Initially when we moved to West Seattle, I sent Daisy to a more conveniently located daycare. After…read morea few visits, it was noted by my partner who usually never notices the dogs' feelings, that Daisy never quite feels comfortable there. I observed soon after that when I would drop her off, I definitely saw her licking her lips and not look 100% comfortable. Coupled with a staff that seemed inattentive to customers waiting, and would not quite pay attention at drop off, we only went a handful of times. I just started Daisy here at Camp Crockett and she cannot get enough. When we pull up, she starts screaming in the car. When I drop her off, she doesn't even glance back at me! Her wiggly body language to the staff says "HURRY UP, open that door, let me go see my friends!" Daisy is a veteran of multiple different daycares across state lines, so the experience at the other day care came as a surprise--she never disliked any other daycare before. Now that she's at Camp Crockett, I'm comfortable that she's having a blast and feels safe to enjoy herself.

Each time we travel, they care for our three cats, Max, Earl, and Sherman, and we always return to healthy, relaxed, and very happy kitties. Kirsten's attention to detail is outstanding.

It gives us so much peace of mind knowing that not only are our pets in loving hands but our home is also being looked after. It is obvious Kirsten truly cares about animals and our cats clearly feel comfortable with her care. Coming home to calm, content cats after a trip is priceless.

I have subsequently seem him at the dog park and notice that Chet prefers more laid back, chill dogs. Clearly, he does not want to take on a dog that may require more interaction. That is perfectly fine and within his right to do so, I do not fault for him that. I feel compelled to write a review because of Chet's interaction with my during our meet-and-greet. He seemed standoffish and put off with my request to - get this - TAKE OFF HIS SHOES IN MY HOME. He paused and looked at me like I was asking him something super absurd. He obliged but told me bluntly, "I don't have time to do that and it's going to be a problem". Is it that out of line to ask someone coming into my home to take off his shoes, especially knowing that his shoes obviously go to dirty parks? I have worked with various different walkers and I have never encountered such an off-putting encounter.

I don't recall weight size limit (just ask them!) but my Maximo is accepted at 20 pounds. Also they do require a day trial test to assess if it's a good fit... BECAUSE THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE HERE!!!!

Trustworthy, knowledgeable and compassionate are a few words to describe this team. Kristin - the owner - is gifted with animals, she truly cares and gets to know them. She is observant and has made an effort to patiently work with my pup's less desirable traits. After only a few weeks in her care he was noticeably calmer around other dogs and she shared her techniques with me, even offering to join me on a walk to demonstrate. In addition to offering reliable - and reasonably priced! - walk or vacation care, Dog Star has been a resource for recommendations on all kinds of pet-related situations. Kristin saw us through the loss of one beloved dog with grace and understanding, I don't think we could have done it without her. The whole team seems to genuinely love their work and their work loves them right back, with slobbery kisses!
