Leah K. Pet Care Provider in Seattle, WA 98125

I have been taking care of cats and dogs for quite some time. I have done multiple overnight stays for family friends, neighbors, colleagues, etc. I also am a regular with drop by visits and even taking dogs out for a walk while their owners are at work. I love to take dogs for long walks or even on runs if they have the energy! If some dogs need longer walks (1+ hours), I will be happy to take them longer.

Throughout the day when I take care of pets (whether at my home or clients home), I send lots of photos to the owners to give them updates throughout the day, sometimes a little too much! I do work from home, therefore I am able to provide more one-on-one care. I will make it my priority to make sure they are safe, fed, have lots of cuddles, went to the bathroom, etc. On top of that, when I stay over at a client's home, it is important for myself to keep it cleaner than when I first walked into the home. I also respect house rules and other necessities that were discussed before giving care.

In terms of activity, one thing that is essentially important, is getting exercise daily. This includes going out for a walk, a run, or another form of exercise. For dogs, I ask each owner what they incorporate in their daily routine. This includes are they allowed to go to the park, can they engage with other dogs, go swimming, etc.

For activities that are inside, there are many things I like to do. For cats, I enjoy giving them many cuddles, brushing them, or just keeping them company. For dogs this is very similar. I like to play tug-a-war, hide and go seek (a new activity of mine), belly rubs, or play catch with their toys to name a few. Of course there are other activities to do inside, these are some of the activities that I have enjoyed while caring for client's pets.

Let me know as much information as possible that way I can give your pets the best care. Especially if I need to stay away from other dogs when going for walks in the neighborhood.
