Warm & Dog-Loving Home in Kirkland

[Both ENGLISH & JAPANESE msg are OK! *日本語でもOKです*] I've been a dog owner for over 15 years. I am a stay-at-home mom and be able to care from young to senior. My family consists of my husband, a preteen son, and an 5-year-old 25 pounds mellow Cockapoo that loves other dogs. He is the perfect playmate! He is our second dog that we adopted after we took care of our first dog until the end of his life. I will send you a daily photo & report during your dog stay. Please contact me in Japanese, if you wish. (日本語でもメッセージのやりとりできますので、お気軽にご連絡下さい)

Masumi and family took great care of my little anxious doodle in a small group of similar dogs.

Masumi is by far the most reliable and attentive sitter we've ever had! I truly don't think there's anyone who could take better care of any dogs! She paid close attention to every detail of my dog's care. She even adjusted her collar and switched her leash to ensure his safety, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail were exceptional. My dog is a picky eater, so preparing her meals with various toppings can be a bit of a hassle, but she happily accommodated all of his needs. My dog also sometimes vomit, so I was worried about leaving her with someone new, but she did wonderfully under her care. Her entire family showered her with love and affection, and it was clear that she enjoyed spending so much time with them and playing with Apple. It truly felt like a loving home rather than just a boarding stay. It was a wonderful boarding experience from start to finish. I've already booked our next stay because I know I can leave my dog with Masumi with complete confidence and peace of mind!

Masumi is always very communicative and attentive, Pepper had an incident and she managed it as if Pepper was part of her family. I wouldn't trust my pet anyone outside my family more than Masumi.

Masumi and family took really good care of Boba! They shared detailed updates daily about how well he was eating and doing with them. Boba came back home really neat and tidy - Masumi brushed and cleaned him regularly. We would love to leave Boba again here!

Safety, trust & environment

■I am good at taking care of poodle mixes! I do brushing to prevent from matting and wipe paws after walk. Shampooing is also available on request for $15. ■We do not wear shoes in the house, so we keep our house clean and safe. ■I have a fully-fenced backyard where dogs can safely hang out, but I never leave dogs in the yard unsupervised. ■When I need to go out to run errands, my husband is at home instead, so dogs are rarely left alone.

Pets

A typical day

I like to go for a walk with your dog and mine around the neighborhood. We also have parks with trails & a creek near our house to go exploring. Inside the house, I stimulate your dog by fetching balls. Also, dogs can relax and nap on the sofa or on our community dog bed.

◇I require to do meet and greet before booking with new clients. Please let me know what date/time works for you. ◇Please let me know your dog's character, daily schedule, and how your dog behaves with other dogs. Also, if your dog needs special care, like regular medications, please let me know. I also like to know where your pooch usually sleeps at night, what kind of food he/she eats, and if your pooch is a good eater or not.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
