About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve been the reliable friend people turn to when they’re away. Some of the routines look like: stopping in to feed pets, provide fresh water, clean up, and offer enrichment and play, and companionship so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also have experience house sitting and staying overnight for up to four nights, making sure pets feel safe, settled, and cared for in their own environment. I’ve been around animals since I was about 10 years old, including golden retrievers, labs, and cats, and I often ask to say hello when I see a furry friend out and about. I welcome different temperaments and adjust myself to meet them where they’re comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so fur babies feel secure, seen, and cared for while their best friend is away. I am available all days of the week, between 9:00 am-6:00 pm, can provide overnight care, please send me a message. (Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat) The goal is calm, consistency, and reading pet cues. 1. Follow their routine exactly Pets feel safest with predictability. Feed at the same times Use the same food amounts and bowls Keep walks/playtime similar to what they’re used to Even small changes can make sensitive pets anxious. 2. Do a careful first check-in When I arrive: I look for water level, food, accidents, or damage I observe their behavior (hiding, excited, nervous, clingy) I let them come to me rather than forcing interaction. 3. I arrive with a calm presence Many pets don’t need constant stimulation, they need steady companionship. I prefer to sit quietly near them, talk softly and let shy pets approach me on their terms 4. Exercise + enrichment (tailored to each pet) Dogs: walks, sniff time, fetch (if they enjoy it) Cats: wand toys, gentle play, window time I may suggest to keep sessions short if they get overstimulated 5. I like to help keep the home clean and safe by scooping litter boxes daily (sometimes twice per day), pick up wrappers or food items immediately, wipe paws if needed after walks, and keep doors locked and secure at all times 6. Respect their boundaries This is a big one for trust: I try not to force picking up or petting and watch for signs like tail flicking, hiding, freezing, or overstimulation. I let them decompress alone if needed. 7. I love the saying, “Leave things better than you found them” My fur friends owners say they appreciate: Clean bowls and litter areas, a tidy feeding/walking area, and the notes about how they did during the visit 8. I communicate clearly Send updates like: “Fed, walked, and doing well,” Photos (if allowed) and any changes in behavior or appetite

“Meng is great - easy to communicate with, punctual, and followed some complex instructions into our home.”

“Allexis is the best dog walker I've ever had! She is so communicative, kind, caring and flexible. My dog has struggled with some big life changes and transitions we've been going through and Allexis has been patient and loving with her. I've seen a huge difference in my dog's demeanor since Allexis and I've so grateful!”

About: I've been around cats and dogs most of my life and have a deep love and affection for them. As well, I recently started volunteering at Seattle Humane. I'm currently doing this part time, so I'm pretty flexible on availability on weekdays between Monday-Thursday. Though, for drop-ins, my clearest availability is between 8am-2pm. But again, I’m flexible. I can do overnights between 5pm-9am. I try to bring a calm, kind demeanor to the environment to put the cat(s) at ease; I will scoop the litter box, feed them, and if they show interest, play with them, and if not, I give them their space!

“Toki was great with our two goldens and walked them a considerable distance each day which was appreciated. The house was in great shape when we returned.”

“My Aussie Freya can be very selective about which humans she likes so hiring someone to help take care of her while i’m gone is. little stressful. I found Hunter on here and thought she would be a good fit and I was right! Freya was snuggling up and asking for belly rubs from her within 5 minutes of meeting Hunter! She provided me daily updates along with pictures of their walks and I really appreciated seeing that some of the days they got in some good miles since Freya needs that energy release. I will definitely be reaching out to Hunter in the future 💜”

About: I grew up around dogs and have been pet-sitting regularly since I graduated college. I currently work at Mud Bay, the local pet store, and my knowledge and love for cats and dogs has increased exponentially. I’m patient, gentle, and get along with every dog I’ve ever met :) I work 25-30 hours a week, I have a car, and I’m willing to help care for your pets whenever you need! Because I work the closing shift, I’m most available in the mornings and afternoon. I’ll always have treats on me from my job! I helped my family train our two dogs, I’m used to watching over sick or elderly pets as well, and I’m great about sticking to a routine.

“Laila was great! Very responsive and communicative. Arrived on time and dealt with my first Rover use anxieties like a pro. She even refilled Ruby’s water without me asking which was really appreciated since it was such a hot day. Would definitely use Laila again.”

“Our puppy girl had a great time with Dacya--she came home from the park well exercised and happy. Dacya is a great communicator and sent me lots of pics and videos and made me worry-free at work. Highly recommend Dacya and will definitely book her for future walks.”

About: I walk small dogs in Bellevue and genuinely enjoy every minute of it. You can expect a reliable, attentive walker who pays close attention to your dog's comfort and behavior — and always keeps you in the loop. I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of free time, which means I'm never rushing through a visit. I already have a daily routine with my own two cats — feeding, playtime, litter, and just being present with them. To me, that consistency is the foundation of a happy cat's life, and I bring that same approach to every pet I care for. I follow your routines to ensure your pet remains comfortable in its familiar surroundings. Before every visit I like to ask the important details — whether your cat goes outside, tends to sit on open windows, chews on plants, or has any habits I should know about. I ask all the necessary questions to cover every detail and maintain open communication throughout.

“Sylvie has been amazing with my 5 year old golden, Teddy! Prompt updates and Teddy is always worn out and happy! Can’t wait to have her back in the fall.”

“So lucky to have been referred to Jasmin, she takes such special care of my pup! Always goes above and beyond. You can tell she genuinely loves taking care of pets. It also felt good that she has so much experience with other puppies so she's kept Armin out of trouble and has actually helped improve his training”
