Dog Walking Northwest

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and love all animals, my dad had a dog business and we had all kinds of pets at home! Though I can't have a pet in my apartment, I enjoy caring for others' furry friends. I offer reliable dog walking, in-home check-ins, and pet sitting for small to medium dogs and cats, treating each pet like my own! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I work from home and set my own schedule. I’m able to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Since I’m not allowed to have pets in my apartment, I focus on caring for them in my clients’ homes. I follow their routines closely, provide plenty of attention and play time, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away.

“Overall really pleased with how Maira interacted with canelo she took her time to get to know him and was super patient with him as he got comfortable with her definitely booking again.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, reliability, and attention I bring to every pet I look after. With 10 years of experience in pet care, I understand that every animal has their own unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I take the time to get to know each pet so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic medications, providing plenty of exercise and playtime, or simply offering a quick drop by for companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also believe communication is key, so you'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages, giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a dependable, stress-free experience for both you and your pet, creating a relationship built on trust, consistency, and genuine care. I know that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make both of you feel secure. Pet care is my full-time focus so I structure my daily routine around the pets in my care. Because I'm available throughout the day, I can provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I maintain a calm environment that helps pets feels comfortable and secure while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. Since caring for pets is my primary commitment, I have the flexibility to accommodate different schedules, energy levels, and special care needs. I understand that inviting a stranger into your home and trusting them with a beloved pet is a big responsibility, and I take that seriously. Building that trust and creating a safe environment for all parties is my top priority. Before each stay or drop in, I make sure I understand your pet's routine, personality, and any specific needs they may have. I follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and exercise routines to medications, allergies, and any household preferences. I also make sure doors, gates, and other areas of the home are secure so your pet stays safe at all times. I also treat every client's homes with the same respect I would want for my own. I keep the space clean and organized, follow any instructions provided, and make sure your home is cared for while you're away. Again, I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same care and attention they would get from a trusted family member.

About: I’m a big animal lover! I’ve cared for both dogs and cats since I was 10, have dog/cat sat for families, friends and neighbors for over 15 years. I have a very flexible schedule and am always willing to work on your time and make sure your pets are safe, comfortable and taken care of! I'm currently working a remote part-time job and am available any time of the day to walk and care for your dogs. My schedule is very flexible, I'm available early mornings and afternoons as well for those needing to work late. From my own experience with my dog, I know how to crate train a dog. I ensure all possible exits leading outside of the home are closed and locked. Depending on the dogs diet, I'll provide the right amount of food and offer rewards for good behavior with treats (if allowed by the owner). Overall, I make sure the dog feels safe around me and try my best to build a trustworthy relationship.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through family, friends, and personal pets had 6 cats and a German Shepherd,I focus on keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and calm, and I pay attention to their body language to make sure they feel secure. I’m patient and reliable, and I treat every dog like my own. i have a flexible schedule and can accommodate bookings with advance notice. I’m currently starting pet care work and am open to adjusting my routine to provide consistent, reliable care for pets I prioritize safety, trust, and calm environments in every visit. In clients’ homes, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special care needs. I pay attention to each pet’s body language to make sure they feel comfortable and not stressed. I always keep a clean, secure environment, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and give pets calm, patient attention so they feel safe and cared for

About: I've been a proud dog mom for over 4 years to my rescue girl, who came to me with significant separation anxiety. Through patience, consistency, and a lot of love, I trained her to feel safe, confident, and calm — and that experience taught me more about dogs than any textbook ever could. As her primary caregiver, I handle everything myself: regular nail trims, baths, grooming, and monitoring her overall well-being. I've invested deeply in learning about canine and feline health, nutrition, and holistic wellness — while also greatly respecting the value of traditional western veterinary medicine. For example, I use traditional pharmaceutical flea prevention as a reliable foundation, while also incorporating holistic flea and tick repellent sprays to minimize exposure — the best of both worlds for your pet's safety and comfort. I have broad knowledge of dogs and cats in general — from behavioral cues and body language to dietary needs and preventive care. Above all, I love and care for animals as if they were my own children. Your pet will never just be a "client" to me. I work full-time from home as a Business Analyst, which means my schedule is genuinely flexible. I am also open to weekend bookings and will always do my best to work around your needs. When it comes to walks, I believe every dog deserves an outing that fits their personality — not just a quick loop around the block. My own dog loves to sniff and explore, so I always build in plenty of time for that. I also love taking dogs to bigger parks with a long leash for a good run and some fresh air. Whether your pup loves long-distance walks, sniff-focused strolls, occasional sprints, or calm park hangs — just let me know and I'll tailor every outing to what makes your dog happiest. And if your pup tends to eat things off the ground, just share that with me and I'll keep a close eye! Your trust means everything to me, and I take it seriously. I am naturally detail-oriented, a great communicator, and highly attentive to instructions — so if you have specific routines, preferences, or boundaries for your pet, I will follow them carefully and never assume. I am open-minded and culturally aware — having lived in California for 8 years as a Japanese woman, I genuinely appreciate diverse perspectives and adapt easily to different households, families, and pet personalities. I respect your space, your rules, and your way of doing things. I always welcome your feedback, questions, and preferences — no question is too small. You know your pet best, and I am here to be your trusted, reliable partner in caring for them. My home environment is calm and nurturing, shaped by years of caring for a rescue dog with anxiety — so I understand sensitive or nervous pets deeply. I prioritize patience over pressure, and comfort over convenience, every single time.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for the longest time as young as 16. I would love to treat your animals the same way I would treat mine and give them the best care possible.

I have taken care of my friends cats when they were out in trips. I also give the best care to my own cat and dogs as in giving them their favorite treats, attention, playtime, and potty time. I’m also a full time pediatric dental assistant.

About: I always loved going over to my friends' house if they had a dog because my parents wouldn't let me have one growing up. I was always willing to walk their dogs and 80% of my time at their house is spent with the dog HAHAH! I have pet sitted a couple times and I think dogs can feel how much I love them. They love resting on me. I am looking to incorporate exercise in my daily life, which this job would be perfect since I can get to meet dogs, walk the neighborhood, and make side money all at the same time! Given the leash and all the information to keep your fur baby happy and safe, I follow all instructions and will make sure they have a great time!

About: I have been caring for dogs for about 12 years now. I am familiar taking care of small (chihuahuas and norfolk terriers) to large (german shepherd) breeds. I trained my dogs to sit, stay, lay down, bark, touch their nose with my hand, and stand in between my legs. Hello! I am currently a student but have extra time to walk/pop in and check on dogs. I love animals and enjoy going on walks so this is a 2 in 1! My place does not allow dogs but at home I make sure that my dogs are taken care of. I check up on them, feed them food with supplements and take them on walks. For client’s it is important to me for you to provide me with detailed descriptions of what/how you want me to care for your pets!

“Stephanie is an AMAZING person, caring and gentle and understanding with my senior (15 yo) dog. I highly recommend her to anyone who has an elderly or special needs dog she is a perfect care taker.”

About: What sets me apart is the love and patience I have for pets. I like to care for them as if they were my own, keep a close eye on them, play with them, take them for walks, and make sure they feel calm and happy. I integrate dog care into my daily routine with walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I like to give them attention, affection, and maintain a routine so they feel calm and happy. “I can take care of pets in my home based on their needs.

About: Please feel free to dm me so I can give you my number so we can discuss booking if you're not wanting to book with rover due to the fees. Thanks! I have experience in veterinary clinic settings, including handling and assisting with patient care, which has strengthened my understanding of animal behavior and safety. I’m comfortable caring for both energetic young pets and senior animals who need a gentler, more patient approach. I also make sure routines like feeding, medications, and exercise are followed closely so pets stay comfortable and consistent while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my routine alongside a full-time work schedule. I’m available for visits after work (5PM) on weekdays, and I also have open availability for longer care stays on weekends. I make it a priority to plan my schedule in advance so I can consistently provide reliable care and attention for each pet I take on. I provide care based on each pet’s routine and needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after whether I’m in their home or out on a walk. For drop-ins and in-home visits, I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up as needed, giving medication if required, and spending time with the pet through play or companionship so they’re not just cared for but also comforted. I also keep the home tidy and make sure everything is secure before I leave. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match the dog’s energy level, whether that’s a relaxed stroll or a more active walk for exercise and stimulation. Overall, I prioritize consistency, safety, and communication, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own.

“Leighanna was great when she cared for our pup! She gave us thorough updates and plenty of pictures! This was especially great for us, since this was our first booking ever. She helped us feel calm and comfortable with having her care for our pup. She was very flexible with our schedules and super helpful. Our pup can be a bit of trouble to take on walks, but she was confident. She asked us our routine to keep similar to how we do it and was listening to all our little details. Our pup loved having her around. He got a great walk every time and plenty of love. Definitely deserves the 5 stars! We will definitely be looking forward to booking her again! ?”

About: Hi! I’m Alex, and I specialize in caring for senior dogs and smaller/medium pups. Over the past year, I’ve been fostering a dog while working closely with a professional trainer. This has given me hands-on experience with different behaviors, routines, and training needs. I am available during evenings and weekends. I currently work at a coffee shop and get off early in the day. I can attend to pets after work. I may be helpful for those with late-night jobs, such as bartenders or event hosts. Dog Walking – I will always go to you. I have treats (and water + a bowl!) to keep pups happy and hydrated. My walks are calm, full of sniffs, and focused on comfort. If you’re training your dog, I’ll keep things consistent. I can also provide more high-energy walks. I do NOT pull or tug dogs. Drop-In Visits – I’ll feed your pup, refresh their water, and give them love, playtime, or cuddles so they feel cared for while you’re away. I can also do a quick 15-minute potty break during this time. *If you have an elderly dog: I prefer to use the treats you normally give them to avoid upsetting their stomach. Please provide treats you’d like me to use.
