Dog Sitting in Covington

About: I have had pets my whole life, starting with cats. I got my first dog of my very own at 25 and I have had several dogs since. I am comfortable with all breeds and am capable of basic training, though I am not a professional trainer. I love all animals and can care for most pets no matter the species. I currently work part time for myself and control my own schedule. I often have several days off a week and can do drop ins on days I don’t have prior work booked. I can do early mornings or later in the evenings as well as mid days. I will not be taking pets into my own home as I have my own dog with some dog reactivity/anxiety. We are working through it, but she needs time and space for that. Safety is always my first concern. I will always take the proper precautions to ensure pets are safe and looked after properly. I am familiar with dog behavior and body language and I want to keep them feeling safe and comfortable under my care.

About: I have experience working on this app since around 2017 in the Seattle metro area. I love animals of all kind and have experience with extra large to extra small. I am currently available full time. This means I will stop accepting requests at 40 hours per week. My weekends and weekdays are open for pet care. I will gladly follow all instructions left to keep your fur baby satisfied and safe while you are away during our house sittings and/or visits.

“Abigail is genuinely the best pet sitter I’ve ever hired. She was super accommodating with a last-minute booking and made everything really easy. My dog can be pretty anxious, but he was comfortable with her from the start. She took such good care of him, letting him sunbathe like he loves and spent time cuddling with him. You can tell she genuinely enjoys being around animals and treats them with real love and patience. Even one of my cats, who usually hides for weeks with new people, started coming out and hanging around her after just a couple visits. She has a calm, kind energy that animals seem to instantly trust. She was always on time, sent detailed updates, and included great photos that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. You can really tell she loves what she does and has a natural connection with animals. Super lucky to have found her, definitely my first choice from now on and I’m pretty sure my pets would agree.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dogs. From the moment we met, it was clear they had a natural connection with animals. She is gentle, attentive, and incredibly patient. Will definitely book again with Liz :)”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two of my own, so caring for them is second nature to me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that’s getting outside for a walk, playing, or simply keeping them company during the day. Living with my own dogs has made me very familiar with daily routines like feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, and paying attention to behavior or mood changes. I understand how important consistency is and take care to follow instructions closely so your pet stays comfortable and stress-free. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog the way I treat my own—with patience, attentiveness, and respect. I’m reliable, communicative, and focused on making sure both you and your pet feel at ease while you’re away I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks and drop-in visits. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits as needed. I’m available for both recurring schedules and last-minute requests, and I make it a priority to be reliable and consistent for each booking. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed at all times, stay aware of surroundings, and adjust the pace based on your dog’s age and energy level. I avoid unsafe situations like overcrowded areas or interactions with unfamiliar dogs unless approved. For drop-in visits, I follow your care instructions closely—feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure before leaving and keep your home just as I found it. I take time to build trust with each pet, especially those who may be shy or anxious, and I always prioritize a calm, patient approach. You’ll receive updates and photos after each visit so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Lora was so sweet and did a great job of keeping me in the loop and sending photos of my cats while I was out of town! It made me feel so much better knowing they were well taken care of.”

“This was my first time using Rover and having Ali take care of my cat while I was out of state was great! Ali was communicative and great with my cat! I would highly recommend hiring Ali 💯😊”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. My little chihuahua of 14 years, just passed this spring, and her brother in 2020. I still have a 10 year old tabby cat named Sam. I've loved on, bathed, groomed, cuddled and took my dogs on long walks for years. Let them come up and cuddle on the couch any time they wanted and taught them some basic training. I am currently not employed with an establishment. So I can be available any time for walks on weekday mornings and afternoons. I can pet sit on the weekends as well! I have a fenced yard that your dog can run around and play in. I can also crate them if that's something they should need/per your request!

About: With 5 years dog walking and 10 years of caring for my own families animals (chickens, dogs, and cats) I will treat your animals like my own. I have experience administering medications and can help reinforce training skills for younger and older animals. I currently work part time during the week. However my hours are flexible based on the frequency you need me to check in on the animal(s). I can do check ins through out the day and stay over night all nights of the week as needed. I will care for your pets like my own. I will come into your home and help your pets stick to their routine so you don’t have to worry about being away. I will send updates and pictures, so you can have peace of mind knowing your animal(s) are safe and cared for.

“We found Aleta because our previous kitty sitter had a family emergency and was forced to cancel on us the day before we left town. Aleta came to our rescue and was even able to meet our family that day! She listened and asked questions and we felt very good leaving our fur babies in her care. We loved seeing her detailed reports for each visit and we will definitely be hiring her again! She even brought my package in ?”

“Amanda was amazing with Sam. She made sure he got play time and a lot of love when she would stop by. I would absolutely re-book her in the future.”

“Katie did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away. She visited twice a day and spent time playing with our dog. The best sign of great care is that our dog was happy when we returned home.”

“Mandi was the best! She took great care of my cats and was totally comfortable and willing to do insulin injections. She clearly cares a lot about animals and I felt very safe leaving mine with her!”

About: I've been taking care of not just my own pets, but my families and friends since I was around 11! I got my first dog and cat around 6, and was responsible for feeding, walking, playing, and cleaning up after them at around 10. I also watch my friends cats often when they leave town, and take care of my older relatives pets when they need it! I love both cats and dogs, and I will make sure they get a lot of pets!! I'm currently living in Washington for the summer (im a student!) And so I have a lot of availability. I can pet-sit, walk dogs, or even just come and check in on your pets whenever works best for you! I have a lot of free-time while i'm here and would love to meet all of the dogs and cats I can!! (and other animals as well) I have my own family dog and cat that have been with me since age 6!! I have a lot of experience dealing with both. In your home I can feed on their schedules, change their water, play, walk, and clean litter boxes. I'll make sure that they feel happy and get lots of pets & play time!! If they have any specific medications or health issues, I will be sure to stay on top of their schedules and make sure they get what they need!!
