Wow!!! Max and his team are incredible!! I took my 1 year old pup to 5 other doggy day cares and she just didn't like it. I think this is because there wasn't a consistent, calm pack leader...Max is exactly that. As soon as she started working with Max, I could tell she ABSOLUTELY loved him! Every time he comes to pick her up and take her to the dog park, she wags her tail, jumps higher than I even knew possible, and doesn't look back. She is incredibly comfortable with him and is always tired and happy when she gets back home. Not only has Max been accommodating and flexible, but he has also been a super supportive dog expert who has helped me with different things that have come up with my dog, whether it's concerning behaviors or even tips on grooming, etc. He truly cares about his dogs and will do whatever it takes to ensure their wellbeing. This kind of care is exactly what I have been looking for ever since I got my pup! On another note, I have personally seen Max at the dog park while there with his dog packs and he is super aware of doggy dynamics and knows exactly how to interact when dogs begin fighting or getting aggressive. It's so impressive! I would trust him 100% to ensure my pup is safe, which can be a tall order for my dog, who tends to be vocal and is a bit of a large personality. THANK YOU MAX AND YOUR TEAM! read more

We've continued to send our pup with Mr. Pups for the past 3 years. Max and Lewis are amazing with her and she always comes home happy and tired.

We are so glad we are able to work with them and have our pup in their pack! read more

Mr. Pups Pet Care - Dog Walkers Near Me

We met Max one day when we were socializing our puppy near a donut shop, and he stopped to ask if he could say hi. After talking with him for a bit, we could tell that he's a true dog lover and expert. Afterwards, we looked up Mr. Pup's and saw nothing but great reviews, so we reached out to have our 6 month old puppy sat while we were on an overseas trip for 2 weeks. Max and MaryKylie did a great job of asking us all of the necessary questions and making us feel comfortable leaving our puppy in their care. Fern had a ton of fun with MaryKylie while we were gone, and she seemed to lose less of her training after 2 weeks than when we had another sitter watch her for 3 days. Our only feedback is that when we were trying to get the sitting booked, there were a few times where we had to follow up with Max after not getting a response for a few days. read more

Mr. Pups Pet Care - Dog Walkers Near Me

Mr. Pups is the best dog crew in Seattle! We met Max organically at Woodland Park off-leash many years ago, and our now-6-year-old mutt Daisy has been totally in love with him ever since. He's been our go-to for occasional daycare and boarding needs, and she always comes home exhausted but smiling wide. It puts my mind at ease knowing that she's in good hands with people she adores and who completely "get" her. (It also helps that they take amazing shots of the dogs in action to keep you updated during park outings.) Thanks Mr. Pups! read more

Max and his team are the best! Very reliable, friendly, communicative, and patient with my new puppy. Its a game changer to have Max come and pick up our puppy Birdie instead of me having to do the transport to doggy daycare. Highly recommend for dog park outings, daycare, and house sitting! read more

Max and his team are the best. Max has cared for two of my family's dogs for 7+ years. His attention to each pup's needs is top notch. They live their best lives bc of Mr Pups! Plus - whenever I see him (or any of his team) at the dog park, the dogs are always SO happy. I wholly recommend this team. read more

Quite possibly the best dog walker/sitter my dog Fern has ever encountered! She is actually obsessed with Max and always has THE BEST time with him! Super responsible, fun, thoughtful and safe - I always feel so comfortable knowing that my pup is in their hands! I honestly couldn't recommend them enough! read more

Mr. Pups Pet Care has changed my life!!!!! They take my dogs to the dog park while I have to work from the office, have a spontaneous snowboarding trip and/or if a flight gets delayed. They also board them when I want to travel and be away for awhile. I haven't had this luxury in years. They will always make themselves available, are flexible and understanding. My dogs love their dog walkers, jump when they see them and smile ear to ear. They are comfortable at their homes when I am away and always come back happy and exhausted from playing all day. It is like a small family! It is a group of fun, genuine and kind hearted individuals - doesn't get much better!! read more

I am so thankful for these guys. After having multiple dog sitters/daycare plans fall through due to my long hours as a nurse I finally stumbled upon this business. It's a small business ran by a group of dog-loving friends who will come and pick your dog up and take them out for several hours to local parks before returning them safely home. My year old German Shepherd mix adores them and all the doggo friends she's able to make. They make sure your dog gets exercise, socialization, and stimulation and take safe measures in doing so. They are very skilled and experienced with numerous breeds of dogs and send photos and videos of your dog throughout the day, along with communication about how your pup is doing. I can't say enough good things honestly. If you are in the northwest Seattle area your dog will be very lucky to use their services! Special shout-out to Lewis who has been picking up & returning my sweet girl every day despite a questionable meet & greet session because Indie is very shy initially. He has worked to make her feel comfortable and safe in his hands and we are so grateful! read more

Max and the Mr. Pup's team are a wonderful group, and I am so grateful for their care for my dog Sebastian. Max, Alanna, Lewis, and Emelia were patient with Sebastian (and me), even when Sebastian was reluctant to go with them for outings. They were openly communicative with me about what was best for Sebastian-- even when it turned out that doggy daycare isn't a great fit for my guy. I absolutely recommend Max and Mr. Pup's, they'll take great care of your dogs. read more

Max and Lewis are the best! Super reliable and our pup loves them

I cannot praise Mr. Pups enough! My pup Griffey struggles with strangers and both Max and John are truly incredible with him. Absolute dog whispers! They understand his quirks and go above and beyond to make sure all the dogs are having the time of their lives, and safely! I'm so grateful to have found Mr. Pups and would give them 100 stars if I could. Max is flexible, reliable, trustworthy, gives updates throughout the day, loves our dog like we do, and takes the best care of him. He is our #1 choice, always. I would recommend Mr. Pups to anyone and everyone - no matter what type of pup you have. I don't know what we would do without them! read more

Max and crew are the best for park trips and boarding. Would recommend to anyone needing a place to bring your dog.

Max with Mr. Pups is an absolute god send! My husband And I noticed how great he was with all the dogs at the dog park, and were so excited to finally find someone who would give our dog the same love and care we do. Max has boarded our dog several times and there is no one we trust more with her when we are out of town. Since we have been in quarantine working from home, Max has been picking our dog up twice a week to take her with the pack to the park. She always runs to the door when she realizes it's "Max Day" and comes back completely tired out from all the fun. If you are looking for someone who really knows dogs and will make your pup feel right at home in the pack, you can trust Max and Mr. Pups! read more

Mr. Pups Pet Care - Mr. Pups dogs sitting pretty at the park! - Dog Walkers Near Me

Mr. Pups is incredible! My super shy pup was really skittish around guys but she quickly warmed up to John and Max. Now she whines in excitement when they come to the door. It's a miracle! I swear that these guys are dog whisperers. I've seen them at the park with their groups and they have this incredible way of managing the dogs and making sure that each is being looked after and enjoying their time. Also, talk about dependability! Max is always right on time and is super flexible if something comes up in my schedule. I could not be happier to leave my fur child in their capable hands. 10/10 recommend!!!! read more

Max and John are fantastic! Very flexible and communicative. My dog struggles with strangers, especially men. My dog knows "Max is coming" and gets so excited for his park outing. Max loves my dog for all his quirks and I am so thankful I found them! I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Pups for your dog sitting needs. read more

Max takes care of my 2 pups Charlie and Toby whenever I go out of town and I wouldn't have anyone else watch them at this point! I have to travel for work fairly frequently with last minute appointments at times and Max has never been unable to accommodate any of my requests. Charlie and Toby adore him (like all of the dogs he takes care of) and your pup will too! You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't try MR PUPS read more

Max treats our doggie with as much love and care as he does his own. He clearly knows our dog's unique personality and goes above and beyond with the care he provides regularly. I trust him completely with our pets and in my home and it makes me feel 100% better to know he is there keeping an eye on them when I am away. He is also a really lovely and laid back guy! read more

Max and his team are the absolute BEST! Our Maze has been going on adventures with Max since May 2022. She also had extremely successful boarding experiences with both Max and Bridgid. As a pandemic pup, Maze has been with us daily since we adopted her, and while meeting people and other dogs during this time, she didn't get to socialize much. Her outings with Max made her more confident, and she LOVES her park days. She also enjoyed her stay-over experiences, which allowed us to go on vacation for the first time since the pandemic started. Knowing that she is safe, happy, and having a great time, allowed us to have fun ourselves. Seeing her affection towards Bridgid after staying with her for three days, and the connection they developed very quickly was highly reassuring. Maze welcomes Max and Bridgid with kisses, and her joy in seeing them is evident. I can't imagine better folks to take care of my fur-baby. She loves being part of this pack, and so do we. If I could give a higher rate, I would. read more

my god, do we love Mr. Pups. I could leave it at that... but you should know just how wonderful these folks are. I was lucky enough to meet Max at the park when my dog was a puppy and saw just how attentive, caring, and knowledgable he is with every single dog in his pack. Not only does he treat my pup as his own, but he's always striving to teach and challenge his dogs to be the best they can possibly be. My crazy pup comes home a better companion after every trip or boarding session with Max and his team. Chef's kiss. read more

This team is the best! After taking on our very challenging puppy, Tuna, with no hesitation, they also made me feel so comfortable with their confidence in her. They truly love her and it shows! They have all become her very favorite people and she has come so far in her social skills since starting park trips with Mr Pups! The communication is fantastic and I would recommend them a million times again to anyone asking! I highly recommend them for your pet needs and we are so thankful read more

Max and his team are absolutely the best choice for dog care in Seattle. He is very responsive and kind and cares deeply about animals. He is very intuitive with dogs and knows what they need and how to take care of them. He goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of when in my home and that my dog is happy and healthy. read more

I have a scrappy Norwich Terrier named Link. When I was in need of someone to walk him during the days and also do some basic training to corral the little bastard, I was referred to Max by a friend. What can I say, he's great! Knowledgeable. Forthright. He has that mix of gentle care and stern direction which Link certainly responds well to. Max and John have mastered the art of Pet Care. Also, it's hard to be away from Link on trips and during the work days. But Max and John include me in so much of their time with him that any anxiety or concern I have is acknowledged and dispelled. read more

With out a doubt, I would want Max and John to watch my dog, Sarah, whenever I am out of town. Especially, because Sarah can be high maintenance sometimes. However, Sarah loves loves LOVES playing with Max and John. They are responsible and responsive. Whenever I had to tell them something, they responded very quickly. they also sends me cute pics of Sarah on walks. Sarah is always so excited to see them. Literally, no one else I would want to house sit or walk my dog than Max or John. So happy that I have Max and John in my life, and Sarah is a lucky girl. read more
