Pet Sitters in Seabeck

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!!! We took Barkley (Cairn Terrier) and Copper (Biewer Terrier) to Michelle for their first time. They both received the full treatment and came out looking amazing. We couldn't be any happier!!! Camp Union Pet Lodge gained customers for life and we will never take our dogs anywhere else! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

We had nothing but good experiences at the Camp Union Pet Lodge when it was run by the previous owner. We regularly took our oldest dog to daycare, and saw Michelle for nail trims and occasional baths. Since they left and the owner took back over, things have gone downhill significantly. They are impossible to contact over the phone, and can only be reached via Facebook Messenger. I spent a week calling multiple times a day before finally getting through. This will be a long review, because there is a lot worth mentioning. We boarded our (now two) dogs over Thanksgiving, and the following was our experience: Initially I made the reservation to include our cat, but contacted them via Facebook a few days later to remove him. I also requested multiple times that our dogs be in a larger shared kennel, rather than two separate kennels. The day before the reservation, they called to confirm we were bringing all three in. They had no record of me removing our cat. They also had no record of me requesting a shared kennel. At dropoff, we brought our own food, and well as their own bowls. Our youngest requires a slow feeder bowl for medical purposes. I labeled the bowls and included written and verbal instructions for feeding. When we picked them up, the bowls had not been touched. We also brought their own Costco dog beds, both of which were covered in urine and mud at pickup. I removed the covers, but they had been soaked through and were not salvageable. This was disappointing considering we’ve boarded them with their beds at Alder Creek and they were fine. Our dogs themselves stunk like urine and had matted spots in their fur. They needed a bath as soon as we got home. Our older dog’s eyelids were red and puffy, similarly to when he had conjunctivitis as a puppy. We’re hoping it’ll go away in a few days. We never received any updates about the dogs during their stay. At one point, I reached out and asked how they were doing. Their response was “The dynamic duo are doing great. Smooth sailing. We are enjoying having them with us.😊”. This felt impersonal, and seeing the state of them at pickup confirmed our suspicions. Lastly, they only returned one of their collars and couldn’t find the other. They searched everywhere and we ended up leaving without it. Later that day they called and said it had turned up. I really just don’t understand how it was misplaced in the first place. Overall, this was not what we expected or wanted to come home to after a stressful day of traveling. We won’t be taking them back to Camp Union. While it is more affordable than Alder Creek, we are more than happy to pay for the high quality of care there. On the off chance the current owner is not aware of the conditions in the facility, I really hope they see this review.

Best place with friendly owners and workers. I have an emotional support shih tzu and he ended up getting sick but this place helped with loving open arms, they would talk with him and holding him. Thank you Camp Union Pet Lodge. PS maybe more later.

I took my gigantic Great Pyrenees Poodle mix (Pyre-doodle) in to be groomed. He just got too big and defiant for me to bath and trim his nails. Well I wasn’t expecting anything to get done because he is a giant scared baby. However! Michelle did an amazing job getting him bathed, blown out, brushed, nails trimmed 🤗😍♥️🥳! Pricing is awesome! We will forever be a client from now on. Thank you so much for making our baby so pretty 🤩. I highly recommend this groomer. She is also the only groomer in the place so I will be calling majorly in advance to ensure an appointment time. I do not want to go anywhere else ♥️♥️♥️

I had previously worked with this business for boarding and grooming for multiple dogs I have cared for. They were wonderful to work with every time. The only difficulty I ever had was restricted windows for picking up and dropping off pets for boarding. Unfortunately from what I understand the business changed management. This time around working with them has been arduous and I will no longer be taking my business to them. I attempted recently to use them for boarding for a dog that they haven't seen before for boarding, but have seen for grooming services about a year ago. They were VERY difficult to get on the phone and I had to call them multiple times throughout the day. When they finally called me back I wasn't able to answer the phone because it was the one hour of the entire day that I was in a work meeting. They left a message saying they needed shot records for the animal emailed to them, but did not give me their email address nor did they actually confirm they had space available to board the animal. So essentially they gave me no useful information. Again I had to call them multiple times to finally get an answer from them on if they had room to board the dog on the days I needed and get their email address. After I sent the shot records they were very short in their reply message wanting to know when I could bring the dog by without any further information. I responded that I wasn't sure what they were referring to. The last time I had boarded with them they didn't need to do a meet and greet (if that's what she was even asking for in her message) and asked if their policies had changed in the last year. The response I got was not friendly or professional stating that they do require to meet the dog before booking a boarding appointment and that their policies are subject to change at any time. When I complied with their demand of a meet and greet and suggested a time that worked well for me since they failed to include any information in their response about times that worked well for them, they declined my suggested time saying the following week worked for them but again failing to give any suggestions of days or times. At this point I was hesitant to continue pursuing business with this boarder because I wanted to ensure that I had a confirmed spot at a boarder before spots filled up and this business kept pushing out when I could obtain a confirmed spot. I contacted another boarder that was able to schedule and confirm my reservation within 2 emails within 15 minutes of contacting them. Camp Union Pet Lodge was extremely unprofessional in this entire exchange. The client should not have to hound the business or work this hard to give them their money. If you want to board or get grooming services and you live close to this place, I would even recommend you drive to another business further away because it would ultimately be more convenient for you in the long run. I give two stars: one for the excellent service I received in the past, but otherwise since the new management I would give them a one star.

I board my GSD and Berner/GSD Mix with them. The Staff is very friendly and accommodating especially with my Berner/GSD Mix who is very skittish and afraid. The make sure he is in the kennel next to his sister so he is more comfortable and they take the time to sit with him to make him feel safe.

Brought my German Shepard after a last minute scramble to find a sitter after my regular one bailed out. They were great! Welcoming and friendly staff, and very accommodating.

This place is absolutely wonderful. It's so easy to make a reservation, and they accommodate later pickups and drop-offs. My dog gets playtime during the day, so I know she's getting the attention she needs while I'm on vacation. My cats get to stay together in the "free-range kitty" room. They've actually built special shelves in the kitty room to help keep my little guys safe! I never worry when my "kids" are staying at Camp Union Pet Lodge!

Had reservations for July 14, 2023, arrived at 7:50, left at 8:50 without ever seeing a human soul. Phone not answered, message inquiring if misunderstanding about drop off time not returned as of July 15th. Don't risk your vacation on this place !!

We got lucky with having this gem nearby, but if we ever moved out of Seabeck we'd still make the drive for Camp Union Pet Lodge. The staff is so friendly and so very obviously love and enjoy being around animals. Our dog started out being kenneled here, but now we take him regularly for grooming services. He always comes home smelling clean, extremely happy, and well taken care of. It's always nice when you pick up your animal from an extended stay and the staff comments on how much they'll miss him. Makes you confident in your selection of kennels.

Tina is the best! Great price, truly cares about animals and most important I know my Lola is safe with her.

Tina is the best and has an excellent approach for boarding our furry family! So organized! And so caring! She's certified for 1st aid and CPR. We are super happy to use her services for boarding. Also she walks and does home check-ins! We are using her for that too! She is our pet sitter and walker !

Tina keeps my dogs while I am out of town and takes such great care of them!! I love that they get time to socialize with other dogs their size and have lots of space to run and play!

Tina and Dave are amazing and we have been taking our dogs to them for years! They truly love what they do and it shows in how well our animals are cared for!

Tina loves all her guests and is such a positive and kind person.

Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting has been a wonderful partner in caring for our two cats, when we need to leave the area for a few days, or occasionally for a week or two. Dan is professional, coming to our home to meet us and our cats initially. We had a quick conversation, viewed the space and gave the specifics of their routine. He noted information for their emergency vet contacts, and where all supplies are located. If Dan has been booked when we were seeking a sitting date, he has a great team to reach out to, who've been able to help out in his place. Lynn sat for us recently, and did a great job. We feel lucky to have been able to rest easy, while our cats are being cared for by FDCS. It can be a big upheaval for pets, to have their humans gone for days. And so, to know that they're being cared for kindly by someone familiar, that seems ideal. This service is highly recommended!

I’ve relied on Dan to take care of my cat, Milo, when I travel. He does a great job of feeding and checking up to make sure Milo is taken care of while I’m gone. He even gives Milo his asthma medication using a special cat nebulizer. One thing I especially like about Dan is that the first time I used him, he came over to my house to meet the cat, made sure he knew which vet I used, and asked for emergency contacts. I’m glad I use Fantastic Dog and Cat Sitting Service and enthusiastically recommend him.

We've been working with Fantastic Dog & Cat Sitting for several years and recommend them highly! They're incredibly conscientious and responsive, and we know our three cats will be well cared for when we travel. 5 stars!!

Dan is reliable and consistently available. He has always called if any issues have occurred. We have appreciated his care of our two cats.

Dan, and Jeff, have taken impeccable care of my cat over the past 5 years. I got referred to them through my landlord who had used Dan’s services before. Always professional, very reliable, clear communication, and my cat loves Jeff. As most pet owners feel their fur babies are the most precious and special, it takes a lot of trust to leave their care in someone else’s hands. I’d also get photos and updates during care visits, which made me feel really good. I absolutely trust and recommend wholeheartedly, Dan and his team for the quality of care my pet and I received knowing my fur baby was in the best of hands! Thank you Dan and Jeff!

I have been using Dan’s pet sitting services for years! Dan is really personable, prompt, and professional. His staff care about our pets and we can leave town without worry. Jeff (one of Dan’s employees) has had a key to our home since 2018! Your pets will be loved and cared for. Jeff even picks up our mail and is happy to water our plants. Can’t recommend Dan and his team enough!

Dan has been "fantastic" with taking care of my cats when I have to be out of town. He's taken great care of my older cat who needs insulin shots, successfully dealt with the younger ones who don't really like people they don't know, and has been able to make space for me on short notice when last-minute trips have come up. He's even cleaned up messes that have occurred while I'm gone. Would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a quality and caring cat (or dog) sitter!

Dan does a great job!! We have two cats he has sat multiple times. One requires daily doses of insulin.

This is a wonderful service! When I made my first inquiry, Dan responded within a very short period of time. I was pleased because often responses are delayed for a while. I met both Dan and Jeff ( who would be taking care of my cats) and was impressed by their professionalism as well as compassion for pets. While I was away for 10 days, Jeff kept in touch with all his cat reports. When I came back, my place was tidied up and my cats were relaxed. I highly recommend Dan and Jeff!

Dan is wonderful; I’m so grateful when he cares for my cat! He is reliable, always responds quickly, and is respectful of my home. He clearly loves animals and is gentle and kind with my cat. I don’t worry when I have to be away, because I know that Dan is taking fantastic care of my cat!

I had such a wonderful time visiting and exploring this Pet Shop. So much thought behind every product on the shelves and you can feel the love Toni (The owner) has for her profession. I also learned that Toni won an award for Best Dog Groomer 23', which is quite impressive to have in our county. Wonderful shop to support locally! Might I add, fair pricing?

Rain and Shine has been a wonderful addition to local businesses here in Shelton. They have a great selection of goodies for animals. I come in here every other week for dog food and usually end up buying a few treats for the doggos. They are always friendly and happy to see customers come in! Thank you for the great service.

Todd and Christie are such wonderful people. They have been a blessing to me and my baby blue pup for a few years now. Todd has been super awesome to work with. My dog is always so much more happier to have a visit when I'm busy working bringing home the kibbles. I highly recommend these guys.

Christy and Todd took care of my boys for two years before I moved. This is by far the best option for you and your pets- don’t hesitate. They are trustworthy, reliable, understanding and professional. Not sure how I would have survived without them. It’s with every penny and more

For 10 months, Todd and Christy of Rain or Shine Pet Care walked my mom’s dog. My mom has memory issues and is in assisted living and could no longer walk her dog, so they took over - four times a day, every day, holidays and weekends, rain or shine. They NEVER missed. And the kindness and compassion they showed my mom was extraordinary. Frosty loved going for his walks, and would be so excited to see Todd. They are simply the best; if I could give them 12 stars I would.

Took care of my cat while I was on vacation, I got daily pictures/videos. They were highly responsive to any questions or concerns, I felt like my cat was very well taken care of during my absence. Would recommend if you need a sitter in the area!

I used them last year and they made my little doggy so comfortable while I was of town for a week for my nieces funeral. They are family oriented and kids are just as involved. Nice family! I would definitely recommend them again.

Todd and Christy have been awesome for our senior dog. Highly recommend.

I give u 5 stars in advance lol do you guys take care cats while the owners work?

Sirius Pet Care is a great, independently-owned dog-walking and boarding company. They also do cat sits at your own home. From what I have seen, they are a lot more personal and loving to their clients' pets than a lot of the other companies tend to be. What's more is they are priced very competitively. If you are looking for someone to take your dog to the park on a regular or semi-regular basis and/or you need boarding for your dog while you are out of town, or you need someone to take care of your cat while you are away, I would SERIOUSLY recommend SIRIUS Pet Care. I mean, the name alone is brilliant... (The Dog Star is called Sirius, right...? Brilliant.)

Kimberly is amazing, and sent me daily pictures of my dog, who looked like he was having a blast! I felt very comfortable leaving Zeus with her, she has very flexible availability. When my flight got canceled last minute she was able to watch my dog for an extended night, which was AMAZING and took a lot of pressure off my shoulders. So thankful for this place!!

My dog, Paisley, is a hard dog to care for because she’s pretty fearful with new friends (people or dogs). Alki Beach did a great job of learning her behaviors, asking important questions to know what to expect, offered to keep her separate from the other dogs, and if I preferred she was crated or not if she was unsupervised. Alki Beach sent picture updates throughout her stay and I love that she has a doggy cam to check in if she leaves. She walked me through her place and it was shockingly clean and sanitized- maybe even more than my own home! I would highly recommend and will be a super-user in the future!

My family and I are moving to a different state and I had to ask her to help because one of my dogs had to go in cargo and she had to pick him up from Seattle. At first it was just going to be a couple hours and then right back to the airport. But when a few things happened, like me dogs second flight being canceled, she stepped up and was able to take him for the entire night and bring him back in time for his flight the next morning. She sent pictures, let us know how he was doing, gave him his anxiety meds, and made us feel like there was a weight lifted off our shoulders. She was kind and compassionate as well as reliable. Thank you Kimberly!

Kimberly is the best!! I feel so fortunate that we met her. She is flexible and accommodating - she will pick up/drop off if needed and has watched my dog an extra day on short notice. She is very responsive and we appreciate all the photos she sends while we’re away! Most importantly, she makes sure our dog is comfortable and happy :) We have booked her several times and will continue to do so without hesitation!

We LOVE Kimberly. Our dog loves spending time with her, feels comfortable there, and gets great care. He gets walks every day, and Kimberly sends us photos throughout the day. We always feel at ease when our dog is at Alki Beach Animal Retreat. We have a high energy dog and she takes extra care to make sure to watch him carefully and make sure his needs are met. ♥️

My heeler pup who needs quite a bit of engagement and attention came back happy, healthy and even with some better behaviors after a week boarding with Kimberly. She sent daily pictures of him playing and spending time with him and was very attentive to any of my texts and concerns and made me feel very confident I had left him in good hands. Cannot recommend her enough.

Kimberly was wonderful and so caring for our puppy whose flight was delayed for two additional days due to weather. She kept in touch with me via text and sent pictures. Her home appeared very organized and clean. She snuggled with our pup who was probably so scared being away from his mama and siblings.

Kimberly watched our bunny while we were out of town for 4 days. She has exceptional work ethic, came to our home twice a day to care for our bun. She sent pictures daily of the treats and care Bun Bun was getting. She even changed the water and left treats out for our cat, which she wasn't asked to do. If you are looking for boarding or small animal care while away, Alki Beach Retreat and Transportation is the BEST!!!! We will definitely be using Kimberly in the future.

I've boarded my 1.5 year old boxer pup with Kimberly a few times before, and he's always had a ton of fun and gets to play with the other dogs! He is well taken care of and gets plenty of exercise and care! Will definitely use this service again!

Kimberly did a great job taking care of our dog on very short notice! She kept us regularly updated with pictures and we had complete peace of mind while we were gone.

I have known Wendy for a few years and have benefited greatly from her work as a dog sitter from occasional dog walking to emergency boarding. When I fell and broke my hip Wendy was the first to pick up my Sophie and take her in until I was able to come home from the hospital. She is a warm & gentle dog person and incredibly sensitive to the needs of both owners and their pets. I can’t recommend her enough.🩷🐾🩷

My golden retriever, Langdon, LOVES seeing Wendy. He is high energy and can be unpredictable around other dogs, but I always feel comfortable when he is with Wendy. She goes above and beyond taking care of him and I would trust her in any situation with him. She also takes the cutest photos to share with me while I am gone!

Such an attentive dog walker and Wendy takes the best pet photos, too! It's clear how much she loves her work and animals! She's incredibly responsible and thoughtful. She was recommended to us by a friend who also adores her. She recently watched Gemma for a few days and it is clear that she was so well cared for and had a blast! Have total trust in her ability to provide TLC to pups!

My pets love Wendy because she is enthusiastic and playful. I love Wendy because she loves animals, and takes good care of my pets and house, She is also very professional and reliable! Wendy has even brought my dog extra treats and toys! Wendy is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. She also takes awesome photos! I highly recommend her!

We highly recommend Wendy. Our pups adore her and it’s clear she genuinely loves dogs. Wendy is communicative, reliable and takes the best photos! We trust her completely, knowing she treats our dogs like her own.

Wendy is wonderful! Our two boisterous young dogs adore her. I’m not surprised, because they have wonderful adventures with her! She sees them as people and treats them as the very different individuals they are. She’s super flexible with the humans, communicates well, and is a pleasure to have in our extended, blended family.

Wendy is amazing with my senior pet, Lady! Wendy is reliable, caring, and a real pleasure to have pop in and out of our house a few times each week. I have great peace of mind with Wendy for pet care, and it is such a bonus to receive a beautiful picture of Lady after each walk, along with an update about her activities and any issues or concerns that arise. Wendy is timely, considerate, and helpful, and I feel grateful for her partnership in caring for Lady when I can’t be there.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Wendy as our dog sitter for both overnight stays and a two-week vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. Wendy clearly adores our dog, Kiwi, and always goes above and beyond, taking Kiwi on long walks and exciting adventures. One standout aspect of Wendy’s service is her incredible photography skills—her photos of Kiwi are so professional that we’ve saved many of them as cherished memories. Wendy also took great care of our home, leaving it spotless upon our return. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness make her truly exceptional. We’re already planning to use Wendy’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and talented dog sitter.

I can't say enough good things about Wendy! Our dog absolutely adores her and loses his mind with happiness when she comes to pick him up. Wendy is reliable, responsible, and goes above and beyond with her care. After each walk, she provides delightful updates and the most amazing photos. She has a way with dogs and many of our neighbors have used her services and also love her. We truly appreciate the peace of mind she gives us, knowing that our dog is in such good hands and will come back happy and tired from his adventures.

Wendy is the best! She came recommended by my friend, and I’m so glad we have her for housesitting and occasional walks. She is very communicative, detail oriented, and thoughtful when it comes to caring for our two dogs. I appreciate that she goes above and beyond by making chicken and rice when it appears a dog has an upset stomach, sharing odd behaviors she notices to confirm whether they’re normal, etc. She also handles our rambunctious puppy very well. All the cute photos are a bonus!

We have been working with Strut the Pup for over a year for walking our dog Tater. We have had a few walkers over the year and they have all been absolutely lovely to work with. They show up when they say they're going to show up, they clearly love our dog and care for him and they give him lots of play time when they drop him off. We get a walk report and a photo after each walk. Tater knows when it is time for his walker Skylar to show up and he starts sitting at the door or looking out the window when the time is near. Einat and her team are highly professional and so easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Absolutely 5+ Stars!!! We rescued a dog, Alex, ten years ago. We both work and I have Strut the Pup to walk him daily. They alway provide top quality service, are good to Alex, reliable, dog lovers and are very professional. Can't say good enough things about them! The owner, Einat, and walkers are all great. When Alex sees them and runs over to them - that is the real test. They passed! I have been a loyal customer for over 10 years and highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed! Also, they handle our 12 year dog Alex so well, are totally responsive and check in regularly - great customer service and caring! They rock!!!

I started a new job last week and daily dog walks are the single thing I've splurged on. I'm so glad I did! The intake was thorough and Einat documented everything about my dog and home. My dog instantly loved Einat and her new bestie, Dana! I've only Rover and Wag for dog walks before, and I have found many wonderful sitters there, but here are the reasons I chose Strut the Pup over a service like those: - I met Einat in person at the meet and greet, and she clearly cares about the pups and the consistency of their walks. She also replies super quickly! - The one day my dog's main walker couldn't make it, Einat alerted me and took care of everything about coordinating a replacement. Alanna knew everything when she arrived and took great care of my dog! With Rover/Wag, finding a replacement would've been very stressful, but with Strut the Pup it was a breeze! - The photos are a highlight of my afternoon -- no random "here's proof your dog is alive" photos here! My dog is my baby, and I don't know how I'd be able to handle my new job without Strut the Pup. Knowing that my dog is in such good hands and that she has a playdate with Dana to look forward to in the afternoon is absolutely incredible. I get home to a happy, tired dog every day and I don't have to feel guilty about leaving her while I'm at work. I can't recommend Strut the Pup highly enough!

Strut the Pup have been the best dog walkers we have ever used! The pickup and drop-off process was seamless every time, they are very responsive to emails, paying invoices was easy, they send pictures every visit and most importantly - our dog absolutely loved his park trips. Highly recommend if you want a happy & tired pup!

I would highly recommend Strut the Pup's dog walking services. I would especially recommend Jade, as they were always so kind and careful with my dog, who can sometimes be reactive on leash to other dogs. I appreciate the care and attention they took to take care of my dog! Definitely contact Strut the Pup if you're looking for a dog walker!

I used Strut the Pup's services temporarily while I traveled cross country for my wedding in NY and they were fantastic. I never had to ask for an update, I was emailed a detailed update immediately after each walk and it took so much stress off my shoulders knowing my dog was in good hands. My dog can be quite anxious but the walker we worked with was great with her and my dog totally loved her. Definitely recommend Strut the Pup!

Second review of 5 starts because we love Strut the pup so much! Our dog has enjoyed many walks and now has been doing off leash park adventures with STP. They keep the group small and the pack leader knows our dog so well. We ran into the pack at the park when we were there a different day and our dog ran right up to Isabel, the pack leader, and was so happy to see her. He always comes back tired and happy. We trust this group completely, even with our 85 pound Bernedoodle.

We absolutely love the folks at Strut the Pup. I feel completely confident that my dog is well cared for and having a great time when she goes on walks with them. Our walker, Dana, is attentive and kind and always lets us know how the walk went and any concerns she has- and she sends a report via email after each walk as well. When we submit requests for any changes or cancelations they are always quick to respond and answer any questions as well. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for great dog walkers in the Seattle area!

We have worked with Strut the Pup for several years now, both or daily walks and occasional overnight stays at our home. Their walkers are fantastic and the owner, Einat, is very responsive and organized. I especially appreciate it since we have an anxious Shiba who is a high maintenance to say the least! I would definitely recommend entrusting Strut the Pup with your pet and in your home.

Strut The Pup is just the best! They are so accommodating with my pups needs and all it entails to get him out the door and back. I highly recommend STP!
