Reviews

Walk families on Dog Over Breed

★★★★★

Great group of dog experts. These guys understand how the dogs think, what motivates them, and how to change their behavior.
My cattle dog mix is very much a 1-person dog, but he loves his pals at Dog Over Breed and is better behaved with them.

As is often the case, it’s been my inconsistencies as the pet owner that my dog was taking advantage of and getting confused by, so these guys also helped to “train” me on what my pup expects/needs to be his best self.

They have supported us with walks, which are more than the typical walk around the block for 30 min you often get. They pick up and drop off the dogs and it turns out to be a few hour adventure for them.
Doggie daycare is well managed at their facility as is grooming (bath, nails, defur, brushing, etc.).

Communications and timeliness are spot on.

Thanks guys!

Dog Over Breed has been an amazing place for my dog Lázaro. They do an amazing job ensuring he is always well behaved, always training on how to walk with a pack on and off leash, and their grooming services are stellar. There have been several times when we needed to board Lázaro and Dog over Breed always comes through assisting us with our Furrson.
I would give them 1,000 stars if possible!
Mo and Vic love what they do and you can tell, my dog Lázaro is always super happy to see them!
Best daycare on the east bay hands down!
