“Thank you so much Niomi for taking such great care of our kitties while we were away. And the kitties thank you very much for their little Christmas gift you left them, too. I will surely book Niomi again.”

“Thank you Virginia! They both were super happy and all the check ins and photos were great! I really appreciate the special care you gave our pets. It was very comforting knowing they were being well taken care of. Thank you!”

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.
“Fabulous cat sitters! Great updates for each visit. They were both so kind - even though my cat can be a bit of a jerk!! I will definitely use them again and would highly recommend them!”


“Jordyn is a great pet sitter! Responsible, trustworthy, and she really made our sweet kitty feel loved while we were gone. I appreciated the daily report cards and photos. I could tell my fur baby was happy with Jordyn.”

“Kelsey was great for our first time drop in visit. Hamish was so relaxed when I came home, when I had been away the whole day. I am looking forward to trying Kelsey for longer visits.”

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.
“Christal was the absolute BEST, she was able to help us out in a emergency situation. She was super communicative, and appreciated the consistent updates with all her visits (I’m a worrywart ?). She very sweet and will absolutely book again when needed!”

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!
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.
“Both Matt and Rachel were very nice and got along with our dogs well. We have some high maintenance pups and I felt very comfortable leaving them in Matt and Rachel’s hands. They were very accommodating and able to work with us through some schedule changes due to medical needs for one of our dogs.”

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 been around animals my whole life. I have been taking care/riding horses since I was 3, have 2 dogs (senior & adult), and I have my own leopard gecko! Animals tend to find my calm and collected demeanor comforting. I am a 2026 graduate and this summer I am working part time at Nonna Luisa’s in downtown Anacortes. I don’t start work until 4 and tend to have all of the morning to myself, so why not fill it with animals! I would create a personal pet plan with the owner to fulfill the pets needs. This could be walking, letting them out, or just keeping them company!

10/10 recommend!! Holly did such a great job with my cat! I can tell she loves cats and is there to hang out with your pet and make them feel better while you’re gone. She’s friendly and responsive and there’s nothing to worry about. Great pictures and write up on the rover card and I felt my cat was well taken care of.

Our cats love Samantha and we wouldn’t choose anyone else to care for them while we’re away! Samantha went above and beyond to make sure our cat’s automatic feeders were working when technical difficulties came up. Our cats can be shy and standoffish with new people but are totally out of their shells with Samantha! Thank you for another great experience :)

Cassidy was amazing! This was my first time utilizing rover and finding a pet sitter for my cat and I felt like my cat was in great hands with Cassidy. Communication was quick and seamless prior to booking and during the serviced days. I actually had a power outage which warranted an emergency visit which Cassidy was on top of and made an extra trip to check in on my automatic water and feeder. Will definitely be rebooking in the future :)
