Dog Walking Norkirk

“There is no better dog sitter on the planet! This is the second time we asked Mike to take care of our Hero for 10 days and he has been super diligent, responsive, and very generous. We are really grateful!”

About: bring a blend of seasoned multi-pet expertise and pure, genuine love to every pet I care for. What truly sets me apart is my real-world experience as a parent of three cats. Managing a multi-pet home has taught me how to read animal behavior like a pro, handle various personalities, and maintain a calm, structured environment. I’m proud to be the trusted, first-choice pet sitter for all my friends with both cats and dogs—they know their babies are in the safest, most dedicated hands possible. Why pet parents choose me: Expert Cat Care: From spotless litter maintenance to interactive playtime and grooming, I understand feline psychology inside and out. Attentive Dog Routines: I love keeping dogs active and happy, providing up to 3 structured walks a day tailored to their energy levels. Bedside Nighttime Comfort: To minimize separation anxiety, I love letting pets sleep next to my bed so they feel secure throughout the night. Reliability: I am strictly disciplined with mealtimes, hydration, and safety protocols. I know how stressful it is to leave your beloved pet behind. My goal is to make your time away completely worry-free by treating your furry baby like royalty! My weekends are completely dedicated to giving your pets the highest quality care and companionship! Because I work during the week, my weekends are entirely free and clear, meaning my schedule revolves 100% around your fur baby. I don't have the rush of a weekday routine, so I can offer your pet my undivided attention, long walks, and endless love. How your pet fits into my weekend: Friday Evening – Sunday Night: I am fully available for weekend boarding, daycare, or house sitting. Flexible, Tailored Routines: Since I am entirely open on Saturdays and Sundays, I can stick perfectly to your pet’s exact weekday routine—whether that means feeding them at the crack of dawn or sticking to a strict medication schedule. Adventure & Exercise: Weekend time means your dogs get plenty of outdoor action, including up to 3 long, leisurely walks a day to burn off energy, and your cats get plenty of interactive playtime and grooming. Constant Companionship: I spend most of my weekends at home or doing pet-friendly activities, so your furry friend will rarely be left alone and will always have me around for nighttime bedside comfort. If you have a weekend getaway or an event planned, you can relax completely knowing your pet is having a fun, safe, and loving weekend staycation with me My home is clean, spacious, and totally pet-proofed (a natural perk of having 3 cats). When walking dogs, they are always securely on-leash. I follow your exact feeding and care instructions to the letter, and I'll send you plenty of photos just so you can see how happy they are. I treat your home and your pet with absolute respect and safety.

“so friendly, reliable and a true dog lover. High recommend.”

“Shana has been walking my dog weekly for the past 6 months and I can genuinely say she’s everything you would want in a dog walker/sitter. Shana always gives a complete review with pictures where I can tell she really cares about the health and safety of my dog. It makes my day when I receive an update from their walks. She’s very responsive and flexible and stays on top of keeping my dogs walks scheduled. I feel my fur baby is in the best hands with her. I couldn’t recommend Shana more.”

“Logan was awesome! She walked and fed our dogs (and a couple other animals) while we were away for a few days. She was very communicative, reliable thoughtful and trustworthy with our home and pets, with instructions, locking up, etc. We have two dogs that pull a lot when walking so not a job for just anyone. Our dogs were well taken care of while we were away and well adjusted to all back to normal when we came back. I would recommend and use again.”

“I was so grateful for Ao and Yun’s kind and thoughtful care of Harley while we were on vacation. Our family staying with her was unable to walk her so Ao and Yun were life savers for our energetic baby. They sent pictures and updates everyday they were there - thank you so much you two!”

Shaela W.

“Shawn was excellent and very attentive to Louie's needs. She took extra care and time to ensure he was comfortable and having fun. She was also very communicative, so we were always at ease since we were never left guessing about any details.”

Alden F.

“Alex is a regular walker for my dog chilli and Abu. Both very different dogs but he tends to all their needs and is a great walker for me. He's awesome!”

Charissa W.

“My dog loved her and we will definitely use Grace again.”

About: I’ve owned three dogs across nearly 10 years, including a Border Collie and a Poodle staying in China now. I have over five dog walking experiences back in China, sincerely love all pups and provide regular potty breaks plus daily photo updates for every boarding dog. I stay home most days in Kirkland with flexible free time. I’m fully available all weekends for boarding, and free most weekday afternoons, able to take dogs out for potty breaks every 2–4 hours regularly. I own a secure fenced backyard for dogs’ outdoor play. My two gentle spayed female dogs are staying in China now, I keep home pet-safe and send daily photo updates to owners for every boarding pup.

About: I've had pets as long as I can remember. I have a love for animals and love taking care of them. I have experience with many different kinds of dogs and cats and have no issues in being able to catr if either or both. I've had experience with diabetic cats and older pets too. I'm currently in college so I can be busy during the weekday mornings but other then that I take care of my 2 cats at home every day, and have plenty of time to assist with others pets. I only have a cat at home who doesn't go outside, but I have dealt with large dogs on walks and am a fairly strong man, so I'll have no issues handling a couple medium sized dogs either. I'm no stranger to rough play but also love a warm gentle cuddle while reading a book or scrolling. (I may request access to your wifi so I can do homework while staying with your pets, it is not necessary to give me access if you do not feel comfortable with it, I will not take offense to you saying no, and will not treat you or your pets differently based on your answer. I swear to always give the utmost of my care and love to your pets, and treat them as if they were my own.)

“Last week was the first time I used Edie for my new puppy Chester. He is quite the handful and she has done wonders with him. She’s been very flexible and genuinely enjoy to work with. Hopefully Chester will get used to her as I will be using her weekly for his walks.”

About: Hello there! My name is Nicole, and like many of you, I LOVE animals. Currently I live in downtown Kirkland and am open to new fluffy (or scaley) friends. I have watched pets inside my own and done visits. I am only open to boarding smaller, cat friendly dogs. :) I promise you that I will love and treat your pet with kindness and love. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your furry friends, and will send many photos and updates while you are away. I am currently looking to fill my free time with taking care of furry little friends. I live in Kirkland and do daily walks, and if your dog wants to come along, they are more than welcome! I live in a Condo in Kirkland, WA. I am happy to take dogs to dog parks (with permission) or to just a stroll around the neighborhood. I will send updates and photos whenever I see your pet!

“Laura walked our 1 yo golden retriever Cheddar while we were out of town and she was staying with a family member who wasn’t able to watch her. Everything went very smoothly and Cheddar seemed very happy with her!”

“I’m so grateful for Colin! I needed a last-minute walker after coming down with a stomach bug, and he was an absolute lifesaver. He was flexible, responsive, and super friendly, keeping me updated throughout the walk. This was my first time using Rover, and Colin even helped walk me through the final steps of setting up my account—so kind and patient! Highly recommend him.”

Rachel B.

“Leelay is great. She was kind, genuinely cared for our dog. She was great at paying attention to details. She was also committed and responsible, even during the days with the harsh snow and freezing rain.”

About: I have years of experience caring for small dogs of all ages, from active puppies to senior dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra care for older dogs with special needs. My friendly, neutered poodle mix loves having canine companions and gets along well with other small dogs. We enjoy daily walks, playtime, and trips to local parks. I provide a safe, loving, and active environment for weekend stays and short visits. Your pup will be treated like family! 🐕💕 I work in the office 4 days per week. Dogs receive two daily walks, along with potty breaks approximately every 4 hours. My home is a dog-friendly apartment community with many resident dogs, so guests should be comfortable riding an elevator and being around other dogs in shared spaces. My friendly poodle mix enjoys companionship, and we make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and a comfortable place to relax. We are best suited for social, adaptable small dogs who enjoy being around people and other pups.

“Gaby was fantastic! Really loved our dogs, she’s a natural. We’ll be using her again.”

Cannon K.

“Madison has been really super! She always arrives on time, communicates proactively, and is extremely gentle and kind to my little Boston Terrier when taking her for midday walks over the last few weeks when I needed a bit of extra assistance. Thank you Madison!”

About: During college I did Rover and Nextdoor all four years to walk and care for mainly dogs but also cats. I’ve got tons of experience taking care of all kinds of animals. I’m new here and looking to meet some new people/pets so I decided to get back on Rover. I work 30 hours a week, four days so am flexible with timing. I have a 7-month old puppy at home that I am also raising, I give her daily walks. I love walking so can fit walks into my schedule whenever I am free. I have been raising a puppy with my Mom here at home. Our place is too small to accommodate more pets but I am happy to come to your place. I love hanging out with animals, playing with them and taking them for walks. I’m obsessed with all dogs!
