Professional sitter in Seattle

Pet care experience

I recently moved to Seattle for work! I’ve grown up with and around dogs and absolutely love them. I’ve also trained my dog on my own so I could try and teach your pup some new tricks if you’d like! As a recent graduate that just started my first job, I am not in a position to own a dog of my own so I would love to spend time walking or playing with yours. I got my dog when she was 2 months old so I have experience caring for a puppy. I have also volunteered at PAWS in my hometown for around 7 years and have had some pet sitting experience in state college, PA. I have learnt a Lot about dogs throughout this past decade and I try to keep myself updated on new research that comes out involving pets. This past year I learnt a lot about positive reinforcement training as well as mental stimulation for pets and I’m looking forward to incorporating that in my pet sitting adventures!

Divya was a great house sitter for Joey! She stayed at our home over the weekend and sent us a lot of updates. She spent a lot of time walking and playing with Joey and teaching him tricks. She was also great about following our feeding instructions as well as instructions about how to leave him alone, since he has some mild separation issues. Our house was just as we had left it and we would love to have Divya sit for us again.

Safety, trust & environment

I typically only pet-sit in your home as that’s the environment that your pet is used to and their comfort and happiness is the most important to me.

Information Divya A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know important things about your dog before our pet-sitting appointment. I want to provide the best possible service for your dog and I really appreciate honesty beforehand in terms of expectations from me so we can determine if I’m the right fit for your pup!

A typical day

I’m a big advocate for providing dogs with mental stimulation so I can do additional things like stuff kongs for your dog with dog-safe foods (that you approve ofc!) & take them on “sniffaris” where they just get to sniff and explore. I also love training dogs and would love to work with your dog on fun training sessions with commands you approve of. Please note- my training approach is positive reinforcement training ONLY and I will not use shock collars/e-collars etc. If you have a puppy I would be happy to work with them on socialization as well :)
