Tish Woods has been our pet sitter for many years. We have found her to be both highly reliable and truly caring about our pets. She always seems to fit us into her schedule, even for those occasional last-minute calls. I feel she is very dedicated to her work.
A real advantage is that she has watched our pets grow and age over time, so that she has a long-term perspective on their health and behavior. Our animals, in turn, are very comfortable with her. She has made extra efforts such as staying longer to bring an old cat inside, asking about favorite activities or treats, and reporting back on things that went well or might be helpful next time. She has endured with good cheer long written instructions and periodic phone calls from an anxious mom. I have also found her to be genuinely helpful in sharing the knowledge of animals she's gleaned over the years.

Janet's photos are spectacular. She has an incredible ability to capture the moment, and to bring out people's essence. She is one of the most expensive photographers around, but every penny is worth it. You will cherish these images for the rest of your life.
We first used Janet for our wedding in 1997. The photos are amazing and capture the joy and beauty of that day. Since then, we have done many, many sessions with janet, together with our children. Some were in her studio, some were outdoors at various locations throughout Seattle (Arboretum, Discovery Park, Carkeek Park, Golden Gardens Park, and more). Every time, the pictures were incredible.
You will be hard pressed to find a better photographer.
BTW, if you look at Janet's demo albums, you will see pictures of my kids. Aren't they beautiful? ;-)

Even though I no longer live in the immediate neighborhood, I make a pilgrimmage there as I have trusted them with my dry cleaning needs for ten years. They are reasonably priced, in a great location (with parking and on the bus line), and very fast & friendly.
I had left Seattle for a few years & upon my return, they even remembered me! They are always very friendly & I couldn't recommend a better dry cleaner.

Rite Aid is such a fun store! I love their selection of makeup, hair, and bath supplies. They always have a nice selection of gift sets to choose from during the holidays, And everything is very reasonably priced. I love the atmosphere and layout of the store, very friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to other people! There are multiple checkstands and the store layout is very spacious, so i never feel like it is very crowded as well.

I am not a fan of Cleanscapes. I work for a church that, like the rest of Shoreline, used to be serviced by Waste Management. Our garbage load really varied, and with WM we enjoyed the ability to call for a pickup when necessary. With Cleanscapes, garbage HAS to be picked up weekly - we are just supposed to alter the size of our receptacle to fit our needs. Oh yeah, and recycling service is "free" (read: included in the garbage service fee). OK, not a huge deal. Now, due to financial difficulties we have been on credit hold for the past 3 months or so. However, Cleanscapes has continued to charge us for service...even though we aren't receiving any. The response I got was "We are still obligated to collect payment as per our contract with the city of Shoreline. I believe their thinking is that because you still have our carts and the account is still open we should still receive payment." This is not just poor business practice, it is criminal.

I was sceptical about using doggy daycare, since I'd had a bad experience with Metro Dog. But my boxer is a high energy, highly athletic kind of dog and no amount of walking/running will do for him unless he can get offleash. So I tried Canine Club at the reco of my vet and she was right - its a great way for dogboy to get his ya ya's out in a safe, well supervised environment. THey really are respectful of dog-clients and their unique personalities. Rick (the pack 'boss') is firm in his management of the dogs; he gives them respect and he gains their respect. I feel very fortunate to have found Canine Club!

We have been taking our pets to Ballard Animal Hospital for about 13 years now. I have had nothing but positive experiences with the staff and the doctors. The new vet, Dr. Kung, treated our dog when he was very ill. Dr. Kung was honest, kind and realistic about treatment. Jan, who works at the front desk is understanding and helpful. The facility is a bit old school, but well kept.

I was new to seattle and had a wedding to attend on the upcoming weekend. My usual drycleaners was out in issaquah and so I would have to drive out there to drop off the items and retrieve the items. Not very convenient. I started making calls to all the top places on city search. No luck finding a place that would attend to the two suits that I needed cleaned and to the small alterations on one of the suits was going to be harder than I had first thought. Least not a place that wouldn't break the bank. Then I found Apex and was told not to worry about the cleaning and even quoted at a lower rate than all the competitors. Well the quite was off but Apex still gave me the alterations at the said price. They even got it done in a more than timely fashion. I will recomend Apex to all my friends and family for future needs and adjustment.
Pros: Stick to quited prices and hold to great customer service
Cons: none

If you want both low cost and good quality, you want Ballard Camera! They are quick and will re-do prints if you don't like how it turns out. They have a large stock of equipment, chemicals, and photo paper if you develop things yourself as well. They also have a good selection of scrap booking supplies. Parking can be an issue since they're right on Ballard Way, but it's worth it, especially if you're in a hurry. If you want even higher quality prints, go to Moonphoto on Greenwood.
