Hikes & Adventure in the Eastside

We live on a large dog-friendly property in the Kirkland Highlands which is perfect for happy dogs! We enthusiastically welcome puppies. Most of the pups we dog sit are repeat customers. Our goal is to integrate your pup into the family; we love ours a ton, so we don’t take this lightly. To that end, we keep the amount of dogs we board small and meet everyone before their first stay. We’ve been told we provide the perfect environment for introverted canines.📖 🐾 We both have a background in science and Kim is a certified massage therapist. She previously hosted an AirBnB experience called "Bodywork for Canines". 💆🏻‍♀️ 🐶 We are both animal lovers with many years of experience caring for dogs. Some highlights of our experience include caring for sharks in aquariums and canine circus training. If we can enrich and entertain an octopus, we can definitely make sure your dog enjoys their stay! 🐙 🐕 We find that dogs with families really miss their kids. Fear not, we have added one to our pack!👶🏻 🐩

Felt at ease knowing my pup was in good hands! Received many updates and pictures of their adventures. She has a bit of separation anxiety, but Kim and Ching took amazing care of her. And they have an awesome backyard!

Julius had another great stay with Kim & Ching. They provided great communication, lots of photos, and took him to several dog parks. We will definitely book with them again!

Kim and Ching did a wonderful job with our dog. They provided frequent pictures and did a lot of fun activities like going to the park and hiking. They were flexible and great to work with.

We require all pups staying with us to be healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, and socialized to dog park settings. We have a preference for dogs with good recall off-leash: this allows us to take pack hikes. Are there any quirks, likes, or dislikes we should be aware of? Does your pup need medication or have any dietary restrictions? What makes them happy? What is their greatest motivator (food, play, praise)? We are experienced and comfortable with a range of sizes and play styles as long as they are unquestionably friendly towards dogs and humans, including children. Dominant dogs are not a good fit for our household. Please be honest about any behavioral considerations, so we can properly accommodate and make their stay a positive experience. Please note that Neo is not neutered: if you have an unspayed female dog, we can only host her while not in heat. We’re not ready to be grandparents! Booking with us means you confirm and agree to the above.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
