I provide full-time, in-home pet care, offering a calm, structured daily routine with attentive supervision and meaningful companionship. Because I’m home and nearby, dogs in my care receive regular check-ins, frequent potty breaks, and enrichment tailored to their individual needs. ⸻ Weekdays & Weekends My schedule is designed around the dogs in my care. Each day is balanced between walks, enrichment, and rest, with activities adjusted to your dog’s energy, comfort, and routine. ⸻ Daily Walks & Enrichment Primary walks typically occur mid-morning or early afternoon, when parks are quieter.

Safety, trust & environment

Providing a safe, calm, and well-managed environment is the foundation of my care. I intentionally limit capacity and follow clear health and safety standards to ensure every dog feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for. Experience You Can Rely On With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage—from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. My approach is patient, attentive, and grounded in understanding canine behavior and individual needs. Medical & Routine Care I’m comfortable administering oral medications and supporting dogs who require routine health-related care. I follow owner instructions carefully and maintain consistent schedules to minimize stress. Thoughtfully Managed Environment I specialize in small to medium dogs (under 100 lbs). My home is intentionally set up to support calm interactions, easy supervision, and safe movement throughout the space. Health & Safety Standards To protect the wellbeing of every guest, I require: • Up-to-date Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella vaccinations • A recent clean fecal test These standards help ensure a healthy, low-risk environment for all dogs in my care.

Information Bella A. would like to know about your pet

Important to Know Before Your Dog’s Stay To provide the safest and most comfortable experience, I take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and needs in advance. Before our first visit or stay, I’ll ask for a few details to ensure your dog settles in easily and feels at home. Please be prepared to share: • Any medical conditions, medications, or health considerations • Feeding schedule, portions, and dietary preferences • Behavioral quirks (for example: sensitivity to new environments, leash reactivity, or handling preferences) • How your dog typically interacts with other animals • Favorite toys, games, or calming routines This information allows me to create a personalized daily routine that supports your dog’s comfort, confidence, and overall well-being from day one. Drop-in and dog walking visits located more than a 15-minute walk from my area in Redmond may include a travel surcharge depending on the distance. Please message me to confirm before booking. By booking with me, you automatically agree that photos and videos of your pet may be taken and shared on my rover page and social media for promotional purposes. If you prefer your pet not be featured, please let me know in advance.

A typical day

Each day follows a calm, predictable rhythm designed around your dog’s comfort, energy level, and individual needs. Because I’m home full-time, dogs receive attentive supervision and a balanced mix of activity, enrichment, and rest. Morning The day begins with a structured morning walk through the local neighborhood or a nearby park, helping dogs settle into the day with gentle exercise and fresh air. Walks & Outdoor Time Primary walks typically include Marymoor Park or scenic Eastside trails, chosen during quieter times of day and paced to your dog’s preferences and stamina. Enrichment & Engagement Throughout the day, dogs enjoy mental enrichment such as light training refreshers, interactive puzzle toys, and positive reinforcement activities that support confidence and calm behavior. Indoor Comfort & Rest Indoor time includes supervised play, calm interaction, and access to cozy resting areas for naps and relaxation. I prioritize downtime just as much as activity to prevent overstimulation. Safety & Environment Care takes place on the first floor of a quiet condo, allowing for easy supervision and access to a fenced on-site area for quick, safe potty breaks and fresh air between walks

Structured Walks & Training

Pet care experience

Eastside Pet Care Expert dog training is thoughtfully woven into every aspect of care. Through refined, reward-based guidance, dogs develop calm behavior, reliable leash manners, and lasting habits—all within a structured, low-stress environment designed for their success. A private, licensed, bonded, and insured in-home boarding and daycare experience, tailored for dogs who benefit from consistency, discretion, and individualized attention. With over 20 years of professional experience in dog care, including rescue and foster work, I specialize in puppies, senior dogs, and dogs requiring a higher level of structure or behavioral support. Each dog’s routine is intentionally designed to support emotional balance, confidence, and overall well-being. I host only one dog or a very small, carefully matched group at a time, ensuring a calm atmosphere and a truly personalized level of care. Daily life includes multiple structured, leashed walks and enriching outings to serene local trails such as Marymoor Park and East Redmond, complemented by rest, enrichment, and attentive, one-on-one care. This is a quiet, home-based alternative to traditional boarding where dogs are not simply supervised, but deeply understood, gently guided, and exceptionally well cared for.
