About: I grew up in a large industrious family (the Duntons) full of farm animals, cats, and dogs next to Lake Erie. I’ve taken care of animals throughout my life, and am part of a well-known and trusted large family in the Anacortes area with many well-known, trusted small family businesses (Dunton’s Body Shop, 6th Street Hair Co, Gae’s Drapery, Fidalgo Flower & Co, and more) and can be trusted with your home and pets. Thanks for looking! Fully open schedule. I can adapt to any feeding, behavioral, or exercise schedule your pet or pets may have. This is supplementary income for a fixed income retired situation. Highly skilled pet care from a trusted local family member woven into the Anacortes community. Absolute careful and loving pet care coming from decades of experience. Your pets are in excellent hands!

“Super friendly and an awesome dog walker. He can help with last minute stuff to which is a godsend for us sometimes. He goes above and beyond with photos and updates for us on our pup. Thank you for being awesome.”

About: I've been caring for animals my whole life—starting with neighborhood pet sitting in middle school and continuing through today with my own 9-year-old pup. I understand that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and needs, and I genuinely love getting to know each one. Whether it's long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they're my own. As an avid outdoorswoman, I'm always ready for adventure and can give your active dog the exercise they crave, or provide the calm, steady presence your senior pup deserves. I work remotely from home, which gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day and week. I can easily accommodate morning walks, or daytime check-ins without the constraints of a traditional office schedule. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long adventure hike, or just companionship during the workday, I can adapt my schedule to fit your pet's routine and needs. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal. I treat both with the utmost respect and care. I'll follow your specific instructions, keep your home secure, and maintain your pet's regular routine to minimize stress. During walks, I stay vigilant about traffic, other dogs, and potential hazards. I can send regular photo updates so you can see your pup is happy and well-cared for.

About: I have patience when it comes to animals. If they are happy then I am happy. :) I am very active, love running, walking, being outdoors. I am accommodating to your pets needs. Whether they are indoor only, have strict diet structures, I can help make sure they are taken care of and happy My schedule is flexible with the exception of some weekends when I work my part time job managing road running races. I do not have children so being around animals brings me great joy. I have a 4 year old golden retriever and an 11 year old orange tabby that is indoor only. They are my whole world and it brings me so much happiness to provide them their best life possible. I want all animals to feel the same way.

About: *We do not accept bookings that give less than 48 hour notice from the start date. Sorry!* I am a professional dog trainer and breeder of Australian Shepherds. My family and I have moved all over the US and are now back in Washington! I used to run a fully operational boarding facility and board and train program in Island County and have decided to start out slow now that we're settled back in our home state. I have 20 years of experience training dogs- 15 of those years being a paid, licensed and insured professional. I take the utmost care of any animal in my charge. I treat them like family and honor all the requests made by owners to ensure their pet is treated perfectly when they are gone! I understand the love and care people have for their animals and do everything I can to show that same level of care when they are under my watch. I take videos and photos regularly to keep families updated, as well! I am a SAHM with decades of experience in the canine world. My dogs, and my clients, are my life. They are my whole routine! I am equipped to manage all varieties of dogs from the easiest house guest to dog aggressive cases or complicated medical needs. I tailor my services to each individual dog to give them the best possible care and allow their people to have some freedom and know their dog is well cared for. I make sure to chat with owners and let them know what variety of boarding I offer is most suitable for their dog. I am able to make multiple daily trips to feed, potty and play with client dogs in their homes. My times are very flexible and have often done combo stays- where your dog stays the night with me and I drive it to your home during the day and pick up again in the evening. This works well for senior dogs or puppies who need monitoring over night.

“Audrey was great! She was available on short notice for a next-day visit, was easy to communicate with, showed up exactly when she said she would, and did great with our Cavalier puppy! Will definitely be booking her again!”

About: My family and I had a Brittany Spaniel for about 6 years before she passed away due to bone cancer. I tried my hardest to make those 6 years the best years of her life! I ran with her, I fed her, I slept with her during thunderstorms, I loved my dog and I should love yours too! I have an outgoing personality that fits well with dogs and if they need anything I am able to provide it! I should be available most days of the week, but weekends are preferred. I love dogs and cats! I have just graduated with my bachelor's in psychology and minor in philosophy and am now back home looking to make some money in the meantime of finding steady employment! This means I am available pretty much 24/7 at the moment! I always make sure animals are well fed, well rested and happy! I am generally pretty relaxed, but am up for playing with animals if they are ready as well!

About: Caring for pets has always been one of my favorite things to do. I’ve been looking after cats and dogs since I was 10 years old, starting with walking my parents’ dog. Now, I have two indoor cats of my own who keep me busy and entertained every day. I make sure they stay active with plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles, while also creating a calm and loving environment for them. I currently have open availability and a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive pet care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m dependable, respectful, and always follow pet care instructions closely. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for with plenty of playtime and attention.

About: I’ve been around all animals almost all my life and have always had the biggest love for them. I have also worked at veterinary offices and love almost every part of it :) I am currently doing online courses for school at skagit valley college and have an open schedule to help out with any type of animal care :) I have a fully fenced back yard that dogs would love and hardwood floors inside my house for when they are inside. I am fully capable of taking care of the animals however wanted :)

About: I send regular photos, updates, and little stories so you always know how your dog is doing. I take the time to get to know your pup’s personality, quirks, and needs—so they feel safe and seen. I work at coffee stand and I start mid afternoon and typically off by 3/4 pm. Or I start early and I’m off by 12. I typically don’t do much with my days so I have a lot of free time before and after work I have a fenced yard and my dog is super friendly and loves playing with other dogs. We live in a nice neighborhood where we go on lots of walks by the lake. We have a very calm home and a cozy house
