I treat dogs like they are my own children!

I offer various specials depending on the length of your stay, the needs of your dog and the time of the year. I also offer discounts for multiple dogs. Feel free to ask about my current specials when sending me an inquiry. I offer pick up and drop off of your pet. I have an extensive knowledge of how to care for all different kinds of dogs, including those with special needs. My care includes daily trips to the dog park, walks twice per day, baths (if needed) and, of course, a lot of love! I have a three bedroom home with a fenced in backyard, so your dog(s) always have access to the outdoors. I will follow your expected care to the letter and be sure that your dog is comfortable and happy the entire time we are with them! I am a true dog lover who puts the pets best interest first. Since I understand homesickness, I am willing to sit in my home or in yours.

I offer sitting in my home but, because I understand that some pets get homesick, I also offer sitting in their home, so that they are as comfortable as possible! I am fun, active and trustworthy. I am a true dog lover and treat my own dogs as if they were my children. I treat any other dog in my care the same way! I have always had a passion for animals and had their best interests at heart. I go to a dog park at least once a day. I love to take my dogs to visit the staff at our local Petsmart and Petco (who know them by name, haha.) Our house is filled with a variety of toys, treats and other dog stuff! I would love the chance to make your dog(s) part of the family for the period that they stay with me!

I have loved dogs since I was a child. As a dog sitter, I am able to experience so many different breeds and personalities. It's so much fun to play with and care for various breeds, and the feeling of knowing that I have made the dog as well as the owner comfortable and happy. I have dealt with dogs of all sizes and various breeds. I have cared for disabled/special needs dogs, including a dog with only 3 legs, a dog who was paralyzed, and a dog who was blind AND paralyzed.

I would like to know any special care instructions, the dog's personality, and any preferences that the dog has related to attention, play, walk time, sleeping habits. The better I know your dog, the better I can care for it! I have no breed preferences, I love dogs of all types.

Yes.

Yes. I have plenty of experience medicating dogs.

As much time as possible! Unless I have a specific reason to need to leave the dog alone, I would be with them at all times. I try to involve my dogs in as much of my life as I can. Generally, there is always someone home. I live with my boyfriend and our schedules work around each other very well.

I have a large, fenced in yard. There is a sliding glass door that opens to a large deck that has stairs down into the yard.

Unless your dog has a specific place you'd prefer for your dog to sleep, he/she will sleep on the bed cuddled up with me! We also have a large sectional couch, a guest bed and various dog beds. Bringing your dogs bed from home (if they have one) does tend to help them feel more comfortable- even if they don't use it!

We go to various dog parks at least once per day, weather permitting. One is in the Everett area that is filled with trails. It is a forest setting with plenty of trees, and a lot of room to run. We also go on a morning and evening walk that is roughly 2 miles each time. This walk will take place in and around my neighborhood. Depending on the exercise needs of the dog, we walk Greenlake as often as we see fit.
