“Alex is so great with our dog! Loki loves going on walks with him, and Alex always sends cute pictures and gives us updates. Highly recommend!”

About: I've spent a lot of time around furry companions throughout my life, now with an old cavachon and a cavapoochon puppy. Life is never boring when they're around and I'm always welcoming new pups! My availability is wide open, so whatever schedule fits your needs is one that I can probably make work as well. Just let me know! My own pups enjoy daily walks, plenty of outside play time, and lots of rewards for each good behavior. I think every pet deserves consistent enrichment and rewards!

“Nathan was great with our dogs and accommodated a late request for dog coverage without a proper introduction. He communicated leading up to and during visits, giving updates when our oldest dog was a bit off after recovering. Super appreciative and our old man pups were well taken care!”

“So grateful to have Emily's help when I couldn't walk our dog for medical reasons. Emily persuaded Dweezil to stay out long enough to take care of business even though Dweezil wanted to come home because she was worried about me.”

“Bri is absolutely amazing!!! She take wonderful care of my little girl. Shakti loves her walks with Bri. I have so much peace of mind knowing Shakti is in great hands. She is a rescue & can be high energy & reactive. Bri handles her with grace & expertise. Can't recommend her enough.”

“For as long as I have known Courtney, every dog we have ever met has loved her. My dog, who is infamous for biting, has a sweet spot for her. She truly is a very experienced and trustworthy candidate for a dog owner looking for a sitter.”

“Kristen is great! Always on time, communicates and is enthusiastic about walking Sampson. My schedule is kind of crazy and it helps to have someone to rely on to get Sampson exercise and time out of the house. 10/10 would definitely recommend!”

“Kallie was so great and patient with our pups! They’re both pretty sure around new people and she took the time to get on their level and get them comfortable with her. She clearly cares about animals and it shows in her interactions. Thanks Kallie!!”

“Sage was great! Her notes are detailed and gave me a great sense of how the walk went. She was timely and communicative. I felt very comfortable with her walking Rue and I know Rue was happy afterwards!”

“Mollie's been walking my two dogs twice a week for a couple of weeks now, and it's been great! She was very thoughtful in the initial meeting and follow up, making sure she knew what the discipline and activity goals are for each of them. The girls are calmer when I get home at night and it's a lot of peace of mind knowing how well they're taken care of by her. Highly recommend.”

About: Veteran and current student at UW, I do my best to ensure your pets are not just taken care of - its not just business! I look forward to meeting, connecting, and playing with all your pets! I'm currently on summer break from school, my schedule is pretty far open aside from any independant events that might pop up. Let me know and I'm sure we can make something work! I like to try to proactively communicate any concerns about boundaries in and around your premises. Communication is the key to a developing a safe environment for everyone.

“Elysia was so awesome ! Our pup can be a handful but she handled him with love and really came through on some last minutes walks :) Elysia has a true compassion for dogs and was very knowledgeable about ways to calm our dog and also have a great time on walks with him. He was a tired and happy puppy when he returned home . Thank you !!”

About: My name is Danielle and if you need a dog sitter or walker who can tire out a seemingly tireless pup, I can be your girl! I am comfortable with and love every breed of dog. I have owned a high energy Australian Shepherd for most of my life and currently have a 6 year old Border Collie/German Shepherd, so I know what it’s like to handle a dog that constantly keeps you on your toes and has unique quirks. Your dog will be happy and safe with me! I have a gentle demeanor with dogs and have experience with reactive dogs, as well as ones who are timid and take a while to warm up to people. I strongly identify with a positive reinforcement approach, and will treat your dog the same way I would want mine to be taken care of! I also love taking care of cats, and can confidently say that people will be surprised how their timid cats warm up to me so fast. I am gentle with them and will always give them as much space, or as much attention, as they prefer. I can handle medications and special diets, as I have a cat of my own who has had his run with urinary issues. A lot of cat owners request daily drop-ins while they’re away, and if that’s what you need I will make sure to make the most sure out of my time there, with play or enrichment time if that’s what they like! Don't be afraid to have as many details as you think is needed to make sure I know exactly what your dog/cat needs. It can be nerve wracking to trust strangers with your pets, and I want to reassure you that they will be in the best care possible so you can be stress free. I take my dog out whether there’s rain or sunshine and will do the same for yours. I have more time over the weekends to spend as much time as needed with your pups, but I do work during the week. We will absolutely snuggle on the couch and watch movies together and go on lots of walks. I am a big proponent of good daily play time and enrichment time.

“Our Goose loves Laura and we are super happy to have her as a resource as well (for now and the future!) She’s flexible, chill & friendly and responds very quickly to any messages. We truly appreciate her :)”

“Erica was on time and took good care of Lucy as they walked the neighborhood”

“Alyssa is great! She communicates well, is punctual and seems to make great use of time with my Oakley. And based on the great pics she takes, it looks like he really likes her! I will definitely continue to use her walking services.”

“Baylee has been a great addition to my Rover sitter team. She’s trustworthy, communicative, and Ruby clearly loves her time with Baylee.”

“Puneet's kind and caring nature extends not only to her friends and family, but also to the pets that she cares for and watches. She has been a wonderful guinea-pig mom over the past 4 years, and has been an excellent dog sitter to different breeds. When dog sitting, she makes sure the pets have enough food and water, along with multiple walks and many belly rubs.”

“Brandi was great with my pup Moby! He’s a high energy dog and can sometimes be a lot to handle. He’s also not the best walker so I was glad to hear she was able to handle and enjoy their walk around the park together without issue. Will definitely be reaching out to her again if the need arises!”
