Reliable, Loving Pet Care That Keep
I have been dog walking and house sitting throughout the Seattle area for the past four years, caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Over that time, I have looked after playful puppies, energetic young dogs, mellow companions, and lovable senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. As an outdoor enthusiast, I genuinely enjoy going on walks and spending time outside, which makes dog walking a natural fit for me. I am comfortable with high-energy dogs who need longer walks, playtime, and stimulation, but I also understand that some dogs prefer a slower pace, a calm stroll, or a relaxing day at home. I take each pet’s routine seriously and understand how important consistency is for their comfort and well-being. I have cared for dogs with very regimented schedules, including specific feeding times, medication routines, walk schedules, and bedtime habits. I am organized, dependable, and happy to follow detailed instructions so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. My schedule is flexible, and I am typically available during the week from 10 AM to 10 PM, unless I am staying overnight with pets. I may also be available on weekends depending on scheduling. In addition to dogs, I am happy to care for other pets as well, including cats and other household companions. Whether your dog needs an active walk, companionship during the day, overnight care, or someone reliable to keep their routine on track, I will treat your pets with patience, attention, and genuine care.

Safety, trust & environment
I tailor my care to each pet’s personality, energy level, curiosity, and routine, as well as the owner’s specific preferences. Some dogs need more hands-on attention, supervision, playtime, or structure, while others do best with light monitoring, calm companionship, and a more relaxed environment. Whether I am providing a walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting in a client’s home, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, crate or bedtime routines, and any house rules. I understand that every pet and every household is different, so I adjust my level of involvement based on what works best for the dog, the owner, and the service being provided. My goal is to keep pets happy, secure, and on their normal routine while giving owners peace of mind.
Ratings and reviews
Brian took such great care of Reese and Rusty while we were away. He made sure they got plenty of walks, attention, and love, and it gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. He also took wonderful care of our home and kept everything in great shape. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the animals he watches, and we really appreciated the updates and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust Brian again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet and house care.
Brian did a great job giving my big, senior dog a good workout. He was very reliable and responsible, and made himself available on short notice. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.
I would have liked a bit more consistent communication/pictures, but I think Brian took good care of Walter and I would hire him again.
Brian was lovely to work with. Super easy to communicate with, and made sure Lincoln was taken care of. I had some unexpected changes to my travel plans, and Brian was willing and able to adjust his visits to accommodate my unexpected delay in travel. I would absolutely recommend Brian to watch your dog!
Brian was great with our two large dogs! We would love to book with him again!
Brian did a good job with our dog! We received a couple photos while we were out and he made sure to take our dog out for bathroom breaks and give him a couple walks while we were away.
