About Laurelhurst

Dog sitting in Laurelhurst, what it actually looks like

Laurelhurst is the affluent waterfront peninsula east of the U-District, jutting into Lake Washington. Large single-family homes on tree-lined streets, the historic Laurelhurst Beach Club on the lake, and Children's Hospital anchoring the south edge. Family-stable, premium-residential.

Laurelhurst sitters skew affluent-family with the largest yards in central Seattle outside of Magnolia. The breed mix favors large breeds: Labradors, Goldens, Standard Poodles, plus a steady Cavalier presence. Lake Washington access for swimming is a strong feature for water-loving dogs.
