“Adam did a great job with Mondo. He was incredibly responsive, often times responding within a few minutes. Drop off was very easy as there was plenty of parking around. He sent us photo updates on their near 3.5 mile walk. Would definitely recommend him and plan to use him again to watch Mondo.”


About: Hi there! I’m a proud father of two and two lovable rescue dogs – both German Shepherd mixes, one of whom has taught me a lot about patience, training, and handling reactivity challenges. Whether your pup is a playful bundle of energy or a bit more cautious, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. With years of experience caring for dogs (and other animals from snakes to bees and everything in beween) of all shapes, sizes, and quirks, I bring both reliability and a love for animals to every walk, play session, or cozy stay. Your furry friend will get plenty of attention, exercise, and love – just like I’d want for my own dogs! Let’s make tails wag together! 🐶🐕 As a proud dog dad of two rescue pups, pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. From morning walks and feeding routines to playtime and quiet moments, caring for animals is something I prioritize and truly enjoy. My experience includes handling a reactive dog, which has taught me patience, structure, and the importance of consistency. Whether it’s fitting in evening check-ins, daily walks, or weekend adventures, I’m flexible and happy to tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I treat every pet as I do my own – with attention, care, and plenty of love.” Whether in my home or yours or walking your pup in the neighborhood or park, I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for your pets. At my home, I follow a structured routine with plenty of walks, playtime, and downtime to ensure pets feel secure and comfortable. Since I have two German Shepherd rescues (including one with reactivity challenges - don't worry, she's great with other dogs. It's people she struggles with), I’m experienced in managing different personalities, energy levels, and sensitivities. Safety, supervision, and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I respect your pet’s routine and environment. I’ll follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean up after them, and make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and attention. Whether that means a peaceful walk, playtime in the yard, or cozy companionship indoors, I adapt to your pet’s needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you know your furry friend is in great hands!

“Nick and Alison took great care of our little Icarus! They were great with communication.

Sunset Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nick and Alison were amazing! From the initial dropoff, they were so welcoming and helped my pup feel comfortable right away. They sent frequent photo and text updates, which gave me peace of mind! It was clear they genuinely cared for her and made her feel right at home! I felt confident she was safe, happy, and well loved the entire time. Would absolutely book with them again!

My pup has been well taken care of and Stuart has been invaluable as I have needed occasional dog care when I come to Seattle with my dog but didn’t want to leave her alone in a strange place and couldn’t always have her with me. Thank you Stuart for helping us make this trip to the big city work so well.
