Pet care experience

We love dogs!

Hi- here is an update (September 10th, 2024). We have been in Seattle for over 6 years. We would love to look after your dog. Your dog will be well cared for as we both work from home. We are often available during holidays when it is hard to find dog sitters. We have 2 kids who have extra curricular activities which means we are not home all the time so we cannot offer constant care. Why I love dog sitting I have always been a dog lover and lover of all animals. I had a dog which I rescued from the Animal Humane Society for 7 years. We have been regular sitters on Rover. We love to interact with dogs and expose our daughter (who is now 9) and our son (5) to them. Both kids love dogs and are very sweet to them! About my yard We have a nice backyard which is great for dogs who like to chase tennis balls. It is a fenced yard so no chance of escaping.

Alex and his family did a great job taking care of my Charlie-dog. Alex provided daily updates and photos. I will definitely rebook with him the next time I need someone to care for my dog. Thanks Alex!

Alex and family did a great job keeping us updated about how our dog was doing throughout her stay. It was really nice having her stay in a home environment similar to her regular space. We'd love to have Daphne stay with Alex and family again!

Great family. Loved having the whole family involved with love and care for our Sully. They were prompt and responsive with their communication.
