Pet Sitters in University Place, WA

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!

My dog had a great experience being boarded. Everyone was kind and friendly and helped me feel reassured during her stay. I received pics and updates when I texted which also helped me feel more comfortable. My dog is about 9 and this was her first time being boarded. They were also really flexible to accommodate my request on a short notice over the holidays. I will definitely board my dog here again in the future!

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.

We absolutely love Emily’s Wood Pack for our two dogs. Our dogs needed some socializing after the pandemic and they were nervous, but they made sure to communicate what days had calmer dogs, and always update with pictures. I would say they are even more affordable with boarding than other locations in the area considering how much love, attention, and space they are given. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. You can tell all the employees love the pets. Honestly amazing!

We are so happy with the care our puppy gets at Emily’s Woof Pack! It’s affordable, high-quality dog care that our pup absolutely loves. He always comes home happily exhausted after his visits, and now he even cries with excitement whenever we drive by the Walgreens nearby. The staff is incredibly professional and friendly, and I love how dog-centric the check-in and check-out process is—it makes everything easy and stress-free. Plus, the location is super convenient for anyone near JBLM, Lakewood, or Steilacoom. Highly recommend Emily’s Woof Pack for your furry family members!

Emily has always been professional, prompt and friendly. She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and supportive of her pet sitting community, providing resources and referrals if she isn’t available or the right fit for your pet. She gives her heart to each dog in her care and will love them like her own while they’re in her home. She is the ONLY person we trust to care for our cats, in our home, when we travel. She sends video updates and pictures so you know your babies are happy. Bring your dogs to Emily, you won’t regret it! Oct 2021: Editing to add that we now have a very shy doodle boy who was exceptionally well cared for during his daycare visit. Emily went above and beyond answering all of my nervous dog mom questions before booking. Upon arrival, Alex and Sierra were patient with Sunny while he got accustomed and they sent several photo pupdates throughout the day. Best of all, Sunny is less nervous with new dogs and people after his ONE day running with the pack. Seriously, bring your dog to Emily’s Woof Pack.

Our Doggo loves her time at Emily’s! She made it super easy to find a day that we could come out and do a trial for a new daycare. Our dog had a great time! And Emily sent us an update on her first day to let us know she’s doing ok. Love that they have outdoor space for the doggos. Will definitely be back!

Emily has been amazing with our fur baby, Diesel. She has sat for him dozens of times over the last few years and he always comes home happy. She is great with text updates when we are out of town. We trust her with the most important thing in our lives. I cannot say enough about how much she cares about dogs and their well being. She is the best!!! Diesel loves his aunt Emily! Thanks so much...

Emily Wolf Pack has been the best decision we ever made for our dog. Our dog went to day care once a week for a few months and he was the happiest. He was always excited they day he was picked up and came home happy and tired. We never had any trouble with the team working there or with our dog while he was taken care. They are very attentive, Professional, flexible and have great communication. I will for sure recommend this place!!

You will not find a better Doggy Day Care experience than EWP. The Pack Leaders engage with the pups continuously during the day and my two come home happy and tired. This team cares about each dog individually - they are a joy to leave my fur kids with.

I am so greatful for my coworker and fellow nurse telling me about Emily's. She brings her Pups and Cat here and she could not have been more spot on for a great daycare for my Archie. He will be 5 this year and we have had our share of not good experiences at 2 other places and then we found Emily's. Professoinal, carring, kind, just the best people. You will have no worries. Just wonderful. Right acroos the street from Key Bank on Steilacoom.

I would definitely recommend Emily's Woof Pack to anyone looking for a daycare or boarding for their pups! We adopted our dog about a year-and-a-half ago and he was quite the handful. He didn't do well at a large daycare facility, and I was nervous to try again and leave him with anybody. Emily was willing to work with him and now he loves going over to her house! I love that she does overnight trials and a thorough screening process to make sure all of the dogs will get along before their first day of daycare. 10/10 would recommend 🥰🐾

Emily is a wonderful pet sitter (and human being!) and I trust her to the moon and back to give my pup excellent care. We had a lovely conversation before giving my dog a trial run at her house to figure out if my rescue dog's personality would fit in with the other dogs in the Pack. With my initial concerns about my dog's nervous and anxious behavior put to rest, I was able to leave her with Emily for 24 hours to test the waters. Emily sent photos and gave updates and determined that my dog was ready for a longer stay. Now, I'll leave my dog for her "vacation" with Emily this Christmas while I travel to visit family. <3 Emily came on high recommendation from my rescue, and I'm so glad I heard about her!

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 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!

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!

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!

My golden girls love spending the day at daycare while we are at work. The Staff is excellent and you can tell they care. I love the grooming. 5 stars!!

Fort Fido has been awesome for our dog. We started taking him there as a puppy to get socialized and here we are a year later and he still loves going! As soon as we say, “want to go to daycare?” Our dog goes straight to the door and is so happy to go! Thanks Fort Fido! Franklin loves it there 💚 …

Our dog Shadow loves it here! They always tell you how your dog did, like who they played with or if they noticed particular behavior for you to watch out for. For instance we took him there as a puppy and as he was nearing the age to consider neutering they let us know he was starting to attempt mounting other dogs. Or other times when by the end of a long day he barked a lot and seemed ready to go home. You can tell that they are very attentive. I fully trust them to watch our dog and have boarded him here as well with no issues.

I’ve been taking my dogs here for over ten years. Fort Fido has consistently been a 5 star experience! I appreciate that they do a free doggy assessment to make sure your dog will fit in with the other dogs. They do have some requirements like vaccinations and spay or neuter, which I appreciate. When my senior dog needed to be boarded a few days, they agreed to give her the medication’s and rest that she needed. I recently enrolled my puppy and it was so nice to have a safe place for my pup when I needed a few hours to run errands. Puppy is now 10 months old and completely socialized with other dogs. I like that they offer grooming services when your dog is there for daycare or boarding. I’ve gotten great advice from David the owner, in regard to food and training. They now have a new location in Puyallup as well as the Tacoma location. Online enrollment is easy. Fort Fido is the best!

We love the Fort! Our beagle, Levi, is 12 years old. When we moved to Washington last year, I was stressed out about finding a new place to board him during those rare trips for which he cannot join us, such as when we're out of the country or traveling for business. I am so thankful that we found Fort Fido. Whenever we drop him off, it's clear that Levi is happy to be there. He greets the staff and trots off to the play area without so much as a backward glance at dear old mom—which would break my heart if I didn't recognize it as a sure sign that he is comfortable there. When I pick him up, he greets me enthusiastically, but he is never stressed out, whiney, or overtired, as he has been after staying at some other boarding facilities in the past. This indicates to me that the staff are tailoring our little older gentleman's experience to meet his needs, that he's sleeping well while he's there, and that he feels secure and cared for until we pick him up. That, in turn, puts my mind at ease while I'm traveling. The facility is clean and well maintained, and the staff are some of the kindest, friendliest, most professional people you could hope to encounter. It's clear that they LOVE dogs. We're happy to give them a chance to love our Levi anytime he can't be with us. Thank you, Fort Fido!

Love Fort Fido! We have a senior black lab (Maverick) and a pup (Jester) who couldn’t be more different. Fort Fido allows them each to do their own thing during the day, but also share the same space at night like they do at home. It’s very comforting to know they’re in such good hands. The owners and staff are also very understanding and accommodating. We love and trust that when we travel we know our fur babies are in a safe and happy place which makes our time away from them a little less difficult. ❤️

We have been bringing our eskipoo pups here for years! Fort Fido is the ONLY place I would trust with our dogs. The staff is always so kind and caring, they truly offer the best service for any boarding needs. I love that it is next door to their vet as well, in case anything happens they are right next door!

Love Ft. Fido, they are wonderful with our 2 yr old lab. I feel confident in his safety and he always comes home worn out from playing! He is so happy every time we take him in. Great staff, great hours, and great facility.

Great staff, great hours, competitive pricing. I always feel good leaving my dog at Fort Fido for daycare and for boarding. Staff is always there to answer any questions or concerns.

My dogs Misty and Ralphie have been going to Fido since they were puppies! The staff is so friendly and take amazing care of my pups. This is the best facility for boarding/daycare in the area.

I’m so grateful to have Val in our life. She accommodated my dogs in last min decision for boarding. She is very organized and detailed oriented. She is very passionate about her work and she provides best quality care. She quickly response to my messages and she keeps me updated at all times. My dogs love her and always excited to see her. She also live so close by which is super convenient. I highly recommended her and I definitely going to take my dogs again for day care!

Val is amazing!!! She recently cared for my puppy that is super challenging and did a fantastic job with her. She also cared for my recently departed malamute many times. Val is responsive, caring and clean! Her home is well kept and she is great about social distancing and hand hygiene. I highly recommend her for both boarding and daycare.

Able services has been a gift to find! Valerie is a remarkable, kind, loving person who is gifted at taking care of dogs. She loves my dog like her own and even calls herself his godmother!! I even put her as his second emergency contact because I trust that she would take care of my dog like her own. She is incredibly flexible with dates and times and has been able to accommodate every request including holidays. She even picks my dog up from my home in the morning and drops him off. Her ability to transport has helped me tremendously for dog care. Her pricing is very reasonable. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Valerie and Able services. They also can provide yard work and cleaning which I’ve used in the past. Valerie is only able to perform excellence, and I know my dog is not only safe but he’s happy when he’s at her place playing with the other dogs.

I'd give 10 stars if I could. Val is absolutely incredible with my Australian Shepherd. I work 24 hour shifts and having him be with Val while I'm at work puts my mind completely at ease. She sends fun pictures and updates throughout the day so I get to see my little baby playing with all his friends :) Val is very easy to contact and quick to respond. She makes it so easy! I've been bringing my dog here for a few months now and wish I would have found out about her sooner. I'll be a returning customer for a very long time!

Val is such an amazing person and a great pet sitter. She also is very good at dog behavior and understanding how they react in situations. I think she is a dog whisper. I was concerned with my Boston wanting to attack other dogs. I took her to various trainers over the years and nothing worked. After going to Vals she now doesn’t always have the desire to attack other dogs. She has been watching my dogs for several years now. I can always rely on her short notice and she is always available for advise when my pet is sick or not behaving. Her house is set up very well for our fur babies and all of my pups love going to her place for stays. I am a first responder and can always count on her if something happens to me she will take care of my babies. There is no doubt in my mind she will take good care of your fur babies. Plus, she is great to work with in general. She has a good heart and is extremely compassionate and genuinely cares for both you and your fur baby. I am excited for all of you who are reading this review and going to have her care for your babies. She will do a great job.

I rarely write reviews online but I cannot say enough good things about Val and her kennel. Val does an amazing job creating a fun space for dogs to exercise and feel at home. I always feel confident leaving my pup, and he always comes home clean and tired! If you are looking for a dependable, professional, and local kennel service, Val and Able Pet Services is simply the best around.

I've been working with Val and Able Pet services for a few years. I know my dogs and cats are in good hands whether they're staying at our house while we're out of town or our young dog is over at doggy daycare playing. I would, and do, highly recommend Val and her services.

Val is very trustworthy and communicates amazing. My dogs are well taken care of, keep safe, and have the best time hanging with their furry friends. They spend a lot of time with Val, and are always ready to go back!

Able Pet Services honestly deserves 10 stars! I had a difficult time finding a daycare the met my dogs needs so I was pleased to have a referral from a gentleman i met at the dog park. Most daycares are overly crowded or not large enough to accommodate my energetic lab. Able Pet Services provides an environment in which my dog can burn off her energy, play with other dogs, be outside in the sunshine (weather permitting) and receive personalized attention. I receive photos and videos throughout the day detailing my dog's day. The owner Valerie is very flexible and laid back and you can tell she loves what she does. Able Pet Services will be my go-to for daycare and boarding moving forward. Thank you Valerie!

Boarding our dogs at Val’s makes everything so easy!! Our pups love going to see her!! She does such an amazing job of making them feel at home and safe when we are away. If we ever have a concern, she is easy to contact. Best dog boarding in Washington!!

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!

I want to update my review. Liz has been my pet sitter for the past seven years. She is excellent. If you have the privilege of being able to bring your dog to Liz, I would recommend you do so. She is extremely detail oriented - If your dog has any special-needs or medications, she will follow instructions to the letter. Liz is incredibly experienced and handling dogs in a compassionate and safe manner. She’s also an excellent communicator. You will know what’s going on with your pet. She will tell you anything that seems off. You will get funny and detailed daily updates during your pet’s stay. And she works her butt off. Liz started this business back in 2016, completely on her own, and she has worked extremely hard to build a successful business. I do not have easy dogs, and I have high standards, and Liz is one of three people I trust to watch my dogs. Last year when I had a family emergency and I needed to immediately fly out of town, Liz came to my house and picked up my dogs without question and kept them for two weeks over the holiday. When my dog was in a cast, she boarded him and dealt with his exercise restrictions and special extra cast care. This is the kind of person she is. She has become part of our family over the past six years. If I could clone her, I would. Thank you Liz for all the love, care, and reliability you have brought to our lives for almost a decade. Gemma, Ruger, Louis, and Bijoux.

Elizabeth is the most dog-knowledgeable person I’ve ever met. She helped me learn to read my new dog’s behavior (as I was totally dog-illiterate, and he is a stubborn old-man schnauzer) and has cared for him as if he were her own on several occasions. She’s honest and trustworthy, and definitely the best choice for consistent, dependable pet care service.

Elizabeth is extremely responsible and detail oriented, not to mention fun and trustworthy! She goes above and beyond the call of duty. Not only do I trust her with my pets, who are family to me, I trust her with my home as well. She made me feel genuinely comfortable leaving her in charge of my home and pets. Elizabeth has also been helpful and full of knowledge with medical and training advice for our cat and dog ! With our crazy schedules she has been super accommodating as well. Thanks again!

Elizabeth is thoroughly reliable, cares about the dogs in her care and has a professional understanding of dog behavior. She's also good with people. :-)

Elizabeth is a gem! She has helped us so much with our rescue who is very high energy! She is coming to our house weekly to train our dog. We are still using Elizabeth and have resolved many issues quickly. We will also use her boarding and doggy day care. She requires an assessment visit to make sure you dog is ok for boarding. Our dog had a blast on just the assessment stay. She sent pictures and a report. Very professional.

Elizabeth was our walker and trainer when we first moved to the Tacoma area a couple of years ago. She was the absolute best and took on our golden retriever puppy, Kalluk, like he was her own. She helped him learn and grow into an incredible young pup. Her reliability, professionalism, and passion for what she does is clear. We are so happy she opened her own business!

Elizabeth has quickly become the only person besides myself & my family that I trust to watch my dog. He is a 1.5 year old standard poodle, full of energy, and can sometimes be a handful! I trust Elizabeth completely with him, and know that when he’s in her care he will not only be safe & taken cate of, but have a ton of fun too. That’s priceless!

My family had the most wonderful experience with Elizabeth sharing her home with our handful of a Great Dane while we vacationed. We enjoyed Elizabeth from the moment we met her. Woody made himself right at home and we never once were concerned about leaving him at her home. She made all of us feel welcome. Several photos were sent daily and always made us smile. We are already planning our next outing since we know Woody will always be in good hands with Elizabeth.

Absolutely THE BEST caregiver for your dogs - hands down! If a good fit - your fur babies will thrive in her pack. The "nanny," Elizabeth is such an attentive and compassionate professional (to both human and dog clientele.) Her knowledge, thoughtfulness to detail, and her expertise in dog training/behavior makes her second to none. Our Shiba has tried other day care centers (both in-home and large facility) but they just don't compare to Your Dog's Nanny. Trust me, our Shiba lets us know. lol Elizabeth offers structure, enrichment, love and care to your dogs - she treats them as if they were her own. Besides knowing our dog is in wonderful hands, her excellent customer service and communication skills takes her business up to the next level. Don't hesitate to contact Elizabeth. You'll be grateful you did.

Liz has been pet sitting and walking my crew since she moved out here from the east coast. I have two Dobermans, one of whom is a working dog and one of whom is fear reactive to moving cars. I do not trust the average person to competently handle my dogs and follow instructions. I do trust Liz. On the business side of things, I appreciate Liz because she is flexible, friendly and communicative. She works with my crazy lawyer schedule and I always know how my dogs are doing when she stays with them. I highly recommend her to my own friends and recommend her to you as well.
