Dog Walking in Windermere, Seattle, WA

“Jacob was great with my dog Mo, responds quickly to messages and was able to help me out when I needed a dog walker last-minute. Would recommend.”

About: After 30+ years as a nurse, caregiving is simply part of who I am. I bring the same patience, attention to detail, and calm demeanor to pet sitting that I've practiced throughout my career. I'm comfortable following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and staying observant of any changes in behavior or appetite. Over the past year of dog sitting, I've cared for pups of all ages and personalities—including anxious dogs who need extra reassurance and seniors who thrive with a gentle, steady routine. I treat every pet like family. I'm currently visiting family for a few months and have a completely flexible schedule. I'm home most of the day and can easily work around your pet's routine—early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening company. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day. I focus on keeping your dog comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible—same feeding times, favorite walks, and familiar habits. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I'm happy to follow any specific care instructions you provide. I send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well looked after.

About: I've had dogs since I was 12 years old growing up. I also have my own 3-year-old dog Karma who I got at 8 weeks old. I have spent time volunteering at the human society as well and use to all shapes, sizes and breeds. Have experience giving medications to my dogs. I have a fence yard close to trails for walking as well. I work remotely from home 5 days a week Monday through Friday. I walk my dog multiple times a day and take her to the dog park and other daycare and play park frequently. My dog karma gets along great with all dogs and would love a play buddies. Dogs are allowed to be on the furniture and can go play in the fully fenced yard. I would adopt and respect any client guidelines.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I’m a proud cat dad of two, and my household has cared for up to five cats at a time, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also owned three dogs, giving me experience with both small and large pets and the attention they require. I truly enjoy spending time playing with animals and making sure they stay healthy, happy, and comfortable. I’m slightly introverted, which means I’m patient, attentive, and calm—qualities that help pets feel safe and relaxed. As a current culinary arts student at SSC, I’m dedicated, responsible, and detail-oriented, and I bring that same care into pet sitting. I aim to give every pet a fun, stress-free experience so it feels like their own little vacation while their owners are away. I take pride in providing a warm, trustworthy presence and making sure pets are always safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently a culinary arts student at SSC with in-person classes Monday through Thursday from 8am–2pm and online classes on Fridays. This schedule gives me plenty of flexibility and makes me a great fit for house sitting and consistent pet care. Outside of class hours, my time is fully available for feeding, playtime, walks, check-ins, and giving pets the attention they need. As a cat dad and longtime animal owner, caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. I enjoy spending time with pets, keeping their routines consistent, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. As a longtime animal owner and cat dad, I’m very familiar with maintaining a calm, pet-friendly environment and respecting each animal’s routine and boundaries. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, and receive the attention they need to stay happy and healthy. I’m attentive and patient, which helps me notice changes in behavior and respond quickly to keep pets safe and comfortable. I also enjoy interacting and playing with pets so they feel relaxed and engaged rather than stressed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and aim to provide a warm, trustworthy presence. My goal is to make pets feel secure and cared for—like they’re on their own little vacation—while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in safe, loving hands.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets all my life, growing up around cats and dogs. I absolutely love them, and all pets are always at ease around me. Duda (my dog) is super calm and friendly! I do all her grooming and nail trims, and love taking care of her. I have experience with dogs of all ages, can give medicines and stick to feeding and walking routines. I also have experience taking care of cats, I had one of my own for 10 years, and took care of others too! I know how hard it feels to be far from your best friends, so I make sure to send pictures and videos often, so you know they are being taken care of and having a lot of fun! I’m a stay at home pet sitter, and currently study at home, so I have plenty of time to take care of the little ones. My husband works full time, so he’ll also take care and have fun with the pets out of work hours! We both love pets I don’t have a yard, so pets stay always indoors. I walk the dogs around laurelhurst area as well as magnuson park, that is just a short ride from home. I don’t use to have cage or separate spaces for dogs at night, but can accommodate for specific routines. I only take care of cats at their own homes, dogs can be both at mine or their homes. When going to a client’s place, I make sure that the pet is doing well, do all there is to do, including spend some quality time with them! I’ll always send notes for every visit and won’t do anything out of the instructed. Your home and loved one are always safe with me!

About: From dogs and cats to birds, horses, turtles, and more I am a lifelong animal lover and care taker! I have 14 years of experience carrying after pets for friends and neighbors as well as my own, with a wide range of ages and energy levels. My primary experience is with dogs and cats, though I’ve spent a lot of time working with animals on farms and my friends and neighbors have quite the range of critters 😆 I am the proud momma to Pabu (cattle dog/terrier), Basil (European Shorthair), and Max (painted turtle). The best parts of my day are my morning jog with Pabu. He has so much energy! My lunchtime cuddles with Basil. And sick dance battles with Max! Don’t be fooled, turtles can really break it down 😆 I’m extremely passionate about animals and would love to be a part of your little one’s day ❤️ Availability (I work from home) • Morning: 7:00–8:00 AM • Afternoon: 12:00–2:00 PM • Evening: 5:00–7:00 PM If you need a different time occasionally, message me — I’m happy to coordinate when I can. Meet & greets are always welcome! I offer drop-in visits and dog walks. You’ll receive at least two photos per visit—one at arrival and one at departure, with additional photos when possible. For your pet’s safety, walks are always on leash within your neighborhood, unless you request otherwise (such as a local dog park).

About: +Aside from giving TLC to our border collie, I've walked/fed/boarded my friends' dogs (corgis, golden doodles, Australian shepherds, mini aussies, chow chows, schnoodles)! +I default to positive reinforcement and have a lot of patience. I'm not one to yell at dogs and am very understanding. I am very calm under pressure but also quick-acting to resolve any issues. +I strive to be communicative and transparent as much as possible. I send photo updates throughout the day and at least 1 quick summary message on your pup's day. I always respond promptly via text or phone call during your pet's booking. +I am a medical student and a past high school teacher so I have extensive experience being a caregiver for hoomans. Daily routines include potty breaks at least 3 times daily. One long walk or outdoor activity at least once a day. On weekends, I try to take our dog on a easy trial, open field, or dog park depending on the weather. Prior Rover pups have accompanied us (with prior owner's permission of course!) to visit various off-leash parks, Whidbey Island, neighborhood trails, etc. Generally, we don't leave the pups at home alone longer than 3-4 hours. Either my partner and/or I are at home to keep them company. Especially during bookings, I am with them most of the day! I live with my significant other in a townhome right next to the park with lots of green space for your pup to enjoy! +Usually attach an Air Tag to their collar +Use home security cams if I am away from my apartment If I am house-sitting, I make sure to be respectful and keep the space clean. As a current medical student and prior teacher, I get regular and required criminal background checks (if that gives you some peace of mind!).

“Madysen was great with Coco! She came over to my parents’ house and walked her in the mornings while we were away. Super friendly and clearly great with animals! Would rebook!”

“My husband and our lab Sammie walk together every day. While he was away for 2 weeks Anatolii and Svetlana provided great walks which Sammie absolutely loved. She waited at the door for them to arrive, and when they returned she was happy and tired for the rest of the day. They loved Sammie as much as she loved them and sent us wonderful pictures. They are friendly, reliable, always on time. Would definitely recommend and will have them walk with Sammie again.”

About: I love animals! I'm the guy at the barbecue who's rolling around on the lawn with the host's dogs. In my life I've owned and cared for dogs big and small and cats bold and skittish. I have experience with senior pups and kitties. I also have extensive experience with tropical fish, I raised a pig for 4-H as a kid, I've even kept bees! I'm taking some time off from work to pursue some creative goals (I'm writing a novel!), so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Just ask and we can work something out. I have a fenced yard and my pups love to sunbathe there in summer and bark at delivery people all day. My house has enough space to feed your dog(s) separately, and if they require crating I have a comfortable room where they can relax.

About: I have taken care of pets (my own, my family and friends) for years, including managing all the dirty tasks and all the fun ones! I am currently a grad student with flexible hours and have time throughout the day to check in on pets. I have excellent time management and communication skills. I have a sweet aussie shepherd named Casio who loves cats and dogs alike. He has taught me so much about pet care and training. He can even dance and play dead!

“Leighton was a great dog care giver! She was very professional, communicative and super sweet with both my young and very old labs.”

“Thanks so much Matthew for stepping up to care of Bubbles. I appreciate your responsiveness and care with our dog.”

About: I’m a grad student with several years of professional dog walking experience and I've been around animals my whole life. I've become very comfortable dealing with dogs of all different sizes and temperaments. I love animals and want them to enjoy their time with me. I am covid conscious and still masking in public. I also love nature and taking dogs out to various nice outdoor spots is something I enjoy doing. I’m comfortable giving animals medication, as well. I can't wait to meet all the interesting personalities I'm sure to encounter, because all dogs are kinda weird. I love cats as well! I have wide open availability, as I currently work part time at a remote job and I can set my own hours. Late nights are also perfect for me as I’m a bit of a night owl. I mostly just try to make sure the pet is comfortable and not anxious. I will try to get a feel for their personality and if they want space, I will keep an eye on them but let them do their thing. If they seem like they want to play or hang out, I love animals and will be happy to keep them occupied. I also take Covid-19 very seriously, am fully vaccinated, and will be continuing to mask.

“Thank you Simon for being so sweet to Miss Dot. I can tell Miss Dot loves her walks!!”
