Dog Walking First Hill

“Sarah was amazing with my dog! He was very anxious and had some adjustment issues, and she communicated with me through it all and was very patient managing through it. I would highly recommend her!”

About: First Hill minutes from downtown • weekday day care for office workers • private-room setup for reactive dogs. I grew up in a village in Turkey where dogs were part of everyday life we always had our own dogs, and caring for animals was something I learned as a child, not from books. Since then, animals have never left my life: for years I cared for my son's dog as if he were my own, and today I still help care for my other son's dog here in Seattle every week feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'm a retired grandmother, so I'm never in a rush; your pet gets my calm, full attention on every visit. I'm reliable, always on time, and I'm happy to send photos and updates from each visit. My English is simple but I always understand care instructions clearly. It would be my joy to care for your furry family member. I'm retired, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life I have a flexible schedule and I'm available seven days a week, morning to evening. I'm never in a rush between visits: your pet always gets my full time and attention. I already care for my son's dog here in Seattle every week, so regular visits are a natural part of my routine. All my visits take place in your home, where your pet feels safest. I follow your care instructions exactly feeding amounts, medications, house rules and I never let a dog off leash outdoors. I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep your home clean and tidy, and treat it with full respect. After every visit I send you photos and a short update, so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I have 11 years of experience raising and caring for my Maltese, Cooper, who was truly part of my family. Sadly, he passed away almost a year ago during my first year of nursing school at Seattle University, and I have missed having a furry companion around ever since. Since I live in a studio and have my final year of nursing school, getting a pet is not something that is attainable for me right now. So I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and give them the same love, attention, and patience I gave Cooper. I’m excited to help fellow pet owners while also getting some much needed puppy love! 🐾❤️ I’m a full-time student, so my availability will vary. Since it’s currently summer, my schedule is fairly open. However, once the school year starts, my availability will change. I’ll update the app with my set schedule at the beginning of each quarter. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet very seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and patient, and I will always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I also believe in clear communication, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure I follow your instructions and your pet’s usual routine.

“Dale offered to meet and greet which is also a plus when working with a new walker. Arrived on time for both meet and greet and walks, thank you Dale I will rebook.”

“Gabriel has been amazing with Murphy this week! He’s communicative and reliable. Murphy can sometimes be reactive or a little stubborn about walking, but Gabriel handled him so well and was very patient with him. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and extra care during the walks. As I’ve been working long days, I had a last-minute care request and really appreciated that he was able to accommodate it. It gave me peace of mind knowing Murphy was in good hands.”

About: I am so excited to care for your pets! I grew up in a house full of furry friends, so caring for them is second nature to me. During the last five years that I lived in Bozeman, MT, I became an experienced pet sitter and quickly became the go-to person for friends and neighbors whenever they needed someone reliable to watch their pets or pop in for check-ins. I’m working towards getting a bigger place and being able to adopt a pet of my own one day, so getting to hang out with your animals is truly the best part of my week! Because of that, your pets will get my absolute undivided attention, tons of affection, and the same care I’d give my own pets. I’m currently a law student, so my schedule is way more flexible than the typical 9-to-5 worker. I study from home a lot, which means I have plenty of availability throughout the day for midday drop-ins, flexible potty breaks, or just keeping your pet company. I am also totally focused on hitting my 10,000 steps every day, so you can count on your pet getting some excellent walks. Whether your pet needs a structured routine during the day or just a reliable buddy to break up their afternoon, I can easily fit them right into my daily routine! When it comes to caring for your pet, my top priorities are safety, trust, and following your routine or schedule. I really appreciate clear, detailed instructions, so if you need things done a specific way, I will follow any rules and schedules exactly as they are written. I am a big believer in communication, so you can expect regular updates and photo check-ins from me so you always know how things are going. If I am house-sitting, I will treat your home with total respect.

“Jana was great! She responded quickly, was understanding when my original plans changed, sent pictures, and was patient with my pup. Will definitely reach out to her in the future!”

“Jen was fantastic in every way - reliable, responsive, flexible, thorough, communicative, and most importantly, so sweet and caring of our sweet dog. He developed a hot spot right before we left town, and she helped take care of that, taking his cone off for walks and then putting it back on again when they got back to the house. We couldn't recommend Jen more highly!”

Olivia P.

“Responsive, caring, and took great photos!”

About: I love animals of all walks of life and personally own two large dogs and two cats. I have also volunteered 500+ combined hours between a horse rescue called the Equine Project and the Tacoma and Auburn Valley Humane Societies. I can take dogs on short or long walks, runs, and hikes, can handle all sizes and ages of animal, and know how to and am able to groom, pet sit, and train for a negotiable additional cost. I recently graduated from Pacific Lutheran University earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and am currently working remotely. I love working with animals and because of my flexible working conditions I am able to stay with the animals I’m caring for full-time. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fluffy companion. I am currently continuing my education online and working remotely, so I have complete flexibility in my schedule! I love animals and have been working as a pet sitter for years and love this work. I try to maintain the routine that an animal normally has as much as I can. I like to meet an animal where they’re at, if they have a lot of energy I’ll provide enrichment, walks, and engage with them often, if they’re lower energy we’ll hang out and I’ll provide as much snuggling as they’re interested in!

“Maddy is just great with my skittish and timid dog! She gives her a lot of attention and love, and does a wonderful job adjusting to any erratic behavior during walks. Her notes on the walk and photos keep my mind at great ease that all is well and I’ve a happy puppy. Maddy is also super dependable and has been flexible with me when I have last minute schedule changes. Highly recommend!”
