Talia took very good care of our new kittens over the weekend. I received several photos during each drop-in visit. The care that Talia took with the narrative for each visit was much appreciated! My husband and I will definitely book with Talia again.

Talia is such a wonderful person! This was the very first time we used the app and we couldn’t find a better sitter! Talia was super accommodating and attentive to make Kyra feel comfortable and safe. For a puppy like Kyra who’s super shy and still working on her social skills, this experience was the best intro to boarding! We can’t thank her enough!

Pets

A typical day

I live in a MIL studio with a private, fully-fenced yard. Dogs love the all-day yard access and cozy indoor nap areas. When I do not have daycare clients, I may schedule dog walks nearby. Available for pickups/dropoffs throughout Greater Seattle. I have regular clients between North and South Seattle and the Eastside! For health and safety reasons, I do not host indoor meet n' greets, but am happy to do a neighborhood walk or host some front yard playtime.
