Dog Walking Tourist District

About: I’ve owned three dogs across nearly 10 years, including a Border Collie and a Poodle staying in China now. I have over five dog walking experiences back in China, sincerely love all pups and provide regular potty breaks plus daily photo updates for every boarding dog. I stay home most days in Kirkland with flexible free time. I’m fully available all weekends for boarding, and free most weekday afternoons, able to take dogs out for potty breaks every 2–4 hours regularly. I own a secure fenced backyard for dogs’ outdoor play. My two gentle spayed female dogs are staying in China now, I keep home pet-safe and send daily photo updates to owners for every boarding pup.

About: I absolutely love animals of all kinds and own a sweet 19-year-old cat named Jet. I've owned and lived with pets throughout my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, and birds many times throughout my life. I have experience administering medications and love to play with animals. I look forward to meeting your furry and feathered friends! I am a 37-year-old professional swing dance instructor, classical vocal coach, and piano teacher. I received my Bachelor's degree in Choral-Vocal Music Education from Bob Cole Conservatory of Music at CSULB. I studied Molecular Biology for 3 years before deciding to pursue teaching dance and music. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible to tend to pets' needs throughout the day. I have worked in a variety of settings, including restaurants, music halls, recording studios, summer camps, dance studios, tutoring, and babysitting. I enjoy classic movies, gardening, crossword puzzles, camping, and cooking. I rely on the client to set the ground rules for their own home and pets, and adhere to those guidelines. Every pet parent has a good feel for their pet’s needs and care, and I look forward to learning about each unique pet I get to care for.

“Barbara did a fantastic job walking our dig when we could not. She was on time, adapted to our complicated schedule and was very caring towards our dog. We would definitely recommend her.”

“Samantha started walking Benny last week. Her kind and calm demeanor and professionalism were obvious when she came for a meet and greet before her first walk. She is punctual, and Benny clearly loves her. More importantly, our cat gave her his instant approval! We are so happy to have her help as we acclimate to having a dog again, especially a puppy!”

About: Hey there! I have 10yrs of personal experience with caring for dogs; small, big, or any size in between! I currently have two rescues, a large (120lbs) black lab and a small (15lbs) chihuahua-spaniel mix! I have experience with dogs of all tempers, needs, and personalities including introverted, outgoing, and family friendly. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom in grad school, so my schedule is flexible for drop-ins & day sitting. Please note that there may be times where I may have my child with me. While she is familiar with pets and their boundaries, please let me know if your pet is adults only so that I can ensure my schedule aligns with your pets needs, and that I can care for them while my child isn’t with me. For outdoor & social dogs, I have a fenced, 200sqft backyard along with 2 dogs (large & small) who can play with your dog if they need some company! I have a wide range of toys and am located near many parks & walking trails. For indoor or introverted pets, half of my apartment is baby-fenced off for privacy & space as needed. I am more than happy to hang out inside with your pup & help with decompression time as needed!

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for years, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have 6+ years of hands on experience in dog daycare, boarding, walking, and training, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities, ages, and needs from playful puppies and high energy dogs to seniors and pups who need a little extra patience and structure. When your dog is in my care, my goal is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to follow their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, cuddles, and individualized care not just a quick check-in. I’m comfortable with feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, enrichment, and all the little details that help your dog feel at home. I also understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow your instructions and adapt to what works best for your pup. Your home is your dog’s safe place, and when you’re away, I want to keep it feeling just like that. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in experienced, caring hands. I’m currently available for drop-ins and dog walks during the following hours: 🐾 Tuesday–Thursday: 8:00 AM–3:00 PM 🐾 Saturday–Sunday: 6:00 AM–8:00 PM I’m flexible within these time windows and happy to work around your pup’s usual routine whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, a little exercise, mealtime, medication, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m here to help! I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll make sure your pup gets the care and attention they’re used to. 🐶💕 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, and playtime. I treat every client’s home with the same respect I would want for my own. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety before leaving. I also keep an eye out for anything unusual and will communicate with you if I notice a change in your pet’s behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. With 6+ years of professional dog care experience, including daycare, boarding, and training, I’m comfortable handling a wide variety of personalities and needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

About: I’ve raised my own Golden Retriever since he was 8 weeks old, so I have real daily experience caring for a dog through every stage of growth and routine. Through caring for him, I’ve become very familiar with feeding schedules, walks, exercise, playtime, grooming, and making sure a dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly love dogs and understand how important it is to treat them with patience, attention, and affection. I know that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I am home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can provide dogs with plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to take them out every 2–4 hours for walks or potty breaks, depending on their usual routine and needs. My neighborhood also has a nearby trail, which is perfect for walks and extra exercise. Since I am home most of the day, I can give dogs a safe, comfortable, and well-supervised environment. I am also available on weekends and holidays, which makes it easier to accommodate different schedules and last-minute care needs. I offer a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where dogs can feel safe and comfortable. My home is non-smoking, located in a quiet neighborhood, and everyone in my household is very friendly and welcoming to dogs. We do not currently have any other pets, which can be a great fit for dogs who do best in a peaceful environment. We also have a yard for outdoor time, and I always prioritize supervision, safety, and each dog’s comfort. My goal is to make every dog feel cared for, relaxed, and at home.

About: With a 14-year background in professional hospitality and the culinary arts, I bring a level of structure, care, and attention to detail that goes far beyond the average pet sitter. In high-pressure environments, I learned the importance of strict schedules, absolute reliability, and accommodating specific needs—skills that translate perfectly into caring for your four-legged family members. As someone who loves the outdoors and regularly goes camping with my own dog, Maple Bar, I am more than happy to give high-energy dogs the exercise and mental stimulation they crave. Whether it's managing the high-energy, frequent potty breaks of a young puppy or providing the gentle, patient pacing required for a sweet senior dog, I adapt my energy to match exactly what your pet needs to feel safe and happy. When your pup is with me, they aren’t just being watched—they are being hosted. You can count on clear, consistent communication, plenty of photo updates, and a safe, structured environment where your pet's routine is respected down to the minute. If you are needing a house sitter for your pets my 4 year old daughter will have to stay at the home with me and we will have to leave the home to go walk our dog 2-3 times a day. Thank you for understanding and helping a mom out! Cheers! During the Summer I try to stay busy but during the School Year I am a stay at home mom. I am available most weekends and weekdays 1230-2PM and 530PM-8PM. I cannot house pets in my home, but I am happy to walk them around a nice trail, throw the ball at the dog park, or if they may need medication. When your pup is with me, they aren’t just being watched—they are being hosted. You can count on clear, consistent communication, plenty of photo updates, and a safe, structured environment where your pet's routine is respected down to the minute.

“I’m so grateful for Colin! I needed a last-minute walker after coming down with a stomach bug, and he was an absolute lifesaver. He was flexible, responsive, and super friendly, keeping me updated throughout the walk. This was my first time using Rover, and Colin even helped walk me through the final steps of setting up my account—so kind and patient! Highly recommend him.”

Rachel B.

“Last week was the first time I used Edie for my new puppy Chester. He is quite the handful and she has done wonders with him. She’s been very flexible and genuinely enjoy to work with. Hopefully Chester will get used to her as I will be using her weekly for his walks.”

Diane H.

“As always, Maren took such amazing care of my pup Kathleen on her walks. Her experience with reactive dogs sets Kathleen up for success. Couldn’t recommend her more. Thanks so much Maren!”

Felicia R.

“Beverly and Sterling are knowledgeable, patient, and dependable. I have two rescue dogs I feel very protective of, they were very supportive and helpful getting both owner and dogs comfortable. They clearly have a passion for dogs, that matters to me. And my dogs love them!”

About: Hi! I’m Sarah. I have a 4-year-old miniature dachshund, and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. Over the past 8 years, I’ve gained extensive experience dog walking, house sitting, and caring for pets for many different families. My boyfriend and I, along with our dog Penny, often house sit together, which allows us to provide attentive, flexible care for your home and pets around our work schedules. I truly love animals and can’t imagine life without them! I work full-time as a Special Education Teacher, but I’m looking to spend my weekends doing something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. When I’m with your pet, they will have my full attention, plenty of affection, and the care they deserve.
