About Eastlake

Dog walking in Eastlake, what it actually looks like

Eastlake is the narrow lakeside neighborhood on the east shore of Lake Union, between Capitol Hill and the University District. Houseboats along the water, low-rise apartments and bungalows up the hill, and direct access to the Cheshiahud Lake Union Loop. Quieter than SLU across the lake.

Eastlake sitters skew young-professional with stable schedules. The breed mix favors active medium breeds: Labradors, Goldendoodles, Border Collies, plus a strong rescue contingent. The waterfront-loop running culture means many sitters are runners themselves and factor 2-or-3-mile lake-loop sessions into long walks.

Where dog walkers work in Eastlake
