It was our pleasure to have found and met with Belinda at African Sky Kennel. We first appreciated the clear rules and guidelines as well as the pre-screening procedures; this was an indication to us that our pet would likely be in the company of other well-behaved pets who also had to pass this initial screening. Her communication during this, and every manner of business thereafter, was outstanding. We appreciated her patience with us, for we were "newbies" in the world of kennels. During our first visit for the pre-screening visit, her tour of the facility was excellent. We noted that it was clean, very smartly constructed, and well maintained. Access to the facility was convenient, and instructions on what supplies and preparations we needed to make were very clear. This initial visit was not only an opportunity to assess our dog's behaviors at the facility, but it was a reassuring experience for us as well; we saw that Belinda was a genuinely caring person who had a loving attitude tempered with good business sense. Meeting with her left us no doubt that she greatly cared for our dog's well-being, and her confidence in caring for pets truly shined. We also appreciated that the facility was small and intimate...more like a doggy sleepover rather than getting tossed into an animal cage. As we went on our out-of-state trip, we had zero doubts that our dog was well cared for. The daily notifications and photos from Belinda were fun to see, and our confidence in African Sky certainly made our trip much more enjoyable. We are greatly looking forward to having our pet stay with Belinda in the future. read more

I have been taking my dogs to African Sky Kennel for about a year. I have boarded them, and I also have my little bichon-mix dog groomed by Belinda. Belinda takes very good care of my dogs and takes good care of me, too! Sometimes it is hard to leave your little pooch for an extended stay, and Belinda is always very willing to send videos and photos to assure me that my dogs are doing well. Here is one way I know that things are good here...my dogs run right into the kennel when they arrive. They feel very at home. I am writing this, reflecting on the entire past year, when I had two dogs. Our Australian shepherd dog recently passed and I am now taking only our little gal. Belinda was so attentive to Austin's needs this past year. She was very old and deaf, and was sometimes disoriented. Belinda handled all of that in a very caring and professional manner. Now that our little dog is there alone, Belinda is very sensitive to her feelings of loneliness. The grooming is done with lots of care. I love how fluffy, clean and fresh Biscuit is when she gets her bath. I recommend African Sky. read more

Found Belinda and ASK online, and liked what we saw; We'd previously only boarded our Charlie at local Greywolf Vet in Sequim, but since they no longer do boarding we needed to find another venue. We had our "walk through" visit and were immediately impressed by how Belinda made Charlie welcome and was completely calm in dealing with the other dogs who were already there. When we dropped Charlie off for his daytime and overnight stay he was eager to go. When we came to pick him up Belinda was honest with us that he'd had night-time anxiety; it was clear that she did her best to reassure him throughout the night. Under the circumstances, she was extremely accomodating, especially considering that we didn't anticipate him being anxious. Otherwise it was a very positive experience for our boy: Belinda being very loving and encouraging Charlie, and him enjoying the other dogs. We look forward to using African Sky Kennel again, now that Charlie knows that we're coming back! read more

I've known Belinda forever and she has always had dogs as her best friends. She's not only loving and caring of all animals but she's professional too. She has experience with practically every breed there is and has owned a variety of dogs herself over the years. Belinda has experience working at the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and so she takes the responsibility of caring for your dog seriously. African Sky Kennels will look after your dog with the greatest care so you can put your mind at ease. read more

Belinda is genuinely caring! And her kennel is immaculate and unbelievably secure. My Joey was right at home, played with, and never left alone. Belinda sent pictures, emails and texts reassuring me of his comfort. I felt like she treated my Corgi like he was her very own pet. She is very organized and makes sure that her visiting pets are safe, warm, loved and happy. Her "home away from home" is my "go to" from here on! I was amazed with my boy's care. Superior in all ways. read more

Raffi had a great time and we really appreciate that Belinda played with Raffi and kept him stimulated and happy! read more
