Megan has a great house with a wide open kitchen and cozy bedrooms. The pets are sweet and easy to care for. Wiley loves to have some extra attention and back rubs due to his old age. Great communication from Megan!
Audrey and Mathilde are lovely hosts. Their flat is nice decorated and cosy. They got us champagne because it was our annivesary. Hector us easy to look after. A little bit shy but loved playing. Would recommend!
A very enjoyable sit, Chris and Caroline were very welcoming.. Pedro and Cars are lovely dogs. Florence is one of the nicest cats we sat, really friendly. The area is lovely, lots of lovely pubs..
I had the most wonderful time sitting beautiful Mira at James and Tanya's lovely home. Mira was so sweet and cuddly, loving to curl up on the couch together relaxing and reading (me!), while surrounded by the most amazing library along with peaceful, natural quiet. She is an indoor/outdoor kitty and never once used the litter box while I was there, so is very easy to care for, while also being adorable! Their home was so welcoming, filled with beautiful plants and books and surrounded by lovely views, and communication was excellent - they even printed out everything I might need to know during my stay. I also enjoyed feeding the birds and watching a whole variety of birds daily at the feeders, with a beautiful backdrop of the natural surroundings. The neighboring villages are fun to explore, and there is even an amazing zero waste shop closeby called the O Zone, for eco-conscious travelers out there! There are lots of hiking trails nearby, and plenty of space and quiet within their home to reconnect to nature, with a charming kitty companion to keep you company. I would highly recommend this sit, and thank you again to Jamie and Tanya for having me!
Absolutely fabulous experience with Becka and Anthony and their pooches. The home is gorgeous, the communication and local info they left for us was great, and they were beyond generous with my family during our stay. Their 3 dogs are very well-behaved and a joy to be with. It was an absolute pleasure pet sitting for them and we hope to have the opportunity to return again.
Fiona has been really nice and helpful throughout the whole sit. The communication was excellent. Sam is also quite well behaved and sweet. After the first few friendly growls he allowed me to pet him and became more and more friendly with each day passing. The house is located in a pictoresque quiet neighborhood with a view on a canal which made my walks with Sam even more pleasant. Overall it was a really nice and relaxing sit that I definitely recommend.

If you have a WORKING dog, a DOG reactive, HUMAN reactive, ESCAPE ARTIST, PROBLEM PET, our simple household couch potato, THIS is the place for your pet! I will never in my entire lifetime trust anyone else with my dogs besides Country Kennels! I know that when I am on vacation, my guys are in a safe location, with their boundaries being respected and they're safely being taken care of in a clean, well maintained environment by competent, caring employees 24 hours a day! They have indoor/outdoor runs available. Short or long term care. Always accepting reservations and you can book in advance. Day care options are also available. They also offer "hands off" care for those "spicy" guests. You can't just leave your pets anywhere when you go out of town and you definitely need to be able to leave reactive dogs in an enviroment you can trust. I'll put it this way, THIS is the location the families of the local K9 units and working dogs suggested, which is how I found out about them. If you're unsure where to leave your reactive dog, take it from an owner of 2 "A-hole" Corso's, you can trust this facility and their staff with your working dog!!!
Never bringing my dog here again. She came back with chafing on her paws and snout. They told me that they just now noticed her injuries when I picked her up. Shows that they aren't even watching her. The chainlink fence is not safe for her mouth. She also came back very weak, skinny, could barely walk, and she had labored breathing at night. Very scary she was not the same dog I came in with
We have brought our 2 German Shepherds to Country Kennels a few times but this last visit will be our last. The previous visit I noticed that the blankets we brought were never taken out of the bag, so this visit I brought the beds out of their crates from home along with the blankets they got when they were puppies. We also brought a few toys for each one along with treats, bones and their food. When we arrived to check in I asked if I could go back to set the kennel up with their stuff and was told they no longer allowed people back in the kennel area. That should have been a red flag. When we showed up to pick them up, they had one bed & blanket up front for Kota and I was told they had given Ravens bed and blanket to another owner with a dog named Raven. I was beyond upset, I asked how they could give it to the wrong person if it was in the kennel with the dogs??? I was then told they had their own beds so they didn't put them in with the dogs. Why not say that instead of taking my stuff back to the kennel area in the 1st place. A lady came out and was beyond rude saying it was an accident they gave Ravens stuff to the wrong person and they weren't going to call the person they gave our stuff to since their dog had died after leaving. Wow at this point I'm in tears. This is the bed out of her crate at home and her blanket she had since she was a puppy. So rude to me when they made the mistake. My only mistake was leaving my dogs there. The girl at the counter then asked if any of the toys on the counter were ours, 2 of them were ours. We still ended up missing a new crinkly toy that we bought right before taking them to the kennel and the bones we brought for them both. Once again our personal items were not with our dogs for their use. They didn't give us any left over food or treats and I always pack extra. Now comes the bill they tried to charge us for daycare after we had both dogs bathed(which is supposed to give you an automatic late check out.) They took that off then added a 24.85 service charge. Monday I got a phone call saying the person had brought back Raven's bedding, so I went & picked it up. They couldn't find our new crinkly toy so I'm sure it went home with someone else as well. I don't understand how the kennel could be so negligent. Our babies won't be going back.
The first time I left my dog to go to YTC training for the Army went very great. So great that for Airborne training I decided to take her here again. My dog is 21 plus years old but still eats up her food like a vacuum. Because I had her since she was a pup, her well-being is important to me, I do not mind paying for her if that means she is well. I was gone for 3 weeks. I traveled up to come get her but very quickly grabbed her and headed home. I noticed that she was bathed, but at home I realized that she had lost so much weight. I could feel her bones. I had a conversation before I left about how much to feed her. I usually feed her 2 small cans or a large can a day. I was assured that if she ran out of the food I had bought her, they would give her the food they had. I am not sure what happened. Since I brought her home she has been eating non-stop. It is important that if you decide to board your dog here for more than 2 weeks that you make it clear to the staff to feed your dog and hopefully avoid what I experienced. Especially if you end up paying a lot of money like I did.
We took our cat here for his first stay away from home and he did so well. The kennel sent photos almost daily and gave me updates on how he was doing. I felt very comfortable leaving him in their hands. They let me take him back to his space when I dropped him off, too. They give the cats individual play and free time daily, which was wonderful because I have a very active boy. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will be bringing my cat here again when traveling for extended periods of time.
Absolutely amazing place. My Mini Aussie Sage was very happy with her stay. She usually is happy to see me at first then pouts for a couple hours after she's been boarded, but this time she was happy to see me and wanted to play for the rest of the day. I take that as a positive.
Wonderful! Took our youngest for a trial run and they were very informative. Offered extra options but didn’t “force” them on me. The pricing was very reasonable. We went back and boarded all 3 of our dogs for a long weekend and it was amazing to not have to worry about the pups while we were gone. All three came back happy 😊.
I was happy with the pride that is evident in this facility. The staff were helpful during my tour. I immediately felt comfortable with using this facility. I boarded Teddy Bear for the first time ever. They were professional and polite and comforting. The facility is very clean, organized, and well staffed. The setting just made me very comfortable in taking my pet here and leaving him in their care. The pictures they posted on the website were helpful and assured me that they were making sure he was in a great place and having fun. When I picked Teddy up he was very happy of course. I noticed how comfortable and clean and relaxed he appeared. If ever I need a daycare or boarding again, I will absolutely take Teddy Bear here again.
Just picked my dog up from a 1 week stay here and as soon as we got home I realized she had kennel cough. Staff didn’t mention anything about it to me, so either they were hiding it or not paying enough attention to her to notice. Very disappointed.
Out of the local kennels I've tried, this is by far our favorite! My elderly dog definitely seems to prefer it, too! They take great care of her, and we usually have them bathe her and clip her nails, too. She comes back happy as a clam, which is saying something since she's super codependent with me!!
We could not recommend Brianna enough especially if you have a reactive or rescue dog. She is so patient, thorough, and truly takes the time to understand each dog's specific needs. We have seen such incredible progress with our little girl who was learning to rebuild trust and consistency after being in 2 homes and the shelter in her first 1.5 years of life. Now we have a dog that feels confident, has learned to trust her environment and is consistently getting less and less reactive on leash. Each training session with Brianna contained so much content and learning for both the dog and owners and was so well tailored to each of us (between my partner and I who have different experiences with owning dogs). Here is a picture of our little girl at the vet, feeling a bit more brave and settled in new spaces. A huge thank you to Brianna for giving us tools for a lifetime!
I would recommend Brianna 1000000% for all of your training needs. She was so helpful in giving me direction and tips when working with my border collie Millie. My relationship with Millie has improved so much and it has been great seeing her confidence grow thanks to Briannas help!
Absolutely love working with Brianna! She has helped us with our reactive dog for the last year and we have seen incredible results. He used to not be able to see a dog at any distance without a huge barking reaction and now we can pass dogs rather close with no reaction. He is significantly more happy, calm, and confident then when we started training. Brianna is incredibly knowledgeable, a creative thinker, and offers very customized training. I have learned more about dogs than I could have ever imagined and my dog has benefited greatly from that. I absolutely recommend reaching out to her for any training needs you have!
We love All Ears! Brianna worked with our big dog Beau for several months on issues including food stealing, leash skills, and constant barking. We saw the improvement right away and were able to tackle so many issues than we expected. Brianna is also just a joy to work with-she is creative, thoughtful, and really gets dogs. But she also really gets people! I've referred her to so many friends, and they have all said the same thing-"I think I learned even more than my dog!"
Brianna is an amazing trainer! I have seen her at many events and watched her in action and she is a great trainer. Very kind and patient and the dogs all love her! I recommend her to everyone with dogs of any age!
It’s been great working with Bri! One of my dogs is a COVID pup so she’s a bit more anxious and timid being in public, yet protective with my younger pup. I appreciated Bri who came from an understanding and could see that my oldest is truly a good dog. Bri is a professional and has a lot of knowledge! She not only helped my dog, but has also provided me tools and tips. Would recommend!
Bri has been wonderful to work with. We have used her twice and will continue to work with her as long as possible. She has taken great care of our two dogs and cat. She sends pictures and updates of the animals to make us feel comfortable they are doing well without us. She is prompt with her responses and goes above and beyond to care for all our animals, the dogs always miss her. I would highly recommend her business for in home care, very reliable and trusted.
We absolutely love Brianna! We hired her to do some training for our two boxer boys. Little did we know the training was really for us! Lol she helped us realize we needed to be the ones in charge and she taught us how to take control and the difference has been night and day. We’re so thankful for the guidance she provided to help us get our boys in check. We also hired her to dog sit for the weekend and the boys loved it! She took them to the park and on walks so they were tuckered out when we had family take over. We will definitely hire her again! Thank you for taking such amazing care of our boys Brianna!
Brianna house sat for us while we were on vacation and watched our dog. She sent us daily photos and updates and we felt like our pup was in great hands! She left our house very tidy and in great condition. We would definitely use her again!
All Ears Petcare is the place to go for all your training needs! Brianna’s knowledge & hard work mentality means your dog is going to get the best experience. Highly recommend
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!
I had my dogs here for four days. It was their first experience so, naturally, I was nervous.I appreciated the wonderful pictures Becca sent throughout our vacation and her response time was amazing! The facility was clean and looked wonderful. I'm glad I chose to board my dogs here and will come back!
Where do I begin… To be honest I selfishly do not want to leave a raving review for Becca because I want her all to myself! My family recently went on a family holiday vacation hoping to return after 10 days. Well the PNW snow and Omicron changed things and our return flight home got cancelled. We had to stay back another 3 days since we couldn’t get on an earlier flight. I reached out to Becca and without hesitation she happily eased my stress and anxiety with a reply, “No worries!! Literally everyone has had flights delayed or cancelled. No one has gone home on time. 🤣 I know cancelled flights are frustrating but don't worry about Moe! He can stay until you get back.” And she takes the most awesome pictures & truly loves hanging out with our Moe!
Becca has been amazing with our senior dog, we couldn't be happier with her, she is very professional and passionated, We love her!!!
Our girl was well taken care of! We highly recommend and will definitely send our friends and family your way! Thank you Becca for the excellent job! *****
Becca was simply amazing to work with! She spent over an hour on the phone listening to my concerns, and getting a feel for if her kennel would be the right fit for our dogs (compared to the other kennels I spoke to who seemed more concerned with payment then the dogs’ well being). From the beginning, you can tell she truly cares about what’s best for not only your dogs, but the other dogs that she is caring for. My two dogs Harley & Willow are a bonded pair, and had never been boarded before - they are spoiled rotten, they sleep with us and are allowed on the furniture, so we had major concerns leaving them for a week to go on our honeymoon. Willow has separation anxiety and dog aggression (except to Harley) so she was not a candidate for any group play kennels. I love that Summit is a home to the pups that need special accommodations; before I stumbled on their page I feared we’d never be able to go on our honeymoon. Summit kennels was the only boarder I found that gives one on one (or in our case two on two) attention, full of walks, play time, treat puzzles, the works! And it’s included in the price! I love that it’s not one of those “$15 for a 15 minute walk“ place, this is individualized care, and exactly what we were looking for. We toured the kennel and grounds which are extremely clean, calm, we didn’t hear any barking or restlessness except when my husband spoke too loud so we moved to a different area to talk - a perfect example of how concerned Becca is with ensuring the dogs experience as little anxiety as possible - it was so impressive! Becca is also extremely communicative, she sent us an update within an hour of leaving the pups, and continued daily updates with photos and videos which eased our minds tremendously for this being the first time we’d ever left them. She worked with both on their leash/walking skills while they stayed with her, which were terrible previously. Not to mention she gave us the sweetest framed picture of our pups as a keepsake. I cannot recommend Becca highly enough, she is the reason my husband and I can travel again in the future, I wouldn’t use anyone else.
Our 14 month Golden Retriever spent a month away at Summit Kennels and we couldn't have been happier with the results! Becca did an amazing job training our pup to be the perfect family dog. The facility was exceptionally clean and organized, and the tools/advice she offered us for future reference was very thorough and spot on in terms of animal behavior. I would definitely recommend Summit Kennels to anyone looking to board their pet and we will absolutely return in the future!
I can’t express how amazing Becca is with our babies and what a blessing she has been . We moved up here stressing about my Great Dane because she isn’t allowed at most places. Becca has more then been willing to help . She also has clean amazing facilities a nice yard for them the play in . She has plenty of activities and toys and makes any kind of food Accommodation You can think of . She goes in debt on the personality of the dog so she can work on them individually . She sends updates and pictures that makes you feel so much more relaxed about being away from your babies. I could go on and on about how amazing she is . Best by far .
Becca at Summit Kennels is amazing. With less than a weeks notice she squeezed in our lab Rocky for boarding over the Thanksgiving week. Becca communicated with us the whole time Rocky was staying at Summit Kennels. She even sent us daily photos of Rocky playing or hanging out. The kids really enjoyed seeing her updates of Rocky. Becca also gave Rocky some much needed leash training. He’s doing amazing now!! I cannot say enough good things about this kennel! Becca even had a framed picture of Rocky for us when we arrived to pick him up. My parents were so amazed they are going to board their three dogs. If you are looking for the best kennel your dog deserves, look no further. If you aren’t boarding your dog here, you have no idea what you and your pooch are missing!! I forgot to mention how clean the kennel was. Definitely 5 star! Thank you again Becca!!
Our pitbull loved staying at Becca's place. She sent us a ton of pictures, and he was super happy. We'll never go anywhere else. We're just really grateful she opened her kennels recently. We trust Becca to take care of our dog like it was her own. And bonus, he came back trained to walk loose leash!
Becca and Summit kennels did an fantastic job. We were referred to Summit by our dog trainer. This is the first time using Summit Kennels and by far the longest we have left our dog (10days). I have to say I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The staff clearly loves dogs: we got photos, videos, status updates everyday. I didn’t even ask. Becca and crew played games and did agility training I didn’t know I our dog could do. Apparently our dog can snatch treats from the sky and walk on a balance beam if properly motivated. The actual kennel has tons of room with a built in spot with wood chips for doing business. Our dog came home clean, calm, and well rested. That’s better than I can say for some of my recent hotel stays.
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.
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!!
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!!!
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.
We've been with Happy Dog for a few years now. While the ownership has changed, we've always felt comfortable with leaving or dog there 3 times a week, or boarding him if we go out of time. There are a significant number of "happy dogs" there each day, and the friendly staff seems to be pleased to see each one.
My pup Raspberry has been coming to Paws Play since April 2023. This is my first experience with a doggy daycare and I couldn’t be more happy! I love seeing the updates on IG and TikTok while I’m at work, and I love that they do different events/activities for the dogs. We do daycare twice a week and she has so much fun that I don’t think she’s ready to leave when I pick her up! She sleeps amazing after a full day of playing with her friends and I’m happy knowing she’s in good hands when I’m at work!
My dog Luna has been going to Paws Play for almost three years and always has a great time. They work hard to make sure each dog had their personal needs met and enjoys every visit. Luna also loves boarding when I am out of town and I feel great leaving her with people she loves!
My dogs love this place. They cant wait to get out of the truck to play with all their friends. The staff is super fantastic. We do daycare, boarding and buy all our food from them. Super care of my pets and provide competitive prices on food.
Boarded my dog here for a 5 day vacation. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff or care my dog received. He had a blast and played so much that he slept for a whole day after coming home haha. If you miss your pet, they will give you status updates and even send photos. I have attached a few. Look how happy he is! Cute! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It’s definitely cheaper than some spots, but they should charge even less due to the poor service and treatment they provide to the pups. My dog used to cry on the car ride there - he only gets excited now when we go to his new daycare. Don’t think that’s any coincidence. They’re contained to a windowless warehouse space - *they do not take them outside at all*. So they just poop and pee on the hard cement all day. They randomly kicked our puppy out, mind you with no warning at all, due to his “behavior”. When I dropped him off that day, they took him in and then the girl immediately told me she’d be giving him a bath because he just laid in another dogs pee. Like it was our fault.. maybe she should’ve cleaned up the mess sooner? Then I proceeded to watch her scream at the dogs. She seemed miserable (she was the only one working and there had to be at least 20 dogs in there). When we went to pick him up after we were notified he was kicked out, we thought he bit someone or something. Turns out their reasoning was he was just too rambunctious.. because he’s a PUPPY. Why would they let a less than 1 year old puppy into their daycare to begin with if they didn’t want to handle puppy energy?? Before leaving with him we asked if he’d gotten that bath and instead of answering the question, the manager/owner (I think her names Tabitha) just proceeded to talk badly about our dog. My partner said, “right you just told me you thought he was too much, I’m just asking if he was given a bath like we were told he’d be given.” The owner replied “I’m not sure.” She should not be allowed to operate this business. Ended up being a blessing in disguise because we found a new daycare - Kate is pricier than paws play but the dogs run around outside, and she seems like she loves what she does. She’s also only said very nice things about our pup - “he’s always so positive” for example. He’s got high energy but he’s a very good dog. Moral of the story, Kate’s an angel and Tabitha sucks. Don’t put yourself or your dog through this.
My dog loves this daycare, he’s so happy when I pick him up. One thing that really stood out was how seriously they take the trial run to make sure your dog is a good fit. The owner mentioned that they also do “down time” so the dogs can have space and don’t run themselves ragged playing constantly. I’m very grateful they open at 5:30, which allows me to make it to work on time (only daycare in the area open this early, btw!). Staff members are always so kind and friendly. Really glad we found this place.
Best doggy daycare ANYWHERE!!! Super great staff and doggy friends for our Mika. We take our pup once a week when my husband goes into the office. Mika is always so super excited to go in that it’s hard for her to contain her excitement. Aside from the daycare we’ve also had Mika stay for boarding. We like that she gets her own space and not have to be in a kennel since she doesn’t stay in a kennel at home. Seriously we could not be happier with Paws Play.
Our dog loves Paws Play! We tried other daycares before we found Paws Play on a recommendation from our boarder. The others were bigger groups and didn't seem to interact with the dogs too much and our dog didn't seem too happy to be there. After his first day at Paws Play he was tired and happy and definitely enjoyed the smaller pack there and the interaction the staff has with him. Now he knows when we are there and runs to the door to get in! It is nice to know that he is in caring hands while we are working as he is able to play but they give him time to rest too when they see he is tired. We are so glad we found Paws Play and our pup is too!
My Chloe loves paws play! We have done both daycare and boarding here and each time we come back she is just so excited to be there! She always comes back home so happy and the staff here enjoy having her. They are always happy to tell me how she was while she was boarding/at daycare and point out her doggy friends. They accommodate to her needs, she doesn’t do well in kennels or in the suites (she is a stage 5 clinger and just wants to be around someone) so they accommodate her and don’t force her to stay in there. She also loves playing ball and the last time I picked her up they had given her her own ball that she just carried around all day. I seriously cannot recommend this place enough. We had a terrible experience boarding our Chloe at another place, she came back a zombie and was obviously not happy to be there at all. I have not seen anything remotely close to our experience with the first place at paws play! They treat the pups like their own and give them the freedom to run around and play all day long. I am so happy that we found paws play!
Our pup Cedar has been coming since June 2022. The prices for daycare and boarding are very reasonable. They do great fun events and always show the dogs having a good time on Instagram. My dog loves coming back here each time. They know her well and greet her everytime she comes in. They have been great when she needed transportation and they were great calming my nerves the 1st time we boarded her. Just a good caring place to bring your dog.
