I'm a huge fan of Martha's Garden. I need to put a lot of trust into a place that I'm going to drop my puppy off at away from me for a whole day. I can tell that Shannon and her staff truly care about these puppies. They are also transparent in showing what's going on with the dogs at any time of the day by providing a livestream for you to take a look. I sometimes share the link with my family and friends and they get a kick out of seeing what my dog is up to during the day. Martha's Garden's facility is not only really cute but it's also really clean and open. The dogs really seem to enjoy the space! I feel good about supporting a small business as well by dropping my pup at Martha's Garden! Highly recommend.

I look forward to to the report card every time. So sweet!

Love the daycare. My dog seems to really enjoy it, she is always eager to go in, and starts yipping in the car when she knows we're getting close. Love to watch the twitch stream, and see photos and the report cards! The indoor dog park/bar time is great too! I appreciate the selection and loved seeing how enthusiastic my dog is to be there.

Martha's Garden is the best! My Shiba Inu can be difficult, and used to be really shy with other dogs and withdrawn. After two months with Shannon and Cecily and the rest of the team, she's become a whole new dog -- on walks she goes up to strange dogs now, she lets others sniff her butt, and she even pulls to go to the dog park (and tries to go to Martha's and paws at the door to be let in). I credit Martha's Garden with all of that. They are all super nice people, and they care a lot about all of the dogs. They know each dog by name, and spend time engaging them in activities individually, instead of just having a big empty room and calling it a day. The space is really clean, and they add a bunch of interesting things like "scent paths" to keep the dogs interested. They are careful about separating problem dogs, and they take the time to write really nice report cards, with photos of your dog and assessments of his/her behavior that day. On a few occasions I've had scheduling issues and they've always been really understanding and kind about it. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Rocket Dog is the best. I've trusted RD for more than 12 years with my precious pups. They have a…read moregreat human to dog ratio, are super attentive, and really care about my dogs. One of my pups is medically fragile and they are quick to flag any changes and call if something seems off. I've tried other places and haven't found any nearly as good as RD. Holly, the owner, and her team genuinely care about the dogs they're entrusted with and the owner community they've created. I highly recommend RD.

They…read moreclearly love what they do, and it shows in every interaction, every update, and most importantly, in how happy the dogs are. Ollie is the happiest puppy when he's there. 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.

That is uncommon, 1st class service! Both Sophie and Ashley were pleasant and acknowledged my dog and I asking how could they help. My dogs have received training and grooming at competitive prices. Sara is a gem! On short notice, I was fortunate to have Cooper's nails cut. He doesn't get nervous anymore. Sara has a way with him. I'm grateful to everyone there because they genuinely love dogs and are devoted to caring for our beloved pets. Kudos.

I knew Hudson was going to be a challenge, but I didn't know just what form that would take. We bonded very quickly but Hudson just wasn't "getting it" -- he'd incessantly pull on the leash, freak out seeing other dogs out on walks, and I absolutely could not leave him home alone if I wanted to come home to plants still alive in the window. His issues were intense dog reactivity and extreme separation anxiety. He'd apparently been abused and, with the scars on his back legs, perhaps even attacked by other dogs in the past. He'd had a rough go of it, but I soon learned that his heart was sweet & benevolent, and that he absolutely did not deserve what he'd been through. He deserved to be safe & happy. Having worked with Judi out at Great Dog many years prior, my good, old friend Andy recommended her to me, and off we went. Judi could tell from watching Hudson and I approach that very first day that we needed help -- we were "all over the road" as it were -- but she fully committed to helping us. Judi is a special person. She most definitely "gets it" and can intuit what's really going on -- with dogs especially, but also with their *people*. We did many training exercises directly with Hudson, but I soon realized that *I* was the one who really needed the training. We started seeing Judi -- and often her amazing partners Ethan and Abbie -- every Saturday morning over many weeks. It didn't take long for Hudson to get really excited when we'd start our weekly drive up to Northgate, and he always enjoyed going (and always got lots of treats!). We would do many different training exercises with Hudson but we'd also have "classroom time", where we'd discuss the Why and the How. The results of these conversations would often surprise me later with their impact on Hudson's behavior, and how they were slowly changing him, and me, over time. We were making progress. Judi has strong opinions about dogs going back over twenty years, but she can back each and every one of those up with reason and logic. I always greatly admired her ability to communicate with dogs as well as people, and to explain, and I soon saw the wisdom of whatever she was trying to tell me. Judi is gentle and focused and knows what works, but perhaps more importantly, she knows what *doesn't*. Judi and everyone else I met out at Great Dog was naturally empathetic, competent, loved dogs, and really wanted to help. The *energy* at Great Dog is great for dogs, and for people. Good things happen there. Judi and Abbie and Ethan each helped and taught us, and their lessons and guidance continue to improve Hudson's and my life each & every day. For any dog owner who really wants to learn, and listen, and make the life of their dog as great as it can be, then Great Dog is the place for them.

Einat, the owner, is very responsive and clearly cares about both her customers and her employees--and it shows in the quality of their service. Charlie typically had the same walkers at the same time each week. They were all professional, caring, attentive, and TRUE dog lovers! I loved Strut the Pup's daily walk reports and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of while I was at work. On a few occasions when I was working from home, I watched as his regular walker arrived--Charlie would be waiting at the window and greeted them with full-body wags every time. When Charlie's hips started bothering him as he got older, the team helped me adjust his walks so he could continue enjoying his outdoor adventures. Sadly, Charlie has since passed, but I've saved many of the walk-report photos his walkers took (like this one), and they remain some of my favorite pictures of him. Thank you, Einat and team, for taking such wonderful care of Charlie.

My dogs walked with several team members over time, from puppy care daily walks to twice weekly walks as adults. The walkers have all been very kind and worked well with our dogs. I appreciate their updates and photos after each walk. It is very easy to schedule and to modify service as needed based on your schedule. They are responsive, professional, and truly care about their clients. I highly recommend strut the pup and will use this service again.
