It was a pleasure to have Cindy care for my cat Stella while I was away on an unexpected last-minute trip. Cindy sent frequent updates and photos, which provided a great comfort to me since I had only been home from a long trip 3 days before suddenly having to leave again. Stella seemed quite comfortable with Cindy's company! I returned home to a relaxed kitty and tidy apartment. Thank you, Cindy!

Quiet, reliable and responsible cat (and small dog) lady
This was our first time using a Trusted Sitter, and I'm so grateful Elena chose to stay with our precious pup. He's a senior dog that requires a little extra attention, and Elena was so kind and caring with him. From our very first zoom call to get to know one another, I knew Elena would be a great fit. She was very organized, told us what she needed to know, and was very flexible when our dates changed a bit. Elena sent several pictures of Beamer every day. My kids eagerly awaited to see what their brother was up to while we were away. He looked so happy in all of his pictures. She took him for walks and gave him plenty of cuddle time. Elena also took such great care of our home. We arrived back to a spotless house! Our experience with Elena was more than I could have hoped for using Trusted Sitter. It was like having an old friend stay over. I highly recommend Elena, and hope she will be available to stay the next time we go on vacation!

Hi! I am Olivia, and my partner's name is Belrie. We look forward to meeting you
I am so fortunate because I had to cancel this sit at the last moment and Olivia and Belrie were extremely understanding. All our communications leading up to the sit were phenomenal, and I can't wait to have them stay with Pearl soon.

Caring, responsible and reliable house and pet sitters since Nov 2020
Once again, Todd and Janis were wonderful sitters. They were easy to communicate with, sent adorable photos, and took great care of our home.

I've lost track of the number of times Jasmine has house sit for us. As always she is reliable and responsive. I know my house and pets are in good hands with her. She is a great communicator. We came home to a clean house and happy kitties. I highly recommend her!

Non-smoking remote worker eager to love your pets as my own!
Monica was an outstanding house sitter. She communicated well, took very good car of our cat, and was very gracious after a falling tree limb took out the internet. We would definitely invite her to sit again.

I’m either fighting crime or with animals in my downtime <3
We loved having Duha sit for us. Communication was excellent and she needed little guidance after the initial walk-through. Both cats took to her immediately and really missed her when we returned. Duha even navigated some contract work outside the house when workers that we had been waiting on showed up unexpectedly. All in all, we had a great experience and would love to have Duha back any time.

Warm, responsible sitter. Equally a dog/cat and indoor/outdoor person.
Amara is so friendly to humans and dogs alike. It is clear she loves hanging with dogs and knows how to take care of them. She did a great job with my large dog for a week, sent regular updates and communicated consistently. She also treated the house well and left the place very clean. I hope to have her back soon, as does my pup!

What a great experience we had with Lisa. She was so good with Cella. She was very tolerant of Cella's early rising. She's a tiny little thing, but has a big personality and knows what she wants. Lisa was so good at reading her needs. We were able to have a zoom interview with Lisa before we confirmed the sit. She stayed in touch with us daily and kept us updated on how things were going. When we arrived home, Lisa had washed all of the bedding and towels. She vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned the kitchen and bathroom. We couldn't be more pleased with Lisa as our sitter for Cella. We hope we'll be able to have her again. She was awesome.

Reliable and trustworthy pet lovers
Abby and Matt were so easy to work with and we immediately felt comfortable with them in our home and with our beloved fur babies. They were communicative and clear leading up to the visit. They stopped by our place the evening before the sit started to meet our pets and get the lay of the land. During the visit, they sent just the right amount of updates and photos to give us peace of mind. We returned to a clean home and happy pets and plants. Abby even agreed to change my hummingbird food a couple of times to keep our feathered friends happy and safe. I’d recommend them for anyone looking for friendly, responsible pet sitters.
If we could give 10 out of 5 stars for Candace, Brian, and Chris, we would! They were amazing house and dog sitters for Brown Dog and Scout. They were so accommodating with our timeline and had read our welcome guide to a tee! It was so reassuring being gone for 2 weeks and knowing our pups were in amazing hands. They sent us daily updates and pictures and it was clear the dogs were so well cared for! They left the house very clean and even had all of our bedding and towels washed for us when we arrived home. Would absolutely recommend them for a sit and would love to have them back again any time!
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Liz was a fantastic sitter for our boys and took great care of our home. She was a great communicator and kept us informed of what was happening and how our dogs were doing. She also kept our home clean and tidy. We would be grateful to have Liz sit for us anytime!
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
Jamie was a lifesaver! Our confirmed sitter canceled just greater than 2 weeks out from our trip, and after just a short chat I could tell that she was ideal for our home and dogs. When we had a Covid exposure just before leaving for our trip Jamie didn't miss a beat. We did a hand-off of the dogs and home outdoors to keep her safe. We unfortunately had another exposure just before returning home, so were bummed that we couldn't spend some time with Jamie before she left us. Jamie is dependable, organized, and flexible with scheduling. She is an excellent communicator and sent us the cutest pictures of our dogs. We knew Teddy and Bella were in very capable hands while we were away. Jamie left our house very clean and with all the linens washed. She even left a plant and thank you card, so thoughtful! We would love to have Jamie back at any time to sit for us. I give her the highest recommendation!
Tom and Diana were perfect house sitters and guests. Great company, our dog immediately made herself at home with Tom. Animals loved and cleaned. House spotless, great communication and even left a thank you card and gift when they left. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
Delphine was amazing. All 3 of our fur babies took an instant liking to her, which is very unusual of them. We right away knew both our cats and our dog would be happy with her. We came back to relaxed and happy pets and a clean house. We think we found our ‘go to’ house sitter with Delphine. We would love to have her over again.
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
Stephanie, Brian and baby Martin took fabulous care of our home and pets for two weeks. From the outset, communication was quick, smooth and friendly and it was clear that both Stephanie and Brian are reliable, professional and warm sitters who take all the various elements of a sit seriously. They kept us up to date with photos and messages, dealt proactively and competently with any unexpected issues that popped up, and most importantly showered our dogs and gerbils with attention and care throughout the time we were away. We returned to a spotlessly clean home (with thoughtful touches of fresh milk, bacon and bread waiting for us) and happy, settled pets. In short, we would recommend Stephanie and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive and proactive sitters for their pets and home. We would be delighted to welcome them back for another sit, should they ever find themselves in the area again.

Luna has been a Jax for years and we couldn’t be happier. Luna is a rescue who generally is not fond of men or cowers but she absolutely LOVES Tanner. She also gets so excited to see Lou in the mornings. Between these two employees it’s why we stay at Jax. Their adorable nicknames for her and their love for her are priceless. On top of that she has made many friends and even the little love of her life , Mango. I love seeing the adorable photos and activities on Instagram. Lou is our favorite and is doing an amazing job communicating with me as a parent. I always know Luna is in the best hands at Jax. Bubble days are amazing!
Super friendly and very professional staff. They care details about your dog and treat them like a family. I trust Lou as a dog expert and professional trainer. My dog (Pluto) was very shy and not social type of dog since she come from rescue. But since we met Lou and Jax Dog Drop staff, Pluto transformed and she plays with friends with a big smile!! THANK YOU!!
We have taken our 10 month old puppy to Jax for a few full days now. The staff has been very friendly and informative about the process. It is very easy to schedule a drop-in as well. Anytime he’s there, he comes home all tired out which is such a relief.
Jax is amazing! I 100% recommend bringing your dog here! I was so worried my big dog wouldn’t fit in because of his leash reactivity and made sure everyone knew his background and they made sure he had a slow intro and they said he did amazing! My little dog also loves it here! She’s been to daycare before and she is definitely more comfortable here than where she was going before! I give Jax 5 stars! Attentive, caring, compassionate, and staff is super friendly and informative!
We had an escalating health scare with our dog that meant we had to change boarding plans several times. Jax was with us every step of the way and were very empathetic when we ended up cancelling our trip to stay home with our sick dog. We will not hesitate to board at Jax next time we need dog care.
The services of Jax Dog Drop are very helpful to have (used them several times when needed during trips or house remodeling periods), and the dogs seem very happy here! I rate four stars rather than five, for only one downside: dogs will occasionally come back smelling mildly like urine (maybe one in five days), with some other dog’s urine dried to their bodies and/or heads. With very small indoor dogs, cleanliness is extremely important and so this requires that they be fully bathed at home after picking them up (which adds a lot of time and effort to an already expensive ordeal). Overall, our dogs still seek to enjoy it here! But, it still is an issue worth mentioning, and one which I have not had elsewhere at some other dog day care locations (though I am not sure why). If they addressed this issue in some way (perhaps they could offer a service where they quickly bathe your dogs at pickup time, or figure out some other way to keep larger dogs from soiling smaller dogs near by) I’ll happily update this review to five stars.
Our husky has gone to Jax for a few years now. He loves it there! He has lots of friends, he has plenty of space to run and play, and the handlers take good care of the dogs. The supervisor Linnea is amazing! She's so sweet, and is incredible with the dogs.
We've recently started taking our dog, Cannon to Jax Dog Drop and he absolutely loves it! Our first experience was boarding Cannon for a two-night-stay and it went smooth! We saw photos/videos of Cannon thru their social media, which kept us at ease. At the end, we received a "report card" which detailed Cannon's stay! From then on, we've utilized their daycare services at least twice a week. Every time we pull into the parking lot, Cannon's behavior becomes ecstatic and he is evidently thrilled to go inside! We appreciate the staff here as its obvious that the dogs are well cared for!
My big dog loves going to Jax!! Lou knows my dog so well and makes sure to give me updates and fun stuff about my dog when at daycare. We have been going here for years and can’t imagine what we would do without them!
We love Jax!! We've taken our dog Barry here for daycare several times and he just did his first overnight and he LOVED it. He was hesitant the first few times we took him for daycare but he warmed up and now wants to go back. The staff is always very courteous and the animals are obviously well cared for. Best part: I just found out they post pictures to their Facebook page and I found this great picture from a few months back!
We love bringing our dogs to Scampers! The staff aren't just knowledgeable and professional, they genuinely care about the well-being of your pups and work with you to ensure your pup enjoys being at daycare. The best place to bring your dogs for a fun day of daycare!
We got our pup King T’Challa during the pandemic and we were stressed out about socializing him - but we found our forever home at Scamper Bellevue and Kirkland. I love this place and so does my husband! Our dog has been going since be was a pup. The daycare feels like a family and I completely trust our little baby with their care from boarding to day camp!
My dogs love it here! They literally start to whine and bark as soon as I park. They scurry in so fast without even looking back at me (haha). I feel like my pups are in good hands here and I don’t have to worry.
Great place to bring your dog to daycare. Bruno loves all the staff and the fellow dogs he meets. We haven't tried boarding yet but nice they have a services like that. Also they offer grooming/nail trims once or twice a month. Very friendly and happy to keep bringing our pup😄 …
Don't bring your dogs here. Exceptionally rude customer service. After spending easily 20k here i'm blown away at how rude their staff is to customers. Also they don't know how to handle dogs. My dog had her head yanked through a crate door because they reached in and dragged her through. When I tried to talk to them about it the owner refused to let me speak and just got incredibly defensive. We came here for 3 years. 2 1/2 we were told our dog is wonderful and behaves so well, then they changed their staff and all of a sudden my dog was treated badly and were told it's her behaviour. Meanwhile they send home report cards that say no incident. Also staff straight up say "you shouldn't bring your dogs here". I would avoid this place like the plague. There's plenty of other places that we've brought our dog without incident. Really went downhill last 6 months.
Our dogs LOVE coming to Scampers! The initial meeting was super quick and then they got a larger report card of their first day. Both my dogs get super excited as soon as they see the building because they know it’s daycare! Staff are very friendly and give attention to the pups! I know my dogs are safe and well cared for while I’m at work. Scheduling days is easy through the Gingr portal!
My dog loves the Scampers Bellevue branch. The handlers are incredibly friendly. The co-owner that primarily runs this branch is super kind. My dog is ALWAYS pooped after a long day here. And if your pup develops any quirks while coming here they do an amazing job at communicating with you and trying to find the best way to help your pup and you. I highly suggest them. :)
I have been bringing my dog, Kenny, to Scampers since he was a pup. The staff is great - so friendly and attentive. I just love everything about this doggy daycare and so does Kenny
This is an excellent place to leave your dogs. They are friendly and are very attentive. My dog does a lot of playing and gets tuckered out, which is great because she is very high energy. I also board her here whenever I go out of town. They are very trustworthy and it is nice to get the report cards, while I am out of town.
Scampers is an amazing place for dogs; the people there are super nice and caring about your dog; I like that they give a report card, my dog has stayed overnight and loved it. The day care goes until 7 pm. It is clean and bright with space for dogs to romp around!
Katherine is great with my 2 dogs, one of which is very anxious. My anxious dog goes with her willingly (and usually won't go with anyone else willingly), and I get pictures and updates about them. I know she takes great care of them and they enjoy being with her. I really feel like I don't have to worry about them when they are in her care.
Kat and her husband put their all into what they do. They take wonderful care of all who boards with them and Kat is an exceptional trainer. She truly has a gift. If you're in the area and want the best care for your pet, this is the only way to go!
Katherine has the best dog handling skills. She truly loves animals. I'm very fortunate to have met her.
Their listed website is nothing but a bunch of spam/virus ads that try to seize up your browser. No thanks.
Always wonderful!
Our dog has been with Jessica on multiple occasions now from boarding and also training. She’s so sweet with them and takes them on all sorts of fun adventures! Our pup’s a bit dog and human reactive, but Jessica has been nothing but understanding and helping her get over her anxious tendencies. She is also great and teaches us how to handle and continue training our dog to be calmer. We love getting the updates and seeing our puppy run around with the other dogs and look so happy. Jessica is an absolute joy to work, super understanding, and our dog now wiggles her little tail whenever we drop her off. Cannot recommend her enough!
We’ve worked with Jessica over the past year, who continues to blow us away with her amazing talent for nurturing and training our sweet girl, Pippin. From the very beginning, it was clear that she is a true expert in dog training. Pippin has had issues with reactiveness, and Jessica approached these challenges with remarkable gentleness and responsiveness. Her methods not only addressed Pippin's reactivity but also ensured that she remained the sweet, cuddly dog we've always known her to be. Throughout our sessions, and boarding with Jessica, she demonstrates an impressive depth of knowledge and a genuine love for animals. She tailored her approach to Pippin's specific needs, creating a safe and supportive environment where she could learn and grow. Thanks to her patience and expertise, Pippin has made significant progress, and we have seen a remarkable improvement in her behavior. Of course, dog training is a partnership, and it is imposant that we uphold the routine and structure that Jessica has provided Pippin when she’s at home too. Jessica made it super easy, by offering transfer sessions when we pick her up, one on one training, and helpful tips when we’re feeling a bit stuck! I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact Jessica has had on Pippin. Her dedication and skill have made a world of difference, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a top-notch dog trainer. Thank you, Jessica for your outstanding work with Pippin! It’s safe to say you’ll always have a special place in Pippin’s heart as well as ours! ❤️
Jessica is a joy to work with and has exceeded all expectations. My 3 year old GSD blue heeler mix rescue was challenging and exhausting. He was anxious, stubborn, and extremely dog reactive. We went through four other trainers with zero results. When we met Jessica for the first time, she spent over an hour with us observing his behavior and talking about our challenges and goals. I could already tell by her handling skills that she was the real deal. We decided to move forward with a three week board and train. By the end of his stay, he was able to be off leash with one of her dogs! Through our continued work with Jessica, my guy has become more confident and life with him is so much easier and enjoyable.
Excellent customer service and super helpful with my dog Raven. Jessica knew how to calm my dogs nerves and it’s a complete 180 from how wild he was before signing up Jessica’s service.
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.
Sent our 5 month old puppy to a 10 day board and train program with Jessica at MDI and had a wonderful experience. Being our first dog, we knew that getting a strong foundation of good behavior was important. We got updates every 24-48 hours, and our pup came home with the baseline that we could reinforced. We appreciate Jessica and will certainly use her again.
Jessica and her team were a joy to work with with our puppy. Our goal was to have a well behaved puppy, that’s what we got after our in home boarding with Jessica. We are thrilled to have a puppy that responds to the basic commands (sit, heel, down, off). Thank you for your gentleness, consistency, & hard work with our dog.
Jessica always provides top quality training to the dogs in her program, including dogs who have been kicked out of other training programs. You can't find a more knowledgeable trainer in the great Seattle area.
Jessica is very knowledgeable about everything she does and takes excellent care of your dogs!
Good
