Dog Walking Colfax

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 . At this time i can offer drop in visits to check in on and care for your animals at your home. I offer discounted rates(per pet) for multiple pet households! Please contact me with any questions. New to rover clients can use this discount code to get $20 off your first booking: KEELEK13506. I look forward to meeting you and your animals. I currently work part time Monday through Friday and take classes with my dog some evenings. I am available most days to do drop in visits or walks around my work and class schedule. Please check my rover calendar to see my availability. I care for dogs, cats, and other pets in their own homes, where they feel the most comfortable. I will follow all instructions given by owners to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe.

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: My name is Mikayla Sires and I absolutely love animals! I have a plethora of experience providing care for a wide range of dogs, including elderly with special needs, puppies, and breeds of various sizes and characteristics. I am available for dog walks, check-ins, and dog boarding/daycare. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and very loved! I have a spacious home perfect for your fur babies, especially considering I don't have dogs of my own. I do have a toddler and we would need to do a meet and greet to ensure it's a good fit. Please reach out if you have any questions! Dog walks and home visits are flexible, but boarding and daycare are best Thursday - Sunday. However, I can definitely accommodate other days! I am available Christmas and New Years for all services. I limit the amount of dogs I accept at once time to ensure I'm providing adequate time and attention. I would love to take your fur babies for walks/runs if boarding with me! There's a beautiful trail nearby that I frequent.

About: I’ve owed and been apart of the pet life for years! I have watched numerous family pets while they were away on vacation and that was always the best part of house sitting. I strive to keep your four legged friend happy while seeing and smelling the world. I’m working part-time and I’ll have plenty of time to keep your best friend busy while you are away. I am a marathon runner so staying active is what I love! I have a fur baby of my own and boy is he the king of the house! He gets special treatment with special food, supplements, we spend time training, and he’s always happy and healthy! I promise to treat your fur baby with the same love I provided my own.

About: I have had both dogs and cats in my home my whole life. I am currently a WSU Pre-Vet student. My world revolves around my pets, and I will make sure your pets feel the same. 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.

“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.”

“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!!”

“Allison has been walking my reactive pup, Bodi, for several weeks now. Because of Allison's gentle and calm demeanor, Bodi was comfortable with her right away. She has experience with reactive dogs and listened attentively to my specific instructions on how I manage Bodi's reactivity. She applies her experience, intuition and knowledge of dog body language to keep him under threshold. Allison is a treasure and I wish she could be Bodi's life-long dog walker!”

“Flexible schedule with walking, and my dog was very comfortable with her! I would definitely rebook her services again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs & cats since I was very young and enjoy it! I have been relied on by many with their own pets. I have been trusted to feed, walk, board and bathe many peoples pets. I currently work full time for King county parks department Sun-Wed so I am available during Thur-Sat! I can also be avaible for walks after work! I have a dog if my own and want to care for your pet as my own, with love and care. Your pet will be well cared for. Depending on what you need I can walk, feed and love in your pet.

About: As an incoming 1st year vet student, I have devoted over 8000 hours to veterinary medicine. This has given me experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, including young puppies, senior dogs, fractious cats, and medically complex pets. Additionally, I am a dog foster and have recovered medically complex pups from intense surgeries/traumas. Given those experiences, I am comfortable administering medications both orally and injectables, as well as recognizing signs and symptoms of illness. As well, I have a behaviorally complex German Shepherd of my own, and feel comfortable recognizing and avoiding triggers, or safely deescalating situations if they arise. I currently work at an emergency vet with varying shifts, including some overnights, weekends, and evenings. This also means I have many days I can spent my time exclusively with your pets to get some energy out during the daylight! I welcome the opportunity to discuss my schedule during your trip specifically! After a lifetime in veterinary medicine & kennel assistant responsibilities, I’ve learned the ins and outs of pet safety, especially with behaviorally complex pets. I am happy to work with each pet specifically to cater to where they feel best- whether that be crated, on the couch beside me, or anywhere in between!

“Very reliable, patient, and willing to work around my schedule. Great to have such an amazing person on Rover!”

About: I have taken care of a variety of pets for multiple years. i have experience caring for dogs cats and hamsters. i am a home body so i’ll always be available for your pets. This summer, I am taking summer classes and watching dogs because I love pets and needed to fill my day with something I enjoy and thought spending time with animals would be the perfect way. My home is very comfortable i have a lot of fluffy blankets that let’s like to lay on as well as a window for sun bathing and living room to play in.

About: I currently work at a local veterinary clinic and have been taking care of my direct family's dogs full time except in my recent years away at school and my extended family's whenever I was available. I have been gaining experience with cats in my summers at the clinic and have some limited experience with my family's however I'm happy to gain more! Any other kind of animal you have I would be happy to care for given proper instructions. I currently work from 8-4 at the clinic Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I spend occasional weekends away however if scheduled in advance enough your pets will always be my top priority. If I am away my parents take care of our dogs meaning your pets will be my top priority for the duration of my care. I also have lots of experience with animals, gain more every day, and study them.

“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: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.

About: What sets me apart is my background working in a veterinary hospital, which gives me hands-on experience recognizing health concerns, administering medications, and caring for animals with different needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or medical attention. I pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and always keep owners updated with messages and photos. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have experience working in a veterinary hospital and caring for my own dogs, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and monitoring pets’ health are second nature to me. I am very active and enjoy being outside, so I love incorporating walks, exercise, and quality time with pets into my day. I make sure every animal in my care gets plenty of attention, structure, and consistency. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. With my experience working in a veterinary hospital, I am very comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness and ensuring pets stay healthy and happy. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, exercise, and plenty of attention. I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and feel secure whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their own home.
