Dog Walking Black Diamond

About: I come from a professional dog training background, and I bring that to every visit. Much of my work has been with dogs who require more understanding than the average person has: reactive dogs, anxious dogs, dogs who are typically hard to find care for. Whether you've been turned down before or just want the best care for your pack, please reach out. Helping dogs is genuinely how I enjoy spending my days the most. On a normal drop-in or walk I: * Add mental stimulation through short training sessions and games * Reinforce appropriate boundaries so good behavior holds while you're gone * Build focus and confidence with nosework and scent games * Continue any training you're already working on, using your cues and your approach Just as important, I treat my visits like the job they are: * I show up on time, every time. * I follow instructions exactly as written. Your routine stays your routine. * I ask the questions that prevent problems later: gate and door latches, leash triggers, medication timing, what you want me to do if anything were to go wrong. * You'll get a clear update with pictures from every visit, so you know exactly how it went. I'm comfortable with medical needs and special feeding requirements. I have a lot of experience with Huskies, German Shepherds, Malamutes, Rottweilers, Pit Bulls and Labs; I'm happy to help with any breed or mix. If your situation doesn't fit the usual mold, get in touch. I'm flexible, solution oriented and usually reply within minutes. Drop-in visits, dog walks, and hikes. Available full time, including same-day and last-minute bookings when my calendar allows. Always on time, follow instructions precisely, and treat your pets like my own. Message me with any ask, my response time is usually just a few minutes. I'm well versed in meeting new dogs of all backgrounds and have quite a bit of experience working with animals where there is little room for error. Rest assured that I'm 100% committed to your pets.

“Ingrid was great! We scheduled a walk last minute for our two doggos and she was quick to respond, friendly, respectful and Hank & Shasta seemed thoroughly worn out when we got back.”

“Madison did a great job with Sampson!”

“Kacey was the perfect answer to giving our dogs a midday break while our friends were taking care of them. Kacey was the ‘dog whisperer’ and even got our boys to ‘pose’ for some beautiful photos! We are very thankful for Kacey and her loving care of our boys during their walks together. Thank you, Kacey!”

About: Puppy care, elderly dog care, and working on my Red Cross pet first aid certification. I have cared for teacup small, pony-sized, large dogs, and white faced elderly dogs that need special attention. I love every dog I met and can’t wait to meet yours! I am doing school online. I can do early mornings, late nights, or if you need me to watch your pup at home. My days are open to whenever I need to drop by When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine, providing plenty of love, exercise, and companionship, and keeping their environment clean and safe. I follow all care instructions closely to ensure your pets are getting exactly what they need. I also give regular updates (and adorable pictures) to ensure peace of mind.

“Sarah was excellent! She accepted my request last minute and accommodated changes in plans. She kept me up to date before and after visits. Sent pictures and tracks from walks. She understood the needs of my aging but active border collie and kept her active and engaged while I was away for the weekend. She made sure that my dog was fed left the lights and music on for her when she left. She met and exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend. We look forward to Sarah visiting again!”

About: Hi, I’m Ardelia! As a lifelong pet lover, science nerd, a soccer coach, and a mom, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I understand the stress of finding someone you can trust with your "fur babies," and I am here to provide the peace of mind you need while you’re away. We have Luke, our sweet 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix, and Gabe, our 10-year-old cat. Our home is a pet paradise! We have a large, fully fenced yard with professional turf, perfect for zoomies and safe outdoor play. Why choose me? Medical Experience: My senior cat, Gabe, is diabetic. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering medications and monitoring special medical needs. Total Flexibility: Life happens! Whether it’s a last-minute business trip or a change in plans, I offer a flexible cancellation policy and welcome short-notice bookings. Active Lifestyle: When I’m not coaching on the soccer field, I’m hiking the beautiful PNW trails. If your dog loves to move, they’ve found the right sitter! A "Mom’s" Perspective: I treat every guest pet with the same love, routine, and attention I give my own kids and pets. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for your fur babies. I set my own schedule so I can arrange my workday appointments accordingly around your pet's needs. For overnight or day visits, I have a fenced back yard with turf and two friendly pets to keep them company in my home. I will always treat your home and your fur babies with love and respect during drop-in and walking visits. Under my care, I will give your pets my sole attention and ensure they are happy and loved while you are away.

“Raeven is clearly gifted! She is one of the good ones. She is truly a dog whisperer. My dog, Gabby, absolutely loves her like I have never seen her behave with another person save for me and my husband. It makes my heart smile. I know she is being well taken care of and super happy. Raeven is communicative, sends pics, and clearly cares about each animal like they belong to her personally.”

“Great first experience with a drop-in and walk visit. Emily was right on time, kept communicating through the visit and sent pictures. We will repeat soon!”

Brenda M.

“Lisa is seriously the best! Not only has does she treat our pups like they are her own but she also is so flexible. We've had a few times where one of our pups hurt their paw and couldn't go for a walk. She was willing to just hang out and let the pups play while keeping a close eye on them. Couldn't ask for a better person to help us with our pups!”

About: About me: I am a Project Engineer for a construction company, we a have a little boy and a baby on the way, and we LOVE animals! We have two beautiful horses, three wonderful dogs, and two cats. Eventually I would like to rescue a few farm animals and foster dogs. One thing that breaks my heart is seeing animals in the shelter or up for slaughter. I think every animal deserves a second shot at life and I wish I could take them all on. However I have saved a few horses from slaughter and retrained them to give them a promising future! Basically I work hard to give my animals and future animals a wonderful life! In HS I was an active FFA member which gave me the opportunity to expand my knowledge from just horses, dogs, and cats to dairy cattle, goats, poultry, rabbits, and swine. I also worked for a large animal veterinarian for 2 years as a vet assistant and gained even more knowledge on how to properly care for ALL animals. Ranging from exotics, livestock, equine, dogs, and cats. So your Fur baby is in GOOD hands! At this time I am only accepting clients for drop in visits or house sitting (I do not stay the night). As we just welcomed a newborn baby into our lives. However I am available at all hours to take care of your pet needs! I look forward to working with you! I am very attentive to detail and will follow your instructions to ensure your pets are well taken care of and your home is secure and exactly how you left it 😊

About: I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily. If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. We help each other out! Only excepting smaller to medium sized dogs for new clients currently. I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!

About: I have been a dog sitter awhile and have gained a lot of experience. I have done overnight stays, check ins, dog walks, and more. I have a puppy of my own and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and more have trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, and play with them. Worked with many different dogs and various ages. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to come check in on the pups and play with them. My work schedule does change depending on the week but I am available every day of the week. I am free mornings and nights and would have time mid day to check in on the dogs. I have a fenced yard for my dog and I walk him twice a day so he can get his energy out. I would walk your dogs how ever much is needed. Additionally, I would make sure to check in on them multiple times outside of my other jobs to ensure that they are good and can be let out. I am comfortable making sure any necessary medication is given on time and that they are also fed at there normal times. I know how much pets need to play and I would love to play fetch and more with your pets!!

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, having shared my home with both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. This experience has given me a natural 'animal sense' and the ability to connect with pets of all temperaments—from high-energy pups to shy or senior cats. Beyond my own furry family (one friendly cat), I’m the go-to pet sitter for my friends and relatives, who trust me to maintain their routines, administer medications, and provide plenty of exercise and belly rubs. Whether your pet needs a long walk to burn off energy or a quiet companion to curl up with, I’m dedicated to making them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I’ll always treat your best friend with the same care and attention I give my own! Pet care is a priority of my daily routine. My mornings always start with a dedicated walk or active playtime to ensure dogs start their day happy and get the attention they deserve. Because I have a flexible schedule, I am able to provide consistent midday bathroom breaks and every few hours. My wife works for the school district so she is home during breaks and all summer. My evenings are reserved for more exercise/walks/fetch and plenty of one-on-one snuggles to wind down. I prioritize clear communication, sending you photo and text updates throughout the day so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. We live on 2.5 acres so there is a lot of room to play fetch and get lots of exercise. It’s mostly fenced so I am happy to take dogs on leashed walks if preferred. We live in a large house which dogs are welcome in and will get lots of attention from my 3 year old son. We do have a cat (Boba) which is very friendly and stays in her own room at night so dogs have the rest of the house over night.
