About: I have grown up with animals my whole life from rodents to dogs. I have experience with labradors, basset hounds, German shepherds, Shih Tzus, and cocker spaniels. I also have had bunnies, turtles, ferrets, and I currently have 2 guinea pigs! I love all dogs, big or small! When I was in high school, I got my own yellow lab- Sedona. I trained her on basic commands: sit, stay, paw, lay down, roll over, and polite walking manors! I recently retired from the Army, and I have a flexible, part time recreation job. Mornings and Evenings are typically the best time for me to schedule, but because my schedule is flexible I can make accommodations! Whatever guidance I am given to respect someone’s home I will do! As for dog walking, I keep all dogs on a leash for their safety. I can do long walks or short- fast paced or slow sniff everything walks.

“So patient and calm with my reactive pup.”

About: My whole life Ive consistently been surrounded by all kinda of furry friends from dogs, cats, birds and rodents . Having worked in a doggy daycare I’m especially comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages. Family and neighbors have always entrusted me to walk, clean, play and feed pets and even administer medications to their pets. With my current work schedule I’m available mostly in the morning anytime before noon for dog walkings. In the evenings I’m usually available anytime after 7:30. In your home I will ensure to keep a safe and clean environment for for pet. I will feed your pets using times and instructions recommended by owners. I can administer any required medication. I will also be sure to give lots of attention and play time to your fur baby as I would if they were my own

About: I have experience with dogs of all breeds and personalities! I grew up in a dog-loving household, and have been a trusted pet-sitter for family friends and neighbors throughout the years. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and special needs pets too! I am well equipped to take care of your pup, and keep them safe and happy while they are in my care. I am a young professional living in Tacoma and am looking to fill some of my free time with animal time! 🐶 Since I currently make my own work schedule, my availability is abundant! I can be trusted to maintain a consistent feeding/walking/play schedule. I am easily reachable by phone and am happy to send photo and text check-ins.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and have basically never known a pet-free life. I grew up with my dad, who is a professional dog trainer, so learning how to understand and work with animals started early for me. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and even ferrets (yes, really) — I had two ferrets and a cat in college, and now I have two cats of my own. I regularly take care of my family’s pets when they’re out of town, and I take that responsibility seriously while still making sure pets feel relaxed, safe, and loved. I’m excited to expand my pet care and help more families feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have two cats of my own, and playtime is built into our mornings and evenings — it’s something my husband and I genuinely enjoy. We both work full-time (I’m a teacher and he works in the medical field), but during the day my mom or grandmother is home with my son, so there’s always someone around. That means pets are never left without care, attention, or a familiar presence, and I’m able to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine. Pets will be safe and comfortable in my home. We own our house and have both a fully fenced backyard and a fenced front yard, giving pets plenty of secure outdoor space. We love getting outside and regularly go on longer walks and trail excursions, so active dogs will get plenty of exercise and enrichment. Daily walks are already part of our routine, often with my son along for the fun. Inside, pets have space to relax, and I can crate a dog if needed or requested. I also have a calm, quiet area of the house for pets who prefer a more peaceful space or need a break from activity.

“Rachel was great with my pup's walk! Also was super about communicating with me when we had to troubleshoot my front door lock. Happy to rebook and recommend to anyone!”

About: Newly establishing myself in Tacoma for pet care after a decade of owning my own walking/boarding company in Seattle, working in veterinary, doggy daycare, and more. My clients enjoy my reliability, safety precautions, professionalism, and extensive experience with canine health and behavior. I love all dogs from puppies to elders, and will happily tailor my services to meet individual needs. Located in Proctor, I’m taking clients across Tacoma. I’m an artist by trade and love supplementing this work with dog walking as it gets me out of the studio and connects me with dogs, nature, and my community. There’s never been a time in my life when I didn’t have a dog. As the ultimate companion, I know how precious they are to their families, and how deeply important it is to care for each client as if they were my own. My boy, Stu, a 7 year old Cambodian pitbull means the world to me, so I make sure to offer the same level of care to my clients as I do to him.

About: (Just to clarify that headline is from Frozen.) I'm a former dog owner and I loved my elderly dog till she passed. I've also pet sat for multiple families over the last five years. I'm familiar with high anxiety dogs, dogs with diet restrictions, I've house sat for multiple dogs and cats. I also recently helped feed and home a stray mama cat and her kittens over the summer. I approach with calm, confidence and joy. Its important to me that when I first meet an animal, the critter feels safe to approach me in their own time. Some animals can be anxious so I try not to be over stimulating. I'm a care provider to a cherished family member, so I have flexibility through out the week to care for animals when I'm not with that person. My dog of ten years that passed had a special diet for a sensitive stomache, I had to wash her bedding more often. Even though she was a small breed I still took her on walks. As she entered her golden years I frequently took care of accidents, put her in diapers, took her to the doctors for her stomach and her anxiety. Gave her medicine to ease her ailments. I do the same for the animals in my care, make sure they are loved and cared for the way their per parents outline for me. Down to walks, play time and special food requirements. Our fur buddies deserve care for the unconditional love they give us.

“Anna has been wonderful! Our pup loves her and is so tired after her walk. Anna is excellent at communicating, prompt and flexible. Highly recommended Anna to care for your fur babes!”
