Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong dog friend! She/her
I grew up with large dogs (Newfoundlands, labs), helped train service dogs for a year, and have been working as a dogwalker and sitter here in Seattle for the past two years! I feel comfortable with all sizes and demeanors. I fall in love with every dog I meet and I aim to and make their stay with me as awesome as possible.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Gray was great! She was responsive, easy to coordinate with, and Teddy liked her! :) Thanks!
Gray was great with my dog Rio! She sent lots of pics and updates, and it was clear Rio had a good time.
Gray was a great host for Cosmo, our busy Samoyed pup. She kept us regularly updated, asked questions, and made it a successful first stay away from home. He required extra attention and some creativity to maintain calm. We highly recommend Gray!
Gray was an incredible sitter for our little gemlin. This was the first time my partner and I needed to go out of town since we adopted CeiCei. As such, we were very worried about leaving her. Gray was incredibly understanding and accommodating. Upon meeting her we knew CeiCei was going to be in the best of arms. During our time away Gray was on top of communication and letting us know how CeiCei was settling in. She was also great with sending all the cute pictures of our fur baby. In each one CeiCei looked so relaxed and happy. I can’t recommend Gray enough. She is a genuine lover of animal. Your puppers will be in such safe and caring hands. Thank you so much Gray! And sorry about your dryer ball, LOL!
Super appreciative of Gray! Very communicative and flexible. Thank you for all your help with bobbin while he’s in his rebellious teenage puppy phase!
Great communicator, punctual, great with our dog who is fairly strong willed. Quickly got acquainted with our dog who was happy to go on her first walk with her. Will definitely use her again!

Schedule
I work from home as a journalist and writer (flexible hours), so I am happy to accommodate my clients’ needs. Just reach out a few days in advance, ideally!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My first priority will be your pet’s safety and happiness. I am a quiet, affectionate caretaker and want to ensure that your dog trusts me and feels safe with me above anything else. I love going on walks in parks and exploring new trails. If your dog is older or less mobile, I am also happy to take them on shorter outings or just chill with them in the home. Dogs are always welcome on furniture (beds, couch) in my apartment, but if that is not your wish, I’m happy to accommodate and keep them off furniture.
A typical day
I live right across from Woodland Park, so I’m there basically every day and love exploring trails with dogs. I don’t typically bring dogs to dog parks unless that’s an owner’s request. I wake up ~7am most days and go to bed around 11pm. While I will need to spend around 5 hours per day on my laptop during the standard workweek, the rest of the time I prefer to be active and outside.

- If your dog has any aggression issues or responds negatively to strangers in the house or on the street, please let me know ahead of time. Similarly, let me know if they have issues interacting with other dogs while on walks. Secondly, if your dog has bathroom accidents in the house or likes to chew furniture and household items, please let me know ahead of time!
