We are super happy to find Don and his family. Our girl had an amazing couple nights with them, and honestly came back a better behaved dog. Don is very devoted to the wellbeing of dogs in general and gave us peace of mind as we were away. We will absolutely use his boarding services as well as training services in the future.

SO glad Don moved to Sequim! He was wonderful with our dog and is just a fun and caring person. We liked him right off the bat and so did Eddy. We had a looong day away from town and Don walked Eddy twice. Got home and after her usual happy to see us greeting she just laid down for a nap! A tired dog is a happy dog! I am thrilled to have another trusted person to call on when I need help.

Always a pleasure to have Don come by. He is great with Brodie, and now with the new pup Riley. Best behaved puppy I have ever had thanks to Don!

Information Don S. would like to know about your pet

How they get along with others. Do they have all of their shots. Do they try to escape on a regular basis. Will they come when called. Medications. Food allergies. Feeding Times. Are they house broken. If not do you use a crate or will you allow me to help crate train them for you?

A typical day

We live on 5 acres that happens to be near a river so we have options but mostly we stay here at home where there is no traffic to speak of. We also have 2000 sf downstairs which is pretty much dog proofed in case of inclement weather they still can play. In my free time I train dogs and will train yours when staying overnight some of the basic safety commands as well as work with socialization skills.
