We are located in West Seattle and we service the greater Seattle area including Bellevue, Mercer Island, and Kirkland.

A meet and greet is our initial consultation which allows us to get to know each other and ensure we’re a great fit for your pets. Price is $60 for a one hour meeting and will be reimbursed if three or more services are booked.
The Time to Pet app is a user friendly, industry software which allows our clients to quickly request new services, check their scheduled visits, update their pet information, view and send messages to our team, and make payments.

Rover and Wag are gig-economy marketplaces that connect pet owners with independent contractors, while Reining Cats and Dogs is a local, established Seattle business with a small, vetted team. Every team member is certified and covered by our company's licensing, bonding, and insurance — not by a personal policy a contractor may or may not carry. You'll meet your dedicated sitter at an initial meeting before any visits begin, get photo and video updates with GPS-tracked walks through the Time to Pet app, and have a direct line to Kirsten, the owner, for anything you need. We also routinely care for pets that gig platforms turn away — anxious dogs, pets on medication, and senior animals needing extra patience.
