“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!

“we had a great experience with eric! He watched our two pups for daycare and was incredibly communicative throughout the day—sending lots of photo updates and checking in often. One of my dogs is usually very fearful of new people, but he was patient and kind, and she warmed up to him quickly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend eric !”


“Ling watched my dog Murphy with little notice and sent me plenty of photos and updates! I highly recommend her. She was very sweet and made the process seamless.”


“Doggy day care is a great option, Pengfei and Sijie are very kind and took good care of Chiquis she enjoyed her time and was pampered and came home happy...thank you guys...you are awesome!.”


“Cinthia was so easy to deal with. My lil one seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed her time with Cinthia and her dogs. She came back tired and happy. Cinthia followed all the instructions I shared. My pup seemed to have had a couple of accidents while being excited playing but she didn't make a big deal out of it at all. She communicated well and I felt like my pup was in safe hands all through out. Thank you for the wonderful experience Cinthia.”

“Lauren provides outstanding care for my dog, Phoebe, during daycare. I love receiving regular updates and photos, which gives me great peace of mind while I'm at work. When I pick Phoebe up, she’s always happy and relaxed, and now she gets excited when we arrive for drop-off. I rely on Lauren’s daycare services weekly and will definitely be booking Phoebe for overnight boarding when I go away. Highly recommend – 5 stars!”


“Jack got a couple long walks and lots of fun playing at home. He came home happy and ready to rest, and I got some fun photos throughout the day! Anastasia is great!”


About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. Pet care comes natural to me and I have loads of personal experience with regular vet visits, giving medication, and keeping pets safe, happy and well cared for. I have two friendly and sweet cats that are friendly to dogs but generally avoid them. They spend most of their time on my balcony watching birds or up high hanging out on one of their cat trees. I love cats and dogs equally I never felt like a one or the other person. I make sure to play with each of them daily and give them individual attention so they know they’re loved and cared for. I raised a Mini Goldendoodle named Matcha with my roommate from a puppy to an adult lovingly. We attended puppy classes at paws 4 training, like most people in the Freemont / Wallingford area. Sadly she moved out recently. I’m looking to share my experience and care with some new doggos. I am in the habit of daily park trips with my dog, to woodland park or for long walks around greenlake. I like to do potty walks every 3-4 hours. I’m happy to do so more often whenever needed. I prefer to sit one dog at a time or two if they are from the same owner so we can make the most of our time together. As a lifetime cat owner I am happy to trim nails if requested, comb daily, spoil, and play with them lots. Vet visits if requested. I’m very close to Northwest vets in on stone way and the greenlake animal hospital. I’ve got all the necessary cat and dog supplies, gates if needed, a large soft crate if needed, a smaller metal crate, leashes, fancy jackets, a couple fun things for holiday photos. :) I’m happy to do a meet and greet to see if we are a good fit at my apartment or at the park. I’m happy to do house sitting as well, sometimes I’ll get bored and clean I always leave a place as clean but more likely cleaner than I found. Right now, I have a very flexible schedule. I generally work from home and Rover is a full time gig for me. I always try to only watch one dog at a time however if there is a day or two overlap I will check with both owners before accepting. I have an unfenced yard /shared dog area and lovely kind neighbors who also have pets. I take my dogs to woodland park to the grass to play fetch, the dog park or we go on long walks around the neighborhood. There’s a nice trail on the next block for doggies who need privacy when pooping. We like to take leisurely sniff walks or potty walks around Wallingford and Fremont (wallymont). I can’t help but take pictures regularly so I will keep you up to date. I have a spacious apartment for rainy days we can play ball down the long hallways or tug in the wide living room. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds. And everything is cleaned regularly including doggie beds and blankets. If you want to provide that for them for their comfort that is always welcome.

“Patrizio and Carlos are so kind and attentive. Bardo feels so comfortable with them. I can tell this because he is calm and happy when we arrive home. We are so grateful they watch our little baby monster!!”


“Jun was awesome! He was very accommodating to my schedule (early drop off), had great communication, and sent super cute pics for updates! He did a great job taking care of my Winston and I am already booking with him again! Highly recommend! Thank you Jun!”


“AJ and Charlie (a 1.5yr old great pyraness/lab) met before we started daycare to check vives. This gave the opportunity to show trucks and get to know one another! This was helpful bc I knew better that I could trust him. AJ sent regular updates with pictures (some of them showing charlie being pretty silly lol), walked Charlie to my specifications, was timely and organized, and made sure charlie got enough water, exerts, and love! AJ is an excellent dog sitter and I’d recommend him to anyone! :)”


About: Our animal CPR and First Aid certified staff expertly manage playgroups by size, temperament, and play style. Our commitment as a Fear Free Certified facility means we've designed every aspect of our care, from interactions to our physical space, to take dog behavior into account and minimize stress. Our highly comprehensive vaccination requirements ensure we minimize risk of exposure. Combined with regular safety checks, we ensure dogs are not exposed to hazards, even when they try to!

About: My experience with animals started early — I was raised on an organic farm where I helped care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, sheep, and even pigs. Over the years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for everything from puppies and high-energy dogs to elderly pets and nervous rescues. I’ve also house-sat for horses, cared for beta fish and lizards, and currently live with two cats of my own. This range of experience has made me patient, observant, and comfortable handling animals with different needs and personalities. What sets me apart is my ability to create a calm, trusting environment where animals feel safe. Whether I’m giving a shy senior dog space to warm up or keeping a playful pup mentally stimulated, I adjust my care to match your pet’s personality and routine. I’m also great with plants and am happy to water your garden or houseplants while you're away. I'm especially: Confident with farm animals and mixed-pet households Familiar with giving medications and special diets Comfortable with crate training and puppy routines Reliable for senior pet care, including gentle walks and extra patience Every pet is different, and I love getting to know what makes yours special. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer weekday, weekend, and some evening availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m also open to last-minute or short-notice bookings as long as we communicate clearly. For boarding and daycare, I’m typically home throughout the day, so your pet will get lots of attention, outdoor time, and companionship. Walks and playtime are part of my daily rhythm, and I always tailor the schedule to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel at ease. If you have specific timing needs — medication, feeding, or walks at set hours — I’m happy to accommodate that too! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In My Home: Your pet will stay in a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I live with two friendly adult cats and three other adults — all of us are animal lovers and respectful of visiting pets’ needs. I provide a quiet space for shy animals and can separate pets if needed. I also supervise all outdoor time and follow any crate training or house rules you prefer. In Your Home: When house sitting or doing drop-ins, I treat your space with the same care I’d want for my own. I follow feeding, walk, and medication schedules exactly as instructed and keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel confident while you’re away. I’m also happy to keep an eye on houseplants, mail, and home routines to keep everything running smoothly. I’m calm, observant, and always tuned into your pet’s body language and behavior — so if something feels off, you’ll be the first to know. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home — no matter where they are.


“Zachary was so great with our dog Stevie and was really accommodating to our abnormal work schedule. He was willing to come pick her up and drop her off so that I didn’t need to worry about pickup and drop off before and after a 12 hr shift. It gave me such peace of mind to know she was cared for during the day.”


About: I have had friends, family and strangers entrust me with the care of their furry family members. I have extensive experience with special needs animals and meds administration including subcutaneous fluids. I enjoy walking and hiking and would love to take your dog or cat along for some adventures if that provides positive stimulus for them. I can easily adjust to any special needs your pet may have. Making sure you feel at ease when leaving your furry family member behind is what is most important to me. I am happy to care for your pet in your home or mine. I have a large deck off my house which is an ideal spot to enjoy a little afternoon sun. If you prefer care in your home, I'm happy to maintain any routines which are most beneficial to you and your family.

“Seth has been amazing with our dog, Sage, who has anxiety and can be a bit nervous around new people. He took the time to build trust, and she now feels safe and looks forward to their walks together. Seth's patience and peaceful energy has made such a difference in helping Sage feel more at ease during their time together and his updates always reassure me that Sage is in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend Seth for taking care of your pets!”

Amanda H.Star Sitter
“I highly recommend Amanda as a pet caregiver. She is intuitive, patient, and deeply attuned to animal needs. Amanda connects effortlessly with pets, regardless of temperament, and keeps owners informed about their well-being. I’ve always appreciated her communication skills. She expertly cared for my cat on and off for the last 15 years. In his later stage of life, he had medical challenges she helped me navigate. As for my new kitten, they bonded immediately and I think he likes her more than me sometimes. He even let her trim his nails! Her dedication to her pets shows her intuition about animals' needs. Her cats are some of the most chill cats I’ve ever met. They get along with dogs so well. Her last dog was a nervous puppy in the beginning. I saw Amanda give her dog so much confidence over the years. That dog became one of the best-behaved dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. Amanda treats all pets like family and provides exceptional care. You won’t find anyone more capable and trustworthy.”

Margaux H.
“Out of the many dog sitters I've had, Margaux shines at the top of my list. She took fantastic care of Pilot! Although I didn't meet her through Rover, I wanted to take the time to make sure everyone knows what a wonderful dog sitter she is. She was very good about asking if my dog had any medical conditions or allergies, how often to walk him, and how often he was fed. She also kept me regularly updated with photos throughout the time she cared for him, and he was so happy when I got him back. If you need to leave your pup for any amount of time or even for a check-in or walk, I can't think of anyone better than Margaux.”
