"We leave our big dog Killer every year with the fine folks at Pet Ponderosa. He is pampered and groomed and is always happy to come and visit the staff. I have not had any bad experiences at this kennel. It is sanitary and better yet the staff all care about doing a great job. I would highly recommend this wonderful accommodation for your pet."

"She absolutely loves doggie daycare and simply howls with happiness"

"We are loyal customers of Pet Ponderosa for the past three years. We drop off our dogs with peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. Nancy, Regis and their staff are friendly, experienced and professional when interacting with each other, their customers and the animals. They know our dogs’ names and personalities. More important, our dogs know them and are calm when we drive into Pet Ponderosa’s welcoming property. When we pick up our dogs, they are clean and healthy. The facilities are well maintained and provide plenty of space for our large dogs. With Pet Ponderosa, we do not worry anymore about taking long vacations."

"Thank you for all that you do for us all year long"

"The first time I took my dog to Pet Ponderosa she was very shy. She would go to no one. Regis would go into her kennel and talk to her. She would go to him which was very unusual. Because of their loving care I have been using Pet Ponderosa for the last 5 years."

"This testimonial is for my two dogs Fish and Scarlett. Fish says he loves all the special attention he gets at doggy daycare. He gets matched up with the perfect play group for how he feels that day. Fish says he has made many new doggy friends. Scarlett says she likes day care because she can play and be rowdy, but at the same time she is learning good manners and how to be with other dogs. That's important things to learn when you are still a puppy! As for their master, she loves the peaceful evenings at home when the dogs are all tuckered out and ready to cuddle up for a nap after a busy day at Pet Ponderosa."

"Thanks for taking such good care of Bella"

"Words can’t fully express how grateful I am to the people at the Pet Ponderosa, my daughter got married and moved to Australia last year. We did not want our dog to make that trip and 6 months of quarantine because of her age and meds. The problem is that I travel about 50% of the time and need to kennel her. We were devastated at the loud and cold conditions of other kennels. Discovering Pet Ponderosa really gave us peace of mind that our dog would be cared for in a clean, friendly and active way. I have found that the folks at Pet Ponderosa treat our dog so well, that she really enjoys going there. She’s always happy and clean when I pick her up. I know they pay attention to her because of the stories they recall to me. I really appreciate how willing they are to accommodate her individual needs, such as, her own bed, feeding, exercise instructions etc… Pet Ponderosa gets a five star rating from us!"

"Our relationship with Pet Ponderosa began when our Border collie, Mickey, age four months, came into our lives! We decided a “day off” from his high energy level would be good for us, and a socializing time for him. What started as a short term plan on our part has turned into a wonderful 4 year relationship that has helped us through family emergencies and vacations knowing Mickey was cared for, and that he was comfortable and safe in a familiar surrounding with Nancy, Regis and the great staff that lavish him with love. We have appreciated the high standard and professionalism that is the constant goal of Pet Ponderosa- so much so that we’ve asked the Jacksons to be “guardians” of our cherished dog in the event something were to happen to us."

"Bogart is our 6-year-old black lab. He has been going to daycare at Pet Ponderosa since September ’07 and absolutely loves it. His tail begins to wag wildly when we turn off of the main road and by the time we get to the driveway, his excitement has almost overwhelmed him. He is barking and his entire body is wagging with the anticipation of soon playing with his friends at Pet Ponderosa. Each morning we are met by a smiling, and friendly staff person. They always greet Bogart happily and he is very happy to see them. It is obvious that everyone at Pet Ponderosa enjoys working with animals. They seem to care about Bogart as much as we do. It makes it easy to leave him for the day, knowing he is in such loving care."

"My name is Buddy K. I moved to Puyallup a little over 2 years ago from Kansas where I had a backyard as big as a farm. And, a dog park just 3 blocks away that I had been going to since I was 6 months old and a day care center where everyone knew and loved me. When I moved to Puyallup, I missed all of my friends. I was very depressed and got very fat because I wasn't getting the exercise I used to get. But one day, my mom and dad found Pet Ponderosa. Nancy and Regis (the FABULOUS owners) gave them a tour of the facility and shared their expertise of caring for pets. My mom took me there for a trial run and I had a BLAST! I got to run back and forth with other dogs outside in the dog runs. Then I got to make friends in day care. Pet Ponderosa has several fenced areas to play in and a room indoors to play in when it is really messy outside. And, when it gets warmer outside, my new furry friends and I get to play in the pool and chase water from the hose. I LOVE PET PONDEROSA. And that's not all! Pet Ponderosa is a full service resort. When my mom and dad go out of town, I get to stay there. I get my own kennel and my own bed. It's warm in the winter and nice and cool in the summer. And now they give me baths and do my nails. For 5 years, no one could do my nails unless I was knocked out (by anesthesia) each time which was bad for my stomach. I'm so happy that I have a new place to go to that people love me when my mom and dad go away again. And, sometimes my mom just brings me for a day of fun so I can run off pent up energy. My mom knows I love it there because my tail always begins to wag when we turn down 204th street. Follow me to Pet Ponderosa! You'll be happy you did."
