“Ashley was amazing! She is definitely one of the best Rovers we have ever had! Very communicative, sent frequent updates/photos. Luna was taken excellent care of! Would book with her again. A+++”
“Lena was fantastic!! Her household is well-suited for a variety of dogs, she seemed to offer our dog lots of love and support as he was a little nervous in this new environment, but he warmed up quickly. We will continue to work with Lena on future boarding. We highly recommend her!”
“Dacya was wonderful with our five month old puppy. She was very warm and friendly, and frequently sent pictures of Coco and the other dog she was sitting. I would love to send Coco to her again for our next vacation.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better dog-sitting experience. This wonderful couple took care of our dog for over a week, and from the very beginning, it was clear that they genuinely love and understand animals. They kept us updated with regular photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, comfortable, well-exercised, and clearly received plenty of attention and affection throughout the stay. Highly recommend them.”
“Xiaomeng was fantastic in taking care of my old girl. I love the pictures and videos she would send to keep me updated. My dog got sick while Xiaomeng was watching her and she was kind in keeping me informed and taking care of her. I felt so bad she had to deal with that but Xiaomeng reassured me she was okay and we talked about the best course of action to help my dogs stomach issue. I really appreciate her attentiveness and communication.”
“We can’t say enough great things about Lisa! She has been our go-to dog sitter for a while now, and it’s clear every time we leave our pups that they are in the best hands. Lisa treats our dogs like her own—with the utmost care, attention, and love. What really sets her apart is how communicative she is. We receive daily updates (sometimes more!) with photos and sweet notes about how our dogs are doing, what adventures he’s been on, and how they are spending their day. It’s honestly the highlight of our day—we always look forward to seeing what they are up to, and let’s be honest, they always seem to be having a better vacation than we are! Lisa has truly earned our trust. We’re repeat customers for a reason: she consistently goes above and beyond. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a cozy nap, or playtime with friends, we know our dogs (frenchie and mini schnauzer) is not just being watched—they are being cared for and loved like family. Highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and communicative sitter. We can’t wait to see the next round of pictures and adventures she shares with us!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Romy! She took excellent care of Uni and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Romy was reliable, communicative, flexible and treated our dog like her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”
“Shon took great care of my pups. He sent pictures to us throughout the day. He has 2 friendly dogs Chiko and Sammy that my dogs played with. We definitely will reach out to Shon again next time. Highly recommend!”
“Isabella was so so great with our dog, Benji! She kept us updated on how he was each day and really went the extra mile with making sure Benji was comfortable. Really appreciate the great care and I wouldn’t think twice about leaving my dog with her again ! ❤️”
“Awesome couple with great communication while we were out of the country. We felt super confident our dog was in great hands. They were delightful and we will try to use just them going forward!!”
About: ⭐️ Get $20 off on your first booking with me! Use my code AISTEM74203. Hello! My name is Aistė (ice-tah) (she/her) and I am a small business owner and active dog walker in Capitol Hill. I'm a proud dog mom to Leila, a Blue Heeler/Jack Russel Terrier rescue.

I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals in various environments and feel deeply in tune to their needs. For house sitting, I would like to meet in person or virtually to discuss your pet's needs so all questions and concerns are addressed.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong cat lover with over 7 years of experience caring for all kinds of cats. I’m the proud cat mom of three—my oldest is 6 and a half, and one of them joined my family when he was just 1.5 months old! I had helped with cat rescue work with friends, cared for cats from playful kittens to gentle seniors, and have experience giving medication and providing basic medical care. Because I’ve spent time with many rescued kittens, I’m good at helping shy or nervous cats feel safe and loved. Whether your cat is sweet and cuddly or more independent, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾
“Ziyi was an amazing sitter for my cat. She is incredibly thoughtful and always sent prompt, detailed updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. My cat clearly loved her, and that says a lot. She also did a wonderful job taking care of my cat when she wasn’t feeling well—she was attentive, patient, and caring. I’m so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for cats with very different personalities, including shy and sensitive cats as well as high-energy and playful ones. Living with cats has taught me how important patience, observation, and understanding are for helping them feel safe and comfortable. Besides daily care, I’m also interested in learning about cat behavior and communication, which helps me better understand their needs and personalities.
“Yijun is amazing! She was so lovely sending photos and videos, taking special time to care for our cats. She came over prior to meet them and be prepared. I felt so comfortable having her watch our cats and never felt worried! Thank you so much Yijun, would definitely ask her again if we go on another trip!”
“It was my last minute drop in visit and Viktoriia helped me with this. She is very friendly, responsible and really likes animals. She was always online and I wasn’t worried, when I left my cat with her. Definitely will book her service again! Highly recommended Viktoriia, if you want to get the best care for your pet!”
“Took great care of my boy while i was on vacation! Heather kept me up to date and was able to accommodate 2x per day visits which helped me feel at ease when leaving my kitty for a while”
“Vicky is very responsible and caring, she took care of my cat while I was away. Really recommend her and will definitely rebook. Thank you so much for everything you have helped!!”
“Absolutely amazing! I received constant video and photo updates! Yuan was very communicative and went above and beyond! I came home to some very happy kitties, a clean litter box and a full water fountain! I was nervous about using Rover as this was my first time, but there are no nerves for me now. Thank you for taking wonderful care of my cats and playing with them! I am so so thankful. Happy Thanksgiving!”
“Alix took such great care of our kitties and our home. Received lots of photos and detailed updates every day. Will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Jane is extraordinarily patient with our two shy cats, and leaves the most thoughtful notes. This was the third time we’ve booked with her and will absolutely do so again!”
“I last minute decided to go camping, and I needed someone to check in on my kitten. Paola responded super quickly and was even available the next day to come and meet Donnie. Reliable, communicative, friendly- Paola thank you!”
“已经不记得这是第几次请 Lydia 照顾我们家小猫了 🐱每一次都特别放心，也能感受到她是真的很用心在照顾毛孩子。最高评价大概就是——我愿意为了 Lydia 一直住在 BRK 附近😂想狠狠好评，但又有点担心越来越多人发现 Lydia，导致我们以后约不上 lol…而且每次收到的猫咪照片都堪称经典😂强烈推荐！❤️ I’ve honestly lost count of how many times we’ve booked Lydia to take care of our cat 🐱Every single time, she goes above and beyond, and we always feel completely at ease knowing our cat is in such caring hands. My highest compliment is probably this: I’d be willing to keep living in the BRK area just so we can continue booking Lydia 😂I want to leave the best review possible, but I’m also a little worried that too many people will discover her and we’ll never be able to book her again lol…And the photos she takes of our cat are always iconic — every update feels like a professional photoshoot 📸Highly, highly recommend! ❤️”
“Anastasiia took great care of Lexi! She always sent cute photos and updated me on her mood and when she wasn’t feeling well during the beginning of my absence. Thank you!”
“James tried very hard on our shy kitty and sent the photos and notes. This was our first time leaving our cat, and even though she did not want to play, it was very comforting knowing she was doing ok. James communicated very well!”
“Mari was fantastic! Fed our 3 cats while we were away and scooped their litter. Was so nice not to come home to a smelly house! Appreciated the photos she took. Will definitely book her again! Thank you, Mari!!”
“Elissa took great care of my dog while I was out of town celebrating my birthday. She was punctual, responsible, and followed all of my instructions perfectly. She kept me updated during each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. I really appreciated how reliable and caring she was throughout the entire experience. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Elissa!”
“Hunter was so reassuring when she checked on our new puppy Willow while we were at work. Willow is 3.5 months old and too young to be left home in the crate for long periods of time. Hunter checked on willow, played with her outside, and even cleaned up after a small accident in her crate. We received pictures and a full report after her 30 minute stay with Willow. We will definitely be using Hunter again!”
About: I've been taking care with my cat Cookie for over 6 years and she is definitely my family member. I will take care of your kitty as Cookie. Everyone in Bellevue downtown area are welcome! I also have experience taking care my friends' cats (or even small dogs) as well!

“I truly appreciate Xinya’s care for my boy Obi. They sent me many photos, took care of feeding on time, and overall I can see he had a good time and a fun walk. Thank you!”
“I'm so glad that I met Mari and wish that I had met her years ago to take care of my gentle boy, Logan! Mari is a wonderful individual, the kind of person who makes you feel like your soulmate pup will be in caring hands. She was flexible with our meet and greet & also when the original date changed. Mari is a calm, kind, friendly person who cares about the well-being of your doggo. :) She doesn't take on more than 1 dog at a time, which means your pup will get the extra attention they may need. This is reassuring in case one dog isn't a fan of other dogs or plays rough. Logan is 12 years in age & has slowed down due to a previous leg injury. It was important for me to leave him in a safe, calm space with an attentive, kind person. Mari's home was truly the right place for him! During Logan's visit, Mari kept me updated on how he was doing and sent plenty of cute photos. I really appreciate Mari's kindness with Logan & taking good care of him. I know that he felt good being with her. Thank you, Mari!!”
“Stephanie was great! She accommodated me and my pup last minute and kept me updated all day with photos. Great communication. Her pups played very well with mine so that was just a cherry on top! Will definitely book with her again ?”
About: I only take one dog per boarding request as I want to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I make sure to match with the dog’s energy, depending on whether they want a walk, play, or just a steady presence. I provide updates with photos and videos so that you can see how your baby is actually doing. I’ll make sure to keep their tails wagging while their favorite human is away (and hopefully become their second favorite)! There is always at least one person in the house to take care of the pets, with the exception of a few hours if we go out together on evenings or weekends. As a gap-year student, I am personally available almost all day everyday to keep your dogs comfortable. As my dog and cat’s favorite human, I always made sure they are doing well and dedicated individual daily play time to both. I have a fenced background so the dogs can play outside as long as they want to. If I go to your house, I will also play with them in addition to feeding, taking them to potty, etc. I treat my pets as my babies, and will make sure your babies are also taken care of when you are not around.
“It was a great experience to have a day boarding for my Dog June with Christina. She was very responsive, updated us with pictures and videos and followed all her care instructions really well. June came back happy. I would highly recommend her!”
About: We are a couple who grew up with pets, and have spent years caring for our friends’ and families’ pets (rabbit, dog, tortoise, you name it). This isn’t just a side gig for us, we genuinely love animals and are working towards one day owning our own pup together (we currently have a sweet cat named Luna). In the meantime, we would love to provide a safe and comfy home for your pet when you are gone so you can travel relaxed knowing that they are in the best of hands. We live in an amazingly dog friendly area and would love to take your pup out for the best walks <3 As a couple, we both have hybrid work, with both of our schedules leaning heavily remote. This means that most of the time, we are both home and available to give your pup pets, attention, and walks. We also live in a great area for walking with lots of parks nearby and both love going for walks! We maintain a clean, calm, and cozy apartment that is pet friendly. We do currently have a sweet 4yr old cat, she has been around dogs and gets along with them, so as long as your pup is friendly with cats they should get along great! Your pet will be welcomed and cared for as one of our own. We respect your pet’s existing routines and will stick to them consistently for smoother transitions. You can also expect regular photos and updates throughout their stay.
“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! They took great care of Tuna, kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, and made sure she was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear they genuinely love dogs and paid attention to her needs and routine. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a great time. We really appreciated the excellent communication and the peace of mind they gave us while we were away. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Todd is awesome! He’s very detail oriented and listened to all of our tidbits about Ziggy before caring for him. He kept him active all day and spoiled him with the dog park, walks, and treats!”
“Im so happy whenever I know Dacya is watching Rose. So many fun pics of her swimming in this latest visit with her! I cannot thank her enough for her flexibility AND love of Rose!”
About: Medical Support: I am comfortable administering basic treatments and medication. If your pet has a minor health issue, I know how to provide the extra care and hygiene needed to help them recover. What you can expect: Regular photo and video updates. A calm, observant, and proactive caregiver. A genuine friend who will treat your pet with the same love I give my own. I’ve designed my life to be flexible enough to provide consistent, high-quality care. Because I work from home, I am able to offer pets a high level of companionship and supervision throughout the day. I believe that a stress-free environment starts with safety. Whether I am staying in your home or hosting your cat in mine, I follow a "Safety-First" protocol to ensure your pet is secure, healthy, and happy.
“Joyce was calm, caring, communicative, flexible, and made my pup feel like part of the family. I was provided updates and photos, and Dublin really welcomed my dog during his time. The space is clean and large and plenty of engagement and attention is given. I will be using Joyce's services again!”
“Jam and her crew of adorable pups accepted Zoey as one of their own for the day. We loved receiving the wonderful pics of their walk and snoozing time! Thank you Jam & Crew!”
About: Constant Companionship & Peace of Mind As a full-time remote professional (WFH), your pet will never feel lonely at my home. I am here 24/7 to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and, most importantly, all the cuddles they deserve. Unlike sitters who work out of the home, I can adapt my schedule entirely to your pet’s routine, ensuring they feel safe and settled. Expertise in Specialized Care What truly sets me apart is my experience with high-need pets. I personally raised one of my resident cats from just 2 weeks old—a journey that required immense patience, around-the-clock bottle feeding, and meticulous care. This experience has made me exceptionally attentive to subtle changes in a pet's mood or health, making me a great fit for puppies, seniors, or pets who need a little extra TLC. Lifelong Small Breed Lover Before becoming a cat mom to my two sweet residents, I grew up with a Teddy Dog and a Yorkshire Terrier. I understand the spirited personalities and specific safety needs of small breeds. Living in a cozy townhouse, I specialize in creating a calm, indoor sanctuary supplemented by quality morning and evening walks to keep them active and happy. A Natural Connection I’ve been called an "animal magnet" since I was a child. I believe in patient, positive reinforcement and respect each pet's unique boundaries. Your furry family member will be treated exactly like my own—with unconditional love and professional responsibility. Full-Time Care & Attention As a dedicated pet parent to two cats, my life already revolves around animal care. My WFH status allows me to offer constant supervision and a flexible schedule tailored to your pet's needs. Since I live in a townhouse without a yard, I prioritize quality outdoor time with dedicated morning and evening walks. During the work day, your pet will enjoy a calm, climate-controlled environment with me right by their side. Whether they need a quick play session between my meetings or a quiet spot to nap, I am here to ensure they are happy and comfortable 24/7. Every pet has a unique personality and set of needs. My first priority is to mirror the routine they are used to at home to minimize stress. Whether it’s a specific feeding time, a favorite toy, or a particular way they like to be scratched, I follow your instructions to the letter. When Staying in My Home (Boarding/Daycare): Constant Supervision: Since I work from home, your pet will be in the same room as me most of the day. They will have full access to a comfortable, climate-controlled environment. Safety & Integration: With two resident cats, I am an expert at slow, safe introductions. If your pet prefers their own space, my townhouse allows for easy separation to ensure everyone feels secure and relaxed. Active Outdoors: Since I don't have a yard, I prioritize quality time outside. We will go on at least two dedicated walks (morning and evening) and frequent quick potty breaks to keep them stimulated and happy. Cat-Specific Care: For cat guests, I provide meticulous litter box maintenance and plenty of interactive play with wand toys and feathers. When Visiting Your Home (Drop-ins/House Sitting): Home Security & Tidiness: I treat your home with the utmost respect. I ensure all doors are locked, mail is brought in if needed, and the space remains exactly as you left it. Quality One-on-One Time: I don’t just "fill the bowl." I spend the entire duration of the visit engaging with your pet, providing companionship, and making sure they feel loved while you're away. Detailed Updates: I am a big communicator! You can expect frequent photo and video updates of our adventures, so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing.
“Ketaki was wonderful with our 10-month-old Labradoodle, Emmy! She treated her like her own — keeping her active, well-fed, and on a consistent schedule — and sent frequent photo/video updates that gave me real peace of mind as a first-time dog mom. Emmy stayed with Ketaki and her dog Coco for a week and came home happy and relaxed. I would absolutely trust Ketaki again and highly recommend her to anyone — I can already tell Emmy is excited for her next stay!”
“As always, Mckenna and her mom Shirley took the best care of my old dog Chewie, and he's not easy! Thank you so much, Mckenna and Shirley! I'm always sure Chewie is happy and well taken care of when he's at your house.”
“Shadow always has such a fun time with Ya-Han and her family! She takes excellent care of him and gives detailed updates and notes about their activities, which I love ❤️”
About: Hi! My name is Eunjung, but my friends call me Cindy. I have extensive experience as both a dog owner and a foster family, and through fostering I’ve cared for dogs with many different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I really believe in meeting dogs where they are—respecting their temperament, paying attention to their cues, and adjusting care so they feel secure and at ease. I care for one guest dog at a time. I already have a calm, friendly dog at home (8yo golden retriever), and keeping visits one-on-one allows me to make sure introductions are thoughtful and that every dog feels comfortable, safe, and not overwhelmed. I’m calm, attentive, and communicative, and I’ll always share photos and updates so you know how your dog is doing. My goal is for your dog to feel relaxed, cared for, and at home while you’re away. During the week, my husband will be home to do a morning walk and a play-time in the yard. I return from work in the afternoon, and we take our afternoon/evening walk. Dogs can go into the yard anytime they want. They are also welcome to stay inside! I have a spacious fenced yard, the chillest & kindest golden retriever to keep dogs company (or stay out of the way if needed), and great toys and equipment for pets in the yard.
“Amrutha took excellent care of Nano! Nano is a shy dog with new people but she took the time to have an initial meet and greet with Nano at her home so Nano would be returning to a familiar location for daycare. Amrutha also sent many pictures of Nano throughout the day to keep me updated. Would highly recommend!”

“Absolutely wonderful with midnight! Needed a last minute walked and she stepped up and took such great care of her, she was very detailed and put me at ease while I was away!”
“Denys has been walking my two dogs for a while now, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is caring, responsible, and my dogs absolutely love him. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. He’s always punctual, communicates clearly, and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re well cared for and happy. He’s also very flexible, which we appreciate given our sometimes hectic work schedule. I would highly recommend Denys to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker.”
“My Aussie Freya can be very selective about which humans she likes so hiring someone to help take care of her while i’m gone is. little stressful. I found Hunter on here and thought she would be a good fit and I was right! Freya was snuggling up and asking for belly rubs from her within 5 minutes of meeting Hunter! She provided me daily updates along with pictures of their walks and I really appreciated seeing that some of the days they got in some good miles since Freya needs that energy release. I will definitely be reaching out to Hunter in the future 💜”
“Eugene took such great care of my pup. He is very attentive to the individual needs of my pup and took a lot of time to ensure he was acquainted with us both. Excellent care!”
About: I have 18 years of hands-on dog care experience, beginning with my family’s first dog, who I cared for throughout her life until she passed. I now share my home with two rescue dogs and have also fostered a shelter-rescued dog for 3 months who got adopted last year. Beyond my own pets, I have cared for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs and previously worked part-time for a pet services company as a professional pet sitter and dog walker. I am comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and communication style. My approach is never one-size-fits-all: I take time to get to know each pet, respect their signals and boundaries, and build trust at their pace. I also prioritize clear, reliable communication so owners feel informed and reassured while they are away. I am self-employed and work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I can structure my day around your dog’s usual feeding, potty, walking, play, and rest routine, and I do not leave pets alone for extended periods. I am especially well suited for dogs who benefit from companionship, consistent routines, extra potty breaks, or a calmer home presence during the day. I believe trust starts before the booking. I like to meet pets first, learn their routine, and understand what helps them feel comfortable, whether that means giving them space, using treats, playing, taking a slow walk, or simply sitting nearby until they are ready. I pay close attention to body language and never force interaction. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, house rules, comfort items, and any behavior notes. I also keep owners updated with messages, photos, and honest communication so they always know how their pet is doing.
“Our puppy girl had a great time with Dacya--she came home from the park well exercised and happy. Dacya is a great communicator and sent me lots of pics and videos and made me worry-free at work. Highly recommend Dacya and will definitely book her for future walks.”
“Victoria is a consummate professional whose sunny disposition and love of animals is transparent in everything she does. On walks, she always sends updates and never fails to take my pup on an adventure. My dog Dutch loves her and to me, that’s the highest praise. She’s awesome and I’m so glad that we found her!!!”
“Jenna was absolutely wonderful with Maya! She was always prompt, reliable, and incredibly thoughtful. Even though each walk was only 30 minutes, she shared such detailed updates that it genuinely felt like I was right there walking Maya alongside them. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing exactly how everything went. On top of that, Jenna is such a kind and genuinely caring person. It’s clear she loves what she does and treats every dog as if they were her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and she’ll absolutely be my go-to person in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly wonderful with pets!”
About: I've been around cats and dogs most of my life and have a deep love and affection for them. As well, I recently started volunteering at Seattle Humane. I'm currently doing this part time, so I'm pretty flexible on availability on weekdays between Monday-Thursday. Though, for drop-ins, my clearest availability is between 8am-2pm. But again, I’m flexible. I can do overnights between 5pm-9am. I try to bring a calm, kind demeanor to the environment to put the cat(s) at ease; I will scoop the litter box, feed them, and if they show interest, play with them, and if not, I give them their space!
About: We’re a dog-loving family who truly considers pets part of the home. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes, and we have a very well-loved miniature dachshund of our own. We understand the trust it takes to leave your pup in someone else’s care — especially when they’re family. My husband and I both help care for the dogs in our home, so your pet will always have attentive, responsible adults present. We work as a team to make sure each dog receives individualized care, attention, and supervision. We are a family-friendly home, and our toddler absolutely loves dogs and will likely want to be your pup’s new best friend. That said, all interactions are closely and intentionally supervised. We are very mindful about safety and never leave children and dogs unattended together. Creating a calm, secure environment is always our priority. Living with a dachshund means we understand breed-specific needs — including proper handling, back safety, and reading dog body language. Whether your dog is playful and social or more reserved, we adjust to their personality and comfort level. Your pup will be treated like one of our own — safe, loved, and well cared for. Caring for dogs is part of our daily rhythm. We follow consistent feeding schedules, regular potty breaks, and a thoughtful balance of play, structure, and rest. Welcoming a pup into our home feels seamless because we approach care intentionally — with attention, supervision, and respect. Your dog won’t be an afterthought here; they’ll be cared for in a calm, structured environment. My husband works from home most of the time so your pet would rarely be left home without one of us. Our pets are family. They do whatever we are doing! Lots of love and attention are given, depending on your dogs needs we can take trips to the park or just a walk around the neighborhood. Our dog prefers a ride in the bottom of our child’s stroller. As you can see we do whatever makes your dog happy - so long as they are safe.
“Allexis is the best dog walker I've ever had! She is so communicative, kind, caring and flexible. My dog has struggled with some big life changes and transitions we've been going through and Allexis has been patient and loving with her. I've seen a huge difference in my dog's demeanor since Allexis and I've so grateful!”
About: I treat your pets like my own family, blending 4+ years of Seattle pet-sitting experience with specialized care skills. Whether it’s administering medication, applying eye drops, or performing my signature ‘calming scalp massage’ to help with watery eye or anxiety, your pet’s health and comfort are my top priorities. From high-energy puppies to senior cats needing extra TLC, I provide a safe, loving, and professional environment. I live with my husband (profile pic 11) who often works from home and assists me with pet sitting, meaning your pet will benefit from the care and attention of two people. I have a highly flexible schedule. I am available throughout most of the week and during weekend afternoons and evenings. I can stick to your pet’s exact feeding or meds schedule and can tailor my visit length to your pet’s specific social needs, ensuring they never feel lonely while you’re away. Last-minute bookings are usually fine, just give me 24 hours’ notice if possible! I live next to Microsoft campus, where I take dogs on walks to every day. In my home, it’s a calm, pet-proofed space with zero hazards. If I’m coming to yours, I’m super careful about checking window screens and locks. I never force cats to socialize. Plus, I’ll send you plenty of photos so you know they’re happy and cozy staying with us!
“Heather is the best! Heather provided timely and comprehensive updates while caring for our pup! I would highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her in the future.”
About: I only take one dog per boarding request as I want to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I make sure to match with the dog’s energy, depending on whether they want a walk, play, or just a steady presence. I provide updates with photos and videos so that you can see how your baby is actually doing. I’ll make sure to keep their tails wagging while their favorite human is away (and hopefully become their second favorite)! There is always at least one person in the house to take care of the pets, with the exception of a few hours if we go out together on evenings or weekends. As a gap-year student, I am personally available almost all day everyday to keep your dogs comfortable. As my dog and cat’s favorite human, I always made sure they are doing well and dedicated individual daily play time to both. I have a fenced background so the dogs can play outside as long as they want to. If I go to your house, I will also play with them in addition to feeding, taking them to potty, etc. I treat my pets as my babies, and will make sure your babies are also taken care of when you are not around.

“Liz did a wonderful job with our dog Chunk! It was our first time leaving him with her and she made sure to send us frequent pictures and updates. Absolutely recommend if your pet loves all the attention because Liz will give it to them!”
“We can’t say enough great things about Lisa! She has been our go-to dog sitter for a while now, and it’s clear every time we leave our pups that they are in the best hands. Lisa treats our dogs like her own—with the utmost care, attention, and love. What really sets her apart is how communicative she is. We receive daily updates (sometimes more!) with photos and sweet notes about how our dogs are doing, what adventures he’s been on, and how they are spending their day. It’s honestly the highlight of our day—we always look forward to seeing what they are up to, and let’s be honest, they always seem to be having a better vacation than we are! Lisa has truly earned our trust. We’re repeat customers for a reason: she consistently goes above and beyond. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a cozy nap, or playtime with friends, we know our dogs (frenchie and mini schnauzer) is not just being watched—they are being cared for and loved like family. Highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and communicative sitter. We can’t wait to see the next round of pictures and adventures she shares with us!”
“Isabella was so so great with our dog, Benji! She kept us updated on how he was each day and really went the extra mile with making sure Benji was comfortable. Really appreciate the great care and I wouldn’t think twice about leaving my dog with her again ! ❤️”
“Awesome couple with great communication while we were out of the country. We felt super confident our dog was in great hands. They were delightful and we will try to use just them going forward!!”
About: ⭐️ Get $20 off on your first booking with me! Use my code AISTEM74203. Hello! My name is Aistė (ice-tah) (she/her) and I am a small business owner and active dog walker in Capitol Hill. I'm a proud dog mom to Leila, a Blue Heeler/Jack Russel Terrier rescue. Leila and I are “Rock Star” certified by Flying Colors Canine Academy, a professional dog training school based in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We enjoy exploring every neighborhood of Seattle by bike or foot and hiking trails on the weekends. I have taken care of various dogs, cats, and small animals of all abilities, special needs, shapes, and sizes for over 20 years. I enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality, training together (if needed), and going on fun adventures locally. I am currently accepting dogs, cats, and other animals for boarding and house sitting services. My schedule is flexible throughout the week as I work remotely part-time from home in Capitol Hill. I am now accepting new clients for boarding and house sitting. I live near Volunteer Park and would love to help your pet get their energy out with long walks at local parks and playtime at your home or in my fenced backyard. I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals in various environments and feel deeply in tune to their needs. For house sitting, I would like to meet in person or virtually to discuss your pet's needs so all questions and concerns are addressed.
“Peter and Serena were amazing. We had a family emergency and they were so quick to help. Great communication throughout and I loved the pictures they sent each day. What a wonderful couple - I highly recommend!”
“Kyle took excellent care of Beanie while I was traveling. He was highly responsive and is a good listener. He sent proactive updates throughout my trip, whether things were going smoothly or a small issue came up. I never had to wonder how Beanie was doing. Kyle has a kind demeanor and clearly cares about dogs. I'd book him again instantly. Five stars.”
“Sarah and Lamin take wonderful care of our dog who gets sad when he’s away from his family. Duke enjoys staying with their family. They send us updates and pictures and are very responsive. We have used their services multiple times.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Elan was absolutely amazing with Yoda while we were out of town for 6 days. She provided regular picture updates, and you could genuinely tell he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The last couple times we used traditional kennel boarding, Yoda came home very depressed and stressed. This experience was completely different. With Elan, it truly felt like he was staying with family. We came home to a happy dog, and that gave us so much peace of mind while traveling. We would absolutely trust her with Yoda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring and dependable.”
“2nd time boarding WallE with Jenny. WallE is very well taken care of! Thanks Jenny for very responsive, caring, and accommodating. Love the pictures of WallE every day!”
“My 5 year old lab Queso had a great time with Joyce and her family when he stayed last week. Joyce kept us updated with daily photos. She kept him active with regular walks and games of fetch. All in all, Queso had a great experience and as pet parents we are glad we chose Joyce for boarding”
“Always a pleasure working with David! This time our pup was not eating as much as normal, so David went out of his way to cook food especially for our dog. Our pup came back happy, healthy, and tired out from all the good exercises activities.”
“Amy is a pro with dogs! We were able to schedule a pre-visit meet and greet with my pup and Amy's pups, and Teddy took to her and her pups right away. Her backyard is secure and a great size. I really appreciate how smoothly drop-off and pick-up went. We loved Amy and will definitely book with her again whenever possible.”
“He was so kind and took wonderful care of my dog! Made sure everything was talked through before I left him overnight, I had no doubt my dog was going to be taken good care of.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
“This was our second time leaving Momo with Malvika & her family! Momo was anxious this time & they were so understanding and helpful with her. Once again, highly recommend Malvika!”
