“James was great with Taina! When we returned back home, Taina looked happy and well taken care of. James followed the instructions I left for Tiana’s feeding and gave her nice walks. I was always updates with various pictures and a narrative of how the visit and walk went. I will definitely use James again!”

About: Not available in the Seattle area after Jan 26. I have been caring for large dogs as part of my family since I was a child. Now, I have multiple clients for whom I provide dog-sitting services. I have experience looking after a wide range of dogs, from big to small and of all ages. When I was younger, I volunteered at Family Dog Rescue in San Francisco. More recently, I spent some time at Emerald City Pet Rescue, where I cared for small dogs and cats. Currently, I am responsible for the week-long care of a senior Labrador (for the past 4 years), and I help another household with hunting dog mixed breeds. I am also capable of handling both low-energy and high-energy dogs. I am currently on winter break until late January and have high availability. I am also willing to take care of people's pets when I am back home for other breaks and near my university (Amherst, MA) I always make sure to give pets their own time to adjust to me and their environment. I always want them to feel comfortable and safe, especially in their own home. If any kinds of issues come up, I will always make sure to notify the owner.

About: The comfort of your pet is my top priority. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, large and small, young and old. I have also cared for large dogs that may or may not see other animals as snacks. My goal is to make your pet as happy and comfortable as possible until they can see you again. My current availability is pretty open! I am able to check in on you pets and/or house sit during week days and weekends, depending on your needs. My calendar will be kept updated! My current landlord does not allow pets in the home, so I would not be able to care for pets at my own place. I am all about playtime and exercise, but can also support plenty of relaxation time - really whatever your pet needs!

About: I’m a long time pet owner with lots of experience as a sitter and walker when it comes to dogs, cats, bunnies, and rodent friends. Special skills include… - Giving brooding hens a new lease on life - Sneaking in unappealing pills with treats I’m picking up lots of little jobs while home from college for the summer, so I have a ton of flexibility within my day to day. I provide care to by giving consistent supervision, especially if outdoors, to make sure pets are out of harm’s way. I try to offer physical and mental stimulation to ward off boredom and destructive behaviors.

“Anna is super sweet and very communicative! She helped out walking my dog very last minute which I so appreciate. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again in the future :)”

“Violet is such a gem! She is reliable, punctual and always sends photos for every walk. My dog loves her. She is also clearly dedicated to the wellbeing of animals as she is majoring in Animal Science in college. Highly recommend!”

I’m patient, dependable, and eager to learn while giving pets the attention, affection, and respect they deserve.

I follow pet owners’ instructions carefully, keep environments clean and calm, and make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated with patience and respect at all times.

About: I have had small animals and a dog, and have cared for dogs, cats, horses, and fish. I am completely in love with all creatures big or small, and I've dedicated a lot of my time to the care of animals. I have recently worked at a dog boarding facility, so I have lots of experience with administering medication to animals, and tending to their specific needs. Me and my family are all super passionate about animals, especially dogs. I will love your baby just as much as I love my own, and make sure all their needs are met. My weekdays are not typically very busy so I can come and take your dog for a walk or play with your cats pretty much any time, given enough notice. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your best friend! I try to vary my jobs so my schedule changes often, but always ask! I am currently getting my BSN at HCC, but time management is no problem for me :) I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a big field to the side of my house that my dog runs around in. I'm sure your pets will enjoy running with him. In terms of taking care of pets in my client's homes, I treat their belongings with utmost care and tact. I would definitely dislike anyone messing with my house, so I try to treat other people's houses with the same respect I would expect them to treat mine with.
