Pet care experience

Cuddles and care for your furry fam

We're new to Seattle after moving from North Carolina, and we'd love to meet some new four-legged friends! Between the two of us, we've spent our lives around animals. We both grew up with dogs as beloved family members, and today we share our home with cats and a rabbit. While we adore our own pets, we miss the joy of spending time with dogs and would love to give yours the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Lucas is a former dog trainer with experience understanding canine behavior and reinforcing good habits using positive interactions. Des is happiest with a tennis ball in hand and is always ready for a game of fetch, a long walk, or plenty of belly rubs and cuddles. We enjoy caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to gentle senior companions and everyone in between. We also have experience with cats, rabbits, and other small animals. We're comfortable administering oral medications and have experience giving subcutaneous fluids to senior cats, so we're happy to care for pets with extra medical needs. Although we can't host pets in our apartment, we're available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your home. We'll follow your pet's routine closely, treat your home with respect, and send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing they're in caring, capable hands. Every pet is unique, and we'll make sure yours receives the love, patience, and individualized care they deserve. We can't wait to meet you and your floofy family member!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my #1 priority when it comes to my own pets and it will be with yours as well! Dogs will always be on a non-retractable leash (I have my own, if you do not) and we will be sure to follow whatever house rules you have in place. Cats will never be allowed outside unless that is something you prefer and specifically request.

Lucas and Des have been taking wonderful care of our three pups. We were so nervous about having to leave them at home during our workday. The doggies truly like them and I am sure they look forward to their visits. 10/10!

0 complaints about Desiree & Lucas! I could tell our golden pup was very well taken care of by the updates and pictures provided during their service. Will definitely Book with them again in the future. :)

They were great watching our 3 pets for a week! They provided good communication and pictures and kept our babies safe.

Des and Lucas were excellent caretakers for my pup. It was her first time being away from us and she (and I) had a lot of anxiety, but it was so nice to see how comfortable she was getting with them. They were also very communicative and reliable! I will 💯 rebook again!!!
