We got her gps location as well as videos, and photos every day of her playing with them.She even stayed slightly longer than we agreed to whenever she could. We came back to happy and healthy cats. They were certainly loved on while we were gone!! I would hire Kristin again in a heartbeat. The cats even got a Christmas gift!!!

Kristin is way more than a dog walker - she is a partner in Luna's care, giving me nutrition and other health advice and generally being fully invested my pup's well being. I also board Luna with Kristin when I'm out of town (even if family is available). I know Kristin's standard of care is as high or higher than mine so I don't have to worry about her while I'm away for work or vacation. Luna can't wait to go in to Kristin's house or see her at mine! Bonus is Kristin takes great pictures which fill my heart with joy.

Strut the Pup walked my yellow lab, Charlie, for over five years, and I have nothing but wonderful…read morethings to say about their one-on-one dog walking. 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.

We've had the fortune of being able to have Mary take our pup, Buttercup, on walks for the past…read morefive years. Mary has always been on time and very communicative - texting us when she's on her way to pick up Buttercup and also sending us pictures of Buttercup on her park adventures with her friends. Buttercup has also spent some time on overnights at Mary's home when we've gone out of town on trips and she has such a blast! Mary truly takes care of Buttercup as if she's her own pup. We're really sad that we can't teleport Mary over to us on the East Coast so that she can continue walking Buttercup. Maybe one day!

I am so sad I have moved out of their service area and won't be able to work with them any more. I got fun updates with texts and photos every day. Dianne is fantastic about communicating and incredibly reliable. I would have her come for an hour/day when we were out of town just so my kitties would get some social interaction and love. Her visits would make such a difference when we came back. If we didn't have Dianne come they would be stressed and feeling abandoned but after Dianne taking care of them they were relaxed and just wondering when we would feed them. If you're looking for fantastic pet care I cannot recommend them enough.

There are so many out there we had a hard time choosing but ended up trying Dotty's because of the other Yelp reviews. It ended up being a great choice! Cary was great with our cats and sent us email updates every few days to keep us informed.

I am truely grateful that Bennie has a pup academy of his own!

Dogtopia at Roosevelt Square has been life changing for me and my puppy, Drax. Initially, he was…read morereally shy and I wasn't sure it was going to work out for us. After two or three weeks, he started warming up to the other dogs and started to get excited about going. Now he acts like he runs the place and is like a completely different dog. He gets tons of exercise and the staff are really friendly and accommodating. He paws at the door when we get there and can't wait to see everyone. I love the webcams because I can check in on him whenever I want. They offer special lunch time snacks and have lots of events, like bubbles and puppy art. I can't say enough about how much we both love this place!

I've had dogs my whole life but I now have a dog that has long, easily matted fur for the first time ever. The very first time I brought her to Citydog, Brooke told me many good practices to keep her mat free between grooms. I've been back to her countless times and she always does a great job. It's the reality of all long haired dogs that they need to be combed and brushed daily at home. Although I don't do a great job of keeping up with this maintenance between grooms, I'm so grateful I can trust Brooke to help reset my dog's fur whenever I come in. She always does exactly what I ask for and tells me which areas I need to pay more attention to when I'm brushing her at home based on where the most of her mats were. I used to live in Ballard but moved away about 2 years ago and haven't been able to find a groomer who does as good of a job as Brooke.

I have boarded my dog here several times and each time he has come back very dirty and urine…read moresoaked. I had to immediately take him to the bath and let me tell you the water was disgusting. This place charges very high boarding fees, charges extra $15 a night for blocks of holiday days, charges an additional $65 if you pick the dog up after lunch time. You may end up paying $180 to board your dog for 1 night so beware. This price does not include walks, the dogs all pee inside in the play pen. For the outrageous fees, you would expect more. It's so unsanitary. I will never again book this place for my puppy. I don't see how they stay in business. The grooming is abosultely terrible. It's shocking, and for the price you pay you would expect it to look semi professional. Each time the dog was shaved down despite asking for poodle cut. I am done with this place, I only went back for convenience but never again. They need some new management, re-evaluate their fee structure or actually hire some people. Greedy owners will do theirselves in.

Kevin takes my older dog out to go potty when he drops off the puppy, and she becomes so excited to see Kevin as well.
