Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!
Julia was an amazing house sitter and dog sitter! She sent me photos and updates every day, she took my pup Jordan on long walks and gave him the love, care, and patience that he needs. She was so easy and comfortable to communicate with and she left the house so clean and tidy for when I came back. Definitely recommend her!!!
Jasmine is a five-star sitter. She is everything you want in a sitter when you go away and leave your beloved pet and home. She is reliable, communicative, respectful, and flexible. We had no worries about our dog or home while we were away, and will be having Jasmine sit for us again soon. Our home was immaculate when we got home, and our dog was obviously well-cared-for. Can't say enough good things about this wonderful human.
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
Wendy sat for us on three occasions this Summer and I can’t say enough good things about her. The dogs were well taken care of and she was, organized, tidy, and responsible. It’s great to find a house/pet sitter that you can rest easy knowing everything is taken care of. We are hoping she will want to spend more time in the PNW!
Great sitter and kept in contact regularly. Would gladly have her sit for my dog again.
Ray and Lynn are absolutely the best pet sitters you could ask for. They were extremely responsive to texts and emails and chatted with us over WhatsApp before the sit. They were very flexible and arrived the night before our sit so we could leave early the next morning. They even brought us ice cream because it was Joe's birthday the day they arrived. Very thoughtful of them. They are very friendly, relaxed people that are easy to talk to. Our dogs immediately bonded to Lynn upon their arrival. The first morning our cat managed to sneak outside and was MIA overnight despite their valiant efforts to get him to return. Ray tried to capture him but our cat fought with him and escaped again before eventually returning the next morning. Unfortunately Ray was scratched and bit by the cat during this struggle. He developed an infection in his hand. We did offer to come home or find a replacement sitter so they could return to the US but they were able to get medical attention here and antibiotics. They are so kind and didn't want to ruin our vacation! Two days before we were to arrive home the infection in Ray's hand took a turn for the worse and they had no choice but to head home to the US to get immediate medical care. They waited for our friend to arrive before departing. We were so impressed with them that even under these stressful circumstances they cleaned our house and laundered the sheets. Our kitchen cupboards looked better organized than before we left. Our garden was watered and well cared for during the heat wave. They were excellent at sending updates and photos throughout the sit. Our dogs were very happy and well cared for. We cannot recommend them highly enough!
Romina and Ignas took amazing care of our two dogs and home while we were away! One of our dogs, Beau, is extremely high energy and it takes a special person so make sure he gets enough mental and physical stimulation each day. Romina kept us in the loop of his trips to parks and outdoor excursions. She was very thoughtful and responsive during our time away. Additionally, our home was in pristine shape when we returned from our trip. The rooms were clean and tidy and Romina left us such a thoughtful note. Romina and Ignas are top notch sitters and I'd highly recommend them to anyone with pets! Thank you so much, Romina and Ignas. Our dogs were so well cared for and loved.
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!!

My wife and I went on a two-week honeymoon and we needed care for our four cats. We know four is a lot so we were a little nervous but we now have no reservations whatsoever about recommending Grity City Kitty! Sharyn responds very quickly to email inquiries and helped put our minds at ease. We were able to see where our kitties would be staying once we dropped them off and they had a whole room with lots of toys, tunnels, and cat trees etc to themselves which was fantastic. 😻. We only needed to bring their food and carriers - everything else was provided. Sharyn provided email updates with pictures throughout our trip which we were always happy to see. When we picked them up after getting home, all four were happy and healthy and were in their carriers ready to go at the appointed time. 😸 We are very happy with the service and will definitely be back when the need arises again!
This will forever be my choice for boarding for my cat, Aladdin! Sharyn was absolutely amazing! She immediately put my mind at ease. She gave him love and attention (which my cat needs a lot of). She also sent us photos and text messages every day! It was so nice having the peace of mind that he was being fed, cuddled and taken care of. I would 100% recommend! The cat condos are also so spacious! I’m definitely going to go with Grit City Kitty next time we are out of town!
Our top choice for cat boarding! We were able to enjoy a trip abroad knowing our cat was in the best care and not stuck all day in a boarding kennel. Sharyn prepared the best cat room for our cat’s needs and kept us updated with sweet pics of our cat while we were away. She also works professionally with cats and cat fosters. Grit City Kitty will always be our first choice for our baby. 5+ stars.
I love Grit City Kitty! The owner, Sharyn, is very knowledgeable about cats and treated my cats like they were her own. I got pictures and updates of my cats during their stay which really put my mind at ease. Definitely recommend Grit City Kitty to anyone looking for cat care!
I highly recommend Grit City Kitty! They provide home visits, and our cat was well cared for during our vacation. Grit City Kitty gave us peace of mind, knowing that their provider is knowledgable and experienced. If I could add 10 stars I would. Don't hesitate to book with them!!
My princess was wonderfully taken care of! She's simply the best cat boarding in Tacoma. I will always be going here if I ever need to board my cat again.
Sharyn is incredible and took amazing care of my cat while I was moving. Lots of updates and I love the individual suites for the guest cats.
Sharyn was very friendly, gave frequent updates, and took very good care of my two kittens while I was away for vacation. Will definitely board my kittens with her again!
I really trust Sharyn with my cats and my home. She is communicative, on time, trustworthy/diligent/aware, and dedicated to providing a positive experience for both the owner and the cats. I have needed many home visits and the cats just love her—even the standoffish one. They can tell she’s a cat lover! I have a slightly more complicated food and sometimes medication regime and she always handles with ease. She did a free meet and greet the first time to ensure a smooth transition into her care, answered all my questions and made me feel confident in her service. She also sends great photos of them during her visits which is always appreciated. I’ve seen the large and cozy cat boarding room and was impressed and think it’s a great option for those who need it. I have senior kitties who get quite stressed with transport so I’ve opted for twice daily home visits, which is more expensive per day but still a great value when you consider that she spends quality time with them in addition to the feeding/litter box scooping needs. Plus it’s worth a lot to be able to trust someone wholeheartedly with your house key/alarm code. She really goes above and beyond while the cats are in her care and in general once you’re a client. Hire Grit City Kitty if you can!
Sharyn took great care of our two cats while we were away. We were nervous because one cat was recovering from a serious health condition (a complete urinary obstruction) and needed close observation in case it recurred. Sharyn already had first-hand experience with that condition and knew how to handle it, plus - because our cats stayed with her, and her business is in her home - she was able to keep a really close eye on him. Both cats did really well under Sharyn’s expert care and we were very relieved and grateful. Sharyn truly knows cats and there are enormous advantages to the fact that her business is located in her home, particularly if you have a medically fragile cat who needs close attention.
I cannot recommend Samantha enough to take care of your pups! My guy is a bit standoffish with new people but took right to Samantha and she’s watched him a handful of times at this point. I can rest easy being out of town with Samantha taking care of him. She gives me regular updates on my fur baby and sends pictures to reassure me that he is safe, comfortable, and having a blast!
I can't say enough good things Samantha! From the moment I met them, I knew my dog was in great hands. They were warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. My dog, Rufus, is usually a bit shy with new people, but they took to Samantha right away. Throughout the entire stay, she kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was happy, well-cared for, and having a great time. When I returned, Rufus was relaxed, well-fed, and even seemed a little disappointed to leave! Samantha went above and beyond, not only taking care of Rufus's basic needs but also ensuring they got plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. It's obvious that they truly love what they do, and it shows in the way they care for animals.
Samantha was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Duke! She provided frequent updates and tons of pictures, which was a huge improvement over past sitters. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about Duke’s well-being. He got to play with her two dogs, and I could tell he was having the best time—by 9:30 a.m. on the first day, he had already hit his 18,000-step goal on his GPS collar! Samantha’s friendly demeanor and attention to Duke’s needs made me feel totally at ease. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her next time. Thank you, Samantha, for all the special care you put into taking care of Duke!
Samantha and Anthony are amazing! We recently moved to WA and were looking for pet sitters for our two dogs and two cats. They came highly recommended and did not disappoint! They are always so happy to see the animals and take such good care of them. Our dogs can be nervous around pet sitters, and Anthony and Samantha are so patient and caring with them. It gives me a lot of comfort as a dog mom!
I am delighted to share my experiences with Samantha, our exceptional dog sitter, who has provided unparalleled care for our beloved furry family members for years. Samantha is not just a dog sitter; she is a true animal lover with a deep understanding of dogs' needs and behaviors. Her dedication to the well-being and happiness of our pets is truly remarkable. Whenever we leave our dogs in her care, we can rest assured that they are in the best of hands. Samantha goes above and beyond in every aspect of her service. From providing top-notch care, and engaging activities, to ensuring our pets feel loved and cherished in our absence, she consistently exceeds our expectations. Her attention to detail, reliability, and genuine affection for animals set her apart as a truly exceptional dog sitter. Moreover, Samantha has a natural gift for connecting with animals on a profound level. Our dogs absolutely adore her, and it is evident in their excitement every time she comes to visit. Her patience, kindness, and positive energy create a safe and nurturing environment that our pets thrive in. I wholeheartedly recommend Samantha to anyone seeking a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog sitter. She has become an invaluable part of our extended family, and we are incredibly grateful for the peace of mind she provides us whenever we are away. Thank you, Samantha, for your unwavering commitment to the well-being of our furry companions. Your passion for animals shines through in everything you do, and we are truly fortunate to have you in our lives.
I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received from Doggy Paradise. From start to finish, the entire experience was top-notch. Samantha is incredibly professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about animals. My dog felt right at home and was well taken care of, which gave me complete peace of mind during my time away. I highly recommend Doggy Paradise to any pet owner looking for reliable, loving, and professional dog sitting services. We will definitely be returning customers!
Samantha is amazing with my dogs! The dogs are more excited to see her than they are to see me! She’s wonderful and sweet, very thoughtful and conscientious. I very highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs!
Samantha did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Gus! He got plenty of exercise and attention. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which is a great sign! I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave Gus, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!
Samantha is amazing when it comes to caring for your pets. She pays close attention to detail and will keep you updated with messages and photos. My dog loves her and I’ll continue to bring my dog there for sleep overs
My dog had a great time at Doggy Paradise. Will recommend!
Rayne is 100% in love with your dog. She treats them like family, and your dog loves her for it. She will be their number 2 favorite person.
I started taking my 2 Bulldogs to ComfortaBull Dog Care a couple of years ago when my youngest Bulldog Chunk was going through Chemo & my oldest dog Chewie was going through his IMHA treatments. I have taken my dogs to other kennels and they did not like it and neither did I. So, I was so happy to find out about a Bully breed only boarding place close to my home that was in a home. I immediately felt at ease with Janet and could tell that she truly loves bulldogs as much as I do! She even took my Chunk to one of his oncologist appointments and gave both my boys their meds that they needed while they were fighting their diseases. Unfortunately, Chunk lost his battle with cancer last year, but he loved Janet and her daughters. I felt relieved when I had to leave my boys at ComfortaBull dog care knowing that they would be around other bully breeds and in a comfortable home setting. If you have a bully breed don't hesitate boarding them here where they will be treated like part of the family. <3
When you're happy to drive from North of Seattle to ComfortaBULL's southern location for boarding, you know it's because there's no other place you trust more with your bully's wellbeing and safety. Rocky is so loved and well cared for at Janet's. He loves being there, and we joke (but also maybe a little serious?) that he mopes when he comes back home. Your four legged family member is in the best of care with Janet and her loving family!
Hands down the best boarding for our English Bulldog. He is loved and spoiled and loved some more. Janet follows all your dogs necessary routine and adds her magic touch with daily messages to know your fur baby is doing well. My dog loves going and Janet's girls make the experience extra special. Definitely a homey experience. The girls even know our dog out and about, Maximus knows them too!
"The fact that my dogs look forward to going there and are always excited. I never feel uncomfortable leaving them. They're well taken care of and I get daily pictures or videos and updates - it's calming." - Husband, who often worries, when asked what he likes the most about ComfortaBull. As for myself, I'm not saying I am a helicopter dog mom, but I wouldn't deny it. Our dogs likely live better qualities of life than a majority of America's youth and they receive the same treatment when away at "Camp" (Janet's). I am not exaggerating when I say our female is depressed the week following pick up - they absolutely love their time with Janet and her family. We don't have kids around often, so our dogs love the extra attention and snuggles, and selfishly I love the exposure for them. We found Janet through a social media friend in the bulldog community. I knew as soon as our meet and greet was over that our pups would be in the right hands. My husband and I were leaving for a lengthier trip abroad and once he met Janet when we dropped off the dogs, he breathed the biggest sigh of relief. Not saying he loves the dogs more than he loves me, but I am not saying he doesn't. All in all, ComfortaBULL DOG Care is an asset to the bulldog community and our bebe's forever second home. We will follow Janet wherever she goes. LOL Truly, your dog couldn't be in better care while their pawrents are away. - Whitley, Dog Mom of 2 French Bulldogs : 5.5 yo male and 4 yo female with special needs.
Janet and family are AMAZING!!!!! From taking care of our Frenchie Olive during a long out of country vacation to all the monthly get togethers to meet other bulldog owners they are the best!! I could not recommend them more!!!! Love you guys!!!!
Hi, this is Maximus Steel Blu. You can call me Max. I’m a big tri merle blue english bulldog. I love to go see Janet and her hubby and the girls. I follow Janet around the house when I’m there just like I do with my mom. Janet must be a good cook because my nose goes crazy over the smell. I always hope they will share so I sit and watch for just a little taste to drop to the floor. I love that my family takes me to Janet because there are always friends for me to play with. And the girls give me lots of love. When I’m done playing I snuggle on the couch with the adults because I’m also a lap dog. They make me feel at home when I’m not. They even have toys for me. Whenever I do something silly, Janet sends a message to my mom. I’m still a puppy so I’m kinda silly. I make the girls laugh. They even recognized me out at the park the other day and gave me loves. They love me like their own.
Janet and her family take care of my English bulldog rescue pup just like he belongs to them. He's not much into playing with the other pups but he gets to sleep in her daughter's room and wake the kiddo up in the morning. When I picked him up after his last stay there, all of her daughters wanted to give him kisses goodbye and he loved it! Janet and her family have a lovely home and take wonderful care of their visiting bulldogs. It's like leaving them with family! My only regret is that we don't live close enough for my dog to go there for daycare too!
We were SO happy to find comfortabull! We have two French bulldogs who have very different personalities and needs. Janet and her family took AMAZING care of our ladies. Her communication throughout their stay was so helpful and we loved seeing the photos and videos. Their first stay was their longest time away from us, which make us nervous but they did amazing! They came home happy and tired from playing with all their new friends. I cannot recommend Janet enough! We hope to use her in the future!
ComfortaBull Dog Care has been our go to sitter for our two English bulldogs. I was so nervous leaving my Roscoe the first time we went out of town but Janet texted me updates and photos and seeing how much fun he was having and all the love he was getting put me right at ease. Janet knows how to properly care for the bulldog bread. The best part about sending Roscoe and Cuba to ComfortaBull Dog Care is that they are part of Janet’s family. When we go to drop them off they are both excited and know exactly where they are… their “vacation home”. If you are looking for a bully sitter visit @comfortabull on IG to get a glimpse of how much fun the pups have and how loved they are. Janet also does pack walks so the pups can see some of their “stay mates” or make new friends or as mine do, follow Janet around for attention. Janet, we are so glad we found you. Roscoe and Cuba will see you soon! 💙🐶
Janet is the best!!! My dogs love going there for a stay. I feel at ease when I know she is taking care f them. Highly recommend!
We absolutely love the Muttro Pups! We have been using them for all our boarding needs for our three Italian greyhounds! They get to board in the same room and not in a cramped cage. I have such peace of mind that my dogs will be taken care of and happy! We have been repeat customers for 4 years!
They take great care of my crazy Shiba/husky mix! I also love that they are super responsive to their text check-ins, and send me cute pictures!
The Muttropolitan is an amazing doggy day care. They have boarding options and will come to your house. They have taken great care of my dogs and cats throughout the years.
10/10 would recommend them! First time boarding with them and I have nothing but positive things to say. Being gone for over a week, I was so grateful for the quick replies with updates and pictures of my dogs! The staff are so nice and helpful. They helped me bring my dogs out to my car when I picked them up, and having one small dog and one large old dog it’s a hassle by myself. Great place, great staff who communicate well! Thank you!!
Love this place! My nala is so happy here! Kirsten is amazing with my pup! She takes very good care of her! I have worked with her at previous places and will follow her on whatever adventure she takes on! 💗💗 Send your doggie here!
We boarded our 4 year old dog for the first time over the holidays after an unexpected change in our care plans. The staff was incredibly helpful in getting us the boarding help we needed with only a couple weeks’ notice at such a busy time of the year. I applaud their good communication (including updates and photos during her stay!), deep care for all animals they take in, and the willingness to help us out when we were in a major bind. We will definitely be boarding our dog here again! Highly recommend.
My two dogs, Lemon and Raspberry, have always had someone home to watch them while I go on work trips, and that changed this year after our relocation to Washington. I travel for work 3-8 times a year and I was worried about being able to find a suitable place for them since they have separation anxiety, are on the barkier side, and need prescription food. Muttropolitan found a place for my pups after a last minute Rover cancellation in October, and I took them back for a longer visit this month. These people go above and beyond for my dogs -- even sitting with them while they eat (this is the only way they actually eat when they're stressed). In addition to being reasonably priced, their facility accommodates them being boarded in the same kennel area, walks them multiple times a day, and is extremely punctual with sending updates and pictures upon request. My dogs are their normal silly selves when we get home, which shows me they are getting proper attention and they are minimally stressed while boarded. I am so glad that I found a place for my two babies. I highly recommend the Muttropolitan.
Our sweet Sunny girl has always gone to Leash the Muttro Pups anytime we needed boarding when we have to go out of town. We always come back to a very happy bean! It’s like a mini vacation for her, and we feel better knowing she’s really well cared for. What we appreciate the most is the photo text updates we get on how she’s doing, as well as the accommodations they had for her when she was still a pup and not spayed yet. 5/5 recommend! Also the sweetest people you will meet. Photos of her from her morning walks with Leash the Muttro Pups🥰
We've boarded our dog here a couple of times now for extended vacations, and he is always so happy and well cared for. Our dog is somewhat aggressive with other dogs, and we love that the Muttropolitan staff have experience with dogs with behavior issues and know how to handle and care for all the pets staying with them at any given time. It's a lot of extra work, and we appreciate the care and love that goes into his stay.
I have been bringing my dog here for over a year. I highly recommend them. They are so kind and loving to my dog. He can be a bit hyper and other dog daycare places have suggested I give him CBD before bringing him because he’s just “too much“ so I love that leash. The Metro pups takes him as he is. He’s always well cared for and now that they have a bigger space. I’m sure it will be even better.
If you are in need of a doggy day care, then this is the place for you!! We had a week long family vacation planned and this was going to be the first time that we would be away from our girl, Summer. I was overly anxious about leaving her at a boarding facility because that's just not an environment she's used to being in. But thankfully, we found Jordan at Connie's Cottage! Jordan ensured a wonderful experience right from the beginning! We scheduled a meet & greet so Summer could get familiar with him and the area before we dropped her off. He listened to our concerns about our first time being away from her and had no problem staying consistent with her food additions and allergy medication! Immediately after dropping her off, we started receiving pictures and updates of their adventures! Jordan would consistently send pictures throughout the day of her on their multiple walls, local dog park visits, and even when they were just hanging out at home. It was such a relief to know that Summer was with someone who genuinely cared for her and had her in an environment that was more like home! Jordan even offered to check our mail for us while we were gone! I just absolutely love that this is a local, family owned business. I highly, highly recommend Jordan and his family if you are in need of doggy day care! We will absolutely be lifelong customers and will go back for all of our doggy daycare needs! 🐾🤎
Leaving my dog with a boarding facility/pet sitter has always been very difficult for me because I get super anxious being away from him especially with him being a rescue and he hasn’t had the best past experiences. But let me tell you, Connie’s Cottage is AMAZING. Jordan is so welcoming and does what he can to make sure that every dog is comfortable and happy and feels as much at home as possible with an open concept where they have free roam but are also NEVER left alone by themselves. You also can expect MULTIPLE pictures throughout the day while on vacation to show the little adventures or walks they are taking or just updates in general which eased my mind so much. My Brody can be quite the stubborn dude but has the biggest heart. I wouldn’t trust taking my dog anywhere else in the future. Brody had a blast and met so many new friends and explored all kinds of environments during his stay. I HIGHLY recommend using Connie’s Cottage Dog Services to anyone, whether you’re an anxious pet parent like me, or just in general for boarding services and other services they offer. I will always be taking Brody and other future pets here in the future!🩷 Thank you so much Jordan and Cottie’s Cottage for making this vacation so much less stressful and for caring for my best friend🩵
I can't say enough good things about Jordan and his family. They took amazing care of our two pugs while we were out of town for a week. Jordan was super communicative, sending daily photo updates via text (sometimes more than once a day). I enjoyed seeing my derpy dogs having fun exploring new dog parks and becoming temporary members of the "pack." Jordan had no issues with one of my dogs needing a pill with each meal--I appreciated that it wasn't a hassle. Towards the end of our trip the dogs had minor ear issues which Jordan immediately alerted me to so that we could address it when we got back and in the meantime he was proactive with ear cleaner. I highly recommend Connie's Cottage. The 100% 5-star reviews are well deserved. Good vibes all around. Thank you Jordan for taking such good care of our pups!
Jordan and Donna were prompt, professional, and flexible with scheduling. In particular, Jordan was incredibly generous in our first meeting to see if my dog would be a good fit. His attention to detail, knowledge of dogs and social interactions exuded confidence and showed that he was above all dedicated to the well-being of the dogs. I could see this was a labor of love, and not just a business interest. Our dog was initially very scared, but by the end of the day he was very happy and I could tell he was comfortable with Jordan and had a wonderful time with the other dogs. I highly recommend Connie's and I will be back the next time I need doggy day care. Thank you!🐕
My experience with Jordan has been nothing but the best! I’ve been through a couple of day care facilities and dog sitters with my dog. More often than not, he comes back smelling like urine or not getting enough exercise. With Jordan, he comes back smelling like he did when we went and his exercise has been off the charts. I have a fitness tracker on my dog and his average daily activity when being with Jordan is 5 hours! My dog went on multiple walks and park time during the day. If you’ve ever seen Jordan out at Ft. Steilacoom Dog Park, you can tell that he knows what he’s doing. He knows how to get all the dogs to listen and follow him while still paying attention to every single one. Jordan’s communication with me has been wonderful! I’ve gotten multiple photos every time my dog goes out and the photos are of great quality. Jordan is really great at giving updates. I will continue to use Jordan’s services for my dog!
Jordan is excellent. Great with my pup and consistently very professional. Runs on time. His service is different from standard dog daycare. How he does it is so much more on the relationship with the dog. With walking… lots of walking, park time, sitting, training, and love all kind of rolled in. I have been very impressed. My dog loves being around him and his pack so much that it is even a bit of a challenge to get him back in my truck (in a good way). I trust this guy very much with by dog and will not hesitate to take him here again anytime I am working in the area.
Jordan is the best! My husband found Jordan over a year ago on Rover. We were looking for someone to walk them daily while my husband and kid’s were out of town and I had a long work week. Here we are a year later and he still comes three times per week. My dogs wait on the couch looking out the window…we call it Jordan watch. We have boarded with him a couple of times. We always joke that our dogs prefer him to us. Needless to say you won’t regret using Jordan for dog care! And he takes the best pictures!
Took the pups for an overnight at Connie's cottage before we go on our vacation in a month. I have checked out probably 100 places and visited a dozen or more. I'm super cautious about where I board them and do not want to worry about my fur babies when I'm gone. Jordan sent many pictures of their walks and updates. I feel very comfortable that they will be well taken care of with plenty of exercise and not just put in a kennel. When they came home they were exhausted. I also love he has dog CPR training and plans in place if anything may happen. Glad to have found a place my 2 pups can go and feel at home, cuddle on a couch and have plenty of exercise. ❤️❤️❤️
Jordan is amazing! He does it all, walking, sitting, boarding…. I think my dogs would choose him over me. Bella and Cubby are better behaved because of his care. 5 stars isn’t enough.
Jordan has been an absolute asset to our family! He took wonderful care of our elderly pup Daisy, providing peace of mind to us while we were working. Now he helps with our new pup Kevin, giving him much needed exercise and love when we're at work! Jordan has a special way with dogs, and I trust him completely. You can tell he really has a unique love and way with our canine family members!
We took our dog, Tilly, to Happy Dog and she absolutely loved it. The staff is very kind but firm with her puppy energy, they go the extra mile to get her enough exercise, greet her with hugs and kisses, and were able to bring her out curbside when we had our kiddos in the car at pickup. Highly recommend this place!
Just want to say that this day care is an awesome place and the staff is amazing, but in the other hand, the Owner is a tyrant and power hungry control freak. My dog was removed from her day care because of a post I made about the lack of care all the dogs received on June 19th, from 11a.m. until right around 4:30 p.m. all the dogs were left unattended. Left a review on Paw partner,and she didn't care for it at all. Her and I had a text thread today and she was rather insulting was called crazy, an idiot. Told me my pup could stay if I removed my face from the profile picture on Paw Partner. I refused and she told I was no longer welcome. I've noticed a pattern with this person. If you say or do something she doesn't like she'll be rude and disrespectful to her customers. If there was a way to post our text conversation it would support how this owner is with people who defy her authority. On a good note just want to give a shout out to all the young ladies that have put up with her and her tyrannical attitude. You ladies be safe and watch you backs. Thanks care. You mad about a review grow up You do know I'm going to leave this text thread on Paw partner. Your blocked you idiot Keep it up we're loving this I swear we are You're going to super suffer for this in the courts You making this so easy Your ego is going to be your downfall I promise you that you got the right one call me idiot certifiable all you want to but I know it's right and I know what's wrong and you're mad about the review I left about a honest review I left and you're mad 5:59 PM SMS. This message is from the owner. There are several other messages in this text thread, just don't know how to upload them.
My puppy and I had a horrible experience here consistently for over a year before giving up. There were multiple issues including my dog being attacked and sent home with wounds requiring stitches down his stomach with no notification. When I questioned why it occurred, they told me someone just didn’t see it. But my dog came home whimpering in pain. There were also multiple occasions I heard staff screaming at the dogs. The staff was also unreasonably rude. They changed the terms and conditions of the package I purchased (against the law) and then told me they couldn’t confirm my purchase because they threw out the records. When I pressed, they called me hostile and scary when I told them calmly that I was upset there was no record, they changed the policy after my purchase, and expected an explanation. If not, I would report to the proper agencies because it felt dishonest as it was hundreds of dollars lost. In response, the staff told me they weren’t surprised because the old manager lied a lot but since they threw away my records they wouldn’t do anything to fix the situation. Obviously, that was upsetting as a customer. Sheri, the owner, yelled at me in response because her staff didn’t like that I stated their response was not okay. At the end of an angry call, she offered only partial services back. At the end of all of this, I can’t in good conscience have my family member in her care. Her temper was abnormal given that a customer lost hundreds of dollars because her old manager apparently lied to customers. Changing terms and conditions of packages following purchase should not be occurring. Sending dogs home injured is negligent. I have since tried two other places close by who have gone above and beyond and my puppy comes home much happier and not bitten or screamed at. ***Thanks so much for the response Sheri, demonstrating your poor customer service. I didn’t threaten to sue, I said I would make a report to the BBB. I did say I was an attorney and stated that changing the terms and conditions from expiring at a year to 3 months was not appropriate, that is not berating. I’m sorry your staff (the same age as me) is not trained to handle an upset customer who was speaking to them calmly and explaining their fair concern. I had purchased my package in August and you expired it and threw away proof of purchase by December, despite being told that it expired at a year (like my previous other packages). I hope you invest in better training for yourself and your staff on best practices.
Happy Dog South Sound is amazing! Our Aussie/border collie mix loves going to daycare and playing with all his buds. He goes almost every weekday from 7-3:30 and couldn’t be happier. He comes home smiling and exhausted, and in the morning couldn’t be happier to do it all over again :)
I have had nothing but a great experience with Happy Dog South Sound… Everything about this business is just impeccable!!! In my life, my dogs are my family and priority and I give my full trust to the staff at Happy Dog South Sound to take care of my buddy. Between the great prices, intensive care, and great facility… I highly recommend if you would like your pet in great loving hands.
FANTASTIC doggie day care!!! My experiences i have had there are nothing but great. My dogs absolutely love going there and they always have such a good time; they come back well played, well rested, and always come home in such a happy mood. I always feel so good with leaving my dogs here because the owner and staff truly show you that they care about your dogs well being, safety, and making sure they have a good time while they are there! I will be coming back for sure and i’ve already recommended this place to many friends and will continue too!
I have had a constantly amazing experience trusting my dog with happy dog south sound! They have always been the most generous, trusting, and caring people to look after my best friend for me! I have had the pleasure of meeting the owner myself and all I have to say is that you can really tell how much she loves her job and and how much she will do to ensure the quality care for your dog! Would definitely recommend!
I can’t express my love for this place enough! I have been sending my two fur babies here for years and they have always come home happy and healthy. The owner is amazing and by simply talking to her you can understand how much she cares about her business and the dogs she cares for. I have recommended this day care to so many friends and they all have said the same things I have!!! I can’t rave about this place enough!!!
Great boarding and daycare facility with attentive and caring staff! Our dog loves coming to play with his friends and he always comes home with a huge smile on his face, exhausted and happy :)
I’ve taken both my dogs here many times and they LOVE it! The workers take great care of my dogs. They come back happy and well fed. They have made so many friends. The overall environment of the business is extremely positive.
