“It was my first experience getting a dog walker and Morgan was fantastic! Followed all directions perfectly, provided pictures, and left Thanos very happy. Highly recommend :)”
“Elyla was absolutely amazing. My grandma watched my very high energy Husky, Kira, over the Christmas break. My grandma has a bad back so I asked Elyla to come walk her once a day. When my grandma realized how energetic Kira was, she asked Elyla if she could come twice daily. Elyla agreed and quickly became Kira's favorite person. Elyla even bought Kira a Christmas present (a sweet little monkey toy and dog treats)! That alone would have been more than enough, but when Kira escaped from my grandmas house, Elyla actually drove from her house to help my grandma find her. She is the best dog buddy I could have hoped for and clearly has a heart of gold. Thanks so much Elyla!”
“Anastasiya was great with Nacho during a last minute switch to my schedule! She was flexible and came at the time asked for. Really appreciate her taking out my little guy for a walk. Will be using her next time!”
“We asked Ian to walk Maya, and we loved how he took care of our dog! He sent us so many videos and photos, I knew Maya was in good hands but more importantly— getting the stimulation she needed! Definitely recommend!”
About: Hello, my name is Kacee. I have lived with and cared for many different breeds of dogs (and some cats!) IE. Cane corso, australian cattle dog, a great dane and my own grey lab! Each have their own personalities and ways they need to be cared for and loved on which will be different for all dogs even across the same breed. I understand that some dogs need more time and love to warm up to new people and some will just smother you with love the very second they meet you, each are loving and caring in their own way. My dog is a sweet energetic pup who takes time to warm up to new people but all dogs are friends on first sight! I have a very open schedule with doing freelance photography work so I can work some fun with furry friends into my schedule very easily! I care for pets as I would care for my own baby fur child. Ensuring they get everything they need along with plenty of pets and love.
“I was away on a work trip and needed someone to walk my husky throughout the week. Katelyn was patient with our crazy husky who likes to pull on the leash. She is great at communicating and was super easy to work with. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Alison is responsible, punctual, and very positive in her approach. She managed to take a nervous puppy who wouldn’t get out of her crate up to the level where she now has a new friend who wants to share her favorite blanket. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!”
About: Hi there! I grew up in a family deeply connected to animal care—my father was a veterinarian working with the animal CDC, and I spent much of my childhood surrounded by animals, even playing in the local zoo thanks to a family friend who was the zoo director! Our family has always had a special bond with dogs, especially our beloved black poodle, and my mom later became a community leader advocating for responsible pet ownership and better dog welfare. With this unique upbringing, I’ve developed a natural ability to understand dogs’ behavior and needs. I connect with them quickly, helping them feel safe, calm, and happy. Though I don’t currently have a pet due to apartment restrictions, I regularly care for my friends’ dogs and cats, taking them on beach trips, car rides, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I treat every dog like family—with patience, respect, and joy—because I believe every pet deserves not just care, but experiences that make tails wag and hearts full. As a part-time semi-professional violinist, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your furry friend. Since I’m currently living in an apartment that isn’t ideal for having a dog of my own, becoming a pet sitter is the perfect way for me to stay connected with animals I love. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs—not just walking and playing, but also offering them comfort and companionship. Pet care brings me joy and balance, and I see every visit as a chance to create a win-win: your pet gets a loving, attentive sitter, and I get the happiness of being around animals that make life better. At the moment, I’m not offering in-home boarding unless your pup is already comfortable living in an apartment environment. I want to make sure they feel safe and happy here! As for staying in clients’ homes, I generally don’t offer that service for personal safety reasons—though I’ll admit, if your pup is way too cute to resist, I just might make an exception. 😊
“Jana is the best. She has been very reliable and helpful with my senior dog on walks she has been recovering from surgery. Very appreciative of Jana’s care and professionalism!”
About: Since I was a kid, I shared a home with larger rescue dogs—Labs, rottweilers, great Danes —and gentle cats, all adopted from our local humane society. Caring for their varied temperaments taught me to read canine body language, manage exuberant greetings, and nurture shy rescues into confident companions. When I moved to apartments I continued to have cats as I was in smaller spaces but still made to give them plenty of snuggles and toys. For the past 12 years, I’ve been the devoted guardian/mother/servant of a blind, senior Pom-Chi who was debarked after being rescued from a puppy mill. I’ve perfected low-pile flooring for safe navigation to his soft bed, vocal cues to guide him, and an unwavering medication routine that will ensure he will continue to live a hundred more years. Currently I'm a student and am on summer break until the end of September. So my availability is fairly flexible for the next month and half. During school I will be available on weekends and during thursdays. I I'm happy to step into your space to make sure your pet feel completely at ease. My approach centers on learning each animal’s unique personality and daily rhythm so they experience consistency, comfort, and connection while you’re away. I firmly believe in not rushing the process to build trust.
“Thank you so much! Very sweet and asked me more about my pup. She kept me informed and communicated well with pictures. Great individual and am definitely booking again!”
About: I have good experience babysitting cats and dogs of different breeds and personalities . I’m patient, and a loving person. Reliable and responsible person. Also looking to exercise more with a furry companion. I am open to do first meetings :) I’m current between jobs, and waiting for my graduation. Looking to do extra cash meanwhile ☺️ I have time to do walks and feeding visits. My apartment is safe with security all day and night. I live with my cat therefore all risks have been taken away for cat safety.
About: Hi! My name is Celeste. I’ve lived in the Seattle area for 8 years cumulatively and I *love* dogs. I’ve had dogs my whole life: including a cocker spaniel, a golden retriever, and a long haired daschund! These days I occasionally foster with a local non profit dedicated to saving animals. I should note, I will not have a foster animal at my place unless I explicitly say so in a message before booking. I’m available for your long weekend trips. I love taking long walks around Seattle, and if your dog is up for it, happy to jog with them too! I generally do not take dogs to dog parks. While I’m predominately available over the weekend, I can do long weekends as I work remotely Friday and can pop home on my lunch break on Thursdays and Mondays to check in. Any questions? Just ask! My schedule is flexible and I’m fully remote Fridays.. Would love to walk your pup over the lunch hour, or after work! Let me know if any special requests! I go out of my way to make sure everything is safe and well taken care of. I love instructions and lists so don’t hesitate to show me how to best love your fur baby! I generally don’t take dogs to dog parks because there are so many factors out of my control, but defer to you. Other dogs will not come over while your dog is at my place.
About: Hi, I’m Fenil! Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I had the joy of raising my golden retriever for 12 wonderful years—through his energetic puppy days to his final moments, giving him all the love and care he deserved. I’ve also raised kittens and even nursed a baby squirrel with a broken leg back to health. As an architect currently between jobs, I have the time and heart to fully dedicate to your furry companions. Whether it’s playful walks, belly rubs, or extra care for senior pets, I’ll be there with patience and love. I truly understand how much they mean to you, and I’ll treat them as my own. Can’t wait to meet your best friend! As an animal lover currently between jobs, pet care is my priority. I have the time to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and companionship, ensuring each pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for every day. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness by following your instructions and routines closely. Whether it’s feeding schedules, crate training, or medication, I ensure consistency to minimize stress. Walks are always safe and controlled, and I tailor playtime to your pet’s energy and needs. I aim to be an extension of your care, ensuring your pet feels secure, loved, and ready to relax after our time together.
About: Experienced with puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’m skilled in basic training, medication administration, and providing extra TLC to pets who need it most. Patient, reliable, and truly passionate about making every pet feel loved and safe. My Pet Care Schedule I work full-time Monday through Thursday from 7 AM to 4 PM, so I'm available for evening visits those days. Fridays and Saturdays, I'm completely free and can offer flexible care, including drop-ins, walks, or extended stays. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine—it's the best part of my day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow your routines closely, keep spaces clean and pet-proof, and make sure there’s plenty of love, play, and quiet time. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you're away.

Kacee R.
“Kacee has taken care of our dogs in our home several times. Each time I have been able to fully enjoy our time away knowing that they will take the very best care of our pups. We have two dogs, Benny a 17 year old Beagle Corgi and Archie a 6 year old Terrier mix. They have very different needs with Benny being very senior and Archie still young and energetic. Kacee is able to give them each what they need. They have also been very good about keeping me updated when Benny seems like he might be struggling. It's hard to leave an old dog but I feel like we're still able to occasionally do it when Kacee is in our home. We prefer to have someone stay in our home so the dogs can be in their own environment. But Kacee has also cared for our neighbors dogs, doing drop-ins throughout the day and I know my neighbors have been pleased with their services in those circumstances as well. I am very happy to recommend Kacee as an excellent dog sitter across the spectrum of your pup's life. And I also feel great comfort knowing that they are also keeping an eye on our home while we're away.”

Yiran Z.
“Sharon watched our dog, Scooby on multiple occasions, always at least 2 nights. He had the time of his life with her. She would take him on walks at different parks, make sure he wouldn't get too hot during the heat of summer, and would send me update pictures of what they were up to. She is so thoughtful and caring. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a dog sitter.”

Tashaun K.
“Tashuan recently watched my 2 dogs and 2 cats, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and service she provided. From the moment we connected, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly warm with my pets. She made sure everyone was fed on time, walked the dogs regularly, and even spent time playing and cuddling with all four of them. It was clear they felt safe and loved in her care. I received updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Tashuan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for their pets. She truly went above and beyond!”

Ian does such a nice job taking care of our two dogs. He has taken them out for daily walks and covered brief stays while I've traveled. He is flexible, friendly, communicative and accommodating. I trust Ian and know both dogs look forward to their next adventures with him!
I highly recommend Alice! I can’t thank her enough for taking such a great care of my dog. My puppy was so happy and clearly well-loved throughout the time she’s walked him. She responded quickly to my request, came early, and treated my dog with so much affection. I left special instructions as my dog is kind of reactive and she followed them very well. I high recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet!
Daniel was amazing!!! We had to make arrangements with the Hyatt for Daniel to pick up sweet Ivy, it was very short notice and Daniel was super flexible and accommodating! Daniel took great care of Ivy on her walks and provided photos for our piece of mind. When in Seattle again, will most certainly contact Daniel for our pets care needs. Highly Recommended!!
Taylor was wonderful with Goji. She sent the perfect amount of pics, was always on time, and made everything very easy. Goji is fairly big and can be aggressive towards other dogs, but I never worried about him with Taylor and would trust her to watch him anytime.
Allie is so patient with my anxious, nervous rescue dog Lucy. Lucy has a strong sense of stranger danger but she took to Allie quickly and is now excited about their walks together. Allie clearly has a way with animals and going at the pace needed to make an anxious dog comfortable. Could not recommend Allie more, especially if you have an animal with a strong personality or nervous tendencies!
Mai took amazing care of my dog while I was in Seattle for the summer, walking him every day while I was at work and also having him for an overnight visit. Can’t recommend Mai highly enough!! It was easy to communicate, be flexible with schedule changes, and my dog was super happy.
