“Rain/shine & day/night I’ll walk them anytime! <3”
Hey there! I am a pet owner myself; I have three dogs that I love. Junior a lap/pit mix, Missy a Staffy and Piper a German Shep./Boxer/pit mix. All high energy and well behaved. I have been around animals my whole life. Currently when I’m not walking dogs I can be found either working at Petco or for a school. I have experience with various breeds, age and temperament. I believe myself to be honest and trusting and treat each animal as if it were my own, respectfully and loving.

I am a fit, fun 46 year old mom with a lifetime of having the best pooches in my life. I have had large breeds as well as the short and swift breeds. I really enjoy the energy and personal bond I have with them. They fulfill me much more than I do them for sure! In the past I have volunteered walking pooches for local animal shelters as well as helping with cleaning duties. I am a firm believer that a well exercised pooch is a happy pooch!

Hi, my name is Mike. I grew up in the Seattle area. I've had, or been around, dogs my whole life. I love the outdoors! My current dog, Ripley, is a 7 yr. old retriever mix and she's awesome!!! I have experience with all sorts of dogs from small to large. I grew up watching and caring for our family dogs. My father was a field trial trainer so I think that's where I picked up my love and compassion for animals. I would love the opportunity to walk and care for your pet. Wag is an awesome way to meet new dogs get outside and stay active. Looking forward to meeting your pet!

Dog Boarding in Everett
The Animal Rescue Foundation of Everett (ARF) was created in 2005 to support the work of the Everett Animal Shelter, which is the largest and only open-admission shelter in Snohomish county. That means they never turn away an animal in need—which definitely deserves a round of ap-paws!
The ARF hosts a wide variety of community events to raise funds for animal rescue, shine a spotlight on adoptable animals, and create a sense of community among Everett dog lovers. From 5K fun runs to seasonal celebrations like their annual Santa Paws fundraiser, the ARF has something for everyone.
The ARF is also committed to educating the local community about resources that can help prevent animals being surrendered to the shelter. One such resource is the low-cost spay and neuter services the ARF helps provide. But they don’t stop there—the ARF also provides seminars on less obvious but highly impactful topics like how to ensure that dogs and babies coexist safely and peacefully.
Finally, the ARF’s Medical and Enrichment Fund gets life-saving help straight to the animals who need it most by providing funds for medical expenses that the shelter’s budget doesn’t cover. The fund has helped many dogs and cats who came to the shelter in rough shape heal and find their fur-ever homes.
Save-a-Mutt is another organization doing great work in Everett. Founded by two friends and self-described “crazy dog ladies,” the group’s original purpose was to raise money for local rescue groups. Save-a-Mutt held its first dog-washing fundraiser in 2008, and has since grown into an adoption organization in its own right. Today, the group transports dogs from high-kill shelters in California and sends them to loving homes. Save-a-Mutt also partners with Everett Animal Shelter and Old Dog Haven, a Lake Stevens rescue organization for abandoned senior dogs, to find homes for animals in their golden years.

You can also enter your dog in showcase competitions that award prizes for pups that are either very accomplished (Most Tricks in 45 Seconds), blessed with exceptional features (Longest Tail), or just in possession of very stylish owners (Best Dressed Dog).
