About: I have experience with dog sitting for a family member on and off if they were out for the day or on a trip out of town for a longer period of time. I also sat for a friend that has both a cat and a dog. My other skills include babysitting (I have done this while dog sitting at the same time) and some experience in senior home care. For a period of 6 months, I took care of another family member managing their tube-feeding, medications, and working together with the nurse team to communicate updates, issues and check in on appointments. I do work online, currently building a business. I try to schedule my work around typical business hours (between 8am-5pm) but can adjust around for pet care sits or visits since I'm remote. I do most tasks Monday-Friday with the most availability being on the weekends, most specifically Saturdays. I am very good with taking directions on pets' needs. If they have a certain schedule or specialized regimen, I make sure to keep track and make sure the same rhythm is kept as if the owner is still with them. I also respect the ground rules of a client's home knowing that they are trusting to me by allowing me the visit. I also like learning the different personalities so I'd like to try and bond with the pets even if it's for a short time!

“Jude a great job with Percy! Prompt, detail oriented, and friendly. Percy told me he can’t wait to see him again.”

“Alison is responsible, punctual, and very positive in her approach. She managed to take a nervous puppy who wouldn’t get out of her crate up to the level where she now has a new friend who wants to share her favorite blanket. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!”

About: Experienced in day-caring and boarding dogs. Have a two year old Cavapoo at home in which I can provide a clean, safe, and entertaining place for your doggy. I walk pets as a way to relief myself from home working environment. Furthermore, interacting with pets also helps my stress relief and I am happy to keep this a daily routine. I had a cage and fence for my dog when he was a younger one, we have potty trained him and rewarded him. He was free ranged in living room and common spaces besides bedroom and bathroom now.

“Jana is the best. She has been very reliable and helpful with my senior dog on walks she has been recovering from surgery. Very appreciative of Jana’s care and professionalism!”

About: I’ve had the privilege of taking care of my childhood dog from her being a puppy to her twilight years. I have familiarity with the general caregiving tasks and engaging time someone can have with pets, but also pay deliberate attention to detail that owners can give for how to best take care of them. I am currently working on building up my work schedule with clients, so while that’s going on my availability might decrease as time passes. At the moment of starting though, I have a great deal of free time to extend to others. I’m used to monitoring and engaging with pets to a great degree, so that even when I’m not playing with them I have a mindset of monitoring behavior and noticing if there’s anything different in their environment that could cause issue. If they’re resting/sleeping I’m keen on keeping an eye on them periodically to see if they’re alright.

About: While I don’t have extensive professional experience caring for other people’s pets, I have been around animals my entire life. My family has always had either a cat or a dog, which has given me experience with the daily responsibilities of caring for pets and understanding their needs. I currently have open availability Monday through Sunday, from mornings through evenings. Since I am not working at the moment, I have a flexible schedule and am available for house sitting or dog walking for extended periods as needed. While I do not currently have any pets of my own, I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and caring environment for every client’s pet. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for while they are with me.

“Ludo, who I adopted two months ago, has been adjusting and having some accidents. Bruce has been so communicative and has cleaned up his accidents even though I absolutely do not expect him to and have not asked him to. I cannot express how grateful and relieved I am to have him coming to walk Ludo while I am working. I know my special needs dog, who has seizures, is in great hands!!!!”

About: I grew up with a Maltese-Shih Tzu mix, so I’ve had experience caring for dogs from a young age. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping up with your dog’s usual routine. While most of my experience has been with smaller dogs, I’m also comfortable caring for friendly medium and larger dogs and would love having a walking buddy! My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m completely free on Mondays! I can easily stop by for check-ins, feeding, walks, and some quality time with your pet. I’m also happy to have pets stay with me, including overnight, if you prefer a more home-away-from-home experience. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a designated pet relief area, and my neighborhood is very walkable with plenty of options for walks and outdoor time. I’ll always follow each owner’s instructions and their pet’s usual routine closely, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home.

About: I lived with my roommate’s two dogs, the sweetest Labrador and Labradoodle, for 2.5 years and absolutely loved having them around! I regularly took them on walks and cared for them whenever my roommate was out of town, so I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping dogs company while their owner is away. I absolutely love dogs and would be so happy to care for yours like they were my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and can often be available during the daytime or on shorter notice. I live in an apartment in the First Hill/Cap Hill area with a park nearby for walks and plenty of outdoor time. I’m happy to follow whatever routine or instructions you have and can send plenty of pictures and updates while they’re with me!

“Responsive, adaptive, and eased my first time booking a walker for my recent rescue.”

“Fantastic experience for mom (while traveling) and fur baby (home, waiting…) for a long weekend away. Alex did a wonderful job with our pup who was thrilled with her daily outings to her favorite parks and daily updates. Already booked for our next vacation and so happy knowing our dog is in excellent hands!”

“Erin has been wonderful to work with! Great communication on scheduling and feedback about my dogs. They loved her instantly on our meet and greet! Thank you Erin for taking care of them!”

About: I have taken care of family dogs for many years, and have raised my own two Golden Retrievers from 8 weeks old. I have always loved animals and love learning how to communicate with them. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can work with whatever requirements you have. I also live downtown with a car, so I can drive to you. I am happy to take your dog for a walk, give them pets/cuddles in your home, or play with them in your yard! I am comfortable walking multiple dogs at once (if you have more than one) or can take your pups for individual walks if needed. I will treat your animals as if they were my own!

“This is the second time we have used Akiko and for a second time she has exceeded our expectations. At the risk of making her too popular, at least amongst discerning pet parents, I cannot recommend Akiko more highly. She is a delight to work with, a delight to communicate with and the dogs are always improved when we return. That is impressive in itself because our dogs are practically perfect in every way already. ;-) In a nutshell: you would be very fortunate to book Akiko for dog walking or house sitting. Very fortunate indeed.”

“Jeffrey was very friendly, communicative and easy to work with. We are looking for someone long term and looking forward to working more with him.”

Ainsley & Zack T.

“Working with Leslie was a great experience! She was super easy to communicate with and great with my crazy Siberian Husky. It was easy to tell she had lots of experience with dogs of all types. I will be definitely be working with Leslie again 10/10 would recommend!”
