TESTIMONIALS

“Jon and the Zen Dog team are terrific…

Our dog Cali loves her daily treks with her Zen Dog friends. The team is very attentive to details, very responsive, and really care about our puppy. The app they use is great and I always look forward to the daily photos they send us of Cali at play. The service is a great alternative to using doggy daycare at a drop off center.”

— Rob from Yelp!

“I had the best experience…

I almost wish I wasn't moving so I could continue using them. Everyone I encountered was incredibly kind, reliable & trustworthy (all of which are very important when you're asking someone to take walk your precious pup AND come into your home daily when you're not there). I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!”

— Meredith from Google

“Couldn't be better…

We are thrilled with the services and have given their name to many others. They have worked with her and trained her and she is an amazing dog a good part of which is due to their services.”

— Susan from Angie’s List
