Dog Boarding in Kent

Hi, please read this all, thank you.

My name is Tamar and I am just an animal lover! I was born and raised on the Eastside and I know all of the awesome places to take the dogs out and play. I’m not a big fan of dog parks but we do go to Newcastle beach park several times a week. It’s technically not a dog park but there is a huge field and some trails to go on. I also enjoy taking the dogs on the trails in my neighborhood. I only go to offleash areas so if your pup cannot be trusted off leash, they will enjoy a walk with us instead.

We have a pretty busy household, pets, kids etc. we can handle a lot of responsibility. If one of your main concerns is how many dogs will I be hosting, then this might not be the best fit for you. We love hosting a group of fun pups.

The dogs are allowed on furniture and often sleep with myself or my kiddos.

My home is comfortable, large, and pet friendly! I would love for your pet to join our family in the ideal environment for comfort, safety and fun.

If you’re booking with me, here are some helpful tips. I will do drop offs as early as 7 am Mon-Fri, so if your flight is earlier than my drop off, you’ll need to book for the day before.

I’ll do pick ups until 9 pm, so if your flight gets in later, then please book through the next day.

On Sat-Sun the earliest drop off I’ll do is 9am. It is the only 2 days we get to sleep in, lol

Any questions, please reach out.

Full disclosure on your pups behaviors is much appreciated and super helpful ensuring a safe, fun stay with us.

Vaccinations records required before booking.

About this sitter:

I am a very outgoing, fun person. I absolutely love children and all animals. I have wonderful references.

I’ve been called the cat and dog whisperer most of my life, lol.

Why I love dog sitting

I have been a dog and cat lover all of my life. I wouldn’t be truly happy without pets in my life.

Hi there! I'm Jean and you can bring your dog to my house for individualized care. I have a beautiful fenced-in grass yard on a 1/3 of an acre in a quiet neighborhood just outside the Maple Valley area. There are lots of shady and sunny spots to roam around in and discover.

I'm originally from Montana, but have lived in Washington since 1996--first on Alki Beach and now in the delightfully wooded Maple Valley area. I've received two high tech degrees in Washington state since arriving and have worked in the high tech industry throughout my career. I'm semi-retired and stay at home full time, so I have a lot of time--and love-- to give to your beloved pets. The dogs and I enjoy relaxing on my large deck or playing fetch on the expansive grassy lawn. During cold and rainy days, we stay inside and play and relax.

Each dog is unique and I will treat your dog like the individual they are. If your dog is larger than average, no problem! I have experience with large breeds such as Dobermans, Danes, and Great Pyrenees. We have a HUGE heart for tiny dogs and seniors as well. Our Zoey was 17 years old Springer Spaniel when she passed away in May 2018. She was good-natured and didn’t mind having other furry friends around, even though she barked a little at the new dogs. She was 107 in human years, so she's just letting the new dogs know she's fragile.

If you have puppies, that's GREAT, our Lulu is a labradoodle puppy and LOVES to play with dogs of any age and size! I'd love to help maintain your puppy training when you're away. However, I don’t take puppies that are yet too young to be vaccinated. This is for the protection of your puppy, as well as the dogs that stay here.

I'd love to set up a meet and greet with you to learn more about your special pup. Please let me know if you have any questions!

***Please note, my Boarding rate charges are by the Calendar Day. We will discuss drop off and pick up times and the nominal additional charge. ***

***I have a Big heart for senior dogs--my 17 year old Zoey was very dear to me. If your senior has severe issues with bowel or incontinence, I respectfully ask that we defer to puppy care rates because of the amount of time that will be dedicated to caring for, cleaning up after, and making your senior dog comfortable during their stay with me.****

*** Furbo Dog Camera **** Rover has rewarded me with a Furbo Dog Cam. I am one of only 100 sitters nationwide to be selected. "We want to thank you for being an amazing Rover sitter by sending you a free treat tossing Furbo dog camera." You, as pet owners, can see and talk to your dogs—and even toss them a treat or two—all with the easy-to-use Furbo app. It’s an awesome way to stay connected to your dog while you are away.

Our service is suspended intil further notice!

"Rover continues to monitor updates from the CDC and the WHO and follow their specific recommendations..... please consider whether you should cancel any services on Rover to reduce the risk of spreading germs to others."

We're happy to welcome all well behaved dogs to stay in our home. My husband and I have one friendly small dog for your pup(s) to play with and we also have cats. We are already acclimated to having dog visitors and our dog is well socialized and accepting of visiting canines.

Our backyard is secure and fully fenced, for potty break access and play time. We live in Three Tree Point neighborhood in Burien with plenty of areas for walking.

I work from home and I have a lot of time for pets. I love them all and try to give them everything they need and more, love, comfort ,fun and attention. Every guest pet becomes a member of our family. You can go about your life, rest assured that your doggy is save, happy and in good company .

I have been a dog owner and lover all my life and have been sitting them for over five years through Rover. I live with my family in the foothills of Tiger Mountain in Issaquah, Washington, with a fully fenced backyard. This is my business, so I'm always there to play and watch over your dog. With almost an acre of land we have lots of room for your dogs to run and play or just lounge on the grass. My only requirement for the dogs I watch is that they are friendly to other dogs. If you know your dog can show aggressive behavior towards other dogs please look for a different sitter. I sit for many dogs at a time and need to ensure that all my dogs have a safe and fun experience. Please note that I need at least a two weeks notice before any new dog boarding in order to have time to set up a meet and greet. I will not take dogs without a meet and greet first, to see how they get along with other dogs. I am sorry for all pit bull owners but I do not accept Pit bulls. Pickup and drop off hours are between 6:30 am- 8 pm.

DOGGIE DAY CARE: I offer daycare services to customers in or very close to the Mirrormont area, Mon-Wed. If you live further away but want day care, I recommend you find a sitter very close to work or home so that you won't need to add more time to your commute.

About this sitter:

I'm a fun loving middle aged stay at home dad who loves to take care of dogs!

Why I love dog sitting

I have been a dog lover all my life, and have always had a dog by my side from the time I was a toddler to now being a middle aged man. Dogs really are a mans best friend. I have loved and truly miss all the dogs I have had in my life.

About my yard

Yes, we have a fully fenced in backyard of about a half an acre. It's mostly flat with plenty of dirt and grassy areas to run around on, my dog loves it.

Hi and welcome! My name is Nubia, My Husband and I have been caring for dogs for over 15 years, we love all breeds, sizes and temperaments, so long as they can hang out with our two resident pups, Swagger and Zeus. Swagger is a 6 year old English Bull Terrier and Zeus is a 8 month old Bull Terrier as well.! Our home has a pawtastic backyard that is perfect for your pups to lounge in while you are on vacation.

** Pick ups and drop off times are flexible discussed ahead of time.

Boarding : Pick ups after 11am there will be a daycare charge of 25 dollars.

Daycare: 6am- 5pm M-F. Later drop off/pick ups available upon request with extra charge.

Sat-Sun daycare available 9am-9pm. Later drop off/pick ups available upon request with extra charge.

I am a full time dog care professional available for training, boarding, drop-ins, walks, and day care. I consider myself first and foremost a dog trainer, so during any of our interactions, you can be sure your companion will get lots of personalized attention and love, and that they will learn something, too!

I'm a member of The Association of Professional Dog Trainers, and I am simulation engineer and data scientist with about 10 years of experience. I'm currently working on a research project that hopes to use machine learning to improve dog training. In many cases, when we think of training we think of turning a bad dog into a good one. I specialize in making good dogs great by using a quantitative framework and scientifically backed methods with the goal of creating improved canine citizens.

My goal is to be a knowledgeable trainer for common behavioral issues. We will work to improve the reliability of basic commands such as come and stay, practice their ability to be calm while on leash, and to have good manners around people and other dogs. If you're interested, I hope to give you more confidence in having your companion off leash and under voice control in a variety of situations. And of course, you'll get daily photos and updates on how much fun they're having.

You and your pet can still enjoy life while you are away! Give your dog a comfortable and safe environment while you can't be with them and enjoy your time while you miss them.

Individualized care for your dog's needs and interests! West Seattle retreat with a yard and dog friendly environment. I want to make your dogs smile as much as I can while you are away.

About this sitter:

Hi I'm Matt B. As someone that loves to travel, I understand the mixed feelings when it comes to leaving your dog behind. I've been taking care of dogs my whole life and know how to make them feel comfortable when they're missing their owners. Lots of exercise, positive reinforcement and lots of places to lay around. I can take care of all kinds of dogs and their different conditions. And while you're away I'll send you plenty of photos of your best buddy!

Why I love dog sitting

I was born a dog lover. You couldn't stop me from petting or playing with any dog in sight! Life without dogs would be so different.

Meet my pets

I have a gentle giant named Thurston.

He loves all dogs big and small and always finds a way to be friends no matter their personality or disability.

Thurston is a 1 year old Irish Wolfhound Goofball.

About my yard

I have a fenced yard that is strong but temporary while I build my final fence.

I am always out there with the dogs and have had Great Danes and escape artists with no problems. It's a fun yard and will be getting better.

My experience administering medication

I can administer most medications and watch your injured dogs to.

Our family lives in West Seattle and includes John, Erica, Kiddos 11 & 14, Clancy (a 11 year old 50 pound Springer Spaniel/Red Heeler mix), Noodle Love Nugget (2 year old Chihuahua), Oreo (6 month old kitty) and our latest addition 14-year-old Jake the quarter horse who lives offsite. (Our sweet kitty Bella Baby Kitty crossed the Rainbow Bridge in 2017 and we adopted Noodle in her name.) We are extremely active and live and play hard. Clancy, Noodle, Oreo and (RIP Bella) are rescue animals who have made a wonderful addition to our family. Jake is a sweet boy who loves to see the girls when we visit, ride him and give him treats. Clancy enjoys playing with friends in our private fenced in dog park, patrolling our fenced in front yard, chase, wrestling/keep away with friends and playing with his toys and snuggling. Oreo is being raised as a dog. He is kennel trained and LOVES to wrestle and play with his big brother Noodle. Clancy, Noodle and Oreo love to play chase and tag up and down the hallway. Noodle is very eager to make new friends but due to his dainty 5.2 pound size we are cautious with introductions. (Both Oreo and Noodle are available to play with suitable sized visitors, otherwise they are kept separately for their safety.)

John and I grew up with pets of all varieties and our family would not feel complete without all of the joy that they add. John and I would welcome a visiting canine family member who can play well with our existing family members. However, we understand that some pets would like to stay in their own homes but get visits and playtime. We are very flexible and could accommodate a variety of arrangements.

In addition, we can provide drop ins for any type of pet siblings who are more comfortable staying at home, as well as their canine brothers and sisters. Although I have selected a preference for altered dogs, I understand that depending on age they may not of been altered yet. If your pet falls into this category, please let me I know so that I can determine whether we could proceed with a stay. I also offer boarding discounts for repeat boarding customers, discounts for siblings and our prices are negotiable depending on your situation. If this sounds like an ideal fit for you, please do not hesitate to contact us. :)

About Erica:

I have always been an avid animal lover. I grew up with Dachshunds, kitties, a goat, fish, mini turtles to name a few. I love them all!!! :) In addition, I was an equestrian throughout middle school and high school and was responsible for the care of several horses. John and I also have a ten year old daughter Miranda, who has been raised to love and respect her animal siblings as well as to participate in their care. The children and I are currently pursuing our mutual love of horses by taking riding lessons together. (They are taking Western and I am taking English lessons.)

Why I love dog sitting

I have had canine family members all of my life. Before we adopted Clancy, I had Dachshund babies, a Flat Coated Retriever and Kitties. I love how all fur babies constantly express their joy of life with their goofy individual personalities.

Meet my pets

Clancy (a 11 year old 50 pound Springer Spaniel/Red Heeler mix)

Noodle Love Nugget (a 2 year old 5.2 pound Chihuahua)

Oreo (6 month Kitten)

Jake (14 year old Quarter Horse who lives off-site)

About my yard

We have a triple gated private dog park, and a fenced in front yard. Clancy and friends enjoy frequent squirrel patrols, and galloping rounds of chase and keep away. I separate dogs by energy levels and by temperament. Some want to run all day and others want to lay in the sun. I assess the fit upon arrival and place them with friends who are best suited. Our goal is that all visitors are treated like family and have an amazing visit. :)

My experience administering medication

Sure, no problem since I have had to do it with my own pets. I have experience giving oral, topical and injected medicines.

Please read my ENTIRE profile by clicking, "Read More" below:

My goal is to create a loving/fun vacation for your best friend as he/she becomes part of our family. All you do is pack enough food for their visit with us - plus medications, supplements and a regular leash. We do the rest; providing TLC, toys, fun outings, belly or butt scratches and companionship. If they are totally attached to their bed, bring that too, otherwise we have very comfy dog beds.

My availability calendar is above, in the left column. My price reflects a 24-hour period. If drop off/pick up times are not the same, there may be a price adjustment. A meet 'n greet is REQUIRED for each dog and every guest MUST be well-mannered and socialized. High strung, high energy, hyper-active dogs or excessive barkers will not be a good fit here since it's too stressful for the other dogs AND humans when a dog isn't trained, misbehaves or is too loud or rowdy. Vaccinations are required. I will NOT take care of contagious dogs.

Dave, my husband, and I live in a ranch-style home in Tamara Hills, located on the back side of Somerset. We're close to the 405/I-90 interchange and 20 minutes away from the airport.

We especially enjoy watching dogs with a mellow/calm demeanor that are between 25 and 60 pounds. We're open to larger sizes as long as they are; potty trained, well behaved (have GREAT recall, and know sit, stay and HEEL), are not big barkers or rough when playing. Your dog will be a guest in OUR home and neighborhood and their behavior affects everyone; dogs and humans alike.

We believe in quality over quantity, so there usually aren't more than three guests at a time, to ensure that everyone gets the attention they deserve. Once in awhile, there can be 'spillover' where we have an extra dog or two for 24-48 hours as vacations can overlap.

Why I love dog sitting:

I've been an animal lover forever and have enjoyed taking care of dogs all my adult life. Growing up, my family had cats, dogs, birds and rabbits. As an adult, I have trained my own dogs who each turned out to be spectacular canine citizens, if I do say so myself. :)

Always drawn to animals, I supervised the front desk at a multi-doctor veterinarian hospital for several years after moving to the PNW.

About our Pets:

We share our lives with, Penny, a sweet, sensitive, 10 1/2 year old, Border Collie/Husky mix who looks like a honey-colored fox and Skoshi, an adorable, red-headed, tri-colored, 9 1/2 month old corgi.

About our yard:

Our yard is 'fenced' with both iron railing and a 3-4', plastic coated wire and metal fencing, so it is only deterrent-type fencing.

My experience administering medication:

I'm fine giving pills.

I really love dogs. I get a lot of joy from playing and interacting with them. Just being with them puts a smile on my face. I'm a very active person so i'm ready to get out there and give your dog a good work out. But i am also patient and able to keep things under control. I have dog sat for numerous friends and had a few pups growing up. Im from Seattle originally so i know the city really well and can navigate it no problem. I have a Honda element so its great for dogs of all sizes and the plastic floors are really dog friendly, i don't have to worry about getting it dirty at all. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible.
