“Adam did a great job with Mondo. He was incredibly responsive, often times responding within a few minutes. Drop off was very easy as there was plenty of parking around. He sent us photo updates on their near 3.5 mile walk. Would definitely recommend him and plan to use him again to watch Mondo.”


“Thank you Nick and Alison for taking such great care of Toby. He really enjoyed his day with you, and we really appreciated all of the updates throughout the day. We will definitely book with you again in the future ?”

“Our meet and greet with Kate was wonderful! After meeting her I didn’t even worry about Ole and knew he was in good hands with the whole family. Ole came home happy and tired💕”

About: Hi there! I’m a proud father of two and two lovable rescue dogs – both German Shepherd mixes, one of whom has taught me a lot about patience, training, and handling reactivity challenges. Whether your pup is a playful bundle of energy or a bit more cautious, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. With years of experience caring for dogs (and other animals from snakes to bees and everything in beween) of all shapes, sizes, and quirks, I bring both reliability and a love for animals to every walk, play session, or cozy stay. Your furry friend will get plenty of attention, exercise, and love – just like I’d want for my own dogs! Let’s make tails wag together! 🐶🐕 As a proud dog dad of two rescue pups, pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. From morning walks and feeding routines to playtime and quiet moments, caring for animals is something I prioritize and truly enjoy. My experience includes handling a reactive dog, which has taught me patience, structure, and the importance of consistency. Whether it’s fitting in evening check-ins, daily walks, or weekend adventures, I’m flexible and happy to tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I treat every pet as I do my own – with attention, care, and plenty of love.” Whether in my home or yours or walking your pup in the neighborhood or park, I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for your pets. At my home, I follow a structured routine with plenty of walks, playtime, and downtime to ensure pets feel secure and comfortable. Since I have two German Shepherd rescues (including one with reactivity challenges - don't worry, she's great with other dogs. It's people she struggles with), I’m experienced in managing different personalities, energy levels, and sensitivities. Safety, supervision, and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and environment. I’ll follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean up after them, and make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and attention. Whether that means a peaceful walk, playtime in the yard, or cozy companionship indoors, I adapt to your pet’s needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you know your furry friend is in great hands!

About: My partner and I have both have had multiple dogs our whole lives. We are both very excited to welcome new pets into our home! I just moved to Seattle to live with my partner. I currently am home all day with plenty of free time! I would love to have a little companion to hang out with. We do not currently have any other animals in our home and understand that certain pets do not play well with others. We both have experience with many different breeds in our lifetimes and understand the responsibility of caring for another life.

About: Hey there! My name is Ryan. Originally from New England, I'm proud to call Seattle my home for the past 7 years. I live here with my partner and 2 dogs, Chonky and Chilli. Chonky, originally rescued in Atlanta, has been with me for 11 years. I'm unsure of his age since he was street rat before me but I call him 12-13 to anyone who asks. We've lived in 3 different states and traveled cross country together - he's quite literally my road dog. He unlocks a new allergy with every state we visit and is usually the reason we're visiting the vet. Chilli, who was rescued 3 years ago by my partner and I, just turned 10 in April. We like to say she found us since we initially applied for a different dog, different breed and somehow ended up with a Frenchie with separation anxiety. We wouldn't have it any other way, however, as Chilli is the undisputed Queen around here. I am currently unemployed, having quit my job at the end of May to travel back East to visit with sick and elderly loved ones for an extended amount of time. Now that I've returned to Seattle, I'm ready to begin accepting clients! With no other commitments, I will be able to devote all my time to caring for your pet. Prior to caring for pets all on my own, I grew up with both dogs and cats and have extensive experience caring for both. Additionally, I was allergic to dogs in my early youth and have also cared for: rodents, birds, fish, lizards, crustaceans, and amphibians. The mental and physical health issues of my own two current pets equipped with experience administering medication, pre/post operation care, and a minor amount of behavioral correction training. I will be keeping my rates low and competitive initially to establish a client base. My professional background is in team management and customer satisfaction. Being a pet owner, I understand and empathize with the struggle of finding someone to watch your pets. Even here on Rover, I've had good experiences and poor experiences depending on the sitter. What sets me apart from most is experience caring for dogs! I find most sitters on this platform are looking to make a few extra bucks while they work from home - I would like to engage with your pet more than a computer screen. We'll play, walk, run errands together (size permitting). My goal is to keep your dog happy and you free of stress.

About: Hello! With over six years of experience on Rover, I’m dedicated to providing personalized, loving care for pets of all breeds and personalities. From playful pups to independent cats, I ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cherished. As a Certified Good Pup Trainer and trained in Pet CPR & First Aid, I prioritize safety while creating a fun, nurturing environment. Your furry companions will enjoy tailored attention, engaging activities, and endless affection. Trust me to treat your pets like family—making their time with me as special as they are! I’m new to the Seattle area, and work from my home in Ballard. I’m a certified GoodPup Trainer (GCT), and I'm available for training sessions, drop-ins, and walks. I treat staying in your home in a respectful and conscientious manner. I know the amount of trust that goes into allowing someone else to enter your space and care for your pets, and I strive to earn it by staying tidy and cleaning up after myself.

About: ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS FOR 2025 SUMMER ADVENTURES - PARK HANGS, LAKE SWIMS, AND MORE ☀️ I’ve spent my entire life around dogs. Growing up, I quickly became one of the primary caregivers for my own pups and was known as the resident dog-sitter around the neighborhood. I was the first person called when a neighbor needed someone to watch their dog. I care deeply for animals and have taken the time to research and understand basic dog behavior and communication. Being around animal makes me genuinely so happy and excited. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, including puppies and elderly dogs. *I have a 6 month old Bernese Mountain/Golden Retriever mix. He LOVES other dogs. He will be present at bookings unless otherwise stated, so you can rest assured you will come home to a happy pup that has been able to play all week long! I’m currently in between jobs due to an unexpected lay-off, so your pup will receive 100% of my attention during the week! I love having more time to be able to dedicate to your pet and making sure they have the best time ever with me. I will always prioritize safety and ensuring your pup feels respected, safe, and well-cared for. I believe in positive reinforcement to create healthy, mutually respectful relationships between humans and dogs. I will always respect your training methods to the best of my ability.
