My golden had to go to the Er because he cut waaay to close under my furry baby's ears and he developed a really bad infection- the owner never even bothered to pay the bill! My baby was in the guy's care-- any dog groomers should flip the bill for them being dumb and not paying attention to what they were doing!

I found Tish using the reviews on Yelp and now am ready to add my own 5-star because she is…read moreawesome. Tish came out to my house for a prescreening to get the key and meet my two cats and is obviously an animal lover. Even the scaredy one was induced to come out and say hi which is unusual for her. Since then she has always been available been when needed though I do try to give her plenty of warning. Her rates are better than average when compared to other sitting services in the area. But most importantly, I got exactly the same amount of whining from my two cats as I did when a friend would come out and feed them. From the very first the cats suffered zero trauma or angst from Tish as a sitter, and cat owners know how temperamental their animals can be. From the first time she sat, they accepted her as an acceptable substitute for feeding and attention. Tish is great. I highly recommend her.

Brian and his crew are reliable, reasonably priced, and have nothing but the best interests at heart for my critters. I have 2 American Pitbull Terrier mixes and a German Shepherd Labrador mix and they are all eclectic in personality to say the least. They have gotten daily walks or play time and every day Brian leaves a note on how their time went. I've used Puppy Dreams for both daytime walks as well as long-term sitting. I've had many past experiences with dog walkers and sitters. Anyone looking for trustworthy care for their pets should not hesitate to reach out to them.

I will certainly use their service again in the future!

Highly recommended!…read more They are always very flexible, personable, and helpful with taking care of my cat. They are tech savvy with online scheduling options and saved profiles for your pets. Sarah (owner) will also reach out to the pet owners personally to ensure everything is up to satisfaction. I get text updates on how my cat is doing, and I can tell my cat is much happier after vacations since I've been using Sarah's Pet Care. They are also great in following detailed instructions too, if needed for your home and pet care (i.e. trash disposal, bringing in mail, door locks, etc). I've used their services for about 5 times over the past year, and will continue to do so!

I will not hesitate to bring Lucy to Sarah's pet care again. Piece of mind is worth so much more than the money I paid Sarah to care for my beloved pet.

He knows exactly where we're going the moment we turn down the street and absolutely sprints inside with excitement. He feels safe, confident, and genuinely loved, and the team has been incredible at helping him find the perfect mix of puppy friends that match his energy and personality. Ollie has been to both Rocket Dog locations, but he's a frequent flyer at the SLU location, where the team knows him so well. The facilities are always clean, safe, and thoughtfully run. The staff take exceptional care of every dog and communicate clearly and consistently, which gives us so much peace of mind. You can tell they pay attention... not just to the group, but to each individual pup. We've tried many other doggy daycares in the area and across Seattle, and Rocket Dog truly checks every single box. It's our go-to not only for daycare, but for overnight boarding as well. We trust Holly and her team completely and highly recommend Rocket Dog to any dog parent looking for reliable, loving daycare and boarding services.
