About: I’ve have taken care of pets before as I do have a dog myself and I have also looked over and cared for cats cause anytime family is away anytime I look over them. I’m currently in summer break from college and I been spending time with my dog and making sure he goes outside and I also have time to make appointments for him such as vet visits or showers. In my house we have a gate and we always the gate close so my dog doesn’t get out. I also have the a/c running most of the time so my dog could chill as summer is coming around the corner. I always make sure he has food and water.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13, mainly my own, but I’ve also taken care of friend’s and family friend’s dogs in these past 3 years, so I understand the anxiety or fear of leaving a part of your family in the care of someone that isn’t you and won’t treat your pet like you will. That’s why I always adjust and accommodate my services to every pet’s needs. When it comes to basic care of pets, I always take puppies and dogs on walks at whichever time of day that they need to go out, always making sure to bring snacks and water so they always stay hydrated and healthy. I make sure they have enough playtime inside and outside so they don’t get bored and are entertained. I understand that not every dog wants to play or can’t move too much, so I of course adjust these activities to accommodate every pet’s individual needs so they’re always comfortable and happy. I also have experience with senior care, specifically giving dogs the medicines they need at the intended hours of the day or night. It goes without saying that my main priority are the pets in my care so I also make sure to always check up on every pet at different hours and times, rarely leaving them out of my sight (while also keeping my distance if they’re resting) to ensure they’re always okay. I work part-time remotely since I finished university in March of 2024. So I have no issues with times and days that will work best for you and your pets! I care for pets in client’s homes by making sure they’re never missing anything, from food, water, toys, time to go to the bathroom, medicines if they take them, etc… I make sure pets understand I’m simply there as an aid for them and someone they can play with if they choose to! I’m simply there to ensure every pet is taken care of while also having time to play and give them their space, after all, it’s their home and they need to feel the most comfortable and safe in their own space.

About: My deep love for puppies and all pets is what makes me unique. I'm kind, compassionate, and constantly concerned with ensuring their safety, love, and happiness. Because they deserve the very best, I treat each dog as if they were family. I’m available Monday through Thursday from 6 AM to 11 AM—perfect for morning walks, playtime, or drop-in visits to start your pup’s day off right! I always provide a loving, peaceful environment where your dog feels secure and content, whether I'm taking care of dogs in your house or mine. I take great care to feed, walk, play, and cuddle them in the same manner that they are accustomed to. No matter where they are, I make sure they feel at home by keeping everything tidy, comfortable, and loving.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and around 4 years of experience caring for cats. Over the years, I’ve helped care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for turtles, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their specific care needs. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, cleanliness, and giving pets the attention and patience they deserve. Friends, family, and people close to me have trusted me to care for their pets because I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every animal like family. I understand how important pets are, and I always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I also provide regular photo and video updates so pet parents can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student, so I have a flexible schedule outside of classes and spend a lot of my time caring for my own kitten every day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m dependable, organized, and able to make time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I make sure pets always have fresh water, clean food bowls, and a clean environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and bathroom breaks when needed. After walks or playtime, I like rewarding pets with treats (if approved by the owner) and making sure they feel relaxed and safe. I treat every pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while away.

About: From a young age, I've had a special bond with dogs. My parents took in neighborhood samoyeds and newfoundlands that had been abandoned by their owners. I grew up with them, trained them, did my best to make sure their home was loving. Since my neighbors knew I was good with large dogs, I frequently dog sat for them. I quickly became an expert in leash technique, engaging play, making sure they were fed right, and just plain being there for them. I don't have any dogs right now (my apartment is way too small) but I know I'll meet that special fluffy guy when I get a bigger place. I'm available nearly all the time, as I'm not currently working and am only doing occasional volunteering in the Bitter Lake/Greenwood/Shoreline area. I have the availability of a tireless assistant! I believe in respecting a dog's boundries while also being very mindful of their needs. From years of experience I've learned to find the proper balance and give the dog the best experience possible.

About: I have loved pets since I was a kid. I was obsessed with learning about them. After my first pet died, I was very motivated on learning about how to offer pets the very best life, and this comes through research! I have worked with a variety of animals. Working at PetSmart allowed me to get a better hands on experience as it opened a door to working with cats, sick animals who needed medication, and working with large numbers of pets. This also helped me see what methods worked and what methods to avoid when taking care of our beloved pets. I have a very flexible schedule and will be available for you and your pets. I don’t have a set schedule yet due to work and school. Safety is my top priority. You know your pet best, I will work with what I have and incorporate new techniques and ideas once your pet trusts me. I have a porch that is safe meanwhile my garage is being built at the moment.

About: As an owner of two senior dogs I have learned that they need extra patience and care. I make sure the dogs are feeling comfortable and relaxed by taking the dogs outside as they need to use the bathroom and sun bath for a while. But I also like to give them plenty of time inside if they just want to rest and be pet or cuddled. It's important they get excersise too with some play time or a walk. Pet care goes smoothly with my schedule as a mom and a flea market vendor. My husband Julian does help out in every activity with our pawed guests too. We include a free walk for every day of the stay. Dogs will be taken out to the yard on demand or twice an hour for potty times. For all dogs we will provide two separate hours of play time during the day. If a dog has high energy we will play for about 10 minutes after every potty time. Some of the safety measures with my service include having a fenced back yard, being outside with the dogs until they are ready to go back inside, and having a calm and cozy environment for each individual dog or cat guest.

Cristian is great! We needed some help with lunchtime walks 3x a week for a couple months after a foot surgery, and we feel so lucky to have found Cristian. He is super communicative, took great pics every visit, and wrote up thorough notes about our girl. He is super patient with our high energy girl, and would even jog with her on some days to tire her out! We highly recommend Cristian and will definitely be reaching out to him in the future when we need a dogwalker!

About: I have two fur babies of my own that are Golden mixes and siblings. Elvis is the more active scaredy cat if you will while Priscilla loves to swim but is a huge couch potato otherwise. I also have grown up around dogs and collectively within my immediate family we own 11 dogs total of all shapes and sizes! Don't worry, they don't all live together, but they do go on play dates. That being said, I am comfortable with feeding, walking, and playtime as well as delivering medicine your pup may need. In addition, I am comfortable with watching a dog who may have separation anxiety and need full time supervision. Other animals I have taken care of are rabbits, hamsters, and fish. Being a fur mama myself, I know it can be nerve-wracking trusting someone with your baby, however, I will love your fur baby like my own! No need to ask about cuddles, belly rubs, and playtime, those are complimentary! I currently have a semi-flexible schedule to meet your pet's needs! I teach during the day (8-3:20) but am available before or after work on weekdays. I am usually free on the weekends though and update my calendar often. Your pets are my priority so I will make sure to be communicative about my schedule in advance. I like to make sure I follow the pet's routine and I make sure to give them extra love as I am sure they miss their parents! For dog walking, I will ask you about your pet's favorite walking path or generally what they like to do on walks. For dog sitting, lots of playtime will occur!

About: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and different energy levels, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine as a nursing student because spending time with animals helps me stay active, reduce stress, and recharge mentally. Daily walks help me get my steps in, and being around dogs honestly makes even the busiest days better. I enjoy giving pets lots of attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routines consistent and owners updated. I grew up helping care for my mom’s dogs and now have a cat of my own who means everything to me. I also regularly care for my mom’s dogs when my family travels to Mexico, so I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines independently. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment.

About: I just recently had a beautiful baby boy, and before him I’ve had my beautiful fur babies. I have two dogs that I love and treat as my sons. Making that a total of three sons (one baby boy,two dogs), my dogs are small but I also have had dogs that were much bigger than I am. My dog that was bigger than I was had to go to doggy heaven, but it explains that I have experience with different sizes and breeds. I love animals and would love to be apart of your fur baby’s life. I wouldn’t mind dog sitting or dog walking. Let me know if you need me, I am available more in the evening or available to schedule if needed.

About: I have taken care of family pets my whole life, no pets are allowed in my household so I have taken every opportunity to interact with and care for animals outside of my home.

About: I am an educator by training. I am looking for extra work during the summer and school year away from the classroom. I dog and cat sat and dog walked throughout college for four years. I cared for a 15-year-old labrapoodle and I cared for a 7-year-old bordie collie for a combined 5 years. I took them on daily walks, fed them according to a strict meal regimen, and made sure they were safe. The 15-year-old dog had health issues so I have experience in responding to health crisis with elderly dogs and know how to respond in case of an emergency. I am willing to commute, but have limited availability with overnight visits as I have a 19 month old and 7 month old at home.I also have experience with cats! I personally have four cats (ages 2,2, 2, and 4) who I love dearly. I’m able to administer medicine, feed, and care for all breeds and ages of cats. Generally, I do have a full-time job so pet care is part time for me. I’m saving to buy a house and go on a trip so I’m really looking for extra income. Work takes up my time during the day, but I’m available in the evenings and weekends for pet sitting. I’m also available during holidays and the summer. As of 12/2/25: I am currently not working so I have open availability. I have cats so animals need to be friendly with cats. We dog sat for a few weeks and my cats were friendly with the dogs. If the animals must stay with me, I prefer cats as my schedule makes dog walking from my home challenging. I can do drop ins!

Melanie was new to my dogs, Leo and Gigi, so I was a little nervous at first—but any worries disappeared immediately. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely kind, and my dogs clearly felt comfortable with her right away. Melanie was so gentle and attentive, always following their rhythm and needs. She also provided thoughtful daily updates after each walk, which gave me total peace of mind. It was clear Leo and Gigi were in great hands, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
