Pet Sitting Kirkland

About: I adopted two kittens and a dog, and they lived harmoniously with me for 16 to 18 years. I ensured they were well-behaved by setting clear boundaries with plenty of love. My cats were primarily indoor, but once I trained them not to run, I allowed them outside in the backyard. At the sound of a clap, they would rush back to the patio door, knowing it was time to come inside. My dog, Fendi, was also well-trained from puppyhood. I always made sure they received high-quality, veterinarian-approved food, regular grooming, and plenty of exercise and affection. I gave them a happy, healthy life. My beloved dog, Fendi, passed away on December 26, 2024, after 16 wonderful years together. I miss him more than words can express. Now, I want to offer my services to pet owners, sharing my love and care with other dogs and cats, knowing they’ll be in good hands. I am home based permanently at the moment but will be retiring in a couple of months. I am an empty nester with a lot of free time. I exercise daily and love taking long walks. I give any pet my full attention and interact with them in order to stimulate them intellectually. Naturally this will depend on the dog's character, age and physical ability. I will ensure they get to enjoy the outdoors. I have a large backyard to let the pet roam around. I will carry out any instructions provided by the owners in order to have the dog maintain his routine.

About: I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals — from Retrievers, Shepherds, Weimaraners to Border Collies, Basset Hounds to Rottweilers , Cats, and even my horse. With years of hands-on experience across all ages and personalities, I’m comfortable caring for playful puppies, energetic younger dogs, and sweet seniors who need a slower pace. I take a calm, gentle approach with every dog, reading their cues and meeting them exactly where they are — whether they need confidence, comfort, reassurance, or a little extra patience. I’m also experienced with medication routines and special care instructions, and I always handle those with the same kindness and attentiveness your dog is used to at home. My goal is always the same: to make your dog feel safe, understood, and truly at home. I work during the week, which is why I offer boarding primarily on weekends—when I’m fully available to give your dog the attention, time, and companionship they deserve. My career is flexible, though, so depending on my schedule, I’m also able to offer drop-in visits and walks during the day or in the evenings throughout the week. I always make sure that any service I accept fits comfortably around my work so your dog receives reliable, unrushed, and consistent care. I live in a bungalow with a full basement and a mudroom, so there are very few stairs — perfect for senior dogs or pups with mobility issues. If a dog isn’t comfortable with steps or has joint concerns, I can easily block off or baby-gate the stair areas to keep them safe. My home also has a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of room to play, sniff, and explore. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer time outside, I always stay with the dog — I never leave them out on their own. The yard has minimal steps as well, which is great for dogs who need extra care with mobility. When it comes to sleeping arrangements, I want dogs to feel completely comfortable. They’re welcome to sleep in our room on a cozy dog bed, and if they prefer or are used to a crate, I can set that up as well. Whatever helps them feel safe and settled is what I’ll do. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow their routines and house rules exactly — feeding, walks, bedtime habits, comfort items, and any special instructions. My goal is for their dog to feel relaxed, secure, and cared for in their own familiar environment. No matter where I’m looking after your dog, you can expect safe supervision, attention to detail, a calm atmosphere, and lots of love.

About: Hey, I’m Monica! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs and volunteered for years at a shelter, caring for pups of all sizes and temperaments. I’m active and happy to do long walks, but I also adapt to each dog’s routine so they feel comfortable at home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day, keep up with walks, playtime, and feeding schedules, and make sure they’re not left alone for long. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment in my home, sticking closely to each dog’s routine so they feel comfortable and at ease. In clients’ homes, I’m respectful of your space and follow all care instructions carefully

About: My approach centers on maintaining your pet’s unique routine, from walks and calming companionship. I am experienced in dog training, walking and care, as I’ve had my own dogs to care for for over 30 years! 🐶 💗 I’m available for dog walking/boarding on the weekends for now and in the months of July and August I will be available to walk your dog or board your dog daily! I have a fenced yard and a friendly Shihpoo of my own, so your fur-baby will be in good hands. I do daily walks for 30-60 minutes at a time.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for most of my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’ve cared for my two cats for the past nine years and also previously had a dog, so I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs and understand their different needs and personalities. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and dependable. I take the time to follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions rather than assuming every animal needs the same type of care. Whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, or simply keeping a pet company while their owner is away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can plan my day around scheduled visits, walks, feeding times, or check-ins and make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m also available for both regular weekly care and occasional care when owners are away or need some extra help. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other instructions provided. Safety is always a priority. I pay close attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, and anything else that could affect a pet’s well-being. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and allow them to approach me at their own pace. My goal is for owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet and home are being treated with care and respect while they’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have a dog and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I also have professional experience working with animals, which has made me comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, sizes and needs. I’m attentive, patient and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for. My schedule varies throughout the week, but I have availability for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting on select weekdays and weekends. I keep my Rover availability updated so you’ll always be able to see when I’m available to care for your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog at home, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule and care instructions. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take introductions slowly and can keep pets separated when needed. I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, supervision and care while they’re with me.

About: I’ve provided consistent dog care for over five years, including regularly babysitting my dad’s best friend’s dog. I also have experience walking dogs and helping multiple dog parents with daily care needs. I’m comfortable following routines, providing exercise, feeding, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure every dog feels safe and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time student and usually finish school around 5:30pm on weekdays. I’m available for evening care during the week and fully available on Mondays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I prioritize safety and follow each pet’s routine closely, whether in my home or a client’s home. I’m attentive, respectful of boundaries, and ensure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and well cared for.

We live in a very quiet and homey neighborhood with lots of green spaces and ample nature to go for a walk in. They would be joining our pets, one large dog that is incredibly sweet and accommodating, as well as the gentlest cat ever. I would absolutely love to make this stay special for you and your loved pet!

We are flexible, depending on the synergy with our pets. We usually allow dogs to be 'out and about' in the home and provide frequent trips in the back yard and walk them once a day. We work from home a lot. Our dogs play in the back yard for as long as they want daily. Usually any visitors end up tired and happy soon enough 🙂 We have a fenced yard for safety. Our two dogs are super friendly and our amazing cat is a darling. They get along with anyone!

About: Over 25+ years experience. I have been working with rescue animal adoptions for the last 18 years....SPCA, forever pets, animal adoption Montreal Quebec, Animatch, muscat dog adoption, from streets to sofa etc….. References available from all of the above organizations. I am able to care for your pet including multiple walks per day. I have a fully fenced backyard. I live alone with my husband so no kids and no other pets. Fully fenced backyard. Live a walk away from multiple parks which allows me to socialize your pet if need so. Your pet has the entire run of our large home.

About: I grew up with animals in the home and I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience! I also have the energy levels to keep up with even the highest energy dogs. Aside from a few hours during the week, I work from home. I can adjust my schedule for the most part to ensure every pets needs are met. I live in an apartment with plenty of nearby parks to take them to play. My building is very safe when it comes to other animals being well behaved. I also don't take on multiple pets so your pet will receive all the attention it needs. When I'm pet sitting in your home I like to follow a similar routine to what your pet is used to. In terms of eating, playtime, going to the bathroom etc. That way while you're away they feel more comfortable and safe.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I was 5 years old! I absolutely adore all dogs— all shapes, breeds and sizes🐾 My grandfather has taught me a lot about dogs, he went to dog training and dog school for years. My mom followed along in his footsteps… owning dogs for most of her life. I have a 13lbs Cotton de Tulear that I love with all my heart. She is my everything, my world, my universe… (I’m sure you can understand my craziness here lol). I have thought my dog to walk off leash everywhere (streets, parks, with other dogs, etc). I trust her with my life and I know she trusts me equally as much. I will take care of your precious doggies/kittens as my very own little baby🥹 I speak English & Français! I’m currently working part time as a licensed hairdresser so I have lots of free time to give to your lovely fur babies! My availabilities are pretty flexible, just message me, we can work something out😁 I currently have 3 babies at home— a dog, a cat and a bird! I always ensure my home environment is safe and cozy for them🫶🏻 Before leaving for work, I fluff up their blankies and put on some relaxing meditation music so they feel safe and comforted once I leave the house. I have many coats/sweaters/boots of different variations for multiple weather temperatures to accommodate my baby so she can walk rain, snow or shine (even though she rather not get her feet wet in the rain🤣🥲) If your dog has any sensitivities, health conditions or allergies please let me know! I take your dogs health and wellbeing as an absolute priority🚨

About: Malheureusement je ne peux pas avoir de chiens à la maison, mais j'aime bien les chiens qui ont besoin de bouger. Les chiens qui aiment les grandes marches et qui aiment jouer ne s'ennuieront pas avec moi et seront probablement épuisés avant moi! À l'adolescence, je m'occupais à l'occassion des chiens de 1-2 voisins lorsqu'ils partaient en vacances. Je travaille de la maison 3 jours par semaine, cela peut donc donner plus de flexibilité lors de ces journées. Autre j'essaie de réserver mes week-ends à la famille, donc habituellement moins de disponibilités ces jours-là. J'ai un chat à la maison, qui ne sort dans ma cour cloturée que sous supervision (il est trop peureux de toute façon pour sortir seul).

About: EN/FR Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been around dogs of many different breeds, both growing up and through pet sitting, including Pit Bulls, Chihuahuas, Huskies, German Shepherds, Miniature Shih Tzus, Beagles, Dachshunds, and many more. Over the past three years, my partner and I have completed numerous house and pet sits while traveling around the world. This experience has given us the opportunity to care for dogs and cats with a wide range of personalities, routines, and individual needs in many different environments. House sitting has now become a full-time lifestyle for us. I am also comfortable administering certain medications (depending on the method of administration) and place great importance on respecting each pet's routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away. --------------------- Je suis entourée d'animaux depuis aussi longtemps que ma mémoire me le permet. J'ai eu des chiens de plusieurs races dans mon entourage, à la maison ainsi qu'en garde, notamment des Pitbulls, Chihuahuas, Huskys, Bergers allemands, Shih Tzus miniatures, Beagles, Teckels et beaucoup plus. Au cours des trois dernières années, mon conjoint et moi avons réalisé de nombreux gardiennages de maisons et d'animaux pendant nos voyages à travers le monde. Cette expérience nous a permis de prendre soin de chiens et de chats aux personnalités, routines et besoins très variés, dans différents environnements. Le housesitting est devenu un mode de vie pour nous maintenant qu'on le fait à temps plein. Je suis également à l'aise d'administrer certains médicaments (selon le type d'administration) et j'accorde une grande importance au respect des habitudes de chaque animal afin qu'il se sente en sécurité, détendu et aimé pendant votre absence. EN/FR We manage our own schedule, which gives us a great deal of flexibility throughout the week. Since we both work remotely and have made house and pet sitting our full-time lifestyle, our daily routine naturally revolves around the needs of the pets in our care. Born and raised in Montreal, we've been together for over 10 years. Our years of house sitting have taught us how to quickly adapt to new homes, respect each family's routines, stay organized, and handle unexpected situations with a calm approach. When we're not working, we enjoy cooking, spending time outdoors, staying active, watching movies, and continually learning new skills. This balanced lifestyle allows us to provide pets with plenty of companionship, affection, and attentive care while their families are away. --------------------- Nous gérons notre propre horaire, ce qui nous offre une grande flexibilité au quotidien. Nous travaillons tous les deux à distance et avons fait du gardiennage de maisons et d'animaux notre mode de vie à temps plein. Nos journées s'organisent donc naturellement autour des besoins des animaux dont nous prenons soin. Originaires de Montréal et en couple depuis plus de 10 ans, nous sommes habitués à nous adapter rapidement à de nouveaux environnements et à respecter les habitudes de chaque foyer. Notre expérience de plusieurs années en housesitting nous a appris à être organisés et à gérer les imprévus avec calme. Lorsque nous ne travaillons pas, nous aimons cuisiner, profiter du plein air, faire de l'activité physique, regarder des films et continuer à apprendre de nouvelles choses. Cette routine équilibrée nous permet d'offrir une présence attentionnée, beaucoup d'affection et du temps de qualité aux animaux qui nous sont confiés. EN/FR We exclusively offer pet sitting in our clients' homes. We believe pets are happiest and most relaxed when they can remain in their familiar environment, surrounded by the routines and comforts they know. Our priority is to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (when required), and all the little habits that help them feel safe and comfortable. We also treat your home with the same care and respect we would our own. We believe good communication is essential, so we're happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos while you're away, giving you complete peace of mind. If you have any questions, we'd be happy to answer them and discuss your expectations so you can feel completely confident entrusting us with your home and your pets. --------------------- Nous offrons exclusivement des services de garde à votre domicile. Nous croyons que les animaux sont généralement plus heureux et détendus lorsqu'ils restent dans leur environnement familier, où leurs habitudes et leurs repères sont préservés. Notre priorité est de respecter votre routine autant que possible : heures des repas, promenades, jeux, médication (au besoin), ainsi que toutes les petites habitudes qui contribuent au bien-être de votre compagnon. Nous traitons également votre maison avec le même soin et le même respect que si c'était la nôtre. Nous aimons maintenir une bonne communication avec les propriétaires en donnant des nouvelles régulières, accompagnées de photos ou de vidéos, afin que vous puissiez profiter de votre absence en toute tranquillité. Si vous avez la moindre question, il nous fera plaisir d'y répondre et de discuter de vos attentes afin que vous puissiez faire un choix en toute confiance.
