    I have a Shepsky. Being half shepherd and half husky, she needed to be around other dogs to socialize. I chose Doggy Haven. Two years later, my dog still goes once a week to see her friends, she absolutely loves it. I have also used Doggy Haven for boarding and grooming. The staff is always amiable, and you can tell their love for animals is a passion within. Day care, grooming, or boarding, Doggy Haven is our place of choice.

    I'd avoid this place for grooming at all cost. My golden doodle was groomed by Debbie and came back with deep cuts that required an emergency trip to the vet. The groomer didn't even inform when we picked him up and we only noticed this once we got back home. Please don't waste your time and $$.

    We have a shitzu bischon mix who is turning 14 this year... we have had some okay but not great experiences at other grooming facilities in the past. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I cannot give this place and Debbie more of a great review.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This has completely taken the anxiety away from the dreaded grooming appointment task.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We are happy with the result and Leo looks so handsome. We will be returning

    We were so anxious about leaving our nervous rescue pup anywhere while we went on a week long vacation. The folks at Doggy Haven were so sweet to this nervous dog parent. I also appreciate that the dogs get lots of supervised play time. Our dog is not a dog that would do well in a "free range" environment so the supervision gave us peace of mind. The facilities are comfortable and feel more like a resort than doggie jail like some of the other facilities we toured. There are lots of extras to pamper your pet as well. The daily report cards with photos allowed us to enjoy our vacation and still check in on our pup. We will bring our buddy back.

    Hunter goes weekly and loves seeing all his people and dog friends! Daycare helps him socialize and also lets him release his energy! We love DoggyHaven. Mary is very organized and the dogs all seem so happy!

    Daisy!

    My dog Daisy has been going there since she's been a puppy. She doesn't do the daycare anymore but we still rely on these guys for all our boarding and grooming needs. Consistent and reliable and they are always kind to Daisy and us.

    Sadie, first day, in her forever home.

    Our dogs stayed there and got a severe case of kennel cough. We were still charged the full boarding fee with no apologies.

    Steve and his team of trainers at Nitro K9 are the real deal. Both our young dogs have benefited…read morefrom Nitro's level 1 and 2 classes, and so it's very easy to recommend Nitro if you're looking for a trainer. It is worth acknowledging that Nitro makes use of prong and e-collars in their training method, and if you have concerns about these tools, I am happy to report there's nothing to be concerned about. I have witnessed my dog gaze up lovingly and with attention at Steve while under his guidance on a prong collar; you could feel the genuine connection between trainer and dog. This kind of experience was enough for me to put any concerns I had aside and welcome the training. It's also worth noting that Steve himself can be a bit of a personality, unafraid to speak his mind and get into a range of discussion topics. Underneath the personality is a genuine human, who wants nothing more than for dogs to receive the training that will most help them get along inside the home and the world. Thanks, Steve and Nitro K9 for your help with our dogs!

    After suddenly losing one of our dogs in October 2025, our 10 yo Doberman was so heartbroken. He…read morebecame critically ill, resulting in over $5,000 in emergency vet bills and little improvement. We swore to no more dogs but then we saw Mia, a 9-month-old, Doberman puppy found on the street in LA by animal control. Her leg was degloved, necrotic and filled with maggots. She was intercepted by a rehab, received amputation and much needed medical attention. We followed her story for a couple months, hoping she would find a home, but she didn't. Somehow, we caved, did the unthinkable and flew to Los Angeles, scooping her up and driving her back to Washington in a rental car mid-winter. She was terrified, ferrell and full of dominant "spicy" energy so we booked an appointment with one of the top positive-treat-based trainers with reactive-dog expertise in the state, to help us introduce our dogs upon return and it was a disaster. Our senior exploded in pure terror, barking and lunging. She tossed treats; they ignored her. Twenty minutes in she shrugged, said she had "no magic wand," sent us home and refunded half our session. 2 days later she emailed us suggesting we rehome Mia to a foster "for our safety" which felt like a slap in the face. The very next day we thoroughly researched every trainer in Washington, and Nitro K-9 stood head and shoulders above the rest. I emailed Steve and he called back within minutes with genuine understanding, zero judgment, got us in within days and made our 2-hour commute in separate cars well worth it. In the first ten minutes Steve had both dogs calmly obeying, walking together on leash, and listening! He instantly saw what the other trainer missed: our senior was fear-reactive, meaning he was scared. Steve and North have taught us clear communication and connection with our dogs. They've taught us how to properly command quick correction and full attention using high-quality prong collars, like a mother dog's natural nips. No pain, no fear, no endless treats or bribes, just genuine praise, affection, and connection, the way real bonds and parenting work. He showed us how to step into calm leadership so our dogs could relax, trust, and stop carrying the burden themselves. He stayed by our side through every panicked text, every "what now?" and our dog's transformation is nothing short of miraculous. Mia is happy, confident and loves her big brother now. Our senior knows his role and is playing with her like a puppy again. They love each other and actually enjoy being together! If you're a reactive, rescue, fearful or high-drive dog parent, have been let down by "treat-motivated training" and have avoided prong collars because of the myths, you have been misinformed like we were. Don't give up, stop scrolling and call Nitro, I promise you won't regret it! IWe are forever grateful!
