Dog Walking Bayside

“Mishie has been absolutely amazing with Bella! She is always on time, communicates incredibly well, and keeps me updated after every visit. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. She pays close attention to Bella’s needs, even adjusting their routine when the weather is too hot to safely walk. Instead of just skipping the outing, she made sure Bella still had enrichment and attention. She has even incorporated some training into their time together, which I really appreciate, and surprised Bella with a few new toys out of her own kindness. Knowing Bella is with someone who is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in her well-being gives me so much peace of mind. Mishie goes above and beyond, and I couldn’t ask for a better dog walker. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since 2016, gaining years of hands-on experience and developing a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and well-being. I hold a special place in my heart for senior dogs and am deeply committed to providing them with comfort and a loving forever home. In 2020, I rescued my beloved Annie, who became an irreplaceable part of my life. Earlier this year, she sadly crossed the rainbow bridge, leaving behind a legacy of unconditional love and companionship that continues to inspire my dedication to dog care.I take great pride in being a responsible, attentive, and compassionate caretaker. My goal is to ensure that every dog in my care feels safe, loved, accepted, and well looked after, especially during times when their owners are unable to be present. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my highest priorities. 🐾 I work full time; however, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to dedicate time, attention and care to your furry friend. I am available to take your friend on regular walks, provide drop-in visits, and closely monitor their well-being when you are unable to do so. My priority is to ensure that your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout the day, receiving the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I live in a well-maintained apartment that has been fully dog-proofed to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for furry friends. The space features large open windows and skylights that allow an abundance of natural sunlight to fill the home, making it an ideal setting for dogs who enjoy relaxing and sunbathing as my own Annie once did. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate trained and find comfort in it. Dogs are welcome on the couch, as I believe they should feel at home, relaxed, and included during their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, secure, and welcoming environment where your dog can feel comfortable and cared for at all times.

About: I’m highly experienced in caring for a wide variety of dogs, including elderly bernese mountain dogs, anxious english bulldogs, territorial pomeranian puppies, cuddly golden retrievers, playful pitbull mixes, and more! I’m an expert at customizing my care around the personality of your canines. If a dog is anxious and shy, I’ll take them on a less busy route for our walk and watch their comfort level closely. If your pet is energetic and doesn’t get along well with others, I’ll avoid other animals when we’re out and give them lots of playtime! If your dog just needs cuddles on the couch and someone to administer their medicine, I’m more than happy to do that as well. I’ve taken care of multi-dog households many times, and it’s always a pleasure. I'm currently unemployed and have a wide-open schedule. I'm available for whatever you need, seven days a week. I can stay at your house for the day or overnight if you prefer. I'm also available for multiple drop-in visits throughout the day. I follow the rules of the home I'm visiting. Whether you prefer shoes on or shoes off, I'll respect your preference! I also stay in communication with pet owners. I'll keep you updated on your animal's well-being and be alert for signs of concerning behaviors or health problems. I always pay attention to each animal's specific communication style and respect their needs. I speak in a quiet and comforting tone of voice to keep pets calm and make them feel as safe as possible.

“Hailey is a fantastic communicator. We do weekly walks, twice a week and the pups love her.”

“Cedric did a wonderful job with my nervous Cattle Dog and she warmed up to him quickly which is not common! He is kind and considerate and trustworthy and I look forward to having him walk Misty again soon!”

About: I’m a small business house cleaner looking for some furry friends to join me on a walk! I’m a life long animal lover and former dog owner. I’ve walked dogs on and off for the last 10 years. I’m currently a small business house cleaner with a schedule of 3-4 days a week, 3-6 hours a day. I go on a 3 mile walk every day. I have a fenced yard and no pets of my own. I am a house cleaner so I have experience in trusted relationships with clients and their homes and pets.

About: In our previous home in Missouri my husband and I frequently pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors. We moved to Washington January of 2025 and have missed the furry friends we cared for there. I have experience with large and small dogs including some elderly and some very high energy. I’ve also looked after cats, individuals and larger groups including groups with various feeding needs. I work virtually and can be available most week days for daytime pet sitting in homes that have consistent internet access or drop ins a few times a day. On weekends my availability varies but I can typically plan for drop in and overnight care with at least 1 week notice. I am married and may request my spouse be allowed to stay with me or drop by in longer term sitting situations. Whether it’s a walk or a week together I’ll try to treat your pet with the same care and attention you would. Allowing you to feel comfortable while you are away. As a pet sitter I try not to disrupt your furry family member’s typical schedule as much as possible. Pet care is very individual so I try to conform to what that pet is familiar with to minimize anxiety for them, while making sure their basic needs are met.

“My fur baies loved Sara! She took the time to get to know them and gave them extra loving while I was away. Sara frequently sent pics and updates during her visits. Definitely booking with Sara again 🙂!!”

About: Caring for pets of Greater Seattle! I have cared for both young and senior dogs (Golden Retrievers, Husky, Beagle, Corgis, Shitzus, Terriers, Yellow Lab, German Shepherd, Australian Cattle Dog) and many cats. I have a strong love for animals and know just how important they are. My priority will always be to make sure your pets are well fed, have fresh water, and get the attention and exercise they need. Aspiring to be a full-time pet caretaker. I offer house sitting, in-home pet sitting, and boarding for cats, dogs, or any furry friend :-) I am dependable and hope you choose me to care for your furry friends ❤️ Please let me know if you have any questions and feel free to email me at ninapm(at)uw.edu. My schedule allows me to stay with your pets all day during the week, keeping them company and tending to their needs. I am available for both house sitting and drop-in visits! I care for pets as if they were my own, paying close attention to their needs and behaviors. I always prioritize their safety, ensure they are well-fed, and that their tails are wagging!

“Marlene goes above and beyond walking my dog and making sure he is well taken care of while I’m away at work. She is a great person to work with!”

“Logan has been walking my strong and sweet teenage pittie boy for the last couple of weeks. I use him for dog/breed education and of course, I adore him. So I am picky. I am thoroughly impressed with Logan. It is evident that she is familiar with dogs, their behavior and training. She is consistent, patient, very communicative, and passionate about taking care of the pups in her care. I would definitely recommend her. It provides significant comfort to know your pet is in good hands.”

“Jocelyn is so great with our dog! Our lab has some funny habits, so it’s always great to find a match that works so well. She came a day early for a meet and greet, was on time and had great walks with our girl. Jocelyn was always very communicative as well, which we appreciated very much. Can’t wait to book more walks in the future! Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve had a passion for animal care since I was small. I have 2 of my own and have gained more knowledge from working in a kennel environment. I do currently have a 8-5 job throughout the week so I would prefer if drop offs/pick ups were between 7am-7:30am or after 4:30pm and on. I love taking care of dogs that I will do it outside of my employment which also entails taking care of dogs since I work in a boarding facility. I care for pets like if they were my own pets. Also following directions that the owner may have, and giving updates whether it’s a message or a photo to give the owner peace of mind while they are away.

About: Licensed & Insured dog walking business, run by pet CPR & first-aid certified dog daycare professionals. We practice polite leash manners using positive reinforcement only! We have experience managing low to moderate reactivity and helping shy and anxious pups gain confidence. While we are not certified trainers ourselves, we do work with them regularly and have learned a lot from watching them. Our primary goal is making every walk a joyful and enriching experience for every dog in our care 💜 We are a relatively new business, so have lots of availability currently, but we are growing quickly and that won't be true forever. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. We can't wait to strut with your pup! Pet care is my life and my joy! I work 5 days a week at a wonderful dog daycare with my business partner, and we have very different schedules so we can accommodate morning, midday, or afternoon walks, no matter the day. We have enough regular business that we have experienced just about anything a walk around the neighborhood can throw at us. For most walks and drop-in visits, we want to maximize the time your dog spends outside. We are pretty quick to get harnesses and jackets on so we can get out the door. Locking the door behind us is part of the routine so you know your home is safe even when we are out on a walk. We like to know where cleaning supplies are located, so we can get accidents or spills cleaned up. We are happy to refresh your pet's water bowl after the walk, feed them a quick lunch/treat, or get in some play time or snuggles on the couch! We do not enter rooms without permission and are always respectful of your things.

“Thank you Ethan for taking care of my boys on such short notice!”

“Victoria was amazing! She was our first experience with Rover and made leaving our dog feel less scary! She was responsive and patient. Highly recommend.”

About: 2026 update. My lap is nearly always occupied by an 11 year old black cat named Darth Vader. He is bold and social with people, cats, and dogs. Then theres our oldest, Mimi, a 13 year old black cat who is much more timid. Thumbs, our polydactyl calico floof is 6 years old now. Thumbs also hides out often. Both girls have come out of their hidden spots once used to guests. I’ve been around animals as long as I can remember. For many years I had large dogs, pitbulls and mixes. Most of my pets have started off as rescues, but all became loved family members. Our dogs have all crossed the rainbow bridge, but that didn’t remove my talent, passion and care with canines. I currently work part time in Mukilteo. My profession will take priority for roughly 6 hours a week. I do not work overtime, nor on weekends. This seems like a strange question. I care for my pets by feeding them, making sure they have water, cuddling and loving them, walks, and sometimes just naps together.
