Pet care experience
WFH full-time with Rio the Samoyed!
Hi! My name is Minha, and I live in Ballard with my 10 year old Samoyed Rio. I work from home full time so I am able to provide potty breaks and/or walks throughout the day. I have experience with reactive and fearful dogs and can provide oral medications. If you’re looking for a dog sitter and your dog would like to make a new friend, we would love to meet you :)
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Minha was amazing with our sweet, shy Posie. Lots of photos for the long weekend checking in, which we love. Posie takes a while to warm up to new people and dogs and Minha and Rio were super patient and understanding. 10/10!

Zarya always has a blast hanging out with Minha & Rio. She always comes back happy and tired out from all the fun she has had!

Minha boarded our shiba for a week and he had a wonderful time with Rio. Her care was excellent and I would highly recommend her!

Minha and Rio are the best! Our pup is quite nervous and can be reactive to new strangers, but she loved being with Rio and Minha. Minha provided lots of photos and updates. She also was very patient with our pup and took the time prior to the day care to understand any special needs our dog had. Our pup can’t wait to go back :)

Minha and Rio are the best! Our Samoyed loves hanging out with hers and Minha sends the best pictures and updates. Our pup can’t wait to come back :)

Minha watched over our dog as if he were her own. She sent frequent updates and was extremely communicative. Our dog is a bit shy and anxious, and Minha made him feel very comfortable from the start. We recommend Minha for anyone looking for a dog sitter.

Schedule
Our schedule is flexible. We typically go for a walk in the morning before or after breakfast and after dinner, with a potty break around lunch and before bedtime. On weekends our schedule is even more flexible depending on the weather!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My dog Rio has separation anxiety, so he and your dog will typically not be left home alone without direct supervision during day care. If they are staying for boarding, they must be able to be home alone for at least 2 hours in case we may need to run errands. Rio would either be at a friends or separate daycare at that time. Since Rio is a senior, he enjoys the company of other dogs but does not usually engage in play. Please note that I do not leave toys out during stays to prevent resource guarding issues due to past experiences. If your dog has destructive tendencies without toys or requires constant stimulation during the day, we may not be the best fit.
