After our local training place closed we were looking for other options and committed to positive reinforcement training. Unfortunately a lot of trainers use aversives, especially with large strong dogs. We were so excited to find Julia, and after our meet & greet we were confident she was a good choice. Julia did a 2 week board & train with our dog while we were traveling, mainly focusing on leash skills and practicing calm behavior around exciting things. We noticed an immediate improvement, but have also been continuing to work on the training at home after our follow up. I'm happy to report that we are continuing to see improvement using Julia's methods.

I've done daycare and boarding here with them and my dog was happy and healthy both times! The…read morereason I can't give 5 stars and why I probably won't be returning are just inconveniences on my end: Their meet and greet will expire in 6 months if you do not use their services for that long, and you must repay the fee of $30. The $30 does not get you a free day of daycare like many other facilities. So if you board infrequently (like me) you have to repeat the process everytime. I also think some wording on the website needs to be changed. On the FAQ for boarding, it reads to bring food in a "a re-sealable bag as kibble oxidizes quickly which results in substantial nutrient loss." Most places want the food in something re-seable for the reason stated in the quote, however this isn't the reason I was told at drop off; their reason is due to convenience for the caretakers. What they mean to say is food MUST be *pre-measured* *per meal* and *individually* bagged in ziploc bags otherwise there's a fee. This was not told to me until I dropped off my dog with her sealed food container and measured food cup. They then said it would be a $15 bagging fee. I did receive a text before my dog boarded that I can go over the email about boarding reminders however I never got any emails, my confirmations were done through text with an email receipt sent at the end of her stay. No big deal, I didn't think much of it because I got confirmation/reminder texts of her stay and I had read the website/FAQs multiple times to make sure I did not miss anything. I don't even own ziploc bags because I think it's wasteful and I don't like surprise fees because this information should've been readily available on the website (even if that information was in that missing email). I was about to run down the street and grab a $1 box because my dog was only staying 3 nights, but a different worker than the one checking me in overheard and helped me out, so that was appreciated!

He was not only safe, bu t HAPPY there! They responded to my first check-in text within minutes, with a photo that warmed my heart. They continued to communicate (unsolicited) during his stay. When I picked him up, he had his exit bath, nails clipped, and a sweater they threw in because "he might get a chill out there because he's still damp." Over and above! I love this business model and the dedication of the women who own the business and employ others who obviously love the dogs. HIghest recommendation!

She had basic manners when I brought her there, which I did for socialization and to give myself a break from a demanding still puppy of about 2.5 years old. In the time she has been there she has come a long way. She loves her caretakers, and has several favorite playmates. She has calmed down significantly. They definitely know how to handle larger stubborn dogs without breaking their spirit. My dog is always excited when we drive there. As soon as the car turns onto South Tacoma Way she perks up and start whining and wiggling her bottom. If my dog was unhappy there I am sure that her reaction would be quite different. I hope that she can go there for many more years.

I used Nancy Curlette to petsit my 2 kitties for about 7 years when I lived in University Place…read more She is wonderful! Both kitties required medications and copius amounts of love and attention, daily brushings were mandatory (per the kitties). Nancy was always extremely diligent, trustworthy, reliable and caring. She would give me advice on caring for them and whether she noticed any changes in their habits that might indicate potential problems - very much appreciated. Plus, she kept an eye on my house and made sure my plants were watered & mail picked up. I always returned to a house that was in order and well-fed kitties. I would recommend Nancy to anyone looking for a petsitter - she's the best there is!
