Doggy Day Care Admiral

“Rachael was able to take my pup last minute after another sitter cancelled on us. She was so great with our very energetic pup. Thank you so much for the time, care, and attention you provided to Harlan! Would definitely book again!”

About: Dedicated dog lover - whether your furry companion is a playful youngster or a distinguished senior, they'll receive my full care and attention during their stay. Currently, we have no dogs, so your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one time. Our home provides a warm, comfortable environment where your dog can relax and feel safe while you're away. All guests must be potty trained. I look forward to meeting your canine companion and making their stay a tail-wagging experience they'll love! I work part-time from home, and will be available for dog walks, belly rubs and backyard excursions throughout the day. My flexible schedule ensures your pup will get plenty of exercise, affection, and outdoor time while in my care. I have a fenced yard, love taking walks with dogs - whether that's one longer walk or multiple shorter walks, whatever it is they need.

“What a great experience. Things were kind of complicated because I was attending a conference & needed doggy daycare on an irregular schedule. Matt was absolutely flexible with that & even picked Bloo up & dropped him off at varying locations. I got numerous photo & text updates throughout the day. But most importantly my elderly dog Bloo had a really good time & was very well cared for.”

“Maria is fantastic - friendly, communicative, attentive and accommodating. Our little Frenchie can be a handful and Maria took such good care of her, making sure to keep us updated and reassuring us while we were away. She took extra efforts to insure her home was safe for our dog, which was so appreciated. Bebé had a great time…pretty sure she didn’t miss us at all. We hope to have Maria watch our pup again soon.”

About: I have been a dog parent for 3 years now and am trying to spend more time taking care of dogs and cats in my spare time. I'm currently working part time and since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility with my schedule to walk dogs, do home visits and board your beloved pet. I live in an apartment complex that is right next to Hiawatha Playfield and if your dog loves walking in the parks, this is an amazing park that my dog Oliver loves visiting every day.

“Ollie always has the best time with Beau and Mellow! We feel so comfortable sending our boy to Beau's and he comes back happy, healthy and tired from playing, every time!”

“I would say Pickles had a 12/10 great time at Kim's daycare! He is a high energy puppy and he came home each day happy and exhausted. Kim took lots of photos and action shots, so cute. He is always so excited to go back and see his friends!”

“I had an emergency come up and needed someone to watch my dog last minute, I reached out to about 10 sitters and only 1 was available and more than willing. Ro made the entire day about my dog, a day that wasn’t even planned, took him for walks, bonded with him, socialized him with other animals, just above and beyond. An incredible human being.”

Sam M.

“Mimi is, simply, The. Best. Ever. !!!!! We love her flexibility, warmth and professionalism. So happy we found her and Tribble to be Kenji’s dog sitter.”

About: I offer a highly attentive, adaptive, and active environment for your dog, backed by over nine years of dedicated, hands-on experience. Raising my own dog, Toby, gave me a deep understanding of complex canine needs. He was reactive, which taught me how to read body language, advocate for a dog's space, and safely manage environments so he could still enjoy a life full of hiking and cross-country adventures. As he aged, I gained extensive experience in senior care, navigating his slowed pace and confidently managing canine epilepsy, including precise medication administration. In addition to caring for my own dog, I have a long history of pet sitting for family and friends. Whether your dog is an active adventurer who wants to hit the trails or a senior who prefers a quiet day on the couch, I tailor my care to their specific pace and personality. What Sets Me Apart: - Proximity to Alki Beach & Trails: We love taking dogs on outings to nearby Alki Beach or local hikes, making us a great fit for high-energy dogs who thrive outdoors. - Deep Respect for Boundaries: Because of my experience with a reactive dog, I never force interactions. If your dog is anxious, selective, or uncomfortable in crowded spaces, I strictly respect their boundaries and keep them in environments where they feel safe. Full-Time, Double-Coverage Remote Care: Both my husband and I work from home full-time. Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches, and our schedule allows for flexible potty breaks, frequent walks, and constant companionship. We are a true dog-loving family with a safe, secure home environment designed to give you complete peace of mind while you are away. We no longer have a dog at home so your best friend will be the sole animal in the home. We live in a townhome with a small, unfenced patio area.

“Amazing! Very responsive and communicative - Lorrie messaged me photos, videos, and kept in contact throughout the day to let me know Birdie was safe and having fun. I highly recommend 😊”

About: Hi, I'm Thuy ("Twee" or Nikki). Former social worker and teacher, now a stay at home mom working part time on my art program for neurodiverse children. Animals are my other love! I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child, but more so recently after leaving my career. As a stay at home mom, I have the extra time and attention to care for your pet. And I will love them as they are a part of my family! Since we don't have pets, Rover has been the next best thing to happen for us. I am at home full time 7 days a week. If I'm not doing home duties, I am spending time with my kids outside. I have two boys ages 5 and 7 who I homeschool. They are sweet boys and love animals as well. We'd love to have a companion to join us on our walks and small adventures (if that's their thing). Otherwise, staying in is so nice too - we love doing art, making food, and having company at our cozy home ❤️ We have AC for the hot summers for added comfort. I have most experience with small and medium dogs that require gentle care, administering medication, and providing care for their special needs. I am at home full time 7 days a week. My husband is a small business owner/chiropractor with very flexible schedule so if I need to run errands, he takes over. Someone is always home so your pet will never feel alone. Providing safety is essential in building trust and a good relationship. Providing the environment for rest and play is secondary but equally as important. I strive to make every pet comfortable in our home, respect boundaries, and cater to their specific needs.

“t was Punky’s first day with Kelly, and she made us feel very comfortable from the very beginning. Punky is happy and tired, so we know she had a wonderful day with Kelly and her furry friends. Thank you, Kelly! We’ll see you again soon for sure.”

“Tomas is a great host! Very accommodating for my two senior golden retrievers on short notice. Excellent communication and a warm atmosphere. Will absolutely be booking again. Thanks Tomas!!”

About: We have experience with dogs of various sizes, personalities, and breeds. We own dogs and also care for other people’s dogs. We will provide your dogs with the same love and attention that we give to our own. We can offer a walking service around the neighborhood or take them to a nearby dog park. We are a family of four (2 humans, 2 dogs), so your dog will never feel lonely. Our dogs are medium-sized, friendly, and love playing with other dogs. Our apartment building features a pet relief area and a dog spa, enabling us to offer bathing services if needed. Additionally, I speak Russian. Please let me know if you have a language preference for communication with both you and your dog. We are available for daycare daily and for boarding on weekends. We are happy to host your dog from after 5pm on Friday until Sunday night or Monday at 8am. We also provide a pick-up and drop-off service for an additional $50 (round trip). We reside in a pet-friendly community, equipped with several pet beds and a crate if necessary for safety. Your pup will be treated as part of our family during their stay. I’m working from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible (in case your pup needs to follow a specific schedule). Your pup will never stay alone :) I live in an apartment complex in SLU, we have a pet relief area on the 40th floor and Denny Park is also located across the street :)

“Alexander did great with Damian! Even picked him up and dipped him off. Will definitely book him again.”

About: Hello! Thank you for considering me to care for your pets. I grew up on a farm, so I have spent most of my life surrounded by animals. At one point we even had five dogs as a part of our family! Caring for animals has always been one of my greatest joys. As an adult, I became a proud foster fail and cat mom to the sweetest senior black cat. Caring for her gave me experience supporting a senior pet through the unique challenges that come with aging. Although we said goodbye to her this past year, she'll always hold a special place in my heart. I currently foster with the Seattle Alley Cat Project, where I help care for cats who are waiting for their forever homes. I especially enjoy working with shy, fearful, and "spicy" cats, and I love earning the trust of animals who just need a little extra patience and understanding. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or reserved and cautious, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll treat them with the same kindness, attention, and love that I'd want for my own pets. I am currently a student in online grad school with an asynchronous program. Because of this, my schedule is very flexible so I can work with your schedule very easily. In my home, I have a fenced back yard with grass and also a shaded deck. Inside, my home is clean with wood floors and it's pretty spacious. For home visits, I am happy to do short check-ins, but since my school is online, I am also happy to bring my laptop and stay and hangout with your cat or pup for awhile longer if you would like to if I have time. I always accept more cuddle time.

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including raising three of my own from puppyhood. I'm comfortable with training needs, exercising pets, administering medication, and the special needs of puppies and seniors. I have extremely high standards for the people I choose to care for my pets, and I hold myself to those standards when caring for others. Leaving your pets doesn't have to be worrisome or stressful when you know they are receiving quality care under a watchful eye. I provide safety and affection for all animals and would be honored to help care for your pets when you have to be away. I am currently going back to school as an online student and have an extremely flexible schedule. I'm available for drop ins, walks, and boarding in my home seven days a week. Drop ins and walks can occur between 6AM- 8PM. When I do drops in and walks at your home, your pet is with me and under my watch the entire time. I am happy to follow any rules you provide. For boarding in my home, I have a fully fenced back yard with a designated dog potty area. Even though the yard is fenced, I supervise all outside breaks to ensure your pet's safety and security. I do have two dogs of my own, both females, and currently only board female dogs. One of my dogs is a 15lb rat terrier mix, and the other is a 70lb lab mix. Both are well socialized with animals and people, and are accustomed to other dogs being in our home. I constantly monitor dog energy levels and body language to ensure breaks are taken when needed and that your pets don't experience overstimulation.

About: ​I’ve lived alongside animals almost my entire life...from cats and dogs to ferrets and chickens. Having cared for animals at all stages of life, I will strictly respect any accommodations your pet needs. I also know how hard it is to leave them! So whether your pet has endless zoomies or is a total couch potato... they’ll be safe, understood, and cared for exactly as they are. 💛 I work a balanced schedule of WFH and in-office hours. My availability reflects days that I am either off-work or can be flexible and WFH. You have a guarantee that I will be able to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout listed days. I have a non-fenced 800 sq-ft townhouse on a pet-friendly shared lot. Care in home (both in my home and your's) is negotiable and based on your preferences! In my home, your pet will be allowed on furniture and will be supervised during potty breaks outside. Please specify any crating preferences. (You will need to bring their crate and supplies with you.) I have a small, 13 y-o chihuahua mix who does well with other pups and may be in the home at the same time, if not with his spare humans! Potty breaks throughout the day. Walks usually occur in the afternoon unless otherwise specified.

“Ren had sooo much fun hanging out with Marni (& piper) on Alki! I think they were OUTSIDE more than they were inside, which was JUST what he needed...”
