“Alexys is amazing with my dog, she’s very punctual and through and gives my pup so much love and she enjoys all her walks with her! Highly recommended:)”

Samantha H.

“She is awesome with my dog, very patient with him being so excitable. She walked him, played ball with him and even took him to stalk birds which are three of his favourite things to do! She also was comfortable with carrying his water bottle because he is a thirsty boy. My dog came back tired! Recommend 100% Will book again for more walks! thanks Noelle!”

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always had pets as part of my family, so caring for them comes naturally to me. Over the years, I've gained hands-on experience raising and training reactive dogs, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, reading body language, and creating a calm, positive environment. I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's unique personality and needs, whether they love adventure, prefer a quiet routine, or need a little extra understanding. When your pet is in my care, you can feel confident they're being treated like one of my own. I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while following your instructions and routines closely. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings whenever possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walks, allowing your pet to stay in the familiar environment of their own home while maintaining their normal routine. During every visit, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals (if requested), and lots of care and affection. I currently do not offer pet boarding or doggy daycare because I have a reactive dog at home, and I want to ensure the safest and least stressful experience for all pets involved. You can count on me to treat your home with respect, follow your care instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.

“Thank you for the last minute booking. We hope to book again in the future!”

About: I grew up working on a farm! Not only am I familiar with training puppies and caring for cats, I also know my way around a barn. I have time in the early mornings and evenings to visit your pets! I am also able to house sit and provide daily exercise to any extent you need! I love to go on walks and adventuring in parks. But I also love just sitting on the couch with a dog or cat :) I am flexible and ready to meet whatever your pet needs!

“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! My name is Megan, I am 27yrs old and just moved to Blaine from Issaquah! I have two pups, Kona and Dixie, who keep me active and moving every day! I have owned animals my entire life as well as worked on multiple farms caring for animals such as horses, donkeys, pigs, goats, chickens, and ducks! I love working with animals and making sure they stay active and healthy. I am currently looking at going back to school part-time and looking for a job that can supplement the free time that I will have from that. My classes would be online so I will be able to make my own schedule so I will be able to make anything work! I have a fenced yard but would prefer to only care for animals in their own home. One of my dogs is quite scared of other dogs even though his best friend is our 3yr old puppy. But, to ensure the safety and comfortability of both my dogs and yours, I believe that care in their own home where they are the most comfortable and at ease is the best.

“Morgan is amazing! She really helped me out when I was in a pinch with a last minute booking. Even interrupted her Valentine’s Day plans to chat with me. Would love to work with her again.”

Tawny P.

“My dog loves Janette! She’s always on time- very reliable. I will keep re-booking with her because she’s been so great.”

About: I'm in college, studying to be a Veterinary Technician. I've had many types of animals and I've been caring for animals as a way to make money for several years- predominantly dogs. I am free on weekends. I'm usually free on Wednesday and Monday. I'm available at 1pm on Tuesdays, and I'm available on Fridays and Thursdays after 4pm. My cat is indoors, and I make a great deal of effort to keep her that way (she tries to escape a lot). I make sure to keep her happy and entertained, just as I do with my client's pets. When I am in a client's home I ensure adequate care and their animal's safety.

“Judith has been a lifesaver for me recently as I move into my new home. I’ve been back and forth between homes and with little notice she helped support my pups and me on several occasions now. Will definitely utilize her services again!”

About: I've had all kinds of pets from Henrietta the beta fish I tended to in middle school, Poppy an adorable Havanese dog that I cared for from ages 9-21, Rice Krispie a pit bull mix and Misty a mix, both who I fostered in college, and last but certainly not least Jinx and Binx two dapper tuxedo cats I lived with fall through winter quarter of my senior year! Even as a child, I've found myself drawn to animals and would love to show some affection to your pet! I currently have very open and flexible availability, allowing me to tailor my schedule to you and your pet’s needs. I am willing to work with any availability spots suggested. I have a large, fenced yard with plenty of space to play and explore. My neighborhood is pet-friendly with plenty of bushes and trees to mark as territory. A lovely location and my extensive experience caring for cats and dogs will be perfect for your pet!

About: I've never not had a pet growing up, they were my responsibility in order to keep the pet it's harder to see a animal hurt then a human. I currently am looking for a full time job but this was a perfect opportunity to become more active and to meet possibly fall in love with more pets I will not be able to take in your pet cause my home is just not big enough but I most definitely wouldn't be opposed to going to their house, will respect you your home and your pet, Go through expectations and responsibilities

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child- my dad rescued my dog, rosie, when I was 9 years old. I know all of the responsibilities that come with raising a furry friend, and I will gladly face any challenges in order to improve my skills and service. I am honored to work alongside you, as well as your dog. I work part-time, as I attend high school. I am avaliable 5-7am and 4-12pm on weeknights. I am also avaliable to spend the night, too. I care for dogs, as cats are not yet in my field of experience. I am able to run, walk, feed, love and give attention to your fur babies as needed. In addition, I am prepared for any mess and will always leave the house tidied and cleaned up.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs for the past several years. I’ve worked with all sorts of pets; from pitty puppies to senior chihuahuas, from kittens to houseplants, as a pet parent myself, I know what it means to be able to leave your fur babies in the care of someone who cares about their wellbeing as much as you do. I am a substitute teacher, meaning my schedule is flexible according to YOUR needs and wants for your ideal pet sitter/walker. The nature of my career allows me to be fully flexible! This means that your pet gets the best care possible, and is my number one priority while they are in my care. In my home, my pets are my babies. I am very particular about who I entrust them with while I am away, so I understand the stress that goes into finding the ideal sitter. I do not use loud voices or sounds with animals, and believe that motivators and positive reinforcements work best. If they do something that might impact the space, I will reach out to you and troubleshoot to the best of my ability, NOT display anger toward them. I am attentive to all grooming and hygiene habits, and even if I am just scheduled for feedings I promise to give them some love and affection/playtime if it seems they’re interested. I truly pet sit for the love of animals and want to make the process as easy and fun as possible for all pets and their humans!

About: Hi there! I'm Jessie, and I'm absolutely passionate about animals. Currently, my work allows me to operate from home as a photographer and social media manager, with the added perk of teaching yoga once a week. My love for pets runs deep; I had the privilege of sharing 15 wonderful years with a small toy poodle who was my constant companion and the love of my life. I miss her dearly, which is why I've decided to get into pet sitting! I genuinely adore all types of dogs, as long as they are on the quieter side, don't have a tendency to nip, and are house-trained. If your furry friend is calm and friendly, you can count on me to take them for leisurely walks, provide regular check-ins, and ensure they are well-fed and cared for during my stay. Your pet's comfort and well-being are my top priorities. I can't wait to shower them with the same love and attention I gave to my beloved poodle. Let's arrange a meet-and-greet so we can get to know each other better and discuss how I can provide the best care for your furry family member. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet soon! Best regards, Jessie My schedule is flexible and open at the moment! I work part-time and can choose my hours so I'm happy to cater to your needs. I will have to care for pets in my client's home since my roommate already has a few cats. I am happy to come to your home as needed.

About: I've had pets my entire life, so as soon as I was old enough, I started dog sitting and walking. I love animals of all kind and can't wait to meet yours! The following is my technical experience in the field: Maggie (my own dog): Maggie was the third dog I've ever had and the first of which I was able to truly help with. We got her when she was a puppy and she's a Vizsla so she has always had boundless energy. I helped with her training when she was a puppy and she's pulled the leash her whole life so I have experience with that as well. Again, she has always been extremely energetic. In sum, Maggie has helped me learn how to: - Care for a puppy - Walk a dog that pulls - Entertain a dog with boundless energy Kona My professional experience with dog walking and sitting was with an elder dog named Kona. I worked with him for just about 4 years part time. Kona had two parents who both worked full time jobs and had a horse at another location so I would go over when they were gone all day and spend time with him, take him on short walks, and occasionally to the dog park. Kona really helped me to understand the intricacies of working with an elder dog, and although he's gone now, I think about the time I spent with him regularly. Kona helped me learn how to: - Care for an elder dog - Stimulate a dog with limited ability _ Read a dogs body language and have patience with them I am currently in full time school and not working in a formal setting. I am unavailable most mid-days however I'm completely free on the weekends. The following is a schedule of my open availability: Monday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Tuesday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Wednesday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Thursday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Friday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Saturday: 6:00am-10:00pm Sunday: 6:00am-10:00pm As a pre-note, I wanted to say that I have an official work resume with references if you would like to see that before we meet in person. Dog Walking I do not have any supplies of my own however I have used many different types of leash and harness in the past. I am physically able and comfortable walking long or short distances at varying paces. On longer walks, I will carry water and dog bags with my the entire time. Pet Sitting I will maintain your pets schedule and follow any guidelines of being in your space. I do not offer dog sitting in my home as I live in a building with three other people, I would be more than happy to watch your dog in your home. I am open to meeting your dog with you there before the official sitting date as I know some dogs are sensitive to new people. I am comfortable feeding and entertaining your pup as I have been around dogs my entire life. I will also be aware of any emergency contact information that would be necessary in an emergency. House Sitting I will ensure the home is secure, and perform basic tasks like collecting mail, watering plants, and maintaining cleanliness. I understand that I will be in your space and am open to following any rules you might have for your home.
