Dog Walking Opportunity

“Vanessa took excellent care of my dogs for me and they loved going on a walk with her! They really enjoyed her and were completely comfortable with hanging out with her. Definitely will book again in the future!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats, including my own, for as long as I can remember. I have trained my pets as well as other's in basic obedience. I like to study dog psychology and I have a bachelor's degree in psychology. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from tiny-huge and fearful-calm temperaments. My favorite breeds to care for are large breeds, most specifically breeds like pitties, mastiffs, and dobermans, but I love all dog breeds too and love how every dog has their own unique personality. I've also cared for cats doing volunteer work and have 2 of my own. I'm currently available anytime of the week all year besides the few times per year that I travel. I am working to potentially have a career with dogs. For care in the client's home, I will do whatever is instructed to me to be done for the pet. I am good at reading dog body language and understanding their needs. I've cared for fearful/avoidant dogs and hyper/clingy dogs alike. I am not able to provide care in my own home since I live with family and own 2 rescue cats.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was 10 and I absolutely love walking dogs with my son he loves them so much! I’m a stay at home mom with my almost 2 year old so I’m free anytime for what you need. Even if it’s just to play with your fur babies! Your fur babies safety is a big priority for me so I will fallow all your rules and requirements to a T. I’m a very organized person so if you have a list of needs I’ll make sure to do it all.

“Nicole was great! She fit us in for a last minute booking and even made time for a quick meet-and-greet beforehand. I would highly recommend her!”

“Andrea was truly the best person we could have hoped for to care for Cooper and Luca while we were on vacation. We had originally planned for daily visits, feedings, walks, and playtime, but after the first night, she could tell they were having a hard time settling in and kindly offered to stay with them for the rest of the week. That meant so much to us. Andrea took the time to understand what each of them needed and helped calm their nerves with patience, attention, and so much love. She kept them fed, walked, entertained, and cared for, and made sure they had the comfort and company they needed while we were away. Knowing they were in such thoughtful hands gave us real peace of mind on our trip. She was also incredibly considerate of our home. She washed the bedding she used, did the dishes, and left everything so clean and tidy. We’re grateful for all the care she gave both our dogs and our home. We would happily recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter!”

About: Hello, I go by Rae :) I grew up with dogs, cats, horses & chickens! I am a long time pet-sitter for family, friends, & strangers alike. Few things about me: I enjoy hiking with my dogs, teaching yoga, making music, cooking delicious food, and reading. I would love to care for your fur babies and will do so as if they were my own. My own dog, Milo, gets along well with others and would love to be friends with fur babes. Looking forward to planning a visit with you! I currently work afternoons into the evenings! Typically, I arrange scheduling as needed per each unique booking. My routine is somewhat flexible! I look forward to figuring out what works best for us both! I cannot currently offer boarding but love to drop in to love on/exercise/play with your animals as needed! All is customizable of course! Looking forward to it!

“Anya did a great job of caring for Baron while I was out of town. My usual caregiver was not available, but Anya put me at ease on our first meeting. It was great getting notified with a picture and confirmation each time she checked in to walk my boy. I felt totally comfortable giving her access to my home and will call on her again as needed! G.H.”

About: Hi! Over the years I have proudly fostered independently and through Haus of Dogs, Operation Foster, Seattle Area Feline Rescue and Paws and Claws. I am currently a volunteer at SCRAPS. I can provide excellent references and I have experience with senior pets and pets on meds and supplements. I will be sure to make your animal feel loved and cared for. I know it's hard for them and hard for you to be away from them, so never hesitate to text or facetime. I will make sure your pets don't feel alone or abandoned, and that they get exercise, affection, and plenty of food, water, treats, pets, play time, and outdoor time. I understand how important it is to the well being of anyone to get those needs met. Can't wait to meet you! I usually work from home and never work long days away from home. I'm flexible and live in a very pet friendly building with support. I usually work from home and never work long days away from home.

About: I’ve taken care of animals, specifically dogs and cats since I was younger. I own a cat but have really loved and trained my own dogs in the past. Can spoil and can also train if wanted. I do work at a retirement home as a home care aide so my hours can somewhat vary but if I can make it work I will 100%. If my partner could be a “testimonial” he’d say I geek out and have to pet every dog (if the owner looks tolerant of that of course haha) that we pass by. Let me know exactly how you want your lul baby taken care of or any quirks I should be aware of ;) and I will make sure to follow whatever guidelines/instructions are set :). I’m currently working part time and I love animals. I have a spicy sweetheart black cat who is spoiled but still has his rules, not that he likes to listen to em ;) haha. I need notice for overnight sitting and such just so I can arrange my other schedule around it :). When overnight sitting I can do extra services like dog walking, play time, potty breaks, cuddles, and treats if allowed ;). I’m good w crate training as well for the dogs that need their safe space and will also let them cuddle with me if it’s an overnight and they’re the clingy type :). Genuinely just love dogs and cats, especially dogs though, too pure for this world <3

About: I’ve had 3 dogs and 2 cats. Currently 1cat in my home. She is shy. I adopted her when she was 6 and now 8. I had Two puppies which I trained and adopted an older dog. I love all animals and miss having a dog in my home. I am retired and home full time. I would prefer a smaller dog or puppy mainly for my Girl can get use to having another fur baby in the house. My yard is fenced and secure. I make sure the dogs are leased when we go for walks. And of course lots of love. I know your babies miss you when you’re gone but they will be entertained and happy with me

About: I’ve been taking care of peoples animals since I was 15. I have always love hanging out with animals so it was the perfect fit I just moved back to Spokane and don’t have too much going on at the moment. I have a lot of free time and am excited to work with animals. I like to make sure they get plenty of time playing whether that’s a walk or just playing fetch or running around with them for a bit.

About: I have a deep love and appreciation for my fuzzy little friends and all that they have taught me. I have learned everything I can to support my own pets and maybe even yours! I know how to perform CPR on both cats and dogs. I am comfortable following care plans for senior pets. Trained to provide subcutaneous fluids to kitties. I am currently available Monday - Thursday, barring the occasional appointments. I work long hours over the weekends so I am unfortunately not available at all Friday - Sunday I am a big believer in routine, as I know my fur babies definitely have and prefer theirs. I am happy to stick as close to their normal routine as possible.

About: Animals and animal care has always been my passion, I’m currently working towards getting my bachelors degree in animal science and zoology! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals and I’ve done a lot of rescue and rehoming! I love animals, from cats to fish, lizards and birds. I’m crazy about all of them. I’ve cared for babies and elderly of a lot of different species and I pride myself in always doing my best in taking care of all their needs. Ive got quite a few of my own babies at the moment but they’re all very friendly and adjust easily to new animals. If you are struggling financially or need a little extra help please don’t let my rates discourage from booking with me! We can discuss a plan and figure out what will work best for you! I don’t currently have a day job except rover because I’m working towards getting my bachelors degree in animal science/zoology, so I’m home 24/7 to care for my own pets and school, I have two crate trained dogs, four cats, two frogs, two birds, fish, and a hamster, so I’m basically always cleaning and playing or training one or the other! While I live in an apartment, we have multiple fenced dog parks and ample walking area away from the roads for walkies with the dogs, my apartment is pretty spacious especially in the living room and animals are allowed around the whole apartment. If I were to watch your babies at your residence I would stick strictly to the rules you set for me and never overstep your boundaries or rules.

About: I am Suzy I grew up on a farm in a small town. I am retired from being a private hospice caregiver. I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, pigs, goats and horses. I have had my own dogs and cats and started helping more with pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family. I have an alternative medicine degree and it has helped me not only in my personal life but also with my animals lives. I gravitate to animals that have higher anxiety and separation issues. I am at a point in my life that this brings me joy and peace to be able to make sure your pet is taken care of when you leave them. I also have given medicines to animals. I love to do decopage art in my spare time and cook. I am loving being retired and my pet sitting business has grown. It brings me joy every time I get to be with animals that revolves around cuddles and hanging out. I started doing this because I have 3 grand pups and 1 grand cat along with 1 human grand daughter and it has brought me peace and happiness. I was lost on what I wanted to do with this part of my life. I immensely enjoy pet sitting and meeting new pet owners and pets. Pet Sitting has helped me through some dark times of my recovery with a double masectomy. I have healed beautifully with the love of each animal I have cared for. I am stronger then I was and look forward to time with your pet. I am not in a position to have pets at my home. However in your home I am there to help your animal not feel alone by giving them the attention they need or what you have requested. I also appreciate when pet parents leave me a detailed description of what they would like or what their pet needs.

About: *** I will be available only for Drop-in Visits through the Winter in Spokane and CDA starting November 1st. Hope to talk to you soon!**** I have been a housesitter and petsitter for years. I really enjoy getting to have new pet friends! I have taken care of all sorts of animals--dogs, cats, birds, lizards, hamsters, bunnies, horses, pigs, goats, chickens and even cows! I feel comfortable with pets who have medical issues, as well. I also have done a fair amount of pet massages for dogs and cats (not lizards, though!!) I have an online business, so I usually housesit and work part-time online. This makes it very easy for me to be in a home with pets who need more attention, or dogs that need walked often. I have done all levels of pet care-from simple one hour drop-in visits for cats to feeding and cleaning up for horses and cows (extra fee for that!!) So, I am very versatile with my clients! I also find that I bond easily with pets, and can often connect to shy or nervous cats and dogs by being present, calm and talking to them. I also know to leave someone alone when they just don't want to connect. I usually do lots of walks and playing together as well as simply sitting and petting and offering yummy treats!

About: I’ve had my dog Toby at home since I was 9. He is now a 14 yr old Maltese (yes that is very old for a Maltese) so I would like to say I take great care of him. Now that I’m in college away from him, I miss my dog interactions! At home during summers I also take care of my neighbors dogs and dog walk! I am currently a nursing student at Gonzaga so I mainly have classes in the morning until noon and then am free the rest of my day if I’m not studying for exams or hanging out with friends! I specialize in highly energetic dogs and the chill sleepy ones. I’m happy to follow your dogs healthcare plans (if they need any medications). I can follow their everyday routine, I love going on walks so I’m happy to do so before meals. I will surely give your dog plenty of attention and I also have a car so I’m always available to take them to their favorite park!

“We are starting on week 2 with Kelsey and she is great! Responsive, communicative, flexible. Wishing she didn’t have to go back to her full time job after summer lol”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors and families pets since I was young and love animals of all kinds! I’m never opposed to a job, whether it be a play date, walk or pet sitting! I can even shuttle your pup to and from vet or grooming appointments if need be! I currently work full time, but I work from home Fridays and am available all day Saturdays and Sundays! I have my own pup who loves playing with others, and is always happy to make a new friend! I’m very attentive to any needs your pet may have and will follow any instructions to a T! If you have any concerns I’m more than happy to reassure :)

About: Not only have my family & I have had animals since I can even remember that I would help look after! I’ve been pet sitting for the last 10 years for friends, neighbors, and even coworkers! I currently am serving at Shaw Air Force Base! I have time in the early mornings and mostly all evening. My schedule is pretty flexible! Safety for your pet/s is my number one priority! Whether that’s with going on walks or caring for them inside your home. Your furry friend is safe with me!

About: Taking care of your pups and cats is AS important as taking care of my own self. I’ve worked at a doggy day care, so I know all the ins and outs of what to do and what not to do with canines. I am calm, patient, kind, caring, and gentle. Our furry friends are our babies, they deserve every bit of love and light possible. I work an early full time M-F job, so I am unable to do morning drop-ins. I do offer afternoon and evening drop-ins, as well as housesitting (if I am not away from housesitting) as long as your pup is okay being alone for 8-9 hours! Attention and details are some of the most important traits to have while caring for pets. I will carry a loop(s) with me when necessary, so I can easily get ahold of your pup if they become too energetic under certain circumstances. If you need me to take care of something specific that your pup does, I can handle it.
