At We Let the Dogs Out, we do more than just walk dogs and scoop litter boxes- we build trusted relationships, nurture happy pets, and support the busy lives of their families. We believe that exceptional pet care begins with heart – and thrives through professionalism, consistency, and connection.
What started in 2015 with a leash and a big dream has grown into a trusted, award-winning pet care company with a team of highly trained, insured, and passionate professionals who care for pets as if they were their own. Owner, Rachel Eaton, a lifelong animal lover and dedicated entrepreneur, built WLTDO on a simple belief: that every pet deserves compassionate, reliable care, and every pet parent deserves peace of mind.
From daily dog walks to cat care, vacation visits, adventure hikes, puppy programs, and pet taxi services, our mission is simple: to provide reliable, compassionate, and joyful care every single day.
Our team takes pride in combining a genuine love for animals with a high level of professionalism, training, and communication – qualities that make us a trusted partner in your pet’s life and a proud member of our shoreline community.

The most reliable out there! I never worry about my pets when we have to leave town. They’re dependable, kind, and most importantly my dogs love them 🙂 Highly recommended.
Antonia S.
Such a wonderful and compassionate group. They take excellent care of my little ones. I could not ask for better dog sitters.
Michelle B.
I would absolutely recommend we let the dogs out without hesitation. Our dog Miniwheat was always anxious of strangers, but their team always seemed able to get her to warm up to them. They were accommodating when we needed help on short notice, and understanding when we needed to cancel on short notice.
Kelly S.
The folks at WLDO take wonderful care of our dogs during the week. They send detailed updates about their visits, and it’s clear that each staff member who visits loves what they do. The staff is also incredibly responsive and flexible when it comes to scheduling pet care, even on short notice. Thank you!
Josh D.
Love this service! For two working parents and many unknowns! I always know my two puppy dogs are safe! Love love the mobile app and customer service!
Sarah B.
Amazingly well run organization. Tailor sitters-walkers to dog needs. We have two large breeds that need leader and use of trained commands. They do an amazing job and my dogs [love them].
Bridget M.
We had Jessica for a meet and greet. Taylor was early at first but Jessica won her over. Very thorough in the intake visit. She sent us pictures for the actual dog walk and Taylor was SO happy. Will use regularly. Highly recommend
Artemisia C.
We are so happy to have found this resource. We are relatively new to the area and needed a sitter for our cat and dog. I appreciate the update they send me after each visit affirming what they did and how our pets were which offers great peace of mind while traveling. I would highly recommend We Let the Dogs Out!
