Barak was absolutely fantastic with my dog! Having a high-energy mix of Belgian Malinois, German Shepherd, and Australian Shepherd means finding the right sitter is never easy, but Barak handled him brilliantly. He was incredibly attentive, gave great advice, and knew exactly how to channel and manage that intense working-breed energy throughout the stay. His own dog was also an amazing companion for mine. I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again and highly recommend Barak to any dog owner!

Barak is a fantastic dog sitter. Communication was great he sent lots of updates and made me feel like I made the right decision immediately! My pup came home happy, tuckered out from lots of exercise and funny enough he didn’t want to get in the car he was happy being park of Barack’s pack. Made me smile! Highly recommended

Barak took care of my pup like a professional dog herder. He was very active and knew exactly how to keep her busy and attended to any of her doggy needs. Highly recommend him and will definitely have him watch my dog again!

His deep understanding of dog psychology, body language, and pack dynamics made all the difference. He brings a calm, assertive energy that dogs naturally gravitate toward and respect. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and intuitive sitter.

Schedule

Finally working primarily from home, which gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day. On weekdays, I naturally take 2 to 3 walk breaks that are perfect for keeping a dog active. My weekends are highly active, i love taking dogs along for runs, bike rides in the mountain, followed by a fun trip to a massive dog park like Marymoor to burn off any leftover socializing needs.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities. In my home, I have a yard and amazing friendly dog to keep your pup entertained. I can also easily accommodate crating if your dog prefers it (mine dose) I keep a close eye on your pet, and ensure they are always safe, secure, balanced and comfortable.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me focuses on keeping your dog both physically active and mentally stimulated. We will play engaging interactive games, take leisurely sniff-walks around the neighborhood, and go on longer adventures to explore the large nearby park.
