“Rachel was an amazing dog walker and care taker for my dog Ace! She provided detailed and timely updates about her walks with him and she offered good training and guidance. She is so sweet and a joy to work with. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was a kid, have several cats at my home in West Tacoma, and love spending time with dogs of friends and family. I live in West Tacoma and have availability weekdays and weekends in mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Open for mid-day visits and walks, short or long term sitting, and more. I have cats in my home (and sometimes foster kittens) so I’m very familiar with helping cats get comfortable in new spaces or around me for the first time. Careful around open doors, clean and tidy, and respectful of your space!

“Drew is sweet, caring and professional. My animals love her visits and taking care of them. 10/10 would rebook”

“Baylee is great! Gave consistent and detailed updates for daily mid morning dog walks. She went above and beyond to ensure our pup was well exercised and entertained. I hope she’ll be available to dog walk for us again soon!”

“Jennifer is an incredible dog walker, and we feel so lucky to have found her. She takes amazing care of our dog and always goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy, safe, and well-exercised. We especially love the thoughtful updates and adorable photos she sends—it gives us total peace of mind when we’re away. She’s dependable, kind, and truly treats our dog like her own. She’s even gone the extra mile by cleaning up after multiple accidents in our home while we were away, which we deeply appreciate. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals and takes pride in her work. We couldn’t recommend Jennifer more highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog walker.”

“Met Elizabeth for a meet and greet for more frequent walks while I’m at work. She was super punctual and sweet with my little Koda. She asked a lot of questions to make sure she could provide Koda with the best walk possible. I look forward to working more with her!”

About: I have experience with dogs of all breeds and personalities! I grew up in a dog-loving household, and have been a trusted pet-sitter for family friends and neighbors throughout the years. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and special needs pets too! I am well equipped to take care of your pup, and keep them safe and happy while they are in my care. I am a young professional living in Tacoma and am looking to fill some of my free time with animal time! 🐶 Since I currently make my own work schedule, my availability is abundant! I can be trusted to maintain a consistent feeding/walking/play schedule. I am easily reachable by phone and am happy to send photo and text check-ins.

“Megan is such a kind soul and really a blessing and is really good with nova. Nova always gets excited when Megan comes around. I've already mentioned how wonderful she is with communication but I'll say it again because she is a rockstar”

About: Newly establishing myself in Tacoma for pet care after a decade of owning my own walking/boarding company in Seattle, working in veterinary, doggy daycare, and more. My clients enjoy my reliability, safety precautions, professionalism, and extensive experience with canine health and behavior. I love all dogs from puppies to elders, and will happily tailor my services to meet individual needs. Located in Proctor, I’m taking clients across Tacoma. I’m an artist by trade and love supplementing this work with dog walking as it gets me out of the studio and connects me with dogs, nature, and my community. There’s never been a time in my life when I didn’t have a dog. As the ultimate companion, I know how precious they are to their families, and how deeply important it is to care for each client as if they were my own. My boy, Stu, a 7 year old Cambodian pitbull means the world to me, so I make sure to offer the same level of care to my clients as I do to him.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and treat them like I do my children! They are in great hands with me! Animal Activist here! I’m retired and thus I would be exactly what I want to do now that I’m free to. At this time I have no pets so this would be wonderful! I’m all about safety with pets and they are treated like my children. I do not have a fenced yard so in my home they would no go out unless on leash.

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life from rodents to dogs. I have experience with labradors, basset hounds, German shepherds, Shih Tzus, and cocker spaniels. I also have had bunnies, turtles, ferrets, and I currently have 2 guinea pigs! I love all dogs, big or small! When I was in high school, I got my own yellow lab- Sedona. I trained her on basic commands: sit, stay, paw, lay down, roll over, and polite walking manors! I recently retired from the Army, and I have a flexible, part time recreation job. Mornings and Evenings are typically the best time for me to schedule, but because my schedule is flexible I can make accommodations! Whatever guidance I am given to respect someone’s home I will do! As for dog walking, I keep all dogs on a leash for their safety. I can do long walks or short- fast paced or slow sniff everything walks.

“Erica has been walking our pups for almost a year. She has always been available, always been punctual, and has always been a great communicator. Our dogs love her and are always excited to see her. Even our one dog who was abused and doesn't like most people took to her right away. Rest assured when you choose Erica your pets are in great hands. Thank-you for always taking such good care of our pups!”

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong animal lover with more than 55 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. Growing up and working on a farm, I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life. This experience taught me how to understand animal behavior, recognize their needs, and provide safe, compassionate care. Dogs and cats have always been part of my family, and I have extensive experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I am a longtime follower of Cesar Millan's principles of calm, confident leadership and believe that consistency, patience, exercise, and positive interactions help pets feel secure and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, companionship while you're away, or attentive overnight care, I will treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your pets feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits very well into my schedule because I am semi-retired and have significant flexibility and control over my time. I can adjust my daily activities to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care as needed. Because I manage my own schedule, I am able to provide reliable, attentive care and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I enjoy spending time with animals and appreciate the opportunity to stay active while helping pet owners feel confident that their pets are receiving the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Dogs in my care are treated as part of the family and are welcome on the furniture if boarding in my home. I believe pets are happiest when they feel included, comfortable, and surrounded by positive attention. My home is located next to a beautiful waterfront walking path, providing a safe and enjoyable setting for regular exercise and outdoor time. All dogs are walked on a leash to ensure their safety while exploring the area. I carefully monitor each pet's needs, energy level, and comfort to make sure they receive the right balance of activity, companionship, and rest. I understand the trust pet owners place in a caregiver, and I am committed to providing dependable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
