Pet care experience
Pet Sitter in Leschi
New to Rover but certainly not new to pet sitting. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid, and I’m still the go-to sitter for friends and family. I plan to care and love for your pets, the way I’d expect someone to do so for my own. From elderly dogs needing special diets to dogs with conditions such as diabetes, I have many years and types of experience and I'm happy to adapt to the unique needs of your pets. While you're away on vacation or at work, your pets will be in the safe and friendly hands of a pet and animal lover.

Kyle had great communication and took great care of my cat!
Took such great care of my cat and sent lots of wonderful pictures!
Excellent cat sitter for my cat Skipper! Trust and would hire again!
Kyle was such a great sitter! we have really low maintenance kitty cats, but he plugged right in to their program and sent us the sweetest updates so we never ever had a concern, and the kitties were so happy when we got home. Thank you so much, Kyle!
I couldn’t be happier with Kyle as a pet sitter for my dog, Holly! From the moment Kyle arrived, it was clear he genuinely cares about animals. Holly, who can be a bit shy with new people, warmed up to him quickly thanks to his calm and patient demeanor. Kyle kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. He followed all of Holly’s routines perfectly, from walks to feeding, and even took extra time to play and give her plenty of love. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Holly and I are both grateful for his wonderful care!

Schedule
Available most mornings and evenings. Weekends and work-from-home days (usually M, Tu, Fri) I can be a bit more flexible. I work a 9-5 so generally I need to work around that schedule.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will care for your pet and home with the up most respect. My goal is to make sure your pet is safely taken care of and left happy, satisfied, and loved. I’d love to chat before my visit about anything I should take into consideration before entering your home. Especially if your dog or cat is known to make a run for it when doors to the outside are open or if they can be aggressive with new people. Whatever I can do to make sure your pet is safe, I will do it! It'd also be helpful to know where you keep your cleaning materials in case your pet leaves a mess that I can clean up. I know it can be less than ideal to return home to find cat litter, spilt water and feces around your home. Trust me... I've been there.
Pets
A typical day
Dogs: I love walking dogs. I walk every day on my own, or with my partner, and I’d love to have a furry friend join. Routes and length will vary depending on the time slot booked, but generally I like walking up and down 30th and 31st Ave, through Sam Smith, Colman, Bradner and Frink Park, as well as along Lake Washington. Cats: Any type of chase game is just as fun for me as it is for your cat. Strings, lasers, feathers — whatever you have, I’ll make a game out of it. I love brushing cats too and spend time each day brushing my own cat. If you have any electronic toys that keep your cat busy while you're away, I'd be happy to make sure they're charged and turned on during my visit.

- Please let me know of dietary restrictions and health conditions so I can respect those accordingly. I’d also love to consider behavioral issues before agreeing to the booking including but not limited to biting (gentle nipping is fine, I know that habit is hard to break), aggression, barking, door dashing, etc. The location of cleaning materials in your house, in case your pet makes a mess that I clean up. In that vein, it's helpful to know where your trash is located (both indoor and outdoor) - especially for cats with litter boxes and dogs that often relieve themselves indoors. Clear instructions on how to enter your home, including any watch outs regarding your pet for entering or exiting. If your door requires code or pass key, please test it before you leave to ensure it works. For physical keys, we can arrange a meet up for me to obtain the key or you can let me know where to locate it on your property. Household rules for your pet. Are they not allowed in certain areas or rooms? Are they allowed on furniture or counters? Do they need to be leashed in your yard? Etc. Commands. Are there certain phrases or words I should use to help with their training/behavior? Do they need to sit before receiving a treat? What phrase do I use if they misbehave on a walk? Etc. Plan for emergencies. Who is your vet? Who do I contact in an emergency?
