Dog Walkers in Colfax, WA

“He came to our first meeting with thoughtful questions about my dog's needs, energy level, and routine, which immediately told me he takes this seriously. My dog is very high energy, and he handles him like a pro every single time. What really sets him apart is how communicative he is! He sends tons of photos every visit and always keeps me in the loop. I never have to wonder how the walk went. He's also always on time, which matters more than people realize when you're counting on someone. I'd recommend him to anyone, but especially if you have a dog that needs more than just a quick lap around the block.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11. From my dog, to my family member's dogs, I've taken them on walks, given medication through pill pockets, fed them, brushed them, played with them, and given them all the love and attention they could ever want! I'm working part time, so I can give as much attention as possible to your pets! I'll be constantly in the area, so no need to worry about your pet being alone for too long. I’ll take the fur baby (or babies) on walks, play with them, love on them, and everything in between! Any need they could have, I can meet.

About: Hi! I have been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up with many dogs and have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages. My personal current dogs are a senior cocker spaniel (Banjo) who requires daily oral medication, a hound mix (Darby) who always keeps me on my toes and an irish setter (Murphy) who competes with me in rally obedience. We also have 2 sweet cats, some fish and a very old box turtle. Additionally, I have experience caring for cats, horses, goats, small mammals and reptiles. Before COVID19, I got the opportunity to volunteer at the local humane society. I loved helping the staff care for the animals and especially enjoyed walking the dogs! I understand that pets are family and treat them accordingly. As an owner, i enjoy recieving updates so i keep owners updated with pictures and updates on how their animals are doing .

“I booked Morgan to help with my dogs post surgery. I was unable to walk without crutches. She walked them daily and did little things here and there that were probably no big deal to her but meant a lot for me! She was kind and easy to work with and my dogs absolutely love her!!”

I attend classes at Washington State University but still have plenty of time for walks and snuggles. I am available for longer stays on the weekends or during the week if an overnight stay is okay. I always monitor my dogs while they are outside because I do not have a fenced yard. Neither of my dog's sleep in crates, but I am more than willing to enforce that if needed.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I can remember! I've had experience with young puppies with zero training to older dogs/cats who may be more fragile. Aggressive animals don't alarm me and I'm always able to find a trust in the animal I'm around:) I'm a full time student but have time gaps through the week that I want to be filled! Weekends are normally very open. I can usually accommodate so don't hesistate to reach out. I often take care of my families friendly and older golden retriever that loves making friends and sleeping all day! My neighborhood is great for long walks and sometimes a good run. I'm able to take care of other pets at my home as long as they are okay with company!

“This is my first experience hiring a dog walker. I was a bit nervous about it at first but Nayeli dispelled my fears. She is reliable and competent and I know my dog appreciated it too. Nayeli sent daily pictures of their excursions. I will most certainly enlist Nayeli’s services again!”

About: I volunteered at the Seattle humane society as well as taken care of my own pets. At the humane society I worked with all kinds of cats. Over the past several years I have taken care of two dogs and a cat. I fed, bathed, and accommodated for an elderly dog named Joey who was blind and deaf for a year and a half. The second dog I took care of is a Kangal named Hank. He is a mastiff and despite his large size, he was a rescue and is very timid/shy. I have taken care of him for three years and the more time I spend socializing him the more he opens up. He still has a long way to go but his progress is commendable. Finally, I adopted a cat named Bear. His previous owner adopted both his brother and him along with having two dogs. They fought terribly and Bear was the runt of the house. When first moving Bear into my apartment he was timid and scared. It took him a while to comfortably call my apartment his home and I’m grateful he is in my life. I love all animals but I am most passionate about socializing shy or struggling animals. I am currently doing a couple classes of summer school at WSU so I am available and flexible. I am mostly looking for weekday work. I have a two bedroom apartment and would prefer not to house animals due to the small space. I primarily want to house sit or walk animals.
