They are so knowledgeable, they make the whole process seamless and ensure everyone is comfortable and are always available for questions or concerns !

We looked at several pet sitting services when we moved to Puyallup, but Heather, owner and…read moreoperator of It's a Paws Life, was by far my favorite. She clearly has a passion for animals, evident in the way she interacts with every pet, and her past experience. From the first time we met and she came to our home to familiarize herself with our pets and their routines and medications, I was impressed with her attention to detail and her ability to connect with our animals. Every day she comes to care for them we receive an update text and picture of each one, assuring us that she has eyes on everyone and they're all doing well! It's such a relief to leave for vacation knowing that our fur babies are in such loving and capable hands. Heather administers medications, keeps an eye on any changes in behavior or bodily functions, and is a joy to work with. If you're looking for someone to care for your pets and love them like you do, It's a Paws Life is where your search will end!

I have 2 Cane Corso's. One is trained in protection work and is with me almost everywhere I go on the daily. My other Corso was adopted from an abusive situation and has trust issues. NO WAY am I willing to leave these dogs in the care of a sitter or a family member as this would not be responsible not only to my dogs, but to the public as well. I first heard about Country Kennels from my trainer and later from a K9 handler from a local PD unit. I was THRILLED to learn that they have "hands off" options in high secured, indoor/outdoor kennel spaces available for high drive and working dogs that are not easily handled by strangers. For the first time in a few years, my husband and I were not only able to take a vacation, but we were able to go somewhere without having to load the dogs up and take them along. IT WAS SOOO NICE knowing Country Kennels was there to keep our animals safe and contained while we were away! This was about 3 years ago now and we have used them several times over the past few years with NO issues! Booking is super simple and prices are straightforward. You have options of kenneling your pets together in one run or putting them in separate runs, and they even have indoor spaces for the little ones, offering a hands on, more attentive approach. I'm able to load up my dogs diet, any medications, blankets or bedding, toys and snacks and drop them off at any desired time within operating hours. I always know my dogs are safe and well cared for with Country Kennels and suggest this business to ALL my working dog friends!

We love this place and our dogs enjoy this place also. Linn, the owner, is a very caring person…read morewho loves all animals. Look at her Facebook, it's all about animals. Linn owns two places side by side. The dogs have a dog run in the center of the house. They can spend all day running back and forth between the houses. This is a very secure area. Your dog(s) spend the night uncaged in the house. They find their own spot to rest. Linn is alway there looking after the pets. Her prices are very reasonable compared to other places. I was very impressed on my first visit. Everything is so clean and well maintained. If you don't believe me, call her up and set up an appointment to visit her place. She has the credentials to back her experience. She is a member of: PSI Certified Professional Pet Sitter and a Member of the National Association of Pet Sitters. She is certified in Animal First Aid & CPR. She is also Bonded & Insuried. When you go to other places, ask about their credentials and experience, they can't compare to the "Personal & Pet Concierce". No, I don't get free boarding for my comments! Dave, Lynn, and my dogs (Quincie and Charlie).

My dogs are usually with me all the time and I am very hesitant to leave them anywhere without giving two hours worth of instructions. Yes, I'm THAT kind of pet parent. Anyways, I stopped by to check out Linn's place before I took my dogs there and it seemed like a great place and all the dogs seemed happy to be there. She showed me around all the areas that the dogs would be in and I liked that it was very much a home environment, instead of doggie daycares that seem very sterile and not like home. It really is like a little dog adventure land that they can explore the many yards and decks and different areas. After the first night I left my dogs there, I ended up staying longer than expected and having my dogs stay there on five different occasions, one that lasted 4 nights. Each time I felt more and more comfortable and really left my dogs knowing they were in good hands and when I dropped them off and picked them up they were happy -- not scared, anxious or hesitant at all. This is something, especially for my newest dog we rescued from an abusive home just four months ago and he is very timid around most people and new environments. There are also cameras you can check on your pets on, although I never downloaded the app or website. That's how comfortable I was, I didn't feel I needed to check on them. Although I appreciated the picture and video updates that Linn sent me! The price is quite reasonable, but don't forget to leave a little extra if you really appreciate the care your pets have gotten, because she works really hard for the little she charges. Especially with my dogs, I know they're a handful! She is also willing to work with you on pickup and drop-off times and she ensures you are the only person dropping off so it is easy for all involved. The extra gates also give peace of mind your dogs won't escape on accident or if they're looking for an adventure, as mine oftentimes do. Linn really has thought of everything here, and my dogs enjoy staying overnight and playing with all of the other dogs who come here. I just wish I could find a place like this in California, but I'll be back next time I'm in town and know that I can leave my dogs safely while I'm away.

She's very organized and easy to communicate with. She also has an in-depth knowledge of cats, which proved especially helpful with one of our (previously feral) cats -- who usually hides from everyone but who clearly took a shine to Colleen! I highly recommend Colleen and Menagerie Pet Sitting, and would definitely hire them again.

Your animals of all sizes and behaviors are in good hands with her. I have a 4 year old bully mastiff mix. He's generally good with people as long as his owner is there and he is not rushed into friendship. Lol Upon meeting him she gave him time time at his own pace to get comfortable with her and got him to voluntarily get into her mobile unit and tub. She gave him a great bath. His ears were cleaned, he smelled great, coat was soft and he was very happy. Cassie's deserves 5 stars not only because of her gentle approach with my dog and good service but also because she was very flexible scheduling our appointment and even was patient with me being late for our appointment from a class I had that ran late. I also enjoyed talking with her about animal behaviors, temperament and different breeds. Additionally Her mobile bath business and equipment were clean and well maintained. I'll be having her return to groom both my dogs and happy to find someone on the first experience that's mobile, reasonably affordable, provides good service and that personally like. Thanks Cassie!
