Local know-how pays off in Seattle
October through May brings 150+ rain days. Seattle sitters carry towels, work around indoor enrichment, and use the covered I-5 Colonnade off-leash for rainy-day energy burn.
When demand peaks
Demand is steady year-round with summer hiking-sitter spikes (June to September) and a smaller Christmas/New Year peak. Daily mid-day walks dominate booking volume thanks to the city's DINKWAD (dual income, no kids, with a dog) demographic.
