SUBJECT: Rainier Dog Resort & Spa – Renton, WA
Trip Generation Memo
TENW Project #2024-098
This memorandum documents the trip generation estimate for the proposed Rainier Dog Resort & Spa tenant
improvement project located at 900 South Grady Way in Renton.
Project Description
The proposed tenant improvement project includes a change in use to convert an existing 7,290 square foot
(SF) building to a dog daycare/boarding facility that was formerly occupied by a gym. The facility is planned
to include a total of 52 kennels used for dog daycare and overnight boarding operations. A project site
vicinity map is included in Attachment A.
Trip Generation Estimate
The weekday daily, AM peak hour, and PM peak hour trip generation credit for the proposed dog
daycare/boarding facility and prior gym use was based on methodology documented in the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition for LUC 565 (Day Care Center) and LUC
492 (Health/Fitness Club). It should be noted that while the latest edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual
does not specifically include a category for a dog daycare/boarding facility use, it was assumed that the
operations of the proposed dog daycare/boarding facility are similar in nature to a traditional daycare for
the purposes of this trip generation estimate.
Adjustments to the trip generation estimates were made to account for pass-by trips which are made by
vehicles that are already on adjacent streets and make intermediate stops at the site en-route to a primary
destination (e.g. on the way home from work). The pass-by reduction is based on studies of day care facilities
documented in the appendices of the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition. Table 1 summarizes the net
trip generation associated with the project. The detailed trip generation estimates are included in Attachment
B.

To support our assumption that operations of the proposed dog daycare/boarding facility are similar in nature
to a traditional daycare, results of a 2010 PM peak hour trip generation study conducted at Doggy Haven
in Bothell (a similar dog daycare use) yielded a weekday PM peak hour trip rate of 0.79 trips per dog suite
(kennel). This trip rate is identical to the weekday PM peak hour trip rate documented in ITE for LUC 565
(Day Care Center). The counts and trip rate calculations from the trip generation study conducted at Doggy
Haven are included in Attachment C.
