Dog Walking Nisqually Indian Community

“Lauren and Dalton were amazing They came over for a meet and greet before using them to walk our dog. You could tell they love dogs. They were easy to communicate with and got back to me very quickly when I messaged them I appreciated that they sent updates and pictures of our pup.”

“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”

“Liza is great! Most importantly, our Abby loves her and Liza likes Abby an awful lot, too. Liza is reliable, responsive to questions and keeps me informed. She has been so kind during a family member’s serious health problems. Because they were hospitalized unexpectedly, there was and the uncertainty of how long the overnights booking would last since it was dependent on how things went after surgery.”

“Sarah did a wonderful job walking my dog. She was always on time and my dog was so happy to see her.”

Denise C.

“Claire was wonderful. She is extremely kind and a breath of fresh air. Our dog, who has a bit of anxiety, opened up to her after the first day of her walking 2 walks.”

Susan M.

“So happy Julie was available to walk our pups. We look forward to booking with her again. She sent a photo of the pups and texted me before and after the walks. We Highly recommend Julie.”

About: Hi! My name is Manuela, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Back home in Colombia, I took care of my own two dogs as well as my relatives’ dogs, so I’ve been around dogs with different personalities and needs for years. I also worked as an Au Pair, where one of my daily responsibilities included caring for two family dogs. This gave me experience balancing pet care with a busy routine while making sure they received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Most of the dogs I’ve cared for have been large breeds, including Pit Bulls, Labrador Retrievers, and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, so I’m comfortable handling bigger, energetic dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I will always care for your pet with patience, kindness, and the same love I would give my own. Every dog has their own personality. I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and what makes them feel comfortable, so they can feel at ease while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I’m currently available seven days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet whenever you need. Whether it’s a morning walk, an afternoon visit, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to work around your schedule. I’m committed to providing dependable and consistent care, and I always make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I also speak both English and Spanish, so I’m happy to communicate in whichever language you’re most comfortable with. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own, and I make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Clair is great! She follows instructions, walked at Mo’s pace, and took care of him like I would. I booked longer because my dog(Mo) is a slow walker. She fed him, made sure his water bowls had fresh water and also gave him just supplements when needed, and treat. Will user her services in the future again!”

About: Juggling full-time studies and dedicated dog mom duties to German Shepard Stryker and rescue Doberman Luna. I’ve been raised with dogs and cats since childhood. As the go-to for family and friends in need of pet sitting, my reputation stands strong. I tend to spoil all the fur babies. Experienced with various breeds, adept at overcoming training and behavioral challenges. Your fur babies aren't just pets; they're family. Trust me to provide not just a service but a personalized, loving experience for your cherished family members. Your peace of mind, their wagging adventures. FYI the reason my rates are higher than expected is Rover takes out a big chunk. I have recently taken on an apprentice to take over my overflow of clients. If I’m unavailable for the dates you need, please message me and I can ask if she’s available. It’ll be at the same price rate, until she raises her rates. She really is great! Because of gas prices and time, travel outside of 10 mile/20 minute radius from home/Yelm will be charged travel cost per visit/day. As a dog mom myself, I understand the concern of leaving pets alone while at work. Offering dog walks, potty break, and house sitting in Thurston County and surrounding areas. My schedule is open all week Sunday-Saturday depending on availability. Reach out to schedule a meet and greet! I will not be offering stays at my house, but I can do house sitting. For house sitting please message me what dates/time you’re needing. I have made exceptions for last minute bookings when I’m available. At our meet and greet I’ll ask what their normal routines are and all their likes and dislikes. Please be aware that I may need to leave once a day during the weekdays my spouse works to let my doggo out, and possibly my regular drop ins depending when scheduled. To keep those away times at minimum please book far in advance so I can decline any extra clients. At my home our routine is; wake up, morning potty, enjoy a human-grade breakfast, another potty break, nap in mom's office. Playtime kicks in around noon, followed by post-lunch potty and another nap. We then join mom in her office, demanding attention, before yet another nap until the next break. Potty, Dinner, and Cuddles. Then one last potty before bed. We’re kinda couch potatoes in our home.

“Kelsey took excellent care of my pup while I was out of town, she is a great communicator and very flexible and reliable. I would absolutely recommend her! She also sends fantastic updates that seriously made me smile every day🥰”

About: I’ve pet-sat for multiple families, feeding, walking, playing, grooming. I've had my own dog and cat in the past and currently have 2 bunnies. I’m very comfortable around and absolutely love all pets! I am very active and love a good, long walk with a dog or playing at the park! I have a very open schedule and available every day for some extent of pet care. I am pretty available any and all times of the day as well. It is a regular part of my routine for my own pets. I will follow any rules/typical routines you have for your pets, anything you need to be done. Can stop by for multiple check ins during the day

“Helena made time to do a meet & greet with my dog prior to booking. She responded quickly & professionally to every message, and she kindly answered all of my questions/concerns. She gave me updates & pictures after every walk which was awesome! I knew my dog was in great hands, I'd 10/10 recommended her to anyone & I will definitely be booking her in the future!! Thank you Helena! 😊”

About: I have worked with both puppies and senior dogs, i have 2 poochon puppies that are 1 year old. I am currently going to school to be a vet technician and I volunteer at the animal shelter in the cat and dog rooms. I have experience handling all different types and sizes of dogs. Im a college student and currently working part-time in the late afternoons. So I have plenty of time to walk, play and give potty breaks! I have a fenced yard suitable for small to medium dogs. I have a large room that I can close off that has tile flooring and access to the backyard and also have pens if dogs need to be separated.

About: As an experienced dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by truly understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have a natural ability to read their body language and adapt to their moods, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medications, following specific dietary plans, or providing enriching playtime and walks, I tailor my approach to each dog’s routine. My calm and attentive demeanor helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease, and I maintain clear communication with pet owners for peace of mind. Having cared for my own senior Pomeranian, Zeus, until he was 14, I am particularly attuned to the special needs of older dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines for their comfort. I currently have an year and a half year old Yellow Labrador Retriever named cooper, so well experienced with puppies I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to be there consistently. I love getting outside for walks and making sure dogs stay mentally and physically happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, including senior dogs and puppies. I always keep a close eye during walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment.
