Clare did a wonderful job watching Lasha! She stayed in touch during the day, sent photos, and left the house in great condition. Recommended!

Katie was fantastic! She kept me updated on the excitement and was extremely respectful and trustworthy in my home. The animals are loved her. She was on time and followed all my directions and I would absolutely trust her with my animals in the future.

Zachary was so kind and conscientious of my older dog. Stayed a couple of nights and took great care of my home. Also, I came home to a calm dog and a clean home. He also gave me some great advice on end of life for my 17-year-old boy.

I have found my person! Emily is a true animal lover. She took wonderful care of my chocolate lab and my cat peanut. (my other cat just hides all the time.). It allowed me to be away with my family without worry or concern. The schedule that I have with my dog is pretty rigorous and she followed it without fail. I am so grateful to her and will 1000% ask her to come watch my animals again.

Robin took such great care of my 2 dogs and one old cat when i was away! It's always a bit stressful leaving your furry "kids" but I was put at ease right away. I got so many adorable pictures of all of them and updates at least two times a day and they looked great! My kittty Jerry is 20 yrs old and is on several meds and she gave him those with no problem. My flight returning home got delayed by 5 hours and i wasn't at all sure that it wasn't going to be canceled. If that happened I wouldn't get back until the next day at some point. My biggest concern was who would feed the animals and let the dogs out. i texted Robin and she immediately said she'd take care of them even though she had plans to go out of town that morning! That provided so much relief to me and i was so happy when the flight went out and I didn't need her. She brought in my mail and packages and the house looked just as I left it when i returned. I will absolutely use her services again and HIGHLY recommend her if you need someone to help you out with your animals. You won't regret it!!

About: I’ve always been comfortable with dogs of all types. I grew up with dogs and have spent my whole life around animals, so caring for them feels natural to me. I’m calm, confident, and make sure to adjust to each dog’s individual needs so they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I work full‑time during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings and evenings to take care of your pet. That gives me plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need before and after work. Mondays are my completely open day, so I’m available all day then for longer visits or extra care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels genuinely cared for. I pay close attention to their routine and what they need, and I make sure they stay comfortable, happy, and relaxed the whole time they’re with me.

Katherine made us feel at ease leaving our dog for the weekend. She sent lots of pictures and check-ins which we really appreciated, and highly recommend her. After a long weekend we came back to a very happy boy.

About: Communication is key. I intend on following any and all instructions and guidelines to a T! I love being around bundles of joy no matter the day. I deliver groceries when I have to. I am able to stop that whenever I need to. I’ll be readily available for services when you need them! All pets will be cared for as if they were my own. Handled with the upmost care and attention they would need at any time of the day.

About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and small animals. I currently house sit regularly for a family in South Kent, which has helped me build strong routines and trust with both pets and owners. I currently work in the Washington/Kent area pet sitting monthly for a family in Kent and babysitting in Washington. I am looking for additional work whether that be walking/feeding or overnight stays. I’m very respectful of my clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized, just as it was left. I also prioritize safety by making sure pets are secure and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health.

About: ***Any rates listed are inflated due to service fees and might be negotiable, please inquire.*** My first (and possibly best) job ever was riding around the neighborhood on my bike taking care of neighbors pets, plants, and homes while they were on vacation. I come from a family that had one or more dogs always, and plan to continue that legacy for my family now the second our situation allows. I'm well versed in all that's typically required for dog and pet care and have always been consistently diligent about instructions from owners. Happy to come by for an in person meet and greet before starting any services! Very flexible and open currently, as I'm working various jobs, all of which allow me to construct a completely custom schedule. Let me know what you need, it likely won't be an issue! Again, I'm always mindful of specific instructions from owners firstly. My first priority is to honor the trust that owners (and their pets) place in me to do the job whether it's an afternoon walk or staying in the home for an extended amount of time. Being communicative, honest, compassionate, considerate, and reliable I consider to be standard operating procedure.
