⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible Dog Walking Experience with Jeffrey P! I cannot recommend Jeffrey P enough! He took my 14-month-old Siberian Husky, Henry, out for an hour-long walk yesterday, and the experience was nothing short of fantastic. Henry is full of energy and can be quite a handful, but Jeffrey handled him with such skill, patience, and care. When Henry returned home, he was happy, well-exercised, and completely content—exactly what every Husky owner hopes for! Jeffrey’s professionalism, punctuality, and genuine love for dogs truly set him apart. It’s clear that he understands how to work with high-energy breeds, and I felt completely at ease knowing Henry was in great hands. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog walker, Jeffrey P is the best choice. I will absolutely be booking with him again!

About: I’ve had dogs for 30+ years… Most recently two french bulldogs and a vizsla! I raised them all from puppies to old age. I’m experienced at all the stages and issues that loving and caring for animal requires. I’m semi retired and have a lot of time and energy to care for your pets. I recently lost my french bulldog Pierre to old age and cancer… I have a lot of love to give to your pet and can’t wait to meet them. I work from home a few hours a week… I’m active and love to walk along the waterfront. I do not have a yard… I live in a small apt above the pike place market. I am experienced with dogs that need meds and training and can handle both. My location is best for dogs that like walks and park play time. I’ve fostered animals both big and small… some with manners and some without (lol). Happy to create a schedule that works best for your pet… and they will be cared for as if they were my own.

Anna was so great with walking our dog, Cleo! She came over the day before to learn about Cleo’s routines & get a layout of the house and yard. Anna walked Cleo & played fetch with her in the yard. She also sent pictures :) we will definitely be using Anna in the future for our drop-in and walking needs!

About: I grew up on a ranch, helping to care for animals from the exotic pet trade as part of their rehabilitation. This also gave me an understanding of animal body language, respect for their quality of life, and the patience to train them. I work from home on art commissions, but love to get a chance to go outside. Because of this, my schedule is quite open and flexible for daytime. It is totally up to what the client requests for their pets care, but as per my morals, I only train pets through positive reinforcement. Patience and understanding are the core elements of how I approach animals and especially pets. At home I have a small crate and 2 small friendly dogs that free roam because they are my good little princesses.

About: I have experience with dog sitting for a family member on and off if they were out for the day or on a trip out of town for a longer period of time. I also sat for a friend that has both a cat and a dog. My other skills include babysitting (I have done this while dog sitting at the same time) and some experience in senior home care. For a period of 6 months, I took care of another family member managing their tube-feeding, medications, and working together with the nurse team to communicate updates, issues and check in on appointments. I do work online, currently building a business. I try to schedule my work around typical business hours (between 8am-5pm) but can adjust around for pet care sits or visits since I'm remote. I do most tasks Monday-Friday with the most availability being on the weekends, most specifically Saturdays. I am very good with taking directions on pets' needs. If they have a certain schedule or specialized regimen, I make sure to keep track and make sure the same rhythm is kept as if the owner is still with them. I also respect the ground rules of a client's home knowing that they are trusting to me by allowing me the visit. I also like learning the different personalities so I'd like to try and bond with the pets even if it's for a short time!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, from energetic, high-maintenance breeds like huskies to senior cats who need a gentler, more attentive approach. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I adapt my care to meet those individual needs. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy dog’s exercise needs or providing calm, patient companionship to older pets, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, loving care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I’m able to give them lots of attention and companionship. I also offer boarding, so your pet can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a home environment while you’re away! Creating a safe, trusting, and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize supervision, patience, and positive interactions. I also provide regular updates and communication so pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry family member is in good hands.

About: My family has worked with english bulldogs for 10 years and since the age of 13 I've played a big role in their care and upbringing. I've cleaned up just about every mess you can imagine, and fed and bathed them since they were pups. I also have experience caring for cats as a house-sitter. As a pet owner I know how important our fur companions are. I will give your pets the same love and attention I would want someone to give mine. I work part-time and have a generally flexible schedule. I can easily drop in during the middle of the day, and schedule walks and other activities as needed. For walking, if your dog has a preferred route just let me know. I can accommodate your specific needs for your pet in the home. Cate / Kennel needs, etc.

We booked Laurie for a multi-day walk schedule and she was great!! Responsive and prompt communication, showed up on time for each walk and it was obvious that she is an animal lover who will take great care of your pet. She gave us a rundown after each walk and brought some enrichment games, but always checked with us to make sure we were okay with her plan - very responsible and respectful. Fred was STOKED to see her each morning and we will definitely rebook in the future. Bonus: Laurie has great taste in tv shows, evident from her dog Lazlo (not Jackie Daytona, regular human guy).

About: I have been dog sitting for neighbors and friends since I was 16. I love hanging out with dogs of all sizes. I grew up with two yellow labs and it was so fun to run, bike, hike with them and show them as much love as they show us! I have two part time jobs that start at various times every day. I am a runner and love walking and exploring neighborhoods! My boyfriend and I are getting ready to get a dog ourselves so I am aware of the attention dogs need. I fully respect that each dog owner does things differently. I am able to keep dogs safe and healthy by using the tools the owner provides as well as following instructions

About: I genuinely love all animals. I am the kid that never grew out of that animal obsession phase and will love any animal and pet like it’s my own. I have cared for animals of all sizes even experience in farm animals! I work part time at a restaurant in Bellevue with lots of days off/time available throughout the day. With three days off and usually open for early morning and off of work by 4-5pm. When I am pet sitting I am always hanging out with the animals! Unless they are sleeping ;) I see pet sitting someone else’s beloved fur babies as a privilege so appropriate supervision is important with me. I treat animals like children with love and attention at all times. ❤️

Kyla is the best walker I’ve ever had. I trust her fully with my puppy. She is attentive, communicative and flexible. She personally assessed my dog’s pain level in the days following an injury and adjusted his activity level to match, carrying him to the park for training games one day and taking him on a bus trip the next (which is great socialization). To top it off, she takes adorable photos during every walk which never cease to brighten my day.
