Experienced Sitter on Alki Ave

Pet care experience

I am a life long dog lover living in beautiful West Seattle. Before moving here for school back in 2013, my best friend was Golden Retriever named Prince (rest in peace) and I frequently dog/house sat for neighbors and family friends. Now, I have been dogsitting on top of full time work at various startups for the last few years. Prior to the pandemic's beginning in March 2020, this included almost daily bookings, some with recurring clients, and others more intermittent (check out my reviews!). Now that I am vaccinated, I'd love to cautiously start taking on clients again. Since I am working from home, I am a great fit for dogs in need of daycare, boarding, or housesitting. I'll always have time before, during, and after the workday to ensure your dog's needs are met and more. Send me a message if you'd like to book a service with me and include any details about date(s), time(s), your dog(s), and anything else you'd like me to know. I'll ask you any up front questions I have for you, and if the booking seems like a good fit for us both in theory, we can schedule a meet and greet. This is a 10-30 minute meet up with the owner, a sitter, and their dog. This provides a chance to go on a walk or just meet up, discuss the booking, and decide whether to confirm it. I'll have a set list of questions to go through with you to ensure I can provide your pup the best care possible. I will be updating my profile frequently to ensure that my services, pricing, and availability are always right, but please feel free to ask me if you have questions about any of these! It's my goal to be accessible and flexible for my clients, and I love discussing solutions to best fit everyone's needs. My Specialties: -Long walks and runs (up to 6 miles) -Cozy play days inside for less active or older dogs -Practicing tricks + reinforcing training -Trips to the dog park / socialization with other dogs (once your dog and I have a trusting relationship, I am great at managing play, keeping all parties safe, and sticking to any boundaries you/your dog have around this) -Less social outings (if your dog has any issues with socialization or can be triggered by other animals, I am also great at anti-social outings for exercise) -Building strong relationships, regardless of behavioral issues or past trauma in any dog's life Things we should chat about: -For boarding, I simply can't do some larger dogs at my current place. I'm hoping to change this in the future though. If you think your dog is on the edge of what works, let's talk about it! -Do you need pick up or drop off? Does your dog do well in cars or on public transit? I am not currently taking transit during the pandemic, but do share a car. Either way, I love ensuring my clients are able to get where they need to go and when comfortably. -My partner identifies as a man, so let me know if his presence could be an issue for your dog. This isn't an issue for me at all, I can work around it! This any any other triggers are just good for me to know as a sitter to give my clients the best experience possible.

Cielle is the best! This was the second time she watched my pup and this time for a few overnights. My dog Mylo was super comfortable and received plenty of walks and attention the whole time. I received updates with great photos throughout the stay. Really happy with the experience and I'm sure my dog Mylo was too!

Cielle was an amazing sitter!! Our pup is a bit shy and takes time to warm up to people and Cielle took the time to build a relationship with our dog and make him feel comfortable. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day and made sure our dog got all the exercise, food/water, and potty breaks that he needed. Thank you Cielle! We’ll definitely rebook!
