Dog Walking Kingston

“Great walk for Willow! Thank uou”

“Ashley is the best! She brought our dog Ellie on walks a couple days a week for a few months. She also worked on training obedience commands with her while they went on walks, and gave instructions so we can continue when we bring her for walks. She sent pictures and wrote a message each walk, which we loved to see! We appreciate that Ellie was calm and capable hands each time Ashley visited, and we highly recommend her!”

“Amber Rae was very good. She always came on time and was very sweet. I just can’t afford anyone right now. That and I got my card hacked. She was great though.”

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been part of my everyday world. From a young age, my life has revolved around animals and helping them become the best versions of themselves. Some of my earliest experiences were with cats, including a feral rescue named Misty I bonded with closely as a child. I tend to connect well with animals that are more troubled, reactive, or unsure, and I’m often able to bring out their calmer, more trusting side. Later on in my life, my experience expanded significantly through raising and caring for Golden Retrievers. Growing up around breeding and long-term dog care taught me responsibility, consistency, and how much attention animals need at different stages of life. I’ve been involved in raising dogs from newborns to adulthood, and many of the dogs I’ve helped raise have gone on to become unforgettable adventure companions for their families. Over the past fifteen years, I’ve gained extensive experience working with animals through long-term, hands-on care. My background as a Golden Retriever breeder has given me perspective on how different animals can be, even within the same breed. Every animal has unique preferences, behaviors, and ways of communicating, and learning to recognize those differences has been a major part of my experience. I’m comfortable managing multiple animals at once and handling a range of needs without becoming overwhelmed. I’m most accustomed to larger dogs, but my experience raising puppies has given me the delicacy and awareness needed to care for smaller animals as well. I’m especially familiar with puppies under six months old, including their unpredictable behavior and the extra attention they require. I’ve also worked with dogs that can be semi-reactive in certain situations. While I’m not willing to take on dogs that are broadly aggressive, I retain the right to assess the dog before accepting. I’m most comfortable with working with dogs that are borderline reactive but not reactive-aggressive. I can recognize signs of stress or reactivity, and can manage dogs that are generally well-functioning but may need thoughtful handling in specific situations. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins and walks throughout the day, generally between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm, unless I’m staying at a client’s home for house sitting. Animal care already shapes my daily routine, and I’m used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, exercise, outdoor exposure, and rest. I’m comfortable juggling different routines and planning time and resources around an animal’s specific needs. I’m very conscientious about safety and environmental risks. I pay close attention to doors, gates, toxic plants, household hazards, interactions with unfamiliar animals, and changes in an animal’s behavior. I rely on observation and experience to distinguish between normal behavior and something that may need attention. If something seems off, I communicate clearly and directly, providing context and details without being alarmist. I also enjoy sharing updates and photos so owners feel informed and connected while they’re away. I have experience filming and taking photos of animals especially dogs and cats that don’t sit still - so you’re bound to get a good photo or two of them.

About: As an experienced dog and cat mom, I will provide the same compassion and care for your furry loved ones as I do for my own. I think of new and innovative ways to make pet sitting an exciting experience for my new fur friends. I know the difficulties of finding arrangements for your fur babies for vacation, work, etc., can be hectic; however, that is where you will find that I am a great fit for your family! I am a trustworthy individual who will invest quality time in getting to know your fur children and provide excellent care. I am incredibly adaptable and intuitive, so it makes understanding all those fur children quirks a priority. As a pet-sitter, I am very flexible and will work closely with you to discuss details for the pet-sit (IE: arrivals/departure times, house-sitting expectations) , and get to know your baby. I am very responsive and readily available. I have experience with dogs and cats of all different breeds, and even worked as a professional dog bather for some time. I have been around dogs and cats my entire life. My very first fur BFF was a majestic, soulful Lab/German Shepard mix who was my best companion through my awkward growing pain years. Currently, I am a proud mom of the protective teddy bear (Lola), burst of energy and enthusiastic Rat Terrier mix (Bettie), queen of mean looks yet total cheese-ball cat (Nirvana), and my loving baby boy cat (Hawkeye) who is watching me intently as I write this. I hope to arrange my first pet-sit with you and your children soon! I also offer drop-in visits and walks. All of my starting base prices are listed, and if additional services are needed, I am very open to discuss. I work hard so that my fur children live awesome lives! I can provide flexibility in scheduling for all pet care services. I work remotely from home and can work remotely from any home/location with internet. I am also a dog and cat mom who takes care of 4 fur children regularly. Currently, I do not offer pet boarding services in my home as Lola is working on her socialization skills. I will bring professionalism, care, and fun right to your location! While staying at the client's home, I have the utmost respect for your space. I am a highly organized professional and can maintain clean, tidy spaces. I will work with each client to best suit their needs and expectations of my stay.

“We are so happy to have met Tom! He did a fantastic job taking care of all three of our furry kids and we would not hesitate to have him look after them again. He has also been great about helping us out to walk the dogs if we are away for a day. We appreciate his updates and the sweet pictures he takes. The whole family is now big Tom fans! Thank you Tom!”

“Excellent job and Lyra Mae loved it! Thank you for walking her!!!”

I love hikes and would love to have the company of your dog with me! 🖤 I am a fulltime artist, so I have a pretty flexible schedule I am able to work around.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats alike since I was 16. I started by pet sitting overnight for my grandparents while they were on vacation and eventually started pet sitting for friends and family. I’ve handled walking, feeding, enrichment, and medication needs. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and dispositions and have no problem staying overnight as needed. I am self-employed and therefore have the flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets in the way they deserve, whether that be an overnight stay or regular walks and potty breaks. My cats sleep in my bed with me and get regular pets and cuddles. I provide enrichment as often as they seem interested. I care for clients’ pets like I would care for my own. If the pets are allowed to sleep on the bed or sit on the furniture with me, I love animal cuddles and am happy to share my space.

“Lisa saved us and Oakley because I had to be gone much longer than planned. She knows the drill with Oakley and he seems to feel very comfortable with her. She's a keeper for sure!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, and am currently a dog mom to my wonderful fur baby. Throughout the years I have been entrusted to go to peoples houses and care for their dogs, take care of dogs in my own home, and have even been entrusted to care for newborn puppies until they were old enough to go to their homes. I have a special place in my heart for dogs, and I absolutely love any opportunity to meet all kinds of new furry friends and personalities!

About: I have always been an extreme dog lover…growing up I volunteered through various adoption agencies and duties included fostering dogs, helping with walks, and lots of playing and entertaining. I have two absolutely insane pups, so no dog will be too much energy to handle. My partner and I are very active and love bringing our pups along on all of our adventures, and I would love to do the same for your pup, if they like the outdoors. If not, I'm just as happy snuggling up and providing lots of love and attention when you're away. I unfortunately cannot sit inside my home because my one pup, Kona, doesn't always get along with other dogs, but walks, drop-ins and house sitting are definitely something I can do! I'm very flexible when it comes to what you might need, so I can make most accommodations without issue! I'm very excited to take care of your pup while you're out, and I always send pics/updates (if you'd like), because I know I love when a sitter does that for me! Fit in care around work schedule, try to accommodate what your needs are. Depending on the season, my availability changes but I’ll always be upfront about that. Happy to follow any instructions you provide. Happy to play in the yard, take your pup on walks/run, take your pup to the trails…whatever they like best!

About: I have been dog walking for friends and families for about 10 years now with a variety of dogs! My experience with different breeds of dogs has shown me that all dogs have different needs to be met. My own dogs has taught me to always be aware of everything and to always be there for them. I enjoy being able to connect with animals and will make your dog my first priority! I will be wearing a mask when dog walking or sitting and will be following the CDC guidelines for COVID-19I am a student at Seattle University and all classes are online so I am free whenever you need a sitter or a walker :) Please let me know if you have any questions. Any time, currently I am unemployed and am taking classes online, so as long as I get a heads up I will be able to do whatever you need! I have a fenced place in a family and pet friendly neighborhood. I will figure out what else can be dog-proofed and to make sure that they is nothing they can get into.

About: I’m a farm raised girl with years of animal care practice, dogs, cats, chickens, horses, goats, and donkeys. I’ve always had pets in my life and claimed the role of family dog trainer. Pets are my happy place, and I love spending time loving on dogs and cats so their owner feels more comfortable leaving home. My dog Pongo is very special to me and I know the pain of leaving him behind when it’s necessary, and also know the joy of finding someone with a big heart to care for him when I’m gone. I’m that girl with the big heart that will love and care for your furry loved ones so you can be comfortable leaving home knowing they’re well cared for. I spent a year volunteering at West Sound Wildlife which gave me experience tending to wounded animals. I’m well versed in giving animals medications and following strict diets. My schedule is very flexible at the moment which means I’m able to make your animal a top priority. I work at a local restaurant but my shifts aren’t long, at most I’ll be out of the house for five to six hours. I love getting to know each pet, what their needs are, and how to best meet those needs while I care for them. If tons of love and snuggles are required I’m happy to oblige, but I also understand the different boundaries of each individual animal and how to navigate them to earn trust. My dog Pongo gets 4-5 walks per day, some are sniff walks for mental exercise, and others are to throw a stick in the woods for him to let some energy out.

About: I grew up with many dogs, my family bred dogs so I am very comfortable with puppies and animals that are not yet potty trained. I also have experience caring for sick dogs and dogs that need special care. I’m a college student home for the summer, looking to help out around my community and watch after your animals! I love walking dogs and can always come and check on your pets when needed. While I can’t host any pets in my home, I feel comfortable servicing anyones pet in their own home. Making sure to give them water, treats, toys or food.

“Marlene has been very consistent and flexible. I was hesitant to have someone walk my dog. But I can see how my dog gets super excited when, he sees her. She is now walking Iman on a weekly basis. And that gives me peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her 💯.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and have grown up in a home with dogs since I was five years old. I cared for my own chihuahua–pug mix, who lived to be 18 years old. This gave me extensive hands-on experience with both daily care and the unique needs of senior dogs. I also have several years of hands-on experience caring for cats. I’ve had my own cats for about six years, including one with chronic pancreatitis who requires frequent medication administered through a topical ear ointment. Caring for a pet with ongoing medical needs has made me very attentive, patient, and comfortable supporting animals who need extra care or special routines. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve provided pet sitting for several repeat customers, caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, including a senior terrier, a pitbull, and a husky. This has helped me become comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual temperament, whether they need gentle companionship, structured routines, or more active engagement. Because I travel occasionally myself and rely on pet sitters for my own animals, I also understand the experience from an owner’s perspective. I know how important clear communication, reliability, and regular updates are when someone else is caring for a beloved pet. I make it a priority to follow routines closely, respect each owner’s preferences, and provide thoughtful updates and photos so you can feel comfortable, informed, and confident while you’re away. My approach to pet care is calm, attentive, and respectful of each animal’s comfort level. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to create a safe, relaxed, and positive experience for every animal in my care. Thank you for considering me. I’d love to meet you and your pet! Miranda :) I currently work part-time Wednesday through Sunday from approximately 9:00am–4:30pm, with shorter midday hours on Wednesdays. I’m available for pet care every evening, as well as mornings before work. Mondays and Tuesdays are fully open, which makes them ideal for daytime visits, longer walks, or extended care. I’m always transparent about my schedule and happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs to make sure we’re a good fit. I’d love to keep you in the loop of your pets care. I will send you a picture each visit and update you on how they’re doing. I will make sure to follow any protocols set in place for me while I am there.
