Dog Sitters in Moran Prairie, Spokane

Free Range Boarding is absolutely the best you can do for your dogs! This time my Bull Terrier was literally climbing over my head to get out! The staff is awesome they are always so excited to see the dogs and very thorough with the feeding and medication instructions. They make going on vacation stress free. Pick up is equally emotional as the staff are sad to see them leave! And the dogs are exhausted! They are a gem in Spokane!

From the moment we stepped into Free Range Boarding, it was clear that this wasn't just any pet boarding facility—it was a paradise for pets. The staff welcomed us with open arms and bright smiles, immediately putting us at ease about leaving our furry family member in their care. What sets this center apart is its exceptional communication. They are proactive in reaching out, sending daily updates via text and email, complete with photos and detailed reports on how our dog was doing, and even what their mood was like throughout the day. This level of detail was not only comforting but also built a deep trust in their services. The care they provide is top-notch. The center is clean, well-maintained, and designed with the comfort and safety of the animals in mind. Each staff member is knowledgeable, passionate about pets, and incredibly gentle and patient. It's evident that they don’t just look after the animals; they care for them as if they were their own. Moreover, the range of activities they offer is impressive. Our dog enjoyed supervised play sessions, cozy nap times, and even had a chance to partake in some basic obedience training. It’s clear that Free Range Boarding goes above and beyond to ensure that every pet is not only cared for but also enriched and happy. I cannot recommend Free Range Boarding highly enough. If you are seeking a boarding facility where your pet will be loved, looked after, and returned to you just as happy—if not happier—then this is the place. Their unmatched service and dedication truly make them the best dog boarding center!

I really appreciate the care they provided in getting Murphy settled into their facility. It’s interesting because through this process, I discovered that Murphy has separation anxiety and they took so much care of that. While he didn’t pass the evaluation, I’m grateful that they took time to attempt to make him comfortable, and when he wasn't, called me. Once we work through the triggers for him through training, we’ll try again. Thank you Amy and team!

I love Free Range Boarding! It was my dog's first boarding experience and he came home happy and content. They really care about the dogs and I loved the positivity from everyone. The facility is clean and very organized. I also love how it is out in the country and very peaceful🙂. I would definitely recommend this dog paradise to others!

I have an active ten month old German Shepherd. They worked with him so he could play with the rest of the dogs. I also have a 10 year old shepherd who has had health issues and they have taken good care of him.

We had used Free Range Boarding with our previous pup and they were amazing. Dahlia loved going there and always came home happy. She has since passed and we have adopted an 11 year old rescue with an abusive past. We were worried about leaving Wally since he has such a traumatic past. But wow, the staff was kind, very competent and Wally likes them too. I would highly recommend Free Range Boarding to anyone who wants to feel secure in leaving their pets when they leave town.

Update: The daycare now open at Free Range is also EXCELLENT! We thought we loved Yuppy Puppy for daycare but Free Range is even better. Our dog gets much more individual attention and care which is important to us because he's a senior. He's treated like a king with outdoor playtime where he can run, indoor air conditioned time, nap time, and treats. He's so happy here I can feel his groan when we show up to get him! It's more than worth the cost to know he's happy and well cared for. Love the video cams too! Highly recommended. EXCELLENT doggie spa/hotel (boarding facility) in Spokane, and I don’t say that lightly! My husband and I are SO THANKFUL Amy’s Pet Sitting Service opened this facility. We have an only child Golden Retriever, Henry, who’s never been left alone or boarded before. My dad’s 90th birthday meant we had to go out of state together. We weren’t sure what we were going to do. We toured many boarding facilities but didn’t feel comfortable – until we went to Free Range. Amy and Natalie are so professional and so attuned to every detail, we were confident Henry would be in the best possible hands. During the initial evaluation Amy even found a little “pimple” we hadn’t noticed. It turned out to be a mast cell tumor - cancer! So, before we boarded our dog, he had surgery – fortunately successful – but if it hadn’t been for Amy’s intervention, who knows. We’re forever grateful beyond words. This shows how good they are here. Before we left him 4 nights, we did a 1 night trial run. It probably wasn’t necessary but we wanted to try to show him that it was a TEMPORARY stay. He didn’t seem to want to leave the next morning! That was a great sign. We loved having a menu of “extras” we could add. We got a window in his room (he used it), a webcam (we used it), and a nightly tuck in. Being able to watch him in his room or outside playing was so reassuring. We could clearly see he wasn’t anxious - just playing, eating and sleeping as he does at home. We can’t recommend Free Range Boarding enough.

I have been boarding with Free Range for a year now with our older dog. We got a puppy in July and chose to go to another trainer facility, very well known. It was the wrong decision, it wasn’t a good fit, so I reached out to FRB. Natalie has been hands down the best trainer for both myself and our pup. We aren’t done yet, but I will never go to another facility, I will only recommend and take my pets to FRB ever again. They saved our relationship with our puppy. Plus, I never worry when my fur babies are staying there. They always go above and beyond. Thank you for loving all our pups so much!

We had three dogs stay for 10 days. The facility and staff was amazing. It was exceptionally clean, well organized, they allowed lots of play time and let us bring their own beds and toys. The staff was kind, attentive and welcoming. They were also accountable, meaning they stuck to allotted times for checking in and dropping off, so that it didn’t detract from the care of their already boarded pets. Our dogs came home excited to see us, and were not anxious or traumatized from their experience in any way!!! My husband and I would highly recommend FREE RANGE BOARDING facility.

Free Range is really the only place we feel comfortable leaving our dog Luna. She spends full days there and is happy to get there and happy to come home. She always sleeps extra well after a day with her friends. We couldn't be happier. Thanks guys! Roger and Cara

I wish I could leave 11 stars. Paradise Pet is one of the best things we ever did for our pup. Staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and really cares about your dog. We started taking Benji to daycare around 5 months old and it quickly became his favorite place ever. We also boarded him here multiple times. He always came home tired and happy. Staff informed us on any positive or negative behaviors that day. The facility is clean, spacious, with enrichment classes available. Grooming is well done and affordable as well. The frequent photos to Facebook make us so happy, especially when we’re out of town. Our dog is 100+ lbs and has high excitability. I felt extremely confident leaving him with the staff, they have clearly worked with many types of dogs and know what each breed, age, temperament needs. In contrast, we recently moved to a new city and tried a couple doggie daycares here and can’t stop thinking about how lucky we were to have Paradise Pet. We genuinely didn’t know how bad some places out there can be (dog comes home smelling like urine, dehydrated, hadn’t gone potty recently - to name a few) and now that we’ve seen both sides, I can confidently say Paradise Pet is the best of the best. We miss you all!

We love Paradise Pet Resort! When we first were looking for a place to board our dogs, we were able to do a trial run and also take a tour of the facility. It’s very clean, well maintained, and the staff makes sure to have a safe environment. Our dogs have been boarded here countless times and we have always been more than satisfied with the care our dogs receive while we are away. We especially love the almost daily photo updates! Thank you PPR for giving us peace of mind!

Our dog, Marius, has been coming here since he was a puppy and they’ve always been phenomenal with him! When we added our second dog, Bennett, to the family, we knew we could trust Paradise Pet Resort to love and care for him too. Whenever we go out of town, our dogs stay here and they always have a blast! I also love that we get to see pictures of the doggos each day, they always look so happy during their stay. We can’t imagine leaving our boys anywhere else but here when we travel.

We needed a place to board our dog while out of town and came across Paradise Pet Resort through a general Google search. After doing some pretty extensive research (we have never used a boarding facility or doggy daycare before), I gave them a call to set up a trial session. After 4 days of daycare, 9 nights of boarding and a few enrichment classes - I can truly say that Paradise Pet Resort is incredible. The staff is so friendly and they love your fur baby like it’s their own. Plus they post pictures all the time on Facebook so it’s fun to see!!! Our dog ended up needing to go to the vet while we were out of town, but they were so thoughtful, communicative, and organized that it made what should have been a stressful situation a breeze. Our dog, Ahsoka, already can’t wait to go back for more fun!

Cassie always comes back happy and tired after staying at Paradise Pet Resort. She loves going and getting the opportunity to play and socialize with other dogs. They always seem to recognize her when she arrives and we’ve never had any problems with her care I’m very particular about who I leave Cassie with and Paradise Pet Resort came highly recommended from many friends.

My dogs absolutely loved there first board last night. It makes me so happy that I found a place I can my dogs when we go on long day trips and on vacations. My dogs had so much fun that when I got them home they just slept for hours.

Everyone is so kind. My dog is 10 years old and never really socialized. The staff has worked with him and have been tremendous!

I love this place! Every staff I’ve interacted has been pleasant, they’re organized, understanding, but most of all, I thought my dog won’t play with other dogs when I take him to dog parks, but here, he loves playing here. I love that they post (almost) daily pictures of the dogs and when I see my dog playing and having the time of his life, I know I picked a good place to take care of him. Thank you guys!

Today was Nala Rose’s trial for full time day-care. I was very nervous at the beginning but was reassured by the amazing front desk crew. Upon picking her up, (with a pass!), I got to see the phenomenal layout they have the dogs in. Well cleaned and maintained, and most of all, great strategies to avoid issues I’ve seen at many other daycares! Nala Rose cant wait to come back tomorrow to see her new friends! So happy to join the pack. Here’s a TIRED AND HAPPY Nala Rose!

First time leaving our dogs with Paradise Pet Resort for a long weekend. They were recommended to me and everything went great. The dogs were happy and tired when they got home. We will definitely be back!

Palouse Pooch Playground has been such a great find! Our dog, Mia, is utterly terrified of so many things (vacuums, mops, brooms, beeps, lots of loud noises...and we have two young boys!) Her extreme anxiety would send her jumping fences every time we needed to clean! Heidi and Scott and their crew have been so gentle with Mia, helping her to find her place in the pack, and now she gets SO excited as soon as we pull up. We had taken her to an indoor doggie daycare, but she never really settled in, even with multiple visits. I think there is huge benefit in the outdoor setting of this playground, with the added benefit of far less noise and barking. We are so happy to have found this place!!

Excellent doggie day care for our puppy dog. Heidi is very efficient, friendly and provides a very clean play area for the dogs. Our dog comes home tired after playing with his friends all day. Highly recommend.

Such an amazing place! Our dog loves it. She gets so excited when we approach the property. The owners are kind and accommodating and you can tell how much they love the pups.

Palouse pooch playground is wonderful, heidi and her family are great people, our bullie, meira just loves it there 🐕 …

My dogs love this place! I think the people are great too!

Palouse playground is the absolute BEST!!

Woof

I love the employees and my dog seems to love it. It's always clean and they're super friendly. I love that they offer nail grinds and baths. My dog comes here for boarding and daycare pretty often, and we plan to keep coming! The staff are willing to work with people which is awesome. I sometimes forget to give my doggo breakfast and they feed him or mix up the day I'm picking him up from boarding and the call to clarify 🤦🏼‍♀️

I have a 7 month old golden retriever, Josie, and she can be a lot as a puppy with little to no socialization skills with other dogs. Today was her first day or socialization day at Updawg Pet Hotel and Daycare and it went better than I could have ever imagined. First, I am a helicopter dog parent so I am already nervous about having others watch my dog, but then to have someone else introduce her to a group of dogs terrified me. But the staff was amazing! The owner, Travis, walked me through all the questions and calmed all my nerves. And every other staff member was so kind to Josie and me. You can text when your dog is with them for an update and they respond really quickly! Not only did I book her boarding stay, I also signed up for more doggy daycare because I felt so comfortable with Josie in their care. Peace of mind has no price tag, but somehow this place also has the best rates I’ve seen. Thank you so much for the best experience! (Also, cheers to the new ownership group! Not only does Travis provide military discount, he is also a Vet.)

**Exceptional Care and Service for Our Pup!** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We've been taking our dog to Updawg for about four years, and couldn't be happier with the care and attention he receives. Whether it's for daily daycare or extended boarding, the staff consistently go above and beyond to ensure our dog is happy and well-cared for. They've always been incredibly patient and understanding, even when we have last-minute requests. Our dog can be a bit of a handful—he's vocal and can be challenging at times—but the team handles him with such care and expertise. They never rush us when we have questions and always take the time to make sure we feel comfortable and informed. It's clear that everyone at Updawg genuinely loves what they do, and it shows in the way they treat the dogs and their owners. Highly recommend as a reliable and loving place for furry family member. They have earned our trust and gratitude over the years, and we wouldn't take our dog anywhere else!

My doggo Fawnzie absolutely loves going to daycare here. He gets so very excited to go in and always wants to take his friends (other doggos and staff) home with him. It is a great place for him to socialize and get his energy out while I am at work. I can definitely tell that he is well taken care of and cared for while here.

We have been taking Gizmo here for a little over a year. He was a covid puppy and therefore not socialized properly. Very fearful of others and the first daycare place didn't work out at all. Had to cut my trip short to rescue him. This place has been a lifesaver!! They socialized him and he does fine with other dogs and can be left there for boarding even. Very much appreciative of the hard work,knowledge and care they put into their jobs.

Best thing ever! My 3 year old lab (still full-on puppy) sits at the door every day waiting to go to daycare to see his friends. When I pick him up in the afternoon he is asleep in the backseat literally before I pull out of the parking lot. The activity and socializing helps him keep his weight down (labs love to eat!) and has made him more social with new dogs. Wonderful kind people. Great hours of operation too. They open early and I can even pick him up on Sundays if he is boarding. Bill

My pups CANNOT wait to get out of the car when we pull into the parking lot. They have become so much more social and friendly towards people and other dogs since coming to daycare. All the employees at Updawg are amazing! I’m so impressed they know all the dogs by name, their personalities and many by their bark! Highly recommend!

Our pup Rufus loves going to daycare at Updawg! He knows when we grab his leash in the morning that he gets to go play with his friends and gets so excited. Rufus had also stayed overnight and likes that too. Rufus is a sensitive, anxious boy so being alone doesn’t work for him. Updawg has been a life saver for us. The staff is friendly and experienced at loving dogs. Updawg also offers baths which is awesome because Rufus doesn’t let us wash him often. He isn’t a bath guy, but the staff at Updawg manage to get him clean and smelling good. Updawg offers extras to help their overnight guests feel safe and cozy including treats and one on one time which is also really helpful. Change and traveling can be stressful for Rufus. Leaving him at Updawg gives is peace of mind that he will be okay and have a good time.

This place used to be called Jeanie’s doggy Daycare. There has been a huge difference since the new ownership! Super friendly and always happy to see my pup! My dog loves going here and hanging with all the other dogs!

Jenna, my German Shepherd, loves going to Updawg. When I tell her we're going there she gets very excited, tail goes crazy, jumps around with excitement and runs to the car. If I need to take a detour, she cries until she recognizes we're on a familiar road to doggie day care. The staff is caring and it's obvious they all love dogs. When I need to board her, I never worry about her when I'm away. I know she's happy and well taken care of. I'm extremely happy with their services.

Amy and her team have been fantastic to work with. We depend on Amy's for midday walks, dinner feedings and occasional overnight stays. I love the texts I get with photos from walk or play. Both dogs respond well to Amy (all animals do I think!) and others on her team. They are very professional and caring. Its worth the cost to know that the dogs will be safe, cared for and loved!

We have been using Amy’s Pet Sitting for years now. Both for vacations and daily dog visits when we are at work. They do an amazing job, are dependable and so loving towards my animals. They always give me updates no matter how short the visit and consistently go above and beyond. I have recommended them to neighbors as well and have heard nothing but good things about their care!

I have used Amys Pet Sitting service for two durations of almost one week each time. The service is outstanding. They are timely in getting back to me when checking availability. I also was lucky to have the same person stay at my home and take care of my fur babies both times. Freddy is absolutely outstanding and my fur babies love her! She also is an outstanding communicator and she keeps me informed on how the fur babies are doing while I am out of town. This gives me tremendous peace of mind that everything is good. I highly recommend Amys Pet Sitting Service if you have the need for any of their services. Kind Regards, Jamie

Amy and her team take great care of our pets whether it’s a daytime visit and walk or an overnight stay. They are thorough, reliable and easy to schedule with. They take seriously the care of the pets they are watching over. It is hard sometimes to leave your pets behind but we feel so confident and grateful knowing they are in good hands . We always get updates and know if there ever was a problem with our dogs they would be well taken care of in our absence .

Not only are my pets family, they are "special" too - which requires just the right person who can deal with the multi-page instructions I leave and be perfectly fine with it - complete understanding. Amy herself, or one of her trustworthy sitters, does a great job with my animals. I never worry because she follows all my weird instructions, has great safety and backup protocols in place - and she keeps in contact for the whole service period so I never have to wonder how my critters are or if she's been there. Look no further - but make sure to get your request for dates in as soon as you can because she's becoming quite popular and busy!

This service has been the best! I recently moved and was worried because I didn’t have my pet sitter any more. I’ve used Amy’s service for my cats 5 times since moving here a year ago. They are always friendly, send me pictures at each visit. The cats are we always well cared for!

I knew Amy was someone I trusted to care for my precious animal family the minute she came over to meet them. She spent a long time chatting with me and getting to know each animal individually. She sends me photos, videos, and written text message updates after each visit. Even my most fearful cat comes out for her and allows her to pet him and play with him. She’s a true animal lover and my animals love her so so do I!

We had daily text message reports of our dog's playing and pooping. And it was clear that Amy had played with him after his morning meal because he expected us to keep up the good behavior she'd demonstrated! Clearly he wasn't just "taken care of" but loved up, and we'll be delighted to use her excellent service the next time we leave town.

I started using Amy's Pet Sitting service on a recommendation from one of their current clients. All I can say is...what a relief! What a relief to not have to rely on friends and family to occasionally care for our dog and two cats (who may or may not have time or even want to do it, but will out of obligation ). What a relief to be able to schedule professional care online and develop a relationship with the staff and caregivers. What a relief to no longer worry if the pet sitter is actually there with our animals (photos and texts come during their visits). What a relief to be able to pay online and not leave checks laying around while we are away. What a relief to have OPTIONS for the type and length of visits. And on...and on... I am forever grateful for the recommendation and the care we get from Amy's Pet Sitting. I'd give 6 stars if I could. ;) Thank you!

We came into town for a concert and noticed last minute that we forgot our keys to lock our vehicle. Amy's Pet Sitting was called 3 hours before the show was to start, and delivered for us in a big way. The sitter was amazing, the last minute help was amazing and they couldn't have been more accommodating. Beyond 5 stars. We're indebted.

Sarah has been watching our golden retriever for almost a year now and has been amazing! She’s managed our dogs crazy behavior, helped her through eating challenges, and even given her awesome care during a heat cycle when we knew that was a lot to ask. She has been above and beyond anything we’d ever expect from a dog sitter and is super flexible and communicative. She also ensures our pup spends time getting her energy out so we don’t have to when we get home. And very reasonable on price!

Sarah is an amazing dog sitter!! She has been with us for multiple years and I could not rave about her enough. She has a ton of availability and has always been so flexible with our crazy schedules. Our dog absolutely adores her and you can definitely tell Sarah plays with her all day, because she always comes home super tired. I could not recommend her enough and we are so lucky to have her!

Patty is the best! I’ve never used a pet sitter before and was feeling a little anxious about leaving the fur babies while I was away for longer periods of time. She sent me updates/pictures every day and from our first meeting, I could tell she was reliable and an animal lover. I’ve worked with her a couple of times now and feel at peace knowing she’s taking care of my kitties. She is wonderful and I’m so grateful that I found her!

We recently went on vacation and for the first time, our friends/neighbors were not able to care for our dogs. Our older guy, Buddy has never been in a kennel and has very high anxiety. I was so stressed about who was going to take care of them, that I had a difficult time getting excited about our trip. I found a business card for Ponderosa Patty that I got a year ago from our vet, and called her. It was short notice but she was very accommodating and eager to assist. We dropped them off the night before and she and her husband took time to talk with us so we could get to know them, their routine and to be comfortable. We had given Buddy anxiety medication and instructed Patty to give it to him when the shaking started. She constantly sent me pictures of Buddy happy and our other dog Sammy, going for walks, tails wagging. Riding in cars on her husband's lap, laying on them sleeping in their home, etc. Buddy NEVER had to have anxiety meds! They are very calm and loving with the animals and the animals knew it. I am so happy to have found Patty and will happily call her next time we need her. Thank you Patty for giving our dogs so much love and comfort and easing OUR anxieties!

We have taken several trips and have left the care of our dogs, parakeets, and home to Spokane's Best Pet Sitter. Patty is a most professional, trustworthy, and dependable individual who has shown a sincere interest and care for our pets. We received photos almost daily along with any questions or concerns related to our time away. We go away with complete peace of mind and confidence that everything will be taken care of while we are gone. We highly recommend her services.

“Ponderosa Patty is absolutely the best caretaker for our large number of animals we have on this small farm. She has given all of them great care and we feel very comfortable leaving them in her hands when we are out of town. We have 5 horses, 3 cats, 3 chickens, 2 dogs and a handicapped large tortoise as well as a few bee hives. Patty walks the dogs as well as feeding and watering all the animals. I feel very comfortable with her knowledge and skill as an animal caretaker and my dogs love her! She sends us pictures of all of them too which we love! Thank you Patty!!”

A million stars ⭐️! Patty is so trustworthy and loving to my pups! I feel lucky 🍀 that my pups have her when I’m gone. She spoils them and sends me updates everyday❤️ thank you Patty for your care and attention to my dogs and home. I hope you know how amazing and appreciated you are 💕⭐️🙌. …

The name is correct, Patty is the BEST pet sitter in Spokane!! My entire family recently went on vacation together so this was the first time I've ever had to use a pet sitter for my cats and looking for someone on the internet can be scary and daunting. I am SO glad I found Patty! She took such great care of our cats and made sure that even our shy one got some love too. I am SO thankful to have found her, it made our vacation so much more enjoyable knowing our fur babies were well taken care of! Will forever recommend her to anyone that needs a pet sitter!

“We have used Ponderosa Patty for several years. She is very efficient and my cats LOVE her. When we come home they act like they never noticed we left. She loves on each and every one of them…We had 4 cats and a bunny…and even my cranky old man cat came out for her. She is so flexible with scheduling it makes everything easier. Patty is wonderful! ”

Ponderosa Patty has been so great watching our cat Binx the two times we have used her!! She sends pictures every visit so you can see that your pet is being well taken care of!! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her for our future trips!!

Patty took excellent care of my pup while we were away. She gave regular updates and took extra care to make sure our nervous doggo felt comfortable around her. We will be booking her again for future trips.

Patty was wonderful with my 2 kitties. She accommodated the special needs of the one that is 16. I loved that she sent me pictures and texts each day to keep me informed. She is very easy to communicate with and very responsive to questions. I think her price is very fair for the services she provides which included giving medication to my old girl. Would give her more stars if I could. I know I can travel now with confidence when Patty is taking care of my kitties.

I highly recommend Auntie Linda's to care for your sweet fur baby when you are away. She provides a home setting which makes Pugsley very happy. We would never want him to feel like he was going back to the kennel that he was rescued from. She has an amazing pet friendly and fun backyard for her visitors. Pugsley gets lots of love and even some lap time. He has so much fun playing with his friends and she is great about texting pictures and messages while we are away. Great communication and great rates make Auntie Linda's our first choice for our Pugsley. We have taken Pugsley to Auntie Linda's for over four years and we will never go anywhere else. You can see by the expression on his face that Pugsley also loves Auntie Linda's.

I have used Auntie Linda’s pet sitting for three years for our cat Rogue. She has baby sat Rogue for a few days to two weeks. Rogue has always been taken care of and dotted over. It has been a great experience and I have never worried. Recently, we had a family emergency and needed to leave town for a few days. I was desperate and reached out to her. She was still able to make accommodations and get Rogue a place to stay on short notice. She is amazing! I will continue using her in the future for our 14 year old cat Rogue when we take vacations

Linda is great and she will take care of your pet like her family. Our dogs had a great experience at her pet resort.

Auntie Linda took great care of our 3 cats for over a week. She was very accommodating and reasonably priced. She also sent us texts with photos and updates on how they were doing. Our cats looked happy and well taken care of when we went to pick them up and it was clear they had a great week! I highly recommend Auntie Linda's boarding service.

We have been with Linda for years, and trust our priceless animals with her. She deeply cares about everyone's well being. That being said, she is a pet sitter, and not a kennel. If your pet requires extra care, call her she'll gladly discuss what she is and isn't capable of.

This week will be the 3rd time I have entrusted Auntie Linda with caring for my fragile 18 yr old kitty girl. Frieda has a neurological conditionn and is losing muscle strength in her back legs, so can jump maybe 6 inches, and often loses her balance. Instead of the typical tall cat condo with many shelves, Linda came up with using a wide/long bunny cage, which fit her bed, litterbox and food just right. She always sends pictures and text updates on how she was doing; extremely soothing to a far-away purr parent. Her ability to be flexible to owners & pets is amazing! This week I'll be going for surgery, and I don't know if I'll need to leave her there for 2 days or a week depending on the outcome. Linda didn't bat an eye and said let me know when you know Frieda is always welcome here. Although she often has a mix of pets there at one time, her home is clean, friendly, inviting and happy. I told her last time I was there I thought she was undercharging, but she said I want it this way for folks who just aren't able to afford the pricier places. THAT is the kind of woman and caregiver Linda is. Absolutely could not ask for better!

Linda took good care of my rabbit while I was away for a month. She kept sending pictures of the rabbit regularly. She took great care of my Oreo (rabbit) and now he is back home. Definitely recommend her.

Linda is awesome! She took great care of our cat, and gave him a lot of attention!! She would send us a pic of him almost every day, and give us an update. Her rates are frickin unbelievable as well!!!

Absolutely not! If I can rate this no stars I would! Took my dog here she’s a girl. And this lady had already dogs there and released them to meet my dog and the male German shepherd attacked my dog! Absolutely not ok! Maybe next time you let your dogs meet a strangers pet put them on a leash. We tried to pull my girl away and her dog kept coming and with another right behind my baby, myself and my boyfriends mother were holding our dog and she was terrified! She’s terrified to even go in the car now because she thinks she has to come back to this awful place. I would like to mention Linda did mention she would pay for the vet bill but this not just about money my dog is terrified.

So glad I found Auntie Linda’s! I left my two cats under her care to go on a trip for three weeks. I felt no worries leaving them with her, and she frequently sent pictures of them. I recommend her and I will continue using her services! She is also very sweet. :)

With so many choices we have, we always choose play n stay! I never worry about their care. We were gone 7 nights and our dogs had fun and were well cared for!

I was thrilled to find such an experienced and compassionate provider for my beloved pooches. Everyone at Play N Stay accommodated my concerns for my 16 year old labradoodle as well as those for my very fearful 1 1/2 year old micro mini bernedoodle. I look forward to having Plan N Stay care for my pooches whenever I need a place for them to stay in the future. Thank you to all of the staff at Play n Stay.

Our pup always comes home happy and tired! We trust the Play N Stay team to provide a safe environment for our Ginny every time we leave town, which is really comforting. The team is communicative, kind, and you can tell they truly care about the dogs. We're happy to have this spot be our go-to dog daycare/boarding place in Spokane.

I have taken my German Shepherds to Play & Stay for years for daycare and boarding. P & S personnel are outstanding, professional, and do a stellar job in taking care of my dogs.

Wonderful experience! I boarded my two small dogs for several days with great results. My Chihuahua came home happy as a clam! My Chinese Crested, who has always been skittish and sensitive, came home calm and relaxed. He is now a more balanced dog and I couldn’t be happier. Love this place! Highly recommend!

Play N Stay is wonderful! They have a smooth process, quick and easy drop off and pick up, and sincere care and concern for our lil fur loved ones. Very friendly staff and reasonable rates!

We have appreciated the flexibility of the staff at Play N Stay regarding our dogs. Our now deceased Tassie Etta had issues with small dogs and they handled it in a way that she was well socialized but the little ones were safe. Now our husky Sasha gets so excited when she realizes where we are. They handle her high energy very well so she doesn't spend too much time in time out. That is all to say, they pay attention to the individual dogs needs.

We have had multiple dogs board at Play n Stay and they always have a great time. Even our slightly nervous dogs (nervous at new places) were only nervous at the beginning of their visit. I love how you can customize what you want for your dog during their stay. Were even considering having our dog join the weekday play groups.

We love.love this place. As soon as we turn on this street, my dog gets so excited. They are kind and great here. We even travel from across town just for our dog to be here. Worth it! Boarding-we definitely love the option of peanut butter and cuddles. Our lab loves company so it's nice to know they will spend a little time with him. Also, the option to bathe him while there is super nice. We also use their day care services specially once in a while. It's great. Super easy fast drop off and easy pick up. Easy reservations online and they are pretty quick at getting back to you if needed. Update. Still love this place. Love the workers love that they are always kind. Love that my labrador is so happy being there and is worn out when I get him back.

We absolutely loved sending our girl to Play & Stay! They were so welcoming and scheduling her daycare online was so easy! We moved out of Spokane otherwise she would still be going! 🥰 …

I never review anything, but the service I got from Pet Pals was beyond any expectation. If you have any pet sitting needs I highly recommend them. My two cats were happy and content when I got home and it was obvious Pam went above and beyond to keep them calm, which is no small feat for my two skittish rescue cats. I cannot stress enough how great the service was and not to mention very affordable, even for a poor graduate student like myself haha

Pam and her family have been sitting for our large dog & 2 cats since I found Pet Pals on Angie’s list in 2015. We take between 8-10 trips a year. Some are just overnight & some are weeklong. She is professional & does little extras like raising & lowering shades, bringing in mail, and moving garbage cans to protect our home. Our beloved animals always seem relaxed & happy when we get home. I have recommended Pet Pals to all my friends.

Pam and her family are hard working, honest people! They go out of their way for their customers. We have been always hado great experiences with them! Highly recommend their services.

Thank you!

I have used this place for daycare and boarding for 3 years now. My dog is so well cared for and they play with the dogs. Everyone seems happy and they are very nice people.

We have utilized Alpha Dogs for both of our dogs since 2009 for both daycare services and for boarding. The owners and their team have always been attentive and caring, while their pricing, including the discounted passes that they offer for advance purchase, have always been more than fair. Our dogs are now 15 y/o and 13 y/o and we never have concerns about their care with these folks. Lee, Scott, and your team, thanks for all you do.

We’ve been taking our huge, high energy dog here for about a year. He is always so excited to go, gets excited when he sees each employee, and sleeps well when he comes home. The employees know all of our dog’s little quirks and have helped teach our dog new skills. The location is super convenient for working downtown and the value for money is great compared to other doggy daycares in the area.

This month is the 7th year anniversary for my older Australian Shepard and the 2nd anniversary for my younger Australian Shepard at Alpha Dogs where they spend 1-2 days/week at DayCare and all their boarding days which is 3-4 weeks a year while I travel. The dogs love going to this very clean, open floor plan place run by the same owners for the whole time I have lived in Spokane. I especially love their boarding conditions as they are around all their usual dog companions all the workday and for two extended period on each weekend and Holiday(where there is usually at least 5 other of their dog friends). I am more satisfied with how Alpha Dogs is run than anywhere else I have used DayCare and Boarding in the 39 years I have owned dogs as an adult. They also have the most reasonably priced boarding of any place i have ever lived. Lee & Scott, the owners, are two very special, caring dog owners and treat all the dogs there like family!

Drove by location to check it out before we dropped off our pup. Very sketchy neighborhood and it seems as if there is no one there caring for the dogs. The facility itself has little room for outdoor play, similar to a 2 car wide parking lot. Upon drop off attempt we were met with aggression as we were confused on the drop off times. They were at first saying we missed our drop off day by 3 days, and only seconds later were saying we missed the drop off time by 2 hours. Seems very poorly managed and the customer service is severely sub par. I would advise anyone to search for a different option! If they are aggressive towards the customer, imagine how they are behind closed doors to your beloved pup! Ahh!

Alpha dogs has taken excellent care of our dog. Initially she was very shy and now she has become more of a social butterfly. The review that was posted rating this as a one-star place is obviously a scam. Couldn't imagine a better place to take our dog. There are definitely no shock collars used hear otherwise our dog wouldn't be so eager to come back. Great place with great ownership at a very reasonable price!

I have used Alpha Dogs for my Pit and Husky and am more than pleased with their services. I would recommend them to all my friends! My dogs come home happy and tired. Great service and very knowledgeable about training practices and breed specific issues. They do NOT use shock collars, they use pet safe vibrating collars and I actually purchased one to use on my pup who is an incessant barker, they do not cause harm and do exactly what they sound like, they vibrate. If you need a daycare, this is the place to go!

My dog, Potter, loves coming here! He gets excited when we pull up to the building. You can tell they pay very close attention to every dog, for they found out if my dog would like to play with the small dogs or the big dogs instead of just putting him in one of them. (He is medium sized) they are very friendly and offer a great doggy day care service.

We sent our dog to Alpha Dog late summer, and by this winter we removed him from there. At first our pup loved it. He is a very happy pup that gets along with all people and all other dogs, but it did NOT take long before we started noticing things at home. First, he stopped eating and was acting depressed. We noticed when we'd take him in or pick him up if the owners/workers weren't up front when we first got there, that there was a lot of "yelling" at the dogs in the back....and I don't mean yelling to the dogs as in giving them a command, but gruff yelling and mean sounding. We could hear this from the front counter. Okay, dog's don't understand the difference. They only know by our tones. The owners and their daughter seem to be the worst at speaking in a very harsh manner almost mean tone to the pups. They say they have a great amount of training in "dog behavior," but I've not seen it in their application with the dogs nor their vocabulary in speaking. When you drop off and pick them up, they do make your dog sit, by command in gruff voice or even pushing their behinds down to sit. That is the only exercise I've seen them use their "behavioral training" on the animals. Finally and this was the straw that broke the camel's back; our pup came home with signs of shock collar use...throwing up food, even water, depressed and hating to wear his own halter/harness, which he hadn't before. Now I realize that shock collars are not illegal to use in this state, but to use them in a doggie day care without the knowledge and especially the permission of the owner is unethical and immoral at best. Dogs can't talk and they can't tell you what's going on, so you can only see by their demeanor, behavior, spirits or possibly if they have any physical residual effects from treatment. They didn't ask for our permission or give us the knowledge that their facility uses or even has shock collars on the premises. There's no way they asked our permission, because there's no way I'd agree to this or would have left our dog there if I'd known that they even had shock collars in the facility. It's like they can't control the dogs with their "animal behavioral" training, so they just shock collar them. The other thing about this place that is very sketchy is they will not let you go in the back...like at all. I realize that they can't allow people to just come and go in the back for safety reasons, but you would think they'd allow tours or visits at certain times so people can see where they are sending their pups each day! Other facilities do allow tours. I asked for one at Alpha Dogs when we first signed on...they wouldn't allow it. By the way, we did take our pup to the vet, we did get the shock collar symptoms checked out as our pup was only showing these symptoms while at Alpha Dog. In addition, their "nanny cam" that could give you any kind of solace or piece of mind to watch your pup while he/she is at this facility isn't working half the time ("it's down" they say) and when it is working it only shows a very small vantage point. Not a terrible place to take your dog if you have absolutely no other choice as they have great pups there to socialize with your pup, but the way it's run is a 1 star and only because first, Google Review doesn't allow for 1/2 stars, and 2)the pup to pup socializing that goes on is great. Otherwise, it would be a "1/2 star." Some of the workers that aren't related to the owners that are general hires were actually nice to us and the dogs, didn't hear them yelling, but unfortunately the owners are not kind and if they aren't friendly to your pups in front of you and you hear them speaking harsh to dogs in the back when you're standing there listening, how else are they treating them when they THINK no one is looking/listening? Just know when you take your fur baby to Alpha Dogs that they may very well use a shock collar on your pup without your permission, especially if you have a high energy or friendly, out going dog that they feel is hard to control.

We've been taking our dogs here for a little over a year now. They love it there. This is the only dog daycare in the area with an outdoor option. The staff are kind and friendly. They always treat our pups well. Highly recommend.
