My stay with Astrid and her wonderful pets was truly delightful. Her warm hospitality, impeccable home, and charming pets made it a memorable experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Astrid to anyone seeking a pet-sitting opportunity. Thank you, Astrid, for your welcoming spirit, and I look forward to staying with you and your furry friends again in the future!
The dogs are awesome - they're so sweet and so easy to care for. All they really want is someone to cuddle with and give them treats, it's that easy. Also the home/area is perfect. Close walking distance to downtown, there's a movie theatre a 10 minute walk away and the house is cozy, & clean - it's easy to make yourself at home. And lastly, Madri and Chris are so friendly. They kept in contact easily, made sure I was comfortable and were genuinely so easy to get along with it felt more like meeting old friends. Would absolutely recommend sitting for them.
Libby and I thoroughly enjoyed our time near Bishops Waltham. Gairn and Gary were most welcoming and very prepared for their sitters. They have such a lovely home and garden set in a pretty village. We enjoyed a great Sunday roast at the pub close by. A car is essential here. The location allowed us to visit Winchester and Portsmouth which we enjoyed. Chui and Kazi are beautiful pussy cats and we just loved looking after them. They are great company and easy to care for. We highly recommend this sit and would be very happy to return here should the opportunity arise.
I only stayed for the weekend, but Caroline made me very very welcome! The house is lovely, in a beautiful part of the world, and the cats were a delight! Would recommend :)
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Nick and Remy's beautiful house, and my fortnight of adventures and cuddles with the whole gang. Nick and Remy were so welcoming and extremely helpful when I arrived, and as I don't drive, even took the time to pick me up from Shipston on Stour, before giving the grand tour and introducing me to all the animal and going over their daily routines. I felt very at home and comfortable immediately - the only frustration was that they were leaving and I didn't have a chance to hang out with them both for a little longer, as well! The whole gang are wonderful, each with their own distinct personalities. The cats are relatively self-sufficient and don't need much at all, though they are all extremely friendly. Silvie and Nikki were both very sweet and affectionate but did keep themselves to themselves a little more. Jasper has a wonderful relationship with one of the dogs, Cilla, and they play together and groom each other in a really lovely way! Chantal is just as independent as the others, but she and I did form a very close bond during my stay! She was such a gentle and affectionate little soul! The dogs all absolutely love to cuddle and while Foxy isn't quite up to hijynks anymore, due to her age, the other two certainly are! I loved running around and playing with me and playing hide and seek in the nearby corn fields on our walks. I hope they all enjoyed my stay as much as I did, and I hope I get to see them all again at some point in the future!
I really enjoyed this sit with Moss! He was friendly, playful, lovey and super smart. What he really likes is for you to chase him, so we played fetch, only to have him chase after it (ball, rope, frisbee) then lay down and wait for you. (!!!) I had a learning curve, lol. He has friends next door that he loved to go visit each day. He was really great with tricks, especially his scent work to "find it," and always found the treat. The space was comfortable, with a nice kitchen, although we spent a lot of time outside. The mornings and evenings in the springtime were cool and lovely. The location was fairly central to downtown Nashville and anywhere I went. Mitch was nice and responsive to questions and very accommodating. I'd definitely sit here again. Thanks, Mitch and Moss!

Holly and her team are just the best — we don’t know what we would do without Rocket Dog. We are huge worriers about our high energy dog and in the years we’ve been taking him to RD (for both daycare and boarding) we’ve never had anything less than an amazing experience. It’s become like a second home to him and he gets sooo excited when we tell him it’s time to go to “daycare!” We’re so grateful for this team of knowledgeable, caring, professional dog lovers!!
Love having a spot like this in the city with so much space for the pups to play. The vibe definitely is more like a “homestay” than most other spots which is great for my boys who dont do well in crated and cooped up!
I have been taking my dogs here for years and have always had a great experience. I trust Holly and her staff with my dogs 100%, I can go on vacation and not worry once because I know they’re well taken care of by a responsible caring business. I’ve sent multiple clients and friend to rocket dog, probably about 15 people, all of them have had really good experiences. 10/10 recommend rocket dog.
We LOVED Rocket Dog and trusted them 100% with our lab Quinn. Sadly we moved away from Seattle, but they were so good to her and she was always so excited for daycare. She has epilepsy and they took such great care of her so we didn’t have to worry when boarding her. I wouldn’t take her anywhere else in Seattle.
Excellent place to take your dog for daycare. We bring ours one a week just to get a long day of playtime and tire him out. He is so excited when we pull up to Rocket Dog, it's his favorite place! The employees are very knowledgeable and attentive to the dogs. Very clean and organized as well. Highly recommended!
We take our dog here for both daycare and overnight boarding and he loves it!
I love that rocket dog is off-leash and outdoor-based! They take trips to dog parks, daily. After 3 months with rocket dog, and I suddenly noticed that my shy little dog was running around with the pack and he knew how to swim. Amazing!!
Sweetie loves her play time at Rocket Dog care!!! Best doggie daycare around!!!!
Great team that recognizes us and more importantly our dog. We never worry knowing our puppy is safe and having fun during the day at Rocket Dog.
Cosmos favorite place in the whole world. I've never seen him be such a rude puppy trying to claw his way through the door to get in!
I can't say enough nice things about my experience with Metro Dog. My beloved doggo is dog reactive and can't be boarded, and my neighbor who used to watch her moved away. I was nervous to engage a drop in service for walks and feeding her on the rare times I'm away from her. I've had such nice experiences with Metro Dog, I can't believe I was so nervous. The Metro Dog staff has always gone above and beyond my expectations. They give updates, take great care of my dog, and they even wash her bowl and the containers from her food? They do more than I would even expect for drop in care, it's excellent value for a reasonable price. And needless to say I come home to a happy dog!
Wonderful caring folks who know how to make your puppy happy in your absence. They are highly trained, friendly and professional. They have reasonable rules for all dogs to have their vaccinations. The facility is clean and designed to keep your pup occupied. This is one of the best facilities I have come across and our dog Daisy loved her time here.
I recently started using Metro Dog’s day care with my pup, it’s been a great experience so far. They have been great since trial day, and consistently through day care. My pup’s super excited at drop off and happy (and exhausted!) at pick up. I will consider Metro Dog for boarding services, too!
So I have not been to Metro Dog exactly but I did sit in on the Metro Dog staff's "Walks & Wags Pet First Aid" class and it was excellent. It was held out at Fleet Reserve Association Branch 310 in Silverdale, WA, was a ten hour course and really was completely worth it. It's a lot of information but I really thought that everyone did a really good job of keeping us attention deficit folks on track. I would definitely recommend to all who can make the trip!
So if anyone has gone on vacation with a dog, you know that you are limited on what you can do. We decided that during our 19 day vacation we would have one day where the dog was in daycare so that we can visit places where a dog is not allowed. I have a 2.6lb 5 year old yorkie. (This is important.) I started 6 months ago trying to find a place for her for one day. It took me four (yes, four) different daycare that turned me down. Two would not take a dog of her size because she would be trampled, one said that they do not take out of state dogs, and the last stated that they are full. Thankfully the lady at this last one recommended Metro Dog. I am so glad she did. They were so nice and very sweet to her. They accommodated her and honestly evaluated how she is with her staff and other dogs. I would recommend them to anyone.
We've recently started daycare for our dog at Metro Dog and couldn't be happier with the location, team, and care. Our dog is excited each day at drop off and the team is super welcoming. Highly recommend!
I cannot begin to start how happy I am with Metro dog I was a new dog owner in April and very nervous about daycare. They were very reassuring, and with each day Harley spent at Metro dog her confidence began to increase. At first she was nervous too but now she is wagging her tail, and eager to go in every time we drop her off. She has boarded twice now and every time she comes home, she is clean happy and exhausted. Which is fantastic because we know she is having a great time playing with all her dog friends. I cannot recommend this place enough.
Metro Dog is a good facility with helpful staff. For our first day of dog daycare, they went through all the details and showed us the facility via cameras. They also took our dog’s food to feed him during the day and took care of play and rest time. We will surely take our pup for daycare/boarding here.
If I could leave negative stars I would. We left our dog with Metro Dog for 32 hours and we managed to have to take him to the vet for two separate issues the next day. 1) Our dog had a hot spot we were trying to have him avoid licking. We instructed staff to keep an eye out and if they were not able to stop him from licking to at least let us know if he was doing it. Staff did not notify us upon picking him up, nor stop him from licking, as we had to take him into the vet as the hot spot got infected. 2) Our dog also returned to our care with a limp. Upon examination it appeared that the skin on his paw pads was raw and torn up. The day we left him was extremely hot and I imagine the staff did not attempt to protect the dogs’ paw pads letting them run around. This is conjecture but, when we picked him up, we were not notified that anything was wrong, so we have to guess. The limping was clear as day. We tried to call them the next day to find out what happened, no answer. This is simply negligent. I truly hope this business gets investigated by the appropriate regulatory bodies to get them to clean their act up or to shut them down. Suffice it to say, please never leave your animal with these people. It’s not worth the risk.
My family and I were in desperate need of finding a boarding place for our dog. Metro Dog responded back after I wrote an inquiry to them and we set up a trial day. The staff have been great and our dog loves it so much that we keep bringing her back for daycare. Our dog comes back tired. At pick-up, the staff informs us that she had a great day playing with the other dogs. Will definitely keep bringing our dog to Metro Dog Daycare and utilize their boarding. Staff is superb and seems to be well-trained to deal with all types of dogs.
When we first contacted Pete he was super responsive and he was able to take King on July 4th weekend for boarding. As we did our research we realized this wasn’t a commercial place where they have a large amount of dogs which we really wanted for King We told him he had separation anxiety and said it wouldn’t be a problem. We also received updates from him throughout the day. Pete’s accommodation for late pick up was greatly appreciated since we were held up from our drive on the way to get him. Upon arrival, King looked super happy to see us, looked well rested and fine. Pete said he was a perfect dog and we really appreciate his words! We’ll definitely have Pete take care King for boarding and day care if needed. Thank you Pete!
Pete was an enormous help to us when I was having my baby. He was willing to have a flexible drop off time, and he even said that he would leave his phone on in case the baby came in the middle of the night. When it was time, my dog (who had never met him) instantly liked him and was happy to be left at his house. Pete sent pictures of my dog having a nice time, and seemed genuinely happy to have my dog stay with him. He even gave my dog a toy to take home with us! Pete's services were above and beyond what I was expecting, he treated us like friends even though we were strangers. I am so happy we found him, and I would absolutely recommend him!
We needed a place for our reactive dog to stay for the day while went for a hike on a trail with many other dogs. Pete was responsive & communicative and sent us many photos of our dog. Thank you so much!!
Pete does a good job at reasonable price. Very reliable and consistent. Plus allows late pickup which is useful for travelers like me.
Such an amazing and stress free experience! We were expecting and didn’t really know how to plan for dog boarding. When I called to inquiry, I was met with ease free info and assurance that they’ll work with us and completely understand. We have two bulldogs, and when we picked them up they were both in good spirits. One of our dogs is a lot to handle. They seemed to have no issues and were very understanding. So grateful for Seattle Dog Boarding and allowing us to focus on welcoming a new baby girl while our dogs were in good hands!
Absolutely the most inhumane and unprofessional doggy daycare. Lets just say we didn’t end up leaving our dog at Seattle Dog Boarding but they charged us for the entire booking. So be forewarned… They make you pay upfront with no tour of the facility; which hindsight all makes sense as if you saw the rundown house and the folks that live there you wouldn’t leave your dog there either. Pete wasn’t there when we showed up to drop off our dog. No one answered the door, so we called Pete hoping we were at the wrong location. He had to call a “roommate” to come to the door. By that time, we already decided that we weren’t going to leave our dog there and politely asked for our money back. The roommate said we needed to handle with Pete who finally texted us and said there are no refunds but we could book for another time. I can see Pete asking for us to pay for the first day and reimbursing us the remaining amount but no he outright refused.
So happy we found Pete and Seattle Dog Boarding to take care of our huge 7 month old puppy and our 15 year old dog. They are at such different stages in life and I never thought I would find someone to handle both of their needs. We just returned from a 10 day trip and both dogs were so well cared for and came home happy and healthy. The senior dog had space to chill and relax and the puppy had a blast playing with other dogs. Thanks you Pete and everyone at Seattle Dog Boarding for taking such great care of Cleo and Bear!
Worst doggy daycare experience of my life. Incredibly unprofessional and not to mention expensive, as a single day of daycare is $69 (which they make you pay up front with no tour of the "facility", which is just a rundown house). In addition, they don't make you provide proof of vaccinations. I dropped my dog off at the house. Pete wasn't there when I dropped her off, but his roommate was. This man didn't look like he should be around dogs. These dogs are our children, so if a man can't take care of himself then I'm not sure how I can trust him to take care of my dog. Incredibly unprofessional and off-putting. I knew in my gut something was off, so I returned 10 minutes later...she was alone in a house full of larger dogs she had never met before. There was zero staff inside. I had to call Pete so that he could find someone to return my dog to me. I waited 10 minutes for a "roommate" to emerge from behind the house took my dog and left immediately. This is an INCREDIBLY SHADEY place. It's dirty, disgusting, and probably a front.
They had my 1 1/2 year old Yellow Lab for six days and took excellent care of her. She is a hand full and a very busy girl. They keep her busy, they played with her and took her for daily walks. They even sent me pictures of her playing with other dogs in the program. I think they are great and I can fully recommend Seattle Dog Boarding as a good place to board your dog!
Our dog spent a night at Pete's house during a quick trip to Seattle where our regular boarding options back home weren't going to work out. Pete was very accommodating and our dog had a great time and made buddies with the other dogs. We would use Seattle Dog Boarding again.
I was fostering an extremely active pup who needed A LOT of engagement and I honestly would not have survived without Fetch! Pet Care. Bleu LOVED his walkers, especially Jacob, and you could tell the feeling was mutual. Every interaction with the entire team was positive, even from the people behind the scenes. I was admittedly a little apprehensive having never used this type of service, but I am so glad I reached out to their team. The app and updates make engagement trackable and seamless and the cute photos are an added perk!
I have been using Fetch for several years to help care for my 2 cats and 1 dog while I'm away, and their care team gives me peace of mind that my pets are being loved and nurtured. The app is easy to use and the team is very communicative. I love the written summaries and photos. Also - many many times I have gotten some of my travel details wrong and they have worked with me graciously to adjust coverage. Thanks for everything Fetch Care Team!
Highly recommend Fetch! I’ve been using them mostly for weekend park adventures & mid week playgroups but they have everything you could need for your doggo. My Louie has THE best time in this backyard playgroup running around with other pups. He has some on leash aggression but plays great w everyone off leash so this option is perfect for him! This company has easy online /app scheduling & great communication. Pricing seems consistent with other places too. :) they also send me the best & most hilarious photos of him 😍
Fetch has always done an excellent job of taking care of our pets. We've used their various services over the last several years and all of the care team members are so caring and communicative. Highly recommended!!
For several years I've had Fetch! take care of my cats when I'm out of town, and they have been consistently excellent. The app that shows you every visit with photos, updates and the ability to comment has been a great aspect of their services. I really appreciate the "care team" approach that lets me (or really, my cats) build relationships with sitters over time, getting to know a few friendly faces and so being able to relax and be comfortable (and spoiled!) while I'm not with them.
I’ve been using Fetch services for nearly 10 years for my kitties-the old ones have passed on and I adopted 3 new kitties in 2023. Their pet sitters have been great covering the needed tasks, playing with kitties, and sending photos and reports for each visit. Highly recommend this service!
My pup & I love Fetch! She eagerly awaits her walks, loves everyone she's met at Fetch, and clearly always has a great time on her walks. I love the pictures and updates I get about her walk, the ease and convenience of scheduling, and the reassurance of knowing she's in really great hands. We highly recommend Fetch to everyone!
We've used Fetch many times, the last few with Min sitting for our dog. Min is amazing--she takes wonderful photos and it's clear in each picture that our slightly nervous dog is completely at ease with her. She even fills our dog's bucket for water play time! We also really appreciate the peace of mind using Fetch--I know that if something were to come up and our sitter couldn't be there (though it's never happened), Fetch would go out of its way to find a replacement. Not to mention the sitters are all bonded and insured. We're so happy to have found Fetch and will continue to use them in the future.
I have had amazing experiences with their cat sitting services. My cats love Ittai, Beverly, and Irina. These 3 ladies do an excellent job and have been able to accommodate last minute bookings. I feel at ease knowing my kitties are getting tons of loves and cuddles when I am away. Thank you ladies so much! You all do an amazing job!
We've worked with Fetch! Seattle for a few years now. They've been walking our rescue since we adopted her! They are a great group of people and I always feel confident that our dog walker is trust worthy and going to do the best for our pup!
A truly wonderful option for dog sitting on Bainbridge! Our 6 year old boxer mix stayed for a week and we had such a great experience. Zoraida was really flexible with us and our schedule, she had a thorough chat with us ahead of time to understand our dog’s needs/behaviors/quirks, and was very communicative throughout the stay. Our pup’s needs were taken care of and she got a lot of love and attention throughout her stay. Honestly was more than we could have hoped for! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe and reliable dog sitter.
Our three pups, Banjo, Baxter, and Piper had a great time staying at Bainbridge Pet Resort over the Labor Day weekend! Zoraida was very alternative to each of our dogs’ unique needs and provided lots of photos and updates during their five night stay. The accommodations for the dogs were clean and comfortable, with lots of outdoor space for them to roam around. Piper enjoyed exploring the fully fenced-in forest, while Baxter took in the rays on the deck, and Banjo strolled through the yard. One of the biggest determining factors we had in searching for a place to board our dogs was to find a place that would be comfortable for all of them and someone who would be attentive to their needs, including adapting to their unique personalities. Banjo, who isn’t always a fan of meeting new people, was quick to warm up the Zoraida and we were thoroughly impressed at how comfortable and at ease she made him feel during their stay. Our pups will definitely be returning to Bainbridge Pet Resort! 🐾
Excellent experience. We have 3 dogs, including two seniors, and it can be hard to find a place with availability that also gives plenty of attention and care to each dog. Zoraida was the perfect match. Great communication and gave each of our dogs plenty of exercise, love, and attention. The kennel set up is spacious and cozy. Our dogs loved running around the huge yard, and the 6' perimeter fence was perfect for our youngest pup who loves to jump lower fences. They clearly loved their time there and came home nice and tired, and can't wait to go back next time.
Bainbridge Pet Resort was the perfect spot for our 5 year old pup Espolon, who stayed with Zoraida and Dealy for a week in April. The wooded private property is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood outside of Winslow. The secluded location provides a calming, restful environment for your pet, but also plenty of opportunity to play, run, roam and explore. The large fully fenced enclosure is primarily lawn allowing ample space for afternoon zoomies. Surrounding the lawn is a wooded perimeter with paths and trails where dogs can safely hunt and explore in the forested area. A separate meet and greet (sniff & wag) fenced area allows for dogs to be safely introduced and interact, while providing double-controlled gates to the main enclosure for added security. The area would also double as a play area for smaller pups. The overnight accommodations are sparkling clean, secure and comfortable. The space is also setup for Zoraida to hangout with the dogs if any of the pooches are anxious or need extra attention. Dealy and Zoraida were wonderful and obviously very knowledgable about caring for dogs. We opted for the off-site hikes, so in addition to interactive morning and afternoon playtime, Zoraida took Espolon for walks to the nearby beaches and park. The location is a bit off the beaten path, so it was great Bainbridge Pet Resort offered the taxi service as it made retrieveing Espolon very convenient after our travel day. Coming from Seattle, BPR will be perfect for our next trip to the Olympic Peninsula. Espolon loved his stay and can’t way to go back and play with his friends in the coastal tree-covered playfields of Bainbridge Island. 🐾
Our two dogs have stayed here for several nights. The most telling thing? The second time we came, they became excited in the car as we arrived, hen happily jumped out of the car when the door opened, and excitedly ran off into the open area to play! My Doodle can be a bit anxious, but he very quickly became acclimated and was curiously checking everything and everyone out, tail waging, happy and smiling. Having such a beautiful place, lovingly designed, with caring owners who obviously truly love dogs, makes all the difference!
Our dog was so well taken care of at Bainbridge Pet Resort. From our first call, Zoraida was easy to communicate with and alleviated any concerns I had about leaving our dog for the first time. Our dog got the chance to stay overnight a few times and every time drop off and pick up were a breeze and from Zoraida’s daily communications, it was clear our dog was having a great time. Zoraida also helped us navigate our dog’s anxiety, providing helpful recommendations to help our dog feel more comfortable. I would happily leave my dog in their care again and highly recommend.
I have known Wendy for a few years and have benefited greatly from her work as a dog sitter from occasional dog walking to emergency boarding. When I fell and broke my hip Wendy was the first to pick up my Sophie and take her in until I was able to come home from the hospital. She is a warm & gentle dog person and incredibly sensitive to the needs of both owners and their pets. I can’t recommend her enough.🩷🐾🩷
My golden retriever, Langdon, LOVES seeing Wendy. He is high energy and can be unpredictable around other dogs, but I always feel comfortable when he is with Wendy. She goes above and beyond taking care of him and I would trust her in any situation with him. She also takes the cutest photos to share with me while I am gone!
Such an attentive dog walker and Wendy takes the best pet photos, too! It's clear how much she loves her work and animals! She's incredibly responsible and thoughtful. She was recommended to us by a friend who also adores her. She recently watched Gemma for a few days and it is clear that she was so well cared for and had a blast! Have total trust in her ability to provide TLC to pups!
My pets love Wendy because she is enthusiastic and playful. I love Wendy because she loves animals, and takes good care of my pets and house, She is also very professional and reliable! Wendy has even brought my dog extra treats and toys! Wendy is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. She also takes awesome photos! I highly recommend her!
We highly recommend Wendy. Our pups adore her and it’s clear she genuinely loves dogs. Wendy is communicative, reliable and takes the best photos! We trust her completely, knowing she treats our dogs like her own.
Wendy is wonderful! Our two boisterous young dogs adore her. I’m not surprised, because they have wonderful adventures with her! She sees them as people and treats them as the very different individuals they are. She’s super flexible with the humans, communicates well, and is a pleasure to have in our extended, blended family.
Wendy is amazing with my senior pet, Lady! Wendy is reliable, caring, and a real pleasure to have pop in and out of our house a few times each week. I have great peace of mind with Wendy for pet care, and it is such a bonus to receive a beautiful picture of Lady after each walk, along with an update about her activities and any issues or concerns that arise. Wendy is timely, considerate, and helpful, and I feel grateful for her partnership in caring for Lady when I can’t be there.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Wendy as our dog sitter for both overnight stays and a two-week vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. Wendy clearly adores our dog, Kiwi, and always goes above and beyond, taking Kiwi on long walks and exciting adventures. One standout aspect of Wendy’s service is her incredible photography skills—her photos of Kiwi are so professional that we’ve saved many of them as cherished memories. Wendy also took great care of our home, leaving it spotless upon our return. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness make her truly exceptional. We’re already planning to use Wendy’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and talented dog sitter.
I can't say enough good things about Wendy! Our dog absolutely adores her and loses his mind with happiness when she comes to pick him up. Wendy is reliable, responsible, and goes above and beyond with her care. After each walk, she provides delightful updates and the most amazing photos. She has a way with dogs and many of our neighbors have used her services and also love her. We truly appreciate the peace of mind she gives us, knowing that our dog is in such good hands and will come back happy and tired from his adventures.
Wendy is the best! She came recommended by my friend, and I’m so glad we have her for housesitting and occasional walks. She is very communicative, detail oriented, and thoughtful when it comes to caring for our two dogs. I appreciate that she goes above and beyond by making chicken and rice when it appears a dog has an upset stomach, sharing odd behaviors she notices to confirm whether they’re normal, etc. She also handles our rambunctious puppy very well. All the cute photos are a bonus!
Yani is the BEST! My cat Timon absolutely LOVES her. I mean just look at that photo! She is so great with him and I always come back to a happy cat. You can tell Yani truly loves and cares for animals. She is super reliable and I never have to worry when I’m gone. I’m moving out of state and am so sad to leave such a wonderful caregiver for my precious little baby.
We love Yani! She takes great care of our two cats whenever we're away. We've always found her to be responsive and reliable. She's also been flexible and attentive to evolving needs as our cats have aged. Highly recommend her services!
We love Yani! I'm a, um...somewhat neurotic cat mom, and I kind of used to think I'd never find a petsitter I trusted enough to leave my cat with. But Yani is wonderful. She's responsible, reliable, and very patient with my also somewhat neurotic cat. :)
I've been having Yani take care of my two cats for all travel for the past several years and have only had exceedingly positive experiences with her. My cats are challenging: not friendly, and needed pills each visit. She's intuitive, leaves great notes on how the time went and is very responsive via text message if I have any worries. I recommend Yani to all of my friends needing a pet sitter. If you're looking to find a long term pet sitter who will give the best care to your fur babies, look no further... Yani is wonderful at what she does.
Yani has been catsitting for my two cats for the last 4 years. She's amazing! She's reliable, she sends photos with every visit, and she always leaves a note at the end of a trip to let me know how things went with the cats. I haven't had any medical difficulties with my cats yet, but if that time ever comes, I know I can trust Yani with any medications and special needs.
When I moved to a new neighborhood, I had to say goodbye to our long-time pet sitter because I was moving out of their service area. I'm a cat sitter too and have high expectations. I am sooo happy to have found Yani who has surpassed my expectations! It's great to talk shop with her, my cats adore her, she shared a tip which helped slow my fast eater kitty down more than what I had come up with. Yani takes the most wonderful photos of our cats when she visits. We feel very lucky to have moved into her service area!!
Lucky Pet Petsitting and Yani are the best! I am so grateful to have found this team. Yani has been the most caring and wonderful sitter for our cat. We were looking for someone familiar with raw food and Yani knows her stuff! She is very thoughtful and really takes the time to connect with our furry companion. I have the utmost trust in Yani and know that our cat is in excellent care when we are away!
We've been using Yani for many years and she is absolutely the best cat sitter. Extremely reliable, professional, and responsive. Our cats are always relaxed and happy when we return home.
Yani is hands down the best pet sitter we have ever had. She cared for our dear cat Tasha when we went on trips. She really has a magical, kind, and caring way of connecting with cats. She took good care of a mix of foods and medicine our cat required. When we returned from the first trip that Yani watched our cat, Tasha got in our laps for the first time in the 6 years we had had her. We owe all of this to Yani’s socialization skills. Yani stayed in close contact by txt and frequently sent beautiful pictures. I would trust Yani and her carefully selected team any day. We really owe a lot to her. -Aaron P
Five stars is not enough to describe the quality of service Yani provides! As a couple who travels frequently, it was becoming a burden asking friends/neighbors to check in on the cats or planning short enough trips so we wouldn't leave them alone for long. Luckily, I found Yani via a Facebook page and she's made a world of difference for us! Starting with the initial "getting to know you" visit, it was clear Yani absolutely loves animals and is passionate about her field. She took the time to get to know both of my kitties (Piper & Moe) and made them (and me!!) feel at ease. Each visit, Yani makes sure they have food, water, a clean litter box, and plenty of pets/love. She even checks the mail/brings in packages! I look forward to the photos she sends with each visit, as well as an update on how each one behaved. It's basically as if Piper & Moe could text, LOL The peace of mind I have knowing they're safe while we're away is absolutely priceless! Thank you Yani for being so reliable, flexible, and overall great to work with! :)
Loch came home incredibly happy and ready to rest up for tomorrow. I feel at ease leaving him somewhere for the day where he is safe and happy.

Animal Magnetizm absolutely gets 5 Stars and is definitely a “Loving Island Life” kind of place!
My dog loves this place!! She has buddies, and I love hearing how her day went at pick-up. Also super convenient for days in the city or for longer Costco trip days. She has a blast and I don't feel bad about a long day away.
Very great with dogs - she gets to play with curated dogs all day. Never had a concern or injury of any sort in over a year. She comes home pooped from playing all day, great team at Animal Magnetizm!
Great place for doggy day care! My dog loves it. She told me so. Gordon and Sienna are super nice and it's obvious they care about their charges
Great socializing environment for dogs; covered/woodsy area to roam in; all dogs are well behaved. Gordon runs a first class doggy daycsre.
Doggo always comes back tired out and happy.
I have been bringing my dogs here ever since Gordon opened the doors. They absolutely love the socialization and come home tired. I couldn't ask for more.
We have been working with Strut the Pup for over a year for walking our dog Tater. We have had a few walkers over the year and they have all been absolutely lovely to work with. They show up when they say they're going to show up, they clearly love our dog and care for him and they give him lots of play time when they drop him off. We get a walk report and a photo after each walk. Tater knows when it is time for his walker Skylar to show up and he starts sitting at the door or looking out the window when the time is near. Einat and her team are highly professional and so easy to work with. Highly recommend!
Absolutely 5+ Stars!!! We rescued a dog, Alex, ten years ago. We both work and I have Strut the Pup to walk him daily. They alway provide top quality service, are good to Alex, reliable, dog lovers and are very professional. Can't say good enough things about them! The owner, Einat, and walkers are all great. When Alex sees them and runs over to them - that is the real test. They passed! I have been a loyal customer for over 10 years and highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed! Also, they handle our 12 year dog Alex so well, are totally responsive and check in regularly - great customer service and caring! They rock!!!
I started a new job last week and daily dog walks are the single thing I've splurged on. I'm so glad I did! The intake was thorough and Einat documented everything about my dog and home. My dog instantly loved Einat and her new bestie, Dana! I've only Rover and Wag for dog walks before, and I have found many wonderful sitters there, but here are the reasons I chose Strut the Pup over a service like those: - I met Einat in person at the meet and greet, and she clearly cares about the pups and the consistency of their walks. She also replies super quickly! - The one day my dog's main walker couldn't make it, Einat alerted me and took care of everything about coordinating a replacement. Alanna knew everything when she arrived and took great care of my dog! With Rover/Wag, finding a replacement would've been very stressful, but with Strut the Pup it was a breeze! - The photos are a highlight of my afternoon -- no random "here's proof your dog is alive" photos here! My dog is my baby, and I don't know how I'd be able to handle my new job without Strut the Pup. Knowing that my dog is in such good hands and that she has a playdate with Dana to look forward to in the afternoon is absolutely incredible. I get home to a happy, tired dog every day and I don't have to feel guilty about leaving her while I'm at work. I can't recommend Strut the Pup highly enough!
Strut the Pup have been the best dog walkers we have ever used! The pickup and drop-off process was seamless every time, they are very responsive to emails, paying invoices was easy, they send pictures every visit and most importantly - our dog absolutely loved his park trips. Highly recommend if you want a happy & tired pup!
I would highly recommend Strut the Pup's dog walking services. I would especially recommend Jade, as they were always so kind and careful with my dog, who can sometimes be reactive on leash to other dogs. I appreciate the care and attention they took to take care of my dog! Definitely contact Strut the Pup if you're looking for a dog walker!
I used Strut the Pup's services temporarily while I traveled cross country for my wedding in NY and they were fantastic. I never had to ask for an update, I was emailed a detailed update immediately after each walk and it took so much stress off my shoulders knowing my dog was in good hands. My dog can be quite anxious but the walker we worked with was great with her and my dog totally loved her. Definitely recommend Strut the Pup!
Second review of 5 starts because we love Strut the pup so much! Our dog has enjoyed many walks and now has been doing off leash park adventures with STP. They keep the group small and the pack leader knows our dog so well. We ran into the pack at the park when we were there a different day and our dog ran right up to Isabel, the pack leader, and was so happy to see her. He always comes back tired and happy. We trust this group completely, even with our 85 pound Bernedoodle.
We absolutely love the folks at Strut the Pup. I feel completely confident that my dog is well cared for and having a great time when she goes on walks with them. Our walker, Dana, is attentive and kind and always lets us know how the walk went and any concerns she has- and she sends a report via email after each walk as well. When we submit requests for any changes or cancelations they are always quick to respond and answer any questions as well. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for great dog walkers in the Seattle area!
We have worked with Strut the Pup for several years now, both or daily walks and occasional overnight stays at our home. Their walkers are fantastic and the owner, Einat, is very responsive and organized. I especially appreciate it since we have an anxious Shiba who is a high maintenance to say the least! I would definitely recommend entrusting Strut the Pup with your pet and in your home.
Strut The Pup is just the best! They are so accommodating with my pups needs and all it entails to get him out the door and back. I highly recommend STP!
