Pet Sitting Alki

“We are so happy we found Kelly. She has helped us on short notice on many occasions. Super friendly, reliable, takes photos and even brought in packages for us. Most importantly, the dogs seem to love her too!”

About: Pets have always been my saving grace navigating through life. I don’t cry at funerals, but when my late bulldog passed the only thing that got me through was his little sister, Connie - my little girl English Bulldog. I currently have a full time job (fly fishing industry) and am available mornings and evenings everyday, with mondays and Tuesday being open all day and night. I have one young olde English Bulldog named Connie, she’s a lover and very affectionate. We live on the beach down on Alki in a small studio. She’s my entire world, comes to work with me occasionally but prefers to lounge and nap most of the time (she’s a bulldog after all…)

“Susan was a great sitter for my two cats! Her updates were engaging and fun to read, giving information on the day’s play and eating events. The cats loved playing and cuddling with her during their visits. The cats and apartment looked great upon my return. Definitely recommend!”

“Kevin is super thoughtful and a wonderful caregiver for our cats! He took the time to meet and connect with them (and us), and you could really tell that he’s attentive to the details. He’s flexible and communicative. We trusted him with our pets and home, and would do so again without any reservations.”

About: Hi, I'm Stella! My legal name (which Rover requires me to display) is Leigh, but in day-to-day interactions I prefer to go by Stella. :) Although I've been a cat person all my life, I've also always loved dogs. Recently my family members have been adopting dogs into their various collections of pets, including a Manchester terrier who has decided I'm his second favorite person (besides my mom, and I can't blame him there!). I've absolutely loved the opportunity to care for him when my parents travel a few times a year, and will absolutely bring that same level of enthusiasm to caring for your pup! I'm primarily self employed, as well as doing gig work, so I have a lot of flexibility to give your pet the care they need on a schedule that works for you! I'm most often available on weekdays, as the gigs I do usually fall on weekends. I'm very interested in learning your pet's personality, and taking the time needed to get them comfortable with me. I'm particularly good at "cat language", but am dedicated to learning "dog language" as well. I'd also love to hear from you about your pet's likes, dislikes, preferences, and anything else I should know to give them the best experience possible!

“Wow! Grace is a sweet and kind dog lover. I trusted her completely with my dog Brody who is 2.5 years old and Husky/Lab. He was so happy in every picture and had smiles when I got home. She communicated amazingly. Knowing he is in such good hands while I was away is such a blessing! Thank you Grace.”

“On Rachel's 2nd visit with my cat Biscuit he actually hung out with her. He even let Rachel pet him. This is amazing as Biscuit never hangs out with people that come to my house. He always hides. I couldn't be more pleased and relieved. Rachel has a gift, a calm presence. I believe this is why Biscuit felt so comfortable. Thank you Rachel for taking such good care of Biscuit.”

About: From cats to dogs and anything in between— I would love to take care of your pet! I’ve been around animals my entire life. Currently, I’m an animal foster parent and I’m looking to watch some extra furry friends when I don’t have a foster in my care! I have experience with puppies and kittens, elderly pets, and medical cases. No matter the challenge, I’m willing to meet it and see your animal first and foremost as a member of your family! I look forward to meeting and caring for your furry friends! I’m currently working a full time job on a hybrid schedule. I work from home Tuesdays and Fridays which allows me ample time for flexible pet care. My weekends are typically free and I’m happy to sit and care for plenty of furry friends I’m an outdoorsy individual and I typically walk 2-3 miles a day on my own. I’m willing and able to let dogs sniff to their hearts content! For feline friends, I’m adept at reading body language and cues. I will meet them where they’re at whether that means playtime, snuggle time, or quiet time.

About: I have been a dog walker for several families over the past 3 years. I also have experience taking care of multiple different types of animals, including cats, dogs, and guinea pigs. I have done drop in care for cats and dogs for about 5 years. References available if wanted. I am responsible and look forward to meeting your furry friend! I just graduated from West Seattle High School and therefore have a lot of flexibility for pet care. I am more than happy to take the time necessary for whatever a pet may need. I provide safe and loving care to the animals I have been responsible for. I like to spend time with the animals as much as possible in order to gain their trust and get to know them better.

About: For the past eight years, I have reliably walked and fed my neighbor's dog, Daisy. I love keeping pets safe, happy, well-fed, and active during my visits! I am available all day on weekends for pet care! On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I am free after 3:00 p.m. to drop in, feed, and walk your pets. I prioritize safety by closely following your specific feeding and walking instructions. I will treat your home with total respect and keep your pets happy and secure!

About: For ten years I worked as an animal behavior specialist and dog trainer for a large humane society in New England. After that, I ran a successful pet training and pet sitting business. Although I have since made a career change, I still love spending quality time with animals and helping care for them when I can. Since I work from home any dog staying with me gets lots of attention. Pets in my care get the thoughtful attention of an experienced positive trainer who will provide a combo of activity and affection. I used to have multiple dogs and miss having pups around. I work from home from about 7 am - 3 pm everyday. Dogs get a walk before I start work, potty breaks throughout the day and another long walk after work. I do go out sometimes in the evenings, but your pet wouldn’t be alone for more than 4 - 5 hours. Since I do not have a fenced in yard, dogs get long leash walks. I prefer to crate dogs when I’m not home, but that can negotiable.

“Our 1 year old cat LOVES Sara! We have had Sara come to cat sit for the last two trips we have taken and she is wonderful with our fur baby. She is so kind and respectful and definitely loves her job. She will always be the first one we ask to cat sit!”

Abby L.

“Saghar is so great with my dog, responds immediately to any questions or messages, and goes above and beyond when watching him. My dog adores her and I know he’s in good hands with her!”

Laura Z.

“Very communicative and friendly!”

Sahily P.

“Rachel was wonderful, very thoughtful and reliable for cat-sitting drop ins. I would definitely use her again! Prompt replies, showed up when she said she would, all in all, very professional.”

“Christina was awesome! She was able to come by fairly last minute and let my pups out on the evening of Thanksgiving. She wasn’t phased by my anxious/barking pup and arrived on time. Will definitely be using her 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.

I am great at following instructions and always play on the safe side so your pet takes priority!

“Jordan did a great job with my cats. She was very responsible and helpful. She thought of things I hadn’t- like making sure she knew where the carriers were in case of an emergency and also mentioned holding onto our keys in case our trip was unexpectedly extended. Loved and appreciated all the photos and detailed updates.”
