About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve handled feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight stays. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and routines and always aim to make them feel safe and comfortable. I am currently seeking for a job and have a really flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I could possibly do weekends, but it depends on how available I can be to help. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any other specific instructions provided. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe in their own environment.

“Amanda is amazing with my two dogs. One of them has separation anxiety and he was calm and playful the entire time we were gone. Amanda sent us regular updates. We plan to book with her again.”

“Devyn watched my dog somewhat last minute while I attended an event. I got home later than expected and she had stayed with him, which means a lot to me. I would definitely have her watch my dog again. Thanks Devyn!”

“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 :)”

About: I've cared for people's dogs, cats, fish and homes for a couple of years in the Lacey, WA area. I work remotely so most days I can be with your pets all day and I have stayed in homes for up to two weeks. I love animals and will play with your furry family members, take them for walks, give them medicine and stick to the routines you have established. I love gardening and am happy to water plants while you are away. I work remotely so as long as you have wifi, I can stay with your pet(s) during the day! I can stay with your pets any day/night of the week. I will follow your routine, take your pets for a pup cup if allowed, or just hang out and play and snuggle in your home. I work remotely so I can easily take your dog(s) for walks or play fetch in the yard on breaks. I am comfortable giving injections and other meds if required. Of you need me to take out garbage bins or water plants, I am happy to do that as well. I will leave your home just as I found it, ready for your arrival.

About: I have owned dogs for 11 years now, and still counting. I have pet sat and dog walked for many people; I have experience with different dog sizes, personalities, and training techniques, and have used that knowledge to better my skill set. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant, and have the training to preform any basic medical tasks, should your pet require it. I have also worked with cats, horses, exotic animals and livestock in the past. I am currently working part time form home, so your pets will have plenty of playtime. I am available for boarding or home-visits, depending on your pet's individual needs. I have a large farm for your furry friends to run around on. If in your home, I am very comfortable with yard play, leashes, and crates.

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs since I was a kid. Once I turned 15 I started pet sitting for family, neighbors and family friends. I live in Chehalis and I work for a Washington state agency in Tumwater. My schedule is 9am-5pm. If needed I can check on or take animals to the bathroom on my hour lunch break at 12. I’m flexible with anything as long as I have a good amount of notice. My family has 3 cats and 1 dog. My pets have helped me learn how to handle different personalities in animals, as well as teaching me to be more patient.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and I absolutely adore them! I have experience with small dogs as well as big dogs (around 100 lbs.). Most of my experience has been with younger, healthy dogs, but I'm open to older and special care dogs as well. My care routine is flexible depending on yours and your dog's schedule. If you're dog has a specific routine that they are accustomed to or special care that I need to administer, written directions are very helpful to me! I am a very direct and to the point communicator. Unfortunately, my own home is not suitable for pet care, so all care will have to be given from your own home. I look forward to getting to know your pup! I am currently working part-time, but I am hoping to be able to quit my job in favor of pet-care. I do not take pets at my own home, but I am more than happy to come to yours. I find that pets are more comfortable in their own home, especially when they're dealing with the stress of their family being away and trying to get used to a new person. In these cases, I let your pet warm up to me in their own time and give them a much love and attention as they will accept.

“Exceptional! That's the word that perfectly encapsulates our experience with Adam. He came through for us at the eleventh hour when our initial dog sitter canceled, stepping in to care for our furry family members during the Christmas break. His presence didn't just put our minds at ease; it filled our hearts with gratitude. With a 4-year-old Havanese and a 15-year-old mini-Labradoodle, leaving our dogs, especially our elderly one, with a relative stranger was nerve-wracking. However, Adam's dedication and understanding of our pets' needs transformed our apprehension into trust. He not only stayed in our home but also surpassed all expectations by keeping us updated multiple times a day. His regular messages, complete with photos and videos, allowed us to witness firsthand the happiness of our girls. Administering medication to our Labradoodle was no easy feat, but Adam's commitment shone through as he took the time to learn her preferences and comfort zones. Remarkably, our senior dog ate well under his care, something she rarely does in our absence. Adam tailored his walks to suit our doodle's energy levels, demonstrating an unparalleled level of attentiveness. Adam's thoughtfulness extended beyond pet care; he attended to household chores, from taking out the garbage to refreshing the sheets and tidying up the house. Though we missed our beloved pups, the peace of mind knowing they were content and cherished made it the greatest gift of the season. I wholeheartedly endorse Adam to anyone seeking a trustworthy, conscientious, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”

About: I have had over 15 years of small and large dog experience. I have worked in kennels so I have experience with handling several temperament types. Safe and compassionate Care is my number one concern! I'm currently going to school to finish my bachelors in science of nursing part-time online so I am home the majority of the week. I can provide around the clock care. I have a fenced backyard that attaches to my house and a large carport area that is covered. The yard is clean and grass is cut short. Everything is secure and checked regularly. I have three extremely dog friendly long hair Dachshunds.

“Alexis was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly communicative and sent me frequent photos of my fur babies throughout her stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I got home, they were happy and well cared for. She also left my house just as neat as I had left it, which made my late arrival home so much more relaxing. I will definitely be using her services again for my Christmas trip and any future travels!”

“Holly is an excellent sitter who I would absolutely recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for a quick check in or for a longer stay. She watched my dogs for a week while I was across the country and she was communicative and went the extra mile to make sure my dogs were comfortable. I’ve used her multiple times in the past and it’s always been a great experience. Holly is also very flexible for emergencies and changes in schedules. I will continue to use her in the future!”

Mitchell G.

“Alisha is just wonderful! We have a senior dog and another who tends to have separation anxiety. Our dogs loved her and they were very well cared for in our absence. I 100% recommend Alisha!”

Cammie M.

“Korin was tidy and communicated amazingly while we were away. Her dog played well with our big breed. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needed a house/dog sitter.”

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.

“All of our pets were well cared for and Kris provided updates and good communication. Very professional and obviously cares about animals. He was very attentive to all of their needs and kept them safe and made us feel at ease.”
