Dog Sitting Bothell

About: I've been an owner of several animals including dogs, cats, tortoises, birds, hamsters and fish, and I have some experience training dogs. I have also pet sitted dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, fish and other pets. I'd love to hear what are your pet's particular needs and be your pet'd favorite vacation spot. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend playing outside with your pet, giving them belly rubs or taking them in walks in the neighborhood. I have a fenced yard with grass and plants and a friendly dog to keep your dog company. I also can go to your home to spend time with your pet.

“Mary did such a great job caring for my cat. She sent lots of updates with many pictures. She also helped us out by watering my plants and taking the garbage out. Your pets are definitely in good hands.”

“Jovian was fantastic! She took such great care of my two cats while I was away. Great updates throughout the visits. Will definitely be rebooking with her!!”

About: Hello! I'm here to offer your pet a calm, confident, and deeply experienced presence while you're away. My journey in animal care started when I was ten, and I've spent the years since dedicated to raising and caring for countless pets—from tiny new litters to graceful seniors. This long history has given me a deep and rare comfort level with animals; honestly, I've become almost more comfortable with pets than I am with people! What this means for you: Your pet's individual well-being is my mission. I don't just follow a schedule; I work hard to understand every animal's unique quirks, likes, and dislikes to ensure they are truly happy and relaxed in my care. 🌟 My Top Skills & Experience 1. Expert Behavioral & Stress Management I have professional experience working at a dog hotel, where I was formally trained to recognize and respond to subtle signs of stress, anxiety, or illness. I treat this training as my number one priority, ensuring a smooth and low-stress experience for your furry family member. 2. Complete Life-Cycle Care I am proficient and comfortable caring for animals in all stages of their life, from boisterous puppyhood to the gentle, sensitive care required by geriatric pets. If your pet requires specialized attention—whether it’s slow walking, gentle handling, or medication administration—you can trust I am ready. 3. Grooming & Hygiene Confidence My experience includes trimming, bathing, and small grooming tasks, meaning I can keep your pet tidy and comfortable during their stay. Best of all: I am not grossed out by any messes or slobber! Accidents happen, and I am very good at cleanup—I handle it efficiently and without fuss, so your home stays clean and your pet is never stressed by the situation. 📝 What to Expect When You Book Me A Detailed Consultation: Before the first service, we'll review every detail of your pet's routine, including their personal quirks and triggers. Constant, Clear Updates: You'll receive consistent updates and photos, giving you complete peace of mind. A Dedication to Comfort: My goal is to make your absence as smooth as possible for your pet. I believe a happy pet is one who feels understood. I look forward to meeting you and your amazing companion! At this time, I do not offer care in my home. All care will be done in your pet's environment to ensure they have the most comfortable experience while you are away.

“Hitha was great with our four cats, very friendly and they seemed comfortable around her. She listened to all special care needs and communicated well. She took our request on a last minute basis when we were going on a special trip out of town and a previous sitter didn’t work out, so she really saved us! Would highly recommend her services.”

Linnea M.

“Jade did a fantastic job taking care of our cats. She was very diligent about making sure their feeders were working and very patient with our shy kitties. Would absolutely hire again.”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for years, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have 6+ years of hands on experience in dog daycare, boarding, walking, and training, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities, ages, and needs from playful puppies and high energy dogs to seniors and pups who need a little extra patience and structure. When your dog is in my care, my goal is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to follow their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, cuddles, and individualized care not just a quick check-in. I’m comfortable with feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, enrichment, and all the little details that help your dog feel at home. I also understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow your instructions and adapt to what works best for your pup. Your home is your dog’s safe place, and when you’re away, I want to keep it feeling just like that. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in experienced, caring hands. I’m currently available for drop-ins and dog walks during the following hours: 🐾 Tuesday–Thursday: 8:00 AM–3:00 PM 🐾 Saturday–Sunday: 6:00 AM–8:00 PM I’m flexible within these time windows and happy to work around your pup’s usual routine whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, a little exercise, mealtime, medication, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m here to help! I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll make sure your pup gets the care and attention they’re used to. 🐶💕 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, and playtime. I treat every client’s home with the same respect I would want for my own. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety before leaving. I also keep an eye out for anything unusual and will communicate with you if I notice a change in your pet’s behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. With 6+ years of professional dog care experience, including daycare, boarding, and training, I’m comfortable handling a wide variety of personalities and needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

About: Do you have an energetic dog that needs a lunchtime walk while you're at work? Do you have a cat who needs cuddles while you're traveling? Need a pet sitter for the holidays? Is your pet shy and needing a gentle and understanding sitter? Let's connect and chat about how I can help you give your pet the best care possible! I've grown up with dogs for my whole life and have lived with cats off and on throughout the years and love animals of all kinds. I have one dog of my own, a sweet 7 1/2 year old golden retriever who loves to play fetch and give kisses. I also have previous experience volunteering at my local animal shelter giving cuddles to the older dogs, walking the energetic pups, and taking the long term shelter residents out on day trips. As a pet sitter, I'm comfortable caring for energetic pups as well as more skittish pets that need gentle, patient care so they feel less anxious while you're away. Walking dogs on my lunch break is also such a joy to me as a remote worker because it gets me outside for a breath of fresh air. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets when you travel and that you want the best care possible for them, so I provide my clients with updates on their pets' activities and as many photo updates as you'd like. I'll often text a quick update after each visit/walk such as if you're pet ate or not, if they went potty on their walk, if their walk was affected by weather, any treats I gave, and any notable events (such as chewing up a toy, a potty accident in the house, any vomiting or unusual stools, etc.). When pet sitting, I will also do a light sweeping/vacuuming of home's common areas and take out the garbage so you return to a fresh and clean home. I work from home full time so my schedule is pretty flexible for lunch time dog walking or drop in visits during my breaks. For cat care in my home, this means I will be home each day and your cat will get plenty of interaction. I only offer care in my home for cats. I have one 7 1/2 year old golden retriever who is very sweet and loves all cats but is afraid of dogs. For in home cat care, I ensure there are no toxic plants in my home and cat proof my living space. I offer drop in visits for dogs and lunch time dog walking services as well.

“XUEYAN was fantastic with my two Pomskies, BOBBY and 小八! She arrived right on time and sent plenty of pictures during the visit, which I really appreciated while I was away. She even went above and beyond by cleaning up the balcony for them — such a kind, unexpected touch. My pups were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend XUEYAN to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

About: I’ve had and worked with dogs my entire life, from small to extra large. They’ve all come with different personalities and challenges. I enjoy learning about each dog’s strengths and weaknesses. At the current time, I will be starting a new job soon, so I am only able to walk early mornings and late evenings. I also have a recurring client between 10-12 am. I have a fenced yard and all my dogs are fairly apprehensive about new people and are mostly neutral about other dogs. Because of this, I won’t do in-home pet sitting.

“Brianna did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was away. She went out of her way to vacuum litter that accumulated over time. Highly recommend her!”

Sarah W.

“Hannah was wonderful with our dear older cat Triggie! She has kept us up to date every day with pictures and notes. Every day we have had relief knowing that he was in great hands!”

Joan R.

“Maggie was terrific! We definitely will book with her again!”

Mary H.

“Marysa was so amazing, and took such great care of my kitties and home while I was away for an extended trip. She was great with communication, and I had no worries about my girls while I was gone. Highly recommend Marysa!”

About: Hi! I’m Alex. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve owned and cared for pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve also spent time working with rescue animals, which has given me experience from a variety of backgrounds, personalities, and comfort levels. I’m naturally patient and calm, especially with shy, nervous, or slow-to-warm-up pets. I’m happy to give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable, and I’ve found that even our more hesitant guests tend to warm up pretty quickly. Sarah and I work together with boarding, walks, and drop-ins, so there’s usually an extra set of hands and eyes available when needed. Whether it’s getting outside for a walk, playing in the yard, sticking to a feeding or medication routine, or just hanging out on the couch, my goal is to make each pet feel safe and comfortable while they’re with us. Boarding Includes: ✔ Safe, clean, climate-controlled home ✔ Fresh water at all times ✔ Feeding according to your pet’s normal schedule ✔ Frequent supervised potty breaks and outdoor time in our large fenced yards ✔ Playtime, enrichment, and appropriate socialization ✔ Plenty of affection, cuddles, movies, and music ✔ Clean bedding sanitized between guests ✔ Routine medications and injections when arranged in advance ✔ Photo and/or video updates Owners must provide food, treats, supplements, medications, and any specialty items their pet requires. Bathing, grooming, and transportation may be available for an additional fee. We do not take guest dogs to dog parks. Highly reactive dogs or significant flight risks may have exercise limited to our secure yard and structured enrichment. 📋 Booking & Scheduling Your pet will be staying in our private home, not a traditional boarding facility. Meet-and-greets, drop-offs, and pick-ups are by appointment and must take place during the agreed-upon window. Please communicate as early as possible if you expect to be delayed. 🏥 Health & Behavior Requirements We cannot accept pets who: • Have a contagious illness or parasites • Have a history of aggression or biting • Experience severe separation anxiety involving prolonged distress, vocalization, or destruction • Cannot safely be left alone for short periods • Have escape behaviors that cannot be safely managed Pets must be current on legally required vaccinations and flea/tick prevention. Please disclose all medical conditions, medications, behavioral concerns, anxiety, bite history, or escape tendencies before booking. Undisclosed medical or behavioral concerns that create a safety issue may result in the stay ending early without refund. 💊 Medication & Veterinary Care Routine medications and injections can be administered at no additional charge when written instructions are provided. Medications should be clearly labeled and in their original containers whenever possible. If your pet becomes sick or injured, we will contact you as soon as possible. If urgent veterinary care is necessary and you cannot be reached, your designated emergency contact must be authorized to make decisions on your behalf. Veterinary expenses are the owner’s responsibility. I cannot not held liable for any preexisting conditions your pet may have. 🤝 Meet & Greets Meet-and-greets, drop-offs, and pick-ups are conducted outdoors. Because this is our private residence and past theft incidents, we do not offer in-person home tours. FaceTime or virtual tours are available upon request. 🧼 Cleaning & Damage Normal accidents are expected! However, excessive cleaning, repeated indoor accidents, bathing, laundry, or property damage may result in additional charges. Owners are responsible for significant damage caused by their pets. 💲 Rates Rates reflect the level of individualized care provided as well as Rover’s service fees. Thank you for trusting us with your pet! Our goal is to give them a safe, comfortable, enjoyable stay while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 Walks & Drop-Ins For walks and drop-ins, we treat your home and property with the same care and respect we would our own. We follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secured, clean up after your pet, and leave your home as we found it. Visits are tailored to your pet’s routine and may include walks, potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, medications, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and companionship. We’re also happy to bring in packages or handle small pet-related household tasks when requested. Your privacy and security are important to us. We only access areas of your home necessary to provide your pet’s care. ⭐️ By booking, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to the policies above. ⭐️ I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured care, and plenty of time to get outside and have fun playing in the yard. My mornings usually start around 5:30 a.m., but if your dog likes to sleep in, I’m happy to keep things quiet! Throughout the day, there are plenty of breaks between meetings for outdoor time and what I like to call “pawty time” equal parts potty breaks and playtime. If your pup prefers a more relaxed day, I have a comfy couch and multiple dog beds throughout the house for lounging and naps. After work and into the evening, we wind down with dinner, a movie or TV show, a few more pawty breaks, and then head to bed. During waking hours, there is always full supervision for your pet. Our yard is fully fenced, Odin or other guest dogs are always separated while enjoying any high value food, treats, or toys. My partner and I work diligently to keep your pet healthy, safe, and happy during their time with us.
