Pet Grooming

Village Pet Salon
8247 La Mesa Blvd, La MesaI have a very nervous rescue that isn’t fond of strangers. I brought her to Camryn for her first ever groom.
I have nothing but positive things to say. I was nervous abt leaving my dog alone as I didn’t know how she was going to react. Once we got to the salon, my worries went away. ALL of the staff was very accommodating to my pup’s anxiety and put all the dogs away so she could acclimate to the new environment. Which instantly made me feel my dog was in good hands. They let me stay for a bit as my pup calmed down, and Camryn definitely made the effort to show my dog that she wasn’t a threat. I think the best part of my experience here was that when I got by pup back she was HAPPY, CALM and looked STUNNING !! I am happy that she came back clean, but knowing she came back with no stress beats everything.

Shes now nearly deaf, has arthritis and is on heart meds for congestive heart failure which makes her anxious and coughs, but not with him. We wouldn't trust our golden girl with anyone else, she always comes back looking amazing, like 5 years younger!

Tami's Tender Touch
8841 "B, 8841 La Mesa Blvd, La MesaReviews are honestly hard to do. You want to be respectful and considerate, but also honest. I personally want people to read a review that, I pen, to see the reality and pure kindness from a particular establishment. Dare I say may be even love?Tami’s Tender Touch is a place I can highly recommend.We have been going here for years and in fact so many years we knew and loved Alice and gosh we loved her smiling face every time we walked in the door.We have had several dogs brought to Tami’s for her tender loving kindness. Two dogs in fact. (Emmi and Lady). Emmi was a 12 lb miniature Doberman pincher and she thought she was a 10’ tall horse weighing in at 356 lbs. Lady on the other hand was a 27 lb Beagle that never howled and was made with angel fairy dust.Tami and her staff watched those two beauties grow up from puppies to elderly pups and then on to heavens green playground.Ok, that was an exaggeration. Everyone knows Emmi is raising Hell and driving Satan literally mad right now. And in fact if we all know Emmi, she’s raising an army of darkness to take over the depths of HELL and once Emmi takes over hell, she will march onto Heaven, earth and then the universe. Right now, Lucifer is pleading with God to “please I’ll do ANYTHING! Just take this demon off my hands!”Of course Lady our beloved Beagle is definitely in heaven looking down at Emmi and hoping for “God sake don’t let that demon Emmi free. The apocalypse of the four horsemen will be released.”After our furry babies were taken from these earthly bounds, it did take a few years to regrow my broken heart and adopt another dog and now I have two dogs again.I don’t say this lightly either. There is a reason why Tami’s has been in business for so long and why I returned to Tami’s with my new furry babies (Maya an 110 lb Anatolian and Sally a 60 lb Catahoula Pit mix).It’s because I know Tami and her staff care for our furry babies, as if they were their own.Maybe something does go wrong (from your perspective), but Tami will go out of her way to try her best to resolve the issue. (remember I’m being honest here), but the fact remains, Tender Touch means something to Tami and her staff.They wash, they cut, trim, pamper, use soap/water, dry them off and do anal gland expression (ok that’s nasty) (please give them extra tip for that, seriously gross), but with all that, Tami and her staff do, you know what I witness?Love!I see them talking to our babies. If your little fur ball is upset and crying, they don’t just yell and curse, no, they talk to them and let them know that it’s ok. Our furry babies attach themselves to us. They learn to trust us. Those little beasts show affection when we don’t deserve it and we intern take care of them with all our hearts. And how amazing is it, right here in La Mesa we have a place that will care for our furry babies with all the tender touch in the world.Yeah I highly recommend Tami’s Tender Touch.

Kristi Freeman DVM Inc
3755 Avocado Blvd #438, La MesaAt the end of what was personally an extremely difficult 2023, it became obvious that not one, but both of my dogs had reached the end of their 16 year old lives. My morkie had been in CLL remission for several months, but she suffered a massive seizure on Christmas eve and then several smaller ones resulting in fluid collecting in her lungs. My maltipoo's pain could no longer be controlled, he refused to eat or drink, and was constantly panicked over his "little sister's" struggle to breath. It was absolutely devastating and there was nothing left their vet could do. Because my dogs were always so nervous and scared at their vet's office, I made the decision that there last moments would be spent at home. I contacted more companies than I can remember. I wanted to make sure all three of us would be comfortable with the person coming into our home and was understanding of my need to honor their lives. I chose Dr. Kristi Freeman at Graceful Departure because she was knowledgeable, kind, used fear-free practices, extremely experienced, and genuinely cared. When Dr Kristi walked in the door, my timid little morkie went right to her. I couldn't have chose a better person. She was equally professional and compassionate while I cried my eyes out during their last minutes. She honored my dogs and my unusual requests of being able to wrap them and have them transported in the casket I made for them. She took the time to understand us and was a comforting presence. She made sure I was ready to proceed at each step and answered every little question I had. It was a terrible day that couldn't have gone any better. I wouldn't bother contacting anyone but Graceful Departure if your pet is in need of end of life services. Prices are *very* competitive while services are unmatched. There are no surprises and their partnership with Angel Paws for aftercare services make the entire process much smoother so that healing can begin much quicker. Thank you, Dr Kristi.

5644 Lake Murray Blvd, La MesaThe best veterinarian in San Diego 100%!!!
We have a teacup Pomeranian and we have been to many different places in San Diego. Doctor Nagra is the first vet we met in the last 7 years, who truly cares. He is extremely knowledgeable, all his staff is so nice, caring and accommodating! He took an hour from his time, just to talk to us and to refer us to the best specialist!
I highly recommend him and this amazing cabinet and recommend it to anyone who really cares about their pet.
Thank you Doctor Nagra and your staff, we appreciate you!!!

During a very tough time for our family, she was understanding of my situation and continued to make time for us and my 16 year old cat. She took the extra effort to call me and did multiple things I wouldn’t expect from any vet. I am very appreciative of her quality of service and would recommend to anyone. I’ve also seen Dr Chang here and he is also great!

Pet Sitting & Training

Cape-Able Canines
8150 Commercial St, La MesaIt took awhile to get ahold of them, but they were very responsive once I was able to get in touch. I tried to take my dog for day care and they requested I come back an hour later to pick her up. They said she was very stressed and jumping/biting at another dog's face. I totally understand that behavior can't be accommodated. It was surprising, though, because I board her whenever I go out of town (4-6 times per year) with 6-8 dogs and I've received nothing but positive feedback and videos of her playing well with the dogs. I also took her to full day training/day care last year that was three days per week (9-530) for about 3 months and also no issues. Ultimately, the environment was just not a good fit with her personality. My dog is high energy, so if your dog leans high energy or high anxiety, this is probably not for you.

Out N' About Dog Training
Dale Ave, La MesaJulie is amazing! I can’t say enough how helpful and responsive she was. She worked patiently with us and her training is done in real-life situations, i.e., on walks, in public, in parks, etc.
She listened to our concerns and the challenges we were having with our 6-year old rescue pup. After the very first session we had a better understanding of what we needed to do, and not do, and the training was customized to our lifestyle and our dog’s personality and behaviors.
Julie was a lifesaver for us and my only regret is that I didn’t find her sooner!!!! I would give more stars if I could!

Pet-Friendly Restaurants

El Veganito
5500 Grossmont Center Dr, La MesaIt was pretty hard finding this area. It’s in a shopping plaza food court. Ordered the California burrito, and a burrito from their special of the day. It’s almost the same as the California burrito but it has chunks of potato’s instead. It was very good and a big portion as well. The California burrito fries was crunchy and on point. The other burrito potatoes was soft and good. All I gotta say is everything was on point. Will definitely go back.

The kids love their hot cocoa and muffins, and we've tried quite a few things from the menu, all of which have been really good. It's the kind of place that works perfectly for bringing the kids or catching up with friends. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is always friendly. Definitely one of our go-to coffee spots!

Little Roma Restaurant
5575 Baltimore Dr #104, La MesaJust had one of the best meals in a long time. The salad was just right and the dressings were very good. The two entrees - Veal Masala for me and beef short ribs for my husband were both excellent. The veal was on their lunch menu , the beef was the daily special. Both extremely good value for money. I believe our server's name was Misty and she was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and the restaurant itself. This was our first visit and we will most definitely return. All in all a wonderful experience and highly recommend this place.
