Dog Walking International District

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

“10/10 — We were so worried about our reactive old lady pit bull finding a walker who understood her needs, and we’re SO thankful we found Andy. Sadly, we’re moving across the country, but we would’ve used their services forever if we could have. We did walks and over nights. Andy was always kind, communicative and sweet to Pearl. We cannot thank you enough, and we’re so happy Pearl had such a nice friend. Thank you, Andy!”

About: Hi! I love being around animals and truly enjoy taking care of them. I know that pets are family, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for them while you’re away. Every pet has its own personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I respect each pet’s schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions you leave. I know how important it is to keep their routine consistent, and I’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they need. I’ll treat your pet with kindness, patience, and the same love and respect I would give my own. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I plan my schedule to make sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I’m committed to following their routine and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s routine and personality. My priority is to provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where pets feel secure. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, a clean space, and plenty of attention. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care.

“Emily is responsible, punctual, walks fast and is all around an amazing walker for our mini Aussie Billie. Thanks so much for the walks, Emily!”

“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!”

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life! My family is filled with animal lovers, and often do public outreach to teach communities about animals and pet-care. I have 2 cats that are both 4 years old, almost 5 soon! I just graduated with my Masters in Legal Studies and I am looking for work while I job search and decide what is next for me. Rover allows me to set my own hours that align with my open availability. My cats have a pretty cushy life. They're both fed 9-11 a.m., I feed them a small wet food can, dry food with snacks on top, along with fish oils. They are fed the same amount in the evening (and extra treaties if they have been good ladies that day). They receive play or enrichment before meals, and otherwise love to cuddle and sleep. It is satisfying to me to brush them, too. The same applies to dogs. I had 5 dogs throughout my childhood, I provided care for them and walked them frequently. I have been stressed in my day-to-day life recently, and I believe dog walking will allow me to be outside while doing something positive and productive. I love all types of dogs, and am not scared of most animals.

About: I’ve helped lots of family and friends care for their dogs. Currently i have one dog and 3 cats that my roommates and I all care for. I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) which helped me gain a lot of understanding for how modeling positive behaviors can pay off in all parts of life. I’m currently working part time until 2pm. On weekdays anytime after 2:15pm will be available as well as the majority of weekends. I’m very flexible and willing to help however I can. I have 4 pets at home and adding someone new into the mix can be stressful so I cannot host. However, I can pick up and play or take for walks.

“Logan is a wonderful pet lover! He takes really sweet care of my pup with special needs and communicates frequently and well! So glad we found him and my dog adores having a visit from Logan!”

About: I'm incredibly detail-oriented and used to managing everything from high-energy "zoomies" to meticulous grooming needs. I’d love to give your dog the exact level of care, structure, and affection they deserve while you're away. Hi, I'm passionate about providing a safe, active, and reliable home-away-from-home for your furry family members. I thrive on routine, and I ensure that the dogs in my care enjoy a balanced mix of structured downtime, high-energy play, and plenty of affection. Because I maintain a consistent Monday–Friday work schedule, your pup will enjoy a peaceful, predictable daytime environment, followed by a fantastic afternoon adventure. The very second I get home at 4:00 PM, it’s all about the dogs—we head straight to the park for a favorite game of fetch and a refreshing, long walk to burn off energy and explore. When the weekend hits, the schedule opens up completely! Saturdays and Sundays are entirely dedicated to my canine guests, meaning they get my absolute, undivided attention, extra long adventures, and all the belly rubs they could ask for. Leaving your pet and your home in someone else's hands takes a lot of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. When I watch your pet in their own environment, my top priorities are maintaining their established routine and keeping your home secure.

“Alijah is dependable, flexible and always gets the wiggles out of our energetic 8 mo old pup. He’s always so much more chill when we come home from a long day of work, when he gets a nice, long walk with Alijah. We appreciate her a lot!”

“Hi I just wanted to a minute and talk about how amazing Heidi is! Heidi is so great with Bruno, I've seen such a change in him since she's been in his life. When I get home and take him out he's happier and more relaxed than before. With my partner's and my schedules being so different Heidi has helped us to not worry about Bruno being anxious waiting for us to go outside. His quality of life has gone up and it shows! We love having Heidi we're very grateful at how skilled she is with Bruno, she's so amazing😁❤️”

“Becca took great care of my 4.5 month old puppy! She was on time, responsive, and kept the little man in line. I would definitely book her again.”

About: Hi! I’ve been a huge animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Vietnam, my connection with dogs started when I was really young—I used to help my mom bathe and feed our family dogs, and I even helped hand-feed a litter of newborn puppies when their mom didn't have enough milk! That early, hands-on care gave me a deep, intuitive bond with animals, and my friends actually joke that I’m a bit of a "dog whisperer." Fast forward to today, I’m the go-to pet sitter for my cousins, and I've even helped train their dogs from the time they were little puppies. Whether I'm working on basic commands with a high-energy pup or just cuddling up with a big, beautiful fluffy white dog, spending time with animals is genuinely my favorite thing to do. I absolutely love being outdoors, and I'm totally used to getting my steps in around Seattle, rain or shine. Because of my hands-on puppy training experience, I’m super comfortable reinforcing good leash manners and handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ll make sure your dog gets a great, safe workout and comes home happy and tired out! I am currently looking for a full-time job and trying to make some extra cash to cover my living expenses. I am very flexible about time as long as you let me know ahead of time. I will definitely arrange my schedule and help provide your pets with a joyful walk or a lovely home visit! I provide home drop-in service, so whenever and wherever you need my care for your pets, please feel free to reach out to me. I will give your pets real companionship while you’re busy or out of town. It’s never just a quick potty break and a food bowl refill with me—we’ll actually play, cuddle, and hang out so they don’t feel lonely. And if you have kitties too, even better! I love cats just as much as dogs and would be thrilled to care for your whole furry crew. I can’t wait to meet your pets and treat them exactly like my own!

“Levi is patient, kind, and dependable. It can be nerve wracking to leave your pup behind with a stranger, but Levi makes you feel comfortable and confident that he will be there when he says he will and your pup will have fun in your absence.”

“Katie is amazing! She quickly stepped in to help our family when I had surgery and wasn’t mobile. She took our puppy for lovely walks to play with other dogs and sniff around the neighborhood. She clearly loves dogs and has a calm and patient nature with them. Thank you, Katie!”

Brianna H.

“Erin is conscientious and a true pet lover! She even sent pics of my kitty to me despite the fact that her services were for our dog. Erin is responsive, friendly, and a delight to work with !”

“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 was brought up in a rural area, surrounded be many animals the entire time. I worked in an animal shelter for 2 years before I moved to Seattle. I've had dogs since I was born & a few cats - would have had more but 2 family members were allergic. Im very familiar of taking care of.dogs of all ages. Several of the babies I've had over the years lived to be well into their mid teens, so dealing with the blind, deaf, sickly & just old age in general, isn't an issue. Small/large, old/young, low/hight maintenance - im comfortable, exposed & familiar with it all. I work around 20-30 hours a week & live within a 10 minute walk to my job. Im generally a home body & will be particularly when sitting. I live near a large park & have a fenced dog run on my rooftop so can give immediate, short & extended care/walks - whatever is needed by them. It depends on what the animal wants & needs. My home will/can be an open space for them if thats what they want and plenty of room for them to find their comfortable spot. I have an AC & heater, so climate wont be an issue. When it comes to your home, mostly same thing applies - its all up to you & them. I will respect that its your/their space - not mine. During summers, if caring at your home, do prefer housing with AC because I am a bit sensitive towards heat but not enough to turn down a job (unless it gets 80°+ inside).

About: I have taken care of and connected naturally with dogs (and several types of animals) my entire life. Every time I even pass a dog on a lonely day I feel I have passed a best friend and all will be well. I just think they are one of the biggest gifts to humanity. I have a few fields in working with dogs in the past, besides my own who recently passed away in 2023. Speaking of her, I gave her the best life I knew to. We did everything together. We moved to around nine cities across the U.S. together. She lived a very rich life—after I rescued her. I have been a dog musher assistant in a past life, a vet tech intern, and started my working life in high school in a pet shop where I learned a lot about the health of different breeds. On a daily basis I track rescues for dogs in the hardest parts for them to survive in in our country and others, and try endlessly to advocate for them. …As much as they love us, why would I not want to help back? I have full time entry work in finance, but since I have lost my girl, I am in need of a hustle off the clock that lets me keep putting my love for these babies somewhere. Also, if you have a cat or other animals, know I’m originally from the country in Alabama and come from a family of both cat, dog and all animal lovers. I hope to meet your little love bugs soon. -Sarah Flexible currently—My company has me as an “on-call” until they can find a permanent space. Evenings might be best long-term. Company shifts are 9 hours. First off, anything they can ingest which might be harmful needs to be out of their reach. Good sleep, exercise, diet and quality time essential. I will need to see all dogs’ shots are up to date before services so as to not pass any diseases to other dogs, fyi.

“Rissy was great! She was super professional and so good with my girls. Arrived on time and instantly my girls loved her. Rissy played with them and they loved there walk. Would book again!!! Thank you!”
