Pet care experience

Experienced Small Dog Specialist

I fell in love with small dogs starting with my first rescued Chihuaha, Milo, 16 years ago. He was already about 8+ years old but we went to training classes together and that experience was so positive and rewarding. Who says you can't teach an older dog new tricks?! He did great and I never looked back. I took him everywhere with me, including to my acupuncture office. He lived to be (an estimated) 17+ years old and I loved every minute of walking, hiking, and cuddling with him. Milo taught me so much about caring for small dogs and senior dogs. My next rescue, a Chihuahua-Maltese named Lola, was about a year old and also a star at training with me. So much energy and so much fun! She had a congenital issue with her kidneys that took her from us too soon, but we shared a lot of love and fun. I also have a lot of experience cuddling and caring for my sisters' and friends' feline fur babies. My partner and I have recently retired and have decided not to get another animal companion due to the amount of traveling we're doing. So while we're in Seattle, your dog(s) and/or cat(s) would get the full benefit of my love, care and attention!

Robin was amazing with our puppy Lili when she was younger! She took so many cute photos and was just an amazing person for my puppy to hangout with. She was also very communicative!

Robin was absolutely wonderful with my older small dog. He’s not getting around as well anymore and needs multiple medications, but her care and concern for him was notable. She also sent me plenty of photos and updates!

Robin was an amazing dog sitter! I have a hard time leaving my 13 year old dog, but Robin made me so comfortable and made sure to give me updates and pictures throughout the day. I would definitely rebook again!

Schedule

I am a mostly-retired acupuncturist (25 years experience) who is getting used to a different life rythym with my newly-retired partner. We love animals and being active so we have time to focus on taking your 4-legged fur baby for walks or spending time playing with and petting new feline friends.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Robin can host up to 1 pet per night
Please let me know if your dog or cat has any quirks or special needs I need to accommodate for. I love all dogs, but am a small dog (and any size cat) specialist who can give your little one all the pampering and TLC they deserve.
