Pet Boarding Training near Bethesda

“Thank you, Tom, for giving me and my family the tools to ensure our Cavapoo puppy grew up to be a wonderful dog. We get compliments all of the time on how well behaved and responsive she is. We have recommended you to many people in the community. Your training gave us peace of mind when we have her off leash (in safe places), and when she is in our home. I am so much more confident as a dog owner with your help and support!!“

“Our go-to vet. Dr. Dougherty and her staff are amazing, and made us and our dog feel right at home. We just moved back to the area and can't imagine going elsewhere for veterinary services!“

“Absolutely recommend Healthy Hound Grooming. The staff are incredibly friendly and professional. They take very good care of my baby Maru, he always looks fresh and smells incredible after every session. He’s horribly anxious but the staff are so good with him. If you need a place to get high quality service for grooming, this place is it!“

“I have been a client of Alpine for 35 years. The veterinarians are skilled, kind, and caring. The same goes for the techs. They are also consistently friendly and efficient. My dog can be a handful to treat, yet the staff seem quite fond of him.“

“Pooch Pals has been fantastic to work with. I started a new job shortly after getting a new puppy and Pooch Pals gave me peace of mind, providing fast response times and plenty of walks for my puppy who needed extra attention early on. Highly recommend.“

“Stephanie was absolutely amazing in helping socialize our puppy, Onyx. We started with her when he was just 14 weeks old, and from the very beginning, she went above and beyond with her level of training and support.

She was incredibly patient, not just with Onyx, but with our whole family, teaching us how to be the best family for him. The trust she built with Onyx and with us was so quick and natural, and every session left us feeling more confident and supported. She communicated clearly, sent us detailed summaries after each session, and even shared photos to help us stay on track with our practice at home.

Onyx absolutely adored Stephanie, and it was obvious how much love and dedication she brought to every training session. The results were so responsive and encouraging that I honestly didn’t want the training to end! I wish we could have her guiding us through the entire first year of Onyx’s life,I would gladly continue because of how invaluable her help has been.

Thanks to Stephanie, Onyx is growing into a well-mannered, obedient, and happy boy, and we feel confident as his family. I can’t recommend her enough, she is truly exceptional!“

“Great brother, dedicated, passionate, fly and professional. Support his business and show love. He sure nuff deserves it. God bless you my friend and all your endeavors. CLuv“

“My little dog LOVES going to this daycare! We live a mile away and when she senses we're walking here, she gets a bounce in her step. And when we walk inside, she squeals with joy like a piglet to see all her friends. The staff are good to her and she loves them. She comes home very tired from all the socializing. It's a good setup.“

“We love this place! We will miss you all. Thank you for caring for Boudreaux! Off to Alabama.“

“Everyone here is always so wonderful. They are kind and patient even when I need to take the last hour appointments due to my work schedule. Special shout out to Kiana and Skye for being lovely receptionists and to Lisa Nicole for being so wonderful taking care of my million questions!“

“Love the doctors and staff. Been going here for years and always feel comfortable, place is clean.“

“Two Way is the only business I would trust watching my cats. They are great and take the time to not only drop in on my cats, but play with them and give them some much needed love while I am out of town. Sara is one of the only people in the world my shy cat will come out and greet when they are pet sitting.

Would recommend to anyone who needs pet services.“

“Brittany was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible with scheduling and worked around my work hours, which I really appreciated. She was incredibly kind and gentle with my 1-year-old Corgi, who has shown some aggressive behaviors.

Brittany equipped my husband and me with practical techniques and training skills that have made a noticeable difference. She emphasized the importance of consistency in parent training, and it's true—real progress comes with committed practice.

She also provided helpful follow-up notes and reference guides, which have been invaluable as we continue the training on our own. If you're looking to make meaningful changes in your dog’s behavior, I highly recommend working with Brittany!“

“I had such a great time with my golden Finn! We’re new to the area and we move around a lot so we’ve been to a lot of vets. I’ve found it hard to find ones I like. This team was amazing and we’re happy to be patients here as long as we’re in the area.“

“My wife and I have been working with Toni at Well Done Charlie for the past 5 months with our dog, Crouton, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! When we started, Crouton could only stay alone for mere seconds before getting anxious. But thanks to Toni’s expertise and patience, Crouton can now comfortably stay alone for up to 3 hours. This is a huge achievement, and we’re beyond grateful for Toni’s dedication and personalized approach. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and can deliver real results, Toni at Well Done Charlie is the best choice!“

“Stella had a great time during her stay. We received photos and videos while she was there. She came home happy and tired.“

“Usually I would not write the review until the service is complete (I pick up Miss Kitty tomorrow morning) but I just have to let the world know what a blessing it was that I found CKCR. Miss Kitty's previous "owner" died in March and her family could not take her in. We connected "by accident" on FB in June, and we've now been together, slowly adjusting, for just four months.

Meanwhile, after several challenging/failed attempts to get her into her carrier so we could leave for a building exterminator appointment, and after cancelling several appointments, I worked with her treats for a week and she walked easily into the carrier. But the appt was delayed four hours after I had already gotten her into the carrier, and we would need to be gone from the apartment for four hours after that. I was so worried about her being in the carrier for so long that I started crying, quite to my surprise. A dear friend suggested that I findi a boarding service so she could be comfortable during the time.

Thank you, Google maps!. I was so grateful to get CKCR on the phone. Bridget called me right back and guided me through the intake process, including making sure we had documentation of shots & spaying. I had her records, but not everything was clear at first. Bridget was so kind and reassuring, as I was crying on and off during the conversation. (Lot's of old feelings to process later on!) She also suggested several things, like a piece of clothing with my scent I could bring to help Miss Kitty feel at home. I felt so relieved.

CKCR is less than a mile away, and another dear friend was available to drive me and Miss Kitty, with Kitty meow/howling and me crying on and off! When we got there, we were so warmly welcomed by Bridget, who showed us Miss Kitty's "condo" and set it all up with food, litter, and the "comfy" items I had brought. I also saw a fabulous play area and she assured me that Miss Kitty will be fine and she will send pictures. I also watched as Miss Kitty tried to dash off when Bridget opened the carrier, and Bridget simply reached under her belly and guided her into the condo. I did not know how to do that! I am so relieved and grateful, and thank the Universe for this blessed gift! And I feel very sure that anything I add to this tomorrow morning will be nothing but positive.“

“Pricier than I’m used to but worth it. My pup came out looking great and feeling so soft and they finished her in under 2 hours. My only issue is that her nails still feel sharp, and I think I got the grinding service. Nevertheless, I’ll be returning.

Edit: I decided to go back to 5 stars because of how her eyelashes were perfectly separated for the trim around her face. Most people cut off her eyelashes.“

“All the staff are wonderful and take excellent care of my cats. They are also good with humans.“

“The staff took excellent care of my senior cat! It was a calm environment which helped my cat feel comfortable and not so stressed. All of the staff were so kind and knowledgeable. Dr. Tores explained the exam and results well. I felt like they really listened to my concerns too!“

“Amazing experience I got my two boys groomed. They are senior dogs and have some arthritis in the back legs and some skin issues. She worked with and bathed them with a special shampoo for skin allergy. Also got recommended products for skin allergies and possible different diets for allergy sensitive dogs. She sent me pictures through out and updated me with anything I needed to know. Quick to responded and very timely. I recommend Anyone taking their time to do research on a good groomer to definitely take you dogs here. I couldn’t have had a better experience.“

“I have brought my dog to this vet for 6 years now for her annual checkups and also getting her spade. They provide great service and convenient location.“

“Just came to get my dogs nails trimmed but the man who worked there was very nice with my dog who hates getting that done.“

“took our new daushound puppy to Dr.Brody and his staff. she had a tick bite and some other issues. He took care of them all. and we got her vacs taken care of. Great place and great staff. AA++“

“Everyone is extremely kind and professional. They genuinely care for the animals and is one of the best vets I’ve been to, I had to bring my cat in for a dental procedure and they made it very easy.“

“We loved working with Susie! Our newly adopted dog had some issues with demand barking, not being able to relax, etc. Through training sessions with Susie we learned a number of strategies and commands (and fun games) that helped our pup settle in to her new home! Susie always had tips and tricks no matter the issues we brought up and it’s clear Susie has a lot of experience. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for training or pet sitting services!“

“My dog and I love District Dogs Shaw. He has only been going for almost a month and he always is so excited to go in for daycare! The entire staff is amazing, sweet, and provide great customer service and they truly care for every pet that walks in. Roxy and Marquita are always so helpful and kind during every interaction I’ve had. The prices are great and an appointment for daycare is easy to make. You also get to watch your dog play on camera! Best decision I’ve made for my puppy. I definitely suggest District Dogs Shaw for your dogs!“
