Big Dawg’z Pet Biz

Jill and her crew are simply amazing! We have been using her services for about a year now as a referral from the infamous dog trainer, Vladae. We have a challenging shepherd and a healer mix and they absolutely love their walkers!!! These guys and gals are true animal lovers! I needed them in a bind before my wedding and Jill and co saved the day — they even sent me a video on our wedding day (happy tears in my eyes). This is my go to company for help with my two boys and I cannot say enough good things about this crew!!! We love them and so do Maverick and Lincoln!

My furry-​baby is in such good hands with the kind souls of Big Dawgz! Erica, Kristen, and all the others take such good care of my dog… I never worry about him with the Big Dawgz team. They have always been on time, shown my dog lots of love and attention, and given him his mid-​day exercise while I’m at work. I come home to the cutest, hand-​written report… I look forward to this update everyday! I highly recommend Big Dawgz!

We’ve used Big Dawg’z for 5 years and Jill has always taken wonderful care of our cats while we are away. She loves them as if they were her own and we always feel so comfortable leaving them in her care. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and professional pet sitter!

I wish I had thought about using this type of service way before I actually called. These people are amazing and it is so nice to know that they are there for us whenever we need them. We used to have to bug our kids or neighbors and that was really not comfortable. I truly love the convenience and special attention that our pets get. They even have a notebook and give me daily updates on how they did on their walks each day. We love our pets and we are so busy that we feel so much better being able to provide them this special care when we cannot be there. Everyone has been truly caring and thoughtful. I highly recommend this service to anybody who has a pet that needs someone else to help care for them while we have to carry-​on with our very busy lives.

We’ve been using Big Dawg’z for over 2 years now and we absolutely love them! They care about my dogs as if they were their own. We have one hard to walk Pitbull mix, Jessie & Mike-​all of them, have been extremely helpful & patient with him :) They send pictures and made a book for us at Xmas, which is on our coffee table. I can’t say enough good things about them. My dogs cry with excitement when they see their car pull up to go for their walks. Give them a try, you won’t regret it!

Over two years ago, Chris and I adopted Charlie and Hugo… Pups we learned were often a challenge to look over. «Boys will be boys!» We were SO lucky to have stumbled upon Big Dawgz Pet Biz. There is NO ONE else we could trust our fur babies with when it comes to letting someone into our home and handling our kids for a walk while we are away. (We are very particular about that)
All I can say is that they treat our boys like their own and that is a peace of mind you can’t buy anywhere. Their handlers are specially trained and experienced in dog walking, doggie health, and doggie training.
By the way, they take pictures of your pups while you are away. We received a personalized book filled with beautiful photos of our babies. I can’t believe how much we’ve learned about our Charlie and Hugo when we were not home…
If anyone needs a dog sitter or dog walking service… I urge you to meet with Big Dawgz Pet Biz. They service many areas in OC and are expanding. They are very intimate with dog lovers and the community such as «dog whisperers» like Vladae and Ceasar Millan. We our fam @bigdawgzpetbiz2007

In addition to Big Dawg’s excellent pet sitting services, I also recommend their dog training! Our dachshunds are so sweet and loving, but they barked ridiculously on walks whenever we would encounter other people with or without dogs. Jessie came to our home and gave us excellent training strategies. After two sessions and practice on our part, we can now take walks and the boys are perfect little gentlemen. The neighbors have gone out of their way to tell us how awesome the boys are behaving! Thanks Jessie and Jill!

Big Dawg’s has been a great find for us! They are reliable, flexible, polite, and trust worthy. Jill couldn’t be nicer or more accommodating and it’s evident that she loves dogs! I highly recommend them and from my research I found their prices to be on point with other dog walking services.

We used Big Dawg’s Pet Biz in January when we went on a long weekend cruise. Jessie stayed at the house and took care of everything. No problems at all. We used them again for our 2 ½ week vacation. This time we asked them to take two of our dogs for walks while we were away. Jessie came every day and took them out for an hour. She sent me photos and text message updates and even made a movie about their adventures (walks). It was very reassuring to know that they were being taken care of and were having daily exercise and fun. Jessie even helped my family with my older dog who didn’t go for walks but needed some special care.

Way over priced~it is all about $$$, they nickel and dime to wipe snot out of your dogs eye. Many other companies who charge, they told me you get what you pay for~with them you don’t get what you over pay for and found a much more «pet friendly» business. SHOP AROUND and CHECK PRICING, INSURANCE and don’t let trainers control dogs with fear.

We are very happy with the progress our dog, Sable, has had with her separation anxiety due to the help we’re receiving from Jill, Mark, and Jesse. Jill and Mark were recommended to us by Vladae at SoCal Dog Training, to help us with our dog’s separation anxiety. Mark and Jesse were training by Vladae, so we know they have had the best training and are familiar with helping dogs with this issue.
From the very first visit, it was apparent they knew what they were doing and were concerned about getting Sable back to being happy and confident. Mark and Jesse were amazing with their handling of her and after a few weeks, there’s been a marked change in Sable’s attitude — much more relaxed at home and happier.
Their prices are reasonable and with their caliber of dog training knowledge, you can’t beat the service. Plus, if you need a training refresher, Mark can help!

Mike and Jill are the best. Our dog Penny has been doing weekly maintenance training with Mike for over a year and I can’t even begin to explain the huge impact they have on her happy puppy life. Our dog comes to work with us, on vacation with us, and pretty much runs our lives; yes we are those people, so trusting her to anyone else’s care was very hard for us. When mike comes to pick her up she runs for the car wagging her tail, even though she knows it means she has to go work, and when she comes home she is as happy as can be, tired, but always happy. Our dog trusting mike and Jill is probably the best compliment she can give, she’s pretty picky. They so generally care about Penny that we are always assured that she is in the best care. It’s so refreshing knowing that we don’t have to worry about her at all with them. I have complete confidence in their ability to care for her and know they have and will always make the best choices for her. I recommend them to anyone who needs any sort of help with their dog or wants to make sure their dog is cared for just like they would do.

I never need to worry when out of town I scurry! Jill and Mike have the right attitudes
to care for my kitty dudes! They are dependable and nice, they send a photo update once or twice! Pampered Pet Paws is the place when your pet family needs an embrace!

I met Mike after we did some training with a counterpart Heather our airedale was dropped in a dropbox in Oklahoma city and shipped down to LA I had 4 airedales prior but they have different personalities Heather wasnt particularly dog friendly.
I was really reluctant to socialize her with other animals
Mike came to our home and introduced himself to Heather and took her for socialization to the laguna dog park
I felt at ease with him and he assured me Heather would be fine
She did well and I was pleased and confident that he could handle any situatuion that heather had.
I would fell confident reccomending him to other clients and hopefully know that he will be around for some other training if need be

I highly recommend Pampered Pet Paws. Our dog family can be challenging and they are absolutely the best! They are professional, caring, and responsive. I know that they will take care of «our kids» with the same love and compassion as we do. I can travel with peace of mind knowing that our animals are in the care of Pampered Pet Paws. If I could rate them with more than 5 stars, I certainly would!

Jill, Mike, Jay, and the whole crew of Pampered Pet Paws are absolute Grade A. I previously had issues with petsitters, and every horror story you can imagine from pet abuse, to coming home to a dirty home. I was referred to them by Vladae who is an amazing dog trainer. They take care of our two jack russell terriers who are high strung, our malti-​poo, and our two cats. Not only did we hire them for daily walks, but when i go on vacation i know they’ll always take care of our animals and home. We always come back to happy wagging tails, clean home, and lots of love and during our trips we get pictures and constant updates. They are there at your beckon call, with the best service you’ll ever receive and they have become part of our family with their kind hearts. We won’t move unless we know Pampered Pet Paws serves our area… I wouldn’t pick anyone else in this world.

Mike and Jill and their team of pet sitters/​walkers and trainers are awesome. I first used them when they were referred to me by another awesome resource, Vladae the russian dog wizard. After a few rounds of pet sitting of my 3 dogs, we were really comfortable with them. Then disaster struck and two of my dogs got into a fight and one was badly injured the night before I was leaving on vacation for my birthday. Jill and crew took care of my baby, wounds and all, and kept me updated with pictures and emails the whole time. They treat my dogs as if they were their own pets, and I always feel that my house is well looked after too. I would never use another service.
