Adventure time- Your Pup's Paradise
Pet care experience
Follow your pup's adventures on my Instagram account @Monathemalamute (also check out my IG account to get a vibe for the kind of sitter I am- passionate about taking great care of dogs, attentive, loving, and a little "extra" when it comes to dogs! They're just so cute!) (*repeat clients: if I forgot to “lock in” the previous rate you paid, please message me!) In Short: My dog and I live alone in a spacious home in north Seattle. We have a big fenced back yard and I take my dog to the dog park or on hikes every weekend. I work Monday- Friday, 9-5, so I’m only able to watch potty trained dogs who are well behaved at home during the day. *update: as of March 2020, I work from home 80% of the week* My dog loves having another pup around to play with, we’d love to meet you! The Long Story: I am a social worker and dogs are my other passion in life. I have dog training experience and I have experience working with all different kinds of dogs. I raised my dog Mona from the time she was a puppy and have been dog sitting for many years, I'm open to watching small dogs to big dogs and almost every kind of dog in between; With a few exceptions when it comes to behaviors. I just ask that you try to be as transparent as possible about your dog's behavior before booking the stay! It will be less stressful for me and your dog if we both have all the facts. Please let me know if your dog has ever had a habit or "marking" inside, if they are prone to humping/ how they respond when redirected, if they've ever bitten anyone, and if they have exhibited any less than great behaviors on previous dog boarding stays. Almost every weekend I take my dog on hikes, and/or to the off leash dog parks and beaches. If you're anything like me, your dogs are your children and you want the best sitter possible for them. If your dog does well at off leash dog parks, they'll do great with me and Mona! I strive to "be the Rover sitter I would want watching my baby!" You can expect to receive lots of adorable pictures of your pup from me while you're away! I go above and beyond to get cute pics of your pooch because I know the struggle of receiving blurry photos of your precious baby when you're far away and missing them. I also love to make dog bandanna's, so you MAY return to a pup with a homemade bandanna. ;) HOUSE SITTING: Limited availability. I am able to house sit for short stays/ preferably if I can take my dog Mona with me. I'm a trustworthy sitter who takes the responsibility of caring for someone’s home and pets very seriously. I always vacuum and tidy up the home before my clients return and I send daily updates and photos. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you think I might be a good fit to watch your dog.
Reviews
Great to see him running & playing on the beach. Thank you!
We've used Haley multiple times and our corgi Zoe always has a great time! We love the photo updates and really appreciate Haley's flexibility on drop off and pick up times. We highly recommend Haley and will continue to use her in the future!
Haley is so understanding. My older furbaby has stayed with her several times for extended periods, and she loves it at Haley's home. My puppy, however, wreaked havoc during a one night visit. Haley was so understanding and made lemonade from lemons. Can't thank her enough!
Highly recommend! Great communication, flexible pick-up and drop-off. Haley sent us a lot of pics of our dog during her stay, which we appreciated.

Information Haley L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog: - has been known to resource guard (food aggression, toy/bone guarding) - is a male that has been known to attempt to mount other males, what does he do when he is redirected? - is prone to loose stool - doesn't like skateboards, men, dogs on the TV, etc - is allergic to anything - nips when running/playing with other dogs - doesn't like certain dog breeds - has separation anxiety - has been known to steal/eat things off high surfaces or from the trash can - has had recent surgery & if there is special care needed - other quirks? Also it helps me to know: What are your expectations for the stay? Do you have a specific number of trips to the dog park in mind? How often do you want updates?
A typical day
1-2 walks around the block a day plus 3-4 potty breaks in the yard. Weekends usually include a dog park trip (we go to the dog park A LOT!), Farmer's market with the dogs, dog friendly bar, and/or a hike with the dogs (we love to hike all year round- let us know if your pup doesn't like snow) Enormous collection of dog toys and treats (Food allergies? Let me know!) Snuggles on the couch in front of the fireplace in the winter Swimming in the Summer Occasional homemade dog treats and/or dog bandanas
