Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
Martin and Caitlin are the best house/pet sitters we've ever had. They came fully prepared (they had read through welcome packet thoroughly before they arrived), they sent the best texts and pics to reassure us all was well, and the house was immaculate when we got home. Best of all, they treated Winston like family and he clearly fell in love with them. They are considerate, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. We absolutely would love to have them back (honestly, every time we go on a trip!). They are fantastic and we are truly grateful for the care and love they showed to both our dog and our home.
I was very happy with the love and affection that was very apparent when Travis and Shannon met the pups. I received one picture on my trip and was happy to see Shannon cuddled under a doggie pile. Nothing like seeing your dogs being loved by others as their own. Every thing was in its place when I return which was nice. I also received a welcome home gift handmade by them which was very lovely and made my day. I highly recommend them as trustworthy and reliable pet sitters to anyone.
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
Jennifer treated my home and furry kids like they were her own. Everything was clean and well cared for and most importantly the dogs were happy! It was their first time with a sitter and they were happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.
Our dog loved Angela, as did we! She was friendly, efficient, handled our large, happy bernadoodle effectively and with love...we could not have asked for a better dog sitter and would be happy to have her back.
Amara was a WONDERFUL sitter for our home and our dogs for the weekend. We were so comfortable with her being in our home, and she provided regular updates and photos of our babies. The house was clean upon arrival home - we would have no hesitation recommending her to others and hope she would consider coming back to spend more time with our dogs!
Delphine was amazing. All 3 of our fur babies took an instant liking to her, which is very unusual of them. We right away knew both our cats and our dog would be happy with her. We came back to relaxed and happy pets and a clean house. We think we found our ‘go to’ house sitter with Delphine. We would love to have her over again.

We love bringing our dogs to Scampers! The staff aren't just knowledgeable and professional, they genuinely care about the well-being of your pups and work with you to ensure your pup enjoys being at daycare. The best place to bring your dogs for a fun day of daycare!
We got our pup King T’Challa during the pandemic and we were stressed out about socializing him - but we found our forever home at Scamper Bellevue and Kirkland. I love this place and so does my husband! Our dog has been going since be was a pup. The daycare feels like a family and I completely trust our little baby with their care from boarding to day camp!
My dogs love it here! They literally start to whine and bark as soon as I park. They scurry in so fast without even looking back at me (haha). I feel like my pups are in good hands here and I don’t have to worry.
Great place to bring your dog to daycare. Bruno loves all the staff and the fellow dogs he meets. We haven't tried boarding yet but nice they have a services like that. Also they offer grooming/nail trims once or twice a month. Very friendly and happy to keep bringing our pup😄 …
Don't bring your dogs here. Exceptionally rude customer service. After spending easily 20k here i'm blown away at how rude their staff is to customers. Also they don't know how to handle dogs. My dog had her head yanked through a crate door because they reached in and dragged her through. When I tried to talk to them about it the owner refused to let me speak and just got incredibly defensive. We came here for 3 years. 2 1/2 we were told our dog is wonderful and behaves so well, then they changed their staff and all of a sudden my dog was treated badly and were told it's her behaviour. Meanwhile they send home report cards that say no incident. Also staff straight up say "you shouldn't bring your dogs here". I would avoid this place like the plague. There's plenty of other places that we've brought our dog without incident. Really went downhill last 6 months.
Our dogs LOVE coming to Scampers! The initial meeting was super quick and then they got a larger report card of their first day. Both my dogs get super excited as soon as they see the building because they know it’s daycare! Staff are very friendly and give attention to the pups! I know my dogs are safe and well cared for while I’m at work. Scheduling days is easy through the Gingr portal!
My dog loves the Scampers Bellevue branch. The handlers are incredibly friendly. The co-owner that primarily runs this branch is super kind. My dog is ALWAYS pooped after a long day here. And if your pup develops any quirks while coming here they do an amazing job at communicating with you and trying to find the best way to help your pup and you. I highly suggest them. :)
I have been bringing my dog, Kenny, to Scampers since he was a pup. The staff is great - so friendly and attentive. I just love everything about this doggy daycare and so does Kenny
This is an excellent place to leave your dogs. They are friendly and are very attentive. My dog does a lot of playing and gets tuckered out, which is great because she is very high energy. I also board her here whenever I go out of town. They are very trustworthy and it is nice to get the report cards, while I am out of town.
Scampers is an amazing place for dogs; the people there are super nice and caring about your dog; I like that they give a report card, my dog has stayed overnight and loved it. The day care goes until 7 pm. It is clean and bright with space for dogs to romp around!
Angie was amazing with our doggy during his boarding stay! He felt right at home in her care and loved relaxing in her yard. She was great at handling our big boy (115 lb) as he can be a handful on walks and she took him to his favorite parks and around the neighborhood. You can tell she truly loves and knows dogs. When our flight was delayed, she was incredibly accommodating and flexible, which we truly appreciated. We highly recommend Angie for exceptional pet care!
Angie takes the best care of our bulldog when we go out of town. He is always so happy when we get to her place and so happy when we leave. She follows the care instructions and is very reliable.
My 2 1/2 yo labradoodle spent 6 days/ nights. Angie was very open and flexible for my dog's needs. She responds quickly to messages, and sent daily updates. My dog was comfortable with her, was very well cared for, and seemed very happy to be with her. I would recommend without hesitation.
Angie is the best! Our dog Milo loves seeing Angie and she takes the best care of our pup. She is now our go-to for out of town trips. We get regular pictures and updates. We know our dog is well taken care of and loved when he’s with Angie.
Our dog is very sensitive and not friends with everybody but she LOVES Angie. We have boarded her with Angie twice now and unlike other experiences, she comes home so happy. Angie is such a sweet and kind person. She remembers our dog’s favorite toys, and always sends us lots of updates. It’s no wonder dogs love her. She has also walked our dog a few times, and she comes back healthy and happy from those too. We are so grateful to have found Peluditos Petcare!!
Angie is seriously our goto best dog sister! Boba has stayed with Angie several times now, and every time when she dropped Boba off, she's like a new pup – so happy! We can tell she's had a pawsome hanging out with Angie. Plus, Angie keeps us updated here and there, which gives us such peace of mind while we're gone. It's so great to see our dog so happy and how much of a difference Angie makes. Comparing it to other places we've left Boba before, there's just no contest. We're even recommending Angie to our friends. So, if you're looking for someone to look after your fur babies, Angie's your gal. Seriously, couldn't thank her enough for making Boba's stays so pawsome! Boba will be spending more time with Angie for sure!
Angie has been pet sitting our senior dog since last year. Her gentle and caring demeanor works well with our moody and reactive dog. I was initially nervous about being gone for extended period, but our dog was well taken care of and enjoyed her time with Angie. On her most recent stay, our dog enjoyed long walks, and sunbathing in the backyard. I would recommend her and use her again.
Angie is the absolute best! We have left our dog Theo with her for boarding multiple times over 2 years now and we always feel comfortable knowing he’s in good hands. She gives updates with pictures and she is able to handle Theo well on a leash, even though he can be a bit reactive. I have nothing but 5 stars to give Angie!
Noah had a great time with Angie! She was very sweet with him and let me know that he was chill during his stay. What dog owner doesn't want to hear that? I'm not sure Noah wanted to leave when I came to get him. I will definitely use Angie again and would highly recommend leaving your pup with her.
I have been using Angie for pet sitting since my golden retriever was a puppy (1.5 years). She is very warm and engaging with my dog and always excited to see him. He loves staying with her. She is very reliable, has great communication and sends photos to us while we are away.
Katherine is great with my 2 dogs, one of which is very anxious. My anxious dog goes with her willingly (and usually won't go with anyone else willingly), and I get pictures and updates about them. I know she takes great care of them and they enjoy being with her. I really feel like I don't have to worry about them when they are in her care.
Kat and her husband put their all into what they do. They take wonderful care of all who boards with them and Kat is an exceptional trainer. She truly has a gift. If you're in the area and want the best care for your pet, this is the only way to go!
Katherine has the best dog handling skills. She truly loves animals. I'm very fortunate to have met her.
Their listed website is nothing but a bunch of spam/virus ads that try to seize up your browser. No thanks.
Always wonderful!
Elizabeth is wonderful with my dogs, and love her!! I trust her so much with my fur babies that she’s actually dog sat at my house for several days. She has an amazing attitude about taking care of my babies. Can’t ask for more.
Elizabeth is awesome, our little doggo loves hanging out with her when we are traveling or working a long day. She’s Super friendly, ultra reliable, and I’d highly recommend her without hesitation, be it for dog walks or feeding and checking in on your fur legged friends when you are out and about. Thanks!!! P.s. she’s a fantastic pet photographer as well, see Sammy’s pic😎
Fur Face is pawsitivly the best care your you family members (pets). Phineas loves his time with Elizabeth. She is an honest, respectful, and caring professional that invests time with each client's pet and takes care of them like her own. I highly recommend Fur Face Pet Care for you and your family.
Elizabeth is absolutely amazing! She took great care of my Guinea pig for a few days while I was out of town! She followed all of my instructions and gave my furbaby all the care and attention he needed. She had a great communication and was a pleasure to have her help! 10/10 I recommend to anyone that wants to make sure their pet is in great hands.
Elizabeth is amazing! First time trusting someone other than my mom with our precious baby girl Cotton. Cotton is our cat fur baby. She is 1 year 8 months and Elizabeth went above & beyond to make sure she was taken care of while we were away on vacation for 10 whole days. She sent pictures daily, voice messages with updates, and checked in everyday. She changed her water and food daily plus cleaned her litter box too. Discarded liter in the garbage and really took over for us fully while we were in a different country. We fully trust Elizabeth for future vacations and it has truly provided us with ease knowing we have someone who will love Cotton close to as much as we do. Elizabeth has years of experience and knows the personality of pets including the do’s & dont’s. Thank you so much for your services Elizabeth! ❤️
Working with Elizabeth has been fantastic - she is friendly, and a great communicator. Elizabeth has been wonderful to my pets, caring for their individual needs, and they just love her!
My 3 kitties love Elizabeth!!! She is so professional and we never worry when we go away. She gives updates regularly and is easy to work with. If you have pets that you don’t want to be stressed out going to a kennel call Fur Face Pet Care!!!
Elizabeth is an honest and reliable pet sitter and dog walker. She has taken care of my dog Rosie for many years. I highly recommend her!
Thank you I appreciate your review!
Celia's Resort is wonderful! I can't think of a better place to take care of my Poppy while I'm away. Poppy received lots of love and made new friends. All her needs were accommodated. I received daily reports of her, as well as a report card and photo! Poppy will be back whenever I have to travel!
It was my first time using a dog sitting service. I had been somewhat nervous until the morning when I saw my puppies again. They did not want to come with me! They kept following Celia around. I could tell that they really enjoyed staying with her. Her house is surrounded by spacious fenced yards. My pups came back happy with their muddy paws. I will definitely use this service again.
Celia is so wonderful, dog loving person. Truly caring and understand dog's behaviors. Left my doggie with her for 9 days. Grateful and relief that my little doggie is in good hands
My Australian Cattle Dog is a regular at Arlingford. He's always so happy to go and play with the other animals and has bonded with the owners as well. They take great care of him and are very responsive when scheduling dates and drop-off/pick-up times. I have great peace of mind knowing that my dog is happy and well cared for while we are away.
Have used Arlingford for years and my dog absolutely loves staying with them. Exceptional care, great service, and our dog always comes back happy and healthy. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.
I took my 8month old Labrador Rottweiler mix puppy here while i went on a 4 night backpacking trip. Dane was there when I dropped off Roan, he had a calm and gentle demeanor and seemed to understand my dogs crazy antics. He clearly loves dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him. My dog had the best time, he loved running in their yard with the other dogs. When I picked him up he was running in the yard and didn't want to leave! He clearly had a great time, and is now so calm at home due to his doggy camp fun. I will book with them again and recommend them to any friend or family with a dog who enjoys other dogs company.
Couldn't be happier with my experience with Danny and Dane. I boarded Charlie for his first time with them for 8 days and he had a blast! They sent me updates while I was away and took such great care of my boy. They were so flexible with my schedule and great to work with. When I picked Charlie up and loaded him in the back of the car he jumped out the driver's seat and ran back to the house to see Danny! If that's not a sign of a a joyful pup I don't know what is. :)
My dog stayed here last minute over a long weekend in May, 2020. We're new to town so we don't have any "usual" places - all the places near my apartment crate the dog all day long (one even makes you pay extra if you want your dog to use the bathroom outside of the crate!!!). Finding this place was such a gem. It was a nice 'home away from home' for my dog. He is pretty high energy, so I was surprised when he came home and went right to sleep! He obviously had a great time.
Danny and Dane did a great job boarding my mixed breed pup over a last-minute weekend. She's not the easiest sometimes (I've had her professionally trained but that doesn't stop her) and they called me for not a single problem with her the whole 4 days. 10/10 very professional, hospitable gentlemen who run a tight ship!
We had a great experience with Arlingford Dog Boarding and highly recommend them. It's so nice to have a locally-owned, family-run business that is doing a wonderful job. Danny cares deeply about his work and it shows. Talking with him it is clear that he is very knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. Our 9 year old Chihuahua is quite nervous, especially meeting new people and other dogs. Under Danny & Dane's care she did great - she even had another Chihuahua friend to hang out with while she was there! The logistics side of things was very easy -- Danny has clear, prompt and professional communication. He was very accommodating of our last minute, unexpected needs and just really went above and beyond. Thank you, Arlingford Dog Boarding!
Danny is attentive to my golden retriever's needs, I am confident he's taken well care of and has lots of room to roam and have fun while he's at Arlingford. Very convenient location for me too, close to my house! I also appreciate how prompt Danny is when I try and book a time for my dog to stay with him - we'll keep coming to Arlingford whenever we can! We don't call this 'boarding' - it's 'camp' for us!
Arlingford Dog Boarding is far less like taking your dog to be boarded, and far more like leaving them with a trusted friend. They are in a home, they are played with, and they have lots of new friends to socialize with. All up it was an excellent experience for my dogs and I highly recommend their services!
We have a medium breed dog and wished we had known about Arlingford Boarding earlier! Arlingford Boarding is a super fun completely cage free place for our dog to spend time while we are away, with plenty of indoor and outdoor space for him to romp around and make friends. Marley seems to always have a very good time here. He is always in very good spirit, happy and relaxed when we meet him at pickup, shows no sign of stress or anxiety and behaves as his normal self when back home after several days of boarding. We are truly grateful to Danny and Dane for taking such good care of him while we are away and for making his staying comfortable and fun. We have returned here since we discovered them and will be bringing Marley again in the future. Truly recommend them!
When we first contacted Pete he was super responsive and he was able to take King on July 4th weekend for boarding. As we did our research we realized this wasn’t a commercial place where they have a large amount of dogs which we really wanted for King We told him he had separation anxiety and said it wouldn’t be a problem. We also received updates from him throughout the day. Pete’s accommodation for late pick up was greatly appreciated since we were held up from our drive on the way to get him. Upon arrival, King looked super happy to see us, looked well rested and fine. Pete said he was a perfect dog and we really appreciate his words! We’ll definitely have Pete take care King for boarding and day care if needed. Thank you Pete!
Pete was an enormous help to us when I was having my baby. He was willing to have a flexible drop off time, and he even said that he would leave his phone on in case the baby came in the middle of the night. When it was time, my dog (who had never met him) instantly liked him and was happy to be left at his house. Pete sent pictures of my dog having a nice time, and seemed genuinely happy to have my dog stay with him. He even gave my dog a toy to take home with us! Pete's services were above and beyond what I was expecting, he treated us like friends even though we were strangers. I am so happy we found him, and I would absolutely recommend him!
We needed a place for our reactive dog to stay for the day while went for a hike on a trail with many other dogs. Pete was responsive & communicative and sent us many photos of our dog. Thank you so much!!
Pete does a good job at reasonable price. Very reliable and consistent. Plus allows late pickup which is useful for travelers like me.
Such an amazing and stress free experience! We were expecting and didn’t really know how to plan for dog boarding. When I called to inquiry, I was met with ease free info and assurance that they’ll work with us and completely understand. We have two bulldogs, and when we picked them up they were both in good spirits. One of our dogs is a lot to handle. They seemed to have no issues and were very understanding. So grateful for Seattle Dog Boarding and allowing us to focus on welcoming a new baby girl while our dogs were in good hands!
Absolutely the most inhumane and unprofessional doggy daycare. Lets just say we didn’t end up leaving our dog at Seattle Dog Boarding but they charged us for the entire booking. So be forewarned… They make you pay upfront with no tour of the facility; which hindsight all makes sense as if you saw the rundown house and the folks that live there you wouldn’t leave your dog there either. Pete wasn’t there when we showed up to drop off our dog. No one answered the door, so we called Pete hoping we were at the wrong location. He had to call a “roommate” to come to the door. By that time, we already decided that we weren’t going to leave our dog there and politely asked for our money back. The roommate said we needed to handle with Pete who finally texted us and said there are no refunds but we could book for another time. I can see Pete asking for us to pay for the first day and reimbursing us the remaining amount but no he outright refused.
So happy we found Pete and Seattle Dog Boarding to take care of our huge 7 month old puppy and our 15 year old dog. They are at such different stages in life and I never thought I would find someone to handle both of their needs. We just returned from a 10 day trip and both dogs were so well cared for and came home happy and healthy. The senior dog had space to chill and relax and the puppy had a blast playing with other dogs. Thanks you Pete and everyone at Seattle Dog Boarding for taking such great care of Cleo and Bear!
Worst doggy daycare experience of my life. Incredibly unprofessional and not to mention expensive, as a single day of daycare is $69 (which they make you pay up front with no tour of the "facility", which is just a rundown house). In addition, they don't make you provide proof of vaccinations. I dropped my dog off at the house. Pete wasn't there when I dropped her off, but his roommate was. This man didn't look like he should be around dogs. These dogs are our children, so if a man can't take care of himself then I'm not sure how I can trust him to take care of my dog. Incredibly unprofessional and off-putting. I knew in my gut something was off, so I returned 10 minutes later...she was alone in a house full of larger dogs she had never met before. There was zero staff inside. I had to call Pete so that he could find someone to return my dog to me. I waited 10 minutes for a "roommate" to emerge from behind the house took my dog and left immediately. This is an INCREDIBLY SHADEY place. It's dirty, disgusting, and probably a front.
They had my 1 1/2 year old Yellow Lab for six days and took excellent care of her. She is a hand full and a very busy girl. They keep her busy, they played with her and took her for daily walks. They even sent me pictures of her playing with other dogs in the program. I think they are great and I can fully recommend Seattle Dog Boarding as a good place to board your dog!
Our dog spent a night at Pete's house during a quick trip to Seattle where our regular boarding options back home weren't going to work out. Pete was very accommodating and our dog had a great time and made buddies with the other dogs. We would use Seattle Dog Boarding again.
Our dog has been with Jessica on multiple occasions now from boarding and also training. She’s so sweet with them and takes them on all sorts of fun adventures! Our pup’s a bit dog and human reactive, but Jessica has been nothing but understanding and helping her get over her anxious tendencies. She is also great and teaches us how to handle and continue training our dog to be calmer. We love getting the updates and seeing our puppy run around with the other dogs and look so happy. Jessica is an absolute joy to work, super understanding, and our dog now wiggles her little tail whenever we drop her off. Cannot recommend her enough!
We’ve worked with Jessica over the past year, who continues to blow us away with her amazing talent for nurturing and training our sweet girl, Pippin. From the very beginning, it was clear that she is a true expert in dog training. Pippin has had issues with reactiveness, and Jessica approached these challenges with remarkable gentleness and responsiveness. Her methods not only addressed Pippin's reactivity but also ensured that she remained the sweet, cuddly dog we've always known her to be. Throughout our sessions, and boarding with Jessica, she demonstrates an impressive depth of knowledge and a genuine love for animals. She tailored her approach to Pippin's specific needs, creating a safe and supportive environment where she could learn and grow. Thanks to her patience and expertise, Pippin has made significant progress, and we have seen a remarkable improvement in her behavior. Of course, dog training is a partnership, and it is imposant that we uphold the routine and structure that Jessica has provided Pippin when she’s at home too. Jessica made it super easy, by offering transfer sessions when we pick her up, one on one training, and helpful tips when we’re feeling a bit stuck! I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact Jessica has had on Pippin. Her dedication and skill have made a world of difference, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a top-notch dog trainer. Thank you, Jessica for your outstanding work with Pippin! It’s safe to say you’ll always have a special place in Pippin’s heart as well as ours! ❤️
Jessica is a joy to work with and has exceeded all expectations. My 3 year old GSD blue heeler mix rescue was challenging and exhausting. He was anxious, stubborn, and extremely dog reactive. We went through four other trainers with zero results. When we met Jessica for the first time, she spent over an hour with us observing his behavior and talking about our challenges and goals. I could already tell by her handling skills that she was the real deal. We decided to move forward with a three week board and train. By the end of his stay, he was able to be off leash with one of her dogs! Through our continued work with Jessica, my guy has become more confident and life with him is so much easier and enjoyable.
Excellent customer service and super helpful with my dog Raven. Jessica knew how to calm my dogs nerves and it’s a complete 180 from how wild he was before signing up Jessica’s service.
Our first visit with Jessica was about 90 minutes. She met Teddy, our 4-year-old Golden Doodle, and observed him as we discussed our goals for the training. Jessica put together a 10-day program tailored to his (and our) needs. She kept us aware of his progress with videos and phone calls throughout his stay. On the final day, we had a 60-minutes training session where Jessica gave us the information we needed to continue the improvement he had made. We recommend Jessica Apperson to anyone looking for a dog trainer.
Sent our 5 month old puppy to a 10 day board and train program with Jessica at MDI and had a wonderful experience. Being our first dog, we knew that getting a strong foundation of good behavior was important. We got updates every 24-48 hours, and our pup came home with the baseline that we could reinforced. We appreciate Jessica and will certainly use her again.
Jessica and her team were a joy to work with with our puppy. Our goal was to have a well behaved puppy, that’s what we got after our in home boarding with Jessica. We are thrilled to have a puppy that responds to the basic commands (sit, heel, down, off). Thank you for your gentleness, consistency, & hard work with our dog.
Jessica always provides top quality training to the dogs in her program, including dogs who have been kicked out of other training programs. You can't find a more knowledgeable trainer in the great Seattle area.
Jessica is very knowledgeable about everything she does and takes excellent care of your dogs!
Good
Tommy was very friendly and professional. I can tell mousse had a good time because when she got home she immediately went to take a nap on the couch. Would give 10 stars if i could!
Tommy was great with my puppy-took her out on pee breaks and introduced her to the pack when she got her vaccines. He was also wonderful with my older and grumpy dog. He understands dogs! He is also very trustworthy and I felt comfortable when he did petsitting for us.
I’ve known Tommy for quite some time now, and he has an amazing work ethic. Above all, he is very reliable, and I know I can always depend on him.
Tommy is an extremely hard worker and very reliable!
