first and are fair about pricing. The best decision I ever made for the benefit of our pets.“

“I can’t say enough good things about this company! After going through multiple dog walkers on Rover that would get busy and quit I really just wanted to find someone reliable. This company gives me the peace of mind and gives my dog the best walks. We are so much happier now!“

“We worked with Cassie who was absolutely outstanding. Very punctual, supportive, and provided us with the right tools and mindset to help our dog succeed. I very highly recommend Clickstart.“

“I've been going to this clinic for a year with my senior kitties.

General info:
Appointment costs are reasonable if not a bit cheaper than surrounding clinics, which is great.
The clinic is busy, but they're always able to get you in for a sudden appointment if necessary, which I'm grateful for at times when my pets had concerning health issues arise. They always try to accommodate you. There are many vets at the clinic (I've met with at least 4-5), so you'll likely visit different vets each time unless your pet has a health issue, which means you'll see the same vet until it's resolved.
Everyone is friendly and lovely and you don't feel rushed when you have an appointment. *Note: We are the voice for our pets health, so still, make sure you ask all the questions and do whatever you need for your pet, including following up on results for tests, etc.
Because all these vets come from different backgrounds, at this clinic, I've experienced different consultations: vets with firm beliefs and who make immediate diagnoses and vets who advocate doing your own research (which i appreciate) and who consider any and all options before confirming anything. My experiences with most of the vets have been pleasant, but these differences naturally have us inclined toward favoring some vets at the practice more than others.

Personal story:
First, it was an annual exam, then it was my calico's unfortunate diagnosis of chronic kidney disease. Later, my tuxedo kitty was suffering from her mouth and because they didn't have any immediate dental care openings, they insisted upon her being checked by a dental specialist at a specialist clinic and we found she had terminal cancer. I'm grateful they did not make us wait. Her loss hurts us still to this day, but this clinic was very sweet in sending a card with their condolences.

Dr. E:
My calico got pancreatitis soon after that ordeal and she was seen by Dr. E, who is kind, very informative, and dare I say, our favorite vet at the practice. My calico was sent to an internal medicine doctor for specialist care, but despite this and some continued struggles, Dr. E was always thinking of ways to help when we needed it and always patiently answering and clarifying our many, many questions. Since working with Dr. E on maintainance care, our calico has gained weight and is doing very well, even when her chronic kidney disease has slightly progressed. What really helped her get out of lasting pancreatitis symptoms by the end was B12 injections Dr. E prescribed. Due to our many positive experiences with her, we continue to ask for Dr. E and highly recommend her.

In conclusion:
We've gone to this clinic so many times in the course of a year, and every time, the receptionists, vet techs, and vets have been wonderful to our cats and the prices of anything and everything have been fairly decent (highly recommend pet insurance with senior pets though). I would recommend this place for your pet's medical care, especially with Dr. E. and Dr. Roberts.

“Convenient location with plenty of parking. The staff is very patient with my silly, shy dog.“

“Before meeting Vlade, I had spent thousands and thousands of dollars on training my two dogs, from private sessions to group or even board and train, with some results BUT not comparable to Vlade’s training AT ALL.
The dog wizard really suits him. His professionalism, calm manner, knowledge, method and overall understanding of both dog and human psychology, you could never find ANYONE better that him.
His two weeks boot camp worth every penny. It’s once a life time training FOREVER, off leash, everywhere, with a peace of mind that your dog(s) is going to be on his/her best behavior ever, even when Kathy or Kathy’s mother-in-law are around.
You just have to believe in the process. ?“

“I've been with Alicia Pet Care for many years, going back to the original location on Alicia Parkway. They have always been kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. The explanations on the care and treatment of my pets have always been clear and thorough. I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else.“

“We've had an amazing experience with EveryDog! Our dog, Charlie has attended daycare, grooming, training and 11 overnights of boarding when we went away for Xmas. You can tell the team at EveryDog cares about every single dog there. :) We always get greeted with a warm smile at the front, get detailed notes pertaining to Charlie when he trains and even got daily text check-ins with pictures when he stayed 11 consecutive nights to let us know how he was doing. When we were away we knew Charlie was in good hands! Charlie is always so excited to walk in the front door because he knows he's going to have a blast with his dog friends and his human friends! I would recommend EveryDog 100%.“

“After extensive research for a professional team to provide advanced training for ADA service dog certification, we confidently selected Good Dog OC and Adam’s team.There are many online resources which can be retained for training and subsequent certification. Each group has its opinions and protocol on best practices to accomplish what's necessary.In our case, we have a senior family member who has a lifetime disease requiring the trained compassionate skills of a service dog.Upon our review and contacting five businesses who specialize in training, we began the process of selecting the group we believe would be the best team.We met with two of the five resources before our meeting with Adam from Good Dog OC. The other sources we phoned and discussed their preferred processes.Suffice it to say, our phone conversation and meeting with Adam resulted in selecting Good Dog OC for counseling and instruction.Whether basic training, or more sophisticated steps are needed, i.e., service dog training, I am pleased to provide the highest recommendation to Adam and his team at Good Dog OC.Let’s call it what it is…we adore our four-legged family member. He’s as much a part of our family as love allows.Most importantly, we need the serious help for the disabled senior member of our family to be accompanied by a trained service animal.Adam’s expertise is undeniable.His compassion, knowledge, and concern about details makes him and his team the true “go to” group for any dog training.There are no surprises as far as costs. Adam and the team are paid by their performance. Tangible results matter! Good Dog OC is the winning group!Adam is transparent and more than honorable when discussing costs. It’s very refreshing during inflationary times to have the respect of professionals such as Adam.My genuine appreciation to you Adam, and your team for exceeding expectations and bringing the important “comfort” in our lives!Adam, you are a five-star champion in your training approach and process.Stay the course and keep blessing families with your work.“

“We rescued a sweet little 8 pound poodle in December. She came with quite a few behavioral issues. Our neighbors used Sit Means Sit for their dog so we gave them a call. Megan and Kevin came to the house met us and Emma. They were honest about what training could do. I had taken my dogs to other trainers over the years, NONE of them ever talked about the dogs state of mind. Sit Means Sit focuses on finding that calm state of mind, and all the commands and training are centered around giving the dog peace.But you dear owner must be committed to the process. It works. My baby is calm, confident and stable.“

“My family and I were away for a couple days so we left our dog under the care of UC Barkley, and we’re so glad we did. There is no other place that takes better care of your furry friends than UC Barkley! They are very caring and do an amazing job with making sure your dog has the best time during their stay! And to mention, they do an excellent job with grooming as well! Highly recommend UC Barkley!“

“Our usual vet was temporarily closed, so we came here with our giant baby, and we were really happy with how much they were able to accommodate his… particular needs. They were so great about showing this 131 pound goober plenty of patience and love despite his freak outs. 12/10! Highly recommend!“

“Excellent care and the staff is beyond fabulous! I am so grateful to have found such great people who really care about my dogs.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

“Such a great animal hospital. The staff and veterinarians are so loving and kind. They love their jobs and work with you every step of the way. Pharaoh and Kaya are happy to call this place their hospital.“

“Always the best experience with the entire team at Camino Pet Hospital. I have taken my animals there for 17 years plus.“

“If I could give this place (and Natalia and Dylan) 5 more stars I absolutely would... and more. This place is truly amazing, and care about your dogs as if they were theirs. The amount of flexibility and kindness they have shown us in the past days in taking care of our dogs is priceless, and I would not go anywhere else to board my dogs. If you're looking for a place to board your dogs, this is the place. I trust this place unequivocally. Thank you for taking care my dogs as if they were your own, Natalia, Dylan, and team!“

“I have been to several events put on by Rock Solid K9 and Nicole and have had nothing but wonderful experiences. Nicole is a gifted dog handler, and my dog and I appreciate her helping us to be come the best team that we can be.“

“Both our high energy gsps run with Carol twice a week..not only do they come home tierd they love Carol! We can ask..Is Carol here? They run into the window crying waiting!“

“Excellent selection, they don’t have a store front but ship out of the Los Angeles area, twice now they have saved me when I was in need of a charger and replacement antenna days before a hunt and both times it showed up on time. Great pricing and extremely helpful!“

“Charlotte Grotewold has been grooming my baby Ziggy for 4 years - I actually followed her from the San Juan location over to RSM. The facilities are clean and my dog looks and smells amazing every time he comes out. The price is reasonable for the services provided.“

“So clean and happy in there! I love being able to check on my buddy at all times via video feed. He had such a good time with all the other dogs and I could see the energy all around was a healthy natural pace. The staff have a great handle on things. Plus, he was nice and clean when we picked him up. Seemed to be "smiling!" I'm excited to have a place I can trust with Bolt when we need it.“

“Chloe has been wonderful with our pup. Since I'm a first time dog parent, it took a few times to figure out what kind of haircut we liked and she's perfect!“

“The whole staff has been so helpful, friendly and professional! They took the best care of my little dog.“

“Decided to go here as they had more of a family vibe that I'm used to going. And no, not because they have family in their name, although that is kind of interesting and unique too. Unless things are really dire, which they usually aren't, the Vets here take on a more conservative approach. Just like at your human doctor, even tho it seems unsure, not everything is an emergency, and if it is, your pet belongs at the emergency hospital, not your regular vet.

You could choose to go a different route and order excessive tests for your peace of mind, despite the Vets here not seeing the urgency. And mind you, they've had education, they've gone thru training, they've had trials. They've seen so much worse... and so I appreciate that they have a cool head on and can be realistic and logistical.

14 years of cat ownership with hundreds in-between for tnr and cat rescue with 2 handfuls at home now. And with this vet and the one prior in anaheim, not one lost from negligence. No intentional delusion or malice. Good honest people who will suggest this and that and reinforce a necessity here and there but aren't pushy or black and white with all or nothing attitude.“

“The staff is so kind and caring, not only for our fur baby, but for the parents' worried hearts. I hate to leave her behind, but there is no other place I'd go!“

“They took care of a sweet dog that needed emergency help the same day I called. He literally came out dancing when we picked him up! I've never taken an animal there before but I am absolutely impressed with their kindness and care. Will definitely use them again and highly recommend them.“
