I wanted to find someone who had experience with older dogs and Colin was a good fit. His dogs Georgie-Girl and Gus are around my dog's age and so he really understands how to care for older dogs. When Bliz stays with Colin, he gets to go to work with him, and to Magnuson park, which is wonderful. He gets tons of attention and plenty of activity. I know when I'm away, Bliz is in great hands and will be safe and well cared for at Colin's.

From the owner: Why walk your dog, when he/she can have a Dog Park Adventure!…read more A few of our K-9 pals make a trip to Magnuson every weekday, around lunchtime.

Strut the Pup walked my yellow lab, Charlie, for over five years, and I have nothing but wonderful…read morethings to say about their one-on-one dog walking. Einat, the owner, is very responsive and clearly cares about both her customers and her employees--and it shows in the quality of their service. Charlie typically had the same walkers at the same time each week. They were all professional, caring, attentive, and TRUE dog lovers! I loved Strut the Pup's daily walk reports and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of while I was at work. On a few occasions when I was working from home, I watched as his regular walker arrived--Charlie would be waiting at the window and greeted them with full-body wags every time. When Charlie's hips started bothering him as he got older, the team helped me adjust his walks so he could continue enjoying his outdoor adventures. Sadly, Charlie has since passed, but I've saved many of the walk-report photos his walkers took (like this one), and they remain some of my favorite pictures of him. Thank you, Einat and team, for taking such wonderful care of Charlie.

My dogs walked with several team members over time, from puppy care daily walks to twice weekly walks as adults. The walkers have all been very kind and worked well with our dogs. I appreciate their updates and photos after each walk. It is very easy to schedule and to modify service as needed based on your schedule. They are responsive, professional, and truly care about their clients. I highly recommend strut the pup and will use this service again.

Mary has always been on time and very communicative - texting us when she's on her way to pick up Buttercup and also sending us pictures of Buttercup on her park adventures with her friends. Buttercup has also spent some time on overnights at Mary's home when we've gone out of town on trips and she has such a blast! Mary truly takes care of Buttercup as if she's her own pup.

In fact, Harpo is depressed for a couple of days when we come home from a trip after Willa has been with him. I think the feeling is mutual. You can tell Willa really loves the boys as well. She takes amazing care of them and our house. Harpo gets lots of walks and hours and hours of attention...he's a demanding little guy. Kevin is very picky about his humans...Willa was immediately accepted by him...and thats a big deal. If you need a very responsible pet lover who will treat your special four legged family members and your home just as they were her own...Willa is who you need. Just don't book her when we need her, please. Willa is amazing!!

We have one Italian Greyhound and one tabby cat, both are seniors requiring daily medications. It is so comforting to know that our fur-kids can stay in their home and endure far less stress than boarding or staying in an unfamiliar home. Reducing our pet's stress as well as knowing they are in competent and caring hands allows us to fully enjoy our vacations. Willa has a special way with animals...our dog is better behaved after she has spent time with him. Additionally, the house we return to is always in pristine condition--it's so wonderful to come home to a clean house and clean sheets after exhausting travel. We are so grateful to have found Willa.

From the very beginning, Tim and Keiko were incredibly responsive and professional. They took the time to meet with us in person beforehand to make sure it was a great fit and to fully understand what we needed to feel comfortable leaving our home and pets in their care. During our trip, Keiko took amazing care of our golden retriever and two cats, as well as our home. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures of our happy, relaxed pets, which gave us so much peace of mind while traveling. It was clear that Keiko genuinely loves animals. We came home to a spotless house and very happy animals. As if that wasn't enough, Keiko even left homemade dog treats in our freezer -- above-and-beyond! We couldn't recommend Fur Babies House and Petsitting more highly. If you're looking for reliable, communicative, and truly caring house and pet sitters, Keiko and Tim are the best. Five stars all the way!

We used Julie for a little over a year before sadly moving to a new area (the hardest part of the move was leaving Julie). Julie was ALWAYS communicative, responsible, accommodating, and affordable. Plus it is obvious how much our dogs, especially our first one who she took on dog park adventures since he was a puppy, love her SO much. We would sometimes come across her and her pack at the dog park on weekends and Odin would sprint across the dog park whenever he would spot her. She is great with rescues and is a huge pitbull advocate, something really important to us as both of our dogs are pit mix rescues. She is also a force free trainer/behaviorist, another huge plus for us. Her passion for dogs is unmatched. I wish EVERY dog owner could have a Julie in their lives. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

When Abbey, our lab, turned about 6 months we knew that her regular walks wouldn't be enough, so we…read moreset out to find a dog walker that could do dog park visits. Julie came to our home to meet our dog and she was really great. We had set up other meetings with walkers that do dog park visits, and none could seem to control the energy of our young lab. Julie set boundaries with Abbey and was very good about calming Abbey down. She really understands pet psychology. In addition, our dog was afraid of getting in and out of cars. We were worried that Julie wouldn't be able to get Abbey in to the car to take to the park. But Julie reassured us that she would work with Abbey to get her comfortable and now Abbey is much better about getting in our own car! We have now used Julie as our walker for almost a year. She has never missed an appointment with Abbey. Every time Julie takes Abbey out she sends us a text message of Abbey having a great time. She also leaves a note on what Abbey did. It is really nice to have our dog taken care of by someone who cares about our dog as much as we do. Unfortunately, we are moving. I wish we could take Julie with us! She is so great with our dog. If you are looking for someone who really cares for your pet and is dependable, you should contact Julie.
