The Dog & I

We did both boarding and grooming at The Dog and I. I will admit I’m a tough customer having owned a pet products distribution company for 25 years
First the grooming… it’s not all that common to find a groomer who actually knows the proper way to clip an Airedale Terrier. Dawn did an excellent job on my Airedale as well as my Golden Retriever. I had very specific requests which she followed exactly.
Boarding. …this is not a fancy place, however, the facility comes with decades of animal handling experience which is extremely important. Dawn takes care to make sure each dog is very safe and comfortable. The dogs have secure inside kennels/​runs as well as space outside for fresh air. We always feel sad leaving our dogs. But they did fine and so did we knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Dawn and Jeff.

Dawn is a fantastic groomer, how lucky we are to have her right here. She can do a great easy-​care teddybear trim OR ramp it up and do the very specialized breed-​specific cuts with the best of them! Really great with the little dogs, I have three and Dawn takes care of all of them! She is a great stylist for mixed-​breed dogs, she really knows how to tailor a cut to the dog’s unique personality and shape. SO glad that she is here in our quiet corner of the world on the Olympic peninsula! Thank you Dawn.
