5 Stars – The Best Place for Your Pup! Urban Dog House is by far the best place for your pet! We’ve been taking Cali here for over 5 years now, and it’s the only place we truly trust. Steve and his team are amazing with dogs — they genuinely care and know what they’re doing. We started with group lessons when Cali was just a puppy, learning obedience (and honestly, they trained us just as much as her, haha!). As she grew up and we began traveling, Urban Dog House became her second home. Their daycare and boarding staff always keep Cali happy, healthy, and active — even teaching her how to swim during the summer! They go above and beyond, sending us photos and updates when we’re away so we never have to worry. Thank you, Steve and the whole crew, for being such a wonderful, trustworthy team. You’re not just trainers — you’re family to us and Cali!

Steve and his team at Urban Dog House in Milpitas are absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, they made us and our dog, Rocket, feel incredibly comfortable and welcome. Their warm, professional approach put us at ease, and Rocket had an absolute blast during his swimming session. The facility is top-notch, clean, and perfectly suited for dogs. We’re already looking forward to making swimming sessions a regular routine! For anyone in the Bay Area looking for exceptional swimming and boarding services, Urban Dog House is a 10/10. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience! Steve was great conveying a confidence of someone with loads of experience and knows what he’s doing. I arrived expecting a struggle from Rocky and lots of splashing and was instead surprised to see him swimming laps like he was born to swim. I will definitely be returning to the Urban Dog House and highly recommend it to others. - Thank you Steve.

A fantastic experience. The pool was impeccably clean, which is always a top priority for me. Trainer was incredibly patient, guiding my dog through their first time in the water. They made sure my dog had a positive experience without becoming too exhausted. Overall, I highly recommend this class for anyone looking to introduce their dog to swimming in a safe and supportive environment. The most important thing is - my pups really had fun!

Our 1.5-year-old German Shepherd, Claire, has been attending training classes at Urban Dog House once a week and boards there whenever we are out of town. Our experience with them has been nothing short of transformative. When we first adopted Claire from a shelter, she had a challenging past—raised mostly in a crate with minimal human or canine interaction, and a survivor of a car accident. She was anxious, unsettled, and lacked basic manners. However, from our very first private training and assessment with Dexter, the owner of Urban Dog House, we noticed a change. He provided invaluable initial tips and integrated us into their Level One Obedience Course. The course covers all fundamentals and basics, crucial for Claire’s development. One of the highlights of boarding at Urban Dog House is the personalized care Claire receives. We always look forward to receiving her report cards, which include pictures, videos, and detailed updates on her progress. It’s comforting to know that we can also plan extra sessions with obedience and agility trainers during her stay, ensuring continuous and comprehensive training. Additionally, the option to have her bathed and her nails clipped before pickup is a wonderful convenience that adds to the seamless experience. A special shoutout goes to Steve, the agility trainer who also taught Claire how to settle and decompress at home. His impact on her ability to relax and feel at ease, especially after her past confinement, has been remarkable. Claire adores him, and his training methods have greatly contributed to her improved behavior at home. We've even signed her up for swim lessons this summer at their on-site dog pool, excited for her to enjoy another fun activity under their care. The community at Urban Dog House is fantastic; fellow dog parents are passionate and supportive, creating a nurturing environment for learning and growth. The structured training has not only helped Claire but also us as pet owners to understand and manage her needs better. The ability to observe advanced classes was a bonus, giving us insights into future training opportunities. Boarding at Urban Dog House is a worry-free experience for us. Knowing that their team upholds our training methods during Claire's stay gives us immense peace of mind. After a recent two-week boarding during our Europe trip, Claire returned even more well-behaved. We were particularly impressed with her improved ability to settle down and relax at her designated “place,” something she struggled with immensely due to her past crate confinement. Urban Dog House has played a pivotal role in transforming Claire from a skittish, anxious dog into a confident, well-mannered companion. We could not have asked for a better partner in our journey of pet parenthood. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enhance their dog's behavior and welfare.
