“Ariana is wonderful! She made friends readily with my fussy older cat plus kept me informed with comments and daily pictures. I was so impressed with her care of my kitty and how she kept his dishes clean and filled. I could see she washed utensils and bowls I left out plus took litter and uneaten wet food to the garbage can outside. She also went above and beyond when she discovered a leak in my roof, She cleaned it up and put a large container under it, saving my floor and my cat's living space. She called me when she got everything done and kept me informed about the leak and the cat daily. She deserves the highest praise for all she does and the care she took with my pet.”


“Genesis Rocks!!! She went above and beyond what any other pet sitter has ever done. She stopped by twice a day and spent at least 30 minutes each visit with my Baby Felice. The best part was getting a few pictures from each visit just to reassure me that she was taking care of her.”


About: Having my own 3 year old labrodoodle, I am well-versed in high energy dogs that need stimulating walks. I have done dog training courses with my own dog at the Happy Dog Institute in Tumwater and will work with your pup using positive reinforcement in our walks. I currently work from home and have availability to help walk your furry friend during the morning, afternoon or evening. I would love to be able to get your pup the daily exercise they need. I have been a dog owner for over 15 years and have experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve boarded friend’s dogs in my home and have been responsible for providing their daily care. I ensure owners are provided with GPS-tracked walks, a report of all activities in our walk and of course photos!

“First time using Rover and having Chelsie do drop-in visits. My 3 y.o. tabby jumped in her lap and rubbed on her during the meet-and-greet. 9 y.o. floofer took a few days to warm up although she did do an unexpected observe from a favorite perch. But Chelsie charmed her in the end. I especially appreciated the pics and short vid of my fur kids. Really happy for her care of them!”


About: As an AKC conformation and sport handler, I have experience with animals off all shapes, sizes and abilities! My experience extends to special needs, elderly, intact, in heat, puppy/kittens, exotic, large and strong pullers. In my home I have space separate from my animals, a fully fenced side yard and plenty of my own tools, leashes/collars of all sizes and supplies. I am a stay at home mom with no obligations besides Sunday church! You can count on me to have lots of time for your furry friend. I can cater my care to specifically what your pet requires. As an experienced AKC handler I have seen just about every breed and temperament under the sun.

“Felicia was great to work with! She was flexible with my schedule changes and extremely accommodating and caring for our dog we just adopted from a rescue. I will definitely have her come check in on our pets again. I enjoy getting the pictures and updates from her.”



“Katrina was such a lifesaver! I have struggled to find a good sitter for my big doggies as they can be really timid of strangers and occasionally make it difficult to socialize. Katrina was so patient and they warmed up to her immediately. I got tons of pictures and videos while I was away and I could clearly see they made a new great friend. I'm so thankful for her help, would absolutely recommend!”


About: I genuinely love all dogs. It makes me happy to make them happy. I love to walk my dog everyday and I even walk my neighbor's dogs just for fun. I am available on Mondays, Fridays and the weekend all day. On Tuesdays-Thursdays I am available in the mornings and evenings. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I will provide conscientious, attentive care for your pet. I am very detail oriented and organized. I will be careful to follow whatever instructions. I will take them very seriously.


“Our normal cat sitter was having a new baby while we were going out of town, so we had to find someone new. I found Rebecca after another sitter that I had lined up backed out and I was so glad I did. She did a great job! I also cat sit for Rover, and Rebecca gave the wonderful care that I always try to give my own clients. We appreciated the notes, and pictures from each day that she visited. My kids were upset about leaving their 3 kittens for so long, but they felt better seeing that they were in great hands with Rebecca. I will definitely use Rebecca again and recommend to others families with cats.”


About: I have lived with many different animals my whole life and have taken care of more than just my own. I have cared for friends', previous roommates' and family members' animals. Each one has quickly found me to be like a secondary owner. Of all the animals that I've cared for (birds, cats, dogs, rats, ferrets, and more) i found that I like cats, dogs, and ferrets to be the most fun and rewarding. Though I love all animals! I even make it a habit to feed and play with stray animals. I wish to bring them all home, but my apartment doesn't allow pets. Allow me to care for your pets while you're away and I'll make sure that they are happy and healthy while they await your return home. I'm currently pregnant so I'm taking some time to myself. Meaning I'm free all day every day. I'm more or a night owl, but will care for your animal whenever needed. I am very literal and follow orders to the letter. I will never do anything that you the owner haven't said is OK or not. If I have any questions I will not hesitate to contact you. The person who knows more about their animal is you the owner, so I will look to you for guidance. Want to make sure that each and every animal receives the same treatment that you give!

About: Come stay with us at PNW Precision K9, now offering kitty boarding and pet photography. Feel free to check us out on our website, FB, or IG. I have 14+ years experience working with animals, over the years I’ve worked in veterinarians, grooming facilities, and boarding facilities. I specialize in dog training offering basic training to working with dogs that have severe behaviors such as anxiety, reactivity and aggression towards other dogs and humans. Dogs who come for boarding are preferred to be kennel trained, but I do make exceptions especially for senior dogs that prefer to sleep on a couch all day. A little about me! I am 28 years old, I’ve been working with animals since I was 14 when I started volunteering with the red cross. I began training dogs when I was 18 while I was working at a boarding facility. I found my passion with working with animals when I was young, and have recently found my love for rehabilitating dogs with severe behaviors over the recent years. I run my business full time from home, so your dog will always have someone with them. If I have dogs that are not socialized I offer a two hour crate and rotate. Two hours up, and two hours out having fun and playing. Dogs begin to go outside at 6am, and they go outside for the last time around 10pm. I have a fully fenced half acre that the dogs can freely run and play. I feed breakfast around 8am and dinner at 7pm. If your pup does not finish their food within an hour, I will leave it in their kennel at owners request. I have monitored play groups up to four dogs, sometimes six if they’re breeds less than 35 pounds.

About: My name is Gabriella. I have never been without a pet of sometime. From dogs and cats to rabbits to pigs I have dealt personally with almost anything you could have as a pet. I worked as a dog bather and offer brush outs, bathes (blow dry included), nail trimming and dremmeling, as well as ear plucking and shaving paw pads. I have experience with puppies as well as seniors and can assist with potty training, giving meds, and basic obedience. I am a stay at home mom, so I am able to tend to your pets from 7 am to 9 pm Monday through friday From walking to drop ins I am able to provide top of the line safety for your pets. I can keep eyes on your pets the entire time I am there.

“Coy was a superb new family member. Our two young female cats were well taken care of. The pictures she sent was a great relief for me and my husband. She even moved to Garbage can off the road and put packages in the house. Would definitely use her again.”


About: I’ve watched and walked dogs all around my neighborhood while dabbling in house sitting as well. A few years ago I got a puppy of my own and it allowed me to learn how to care for dogs and gave me lots of hands on experience. I would love to have the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m currently working part time and looking for things to do in the day so I will have plenty of time to attend to your pups needs! I like to care for pets in a place they feel comfortable in. Whether that’s a fenced backyard, the neighbor hood or just hanging out in the living room :)

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a little kid out of my 21 years of life I've only not been around pets for 5 years. I will play with them and make sure they are feed and watered and if they are a dog I will take them out whenever they need to go out. I currently have no job and am available to show up and take of your pets for how ever long you need and whenever needed I currently live with 2 cats, I feed and water them and clean their litter box my roommates are the ones that bathe them when needed

Amara L.
“Amara has literally changed my life. Her service, both in dog training and boarding, has helped me manage my four otherwise unruly dogs, allowed me piece of mind, and the ability to take more vacations. In regards to training, she helped me when my dog was eight years old and set in her ways, begin the steps to getting over high separation anxiety. Not only was Amara able to help correct my dog's behavior, but she was flexible with what time and money I was able to personally devote to the problem, and work around those restrictions. Also, while it did not pertain to my dog, it was clear in the process that Amara had a strong handling and a wealth of experience with worse cases, particularly dogs with aggression issues. She clearly knows a dog's boundaries, and is able to problem solve around each individual dog using proven techniques As for boarding, I am very nervous about other people watching my dogs because of their behavior issues regarding strangers and due to past escape incidents with friends and family. However, when leaving my dogs in Amara's care, I have no worries. She respects my relationship with my dogs, while also taking my concerns seriously. She is also able to provide more individualized care than what a larger kneel facility would be able to give. If anything, my dogs behavior better when they're left alone at her place, and while my dogs typically don't get along with other dogs, they had no trouble adjusting to spending time with Amara's own two dogs, who are, of course, immaculately trained. There's also never been any trouble with other dogs, who may be receiving boarding at the same time. Overall, Amara, is a professional. This is her job and life's work; this isn't just a side gig for her. You are getting quality service choosing her”


Gabriella & Claiton B.
“Hello Pet Parents! This is Gabriellas husband, that does not mean I will be biased. Gabriella loves all animals, she is very reliable and sweet, and she will make sure your pet gets the best care until you get back from whatever you are doing.”


Coy M.

“Coy was a superb new family member. Our two young female cats were well taken care of. The pictures she sent was a great relief for me and my husband. She even moved to Garbage can off the road and put packages in the house. Would definitely use her again.”


Spencer S.
“For the time I’ve known Spencer I have seen him respond to a number of situations, he thinks critically and comes up with the best possible solution. I have a puppy of my own and Spencer is the only person I trust to watch him. He has helped me train him but also plays and cuddles with him. I can tell my puppy loves him too by how excited he gets every time he sees him. As a Rover sitter myself, I would definitely recommend and trust Spencer to watch your pets!”
