Dog Sitting Renton

About: Your dog is SAFE, I am RESPONSIBLE and your dog is FAMILY, to me!!! I am physically fit, full of humor and just waiting for a dog or dogs to care for. I have a cat but he is not interested in outside adventures as he just sleeps, lol I am semi retired so I am flexible. When I'm not at the gym, I walk different dogs at my condo's, just for fun--honestly! I can provide references as well. Your dog is my "child", while in my care. I take this job/responsibly very seriously, which you will soon find out! We will play, run, and walk and quickly develop a love for each other!!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and loved taking care of them, and taking care of friends and family members legs while they are away. At any social gathering, you can find me snuggled up with the dog or cat, or talking to the bird or fish. I have a strong passion for taking care of animals and catering to their specific needs. I’m available before 7 am and after 6 pm on weekdays! Weekends are more open. I am full time employed Monday - Friday 8 am - 5 pm which can make it difficult to pay your furry friend a visit outside of weekends. I would still love to before 8 and after 5 if that’s flexible with you! I work out of Redmond and live in Renton. I have cared for dogs that require medications as well as my own kitty that has had special needs in the past. I will try my best to make sure your pet is as comfy as can be while you’re away!

About: I currently have two high energy pitbulls of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, active dogs and keeping them mentally and physically engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with different temperaments, along with playful puppies or senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine that you have set for your dog. I do also have experience with bite work when it comes to protection line and high energy breeds. Since I’m currently between jobs, I have a flexible, open schedule and can dedicate my full attention to your pet. I’m available 7 days a week, mornings through evenings, making me a great option for last-minute bookings or dogs that need extra company and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety is my number one priority. My home is fenced in and safe, and I’m here all day so your dog will never be left alone for long. I follow each owner’s routines closely, send regular photo updates, and will reach out immediately if anything comes up.

“Thank you! Toast had a great time.”

About: 🐾 What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, along with my hands-on experience in training, grooming, and behavior management. Growing up, I helped care for a Schipperke and later two Chihuahuas, where I developed a love for daily walks, grooming, and building strong relationships with dogs. As I got older, I wanted to expand my experience and raise a high-energy working breed, which led me to my Australian Shepherd, Bailey. 🐶 Since bringing Bailey home as a puppy 7 years ago, I’ve participated in obedience training, at-home training, 4-H, showing, herding, and swimming activities. I also learned how to groom her myself and developed a strong understanding of canine body language and behavior. Through raising her from puppyhood to adulthood, I learned how to recognize what dogs are communicating through their actions, energy levels, and routines. ❤️ I later welcomed a second Australian Shepherd, Willow, who has a completely different personality. She’s vocal, energetic, and more sensitive to certain environments, which taught me that every dog has unique needs and triggers. This experience helped me become adaptable and attentive to each dog’s individual personality. 🎓 In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve helped owners work on puppy house manners, basic obedience, and simple tricks. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from small companion breeds to larger breeds such as Labradors and German Shepherd mixes. ✨ Whether your dog needs an energetic walking partner, a patient sitter, reinforcement of good manners, or simply someone who understands their unique personality, I strive to provide care that makes them feel safe, understood, and loved. Pet care is already a major part of my daily and weekly routine. As the owner of two Australian Shepherds and a young cat, I’m used to planning my schedule around feeding times, exercise, playtime, grooming, and providing companionship. 🐶 My dogs receive daily walks and enrichment activities, and I regularly brush and groom them to keep them comfortable and healthy. My cat also gets dedicated playtime and attention throughout the day. Caring for pets isn’t something I fit in when I have spare time—it’s already an important part of my lifestyle. Because I’m accustomed to caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels, adding pet sitting, drop-in visits, or walks fits naturally into my routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on a long walk, playing fetch, providing enrichment, or simply keeping a pet company while their owner is away. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I start by learning about each pet’s schedule, personality, preferences, and any special instructions. I want to know things like feeding routines, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, areas they are allowed in, and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. For dogs, I provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, and plenty of companionship. I’m experienced with both high-energy dogs, like my Australian Shepherds, and more laid-back dogs who prefer a slower pace. I also reinforce house manners and any training routines owners are already working on. For cats, I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, and attention based on their comfort level. As a cat owner myself, I understand that some cats love to socialize while others prefer their space, and I adjust my care accordingly. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and body language. After raising dogs and cats with very different personalities, I’ve learned how important it is to recognize when a pet is excited, nervous, tired, overstimulated, or simply wants affection. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing a safe environment, consistent care, lots of love, and regular updates to owners so they can feel confident while they’re away.

“Savonne was a fantastic sitter for my dog. She followed instructions perfectly. She was very communicative, and also easy going. My Haru was a very happy girl when I came back to her. I would request again!”

“I'm so thankful Nhu is one of our regulars. She's been so helpful and really cares about my pups. Recently I asked for a very last minute drop-in visit when my pup got sick--she was so accommodating and made it work into her schedule, stayed longer than she needed to, and even cleaned up his accidents. She provides updates after her drop-in visits which I really appreciate as well :) Thanks Nhu!”

Crystal & Roy L.

“Olivia really helped us out with a last minute drop-in for our dog, Frida. Based on the lovely pictures, both our dog and our more sociable cat had a good ol’ time hanging out with Olivia and getting some quality pets. Our dog was happy when we got home, and we’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future for our pet care needs. Thanks for the solid assist, Olivia!”

Brooke & Giovanna S.

“Hunter was great! They were Professional, friendly and reliable. Will 100% book with Hunter again! Fast response and flexible with my last minute booking.”

About: My love for dogs started when I got my childhood dog Daisy, the sweetest lhasa apso in the world! Since then, I’ve taken care of many dogs, from my friends 3 year old golden doodle to my cousins dogs ( a mix of small chihuahuas and big german shepard’s). I love walking and playing with dogs and making sure they’re fed, clean, and comfy! I also have experience taking care of elderly dogs with more regimented and programmed care routines, including administering medicine in the form of pills or injections. During the year, I’m a para-professional sub, so I have summers off! I’m very flexible, weekdays and weekends and would love to spend as much time as I can helping folks take care of their pets while they work or go on summer vacation :) I offer attentive hands on care and make sure pets are taken care of while also making sure the home is taken care of! With a dog and a cat at my house, I know what it takes to make sure they’re taken care of while maintaining a clean and comfortable space!

“I had to reschedule my drop in times, and Chris was super flexible about it. Appreciated the cute pics and update on Daisy.”

“I couldn't ask for a more thoughtful sitter to care for my two cats! Nazli maintained great communication during their visits and made sure both feline friends were happy in my absence. I would definitely book again.”

About: I currently have 2 dogs and 3 chickens for 5 years and counting. I had three cats for about 10 years. Growing up I had dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters. Weekdays I'm available after work at 3pm. I'm available some weekend days for the whole day, and sometimes I have weekdays off and I'm available the whole day. My house has a fully fenced in backyard. Also a Greenway trail right behind us, and a park that is a 3 minute walk away.

“Xiaotong was great! She was very responsive and reliable. We appreciated that she was able to come for a meet and greet at the last minute and then took good care of our cats when we were gone.”

About: Hi there! I work from home and would love the opportunity to care for your pup. We have had dogs all our lives. In fact, one of my favorite jobs was working at a dog grooming salon. My husband and I have an adorable dog of our own named Oprah. She loves playing with other dogs, laying in the sun, chasing squirrels and snuggling up with humans under a warm blanket. She about 10 years old, so she’s slowed down a lot, but still like to be active and social. I work from home, but do head out of the house for up to 4 hours to run errands, walk other dogs, etc., so dogs that can’t be left alone for a few hours may not be the right fit for our household. We all look forward to making your pet feel right at home! I am available for boarding, drop ins and dog walking. We have a fully fenced yard and lots of cozy space to curl up and relax. We only board for 1 family at a time and require a meet & greet prior to booking to ensure the dogs get along well & to put your mind at ease while you are away from your pup!

“Thanks for meeting our dogs!”

About: I'm a one-person pet sitting business committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. I understand the special bond you share with them, and I treat each pet as if they were my own. Over the past 2 years, I have watched my friends and co-workers pets for them. Now I have my own business license and pet insurance to offer my services to anyone who are in need. My usual day starts with checking with clients pets in the morning and letting them out/feeding them, then during my lunch time I come back from work and let them out to go potty, in the evening I feed them then let them out one more time before I leave for the night. Sometimes my clients wants me to stay at their homes and I do for an extra charge. I have a dedicated area at my home for my client's pets. Then I always ask my clients for their veterinarian's contact information just in case for emergencies.

“Kaelyn is so through in her updates. We had some packages arrive while we were gone, she kindly placed them on my bed for me. My cats absolutely LOVE her. We will definitely rebook her.”

About: Hi, I’m Jamie! Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve had both cats and dogs over the years and have cared for pets through every stage of life, from wiggly puppies to senior pets needing extra love. Along the way, I’ve picked up experience in training, end-of-life care, and reading pet body language to make sure every animal feels safe and understood. I work from home full-time and also run my own business, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets. That means I can be there when you need someone reliable, whether it’s for walks, check-ins, or extra cuddles. My goal is always simple: to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for, just like they’re part of my own family. At home, I have two dogs and a cat—each with their own quirks and personalities—so I know firsthand how important it is to follow specific instructions and give each animal the attention they need. I’d love the chance to care for your pets and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home and I own my own business so I am able to make my own schedule which gives me some flexibility when it comes to offering pet care. My goal is always to make sure animals feel comfortable with me and I am comfortable with following specific care instructions. I have 2 dogs and a cat at home who all have very different personalities and needs.
