Northwest Dog Retreat is a dog boarding facility in Arlington, Washington, conveniently located at 19306 8th Ave NW and just west of Smokey Point, on a peaceful 10 acre site, owned and operated by Jessica Fleck, Nicholas Calhoun, and our dog Vincent. 

Jessica is a lifelong animal lover with a strong background in customer service and retail. Growing up she was very involved with caring for animals on her grandfather's farm and in 4-H, raising and caring for dogs, chickens, sheep, goats, llamas, and all types of other animals. She has been working in the pet care industry for over a decade along with being a dog trainer for the past 5 years. Her favorite part of working with dogs has been learning how to communicate with them to forge a stronger bond and teach her clients how to do the same. In her spare time, she enjoys hanging out with Nick, her dog Vinny, her backyard chicken flock, and doing all sorts of arts and crafts like crocheting, drawing, and painting.
