General description
Quiet three bedroom, two bath single family home in West Seattle. There's a front porch and a back patio area. Spacious, open-concept living and kitchen area with fireplace. One of the bedrooms is a cozy TV room where the cats hang out. The couch in this room converts to a bed if needed.
Needs and Animals
- My pets
- Animals with specific needs
- A dog
- 2 cats
Pets include a cattle dog/lab mix and two cats. The cats need wet food around 2pm-5pm every day. There is an automatic feeder you can set if you won't be home. Two litter boxes need cleaning every day, and there is usually vomit to clean every day or two. One cat needs meds but they just mix with his food. Cats and dog have baby gates to separate them.
The dog is very friendly and LOVES fetch. She does get stressed in crowded situations or with kids, so please only walk her in our neighborhood, and cross the street when you see people, just to be safe. She is crate trained and can be left alone for up to 6 hours. We have a few neighbors that could possibly let her out if you're gone all day. I expect at least an hour of dedicated activity with the dog each day- although you can get that hour by sitting on the porch with a beer and playing fetch with her:). You also can spend some time inside working through her training or playing inside fetch if it is too cold out.

Practical life

- Bus stop
We have a fenced yard with walking trails behind house. Walk to a take-out window, a Pho restaurant, corner store, a small grocery co-op, and several parks. We're a little out of the way for walking to neighborhood amenities, but an e-bike is included for your use to get you up the hill to a bustling neighborhood center, or around the water to Alki beach (about 4 miles). Two blocks from a frequent bus line. Bus and E-bike get you downtown in 20 minutes. City and mountain bikes borrow as well!
Comfort and Luxury
Our house doesn't have much of a style; with a dog, it's hard to have nice things, but everything is perfectly functional and in good shape. We do have several bikes for use, maps and advice on hiking trails with backpacks, trekking poles, and camping equipment to borrow. We have good internet with Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, and a media computer.
Tourism and Leisure
- City
Seattle has tons of possibilities. I wouldn't miss Pike Place Market or taking a ferry, just for the experience. If you ski or snowboard, we have several options within 2-3 hours of town. At Christmas, we have "Christmas ships", which is a parade of ships all lit up with Christmas lights that stop at different beaches each night.
