Dog Walking In Wedgwood

About: I was born with an 8-year-old Great Dane, so I've been around dogs literally since I was born. I regularly volunteer at Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, working with puppies during puppy yoga and wrangling puppies during the monthly Puppy Prov, when puppies participate in an improv comedy show. I also walk some of my neighbor's dogs. I don't have a dog right now, but I still love dogs and pet them every chance I get. I'm in school on weekdays, but I am free most weekends except for the first Saturday of every month when I'm usually volunteering with puppies. When the school year ends, I will be available on weekdays and not weekends. I maintain attention and make sure the dog has a chance to sniff things along the way but not eat anything. I've dealt with energetic dogs in the past so I can divert a dog's attention if it wants to interact with another dog who doesn't want to. I can also work on training dogs to heel during our walks.

“Angela has been walking our dog Maggie 2-3 times per week for a few months and she is great! She’s on time and communicative in advanced with any changes to our weekly schedule. When we run into Angela in the neighborhood on our own walks, Maggie is so excited to see her!!!”

“Caralyn was great! She asked thoughtful questions about my pup during our meet and greet. She communicated before and after picking him up and taking him for a walk and sent pictures.”

“My snobby anti-stranger Basenji took to Darlayna in very short order. She really knows how dogs operate, and she totally gets my dog’s triggers and willful nature. I know my dog will get exercised and get plenty of houndly sniffs, and he will be SAFE.”

“Deb was great. Before we left on a trip she coordinated with us to meet our dog Chewy and see the house. While we were gone, she sent us pictures and was very quick to respond whenever we sent a text. I would absolutely recommend her to other folks looking for a caring person to look after your pup!”

“Sam is a reliable walker and our dog loves her!!!❤️”

“Sheena has been great and reliable! She walks both the dogs in the house and does them together something that can be a challenge for even me. Thank you Sheena!!”

“Lynn is so professional, and so fantastic with my dog, Lily. So happy to have found her and I intend on using her services consistently for the foreseeable future!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for most of my life and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My family had a Cavapoo named Midnight for 16 years, and I currently help care for Neo, a 12-year-old Chihuahua-terrier mix. I've also cared for many other dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is my experience with both puppies and senior dogs, my reliability, and my genuine love for animals. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether that means lots of playtime and exercise or a calmer routine with extra patience and attention. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. As an Animal Science student, I'm passionate about animal health and welfare and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am organized, reliable, and able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether a pet needs an active routine or a quieter environment, I am committed to providing consistent care and attention while their owner is away. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make it a priority to follow each pet's normal schedule as closely as possible and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as given, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any house rules. I respect the home by keeping it clean, secure, and leaving everything as I found it. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, making sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. During walks or outdoor time, I use proper leashing at all times and stay alert to surroundings to ensure safety. I understand that trust is very important when caring for someone’s pet and home, so I communicate clearly with updates, follow instructions carefully, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I have recently been volunteering at the Everett Animal Shelter, and am a foster parent to puppies, kittens and Adult dogs as needed if I can. I've been around all kinds of pets my whole life. I have worked at Dog Day 2 grooming and self wash in Everett, Burien Veterinary Hospital, and Mission Veterinary Clinic in Renton. I recently moved back to Burien and am looking to make some puppy friends, and a little income as well..I'm currently available as needed, and can provide your animal child/s with attention, walks, food, h20, play time, loves, and care as needed. A little about me, We recently had to say goodbye for now to our 16yr old Australian Shepherd, And it's been a sad time, but we know "Choco" is in a happy rainbow place. I look forward to meeting you, and your pets. Thanks for considering my help. Sincerely Julie

About: Hi! My name is Melani. I grew up with cats and dogs, so I swing both ways when it comes to furry friends. I love all dogs and breeds, big and small. I do have a special spot in my heart for rescue animals, as the loving owner of a rescue dog named Lola (she gives lots of love in return). My experience adopting, training, and caring for a rescue animal gives me insight into caring for your pet. I know the importance of keeping an eye on your pet's behavior and staying aware of triggers, so your pup can be safe and have fun. Safety is my #1 priority, and my #2 priority is fun. I love meeting other animals, and I'm excited to meet your pet!

“Meagan is great! She was very approachable, has a calm and gentle demeanor and uses positive reinforcement on dogs that are skittish like mine. She does meet and greet a priori to get your pups better, which is also very reassuring and follows requests adequately. We were very happy with her services!”

“Great dog walker highly recommended. She has been great with my high anxiety dog and really helped her get used to new people and new situations. My dog is incredibly happy to see her.”

Alex Q.

“Margaret did wonderfully with my nervous dog Kona! She pays close attention to detail and followed the care and access instructions to a T. She is very good about reading dog body language and understanding when a pet may be too hot, or too tired and goes off of the signals sent by the dog. She is super sweet and detail oriented and even takes great pictures of the pets under her care! Would absolutely book again!”

About: Saying I love animals doesn't even begin to describe it! I've had dogs my entire life, but have been dogsitting for friends, family and coworkers for the last 13 years. I’m a longtime volunteer at Seattle Animal Shelter as a dog walker and dog behavior team member, so I have experience with a wide variety of dogs and their quirks. I trained with a dog behaviorist to work with more challenging dogs in the shelter environment and use positive reinforcement training methods only, no exception. I was also a foster parent before adopting my sassy old lady, first fostering puppies (and getting really good at potty training!), before moving on to senior dogs who were struggling in the shelter. I've been vegan for a decade and know that animals are sentient beings with their own likes and dislikes, schedules they like to adhere to, and more — and I make sure to meet the pet where they're at. Specific Skills: Reactivity, Anxiety/Fear, Strong Pullers, Stranger Danger, Training Basics I work remotely on East Coast hours — my schedule has plenty of flexibility! I'm happy to accomodate based on your pet's needs and schedule. I would love to use my years of dog and cat handling experience to take your dog out to stretch its legs, hang out with your kitty and make sure their physical and emotional needs are fulfilled.

“Sami worked well with our two high-energy pups. She was willing to meet before the initial walk to introduce herself to the dogs and our living space. Would happily book again. Thanks Sami!”
