Dog Walking Kirkland

About: Hi, I'm Emily and animals have been at the heart and center of my entire life. Animals bring quality and enrichment to our lives and I like to give that back in return. I've been fortunate to have animals since I was a little girl, from pocket pets, to cats, dogs, goats, horses and even a cow! In a professional capacity, I was a veterinary technician for over 8 years, providing emergency and routine care, for both large and small animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, chickens, cows, horses, and donkeys while owners were away for about the past 10 years. The last 4 years, I have been active in kennel clubs, taking classes and learning about dog training. I am currently co-teaching obedience classes and plan to continue learning about dog behavior and training. I am currently taking clients for drop in visits and walks. Drop in visits will be tailored to your pet's specific needs, providing potty breaks, fresh food/water, cleaning, comfort, & play. Walks provide physical and mental stimulation, companionship, basic skills and play. **For large dog requests, I ask as a courtesy that they are well mannered and are not likely to jump on me and knock me over or drag me as I am only 100lbs 🙂 thank you! Safety is of utmost importance. I am committed to your pet's mental, physical health, and safety overall. I will take care as I do my own. I recognize that each animal has its own personality, some are outgoing, some are shy. I will allow them to be who they are so that they can feel safe in my presence. I will communicate with you based on your preference. I provide reports at the conclusion of each check-in, also happy to send photos if your pet is comfortable with that.

About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.

“I booked Sophia last minute this week and she of course accepted and gave the best updates on my pups! I always rely on Sophia as my dogs love her!”

About: I love taking care of animals but I also love truly engaging with your pets, and giving them extra love each time I'm with them. I try to make it a little easier for them with their family being away by making sure they are entertained and happy. I have very flexible availability, mainly mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I am always willing to discuss specific availability needs and I have a very flexible schedule. I love really engage and play with your pets and to send lots of pictures and share updates when I stay with your pet overnight.

“Alexxis is amazing! She’s on time, reliable, and wonderful with my pup. She’s been great when I’ve needed a quick schedule change or with any special needs my dog has. She’s the best”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and love every furry friend like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including high energy puppies, senior dogs, and anxious personalities. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love that go into caring for them at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust someone, so I always prioritize communication, reliability, and a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks. Being home allows me to give pets consistent attention instead of leaving them alone for long periods. At my home, I have a small fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Safety is always my top priority, and I keep a structured, calm environment while still making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I also have three friendly pugs who are well socialized and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have built-in companionship and playmates (if they enjoy other dogs!). I always introduce dogs slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact routine including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and house rules to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or theirs.

“I had a great experience with Katelyn. It was very short notice. She was precise and did awesome with my instructions. Will definitely be in contact again for the near future !!”

About: I have always loved dogs thats why I became a pet groomer. I have been grooming for the last three years hoping to learn cat grooming soon. With that I experience dogs of all ages, health conditions, behaviors, and sizes. I work well with anxious/reactive dogs. My personal dog is very people and dog selective so im very understanding if your pup is as well. I also own reptiles and few cats. I have pet sat birds in my youth. I work full time but my days start at diffrent times but stay the same week by week. Im able to do drop in visits or short walks on my lunch break. I go into work at 12 on Mondays, I get out around 4 on Thursdays and every other Friday, my days off are Tuesdays and Sundays. As a groomer safety and trust are my number one priority between me and the dog. I go at the dogs pace, build that relationship, and read body language well. I also treat every dog in my care as my own. I would put myself in harms way to keep them safe, they are my everything.

About: I am certified in Fear Free Shelter Training that allows me to properly care for animals in a low stress environment. I have also worked with a variety of species from house pets, rodents, exotics and farm animals! As of right now pet sitting is my full time job. I am available almost all times of the day. If I cannot do a specific day or time I will be sure to let you know in advance! I cannot bring your pets to my home as I have too many pets of my own. However, I am more than willing to take your pets out for walks, to play ball or just hangout at home with them!

About: Dog mom providing loving, reliable care for puppies, adults, and seniors. Patient, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet safe and happy, and comfortable always. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home with my Poms. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for one to two dogs per day, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection. I have my own home with a large patio area where pets can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, I always keep pets safely supervised and use their collar or leash when needed. I provide daily walks, exercise, playtime, and loving care while following each pet’s routine and needs.

“Camille responded to my request within the hour and was able to come for a first time, last minute, dog walk when the dog walker I had lined up cancelled. Judging by the smile on my pups face in the photos she sent, I’d say she took good care of him. Thank you Camille!”
