About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve been the reliable friend people turn to when they’re away. Some of the routines look like: stopping in to feed pets, provide fresh water, clean up, and offer enrichment and play, and companionship so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also have experience house sitting and staying overnight for up to four nights, making sure pets feel safe, settled, and cared for in their own environment. I’ve been around animals since I was about 10 years old, including golden retrievers, labs, and cats, and I often ask to say hello when I see a furry friend out and about. I welcome different temperaments and adjust myself to meet them where they’re comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so fur babies feel secure, seen, and cared for while their best friend is away. I am available all days of the week, between 9:00 am-6:00 pm, can provide overnight care, please send me a message. (Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat) The goal is calm, consistency, and reading pet cues. 1. Follow their routine exactly Pets feel safest with predictability. Feed at the same times Use the same food amounts and bowls Keep walks/playtime similar to what they’re used to Even small changes can make sensitive pets anxious. 2. Do a careful first check-in When I arrive: I look for water level, food, accidents, or damage I observe their behavior (hiding, excited, nervous, clingy) I let them come to me rather than forcing interaction. 3. I arrive with a calm presence Many pets don’t need constant stimulation, they need steady companionship. I prefer to sit quietly near them, talk softly and let shy pets approach me on their terms 4. Exercise + enrichment (tailored to each pet) Dogs: walks, sniff time, fetch (if they enjoy it) Cats: wand toys, gentle play, window time I may suggest to keep sessions short if they get overstimulated 5. I like to help keep the home clean and safe by scooping litter boxes daily (sometimes twice per day), pick up wrappers or food items immediately, wipe paws if needed after walks, and keep doors locked and secure at all times 6. Respect their boundaries This is a big one for trust: I try not to force picking up or petting and watch for signs like tail flicking, hiding, freezing, or overstimulation. I let them decompress alone if needed. 7. I love the saying, “Leave things better than you found them” My fur friends owners say they appreciate: Clean bowls and litter areas, a tidy feeding/walking area, and the notes about how they did during the visit 8. I communicate clearly Send updates like: “Fed, walked, and doing well,” Photos (if allowed) and any changes in behavior or appetite
“Leah is very responsive, getting right back to me when I contact her, which I really appreciate. She gave Josie a lovely walk, and then fed her when she got back. She took very good care of Josie, and I will definitely use her again.”
“Kerry has been excellent! She seems to genuinely care about my dog and has been amazing communicating with us about how his walks went. I would love to have Kerry take care of our dog in the future.”
“My dog Freya is very particular about the humans she likes and she immediately took to Hunter. Hunter is super knowledgeable when it comes to animal behavior and she is amazing with Freya. Every time she sends a pic of their walks Freya is always smiling. We love Hunter and so happy to have found her 💜”
“Ana is absolutely wonderful! She’s been so great in making sure my pup Rocco is getting is daily exercise. She’s very friendly, outgoing, professional and does a great job with picture updates! Rocco comes back happy and sleepy every time. 5/5 definitely recommend!!”
About: I grew up around dogs and have been pet-sitting regularly since I graduated college. I currently work at Mud Bay, the local pet store, and my knowledge and love for cats and dogs has increased exponentially. I’m patient, gentle, and get along with every dog I’ve ever met :) I work 25-30 hours a week, I have a car, and I’m willing to help care for your pets whenever you need! Because I work the closing shift, I’m most available in the mornings and afternoon. I’ll always have treats on me from my job! I helped my family train our two dogs, I’m used to watching over sick or elderly pets as well, and I’m great about sticking to a routine.
“Very professional and we’re able to handle my German shepherd easily. Great communication as well, I would highly recommend for walking your dogs”
About: I make sure to match with the dog’s energy, depending on whether they want a walk, play, or just a steady presence. I provide updates with photos and videos so that you can see how your baby is actually doing. I’ll make sure to keep their tails wagging while their favorite human is away (and hopefully become their second favorite)! There is always at least a person in the house to take care of the pets, with the exception of a few hours if we go out together on evenings or weekends. I am personally available almost all day everyday to keep your dogs comfortable. As my dog and cat’s favorite human, I always make sure they are doing well and dedicated daily play time to each of them individually. I have a fenced background so the dogs can play outside as long as they want to. If I go to your house, I will also play with them in addition to feeding, taking them to potty, etc. I treat my pets as my babies, and will make sure your babies are also taken care of when you are not around.
“I would give 6 stars if I could. Responsive, timely, friendly and most importantly, Murphy loved her. She was professional through and through and really gave Murphy the love she needed. We will be using her from here forward!”
“Shana has been walking my dog weekly for the past 6 months and I can genuinely say she’s everything you would want in a dog walker/sitter. Shana always gives a complete review with pictures where I can tell she really cares about the health and safety of my dog. It makes my day when I receive an update from their walks. She’s very responsive and flexible and stays on top of keeping my dogs walks scheduled. I feel my fur baby is in the best hands with her. I couldn’t recommend Shana more.”
About: I grew up on a ranch where we trained horses for barrel racing competitions. I have trained therapy animals and have also worked as an animal wrangler on film sets. I have experience with a wide variety of animals from handling rabbits to rattlesnakes, mustangs to puppies. I also studied photography and lighting design as an undergrad, so I may end up sending you a dozen photos of all your pup’s best angles. I'd love to play your pup's favorite game, walk to their favorite park, and ensure that they have as much fun as possible! I also have experience caring for dogs and puppies with more nuanced needs. I have helped deliver puppies and I have also taken care of dogs who are recovering from surgery. My schedule is very flexible. Feel free to reach out to ask if your pet needs some attention and I’d be happy to stop by. I always read the pet’s bio and instructions thoroughly to ensure safety and maximum fun for them. Having a pet myself, I know how important it is to have peace of mind.
“Allexis is the best dog walker I've ever had! She is so communicative, kind, caring and flexible. My dog has struggled with some big life changes and transitions we've been going through and Allexis has been patient and loving with her. I've seen a huge difference in my dog's demeanor since Allexis and I've so grateful!”
About: I've been around cats and dogs most of my life and have a deep love and affection for them. As well, I recently started volunteering at Seattle Humane. I'm currently doing this part time, so I'm pretty flexible on availability on weekdays between Monday-Thursday. Though, for drop-ins, my clearest availability is between 8am-2pm. But again, I’m flexible. I can do overnights between 5pm-9am. I try to bring a calm, kind demeanor to the environment to put the cat(s) at ease; I will scoop the litter box, feed them, and if they show interest, play with them, and if not, I give them their space!
“Erin has been wonderful to work with! Great communication on scheduling and feedback about my dogs. They loved her instantly on our meet and greet! Thank you Erin for taking care of them!”
About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely love! I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, so walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures with dogs are always fun for me. I’m comfortable around dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I’m always willing to adapt and learn the best ways to care for each pet’s individual needs. When I’m caring for your dog, they’ll have my full attention, patience, and affection to help them feel safe, happy, and loved. I also have a dog of my own, a 15-year-old Schnoodle who now spends most of his days happily napping and relaxing in his old age! I currently work remotely most days, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I’m happy to work around your schedule and adjust to your pet’s needs to provide dependable and convenient care. When caring for your pets in your home, I strive to provide personalized care based on your preferences and your pet’s individual routine and needs. My goal is to help your pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while maintaining the environment and routines they’re used to.

Emilia is great! Caring, reliable and professional. Rex couldn’t wait for his time with Emilia. She’s gentle, caring and natural with our Rex. She checks in with me for instructions and follows them strictly. She will be back to care for our Rex again soon! Thanks for everything you do for Rex. I know he’s safe, happy and loved while we are away.
Olivia was great. She was remarkably punctual, even though she had to come walk my dog three times/day. She is very friendly and obviously she and my hound really liked each other. My dog is usually uncomfortable going with people she doesn't know but took to Olivia right away. I am grateful for her care of my sweetheart and highly recommend her to everyone!
Allie took wonderful care of my two dogs!! I booked with her last minute for some dog walking help while my partner was out of town. She was an excellent communicator and on time for every walk. One of my dogs is nervous around strangers, but my dog warmed up to her right away! My dogs were happy and tuckered out after their nice long walks.
Rachel is amazing! She's great with my dogs, who are suspicious and standoffish with people they don't know. She is also just a lovely human! Last weekend, while on my trip, I discovered that I had mistakenly booked her to walk my dogs the following weekend, not the one I was gone. She was able to accommodate the last minute change, and was so kind about it. Rachel is the best :)
