Regina did a great job. Showed up exactly when planned. House was cleaner when I arrived home than when I left. She kept in touch to a perfect degree and the dogs were in great shape. Good sitter and would recommend
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!
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Susan and Jim were exceptional pet sitters for our 2 pups and cat! From the start they were communicative and asked thoughtful clarifying questions that made us feel comfortable immediately. We spent time together the evening before we left for vacation and it was clear that they had read our welcome doc and instructions. They referenced animal behaviors that were noted and confirmed details. They arrived about an hour before we left and gave us all plenty of time to feel comfortable with being in our home. Throughout our vacation, Susan sent photos and updates of our critters and let us know how they were spending their time together. Susan was quick to respond to my messages via WhatsApp any time I reached out. Susan and Jim stayed at our house until we landed at the airport and let them know we were safely on the ground. They fed and walked the dogs and let us know they would be gone before we got home. It was great knowing that had our flight been delayed, they would have stayed at the house until we were safe driving distance away. We came home to a sparkling clean home, a thriving and happy garden, and well cared for animals! Susan and Jim left us detailed notes of their stay and even gave us lots of instructions on how to keep our garden happy! What a treat! All our linens were washed and replaced and the house was immaculate. Thank you Susan and Jim for choosing our home and furry family to spend your time with! You were the best first experience we could have asked for and would love to have you back again!
Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
The best house and dog sitters you could ever ask for! They love and take care of our dogs like we do and do the same with our home. Thank you so much Ken and Jane! You are very much appreciated and loved by us, Jules and Lexi ❤️😇🐶
This is our second time welcoming Michele and we were so happy to have her back! Our dogs Pedro and Samantha love her and it is clear she loves them! Our house was immaculate upon our return and Michele made her famous lemon chicken recipe which we gobbled up and then we asked for the recipe. We can't say enough great things about her and hope you are lucky enough to get her as a sitter for your pets.
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!

Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting has been a wonderful partner in caring for our two cats, when we need to leave the area for a few days, or occasionally for a week or two. Dan is professional, coming to our home to meet us and our cats initially. We had a quick conversation, viewed the space and gave the specifics of their routine. He noted information for their emergency vet contacts, and where all supplies are located. If Dan has been booked when we were seeking a sitting date, he has a great team to reach out to, who've been able to help out in his place. Lynn sat for us recently, and did a great job. We feel lucky to have been able to rest easy, while our cats are being cared for by FDCS. It can be a big upheaval for pets, to have their humans gone for days. And so, to know that they're being cared for kindly by someone familiar, that seems ideal. This service is highly recommended!
I’ve relied on Dan to take care of my cat, Milo, when I travel. He does a great job of feeding and checking up to make sure Milo is taken care of while I’m gone. He even gives Milo his asthma medication using a special cat nebulizer. One thing I especially like about Dan is that the first time I used him, he came over to my house to meet the cat, made sure he knew which vet I used, and asked for emergency contacts. I’m glad I use Fantastic Dog and Cat Sitting Service and enthusiastically recommend him.
We've been working with Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting for several years and recommend them highly! They're incredibly conscientious and responsive, and we know our three cats will be well cared for when we travel. 5 stars!!
Dan is reliable and consistently available. He has always called if any issues have occurred. We have appreciated his care of our two cats.
Dan, and Jeff, have taken impeccable care of my cat over the past 5 years. I got referred to them through my landlord who had used Dan’s services before. Always professional, very reliable, clear communication, and my cat loves Jeff. As most pet owners feel their fur babies are the most precious and special, it takes a lot of trust to leave their care in someone else’s hands. I’d also get photos and updates during care visits, which made me feel really good. I absolutely trust and recommend wholeheartedly, Dan and his team for the quality of care my pet and I received knowing my fur baby was in the best of hands! Thank you Dan and Jeff!
I have been using Dan’s pet sitting services for years! Dan is really personable, prompt, and professional. His staff care about our pets and we can leave town without worry. Jeff (one of Dan’s employees) has had a key to our home since 2018! Your pets will be loved and cared for. Jeff even picks up our mail and is happy to water our plants. Can’t recommend Dan and his team enough!
Dan has been "fantastic" with taking care of my cats when I have to be out of town. He's taken great care of my older cat who needs insulin shots, successfully dealt with the younger ones who don't really like people they don't know, and has been able to make space for me on short notice when last-minute trips have come up. He's even cleaned up messes that have occurred while I'm gone. Would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a quality and caring cat (or dog) sitter!
Dan does a great job!! We have two cats he has sat multiple times. One requires daily doses of insulin.
This is a wonderful service! When I made my first inquiry, Dan responded within a very short period of time. I was pleased because often responses are delayed for a while. I met both Dan and Jeff ( who would be taking care of my cats) and was impressed by their professionalism as well as compassion for pets. While I was away for 10 days, Jeff kept in touch with all his cat reports. When I came back, my place was tidied up and my cats were relaxed. I highly recommend Dan and Jeff!
Dan is wonderful; I’m so grateful when he cares for my cat! He is reliable, always responds quickly, and is respectful of my home. He clearly loves animals and is gentle and kind with my cat. I don’t worry when I have to be away, because I know that Dan is taking fantastic care of my cat!
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.
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!
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!
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. 😀 …
DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET!! 1 star because my dog is still alive. This place is terrible. We took our dog to the Olalla location during the week of Christmas and the elderly woman at the front desk was very unprofessional, angry, rude to my wife and her employees. She lied about the size of the space our dog would be in. When I called to check on our dog, more if the same... very rude " Your dog is just fine!" Before they even checked on her. And then they didn't even check with the correct person that was working with our dog, if anyone was. When we finally came back to Washington and picked up our dog, the woman was quote rude and short with us again, and was rude with the younger employees as well. I told them several times not to bathe our dog and the woman acted shocked. They took a very long time to bring out our dog and when she finally came out, her nose was bleeding. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET!!
I'd give it 0 stars if I could. Lady at front desk came off as quite rude. Almost didn't leave dogs here because of that. Wish I would have followed my instincts there. When I picked them up. One of them was muzzled against our wishes. She is the sweetest thing and would not hurt a fly. Or older dog they let sit in his own urine and poop because they could not be bothered to pick him up and help him out. Do not bring your pets here, unless you don't care about them. I certainly never will again.
If you are considering boarding your dog here, I urge you to run away from this establishment. I am hesitant to post bad reviews, but this place is dangerous and people should know. First off, the older lady at the front is rude (just like every other review will tell you), I could overlook this, but the treatment my dog received here was UNACCEPTABLE. We dropped off a perfectly healthy and happy lab and picked up an injured, limping, terrified, trembling dog covered in scratches, open sores and missing patches of fur. My sweet boy came home terrified of people, cowering from me when he got home, and became aggressive barking and growling at the vet which is a behavior he has NEVER displayed before. My heart is saddened. Please learn from my mistake and take your business elsewhere. Your fur baby is worth it ❤️
Our kitty was the only cat that didn't look like they were on vacation. She's just a sour puss, I guess. Every other cat was perfectly content, some even wanted love from us. But our baby was hiding in the back of a cat tower. Despite her anti-social behavior, she was safe and cared for. We just got her home, and she's kinda extra skittish, but she's a cat so... It was very evident that the owner was not the kindest boss to her staff, but it was only her staff taking care of the animals for all that I could see. I am going to use a different boarding home the next time I need one, because I believe staff should be treated better. I would never work for or allow anyone I loved to work for someone who spoke to them that way. I had kinder Drill Sergeants. That said, this business provided a moderately priced service that was effective, and my kitty seemed better cared for than the staff.
To my readers, I really like this place! I have been bringing my four legged family member for quite some time. The staff is friendly and professional. They are very thorough with their expectations and with your as well. The kennels are nice and neat. They have sliding doors to their kennels so that they can have access to their runners. The one thing I really like is that they will allow you to take your furry legged family member to their rooms (Kennels). To me, this is very important. Although, its hard to say goodbye to my furry son, but it is important that they see you off than just handing a leash to a stranger to be towed off to a metal gated cell and not knowing what is going on. They do offer a lot of amenities for your love one. They offer daily walks (outside the compound). During the hot seasons, they offer a swim in their swimming pool and they will supply them with a frozen Pupsicles; a tasty treat for your baby (extra expense)! If you feel the need and you give them an expected time of return, they will take your baby and give him or her a bath along with a toenail clip (extra expense). Although, I have never used this service, but they have a REALLY cool kitty room. I love looking in there and seeing all the cats laying around in the cat trees. From what I can see, they do not look stressed out. Overall, I plan on using them again. Word of caution — they can get filled up quickly so please call in advance time to get your reservations on the books — if you like my post please submit “like” — thank you!
I couldn't ask for a better place to have taken my dog and 3 cats, multiple times!! The place is kept so clean and smells good Even! The owner genuinely cares and is very sweet, the ladies that work there really take pride in there job and kept me updated and there The greatest as well!! If I could give this place a million stars, I would in a heartbeat! I can't thankyou enough for taking such great care of my babies basically!!!! 💕 I will forever have my animals go here if needed!!! Thankyou again!!!!!!!
Joie (the owner) is fantastic and we are so happy to know her. Her facility is very clean, our animals are always extremely well cared for, happy and smell great when we pick them up! Her staff is lovely and clearly care about all the animals. Our friends/family that have boarded with her have had the same positive experiences as us with a range from toy to large breeds. We have been clients of hers for several years and will continue to be. Our dogs are excited to be dropped off and happy to see us when they get picked up. I wouldn’t take them anywhere else.
If I could give zero stars, I would. The old lady at the front is disgustingly rude to everybody that walks through her doors including her staff. She lets her own dogs wander around the front lobby and pee everywhere and doesn’t bother cleaning it up. She yelled at me to put my dog back in the car when I first went to drop him off which was strange to me since I can’t drop him off if he’s still in the car? I picked my dog up today and he has been non stop vomiting and seems completely stressed out in his own home. He has been wandering around the house for 3 hours and refuses to sit and relax. A lot more things went wrong here with my dog that I don’t want to type out. Completely disappointed with the service we got, especially with the high rates this place charges you. The only nice thing about this place is the young girls who seemed to genuinely love my dog. I feel bad for the staff that have to work under the owner. They should quit and never look back in my opinion, no one deserves to be treated the way that they are.
I’d like to start with the staff were very kind to me and from what I seen, my cats too. My problem is, they didn’t feed them the food I brought with them. I had brought 5 days worth of food for both of my cats and had given them instructions on when and how to feed them. None of that was done. As soon as I got home they both ate a full can of food, as if they didn’t eat at all while they were there. I did see dry food on the counter at the lodge for, what seemed to me, all of the cats. Unfortunately one of my cats has serious stomach problems and has been hospitalized several times before. I hope that doesn’t happen again. I should’ve listened to the reviews and steered clear of here. I’m not saying it’s not a good place but it’s definitely not right for me. If you have animals with specific needs, it would be in yours and your animals best interest to not stay here.
Have visited this lodge twice and both times my wild fur friends had the absolute best time! They came home happy and exhausted. They love the exercise time in the forested yard and I know the staff do everything to keep them fed, watered and pampered throughout their stay. The facility is clean and the staff are very welcoming and professional, they even wash your pets bedding before you pick them up. The owner runs a tight ship and truly cares about all her clients. She puts the safety of the pets first and goes above and beyond to accommodate her guests needs and requests. Highly recommend this place and it's services.
Holly and her team are just the best — we don’t know what we would do without Rocket Dog. We are huge worriers about our high energy dog and in the years we’ve been taking him to RD (for both daycare and boarding) we’ve never had anything less than an amazing experience. It’s become like a second home to him and he gets sooo excited when we tell him it’s time to go to “daycare!” We’re so grateful for this team of knowledgeable, caring, professional dog lovers!!
Love having a spot like this in the city with so much space for the pups to play. The vibe definitely is more like a “homestay” than most other spots which is great for my boys who dont do well in crated and cooped up!
I have been taking my dogs here for years and have always had a great experience. I trust Holly and her staff with my dogs 100%, I can go on vacation and not worry once because I know they’re well taken care of by a responsible caring business. I’ve sent multiple clients and friend to rocket dog, probably about 15 people, all of them have had really good experiences. 10/10 recommend rocket dog.
We LOVED Rocket Dog and trusted them 100% with our lab Quinn. Sadly we moved away from Seattle, but they were so good to her and she was always so excited for daycare. She has epilepsy and they took such great care of her so we didn’t have to worry when boarding her. I wouldn’t take her anywhere else in Seattle.
Excellent place to take your dog for daycare. We bring ours one a week just to get a long day of playtime and tire him out. He is so excited when we pull up to Rocket Dog, it's his favorite place! The employees are very knowledgeable and attentive to the dogs. Very clean and organized as well. Highly recommended!
We take our dog here for both daycare and overnight boarding and he loves it!
I love that rocket dog is off-leash and outdoor-based! They take trips to dog parks, daily. After 3 months with rocket dog, and I suddenly noticed that my shy little dog was running around with the pack and he knew how to swim. Amazing!!
Sweetie loves her play time at Rocket Dog care!!! Best doggie daycare around!!!!
Great team that recognizes us and more importantly our dog. We never worry knowing our puppy is safe and having fun during the day at Rocket Dog.
Cosmos favorite place in the whole world. I've never seen him be such a rude puppy trying to claw his way through the door to get in!
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 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!
Katia shares her love for cats with me. My cat( Inky) is always happy to see her and be rewarded with a nice neck scratch.
Katia, I was in a bind. Thank you for your willingness to take care of my cats at the last minute. Knowing that I could go on vacation and my fur girls would be taken care of was a relief. Thank you again for your assistance. My fur girls and I appreciate you.
Katia has been walking my Corgis 5 times a week for the past 2 1/2 years and I highly recommend her. No worries when Katia is in charge! She enjoys her time with them and they love her! She has become a great friend to me and my fur babies.
Katia is amazing with animals and puts extra care into her work. You won't be disappointed in her services!
Katia was amazing with my 16yo pomeranian and 5yo Maltese while I was in Maui for 11 days. I Recommend her highly to care for your fur babies!
Katia has been a godsend not just for my dog but for my whole family! Knowing I have someone I can trust to take Skywalker out and about while I'm busy takes a load off mind. She sends me pictures and videos on their walks. Katia also petsat for my dog and 2 cats and it was wonderful having her take care of my critters. I'm a pet groomer and have worked in the pet industry for 20 years. Katia is one of the good ones and I'm so glad to have her as my dog walker, pet sitter and friend!
I was so fortunate to find Katia. My havapoo Coco just loves her, and goes wild when Katia arrives to take her walking. I recently boarded Coco with Katia: in a comfortable home where she can use the dog door to play in the fenced yard, AND she sleeps with Katia (same as with me). What a change from regular boarding.
Katia did a wonderful job walking our two dogs while we were away. Appreciated doggy meet and greet before engaging her services. Easy and fast communication. Daily updates offered piece of mind to us for elderly dog. Highly recommend!
Very small-dog friendly! My dog is a small chihuahua and normally we put him in bigger dog daycare and he did not respond well at all. He would come home really terrified and exhausted. This time we put him with Katia and he came back quite normal like nothing happened! Another thing I like about Katia is that she sends pictures of my dog to keep us posted. This is much better than the dog daycares we’ve been to which claims that they had online stream of dog videos but actually not.
I stumbled across Katia's business after searching frantically for a place to keep my 2 cats while I was away for vacation. I contacted her last last minute and she was very flexible with her times and I can tell she put my pet's wellbeing as her top priority. I have been with her for a couple months and I am very pleased with her work. I will definitely continue to leave my pets in her care :)
We used Linn to watch our two cats while we away, and she did an amazing job. It was so nice to get to have them stay at home versus being separated for boarding. She administered medicine for one of our cats, tended to the litter box, made sure they got water/food, and played with them! Tremendous value for the price. She even got our mail for us. Would highly recommend!
The business owner is wonderful with pets. If you need to travel away from your feline fur babies for a short time, you can safely leave them in their comfortable home environment and Linn will come visit and feed them so they don't have to stay in a kennel. This service is super valuable to us.
This is the best place for day care and boarding! Linn is flexible to changing schedules, and quick to respond. She monitors the group closely, and makes sure all the dogs get along. Her yard is great for the dogs to run around, and the indoor space is great to keep them dry in the winter. I really like that when our dog boards here, that he is not in a kennel, and treated like family. Couldn't ask for a better place to send our dog to!
Linn is amazing!! She was a life saver! My husband and I have to travel a lot for work, and a lot of the travel is last minute. We gave Linn a set of our house keys, and we were able to call at the last minute and ask her to cat sit for us. When I travelled, I never worried about my little cats, I knew they were in good hands. I like Linn because she is a professional, she is licensed, and knows pet CPR! My cats are very shy, and don't always like strangers, but they loved Linn! I really felt that Linn genuinely cared for my cats. It was also nice to get pictures of my cats while I was on the road. I only wish that we still lived in Tacoma! **UPDATED: My husband and I had to travel for 3 weeks in a row. We didn't know what we should do with our cats. We don't live in Tacoma any more, and we didn't want to try a new cat sitter for that long. So Linn offered to board our cats! I can enjoy my vacation knowing that my cats are being looked after and cared for at Linn's place!
Linn is amazing with our dogs and has been extremely welcoming every time. She's also very accommodating with our needs. We moved further away but will continue to use her.
We take our two germans shepherds to Personal Pet Concierge and have loved them. We love that we get several updates from Linn several times while we are away, and we know that our dogs are being cared for throughout the day, not just left alone in a crate. We love that the dogs are not being kenneled and are in a home environment and aren't surrounded by a large number of other animals during their stay. Carter P.
We have taken our Mini Aussie Roo to stay with Pet Concierge a couple of times and she LOVES it. Lynn takes great care of her for a reasonable price as well. I appreciate that she sends updates with pictures of how Roo was doing while we were out of town which helped us relax knowing she was in great care. Roo always has a comfortable stay with dog beds, room to run and enjoys playing with the other animals that are staying with Lynn. Lynn even went the extra mile and bought us another bag of dog food when we ran out on the last day. Saved us a trip to the store on the way home when we picked up Roo. Highly recommend them for pet sitting.
Personal & Pet Concierge takes awesome care of my kitties. Even my shy - special needs kitty gets the care she needs. I get regular updates and I have peace of mind while I travel for work or fun. Linn and her team take awesome care of my fur babies! Thank you Linn and team!!
I love Personal and Pet Concierge. Linn and her team make traveling for work easy and stress free. I never worry about my cat anymore because I know he's in really good hands. While their services are 100% great, I want to highlight a couple areas in which I think P&PC excel. The first is communication. This is an important area for me (I'm a writing teacher) and I find that many petsitting agencies and individuals struggle to maintain adequate communication before an after my travels. P&PC have been wonderful communicators. They reply quickly to my efforts to schedule care for my pet. They send me updates (including images) while I'm away. And they are always clear about billing, visit schedules, etc. I couldn't ask for more. The second area is care. In the past, when I would return from a long trip my cat would be all out of sorts from a lack of TLC. Since I've been working with P&PC, he seems to barely notice that I've been away. This is because they visit him often and they treat him like he matters (like he's their own pet). It's not just about keeping food in his bowl. In sum, I can't recommend these folks any higher. I don't think you'll find better pet care in the area.
AMAZING! Our rescue Border Collie, Quinn, had always been a little apprehensive around other dogs, especially males. He spent a week with Linn & Mark and their bevy of guests. Quinn had the time of his life! He was exhausted and content when he got home. It has now been several months since his stay, and we continue to see the positive after-effects of his visit. He remains confident and more social. As a matter of fact, we had a true test shopping at the hardware store yesterday. Quinn was relaxed and social with a male dog, even sharing a treat! Thanks, Linn & Mark! Quinn loves you guys, too!
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.
