Dog Walking Ellensburg

About: I’ve taken care of family pet since I was 16 and could drive. I would pet sit/house sit for my grandpa and her 2 dogs, I also dog and cat sat for my aunt I only work a couple of days a week and I’m wide open besides that for the moment. I am starting college in the fall but there shouldn’t be to much difference in availability. I love all pet and understand the importance of treating a pet with the utmost love. I will follow any instructions you as the owner puts in place, you can rest assured that your pet will be taken care of!

About: I have been a cat-owner and dog-owner since I was about 5 years old. Additionally, I have help to care for others pets, from family to friends to community members. I am quick to learning a pets' habits and preferences, doing whatever makes them and their parents most comfortable. I've helped care for puppies that are still in training, old dogs with younger siblings who have varying energies, and cats who need daily medicine and attentive care. I am happy to help with any pet care needed if given time to fully understand a pet's needs and if the furry friend is comfortable with me to do so. While I work full-time, my work schedule is flexible to fit to your and your pets' needs. I am fully available on weekends, unless otherwise stated. And I am happy to do early morning or late evening check-ins or walks if needed. I am an attentive pet-owner who likes to stick to a schedule for both my and my pets' benefit. My priority goes into making sure my pets are taken care of before taking care of myself, and keeping a consistent care and grooming schedule. That care is given ten-fold when I am looking over another person's furry baby. I adjust my schedule and routine to pets' needs, and provide daily or weekly reports to the parents so they are put at ease of their pets' safety and comfort.

“thanks again Landon, Sophie just loved her walk !!!”

About: I have been a pet/ house sitter for many years. I have worked at many farms and in animal shelters. I am taking a break from my studies of becoming a Veterinary Technician to focus on working. I have two sweet cats of my own and I love all animals no matter what. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I am taking a break from my online classes to become a Veterinary Technician to fully focus on working. I do have a vary part time job at Valley Vet Boarding. I have my schedule for a whole month at a time and will let you know if any of my shifts could overlap with animal care before we confirm booking. I am very compassionate to animals and love them all no matter what. I will adhere to any things that your pet needs. If they need pills I can do that or frequent checks I can work that into my schedule.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and pets for friends, family and neighbors! Including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and birds. My own bulldog, Brodie will always be my favorite though! I’ve cared for all ages of dogs, from young pups who need a lot of check ins to senior dogs who may need more patience and dietary requirements to anxious dogs who worry when their loved ones are gone. All are loved and all end up in my camera roll! (I won’t bother you if you want but I love to send pics to check in!) I currently work part time as a barista and am enrolled at CWU, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I miss my pets so much back home so I am so excited to get to care for yours! I walk shelter dogs every Friday and currently that is where I am getting my pet fix but I can always use more companion time! I keep pets safe by making sure when I enter or leave that doors and windows are closed up and if we go outside it in a fenced area or we are walking with a leash. This ensures no accidental excitements that end up in a lost pet. I can easily crate your pet if that is your preference!

About: I absolutely love animals and would prefer their company over humans any day well except for my children. Hmm okay okay you got me there on some days would I definitely prefer their company to my kids lol, but they are the second-best if not tied for first for the company one can keep. I have been surrounded by animals of all kinds my entire life. I don't remember a time when we or I didn't own at least one animal. To me life doesn't exists without a fur baby of some kind. Most of the time knowledge comes from first hand experience and that I have plenty of, matter of a fact I would dare to say at least 25 years of experience of being around and caring for animals. From house pets to farm animals and your occasional lost and or injured wild animal. I am comfortable with all care that is required or might be required in a pets daily care. If it's not something I am familiar with or if there is something that is required that I have not had experience with, I am a great listener and quick and eager to learn something new there is never to much knowledge one can obtain. How does pet care fit into my daily and weekly routine? Well for me my pet's have always and will always be treated as family. They are a family member if you know you know. So they are just another kid i am taking care of, raising and loving on a daily basis. Only they don't have thumbs so they won't be learning to clean up their own mess in time, however you can forget what color of bowl to give them and they will not be throwing a fit for 30 minutes even if your correct your mistake :) and they have a love that last and is unconditional until their last breath. When you make the commitment to get a pet their care doesn't fit into your daily routine it becomes part of your daily routine that's all there is to it. So i don't know how to explain to you how my pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because it is simply part of it. I will care for the pets in your home just as I would in my home and or as you the client does in your home on a daily basis or however you desired. Nothing would differ from the way their regular day to day goes, besides maybe some extra loving, treats and play time. But the whole goal and job is to keep them in their home a place they are safe and familiar with while you their owner is away. To keep them stress free and ultimately for it to go unnoticed that you are even away. So unless stated otherwise beforehand by yourself I would plan my day's accordingly to how you live and cares for their pets.

About: I am a stay at home mom of two(ages 9 and 7). I have owned and taken care of animals my entire life. I do have a large (unfenced) yard to run around and play in. We are an active family and love going for walks, hiking, going to the dog park, and being outdoors. I am currently working toward becoming a dog trainer. I have a flexible schedule and willing to accommodate for any pet. If your pets don't get along with other animals or children, we do have the space to keep them seperated. We treat animals like family in our home. I will send pictures updates throughout the stay. I am flexible so if you end up needing a last minute sitter I can usually accommodate for that. If you're looking for someone to spoil your pet while you're away, I would love to be that person. I can do extended stays, just send me a message and we can discuss details. During their stay, I will treat you pet exactly like I treat my own, they will get plenty of play time and alot of love. If it's an extended stay, I may have to leave to run an errand once in awhile, but I will never leave them unattended for longer than 2 hours. I don't leave at all during the first 24 hours to give them time to adjust and settle in. I do accept dogs of all personalities, breeds, and sizes. I have dealt with aggressive dogs and behavior issues in the past, so if you're dog has any behavioral problems, just be up front about it and I can work with it. I love all animals. I will do everything to make sure your pet has a comfortable, fun, and more importantly a safe stay while in my care. In the event that someone else is doing the drop off, I will need there name beforehand. If someone else will be doing pick up, I will need a name and photo or description of them. I treat all 4 legged friends like children and want to keep them safe. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. On a typical day, we go for walks, play outside, occasionally go to the dog park or hiking(depending on the pets in my care), and go swimming when the weather is nice. If a pet has a specific routine, we try to stick to it as much as possible. Every stay varies depending on the pets needs and likes/dislikes.

About: I have house sat since I could drive. I adore dogs, and all animals for that matter. I have trained both my dogs and miss them dearly since being at college. If you’d like someone to baby your dog, i’m your gal!! I currently don’t work and I can spend almost all day at your house with your baby. I have school from 8am- 11am weekdays but am free after that! I also am big on walking and recently got into running. I don’t have a place to keep a dog at my house but I am always down to stay and take care of any size dog at your house. I also am an avid walker

About: Growing up we had dogs that I took running and on long walks. I have had personally referred housesits for decades, ranging in types of dogs/pets. I am currently transitioning from a long term employment to a project based/contract job base and traveling full time. My schedule is variable and flexible. I am also transitioning 25+ years of word-of-mouth house-sitting into online platforms while traveling full time. I look forward to connecting! I make sure the dogs are safe, well cared for, played with and caring for their physical needs through following described feeding and water schedule and administering any medications in owners instructions.

“I'm so happy I found Lauren to take care of my dog Muli. I feel totally confident that he is safe with her and that he's getting a lot of energy out. Lauren is very easy to work with and has a lot of love to give your pup!”

About: I recently lost my senior dog at 15 years old. I’m looking to provide that same love, patient, routined care to others pets. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to focus on the care your pet needs. I have experience in specialized diets, medications, and mobility support. I also love to walk and would be happy to take your pet for sniffaris. My current full time job is remote work, allowing me plenty of flexibility, particularly if your pet stays in my home. If need be I can also work from others homes, if pets prefer to stay in their home. I live on the second floor of a quiet fourplex, my apartment is accessed via 14 steps on the outside of my building. I care for pets by bringing them on neighborhood walks, and live across the street from a park.

About: I have been surrounded by animals for my entire life. I got my first puppy when I was 5 years old and since then I have been in love with dogs. I am very organized, flexible, caring, punctual and easy going person. I would appreciate knowing what your pets standard, daily routine looks like. I am comfortable with any medication your furry baby might need. Let me take care of your friend and we will have the best time :) I have a lot of free time and I like being outside. Hanging out with furry friends in the park it’s something that I enjoy the most. I offer 4-5 walks a day. Depends on the age of your dog and need of course. I like taking dogs for a long walk.

“Kay is very reliable and is awesome with our shy pups!”

“This was our first experience with any dog walker or somebody new after 5 years. I was very nervous because Jomo is a reactive dog so it took us a while to make the decision to allow somebody else to take him out on walks. Austyn really made me feel at ease every single time! We had a meet and greet at the park where Jomo walks which really made me feel comfortable and feel assured Jomo and other dogs would be safe. So glad to know my pup was in good hands. Thank you Austyn!”

“Ashton has been so amazing! Great personality and character. My dog is very skittish around humans and Ashton was so nice and comforting to my Kira. She took lots of pictures on their walks together. Ashton is an amazing person. She is caring and thoughtful and empathetic. Will book her again.”

“Caitlyn was awesome! I especially appreciate her communication- my dog has had gastrointestinal issues since he was bitten by a rattlesnake 9 months ago, and I've turned into quite the helicopter parent. With Caitlyn, I knew where my dog was at all times, which was reassuring, and when I came home, it was clear that he had had a good time with her. Thanks, Caitlyn!”
