Picco’s Paws

My dog was killed under this lady’s care a couple years ago. She is very greedy. She boards all sorts dog breeds and sizes all together in the same room. My 5lb Pomeranian was killed by a 220 lb Great Dane right in front of her .You can read the full story under a non recommended review. At the time of the incident I didn’t have Unilocal so had my friend and mother write the review. If you care about the life of your beloved pet do not use her services. It still hurts my heart everyday what happened. It could have been easily avoided.

Andrea Picco is an excellent dog walking service. My Labrador always comes back tired and happy after a day at the beach with Andrea. Picco’s Paws is highly recommend, and despite what Unilocal says, her business is not closed! I have used her on several occasions when I go out of town. 925−451−9191

Andrea and Piccos Paws were recommended to me by several of my neighbors when I got a Lab puppy. It took me a few months to give Andrea a call and I honestly don’t know what I was waiting for! Now my 10 month old Alice goes out with Andrea twice a week. When I’m busy, I love that she gets to have a blast with her own dog friends, running and romping to her heart’s content. Alice is always happy when Piccos Paws picks her up. I can take her for long walks and hikes but I can never drain her puppy energy like they can. Andrea is professional, organized and accommodating when our schedule changes. Pricing is reasonable and they offer special discounts for first time customers too.

Andrea is a good person and doesn’t do a bad job-​but she doesn’t do a great job either. I wish I felt more enthusiastic about her services. We’ve used her a handful of times this last year, but after the last time, I found another dog sitter. Last time my dog came home freaked out and hyper after a few days with Andrea. I think Andrea is fun with the dogs, and gives them love and exercise, but provides no structure. My dog does better when she knows what is right and wrong and has a little structure in her life. Andrea’s rates are good though, and she picks up and delivers, which is a plus. She will also buy your dog food at a discounted rate and deliver it to your door — a nice perk. I didn’t like how much she name-​drops. I know she is trying to build her business, but I am over it.

I couldn’t have found a better person to look after my Santana than Andrea and her team. From the moment I met her, I knew she was a keeper. Santana gravitated to her and kissed her all over from the minute she walked through the door. Since then, I’ve used Andrea for walking, day care and boarding. Her services are impeccable!!! She is very professional and she truly takes care of my pittie as if it were her own. I’ve left the country and received pictures and status updates which eased my nerves. Santana comes home exhausted and I know she’s having a good time with them. I love Andrea and the team so much!!! Thank you!!!

Andrea and her team at Picco’s Paws have been walking & boarding my dogs for the past 5 years. I haven’t ever had a problem and my younger dog truly jumps out of my house and into her car each time she arrives. She is low-​key so I can call her fairly last minute and ask for help with the pups (last minute boarding). She drives to you and returns the dogs to you so you don’t spend your own money on gas.
I think Andrea has a great way with the dogs and frankly, all animals. I highly recommend Picco’s Paws for any/​all of your dog walking/​boarding needs. The dogs are socialized and come home tired.

Andrea and her team have been walking our two boys for over six years. The dogs run out the door to go for their play dates and weekend getaways. They are always excited to see the van pull up. And even at 14 years old, they get a good run but never come back with any problems. This is the best dog walking and boarding service that we have ever used, hands down.
Recently, one of the boys, Amos, had to have an eye removed. It was very traumatic for all of us, but Picco’s Paws took very special care of Amos during his transition. We now have a very happy and healthy one eyed dog!

I’m surprise that Andrea and Samantha are not on Unilocal yet! They are pretty great!
They have been walking my dogs for one year now and every time I go out of town they take care of them like they were their own.
I usually deal with Andrea and I can swear on my puppies that she is awesome.
I’m a creepy dog person and she is able to put up with my crazy requests, and she does it gladly.
She is fun, sweet and she does her job very well. When I come back from my weekends the dogs are always in great shape and super tired. When she walks them, I come home and they don’t even jump on me to say hi, they are just destroyed and happy. They are always excited when they see Andrea or her staff.
The rates are VERY reasonable and they give you good deals.
I recommend Picco’s Paws because they are the first dog sitters who I truly feel comfortable with; they are committed to do a good job and they really love animals, they don’t have crazy rules and they speak clearly about what they do or what they don’t do.
And just to let you know, Pete and freckles are barking. they agree with me!
