Dog Sitters in Chico, WA

We knew Kate was the one we wanted to watch our kitties the minute we met her. She was knowledgeable about cats and proved that when she got creative in ways to get our kitties to eat. (cat owners know how finicky they can be especially when their world is interrupted) My kitties are typically very shy but they seemed to take to her quite well. Kate texted us daily updates to let us know how they were doing. That alone made our vacation so much more relaxing because I didn't stress about them being alone. I especially appreciated that she asked us to text her and let her know that we had made it home so she knew my kitties were taken care of. Goodness knows when traveling anything can happen and she had our back. Kate is awesome!

Kate watched our house and two kitties while we were gone for 8 days. We couldn't even tell that we hadn't been here, and the kitties were well loved. She was very professional and thorough. Will absolutely be using her again. Thank you Kate!

I’ve been using them for about a year and have had a great experience! Definitely puts my mind at ease when I’m away from home!

Kate is awesome. I needed her services during 4th of July at very short notice. It was no problem after being admitted to the hospital from ER visit. I would recommend Animals First to anyone.

Dear Animals First, We enjoy being one of your customers for over 10 years. We trust you completely with a key and full access to our home. Our dogs often go with us on travel adventures, but sometimes, because of their busy schedules, they aren't able to accompany us on certain trips, like when we toured Italy for 2 weeks. It is particularly on such occasions that we appreciate your wonderful services the most. We know that in your loving care, our four-legged family members get to sleep in their own home, take daily walks on familiar routes, hear kind words spoken to them, and receive fresh food, water, treats, & gentle petting. At times we've missed the dogs when we're away, and you have responded to our texts and emails with status reports that ease our hearts and minds. We smile on returning home when we read the daily log you keep about each dog describing their moods, how they walked, and how they did their "business." The service you deliver is priceless, and it makes our time away from home and pets thoroughly relaxing. May God bless and prosper your business. We, including and especially our dogs, love you. Kayren and Ron Ohnhaus

Genuine caring for your furry friends. Kate gives individualized attention and gives each pet attention daily. My pets were much more calm (I believe) because they felt taken care of.

Just started working with them and their investment and care to our pet has been very rewarding. If you care about your pet, I recommend Animals first!

Kate is wonderful and kept me updated on my pets while I was traveling for work. I'm glad I found Animals First!

Kate and Charlotte are great to work with, trustworthy and would recommend them to anyone.

Omgosh, these guys are great. Couldn't ask for better care for my pets.

Fred and Ginger absolutely love Wet Noses Dry Paws and are so excited to have doggy daycare here in Bremerton. We tried the other doggy daCare in the area and found wet noses dry paws superior. In fact, when wet noses dry paws lost their lease in gig harbor, we drove our dogs to their Tacoma location. With the Bremerton location open our dogs are can play with pals anytime. The staff is so wonderful and caring. We take Fred and Ginger several times a week for playtime.

My dog loves going to doggie day care here at Wet noses in Bremerton. He's a very social big golden retriever mix, and has the best time w the other doggies there. The staff is great and very attentive to him. All around great.

As a devoted pet parent who has been bringing my dogs Jackson and Rylie to Wet Nose Dry Paws since 2020, I can't say enough wonderful things about this doggie daycare. I've had the pleasure of experiencing all three of their locations (Gig Harbor, Tacoma, and Bremerton), and the exceptional quality of care is consistent across each facility. What truly sets them apart is their incredible staff. These aren't just employees – they're dedicated animal lovers who treat each dog as if they were their own. The genuine affection they show toward my pups is heartwarming, and it's clear that this isn't just a job for them, it's a calling. The facilities are impeccably maintained, with cleanliness being a top priority. Their web-cam system is a fantastic feature that allows me to peek in throughout the day and see my dogs having the time of their lives. It's especially reassuring when I'm traveling and need to board them – I have complete peace of mind knowing they're in capable, caring hands. One of my favorite aspects is their active social media presence. Seeing my dogs featured in their posts always brings a smile to my face – it's like they've become local celebrities! It's also a testament to how engaged the staff is with each dog in their care. Jackson and Rylie quite literally get excited when we pull into the parking lot – there's no higher endorsement than that! They've made wonderful furry friends here, and the socialization has been incredible for their development. Whether you need a great bath, daycare, or boarding services, Wet Nose Dry Paws is, without question, the best choice in the area. Your dogs will thank you!

Very easy making an appointment and the same for checking in when we got there. The groomer was quite attentive in listening to our wishes for Daisy's cut, etc. Took a bit longer than we expected, but the overall effect was more than we thought it would be. We will be taking her back in another couple of monthsfor another haircut.

It was really quick and easy to drop off Max. He loved meeting his groomer she let him sniff her out and get comfortable with her. Pricing was more than fair. We definitely found a new groomer for our border collie.

Absolutely the most wonderful group of dog lovers I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet! I’ve worked as a contractor with them extensively over the years at all of their locations and have had the opportunity to watch how they are with your animals for long periods of time. Staff at Bremerton, Wet Noses are the exact kind of folks I would hand pick to care for my most precious slobber factories. Super kind, knowledgeable, patient and attentive. The massive amount of thought, planning, systems and work it takes to bring a place like this together can not go unmentioned. This property is amazing. My pooch is not neutered (not eligible to party) and is usually right next to me all day, but if I did not have that luxury, this place is where he would be frolicking every day! Bremerton is blessed to have these beautiful, canine crusaders. Go for a visit and see!

Wet Noses has been a game changer for us!! We have a GSP!! These dogs have endless energy! Wet noses daycare has been the best gift ever. She plays all day and comes home exhausted and cannot wait to go back. The staff could not be friendlier, wonderful place to send your pups!! Highly recommend them!

My little dogs has been attending daycare at Wet Nose Dry Paw for a couple months and we both love it! The staff are caring and friendly and Daphne feels comfortable being there. They are thoughtful of her needs as a senior dog. I would recommend WNDP at the Bremerton location 100%!

I cannot say enough positive things about Bremerton Wet Noses. 1- The staff is amazing! Friendly, great service, helpful, accommodating. The owner Deirdre is AWESOME! 2- They foster as many dogs as possible until they find their forever home at their adoption events. 3- The facility is fun!, clean, welcoming, with TONS of products and services. Plus more coming… 4- Outstanding and very competitive pricing on EVERYTHING! 5- A place where I feel my fur babies are in a safe environment and well cared for. 6- THEY LISTEN! They are flexible and within reason, do their very best to accommodate my and my fur babies needs. 7- My fur babies LOVE, LOVE, LOVE going here. I used to do majority grooming at home, if not all. After ONE visit to Bremerton Wet Noses, my fur babies refuse! to let me do any home grooming with exception of high level brush outs. They absolutely freak out when we pull into the parking lot and my boy runs straight to the back room and hops in the wash tub. This has NEVER happened with any other groomers. If this review doesn’t get you to bring your fur babies in, well you’re missing out! I won’t take my fur babies anywhere else!

I recently brought my Frenchie to this new dog daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The outdoor space is absolutely stunning—so nice and refreshing that I almost wanted to stay myself. The report cards they provide are such a fun touch, letting me know exactly how my pup’s day went. A special shoutout to Scarlett, who was incredibly nice and welcoming. She made both my pupper and myself feel right at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry friends!

We can’t say enough great things about the grooming salon. All of the girls are so sweet. Moto gets groomed by Sterling. He has a little anxiety going but she’s so patient with him. He loves going now! She listens to what I’d like to have done and offers suggestions. She works her magic every time! He’s a therapy dog at a nursing home and everyone loves all of his fun grooms. We recommend her to everyone we know!!

Camp Bow Wow-Silverdale does an awesome job. Manager Mel is awesome and so is the staff! They know our dog by her name (Savannah). Our dog loves staying there for day visits or over night visits. Totally recommend them.

We enjoy the friendly atmosphere of the staff at Camp Bow Wow and how accommodating they are to our dogs and their needs. Our dogs enjoy their stays at Camp, whether it is daycare or boarding and over the past two years, we haven't experienced an issue with any of their stays with other dogs or staff. Their team takes the time and needs of each camper into consideration when they "enroll" them at camp, ensuring everyone will have safe and pleasant stays. We appreciate all that you do!

Sirius LOVES his pack at Camp Bow Wow! The staff are so kind and wonderful with him for both daycare and boarding, the grooming services are fantastic, and pricing is very reasonable. As an anxious dog mom, I deeply appreciate the staff's communication and the care they take to ensure all doggos are a good fit for camp and the camera feed so I can check in every once in a while. Sirius has been going to camp since he was a little puppy in the small dog yard, and whenever we ask him if he wants to go to camp, the lab zoomie energy is off the charts. He comes home exhausted but happy, the best puppy combo! Thank you Camp Bow Wow!

The staff is friendly and helpful! It’s obvious they love working with dogs! They take great care of our dogs special needs! Our dogs are always excited to go to camp!

My dogs enjoyed their day and night at camp. There were happy wagging tails whenever I checked the cameras in the play area. It is so nice to have a safe, clean, well run facility to leave my girls. Last minute Reservations were easy to make. The front dest was helpful and friendly.

We use camp bow wow for both day care and boarding. She is always happy to be there, and we like that she gets lots of supervised socialization. It is nice to be able to watch her on their webcam. Staff is great and you can tell they are very fond of the dogs they care for.

This was oasis first professional groom (before and after pics). She smells so good and looks so cute! She is a 60lb golden doodle and it cost $135 for all the fixings. It was so worth the price! I will definitely be coming back. The ladies that work there are so sweet! They said she did so good for her first time even when it came down to grinding her crusty toenails lol!

I love the setup of this doggie daycare. It’s a safe place where my dog Charlie to meet and play with other nice dogs 😊 …

The front desk employee did a good job multi tasking, helpful. The staff as a whole is wonderful. I'll be boarding my pup pretty soon and I feel good about leaving him there. 😀 …

We trusted Alder Creek when we left for a week-long trip across the country, and we will absolutely trust them again. Our dogs were well taken care of and seemed happy and normal upon our return. I love their attention to detail during the drop off process and felt so reassured every time I communicated with them. Can’t recommend enough!

The short skinny, these folks love animals! The animal cages are roomy and clean. My husky’s love going here for grooming and boarding. A couple of notes, they are the premier dog boarding place in Poulsbo, so if you would like to schedule with them please call them ASAP(especially around local holidays like the first weekend of snowboard season and any Finn River Event). I really should leave them a 1 star so that the rest of you stop booking them up😂😂 Story time: one of my husky is a rescue and he is a skiddish little fella. It is amazing to see his tail pick up and him getting vocal when he see’s the ladies here! He b-lines inside and they spoil him with love and attention through his stay! Con: They typically book up around holidays around 5-6 weeks out and are typically booked 1.5 weeks out for the rest of the year FYI

We boarded our dog Argo at Alder Creek pet lodge for 3 weeks while overseas and would highly recommend them for your pet care when away from home. We elected the play option and photos, each week we received images of our dog rubbing freely in one of the fenced yards. We received a text from the lodge letting us know our dog had developed diarrhea, they contacted our vet and they worked to help Argo. We were very happy and will take him back there in the future without hesitation.

This place is awesome! The owners love your pets as if they were their own and go above and beyond to accommodate your needs. The amount of services they offer are vast and reasonably priced. They’re by far the best animal lodge in the state!

One of my best experiences ever! Place was easy to get to and staff was super friendly and helpful. Any issues,even the smallest ones, they will call an update. I will definitely use them again if in town.

From one crazy dog parent to another, this is the kennel you can have confidence in to take your baby to stay at while your out of town. Alder Creek Pet Lodge has a spotless facility, outstanding staff, and beautiful fields for your pup to run in. Maverick got a bath and groomed before coming home and this was honestly the softest and best he's ever smelled. It was awesome picking him up not having to worry about bathing him at home after a long time apart. And even though he doesn't have injuries or arthritis he got to enjoy massages from the in-house small animal massage therapist to help with separation anxiety. It makes my heart happy knowing he got special 1 on 1 time with an added therapy benefit. If I could give this place 500 stars I would, but 5 will do. Keep up the great work Alder Creek Pet Lodge, Mav will be back :)

Very friendly, professional and caring staff. Our dog was securely cared for during our trip. We scheduled another stay for an upcoming visit with out of state family. I recommend their services highly.

Great facility and supporting staff! Bryanna has been Professional, Understanding, Supportive, and ALWAYS provides Exceptional service for our dog. THANK YOU!

Absolutely wonderful place to send your pups too when you go on vacation! Our dogs did great and came home all groomed and pretty! Owned and operated by wonderful people!

I have a pit bull and it is always a challenge to find a place to leave her when I got out of town. Alder Creek does an AMAZING job keeping her isolated and safe from the other dogs and treats her like a queen! In all honesty, I actually think her exposure to other dogs around her while she has been there has made a significant improvement in her socializing abilities! Everyone should board their dogs here

The owners were very caring and answered all our questions about the stay. Our dog loved staying with them and playing with the other dogs instead of kept in a kennel. We will definitely be using them again when needed!

Patricia and Steven have a great place . The dogs are happy and well behaved. They get to run out and play in the large fenced yard or hang out with people in the well kept living room. My dog Molly adjusted so quickly and didn’t even want to come home. I told Patricia she must be a dog whisperer .

I have been using Patricia almost daily now for over 3 months while I am at work. She is AMAZING with my 1 year old puppy, he always has so much energy and is ZONKED by the time he comes home. It was scary at first leaving him for 8 hours a day with another person but Patricia has eased all of my stresses by loving my dog almost as much as me and always being so pleasant to interact with. He has NEVER had any problems and when he was boarded for a few days while I was out of town I got photo updates regularly. She truly does love what she does and loves her animals and I can guarantee she treats all the pups she cares for like her own. He is always so excited to go, and it makes me so happy he can have fun and play while I work full time. I never have to worry that he is not being cared for or that he is unhappy. I cannot recommend Patricia more. Your pups will always be loved and well cared for here.

I have been so happy with my experiences using Patricia and Steven's Doggy Daycare, and most importantly, my doggos have loved the visits too. I was incredibly relieved to find them available last minute during Spring Break after I had a death in the family and had to leave the state unexpectedly and on short notice. I'm definitely not the kind of pet owner who is comfortable leaving their pets with just anyone, but after the initial Meet and Greet, I was much more reassured. Patricia told me she wanted the experience of loved pets coming to stay with them to feel like they were going to "Gwammie's house", and that was 100% the experience she provided. They make sure to take only a select number of dogs so each can get the attention it deserves and will strictly adhere to any diet your kiddo is on. Their home is an environment that is definitely dog-friendly and it really impressed me how well all the dogs, including mine, settled in and got along well with each other. I also really liked that the dogs have access to a doggy-door to go outside to a fenced area to potty when they needed. As an extra bonus, it was even a little less expensive than the pet hotel I would have normally used. When it came time to schedule my vacation, I absolutely wanted to use their services again and was so grateful they were available. When my girls realized where they were going, they were so happy to go back and got super excited in the car. It left me with a feeling that my dogs were comfortable with the previous stay and relaxed with the idea of staying again, which is always so reassuring when you leave your pets as a pet parent. In the future, they will absolutely be my pet-sitting service of choice!

We have been boarding our dogs with Patricia and her son for the last few years. They are so awesome with our pups. We recently just had our pup boarded with them for a week and half. And due to weather conditions we got stuck and couldn't pick our pup up for another few days. They were so accommodating and understanding. We really appreciate how much they care for our pup! Patricia and Steven are fantastic! And our dogs love hanging out at her house and playing!

I could not be happier with Patricia's Doggy Daycare. While visiting our original plans fell through and we were stuck with finding a quick alternative. I called a couple of other places, and they could not even get us a meet and greet until the end of the month. Then I called Patricia and she worked with my short notice needs. At the meet and greet I knew right away that this was a great place to leave my dog for the day. Patricia was very flexible and accommodating as our schedule changed at the last minute. If you are looking for a great place to take your pup, I highly recommend Patricia's Doggy Daycare.

Patricia and Steven have been taking care of my dog regularly for the last 6 months and I personally recommend them to coworkers, friends, and family members. She has a large, wonderful fenced yard that dogs have 24/7 access to via a doggy door--which is great for my high-energy dog that loves to play all-day-long. Patricia and Steven are life-savers for me and my best furry friend! I can't thank them enough for taking such great care of my dog.

We used Patricia’s Doggie Daycare for a week while on a trip to Texas. Patricia arranged several meet and greets to make sure our pups would all get along. There is a big fenced yard for the dogs to run around in as well as a doggie door for easy outdoor access. Patricia and her son Steven took great care of Dougal. She sent regular updates to me to ease my mind since this was the first time we had left our boy with anyone. Patricia is very knowledgeable on just about every aspect of pet care. She is kind and very calm. We will definitely be using her services again! Thanks Patricia and Steven!

Our dog Jasper had an amazing experience w Patricia and her son Steven. It was his first time and they took very good care of him! Patricia kept me updated and was very responsive to texts. You can tell they both really care for dogs and treated Jasper as one of their own. He definitely will be going back!

Patricia seems like a dog whisperer! We were in the area from out of town for a weekend and needed a place for our dog to go while we went to the Kitsap Forest Theater. She was responsive to all communication, reassuring and professional. She and her son took great care of our fur baby, who had a recent bad experience at a different kennel and is now nervous. When I picked my dog up, she seemed content and having a good time. Thankful to have found her!

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!!! We took Barkley (Cairn Terrier) and Copper (Biewer Terrier) to Michelle for their first time. They both received the full treatment and came out looking amazing. We couldn't be any happier!!! Camp Union Pet Lodge gained customers for life and we will never take our dogs anywhere else! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

We had nothing but good experiences at the Camp Union Pet Lodge when it was run by the previous owner. We regularly took our oldest dog to daycare, and saw Michelle for nail trims and occasional baths. Since they left and the owner took back over, things have gone downhill significantly. They are impossible to contact over the phone, and can only be reached via Facebook Messenger. I spent a week calling multiple times a day before finally getting through. This will be a long review, because there is a lot worth mentioning. We boarded our (now two) dogs over Thanksgiving, and the following was our experience: Initially I made the reservation to include our cat, but contacted them via Facebook a few days later to remove him. I also requested multiple times that our dogs be in a larger shared kennel, rather than two separate kennels. The day before the reservation, they called to confirm we were bringing all three in. They had no record of me removing our cat. They also had no record of me requesting a shared kennel. At dropoff, we brought our own food, and well as their own bowls. Our youngest requires a slow feeder bowl for medical purposes. I labeled the bowls and included written and verbal instructions for feeding. When we picked them up, the bowls had not been touched. We also brought their own Costco dog beds, both of which were covered in urine and mud at pickup. I removed the covers, but they had been soaked through and were not salvageable. This was disappointing considering we’ve boarded them with their beds at Alder Creek and they were fine. Our dogs themselves stunk like urine and had matted spots in their fur. They needed a bath as soon as we got home. Our older dog’s eyelids were red and puffy, similarly to when he had conjunctivitis as a puppy. We’re hoping it’ll go away in a few days. We never received any updates about the dogs during their stay. At one point, I reached out and asked how they were doing. Their response was “The dynamic duo are doing great. Smooth sailing. We are enjoying having them with us.😊”. This felt impersonal, and seeing the state of them at pickup confirmed our suspicions. Lastly, they only returned one of their collars and couldn’t find the other. They searched everywhere and we ended up leaving without it. Later that day they called and said it had turned up. I really just don’t understand how it was misplaced in the first place. Overall, this was not what we expected or wanted to come home to after a stressful day of traveling. We won’t be taking them back to Camp Union. While it is more affordable than Alder Creek, we are more than happy to pay for the high quality of care there. On the off chance the current owner is not aware of the conditions in the facility, I really hope they see this review.

Best place with friendly owners and workers. I have an emotional support shih tzu and he ended up getting sick but this place helped with loving open arms, they would talk with him and holding him. Thank you Camp Union Pet Lodge. PS maybe more later.

I took my gigantic Great Pyrenees Poodle mix (Pyre-doodle) in to be groomed. He just got too big and defiant for me to bath and trim his nails. Well I wasn’t expecting anything to get done because he is a giant scared baby. However! Michelle did an amazing job getting him bathed, blown out, brushed, nails trimmed 🤗😍♥️🥳! Pricing is awesome! We will forever be a client from now on. Thank you so much for making our baby so pretty 🤩. I highly recommend this groomer. She is also the only groomer in the place so I will be calling majorly in advance to ensure an appointment time. I do not want to go anywhere else ♥️♥️♥️

I had previously worked with this business for boarding and grooming for multiple dogs I have cared for. They were wonderful to work with every time. The only difficulty I ever had was restricted windows for picking up and dropping off pets for boarding. Unfortunately from what I understand the business changed management. This time around working with them has been arduous and I will no longer be taking my business to them. I attempted recently to use them for boarding for a dog that they haven't seen before for boarding, but have seen for grooming services about a year ago. They were VERY difficult to get on the phone and I had to call them multiple times throughout the day. When they finally called me back I wasn't able to answer the phone because it was the one hour of the entire day that I was in a work meeting. They left a message saying they needed shot records for the animal emailed to them, but did not give me their email address nor did they actually confirm they had space available to board the animal. So essentially they gave me no useful information. Again I had to call them multiple times to finally get an answer from them on if they had room to board the dog on the days I needed and get their email address. After I sent the shot records they were very short in their reply message wanting to know when I could bring the dog by without any further information. I responded that I wasn't sure what they were referring to. The last time I had boarded with them they didn't need to do a meet and greet (if that's what she was even asking for in her message) and asked if their policies had changed in the last year. The response I got was not friendly or professional stating that they do require to meet the dog before booking a boarding appointment and that their policies are subject to change at any time. When I complied with their demand of a meet and greet and suggested a time that worked well for me since they failed to include any information in their response about times that worked well for them, they declined my suggested time saying the following week worked for them but again failing to give any suggestions of days or times. At this point I was hesitant to continue pursuing business with this boarder because I wanted to ensure that I had a confirmed spot at a boarder before spots filled up and this business kept pushing out when I could obtain a confirmed spot. I contacted another boarder that was able to schedule and confirm my reservation within 2 emails within 15 minutes of contacting them. Camp Union Pet Lodge was extremely unprofessional in this entire exchange. The client should not have to hound the business or work this hard to give them their money. If you want to board or get grooming services and you live close to this place, I would even recommend you drive to another business further away because it would ultimately be more convenient for you in the long run. I give two stars: one for the excellent service I received in the past, but otherwise since the new management I would give them a one star.

I board my GSD and Berner/GSD Mix with them. The Staff is very friendly and accommodating especially with my Berner/GSD Mix who is very skittish and afraid. The make sure he is in the kennel next to his sister so he is more comfortable and they take the time to sit with him to make him feel safe.

Brought my German Shepard after a last minute scramble to find a sitter after my regular one bailed out. They were great! Welcoming and friendly staff, and very accommodating.

This place is absolutely wonderful. It's so easy to make a reservation, and they accommodate later pickups and drop-offs. My dog gets playtime during the day, so I know she's getting the attention she needs while I'm on vacation. My cats get to stay together in the "free-range kitty" room. They've actually built special shelves in the kitty room to help keep my little guys safe! I never worry when my "kids" are staying at Camp Union Pet Lodge!

Had reservations for July 14, 2023, arrived at 7:50, left at 8:50 without ever seeing a human soul. Phone not answered, message inquiring if misunderstanding about drop off time not returned as of July 15th. Don't risk your vacation on this place !!

We got lucky with having this gem nearby, but if we ever moved out of Seabeck we'd still make the drive for Camp Union Pet Lodge. The staff is so friendly and so very obviously love and enjoy being around animals. Our dog started out being kenneled here, but now we take him regularly for grooming services. He always comes home smelling clean, extremely happy, and well taken care of. It's always nice when you pick up your animal from an extended stay and the staff comments on how much they'll miss him. Makes you confident in your selection of kennels.

Sirius Pet Care is a great, independently-owned dog-walking and boarding company. They also do cat sits at your own home. From what I have seen, they are a lot more personal and loving to their clients' pets than a lot of the other companies tend to be. What's more is they are priced very competitively. If you are looking for someone to take your dog to the park on a regular or semi-regular basis and/or you need boarding for your dog while you are out of town, or you need someone to take care of your cat while you are away, I would SERIOUSLY recommend SIRIUS Pet Care. I mean, the name alone is brilliant... (The Dog Star is called Sirius, right...? Brilliant.)

We just picked up our two pups after leaving them for their very first ever boarding experience. We were a bit concerned about how they would do, but Connie obviously takes great care of her furry visitors. Her place is always very clean and all her guests appear to be happy. Pricing is competitive with other boarders in this area.

Our little girl was so wonderfully cared for while we were away. Highly recommend Blue Collar South.

We have boarded our dog Leo with Connie since he was a puppy (four years now) and the experience has always been outstanding. Connie has been thoughtful about where she places Leo within her kennels and often places Leo next to other small dogs. Connie is easy to get ahold of and communicate with and has been a reliable and no nonsense border. She keeps her kennels clean and organized and truly loves the animals that she boards. Leo is always in a good mood when we come to pick him up. Connie is highly recommended!

I have shopped for boarding before and never thought I'd be able to find something affordable. Connie's rates are very competitive with surrounding boarding in this area. She keeps the dogs on a schedule, they're safe, warm and fed and my dog always comes back to me happy and healthy. I really like how each dog has their own inside kennel with a dog door to their own outside kennel. As a person, Connie is absolutely delightful and fun to chat with. She is very flexible about pick up and drop off times, which I find to be a huge advantage.I have hired this business 4 times now and I will definitely keep coming back. I highly reccomend this business.

I would not recommend this place. Had heard good things from reviews. However after having our dog there for 1 nite and half a day she called for us to pick up our senior pug. She was told upon drop off that he had never been in a kennel before. He is also deaf and has anxiety. Upon pick up at her chosen time per our conversation. She never got up from her backyard. We asked about pick up and she said go help yourself. To us this was horrible customer service. No explanation or I am sorry it did not work out or even a refund. Hope this sheds some light.

We've been using Blue Collar Kennels for several years. Connie, the owner is fantastic. The runs are always clean, the dogs have clean bedding and you can tell that she loves her work.

We love Connie and the excellent services she provides with love and compassion... It doesn't get any better. Our companion has the freedom to be inside or outside at will. Love, love, love this lady! So happy we found you.

I've been bringing dogs to Connie for over 15 years. Her prices are the lowest in town. my dog is always happy to come see her and always sad to leave.

The service is excellent, very good compassionate care for our 6lb poodle!

Connie is great with our dogs.

Lady Di doggy daycare and boarding is fantastic. Our dog, Pippi is actually pretty shy and was very nervous with our previous doggy day care. Now she runs up the stairs to see her friends! Pippi clearly adores everyone who is at Lady Di. We feel totally comfortable boarding her there too. One less thing to worry about when we have to travel. We have also used Lady Di's for in home pet care for our cat, Sophie. We were totally confident that she would get great care while we were gone and we were right. Sophie was happy to see us but happy, healthy, and friendly when we returned. Thank you to everyone at Lady Di Pet chaperone. I can't recommend them enough!

My labradoodle loves Lady Di Pet Chaperone! Kaia goes several days per week and has boarded. She’s always happy to get dropped off and adores the staff! So glad we found Lady Di’s!

Great place for small dogs. They take care of your pets like they are their own in an open environment. My dogs had a great vacation there! Staff is amazing. Will definitely be bringing my kids back.

It's tough to let someone into your home when you're traveling, so finding someone like Sarah - kind, trustworthy, reliable... and a true animal lover is wonderful. Sarah is simply amazing. We've taken a couple of trips to care for ailing family members and she's provided home visit care for our shy cat, Tucker. Not only does she do the basics - feeding, cleaning the box, giving pets (if he lets her get close enough) - she also reports on anything unusual that she happens to see. Knowing she's here to care for Tucker has helped us focus on family matters without worrying about how our kitty is doing in our absence. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Sarah and her team. My active goldendoodle loved going to daycare sessions ahead of my 12-day trip overseas. I felt totally relaxed leaving her there. It's obvious they take care. I would totally use them again!

We are so grateful to Lady Di Pet Chaperone and staff for taking such wonderful care of our 5 month old puppy. I was forced to find a daycare after getting a not so nice note from a neighbor. I had seen this place close to where I live so I decided to check them out after doing research and reading reviews. After completing the application and sending an e-mail, I was contacted immediately. He has been going there almost two months and he is a very happy dog. He is excited to go and gets home exhausted from playing with his friends all day. Because of his positive interactions and the great care from the staff, he is friendly around people and other dogs. As for me, I am able to go to work without feeling guilty because I know he is in good hands. It is evident that Sarah and her staff really love and care about what they do.

Excellent place to care for dogs while out of town. I am very confident to leave Bowie with Sara and her team ❤️ highly recommended.

Sarah and team are amazing. Our puppy absolutely loves going. They take such great care of him and are so communicative. We are so incredibly thankful to have them in our lives.

Huge thank you to Lady Di for watching our Golden Doodle over the past few years! Everyone at Lady Di is professional with a great attitude, and it definitely was the highlight of the work week for our Pup, who could not wait to get there each morning and was always exhausted when we came to pick her up. Thank you, Lady Di!

Best care ever for our puppy! They make sure our boy is active and enjoying the time socializing with other dogs.

We had a wonderful experience with our 3 dogs. Sue is very friendly and professional. You can tell that she loves animals and truly cares about their well-being. I am very particular about who watches our dogs. Ww are so happy we found Cold Nose Warm Heart!

Cold Nose Warm Heart is a top notch pet service. Sue truly cares about each of the animals, big or small, and gives them excellent care. We’ve used her on many occasions for our pup and highly recommend her.

We engaged Cold Noses to look after our cat Sasha and everything went smoothly. Sue took the time to meet up with Sasha and understand our cat’s needs. She sent regular updates while were away and we came home to a happy and healthy cat. We trust Sue/Cold Noses implicitly with our cat and would be more than comfortable with Cold Noses looking after our cat in the future

Sue is the best! She is warm, caring, and professional in all aspects of her service. We received daily photos and texts and found a nice report card and thank-you note upon arriving home. We felt so comfortable leaving Rosie in her care. We couldn’t have been more pleased. I highly recommend Cold Nose Warm Heart!

Sue has been great to work with! She happens to be my mom’s neighbor and we met and talked in her driveway. She has been organized and efficient, and my two senior animals love when she visits.

Sue Etsy is an amazing pet sitter & animal lover. She’s very organized starting with a meet & greet, After going thru our plans she was concerned about the long time between her last visit & my arrival. She suggested I add an evening appt for Romeo which I totally appreciated. Her care of Romeo was spot on & all his needs were met. One other thing - she told me Romeo is a “social eater” something I hadn’t realized. Now Romeo comes to me to escort him to food dish enjoys petting as he purrs loudly while eating. This made us closer.

Sue is a true animal lover, she is dedicated to her dogs as well as others. If you have her watch your pet you can be assured that they will get the best of care.

Sue took care of my kitties while I was away and even sent me pics of them each day, which I really appreciated. She also took great care of my home, getting mail, watering plants and cleaning up any unexpected messes made by kitties. 5 star service for sure, I highly recommend!

Sue is very caring and loves the dogs. Bella is our baby and completely comfortable leaving her there.

Like many dog owners, my cavalier is one of the family. I’m a bit over protective and certainly concerned for not only his health but his daily love of life. Where to leave him while going on vacation was a difficult decision until we learned about Rosedale Pet Resort. The personal care and attention he receives there and the upscale facilities make that decision easy, now. He has been going there 3 to 4 times a year for four years. We have always been very happy with the personal care he gets and the pictures and updates received. He always seems excited to be there when we drop him off and always excited to see us when we pick him up: much like we are excited to get to our vacation spot and then happy to be home once again. It’s always hard to leave my sidekick behind but I never have to worry about his welfare at Rosedale. I truly believe we both end up with enjoyable vacations.

Couldn’t ask for a better place to board our boy. I’ve boarded two of our dogs before and Amy is amazing as always, but this was the first time my Newfie boarded alone in the 12 years of his life. We recognized that he wasn’t doing well with riding the car long distance and with the summer heat, we thought he’d do better boarding. I was naturally concerned, but Amy knew him and reassured me that he’d do fine. She couldn’t have been more right. She sent us pictures daily and he looked so happy that I had the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation even though it was without him this time. There honestly is no better place for dedicated attention to the wellbeing of dogs, especially seniors. Our dog really came to life having been blessed with so much love and attention this weekend.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience at Rosedale Pet Resort. Both my dog and cat stayed over Christmas Break and Mel sent me pictures everyday of both of them, letting me know how they were doing. Where the extraordinary service came in was when our flight got cancelled and extended for 4 days because of bad weather. Without missing a step Mel said she would keep our pets as long as we needed and to not worry. I had only packed enough food for the week they would be there, so Mel and her husband Jon went out in the snow and bought both our cat and dog their food! I was so overwhelmed with emotion. What an amazing small business to do this! We ended up getting in super late on New Years Eve so Mel kept them another night for us free of charge and said that Jon would even deliver the both of them to us in the afternoon. I am so appreciative to Mel, Jon and Rosedale Pet Resort. You can tell how much they love animals. I will definitely continue to use them in the future.

Mel took such good care of my three animals which consist of two seniors (cat and dog) and a younger dog. Mel was so good at communicating with me daily, sending photos and updates on each of them it made being away from them much easier. She offers the best customer service that I have ever received and I will not go anywhere else to board my animals moving forward. Highly recommend Rosedale Pet Resort!!!

Today was our 5 month old puppy’s first visit. He has had very little interaction with other dogs or people. Amy was amazing, gentle and understanding . She made Ollie’s visit as positive as possible. He came home at peace. We feel extremely grateful to have found this pet resort.

I cannot say enough positive things about Mel and the Rosedale Pet Resort! We took our 3 year old goldendoodle to stay for the weekend while we attended a wedding. Drop off was easy, they gave Chewie time to get acclimated and then he had the best time playing and enjoying his weekend. I know, because Mel kept me updated with texts and pics throughout the weekend! It can be a little nerve wracking when you try a new boarding facility, but Rosedale Pet Resort made sure I was comfortable and reassured all weekend. After playing hard all weekend (and possibly rolling around I. The mud! 😜) it was such an amazing bonus to pick up our freshly bathed pup! Booking was so easy online as well. I was able to request the reservation when I was thinking about it and not try to remember during a hectic work day. I would highly recommend Mel and the Rosedale Pet Resort! Chewie can’t wait to go back!

Amy was fabulous with our dog George. He stayed for 10 days and had a terrific time on his daily walks. I would definitely recommend Rosedale Pet Resort. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby.

This was our first time using Rosedale Pet Resort for our eleven year old pup. From the first interaction with Mel, it was clear how passionate she is about taking care of animals. Rosedale Pet Resort stands by its name; it has a small “boutique” feel to it with personalized care. The grounds are fully fenced with trails and grassy areas for the pups to get lots of exercise. The “Deluxe Sleepaway Campout/Dog Bunkhouse” is private, secure and clean with a comfy dog bed and plenty of room to move around- there are no crates which is a big plus! Mel provided me with lots of pictures and updates each day and I could tell how much fun our pup was having playing with the other dogs. It was wonderful knowing that my pup was being so well taken care of. The icing on the cake was that Mel gives all dogs a bath just before pick-up time. My pup was so soft and smelled heavenly! We have the highest praise for Mel and look forward to using her services again.

THANK YOU to Mel, Jon and the Perry Kids for loving our dogs like they were your own while we went on a mini-vacation. We were beyond impressed with the ease of making an appointment via your website, your attention to detail to ensure the dogs needs are met while keeping them safe and having fun while they had their own vacation! Rosedale Pet Resort is exactly what Gig Harbor needed and we are lucky to have a local family care for our loved ones as much as they do. Our previous kennels felt cold/drop your dog and leave kind of places. The Perry's made us feel welcome and put our minds at ease as we were worried about leaving our Olde English Bulldogge because he is a bulldog! Stubborn, doesn't play nice all the time and loves to hog all the bed/food/treats! Mel assured us he would be loved, cared for and welcomed. Mel took the time to introduce Russell to others, gave him his allergy meds and made sure he had "his space" when he needed it. Lola our Boxer loved her time as well. Jon and Mel took the extra time to send us pictures and give us updates on them both. You could see the smiles on our dogs faces!! They were have an amazing time which made our time away even more enjoyable. BONUS: Lola and Russell got a bath before we picked them up which is included with the stay! We never had a kennel do this or felt this at ease with any other kennel. They are now home happy, clean and exhausted!! If anyone needs a place for their dog or cat we would HIGHLY recommend Mel & Jon Perry at the Rosedale Pet Resort! Thank you for caring and loving our dogs so much!!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mel. I had several questions before my reservation and she answered them all in a timely manner. My two senior puggles stayed Monday-Friday while I was on a work trip. One of my dogs has several medication needs and behavioral quirks and Mel was willing to take them all on at no additional charge. I got regular updates along with adorable pictures and when my flight was delayed she even let me pick up after hours. I would board my dogs here again in a heartbeat, you can tell they are treated with care!
