I'm so excited for Janet and her K-9 camp! I found Janet about 4 years ago while living in Yakima…read morethrough Rover. Just so you know, she has over 200 reviews with a 5 star average on Rover. To say Janet treats your pups like family is an understatement. She takes great care that not only your pups get their basic needs met during their stay, but cares for their safety and comfort as well. I booked with Janet almost monthly during my 3 years in Yakima. I still joke that they get better care with her than at home! Since relocating to the west side I still drive the 2 hrs so she can be the one to care for my pups while I'm gone. She provides pics and updates during their stay. She has modified her home so that any dog that stays with her has the best time. Great outdoor and indoor space! She even has filtered/purified water delivered for all of her guests, so no tap water for your pups! I have never had to worry about leaving my dogs with Janet

When I asked why it would be so expensive I was told we had to pay for an undercoat removal or the clippers would not work. This has never been an issue in the past. We were told a cut would be impossible without this service. This was an outright lie to upsell. The pet store a block away made an immediate appointment for $82. We are done with Petco. It is like dealing with a stereotypical used car salesman. Avoid! Update: The insulting auto-reply to my post from the company should tell you all you need to know. Pricing was a secondary issue. It was the upselling and outright lies that led to the bad review. Shame on you Petco!

Stick with an actual dog groomer place and skip this place. Also, I had added the summer package, but on the way home I realized they did not have the bandana or bow that should have been on for pickup and they did not give us the toy. I was able to go back and get the items but still, I shouldn't have had to do that. Bandana felt still and the flamingo toy felt a little on the cheaper side. Very disappointed with the service for the price you pay.

They were only a few months old and I left that day with the love of my life. The ladies at the event (don't recall their names) were extremely nice and informative. They made sure I went home with plenty of the food that he was previously eating to make a smooth transition to his new food. I am forever in debt to Barks R Us for giving me my very best friend. I will be looking to get him a new brother / sister in the next few months and will be looking at Barks R Us first! IF ANYONE ADOPTED ONE OF THE CORGI / SHEPHERD MIXED PUPPIES SEND ME A MESSAGE! I have been dying to know how they all turned out! My boy (Peanut) has severe seperation anxiety and after doing some research I found out most causes are from being taken from their moms too early in life. I am curious if anyone else has seen this behavior in their pups.

My boyfriend and I recently adopted a small dog from here. Elly was a delight to deal with and we're super happy with our new addition. Be prepared to fill out a long application if you want to go through this agency, but it's well worth it. I mean we were more than happy to drive to Yakima and back (from Seattle) for our ne little puppy. The adoption "donation" is super reasonable and the dogs all seem to be happy and well cared for! If you're looking for a new addition to your family, this just might be the place for you.

I adopted a little dog from Kathy named " Giggles " about 13 years ago. I had seen her for adoption…read morehad instant connection We drove to Yakima to see her, and I will never forget that day! Kathy had us sit as she let the dogs out all they were mainly big dogs as we were watching a little white dog comes out from that pack full of confidence, Kathy asked us to just sit and watch as we did this little cute smart dog jumped on my grandson lap and started to lick him. It was love at first sight Kathy told us her background which was horrible, and our hearts melted. Kathy you were right in letting her pick us for she was extremely intelligent very sensitive and always remained loyal She brought us so much joy, she on her own would do tricks made us laugh and was so loving! Four months ago, she had a seizure took her to the vet after x rays etc. was diagnosed with bad heart valves, she was 13 and would not survive any medical interventions. We hung on to her while treating her with heart and pain meds for as long as possible without making her suffer but it came to a point where she was having more bad days then good and with her expressive eyes, she let me know. We had a vet that comes to your home for euthanasia she died peacefully on the couch at home. I just want to let you know the choice you made letting her adopt us was right she had a very good life and was much loved. Thank you, Kathy for Sophie " Giggles" who brought us years of joy!

I feel compelled to write because I had a successful adoption from Lifesavers. We couldn't be more…read morelucky to have our dog in our house. Yes, before we were accepted, the operator was cold. She runs the organization on her own and as such, has to keep it short - she gets many requests a day after all. Additionally PUPPIES ARE A LOT OF WORK and most people don't realize the amount of time or effort they require to be good canine citizens. When we first picked up our dog, she needed to go outside about every two hours. That is a lot of work. Add in the amount of time we spent training and working with her? Tons of work. Countless hours. But now, when she goes to stay with our friends who also have the same breed, they are shocked by how well behaved ours is. But I reiterate, the amount of time, crazy. We were initially rejected because we lived in a condo, but I couldn't let it go. So I wrote back a very polite email that if she ever changed her mind, we'd take the pup. Eventually we heard back and over night, the operator changed. When we met her, she indicated that she'd received a lot of threats from people, had people turn out to be horrible adopters, and was simply very protective. While it was frustrating, I think it's important to understand the situation she is in as well. I've volunteered with other organizations since, and I now know that most people will not give a reason why they don't approve you because they don't want to insult or hurt the peoples feelings.
