Dog Walking Seward

About: Pet sitter with over a decade of experience. I currently specialize in pets with special needs: 🦴 Seniors 🦴 Deaf/blind 🦴 Rescues/Trauma informed care 🦴 Medication administration Formerly an early childcare director, so the safety & well being of your loved ones is my top priority. I am big on communication and enjoy sending updates, photos and videos while caring for fur babies. I work a very flexible job that allows me to be in and out of the house each day. Communication is paramount for me - prior to beginning services I will get to know you and your pet(s), and we will discuss your priorities and expectations to ensure a positive experience for your fur baby. At this time I am only offering services at clients’ homes. I have several references available for your peace of mind. I enjoy sending multiple detailed updates throughout the day, with pictures or videos as well! Comfortable administering medication and providing puppy, kitten, or senior pet care.

“Mari is excellent. She is sweet with our dog, very prompt with messages, and our dog was noticeably calmer after walking with Mari.”

Jamie H.

“He has walked my dog multiple times and has done an amazing job! He was super flexible the whole time and was able to adjust the walk time every time I had a change in schedule. He was also super good about communicating (running early, running a little late, etc.) and took multiple really cute pictures of my pup every time Jarrett walked him. My pup also seemed to really like him. I would definitely use him again!”

About: I've cared for two dogs as I grew up, and look forward to caring for more. I have done many long walks and dog park hiking with my golden doodle, and have also done some training as well. I know how to take care of puppies and adult dogs, but would love to learn how to take care of special needs and senior dogs. Dogs, like mine, are energetic and need lots of exercise, so I am always willing to play or exercise with dogs. Over the summer (June-August), I am free most afternoons and some evenings the whole week. During the school year, (September-May) I am more available during the weekends, but still free during some afternoon/evenings during the week, which I'll update as I get my schedule. At home, I care for my dog by giving him plenty of snuggles, but also getting up and playing with him when he lets me know he wants to play. I am alert and can sense what my dog may need, such as going potty, playing, or eating. When walking/going to the dog park, I watch over my dog at all times, and walk along with him. During walks, I make sure that he is safe to walk and sniff the whole time. At dog parks, I encourage him to meet other dogs and run around while still being present. I notice when my dog gets tired or needs water, and I am prepared by bringing a water bottle.

About: I have had cat for most of my life and been a dog groomer for the past 6 years. I've been safety certified and senior dog handling certified. Dog grooming as given me experience with a wide variety of pets with different needs and temperament. I have pet sat for many clients, friends and family. I have experience administering medications for dogs and cats. I'm currently taking a break from Dog grooming. I need my dog fix! I am available for mornings and evenings as well as overnight stays. I give the pets some time to get used to me in their space before I interact with them to not overwhelm them. I'm experienced at reading pet body language

About: With 11 years of hands-on experience caring for both my own pets and others’, I specialize in cats and dogs — I know how to read their body language, keep them comfortable, and stick to their routines. Since I work from home, your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. And because I don’t have other pets in my home, your pet gets my full, undivided attention — no competing for space, food, or affection with a resident animal. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, not just around it. My work is flexible, so I’m either home or able to come back frequently throughout the day — your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m available all seven days of the week, so there’s no gap in coverage between weekdays and weekends. Boarding • Your pet stays in my home with no other pets competing for attention. I keep feeding and routines on schedule, and since I work from home, someone’s around for most of the day. Drop-ins • I follow whatever routine you’ve set — feeding, medication, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and playtime — with a photo update after each visit. Walks • One walk a day, paced to your pet’s comfort level, on-leash and supervised the whole time. I pay close attention to their cues, especially with cats and small-to-medium dogs, where I have the most hands-on experience. House-sitting • I usually do NOT stay at clients homes overnight or for extended periods during the day! • I will check in with your pets in the AM/PM (as needed) and follow their routines so their schedule is consistent, and provide photos throughout the stay. *Every visit ends with a photo, so you always know your pet is happy and cared for.

About: I absolutely love cats and dogs of all kinds. My passion for felines and pups comes from personal experience caring for my own pets and family and friends pets. I adopted my beloved kitty, Bella, when she was just a tiny kitten, and I lovingly cared for her for 17 years until her passing at the end of 2025. I miss her and the unique connection I share with cats, which is why I became a sitter—to bring that same level of care to other pet families. Through caring for Bella into her senior years, I became highly experienced in senior cat care. I understand that older kitties require a gentler touch, a calm environment, and extra patience. I am fully comfortable and experienced with administering oral and transdermal medications, ensuring your pet maintains their health routine seamlessly while you are away. I recently entered early retirement. This means I have a very flexible schedule, and can easily adapt to your pet's specific routine. I will provide them with plenty of dedicated attention, playtime, and love! I have a lot of flexibility and plenty of open time throughout the day. I can easily adapt my daily routine around your pet’s specific feeding times, medication windows, and need for company. During my visits, I focus on attentive care, safety, and just spending time together. I treat your home with total respect. I strictly follow instructions for feeding and prompt medication delivery. I spend the rest of the visit providing companionship, keeping the litter box clean, the water bowl refreshed, and giving gentle head scratches.

“She has done wonderful with my fur baby. Very patient with great communication.”

“Sam is always extremely attentive and loving to our dogs. Great communication with her as well, we always know when she's going to be able to get over to our place or needs to reschedule.”

Jesse D.

“Alana did a wonderful job with Theo! Her communication was amazing and Theo was relaxed when we came home so I could tell he was well taken care of. His coat looked great too so I could see that she brushed him. I will definitely use Alana again.”

Emily-Kate N.

“Tony was super friendly, had great communication and was awesome with our girls on their walks. Wrigley and Griffey were stoked when Tony came for their evening walks. My in-laws and my husband and I have nothing but great things to say about him! We will be using him again! Highly recommend!”

“Launa is a gem. She is patient and understanding with my dog’s quirks ;) She has been reliable and available for repeat walks and I really appreciate that.”

About: *** I now travel for clients for stays 2+ weeks. Pricing TBD. Thank you!*** That title quote was from a former employer, owner of a pet care company. She turned to me when all else failed. Best compliment, ever! I meet with first time clients to get the lay of the land. We go over everything from vet contact info, to the everyday things- food, exercise, the chasing of squirrels. :) Schedule is tailored to your munchkins needs. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to come and go when doing overnights. We can discuss. I do not do boarding. I only sit in my clients homes, where their pets are usually the happiest. Just like us! (Their own bed, blankie and bowl!)

About: Iv been with animals for all of my life from fish to hamsters to big dogs. I even graduated from the school of environmental studies. Iv been taking care of our family dogs for years and even helping my grandma s with her own two. In the summer going out to the dog park and long walks to staying inside during the big snowstorms cuddled up. It feels weird not to have an animal by my side Iv delt with both young and elderly animals, giving them medication, care and proper treatment. I was toght to always leave a place in better condition then when you found it

“Marit was really helpful with filling a last-minute request to walk our dog! I appreciated the photos and communication and would definitely book Marit again.”

Casey P.

“Jara is great with my two very different dogs. She is flexible, reliable and helpful! She was very patient with my key screwups! Will hire again:).”

Rene N.

“Amber did an amazing job walking our dog while we were our of town, and for several days beforehand! Our girl is a reactive rescue, and Amber was so kind and calm with her, which made all the difference. Our dog happily went with Amber for each walk, which was amazing, and Amber even braved a snowstorm to take our girl out for her walkies! Amber was also so flexible with scheduling, which was a huge help. We’ll definitely keep working with Amber in the future.”

About: With 12 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and understanding to every furry friend I meet. Growing up in a pet-loving family, I had the joy of bonding with cats and dogs alike, and now I have a sweet pup of my own who continues to teach me every day. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have some training experience that helps me connect with each pet’s unique needs and personality. To me, animals are the most precious beings, and they deserve more than just basic care—they deserve to be loved, respected, and pampered. I will always go out of my way to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home, as if they were my own! Even though my job comes with an unusual and ever-changing schedule, pet care is always a top priority in my life. I make it a point to plan around the pets I care for—ensuring they get all the love, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s making time for a walk, a cuddle session, or just being there when they need company, I’m fully committed to giving every pet in my care the same love and attention I give my own. Flexibility is part of my lifestyle, and it allows me to show up for your pets when you need me most! I care for my own dog with daily walks, lots of playtime, and all the cuddles he could ever want—he’s truly part of the family! That same level of love and attention is what I bring to every pet I care for. And while my dog is friendly and well-socialized, I completely understand that every pet has different comfort levels. If your pet needs space or a more private experience, I can easily keep them separated to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home!

“Claire has been wonderful helping out our dog Mabel with walks while we’re at work! She’s very communicative, works with our schedule, and our dog loves her!”
