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 highly recommend her and look forward to booking her services again.”

About: Hey there! My name is Ryan. Originally from New England, I'm proud to call Seattle my home for the past 7 years. I live here with my partner and 2 dogs, Chonky and Chilli. Chonky, originally rescued in Atlanta, has been with me for 11 years. I'm unsure of his age since he was street rat before me but I call him 12-13 to anyone who asks. We've lived in 3 different states and traveled cross country together - he's quite literally my road dog. He unlocks a new allergy with every state we visit and is usually the reason we're visiting the vet. Chilli, who was rescued 3 years ago by my partner and I, just turned 10 in April. We like to say she found us since we initially applied for a different dog, different breed and somehow ended up with a Frenchie with separation anxiety. We wouldn't have it any other way, however, as Chilli is the undisputed Queen around here. I am currently unemployed, having quit my job at the end of May to travel back East to visit with sick and elderly loved ones for an extended amount of time. Now that I've returned to Seattle, I'm ready to begin accepting clients! With no other commitments, I will be able to devote all my time to caring for your pet. Prior to caring for pets all on my own, I grew up with both dogs and cats and have extensive experience caring for both. Additionally, I was allergic to dogs in my early youth and have also cared for: rodents, birds, fish, lizards, crustaceans, and amphibians. The mental and physical health issues of my own two current pets equipped with experience administering medication, pre/post operation care, and a minor amount of behavioral correction training. I will be keeping my rates low and competitive initially to establish a client base. My professional background is in team management and customer satisfaction. Being a pet owner, I understand and empathize with the struggle of finding someone to watch your pets. Even here on Rover, I've had good experiences and poor experiences depending on the sitter. What sets me apart from most is experience caring for dogs! I find most sitters on this platform are looking to make a few extra bucks while they work from home - I would like to engage with your pet more than a computer screen. We'll play, walk, run errands together (size permitting). My goal is to keep your dog happy and you free of stress.

“Kimberly was awesome with our 12 week old puppy! She even accomodated an early drop off for us which was great. She was very communicative and sent many pics through the day! Will use her again!”


“Callie took wonderful care of Salem! He had a great time and was a tired and happy dog when we picked him up. She was consistent in sending pics throughout the day and giving updates.”


About: Having owned a dog for 5 years now, I have learnt a lot about how to take care of dogs. What sets me apart is my desire to ensure the dog is happy and comfortable. Being away from their natural environment can be very stressful and this is where I hope to make our place they look forward to coming. I am currently trying to figure out what I want to do in my life next so have a pretty flexible schedule on weekdays and weekends. I prefer a meet and greet prior to any booking so the dog doesn't associate our place as one where their family will leave them. By playing in our yard, they can sense our place as a fun environment from the beginning.
