About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up in a small mountain town with lots of dogs and lots of land! My favorite thing as a child was taking my dogs on walks or runs in the mountains. Since moving to Seattle I have primarily only dog sat/dog walked for friends, family, and coworkers and am now looking to expand and open myself up to the vast network of Seattle dogs! I find myself spending all my free time outside, whether it be exploring the mountains or just running through discovery park. Time spent outside is always made better with the company of a dog though which is why I am offering the service of dog walking/running I have three months off before I start a new job so have lots of time and flexible availability for pet care! Able to go on long walks or hikes I have a fully fenced back yard and have one dog and one cat at my house! Sometimes I have my partners dog as well

“Carly was amazing! Very flexible as I had to schedule the visits last minute. Excellent communication and she took lots of photos of my two boys! My one cat is very skittish and tends to hide around new people but he came out for her and let her give him pets! They clearly liked and trusted her. Very grateful to know they were taken such good care of while I was away. Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Noah was amazing with our two pups while we were away on vacation. He gave us confidence in his care from the moment we introduced him to the dogs. Will be using him for all of our trips!”

“Adrian saved the day for us! We needed someone to take care of Bruce last-minute, and we were so glad that we could get someone that Bruce already knows and loves and is so professional. Thanks Adrian! I am a Rover employee.”

October 2026-September 2027 Seattle area. I already have 2 confirmed housesits and am currently interviewing for more. One of the benefits of the area that I live is that we are surrounded by nature so there are many animals here. Sometimes when I open my front door in the morning there are deer in front of my gate waiting to see what will happen at breakfast time. Travel/Work/experience: 1993-1994 Worked for a historical museum in Ukraine. Was responsible for finding and conducting video interviews with Ukrainian Holocaust survivors. Specifically we were looking for survivors of Einsatzgruppen events. 1994-1995 High school History/English teacher in Bratislava, Slovakia. 1995-1997 Teacher and then manager of a private language school in Moscow, Russia. 1997-1998 Manager of a bar/restaurant, Koh Samet, Thailand. I ran a beachfront bar with 15 bungalows and a small restaurant. Was responsible for all operations, payroll, staffing etc. 50-100 customers daily. 1998-1999 History/English instructor for City University of Seattle. 1999-2002 Worked as a deckhand in Alaska on Salmon and Crab boats. Yes, exactly as in the Deadliest Catch but 7 years before the show started. Was on my boat each year for between 8-10 months. 2002-present. Owner of a private Language School. I have slowly grown my school into one of the largest language schools in Slovakia. I currently have a staff of over 50 teachers teaching English, German, French, Russian, Spanish, Italian as well as Slovak for the many foreign managers living and working in multinational companies. My school cooperates with most of the large multinational companies in the area. I also cooperate quite closely with the local and state police departments as well as the mayor and city council all of whom are my students. While I will be house-sitting for you I will be managing my private Language School online. I will always have time to take care of the homes that I sit for as well as the pets regular routine. I always try my best to maintain the same pet schedule. 1st of all I LOVE ANIMALS! Our home in Slovakia is located up on the hill in the woods overlooking the lake. We have a large orchard and our nearest neighbor is about 300 m from us. We currently have 7 cats in various phases of either living, hanging out, or adding us to their busy social/feeding routine. During the Summer I take care of 2 friends' homes so I take care of their dogs, cats, fish, and even a very old turtle. as well. I travel to the U.S. regularly to visit friends/family each and this website is a perfect fit for my lifestyle as I manage my school remotely. To be quite honest, for all of the travelling I have done over the past 30 years, I have not travelled nor experienced the U.S. much which is another reason I have joined this website. I thought it would be a great way to see the U.S. as well as spend time with lots of great pets! I could take you anywhere you wanted on the Budapest metro blindfolded but have never been to Washington D.C. for example. Please feel free to contact me so we can speak in person about your pets, home and your requirements.

“Did a wonderful job looking after our cats for two weeks! I’m so impressed she got both cats (with very different personalities) to love her so much!”

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid, I can navigate puppy-hood to senior care. I have experience with big and small, separation anxiety, on and off leash behavior issues. As for cats, I didn't find my feline affinity until a bit later in life. I had my own cat (miss him so!) and I have volunteered at PAWS Cat City for more than a decade where I assist with adoptions, cleaning, cat socialization and care. I even volunteer and help out with the care of local mini horses. Can you believe there are mini horses in the city?!? I have finite bandwidth but I will communicate clearly to be sure that I am a right fit for your pet. I am eager to help pet parents and provide quality care to their furkids. I live in Madison Valley and have a single family home with a completely fenced in back yard with lots of terrain and territory to explore.

“Zan was fantastic with our kitties while visiting twice a day during our most recent 8 day trip. She shows up consistently, communicates proactively and goes the extra mile to deal with accidents like cat barf on a rug. Loved getting photos and little videos of the beasts regularly. Would definitely recommend her as our home was clean and our kitties were relaxed and happy when we got home.”

Tom F.

“Easy to work with! Took great care of my cats!”

Amy H.

“Roman was fantastic with our pug Boyd while we needed a little extra help during the day to get him out and fed. It was very clear all of our instructions were followed, Boyd got lots of attention and love, and we didn't even have to think twice about whether he was situated at home! Thanks Roman!”

Erin P.

“Ruth and Rachid were amazing cat sitters for our trip!!! Our cat Ryuji absolutely loved them and we will not hesitate to have them take care of her again in the future.”

Tiffany B.

“Natalia took excellent care of my elderly cat while I was away, including making sure she took her medicine and got all the food and attention she needed. I will definitely book again.”

Beth H.

“We have two dogs that are polar opposites with one being reactive and the other having separation anxiety. Our first overnight away with a sitter in the home went spectacular 10/10 recommend. Came home to both dogs calm and relaxed. Nikki is the best!”

About: I have had pets my whole life, grew up with a medium sized dog and have had cats through my life. very comfortably with animals and enjoy quality time bonding with them/on walks. will treat your pet like they were my own!:) Location: I live in Capital Hill and am happy traveling to UW and Arboretum areas as well. Thank you in advance! I am a college student and usually have a lot of free time during my week, as my class schedule is light. I am available for walks and check ins at varying times throughout the week and on the weekends. I always respect that this is the pets space, meeting them where they are at. recognizing their language if they need a bathroom break, play time, one on one affection, etc.

“Rose is incredible! She came through in a pinch when we needed someone day of, and was just wonderful with our dog. We’re lucky to have her as as a walker.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I enjoy building trust with each dog and creating a calm, positive environment where they feel safe and happy. Whether we're playing, walking, or just relaxing, I strive to make their time with me feel like a fun visit with a friend. I am working part time and flexible. I would prefer long walks and potty breaks. I am also available to provide shuttle to and from the vet. I don’t have a fenced yard but live right next to a park and Lake Washington. As a result, time spent outdoors will be accommodated by leash.
