    Cinnamon and me on graduation night.
    Jessica D.

    My dog, Cinnamon and I just graduated from Lise's Paws Afoot Adult Basic Manners class. We both learned a lot and really enjoyed our weekly training sessions. Our bond is even closer now and I am feeling more confident about my skills. I just wish there was an intermediate and/or advanced class. We will miss Lise and our weekly lessons.Thank You Lise for all you do!

    Note the blur, his feet are dancing and his tail is going a mile a minute in anticipation. He loves coming here so much!

    Originally we first went to The Dog Spot for Puppy I classes. It was a six week course, and considering we had been so diligent working on the basics at home we assumed these classes would mostly just be for socializing our tiny but fearless Yorkie. Boy, was I ever wrong. While he'd never shown any fear of people, cats, or older dogs, it turned out that he was very scared of puppies. Especially off leash puppies who wanted to play. That was when I realized how much we needed The Dog Spot. I hadn't even considered day care as I have plenty of time for the puppy. I assumed we'd only go for classes. But it turns out the puppy needed day care even if I didn't. Being only a tad over three pounds at our first class and him not knowing anything past the puppy manners he learned with his litter, he needed a chance to gain confidence around dogs before he could enjoy them. So we enrolled in their puppy preschool and it is worth every penny. After scheduling a tour and getting to talk to people working there I really felt like he would be in good hands. Not only do they keep a good eye on his progress, they also send a report card after every visit with photos and videos of his day. I really appreciate the training they give as well and the class videos are easy to follow along at home. The staff has been super helpful answering my questions and giving me recommendations too. I'm so glad we came here instead of going to some random puppy social as they really learn to know the dogs and match them up so they can control the environment and all interactions well. I've watched my puppy go from a terrified, cowering mess to a bouncy, playful little dog who loves almost nothing more than going there. He's so excited every morning when he realizes we're going and he loves everyone there. It makes me feel so proud to see him flourish and I'm so thankful for the help. I'm also thankful for a little time to myself too, it really helped with the puppy blues. 13/10 Good job!

    We've been sending our 3 year old Shiba Inu to daycare here ever since he developed separation anxiety and could not be left alone while we're at work. Besides the convenient location of being on my way to work, The Dog Spot takes great care of Hanzo and he is always excited to go to daycare and play with other dogs. I really like that the dogs are grouped into small and large groups and that they limit the number of dogs in daycare to provide enough attention and care. The picture report cards are also a plus because we love seeing our Hanzo interacting and playing with other dogs.

    Our baby Quill is going to Puppy Preschool here. He is a great dog but he has quite a few problems, as any pup might. The Dog Spot is amazing, they send us videos addressing any training problems we are having with him and they work with him during daycare. He always comes home tired and calm. It's been a god-send. I would highly recommend to anyone.

    Loretta cared for my cat and chickens when I was away on vacation, and did an outstanding job…read morecaring for my animals when we were away. She was incredibly thorough with the details and went way out of her way to make sure my chickens were safely put up for the night, every night, when our automatic chicken door timer was malfunctioning. I NEVER would have gotten that kind of courtesy if I'd hired some non-professional pet sitter off of Care.com, which I considered. And I'm pretty sure she even hosed the patio of chicken poop (and neatly coiled the hose) even though I didn't ask her to do that. I know EXACTLY who to call next time we have to leave our fur and feather babies! Thanks Loretta!

    I don't even know where to begin with how ecstatic I am that I found Loretta! We had a trip come up…read moreearlier this year in May, so I contacted All Creatures Great & Small based on recommendations I saw here on Yelp. I've worked in the pet sitting business myself years back, so when Loretta immediately contacted me and then came by to meet the cats, I was wary to see what we were up against. I shouldn't have had even the slightest concern! Loretta is both warm and personable, asks a ton of questions so she knew what we wanted, and got to know each of our kitties. They took to her right away (even the skittish one!) and I felt comfortable after her first "get to know you" visit. I knew our cats and fish were in excellent hands. She came daily, on schedule, spent time with the cats while we were away. She even tidied up around the house and kept them entertained! We got updates via text how they were doing, and she was always quick to respond if I contacted her. So positive and upbeat. We simply adore her and cannot recommend this service highly enough! I know that from here on out, Loretta will be our go-to if we have to go out of town because she's just fantastic with the animals and an all around fabulous lady. I've never felt *so* comfortable being away from home simply because I knew they were in amazing company. I wish I could give 10 stars, but 5 will have to do. Her prices are insanely reasonable for the amount of care she brings to the job and it was all around the best service for our meows that we could have possibly asked for!

    I absolutely adore this place!…read more Aside from a Petco or Petsmart I don't think I've ever really been in a reptile store and I got to tell you, every time I visit to pick up rats for my snakes, UGG. I love it! I feel like once in awhile they change their layout but the most RECENT change up? Amazing! Please don't change it. My favorite are the giant snakes (that used to be in the back and harder to see) but now I can see them up front and center! They are huge! I came a few weeks ago when one of the staff members were handling the green tree python and ugg so beautiful in person (I watch a lot of snake videos on YT). Anyways, I'm getting carried away, I initially wanted to leave a review for my actual purchase of F/T rats and mice. I still remember the first time I came in and I asked for some mice... the sweet girl goes to the back and brings me a LIVE MOUSE! I'm like "ooooh no no no, I need frozen please!" Haha! Ever since then, I make sure to clarify I need frozen. My hognose is a great eater and never had any issues and before I found this place, I had to order in bulk like 50-100... and it was not cheap nor did I have the space. When I got my ball python, there was no way I was going to be ordering 50+ rats and you know how they can be... when I first got him he ate 2 times and decided to go on a hunger strike for 6 months... good thing I didn't have 48 more rats in my freezer lol! Both my snakes eat great which means they really take care of their rodents and I have been a happy customer for the past 1.5ish years? I used to drive up from Ballard but now we live in Everett so it's only 15 mins away! Thanks for all that you guys do and being welcoming every time (:

    We went to Hewitt Reptile Emporium looking to buy a crested gecko, but staff member Nina sold us on…read morea veiled chameleon instead... and we couldn't be happier! Even though the chameleon is a more complicated creature to care for, Nina taught us everything we needed to know to be successful with our new pet, and has continued to answer any questions that have arisen. Also, unlike at the big chain stores, Hewitt breeds their own chameleons and they know what they're doing. If you buy a reptile from Petco or Petsmart, you're likely to get one that has been bred from poor stock, has been improperly cared for, and is unhealthy. Avoid these expensive and heartbreaking problems by shopping at Hewitt!

I live far where I have to take a ferry across the water to get to seattle/everrett area. Unfortunately because of the ferry system and events occurring downtown the boats were over an hour late. With this location I had initially put a request to drop off my dog at 3pm Saturday and pickup Sunday afternoon. But due to the ferry system I was very late but luckily The company was very accommodating and were understanding of the traffic situations I sadly didn't reach the location until 8pm, happily They have someone at the location 24/7 to watch all the pups and help take my dog in for the night. They keep you updated with texts and photos of your doggy so you know they are safe and even have a live cam you can monitor your dog with. He received spoiled treats and a lot of exercise and socialization. He could play all day. Picking him up was smooth as well. They gave me a update of his night He passed out on the way home tail still wagging. Picking him up he looked happy and excited 10/10 would recommend and go again

Arguably the worst situation, is that upon picking my dog up, she had hair loss and skin lesions under her belly and thigh and on her neck, one actively oozing!! She was filthy, her bedding looked like it was left outside for the 2 weeks! Maybe she was too! I am so upset that I left my dog there, after having to pay $1050, and now vet costs, I cannot recommend this place. We have been coming here for a few years, never again! Owners and facility should be shut down and inspected. The filth of the dog bed alone was alarming, much less my dog having a skin infection!
