Dog Walkers in East Raymond, WA

About: My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm a dog trainer in the Grays Harbor area. I have been successfully working with owners to rehabilitate fearful and/or reactive dogs for almost a decade now. I have also been a competitive dog agility instructor for 7 years. My own dog is Oakley, a Miniature American Shepherd, and he helps me with fearful or reactive dog clients by being a neutral dog with great communication skills. Before becoming a dog trainer full time, I worked at a dog daycare in Mukilteo for 3 years. It was a great experience and gave me a lot of knowledge about dog behavior and handling large groups of dogs. I compete in seven different dog sports with my own dogs, but we love agility and flyball most. I am available whenever I'm not already teaching classes or at a competition. Scheduling is open as we just moved to the new area from Seattle. I am experienced with dogs who are difficult or nervous around strangers. I use scientifically backed, LIMA guided dog training to guide dogs through their feelings as gently as I am capable while accomplishing learning. In any case, I like to engage with dogs in a way that's most comfortable for them. Each dog is different! I am not comfortable taking unfamiliar dogs off leash outside of the home or yard for safety reasons, but I am happy to work on this skill with them if requested!

About: I have over 5 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including overnight stays. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and following daily routines. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medications or extra attention. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide photo and text updates for peace of mind. I work full-time but have a very flexible schedule and typically finish work around 3:30 PM. This allows me to visit pets throughout the day and provide consistent care, including walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m available for overnight stays and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining their normal routines. I’m happy to coordinate visit times based on your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I primarily provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I always follow care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. Pets are supervised, secure, and cared for in a calm, clean environment at all times. While I do have a fenced yard available if needed, my main focus is attentive, responsible, and stress-free care in your home.

“Rebecca was great! I asked for her help with dog walking since I work at home I don’t have all the time to dedicate.Not only did she walk them but she also work with my dogs on some training. I felt like she really knew what she was doing. She gave me a lot of photos and videos so I felt super secure about what happened during the walk. She also provided me with an update on how to walk went.”

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life. I feel so happy to be around them always. This is very special and heartfelt for me to care for them as often as I can. I work from home full time. I am aiming to make dog sitting a more full time active part of my day. I walk daily anywhere from 1 to 3 miles. I have a roomy apartment near a dog park that I visit often. I walk 3-6 miles a day near my home. I love visiting daily.
