“Jessica and Jason were amazing! We had a last minute booking and they were flexible with pick up/ drop off times. Zena had a great time meeting new friends and they sent lots of photos!”

“Kayla was absolutely amazing. This was my first time using this service and leaving my fur babies with someone other than family. She made the time to meet my pets before I left which was a relief. All of the instructions were followed perfectly and she gave great detailed updates. Would absolutely recommend Kayla, especially since she has extensive experience as a trainer and was able to care for my shy senior dog.”

About: I grew up mostly with cats and got my first dog in my early 20's. I can't imagine now, how I lived so long without a pup in my life. I've cared for several dogs in the years since. And they've been fully integrated in daily life, from morning walks or runs around Green Lake, trips to the grocery and other errands, to lounging on the sofa after a days work. The dogs have free range in most of the house and nap or play while I work between potty breaks. My dogs like to get out and stretch every couple hours, so I structure my days around those active breaks outside. My dogs are fully integrated companions and we do pretty much everything together. They like to get out for a walk every couple hours or so. So I structure my day around those active breaks. Typically, we'll do 1 big walk or run a day depending on how they're feeling. We also make weekly trips to Marymoor or out the mountains or coast for unstructured play time. Each dog has their own preferences. I am adaptive to the needs of the animal. We have an elderly dog and a young dog in our household. They have similar but different nutrition and activity needs that we adapt based on feedback from the animal. There are several beds around the house they can use during the day. Open access to fresh water. Regular feeding schedules. And toys to play with. We're out of the house regularly for walks but they also will ask for attention when extra is needed.

“Nick and Alison took great care of our little Icarus! They were great with communication. They met with us before hand to make sure our pups would get along, and reviewed with us Icarus's care needs. During the visit they have us plenty of updates with pictures! We will definitely be asking them to watch our pup in the future!”

“Ling provided such great care of my dog, it was heartwarming to see my Oumka running happily to come back to Ling's place. Ling is very responsive and sends regular updates throughout the day. It is clear that my dog had the best time with Ling, I highly recommend her services!”

“Sparrow is literally our dogs best friend! Her and Binbin are absolutely lovely! I don’t even wonder if he’s okay because I know she’s taking great care of him. We could not have asked for a better sitter :)”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. Pet care comes natural to me and I have loads of personal experience with regular vet visits, giving medication, and keeping pets safe, happy and well cared for. I have two friendly and sweet cats that are friendly to dogs but generally avoid them. They spend most of their time on my balcony watching birds or up high hanging out on one of their cat trees. I love cats and dogs equally I never felt like a one or the other person. I make sure to play with each of them daily and give them individual attention so they know they’re loved and cared for. I raised a Mini Goldendoodle named Matcha with my roommate from a puppy to an adult lovingly. We attended puppy classes at paws 4 training, like most people in the Freemont / Wallingford area. Sadly she moved out recently. I’m looking to share my experience and care with some new doggos. I am in the habit of daily park trips with my dog, to woodland park or for long walks around greenlake. I like to do potty walks every 3-4 hours. I’m happy to do so more often whenever needed. I prefer to sit one dog at a time or two if they are from the same owner so we can make the most of our time together. As a lifetime cat owner I am happy to trim nails if requested, comb daily, spoil, and play with them lots. Vet visits if requested. I’m very close to Northwest vets in on stone way and the greenlake animal hospital. I’ve got all the necessary cat and dog supplies, gates if needed, a large soft crate if needed, a smaller metal crate, leashes, fancy jackets, a couple fun things for holiday photos. :) I’m happy to do a meet and greet to see if we are a good fit at my apartment or at the park. I’m happy to do house sitting as well, sometimes I’ll get bored and clean I always leave a place as clean but more likely cleaner than I found. Right now, I have a very flexible schedule. I generally work from home and Rover is a full time gig for me. I always try to only watch one dog at a time however if there is a day or two overlap I will check with both owners before accepting. I have an unfenced yard /shared dog area and lovely kind neighbors who also have pets. I take my dogs to woodland park to the grass to play fetch, the dog park or we go on long walks around the neighborhood. There’s a nice trail on the next block for doggies who need privacy when pooping. We like to take leisurely sniff walks or potty walks around Wallingford and Fremont (wallymont). I can’t help but take pictures regularly so I will keep you up to date. I have a spacious apartment for rainy days we can play ball down the long hallways or tug in the wide living room. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds. And everything is cleaned regularly including doggie beds and blankets. If you want to provide that for them for their comfort that is always welcome.

“Cathleen is a kind and compassionate animal lover! She’s great with my Buggs! They’re an adorable mess and she is charmed by them in the best of ways!”

“we had a great experience with eric! He watched our two pups for daycare and was incredibly communicative throughout the day—sending lots of photo updates and checking in often. One of my dogs is usually very fearful of new people, but he was patient and kind, and she warmed up to him quickly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend eric !”

“Rina was fantastic!!!! My pup Tom had the best time. Rina is super sweet and sent a ton of photos. She was very thoughtful on how to present Tom to her pups and kept us updated the whole time. We will definitely keep bringing Tom to Rina! She is our go to in Seattle!!”

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!

“Thanks Jessica for taking great care of our pup Icky! Jessica was very communicative and we appreciated all the updates and photos. 10/10 would recommend”

“Mackenzie is amazing!! She is so sweet, caring, and takes such good care of my dog, Milo. Also her dog, Butter, is adorable. I'll be booking with her lots more in the future 😊”

“We are so happy we found Mercedez! We happened to be from out of town and needed a sitter to watch our Silver. We were anxious and worried about finding someone in a new town to take care of our fur baby. Mercedez was so great! She gave us updates and pictures to let us know how Silver was doing and you could tell Silver loved all the pets and cuddles too. She put us at ease, so it was an easy decision to use her again. We highly recommend her and look forward to booking her services again.”

“Henry, Colleen, and Phoebe are excellent hosts! They are super patient with our anxious dog, who after a few days of daycare, excitedly run right up to their house and in the door. It's such piece of mind to know Yoda is in such good hands:)”

“Ryan and Courtney did a great job with Mondo and reached out anytime they had questions to make sure they were taking the best care of him they could. They were also very understanding when I was running a bit late from work, which was very appreciated. I would definitely book with them again!”
