Julia Chalkera month ago

We were really pleased with getting our Great Dane Winnie in Boneyard Daycare! The staff has been very friendly and let me know all the details of the facility on the phone. The daycare was very clean in person, and staff was again welcoming and let me know the run down of things. My dog (who is shy) was happy to get out of the car and go back the next week!

This review is long overdue! I have been taking my dog to Martha's Garden for almost 2 years, and I cannot express enough how much my dog is OBSESSED with this place. My dog is anxious and withdrawn in most situations, but I took her in for a 1-hr assessment on the chance that this daycare could bring out her vibrant and playful side I see at home. They were very communicative about her behavior and comfort level in those first couple of weeks, which helped me feel confident about taking her out of her comfort zone. I knew I made the right decision when within only a few visits, she would RUN to the staff without looking back at me during drop off. Flash forward to the present and she thrives at this daycare. I can see such a difference when walking her in public, meeting other dogs or new people, that she has more confidence because of the socialization and enrichment she gets at Martha's Garden. Like everyone else mentions, they have a great routine of different activities every day and send you home with a cute report card so you get a little snapshot of their day. My only complaint is that always tries to go to Martha's on our walks now and I have to disappoint her every time! If you're someone considering if daycare is right for your small dog - obviously knowing that all dogs will have different needs and comfort levels - I think it is worth a shot to try this place out and it may become an essential part of your dog's life!

We came to see the “Sound of Music” troll by the Danish artist, and ended up enjoying the park just as much. Lincoln Park offers about 5 miles of trails and is one of my favourite parks in Seattle. Plenty of parking (especially in winter) and no fees required. We came to see the “Sound of Music” troll by the Danish artist, and ended up enjoying the park just as much.

Great park to let your dogs run and meet lots of others. Access to the river in certain areas, might jave to do a couple different loops to get a really nice longer walk in. Plenty of parking and it only costs $1. The machines I saw only took cash, so I had to download an app.
