Doggy Day Care in Tumwater

“Michael was so helpful and even spent extra time with us to teach us some training for my puppy. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog there for the day. Thank you, Michael!”

“Sara was incredible with my 4-month old puppy! Recieved lots of photos of him frolicking with the other dogs. I plan to make this a regular thing for my sweet boy.”

About: Your pet deserves the best with dedication, training and companionship. I have worked with the SanTan Animal rescue, the Little Traverse Bay Humane society and friends and family over the years; walking training and helping with adoptions and am using my experience and education to give the best to your pet. I'm a modified traditional and clicker trainer. I will be working with your pet as well as you if you're interested in learning my methods. I strive to go the extra mile every visit with you and your pet. During my training I will leave my tips and tricks for you. I'm the trainer and instructor you've been looking for because of the burning passion I have to impact the dog owning community. Every dog deserves to have full attention. Basic obedience is carefully implemented with every single interaction with every single dog. I have 3 dog myself. 2 service dogs and 1 puppy. I train every dog out of natural behaviors of my own. I respect every dog and every owner and their needs. I spend my days studying and writing training programs to fine tune my own approach in this ever growing world of man's best friend and the relationship with their owners. I'm open to taking care of many varieties of animals in the case you have more. I grew up on a farm for a large portion of my life and have always been amazed by the loving relationship with not only dog and human, but with any animal, big or small. Every visit is catered to training and maintaining good manners. My ultimate goal is to bring skills equivalent to a "Good Citizen" level of training even if we don't get much time I work to set steady foundations for success. Walks will not just be a easy breezy pull me around or softly walk through the neighborhood. We work on getting the dog tired and stimulated for maximum happiness of your pet. Dogs love figuring out challenges that help their comprehension of training grow and enhance the relationship between pet and handler. Seeing your dog improve on skills bring my heart so much joy sometimes I could just scream with excitement. Drop ins work pretty much the same, walking and doing house exercises to stimulate their brain and exhaust their energy in productive ways. I'll always leave tips tricks and techniques I may have used. In my home I train all day every day as I do my own dogs. Keeping their gears turning and growing their trust in me is highest of priority. My home is sectioned off into 3 parts in the case some dogs may not get along and need to be desensitized. There are 2 trainers in the home to assist with any training desensitization or other special needs your pet may have. And to take training to a comfortable but challenging level to expand that training. I always keep reflective gear and dog first aid kits on me while working with your pet. SAFETY FIRST! If you have more questions let me know. I hope to see you booking with me in your future 🩷

“Tonya was such a great help caring for our pup during doggie daycare! We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to care for their pup.”

“Jennifer was great with our energetic little pup. Lola was able to roam free inside and out. She played with another puppy and had a wide array of toys to choose from. We will definitely use Jennifer's services again.”

“Our pups have been staying with Stephen and Sonia for daycare and overnights now for four years. They LOVE their time there. At their exit the dogs start yipping out of excitement!”

“Desiree was amazing! She took Buckey on short notice, and too care of Buckey as if he was her own. Buckey had a blast at her house. Very professional. Lots of pictures! Great communication. Will for sure use Desiree in the future! Thanks again!”

“This little family gave an amazing amount of care and love to my very much energetic pup. By the third day my pup would whine in excitement at drop off. As someone that’s overly affectionate towards there pup I was not in the least worried he was getting the best care! Bonus, was all the pictures and videos I received of my pup while being cared for I most definitely will be rebooking and making it my regular care for my pup!”

“I am blown away. The care that Linda gave Daisy today was amazing. Linda is such a warm and caring soul, kindness just flows from her! Daisy (and I) could feel it. We have been struggling with separation anxiety with our girl and Linda said she did perfectly fine (WOW)! Daisy wasn’t upset when I picked her up and she seemed at ease. Linda was caring, sent photos and updated me during the time Daisy was in her care. I am over the moon! Thank you, Linda!”

“No complaints here ! Chopper has such a good time whether boarding overnight or for a play date with his new friend! Carolyn and her husband are great with every dog !”

“Great experience leaving our puppy here! Plenty of photos were sent to us showing how much fun he was having and that he was being treated well, especially playing with her minpin and the other puppy being watched. Will definitely consider again! Thank you.”

“Sue took care of my kitty when I had to take him out of the house for the day. She was such a blessing and he enjoyed spending time with her while I was away! Thank you, Sue!”

“Rachel was so accommodating for our boys. Took them on a much needed walk and they slept like babies that night at home. It was our first time but she made us feel comfortable with photos and responded to texts in a timely manner. I am very grateful and will use her again!!”

“OMG Christina and her family were amazing. I can’t say enough. Koach had an awesome time in their home and we will continue to see them for when I’m out of town. Daily updates and pics were the cherry on top of all the love they gave Koach. I’m glad we’ve gained an extension to our family.”

“Nadia did a fantastic job watching my two puppies while I was away on vacation. She ensured they had regular walks and meals and sent me photos for the entire booking. I’m extremely satisfied with her services and her kindness to my puppies.”

“Angela did a great job watching Clark! I appreciated her updates on him throughout the day. He seemed like he’d had a good time when I picked him up.”

“Alison was so great for doggy daycare! Sent so many pictures, asked all the right questions, and even worked on certain training commands with Gus. Highly recommend her services, she’s very trustworthy and professional!”

“Kailyn is amazing! She watched my dog twice a week regularly and I just recently left him with her for a week while I was traveling. When my flight home got cancelled, she went above and beyond to keep my dog two extra days and into the holiday weekend. My dog has life-long health issues and takes a lot of care to keep him healthy. I don’t have to worry about my dog at all with Kaitlyn because I know she takes great care of him. Plus, her own dogs are kind and friendly to my dog. They are besties! Kailyn is one-of-kind!”

“Lauren is a lover of animals (and they love her!). She is responsible, caring, intelligent & dedicated to her assignments. Her background of being a vet tech brings an understanding of a pet’s needs to a higher level. She’s ready to walk your dog(s) or care for your cat.”

“Thankful for the last minute of care that Jadine provided. Her pups are a handful but she knew how best to take care of my little one. Do recommend.”
