I've had Kallies help for 2 straight weeks now, and I have nothing but great things to say about her. She's very attentive and provides great updates as she walks my dogs. Thanks so much for your help!

I booked Elysia for daily walks for my dog for a week. She provided photos, notes and a map for each each day's walk. During the initial meet and greet, it was evident that Elysia had a good way with dogs. I would definitely book Elysia for dog walking again.

Lydia has been a wonderful addition to my dog walking team. She’s responsive to messages, flexible with individual needs, and dependable with care. She sends quality pictures and updates so I know how the walks went and how my pups are doing during her care. If she has questions or concerns during her time with the dogs she addresses them promptly and respectfully. I can trust no issue or concern will go unnoticed or unreported. I appreciate having Lydia as a trusted member of my team and can count on my dogs being well cared for and loved on while I am away.

Carrie is so incredible with my dog and cares for him as if he's her own! He loves when she arrives and gets so excited; he forgets about me! She's really good at obedience training while also showing the animals so much love and attention. Her sweet pup, Bruno, comes with her to my place because my dog and him get along SO well! They are best friends and I'm so glad he has a furry buddy to hang out and go on walks with while I'm away! 10 out of 10 and 100% recommend Carried to watch your pets next!

About: Our family of 3 have had many years caring for dogs. Krystal works from home as an independent contractor, working a few hours each day. She always had a dog to help take care of when growing up. Brian works with the Tacoma Fire Dept and is home many days of the week. He has helped with foster dogs for years as a young adult. Both of us will be available to give your dog or cat our full attention! Our 13yo daughter spent the last 6 years helping to care for our own dog, Iden (in pictures). When she is home from school, she will help us make sure your pet is entertained. Sadly, our sweet Iden, who was a corgi/husky mix, passed away unexpectedly in Sept of 2023. While not ready to adopt another fur baby, we have lots of love to give yours, which we look forward to! We live in a 2 bedroom apartment. Our favorite pastime with our own dog was cuddling, so in continuing with that tradition, we allow dogs/cats on our furniture. We will not leave dogs alone in our house without making sure it's okay with you! The majority of the time there will be walks and play time together. Our yard is not fenced in, yet we have tons of places to walk nearby in North Tacoma. There is also a fenced in doggie play yard within our complex. Videos and photos will be sent regularly to ensure you know your pet is doing well. Please make sure to text us if you'd like more! We request dogs are fully potty trained. If needed, we have water/food bowls for use, which are always disinfected after each use. Please let us know the following, depending on daycare, drop-ins, or simply going on walks: * Walking behaviors while leashed (aggressiveness, pulls, reactivity, etc) * Let us know if your dog needs longer than 30-60min walks (fees apply) * Bring favorite toys * Bring treats & foods * Any allergies to be aware of * Medical conditions/medications * Vet contact information Our family looks forward to providing a loving, safe, and fun environment for your pup or kitty! Send us a message and we can chat about any specifics :) For $20 off your first booking with us, use code KRYSTW3846 Krystal, Brian & Kalli 🐾 Krystal works part-time from home every day as an independent contractor, with flexible hours. Brian works in the Tacoma Fire Dept, with his schedule, he will be off many days and available to help. We look forward to getting out of the house more and playing with your dog or kitty! We will provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pup or kitty. If staying for the day, we will spend it playing with favorite toys, and going out on walking adventures. We will be sure to discuss which areas we will take your dog for walks, and ask if there are any areas too far away.

Sebastian is very professional and kind. He is easy to communicate with. Our dog is difficult to control on a leash but he handled her well over an hour long walk. Would highly recommend his services, and plan to book again! Thanks Sebastian!

About: I grew up with animals but really started taking care of pets when I bought a house with a backyard. My family and I volunteer and foster animals through the Humane Society and have cared for all types. Some of those pets have needed bottle feeding, injections, oral medication, as well as medicated baths. I have taken all of the certifications for Fear Free Shelters and am excited to further my training. I work from home and am available for your pet any day and time. I have weekends free as well for your sweet pup(s). Do you need daily sitting? Overnight and/or vacation boarding? How about daily walks? Your pet is welcome to join my crew anytime. I have a fenced yard for dogs to explore with my two friendly pups or on their own if they prefer. Does your pup need a dry area? I have a fenced off patio for dogs with injuries or fancy hairdos needing to be kept dry, rainy days, or escape artists who love to dig under fences like the Pokie Little Puppy. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I have experience with fearful dogs, injured, quiet, loud, etc. Dogs are allowed to nap on furniture or in a crate with comfy blankets, whichever they prefer. I have a puppy playpen if your dog is small and needs their own space but still wants to be a part of the action.

While our dog walker was on vacation, Alannah took great care of Lola for a week despite the rain and Lola's absolute hatred of it. We'd not hesitate to have her walk Lola again.
