House Sitting in Aberdeen Gardens

“Carina was great! She came by the house to get to know my boys and go through the routine and schedule. She gave me updates during the visit and made me feel comfortable leaving my babies at home.”

About: My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm a dog trainer in the Grays Harbor area. I have been successfully working with owners to rehabilitate fearful and/or reactive dogs for almost a decade now. I have also been a competitive dog agility instructor for 7 years. My own dog is Oakley, a Miniature American Shepherd, and he helps me with fearful or reactive dog clients by being a neutral dog with great communication skills. Before becoming a dog trainer full time, I worked at a dog daycare in Mukilteo for 3 years. It was a great experience and gave me a lot of knowledge about dog behavior and handling large groups of dogs. I compete in seven different dog sports with my own dogs, but we love agility and flyball most. I am available whenever I'm not already teaching classes or at a competition. Scheduling is open as we just moved to the new area from Seattle. I am experienced with dogs who are difficult or nervous around strangers. I use scientifically backed, LIMA guided dog training to guide dogs through their feelings as gently as I am capable while accomplishing learning. In any case, I like to engage with dogs in a way that's most comfortable for them. Each dog is different! I am not comfortable taking unfamiliar dogs off leash outside of the home or yard for safety reasons, but I am happy to work on this skill with them if requested!

“Kendra was very positive and responsible and our anxious dog Bonnie was very calm when we returned, which showed she had been comfortable with Kendra. Kendra brought her charming young daughter with her to dog sit which limited how long and how often she could walk Bonnie.”

“Madeline did amazing with our giant puppy! She was very responsive and great to communicate with. Very professional and friendly. We trust her fully to take care of our baby and our home while we’re away. Excited to book with her again!”

About: My family or I have owned multiple dogs or cats of all sizes my entire life. I currently own a 10 year old boxer mix and 10 year old Great Pyrenees so I am comfortable with large and small dogs. I work a from home with a flexible schedule for my day job so I am able to house sit at any time or walk at nearly any time or day. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am typically only unavailable for an hour to 2 a day due to client calls. I am available outside of those couple of hours. I am available for house sitting, check ins, or dog walking. I am comfortable with caring for cats or dogs of all sizes. I have cared for puppies, kittens , and elderly dogs and cats.

“Great sitter! I have three big male pittie mixes that have some special needs (behavioral and medical) and she was great with them. Very safe and very thorough with her care.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was a child living on a farm- dogs, cats, horses, chickens, rabbits, fish, and even plants! I have a deep sense of care for animals and living things, and will nurture and attend to your loved ones’ needs while you are away. I have a one year old chocolate Lab named George who gets along great with other dogs and is polite and respectful with cats. He comes with me on overnight stays and walks, but can stay in my truck for drop-in visits if you prefer. I can take your dog on long walks or visit dog parks during the day and give them plenty of playtime and attention. Available for drop in feeding visits, walks, or overnight stays. I am available to drop by or stay overnight in client’s homes. I have a pickup with a canopy to transport your dogs to the dog park, and have access to a private beach. Comfortable with large breeds, leash training and working with behavioral issues. Let me know what your pets need and I will be happy to accommodate.

“Hannah took great care of our dog and our home. It snowed while we were gone and she even shoveled the snow without us asking her to do so! She really goes above and beyond expectations. We would love to have her dogsit for us again.”

About: I have experience with adult dogs and puppies. I will follow your instructions with absolute certainty and can assure you I will make sure they are loved and cared for as if they were my own. I am very responsible and if a home visit is needed, your home will be locked and secured the moment i leave and if the puppy or elder dogs make a mess i am happy and willing to clean it up to make your day easier when you return. If it is just walking services you are looking for, i will make sure we take a walk worth it to the dog or puppy so they get the proper exercise needed. I have a career where i get 3-4 days off at a time. I would love to help you ease some of the stress by taking care of your animals. It gives me a chance to enjoy them and help you as well. I will follow whatever instructions given to me and can be reached at all times a day if needed. I will also update you with photos or information if you ask. I can also assure you that i am very cautious about my surroundings and will do my best to make sure your pet is safe and cared for properly.

About: I grew up around dogs, cats, and even rodents! I volunteered at a farm animal sanctuary for a few years and during that time I learned a strong understanding of patience and consistency. So when I care for your pet, I’ll approach it with the same level of dedication and compassion that I brought to the sanctuary! I have experience with a variety of animals, including seniors and special needs! I'm currently working short, part-time hours, so I'm quite flexible! I'm especially available during weekdays to help care for your pets while you're away at work! I love to start things slow when I'm introduced to a pet, especially if I'm inside their own home and space! Introducing myself with patience and kindness is something I always go by; the pet's comfort and trust are everything!

“Joshua is by far the best pet sitter we’ve had. He offered to stop by before house-sitting and that helped our extremely apprehensive cat (who can be pretty spicy around new people). Judging by the many pictures and videos we received, they were both very comfortable and happy in his care ! My dog received the meds he needed and Josh went out of his way to buy peanut butter when our pup was being stubborn. Can’t wait to rebook with him, knowing our babies are in good hands ! Additionally, our apartment was left in great shape; very clean and even had clean bedsheets to come home to :)”

“Quincy is amazing with animals. She is so kind and understands and appreciates all of their personalities. I cannot recommend Quincy highly enough, and I am so grateful that she was able to house and pet sit for us during a very stressful time.”

I am an animal trainer and handler competing in multiple canine sports, and work with a variety of breeds. I possess a deep and genuine love for animals and promise to provide your pet with the best care possible. Through my studies in animal behavior and communication, I offer a unique ability to understand your pet's needs and meet them, ensuring an enjoyable and safe time for your pet. I have lots of availability, am very flexible with scheduling, have a car for transportation - pertinent in case of emergency - and sincerely care about the happiness and health of every animal under my care. My work and life revolve around my dogs and any animals in my cafe! They are always my number one priority. They will receive loads of attention, exercise, and love. Any animals in my care become part of my family. They are loved and appreciated just as my own. I love getting to know every dog and learning their personality and quirks.

“Sam was a great dog sitter! He was very kind, communicative and accommodating to all of our dog’s needs!”
