Dog Walking in West End, Tacoma

“OMG! wish i knew abt this sooner because Romy is so wonderful !!!! my babies really enjoyed their walk to the point where they cried when it was time to come in the house ! ROMY is so sweet even took them for a walk longer than 30 min ! wouldnt book with anyone else 10/10 def recommend !!!!!!!”

“Christy did a great job walking my 2 pups. They loved her and I appreciated that she was prompt, friendly, enthusiastic. Will book her again.”

“Kallie was so great and patient with our pups! They’re both pretty sure around new people and she took the time to get on their level and get them comfortable with her. She clearly cares about animals and it shows in her interactions. Thanks Kallie!!”

“I’ve seen Beth with pets of all shapes and sizes and attitudes and she’s amazing with them. She adopted a Rottweiler when he was a little under a year old. He had never been out of his kennel and had very little human interaction. She turned him into a sweet, civilized, well behaved dog. She has the patience and love and just has an incredible way with them, and they love her in return. I would totally trust Beth with any of my pets!”

“Elysia was so awesome ! Our pup can be a handful but she handled him with love and really came through on some last minutes walks :) Elysia has a true compassion for dogs and was very knowledgeable about ways to calm our dog and also have a great time on walks with him. He was a tired and happy puppy when he returned home . Thank you !!”

“Lydia has been a wonderful addition to my dog walking team. She’s responsive to messages, flexible with individual needs, and dependable with care. She sends quality pictures and updates so I know how the walks went and how my pups are doing during her care. If she has questions or concerns during her time with the dogs she addresses them promptly and respectfully. I can trust no issue or concern will go unnoticed or unreported. I appreciate having Lydia as a trusted member of my team and can count on my dogs being well cared for and loved on while I am away.”

“Amazing to my pup and communicative. Thank you!”

About: I grew up with animals but really started taking care of pets when I bought a house with a backyard. My family and I volunteer and foster animals through the Humane Society and have cared for all types. Some of those pets have needed bottle feeding, injections, oral medication, as well as medicated baths. I have taken all of the certifications for Fear Free Shelters and am excited to further my training. I work from home and am available for your pet any day and time. I have weekends free as well for your sweet pup(s). Do you need daily sitting? Overnight and/or vacation boarding? How about daily walks? Your pet is welcome to join my crew anytime. I have a fenced yard for dogs to explore with my two friendly pups or on their own if they prefer. Does your pup need a dry area? I have a fenced off patio for dogs with injuries or fancy hairdos needing to be kept dry, rainy days, or escape artists who love to dig under fences like the Pokie Little Puppy. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I have experience with fearful dogs, injured, quiet, loud, etc. Dogs are allowed to nap on furniture or in a crate with comfy blankets, whichever they prefer. I have a puppy playpen if your dog is small and needs their own space but still wants to be a part of the action.

“Very reliable, trustworthy, and takes great care of my golden retriever 👍🏼”

“Alison provided exceptional care for my pets while I was away on business, and I couldn't be more grateful for choosing her! In addition to my PBGV, dachshund mix, and two cats, Alison took special care of my senior dachshund, who is seventeen years old, blind, deaf, and requires a lot of attention due to his medications and routines. She went above and beyond to ensure his safety and comfort, while also taking the other two dogs on enjoyable walks. Alison's kindness and professionalism were evident throughout, and she thoughtfully sent me adorable pictures to ease my absence from my beloved animals during my three-day trip. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who prioritizes their pets' well-being!”

“Carrie is so incredible with my dog and cares for him as if he's her own! He loves when she arrives and gets so excited; he forgets about me! She's really good at obedience training while also showing the animals so much love and attention. Her sweet pup, Bruno, comes with her to my place because my dog and him get along SO well! They are best friends and I'm so glad he has a furry buddy to hang out and go on walks with while I'm away! 10 out of 10 and 100% recommend Carried to watch your pets next!”

“Sebastian is very professional and kind. He is easy to communicate with. Our dog is difficult to control on a leash but he handled her well over an hour long walk. Would highly recommend his services, and plan to book again! Thanks Sebastian!”

“Amazing communication. Very friendly and pleasant and easy to work with. Highly recommend!”

“Kayla is the best! She is reliable, trustworthy, and so nice. She has made a big difference in my dogs day, picking him up for a walk, letting him out, and throwing his ball. I can always tell he is so happy to see her from the pictures and I don’t have to worry about him being alone for my whole work day. Bonus- she takes the best photos of my dog when she walks him! Thank you Kayla ❤️”

“While our dog walker was on vacation, Alannah took great care of Lola for a week despite the rain and Lola's absolute hatred of it. We'd not hesitate to have her walk Lola again.”

“Anne was wonderful! She gave Harper a great walk and made sure he had plenty of water at the end of the walk before she left. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Alyssa is great! She communicates well, is punctual and seems to make great use of time with my Oakley. And based on the great pics she takes, it looks like he really likes her! I will definitely continue to use her walking services.”

“My husband had to go out of town on short notice, and Chris responded right away to our last minute scheduling requests, and made sure our pups were well taken care of. Much appreciated!”

“Angie is an exceptional dog caregiver, equipped with a profound understanding of canine behavior and training. Her extensive knowledge positions her as an ideal caretaker for dogs, especially those who require additional support while their owners are away. Angie's composed demeanor, coupled with her compassionate nature, makes her a reassuring presence for dogs in her care. She serves as a reliable guardian and advocate, ensuring that every dog feels secure and nurtured under her watch. I highly recommend Angie to anyone in need of a responsible, well-informed, and empathetic caregiver for their beloved furry companions. With Angie, you can rest assured that your dog is in the best hands possible, allowing you to enjoy peace of mind during your absence.”

About: Our family of 3 have had many years caring for dogs. Krystal works from home as an independent contractor, working a few hours each day. She always had a dog to help take care of when growing up. Brian works with the Tacoma Fire Dept and is home on the days that we are available. He has helped with foster dogs for years as a young adult. Both of us will be available to give your dog or cat our full attention! Our 13yo daughter spent the last 6 years helping to care for our own dog, Iden (in pictures). When she is home from school, she will help us make sure your pet is entertained. Sadly, our sweet Iden, who was a corgi/husky mix, passed away unexpectedly in Sept of 2023. While not ready to adopt another fur baby, we have lots of love to give yours, which we look forward to! We live in a 2 bedroom apartment. Our favorite pastime with our own dog was cuddling, so in continuing with that tradition, we allow dogs/cats on our furniture. We will not leave dogs alone in our house, which means potential car rides, walks, and adventures! Our yard is not fenced in, yet we have tons of places to walk nearby in North Tacoma. There is also a fenced in doggie play yard within our complex. Videos and photos will be sent regularly to ensure you know your pet is doing well. Please make sure to text us if you'd like more! We request dogs are fully potty trained. If needed, we have water/food bowls for use, which are always disinfected after each use. Please let us know the following, depending on daycare, drop-ins, or simply going on walks: * Walking behaviors while leashed (aggressiveness, pulls, reactivity, etc) * Let us know if your dog needs longer than 30-60min walks (fees apply) * Bring favorite toys * Bring treats & foods * Any allergies to be aware of * Medical conditions/medications * Vet contact information Our family looks forward to providing a loving, safe, and fun environment for your pup or kitty! Send us a message and we can chat about any specifics :) Krystal, Brian & Kalli 🐾 Krystal works from home as an independent contractor, working low hours every day. Brian works in the Tacoma Fire Dept, with his schedule, he will be off many days and available to help. We look forward to getting out of the house more and playing with your dog! We will provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pup. If staying for the day, we will spend it playing with favorite toys, and going out on walking adventures. We will be sure to discuss which areas we will take your dog for walks, and ask if there are any areas too far away.
