Hi, I’m Kim. I’m very excited to be part of the Wag team! Dogs have always played an important part of my life. Even during times when I didn’t personally own one, there was always a special dog or 2 that a friend would share with me. My experiences have been varied with dogs of all ages and sizes. Just like people, dogs have their own special personalities. I believe this makes for great fun to spend time with and get to know their unique behavior. Taking walks in Seattle neighborhoods is one of my most favorite things to do – especially when accompanied with a dog! I promise to take loving care of your dog so you will have a happy and healthy dog when you are home!

“Conscientious and thoughtful pet care :)”
I have been around animals my whole life. As a child I studied dog behavior and training which helped give me knowledge on the proper ways to handle and interact with them. I have an excellent understanding of how dogs work and I feel I and know well how to care for them in a variety of situations. I have cared for many dogs both of my own and of others'.

I have been a dog lover all my life and am always excited to make a new dog friend. I grew up learning how to properly walk and clean up after my family's German Shepherd/Golden Retriever dog Sam and have volunteered at the Benton Franklin Humane Society where I handled and socialized a variety of different kinds of dogs. I look forward to getting to know your dog and bringing joy to their day.

I am 64 years old and love dogs. My wife and I had six sons and they loved our dogs that we had as our family grew up together. Buster was our Golden and Lucky was our Jack Russell. Those dogs were members of our family and I went on many walks with them through the years. I remember one important fact about dogs, they will always treat you like a King or Queen no matter how tough their day was. I love dogs because they have shown love to me.

Dog Boarding in Renton
Located only 11 miles southwest of downtown Seattle, Renton enjoys close proximity to a long list of dog-friendly attractions. This location also means that dogs in the area always have someone ready to lend a helping paw when they suffer abuse, abandonment, or neglect.
Emerald City Pet Rescue is just one of the excellent animal welfare groups that operate in the region. Based in Seattle, Emerald City Pet Rescue was founded in 2013 and is on a mission to rescue, nurture, and rehabilitate homeless and neglected animals. The pets it saves mostly come from high-kill shelters where they face euthanasia, with the end goal of finding loving forever homes for these pets in need.
Run by a passionate group of staff and volunteers, Emerald City Pet Rescue specialises in saving animals who have been in the shelters the longest and will die unless rescued. Its core value is “love can save lives”, and this organization is certainly worthy of recognition and support.
Forever Home Dog Rescue is another rescue group that works throughout the greater Seattle area. This non-profit organization receives dogs from owner surrenders and overcrowded shelters, with those dogs then placed in Forever Home Dog Rescue’s kennelling facility or in loving foster homes.
Each rescued dog has its behaviour and health assessed, and receives the medical care and attention it needs before being matched with the paw-fect owner. You’ll need to make an appointment if you want to meet one of the group’s adoptable dogs. You can also donate much-needed funds or become a volunteer.
