Pet Food Express
280 Northgate Dr, San RafaelGood people, generally friendly and service responsive. They could differentiate themselves by having Associates help with the pet grooming by dropping in and out as needed to make it easier on pet parent to navigate the grooming process.
I like their setup and their willingness to respond. Better than Petco by a lot and not as good as they are capable of being.
Above all a good resourced and safe place to self groom my dog.

Red Hill Pet Center
1566 4th St, San RafaelThis is what a neighborhood pet store should be. I love this place. I’m glad they moved from San Anselmo to San Rafael. It’s much closer for us and we can get our chicken feed and our dog food. My kids love looking at all the fishes in their tanks and watching the birds, guinea pigs and snakes. You can’t create a vibe like Redhill Pet Through any corporate entity it just comes naturally through neighborhood people and local folks. We love you Elvis. Sir walks a lot only uses red help pet center.

Houndsville Grooming and Day care
1455 Francisco Blvd E STE C, San RafaelSo living in Marin with an English Cream Golden Retriever…we searched for a simple groomer that would preserve our dog’s natural fluffiness, but simply trim down fur to reduce shedding and dingle berries on walks and such. In our search, we were faced with Marin prices for our simple needs. These people not only understood exactly what we wanted but charged a SUPER REASONABLE rate compared to what we encountered for our 75 pound dingo. And the results, well, it was perfect. Our special little creature was trimmed exactly how we wanted, fluffiness preserved just the right amount.

San Rafael Animal Hospital
419 Irwin St, San RafaelI live 35 minutes away up in Petaluma area and for a variety of reasons went to San Rafael Animal Hospital for the first time with my dog Rose. I was pleased with every part of our visit. Dr. Davis even started chipping some tartar off my dog's teeth as he was examining her just because. They even managed to X-ray Rose's leg without anesthesia (and without me there) I believe because she felt secure in their care. Normally she would get anxious if she doesn't see me. Fair prices, too. The neighborhood is sort of industrial and the office is no frills, but the care is exceptional. I'll be coming back all the way down here from now on.

Animal Healing Arts - Lisa Pesch Marinho, DVM
4280 Redwood Hwy STE 4, San RafaelDog whisperer and now cat whisperer. Dr. Marinho is a gift. It started with our Bernese Mountain Dog. He was beginning to have frequent neck pain. It was painful to watch him. He is 10.5 years old. So that is awesome for a Berner. His regular vet put him on Gabapentin daily which takes a toll on a dog’s liver/kidneys. I refused to give him daily. Since Sterling has been seeing Dr. Marinho for acupuncture and taking muscle and neck supplements, he’s like a 2 year old. He has not shown any neck/spine discomfort for months. On his walks, people ask if he’s two. Now our Ragdoll cat is 12.5 years old and got very sick. So is it hyperthyroidism, IBS, or lymphoma? So now Dr. Marinho is treating him as well. We now started acupuncture and supplements on him. She is so knowledgeable, patient, and kind. She is a delightful partner in figuring out the best options for my senior guys. I’m grateful for Dr. Marinho. Selfishly with all the kudos, I fear she’ll get even busier. Oh well, she is amazing. With thanks, Kimberly 12/29/2022

VCA Animal Wellness Center of Marin
506 4th St, San RafaelWe’ve been with VCA Animal Wellness ever since they took over from our original vet, Tender Care (over 10 years) and I can honestly say they have become family to us.
Dr. Siek has been our veterinarian from the very beginning of her time there, and there are no words to express how grateful we are for her. She has loved and cared for our dogs—Bassa, Lilo, Archie, and now our newest little one, Kona—with the same tenderness and devotion she would give her own. That kind of trust is rare, and it means everything.
And her team… they are truly extraordinary. Alex, Anita, Francisco (who has been with us since the Tender Care days!), Kelly, Kate, Brooke, and Laurel ❤️ —every single one of them has shown so much compassion, patience, and genuine heart. I’ve interacted with each of them, and their kindness has left a lasting impression on us and our pets. They don’t just care for animals—they care for the people who love them, too.
To have a group of humans who show up every day with such love and dedication is a gift. We are incredibly lucky to have them. I trust them all completely, and I recommend them with my whole heart.

Our puppy Marley has had the most incredible experience—Hillary goes above and beyond to create thoughtful, enriching outings that build confidence and curiosity. From socialization adventures (like meeting koi at the mall!) to the videos and updates she shares, it’s clear how much care and intention goes into everything she does.
You can truly see the difference in Marley already. If you want your puppy to have the best possible start, Hillary’s program is something special.

A Better Dog Trainer
987 Del Ganado Rd, San RafaelWe adopted a doberman mix and it was clear on day 2 that this was not going to be an easy dog. He was very willful, energetic and had some very unpredictable aggression issues - as in I could not walk him without him lunging and even, to my horror, nipping people on several occasions. My dog was also determined to rip my shoulder out of it's socket. Now we walk without incident and pulling. There have been other bumps along the way, but John always handles them in a very calm and compassionate manner. My dog, who is not overly affectionate, loves to see John: his tail always thumps upon John's arrival.

Mary's Angels Dog Training
41 Simms St suite c, San RafaelWe had an absolutely amazing experience at Mary's Angels Training Facility! We brought our 10-week-old puppy, Celly, in for a puppy play session, and from the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease.
Mary and her two assistants were incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and kind. They created such a safe, welcoming environment and truly made our puppy feel seen, supported, and comfortable. It was clear they understand puppy behavior and know exactly how to help little ones build confidence.
The space was thoughtfully set up with toys, agility equipment, and plenty of room for supervised play. What we appreciated most was how hands-on and educational the experience was for us as owners. Mary walked us through how to properly introduce Celly to the other bigger puppy that was there — allowing her to be off leash while staying close enough to step in if needed. It gave us so much confidence and peace of mind.
If you're looking for a positive, structured, and caring environment for your puppy to socialize and learn, we cannot recommend Mary’s Angels enough. We’re so grateful for such a wonderful first training experience.

Marin Pet Care Pros LLC
2 Civic Center Dr #4185, San RafaelBasia is a lovely human being. She's patient and kind and runs a legit (as in licensed, bonded, and insured) pet care business. We did an intake and trial day with our dog, Matilda with her. Unfortunately, it was not a match (our little girl was way too shy and reserved to be a good fit for Basia's pack). But we so appreciated Basia's proactive and kind communication throughout the process. We got to spend some time with Basia and meet some of her other doggie clients, and I was so impressed by her attention to detail with all of the dogs, her honesty and transparency about anything we asked, and the fact that her space is so neat, clean, and organized. She loves her job so much that she has pictures of the dogs she cares for all over her house, which is really sweet. I wish it had been the right match for our dog, but I appreciated Basia's honesty about why it wasn't. I would feel completely comfortable recommending her to others based on the interactions we had with her.

Eric advised us on the menu, supported me through the ordering process and troubleshooting quantities needed, checked out our location ahead of time, arrived early/on time for set up, and provided all of the signage we needed to ensure people knew ingredients and allergy information. The food was great - so healthy and filling. We heard numerous compliments about the food, including from many people who said they would like to use Humbowl for a future event in their work unit. We also appreciated their provision of serving utensils and the eco-friendly materials (bowls and serving containers). The fact that they have a neurodiverse hiring program that supports inclusion in our community was icing on the cake. We are already planning to use them for our next event. Highly recommend!

Hot Italian
909 Lincoln Ave, San RafaelI took my Mom there tonight for a late dinner. just to be very clear, my Mother will find something to complain about at most restaurants. I had only been there once before to get my son a quick pizza to go. But it was so delicious the pizza never even made it home. This time I wanted the full experience. If I could give it 10 stars I would. Our Hot Italian sever Fancesco was beyond charming and attentive. My Mom raved about every bite and not one complaint. After our dinner she wanted to try the Gelato (another shock) and again our service went above and beyond and Fancesco led us over the their homemade Gelato ( out of this world btw). Everything from all the fresh ingredients to the service and cleanliness ( a big no no for my Mother) was tip top! Thanks Hot Italian for a great night but mostly for making my Mother smile and laugh over amazing food.
