Dog Walkers in Lakebay, WA

About: I grew up on a small farm with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, pigs, two cows, one Shetland pony, one horse, one goat and a sheep! I LOVE animals and see them as family. Your pets will be treated with the same tenderness, attentiveness and enthusiasm that I share with my own fur babies. I currently am the proud mama to Sascha, a sweet shy German Shepherd and Cassius, a highly energetic border collie. I also have a "cat-dog", Mowgli. I know the level of trust it takes to leave your animal in the care of a new person and will ensure you have a thorough meet and greet before any booking with me. I am a stickler for details and will follow care directions to the letter. Exercise is a priority in our family and there will be no half-hearted walks on my watch! I look forward to meeting you and your animal babies.❤️

“Marquis is so great. Super helpful, professional, and easy to work with. I definitely trust him with our pup. Thanks for being a part of our team Marquis!”

About: Growing up on a farm in Texas, I've been surrounded by and caring for animals my entire life, which has given me a unique and comprehensive understanding of their needs. daily pet care routine involves potty breaks, meal times, exercise that’s fun (play time!), & cuddles + love!! Every pet is treated like family and taken care of like my own. In my home, my approach to pet care for dogs and cats centers on creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment. I prioritize their individual needs, ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular exercise, and plenty of affection. For dogs, this includes daily walks, playtime, and consistent positive training reinforcement if needed, while for cats, it involves providing enriching activities like interactive toys, scratching posts, and quiet spaces for relaxation. Cleanliness is key, so I maintain tidy feeding areas and litter boxes! I also live on an island with a fenced yard so safety is huge and you can feel comfortable here.

“Molly is very kind and patient with my timid pup and kept me updated throughout her visit. She has shown to be trustworthy and I am very grateful we found her. I already have her booked for a future stay!”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 16 years old. I have done many overnights stays and dog walks almost everyday. The most I have walked at once is 4 dogs. I have taken care of many different breeds and have loved each and every one. I just moved up here from Arizona, and currently have no other obligations. I would love to make this my full time job. I do have 2 dogs at home, so the only time being away would be to feed or let my babies outside. I do not care for animals in my home as my dogs are very sensitive to new animals. I care for your animal like they are my own in your home. I provide drop in feeding/ potty breaks, overnight stays and walks. I will work with you to provide your animal with the best care.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows just how important it is to leave your pup somewhere that feels like home. When I look for a sitter myself, I want peace of mind—knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having a great time. That’s exactly what I offer to you and your dog. My partner and I share our home with our happy, high-energy 2.5-year-old male pup, who we raised from a puppy. He’s super social and always ready to help new dog friends burn off some steam—seriously, he’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime! My partner also grew up breeding miniature English Bull Terriers, so between the two of us, we’ve got years of hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs. When you come to pick up your dog, you won’t have to wonder how it went—you’ll know they were in good hands. Happy, tired, and well-loved—just how it should be. Pet care is built right into my daily life. I work from home, so I'm around all day to give your dog the attention and care they need. I take a midday break to walk my dog 1.5–2 miles, and your pup will be right there with us, getting exercise and fresh air. After work, we go for another walk and spend time playing fetch in the yard. With our fenced yard and dog door, they can enjoy safe outdoor time throughout the day too. Your dog will be an active part of our home life and get plenty of movement, love, and attention from morning to night. 🐶 What you can expect: One-on-one attention: I only host one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full care and focus. Daily walks and outdoor play to keep them active and happy. A dog door to our fenced yard—they can come and go as they please (safely!). A calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can relax just like they would at home.

“Sarah was very patient with our 9month old hyper mini Aussie who is not the best walker. She helped me bring out his confident on the walks, especially toward other dogs since he does get pretty vocal. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to walk my dogs.”

About: I have volunteered at the Humane Society for a couple of years. I have a lot of experience with large dogs as I have three Great Danes and two mastiff mixes at home! I am also very comfortable taking care of a wide variety of animals including reptiles, amphibians, beetles and fish tanks! I have owned many reptiles over the years and am comfortable with pretty much any except spiders. I am usually quite flexible to the amount of time and attention your animals need. For specifics please feel free to send me a message! I have a part time job that typically requires me to be away for 4-6 hours at a time. However, I’m more than happy to do a potty break run during my lunch breaks. My goal is to create as stress free of an environment as possible. I always do my best to keep to the routine your fur babies are familiar with!

About: Hi! I'm Rori, your local dog sitting, walking, and treat feeding expert. I love all puppers spunky personalities- whether they like to burrow in your bed (like my dachshunds), hold the leash in their mouth on walks, or even bark when they want attention. My favorite part about coming home after a day at work (or even after five minutes) is when you first see your dog and they wiggle or squeal with excitement. I am very flexible with my availability, and I understand that sometimes life gets in the way and you may need someone at the last minute. I am very responsive and I will look after your fur-baby like it is my own. Whether you're tied up with work or need a weekend getaway, I will be available to help with all your doggie needs. I am passionate about my job, and it also allows me to be flexible. If I’m watching your furry friend during the work week, I can let them out every 3-4 hours. On the weekends, I am extremely flexible. I will ensure your dog is walked every day and is taken care of. My schedule is flexible. I also have no problem communicating with my clients if we need to come up with a solution to watching their animals in regards to dates/times to make your trip less stressful. We do not have a fenced backyard, but I have no problem taking your dog outside on a leash for potty time. I also like to walk at least two times a day (morning and evening) to get your dog outside. I do not have a problem using a crate- but you need to provide the bed/crate etc. so that your dog is comfortable in a new environment.

About: I love my pets as a family member that I respect at all times. I am open to loving your pets as families as well with dignity and respect at all time. And I am open to doing boarding and walks for your pets to enjoy the outdoors as well. I love all types of animals cause they are loyal and so I cause I believe they deserve it.

You have questions or concerns I am very approachable weather meg or positive I’m here to please you and to make you comfortable to living your love ones in my care God Bless!! I currently work full time but I am available on weekends and week days I have a 26 ur old daughter that helps cause I work during the day and she works during the night so the furbaby will not be left alone and we post updates to keep the family at ease. With dignity and respect and lots of love in and treat dogs like family members both in my house and clients house as well that’s my motto

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, from growing up with family pets to recently caring for pups on our lively little farm. Now I have settled into our new home on a peaceful island, where our days are filled with long walks, playtime at the community beach, and plenty of cuddles. We have a secure fenced yard, and your dog will be treated like part of the family—with love, routine, and lots of tail-wagging fun. I am home all day, so your furry family member will be watched and loved. 🐾 We love our little island and the quiet walks and fun on the beach each day. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I treat each animal like my own—with patience, attention, and lots of affection. I follow their routines closely, from feeding and medication schedules to favorite toys and walking routes, to help them feel comfortable and safe. In my home, they’ll enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment with a fenced yard, cozy spots to relax, and daily outdoor time. In your home, I make sure to respect your space and keep everything clean and consistent so your pet can thrive in familiar surroundings.

About: I love animals and always have. I believe they set us free and cure the pain we harbor. I am trying to get my health back in order while making an extra income to support unexpected life changes! I currently work full time. So working around that schedule until I move out of the position in the near future. But after work I walk my dog and try to get in as much play time in my fenced yard as possible. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space for your baby to run and play! I have locking doors and a gate to make sure they are secure when necessary as well as outdoor cameras survailing my property.

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for a little over 6 years. Helping out with relatives whenever they were running errands, or staying at family friends houses while they go vacation. I, myself, have owned a couple dogs and cats and have raised them through puppy hood to seniors. Having this experience has helped me with caring for other dogs and cats alike. I currently work full time up in Uptown, Gig Harbor. I have different work schedule than most- starting usually at 3am-7am. Luckily I get off early so I have plenty of free time to care for pets alike! I like to make sure that all animals are comfortable and happy, wether that be with a good walk or snuggles in the couch. It’s important that in the end all parties pet or owner are satisfied by the end of the service :)

“Diane is good with my pups, especially 14 year old Chihuahua. Wilson is shy with strangers but walks great with Diane Mojo is nervous and sometimes a little nippy but Diane was able to get the slip leash on him and walk him. I trust her with my dogs I would recommend her”

About: Hello fellow pet parents (: It is a pleasure and privilege to work with animals. I grew up taking care of dogs and cats. We owned 2 rescue dogs (australian shepard/newfoundland mix and a german shepard/lab mix) , a rescue cat, and a purebred ragdoll. I learned some tricks of the trade along the way that makes me and my animals happy! I formally worked for a premier dog sitting company that serviced the Puget sound area. I worked with cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, bunnies, and all type of attitudes as well (; I worked with timid dogs and dogs that were slightly more aggressive. I learned how to behave with both so we both can be happy and have a good time together (: patience is certainly key! I am well versed with many harnesses and leashes so you can rest assured your dog will be secure on any walks outside your home. I have worked with dogs from chihuahua's to great danes. All sizes and breeds are welcome. I also have worked with animals who need medication administered. Whether your animals need a pill, ointment rubbed in, or a liquid medication, I do it all! I am very active so if you want your dog to go for runs, I am your gal. Want your dog do go to parks or trails? Done deal with me (: whatever exercise you want your dogs to have I will do. Let me know what you need for visits and I will let you know if I am available during those times (: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. Whatever animals I care for, I treat them like family, because they deserve to be loved unconditionally. I would love to get to know your special family members (: I work part time in yelm. I can do walks most morning and evening, and occasionally during the day if I am home.Just let me know what fits best for you! I treat all pets like they are my own so pet safety is very important to me. I pay special attention to details given so I can best take care of your pets.

About: Passionate and devoted animal lover with years of experience in pet care, including personal ownership and watching friends' pets. Your furry companions will receive trusted and compassionate care. Previously a Forester, now currently in between jobs, so I have a decent amount of free time while pursuing some side quests to get by. Depending on what is needed specifically from the pet owner I will tailor my approach according to that, but giving them the same amount of care and attention that I do with all critters.

About: I am a responsible mother looking to earn extra money to finish college. I have had dogs and cats all my life, so you can feel safe trusting me with your babies! I volunteer once a week to feed a local feral cat colony. I also ran a non-profit animal rescue for 5 years, where I cared for up to 75 animals at once. I currently have several rescue roosters, barn cats, indoor cats and one dog in my care. I have a soft spot for the disabled, injured and elderly. 🧡 I am currently a student through WSU Global so all I need is WiFi in order to stay in your home and care for your fur babies. Because of my decades of experience working with and training my own dogs, there isn’t much I can’t do for them. I can crate them or give pills if you need me to. Probably wouldn’t be able to feed a raw diet though.
