Pet Boarding Training near Burien

“A great find near the airport. We can't say enough good things about the love and care the entire staff provides. Love that they have an outside area for the dogs.“

“Very solid training programs. Some of the trainers are very good. The teen play sessions are particularly helpful.“

“We had recently adopted a dog (Hank) who had extreme separation anxiety. We don't know much about his past, but his behaviors led us to believe he'd been left in crates and small places prior to being abandoned. Initially when we got him and started to leave him alone at home for a few hours, we realized we couldn't crate him so gave him relatively free reign of the house. He peed and pooped, and literally tore up screens, window shades, and door frames as if he was trying to claw is way out of the house. We were feeling pretty desperate when we reaced out to Sensitive Dog, and thankfully, after getting the details of what Hank was experiencing, allowed us to get in quickly to assist with Hank's issues. We had one 2-1/2 hour session with Julie, who was amazing. She showed us a very specific game to play with Hank to help to tire his mind and relax him when we were planning to be away from the house. She also taught us how to desensitize him when we were going to leave, and we are so grateful we found Julie!
It has now been four months since our training session with Hank, and he's doing great! We can now leave him comfortably and know that he doesn't panic when we leave. He now goes to his comfy place on the couch and relaxes until we return. We are so very thankful for the skills Julie taught us to make all our lives more peaceful and comfortable, and we highly recommend Sensitive Dog to anyone who needs help with their beloved doggies!“

“Rainier Dog Resort After subjecting my sweet Sheba, to several bad groomings; we have finally found our place! I went to the opening of Rainier Dog Resort to check them out. It is such a beautiful facility, but more importantly, the staff are knowledgeable, genuine, friendly, and truly care about the animals they care for. I had to get a stool sample done for my dog, which I have never had to do before, but I am so grateful they require this. My dog had Giardia and I had no idea. I got her treated and she finally was able to see the groomer, Sarah. My sweet girl is a rescue, and has had many bad experiences with grooming. From the get-go, I was helped by one of the owners to get her inside where we were greeted by the friendly reception staff. Everything was so clean and smelled so good. They even had bowls with treats and little treat bags for the dogs. I left and Sheba went in to get groomed. 90 minutes later, I got a call letting me know that she was ready for pick up. She came out with a wagging tail and looked beautiful. Sarah did a wonderful job trying to correct what was done at her previous two groomings at Reber Ranch and Petco. They did an excellent job trimming up her pads and nails and did not leave her bleeding and in pain. Sarah also tidied up her nether regions. I am so glad I brought Sheba here. The owners Kelli and Sam are wonderful, knowledgeable and super friendly. They have opened up the ultimate Dog Resort and spa and the pricing is reasonable. I like the fact that they do their very best to keep the animals safe and not spreading disease by ensuring that the pets they take in are properly vaccinated and checked for parasites. I know this was a long review, but I just cannot say enough good things about Rainier Dog Resort and the Staff. I am so grateful to have found this place. We will be back :-)“

“love. Love. LOVE this business. We've been going for the past 4 months to Puppy Play Time and our pup graduated Puppy Kindergarten. This has been the best experience socializing our pup in a controlled environment. He can get his zoomies out, get rambunctious with his playmates, learn good manners in playing with other dogs - in our case, both larger and smaller breeds.

We stopped going to dog parks a long time ago as many other owners are neither conscientious or even attentive to their dogs' behaviors. Wonder Dogs is a resource which allows for natural behaviors but in a safe and controlled environment. They work with positive reinforcement and we, as owners, learn so much from them. We are lucky to have this resource available to us. Highly recommend.“

“We brought our Max here because he was very reactive and we wanted to be able to take him places. The trainers are great and our boy is finally able to be around other dogs.“

“Excellent!!! Had a number of openings which is wonderful for scheduling. Only two hours for our grooming“

“We were so fortunate to find Suzanne (Pampered Parrot). We had had a bad experience boarding our little guy Kiki (cockatiel) and were concerned about leaving him. She set us at ease immediately. She is a gentle, loving human being. Kiki took to her immediately. She kept us apprised of his stay with pictures and updates which we appreciated so much. I am preparing her organic rice pilaf for him and he loves the toys she recommended. She truly knows and loves birds. We plan to leave Kiki with Suzanne again when we travel next year. I give her the highest recommendation.“

“I would recommend NWSAM to anyone seriously interested in animal care through body work. The instructors, online and in person, have years of knowledge they pass on through each course. Although I am new to the massage field, I have confidence and mentorship because of this school. Every resource you can imagine is available to you. I will be continuing in my studies here. Thank you NWSAM team!“

“Phenomenal pet service. I’ve used this service for several years now. It’s dependable, timely, caring, and the owner is an excellent communicator. It is nice having someone you don’t ever have to worry about in your home. My pup gets regular walks, has stayed at her home while I’ve traveled, and she’s helped me out at times of crisis. In fact my pup had a seizure and I was SO glad it was while in Elizabeth’s care as she knew exactly what to do. FABULOUS person to boot!“

“Cierra and Kyle were lifesavers for our chaotic, high energy and active dog. We had done so many types of dog training programs before this one, and are still in awe at how much this program changed our lives. Both trainers were kind, flexible and INCREDIBLY knowledgeable. We felt so heard, and like our concerns were made into action plans with clear steps. We did the 8- week program with 1 hour per week lessons, and did 1 hour of training on our own each day outside of that. They were so motivated and confident we could work on all the things- jumping, reactivity, and prey drive. We now feel confident and comfortable living our lives with Leena in a tight heel walk and are able to recall her off leash with ease. Thank you Kyle and Cierra!“

“I cannot recommend Veda enough — In my 4 years working together, I have felt so much trust and comfort knowing that Veda is taking the best care of my dog, who always comes home from adventures and boarding feeling tired and happy. Veda is also highly communicative and professional. Her experience facilitating a safe environment for her dog pack speaks for itself. If and when I need long-term boarding in the future, I would absolutely drive 12 hours to Seattle just for Veda!“

“We have loved our experience working with Gloria! She started working with our puppy around 9 weeks and she is now 15 weeks old. Gloria has helped our puppy learn sit, down, stay, leave it, drop it, wait, crate, and heel. In addition to teaching these skills, Gloria is an amazing resource for understanding how to work with your dog and all things puppy. Gloria has allowed us to feel confident that we are doing things the right way and that we are on track to have a great dog for years to come! We definitely recommend her to all new puppy owners.“

“Jaime and Wesley have been taking care of our sweet little girl for years. Walks, overnights when the whole human family is on vacation, pop ins when life/work is to much and we need an extra hand. Puget Sound Pupper is amazing“

“My doggo loves it here. Awesome staff who truly are dog people. Definitely trust them with my little guy.“

“Our pup has gone there for the last 3 years for boarding and daycare and loved every moment. If I could pick them up and take them to Tacoma with us, I would. They have done little projects and pictures for holidays with the dogs and do add on enrichment activities that the dogs love. If your pup needs some play time or someone to watch them when you go out of town, Gold Star is fantastic!“

“Dr. Norstrem has been caring for our four-legged family members for twenty-eight years. He is simply the best veterinarian in the area. We love Dr. N. and his entire staff and so do our pets. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would.“

“Our first visit with Jessica was about 90 minutes. She met Teddy, our 4-year-old Golden Doodle, and observed him as we discussed our goals for the training. Jessica put together a 10-day program tailored to his (and our) needs. She kept us aware of his progress with videos and phone calls throughout his stay. On the final day, we had a 60-minutes training session where Jessica gave us the information we needed to continue the improvement he had made. We recommend Jessica Apperson to anyone looking for a dog trainer.“

“Amazing place! Wonderful people! Took amazing care of my kitties. They were incredibly flexible and worked with me during all the ups and downs of one of the worst moves of my life! I'm so grateful to Cat Sitting Hotels! They helped make, at least this part of my transition, stress free.“

“Dr. Quincy and her staff are always compassionate and caring advocates for our cats, Peach and Wiley. I would highly recommend West Seattle Animal Hospital and Dr. Quincy to anyone.“

“The Renton veterinary Hospital has been a wonderful place to take my iPad that Dr Singh is a great doctor. I’ll always take my pets there..“

“My furry friend has stayed at PetsHotel several times when we've been unable to travel together. It's a warm and welcoming environment where your dog can enjoy Doggie DayCamp and socialize with other pups.

The staff is incredibly caring and treats every animal with love and respect. I especially want to commend Amber for her exceptional dedication and genuine affection for the animals.

Leaving your pet at PetsHotel, especially with the wonderful staff like Amber, gives you peace of mind knowing they're in great hands and receiving the best possible care.“

“Amazing! I love this place because of the team working there! I feel so confident leaving my best friend with them. They are always caring and patient!“

“Friendly staff, exceptional level of cleanliness, your pets will be taken care of exceptionally well!! Competitive pricing with other doggy daycares and grooming services around!!“

“The staff at DC are always phenomenal! And their walk-in nail service is something you can't find in Seattle! Always a smile, and they remember my dog every single time! Highly recommend for any grooming needs!“

“My dog really loves this place. He always comes back happy and the staff do an excellent job“
