Doggy Day Care in Bridle Trails, Kirkland, WA

About: I am a stay-at-home-mom, and I absolutely adore dogs. I have grown up around dogs until ultimately I got my children their very own puppy four years ago. Before I got my Golden Doodle/Lab mix, I practiced quite a lot by dog-sitting for neighbors and family. I have housed both large and small dogs, and have experience with puppies all the way up to older pups. I am home doing only part-time work, so I have a lot of time to play with the dogs in my large, fenced yard, and there are several parks nearby (Bridle Trails, Taylor, South Rose Hill and Snyder dog park) where I can walk them and make sure they get plenty of exercise. Dogs are doted on, cuddled, and played with a lot, in my household. I love taking the time to get to know each dog I take care of, and I will work diligently to meet each individual dog's needs and personalities. I am a very active person all year round, so being outdoors with dogs is one of my favorite things. The dogs I care for will be well-attended to, and you can be sure they will have a blast in the large yard, and enjoy plenty of outside time. My children are 9 and 13, and will also heap love on the dogs in the home. The kids will never be left unattended with any dogs, but they are great helpers and assistants. Our dog, Dublin is four years old, and loves all dogs and people. He has a wonderful temperament and has spent quite a bit of time being socialized, and also being boarded in a home with several other dogs. I spent two years training him when he was a puppy and he is just a joy to be around–sweet, playful, well-behaved, and flexible. I can accommodate any dog-sleeping preferences. I have a large crate, as long as the dog is crate trained. I also have a dog ledge near the sofa where dogs can lounge, sleep or play with toys, as well as different size dog beds that are cleaned regularly. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on beds in my home.

“Serena and Peter took care of Hunter really well! The photo updates they provided made me comfortable about how my dog was doing. Also, their space has plenty of room for dogs to roam around. I highly recommend them!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was 14 and genuinely enjoy having them around. I leverage my extensive obedience and international search-and-rescue training background to read dogs exceptionally well, providing attentive care for both energetic and sensitive dogs. My background helps me anticipate needs and ensure a safe, structured, and fun stay. I’m certified in obedience and search-and-rescue dog training, which helps me read dogs well and provide attentive care for both energetic and sensitive dogs. Your dog will have access to plenty of indoor space and an expansive (8,400 sq. ft.) fully fenced backyard with natural grass under supervision. I’m located near the Microsoft campus and a nearby dog park. While I generally maintain a furniture-free home for larger guests, small dogs (under 40 lbs) are welcome to snuggle on the couch with me if that is their routine at home. I provide daily updates and pictures/videos, so you have peace of mind while you are away from your pet. I’m home practically all the time and structure my schedule around the dogs in my care, giving them consistent attention throughout the day. I have two friendly dogs of my own and space to separate when needed. Dogs stay in a real home environment with outdoor time, play, rest, and supervision. I send daily updates so you can see how your dog is doing and feel at ease while you’re away. I feed my dogs twice a day with small snacks during the day and can follow your dog’s usual feeding schedule. Dogs in my care are treated as part of the household. I let them out into the backyard regularly for potty breaks and fresh air, and inside they’re free to move around, play, or rest wherever they feel comfortable. I have cozy dog beds, toys, and small dogs are welcome to relax on the couch with me. I also have a separate room and crates available for dogs who enjoy quiet time or for those who are used to crate rest as part of their routine. I always follow what works best for each dog. I have two very friendly dogs of my own and welcome dogs who are comfortable around other friendly dogs in a home setting. I provide daily updates and pictures/videos, so you have peace of mind while you are away from your pet.

“Ya-Han was amazing with Snowy! I loved receiving regular updates and adorable pictures, which reassured me that Snowy was having a fantastic time. It’s clear that Ya-Han genuinely cares for the pets she looks after. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet daycare provider, and I’m looking forward to booking with her again!”

“We love Sreymom and Akina! Sreymom is a thoughtful, calm person and dog whisperer. Her home is completely dog friendly. My guys instantly warmed up to her. One of my boys has severe separation anxiety and needs a loving human around. The other is a playful, social butterfly. Akina welcomed them both and they instantly packed up. She calmed the one and played with the other. Despite it being their first visit, both boys were happy and relaxed when I picked them up. They’ve already asked when they can go see Akina and Sreymom again! Thank you and we’ll be back soon!”

“Xuemei is reliable, accommodating and friendly. Peppi loves spending time with her and her dog, Lily. This is Peppi’s second time coming to her place and it looks like he will keep coming back.”

“Steve was great! It was a last minute booking. We had to stay in a hotel over the weekend and we had our dog. We knew she would whine and bark if we left her but we had relatives come to town unexpectedly. He is very prompt in his responses and sent multiple pictures, even in a few hours that he had her :-). I would definitely recommend Steve!”

Sharon C.

“Suyu is excellent and taking care of my dog- I couldn’t ask for better help. If you’re looking for a consistent and communicative sitter- look no further and book with Suyu.”

Tarron C.

“This is my first time using dog daycare. Daniela did an amazing job and let me feel at ease. She was so kind and loving with my puppy. My puppy had a good time with her. She was a quick communicator during the initial booking and greeting process, and sent lots of videos and pictures for update during my puppy’s stay. I definitely will use her services again. Highly recommended!”

Su S.

“My puppy had a great time at Steve’s home, got home so tired of playing all day. Steve is responsible, paid attention to Coco’s need, and was communicative during the day. Steve’s dogs are very sweet. I brought back home a happy puppy, and that’s say it all.”

Adriana P.

“Today was my dogs first daycare stay with Jingjing and he loved it. He is usually nervous when I leave him but she did a great job of getting him settled & she sent several updates throughout the day showing pictures of their walks & just relaxing at home. Very satisfied.”

Liz K.

“Amy was amazing! She invited us into her home during our initial meeting and our pup immediately felt right at home. Amy took our pup to the dog park, gave him lots of cuddles, and ensured he received his meds in the evening. She sent us plenty of photos throughout the day and was so responsive to texts. We definitely plan to book Amy again! Thank you, Amy!”
