“James has a great outdoor space for the dogs! They sent updates of my dog running around with their other dogs! My dog had a lot of fun and was exhausted his first day home!”
“Sarah was great she read our dog exactly the way she is she kept us updated everyday with pictures and videos of our dog. Absolutely would recommend and will be requesting her again.”
“Amazing as always. I actually got the flu while they were keeping her and they were more than willing to keep her for an additional night. I don’t know how I would have done it without them.”
“Kana and her husband are WONDERFUL people! They took great care of Piper and he appeared to have loved his time there. We live out of state and I was worried about who I got and how Piper would like them, I was so happy I chose them! They have a great yard to let the dogs run and all is very well kept and clean. I would not hesitate to use Kana again if we are ever in the area! Thanks for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Amy is the absolute best and our dogs love her. They are excited every time they get to her house! She provides updates and lots of pictures throughout their stay.”
“Bobbi is the best sitter I have had! My dog fit in perfectly at her home and was comfortable to entire visit. Bobbi kept me updated and was very flexible with our situation. Will most definitely book with her anytime I need a sitter in the future!”
“I recently boarded my Husky, Aiko, with Raaeel, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident he was in great hands. Raaeel and her husband are an amazing team professional, kind, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. Their location near Tacoma City Center is super convenient, which made drop-off and pick-up a breeze. What really stood out was the level of care they provided. Raaeel sent me daily photo updates of Aiko, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, active, and well taken care of. She also offered grooming services at a discounted rate, and Aiko came back looking fresh and well groomed, it was a great bonus on top of already excellent boarding. You can tell they treat pets like family. I highly recommend Raaeel to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet boarding, sitting, and grooming needs.”
“Absolutely wonderful with my puppy Dante. Good communication, friendly and sent me updates for peace of mind. I will definitely be using them again when I am out of town or need a break from puppy. Thank you!”
“Margaret was amazing. She sent pictures and kept in contact with us each morning and night. She sent pictures and made sure there was always open communication! Larry felt right at home with the other two dogs! I will be definitely using them again!!”
“As usual Jennifer was fantastic with my dogs. One of my dogs Lucy was having some heat exhaustion problems or potentially from a seed that was caught in her throat (strange constant licking and vomiting for first hour and a half that resulted in me calling vets while at Jennifer's house). That resulted in her needing some extra attention and Jennifer did everything should possibly could to ensure she was comfortable and well taken care of with plenty of updates! My other dog, being the doofus he is, was just having a good time as always!”
“Jeremy is the best, always updates with pictures and let’s us know how Scout is doing throughout his stay. Wouldn’t want anyone else to watch our pup.”
“Dana was wonderful. Sophie and Bodhi loved her. Bodhi is a special needs dog, visually impaired. She made a point to make sure that Bodhi was comfortable and was included with the group. Thank you Dana!”
“Dina and Irma were amazing! They kept me updated on my Tucker and sent me pictures of him playing and having fun thru out the week. When I picked him up they accommodated me perfectly, had everything ready to go, and he was clean and happy! That’s all I could ask of a perfect dog sitter, would highly recommend and use them again in the future.”
“Kerry was an absolute wonderful host. My dog Hank had a blast with his dog Koa, was given plenty of treats and attention, and they have a great fenced in front yard to play in. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot for our pup.”
“Thawane was great with our dog! She communicated very well before and during dog sitting. We could tell our dog got a lot of attention and love while she was with her. Would go to her again!”
“Alexys is the best. She is kind, patient, and gentle. She took extra time to learn all the quirks of my dog and went above and beyond in caring for my little man. She provided regular updates/photos and upon picking up my dog, it was clear he had had a calm, safe, and nurturing stay. 100% would book again. Thank you so much ❤️”
“Chyenne and her kids loved on my baby like he was their own. The picture updates were the sweetest and he was treated with lots of snuggles and family time; even riding with them around town when they ran some errands. I appreciate how included and loved my boi must have felt! I'll definitely bring him again. This is what boarding should be. Thank you so much Chyenne and family!”
“I cannot thank Ariel enough for the incredible stay Moony had with her. She sends lots of pictures and updates, always asks my permission to give him special treats, and loves him as if he were her own. We’ll definitely use her when we need boarding again and I’d recommend her to everyone.”
“We feel so secure leaving our dog with Lahela. Our dog is always thrilled to arrive at Lahela's home, eagerly rushing inside to see her and her daughter, almost forgetting we're even there! It's wonderful to know that your pet feels happy and secure when you bring them to a sitters house. We have had our dog stay with Lahela many times and will continue to do so, and would absolutely recommend her services to other dog owners. Lahela always keeps you updated and sends pictures.”
