Pet Sitting in Bellingham

“Kind, caring, and professional. Updates with pictures so you can be sure your pets are doing well. Just the the kind of person you hope to find to take care of your babies while you go away on a trip. Can’t recommend enough”

“Dana was great! Easy to talk to and very helpful with our cat. She administered medication to him, which is not an easy task. Very professional and reliable.”

About: While I'll be new to Rover, i have the utmost care, and love for animals. I make sure I can read their body language to see what they are thinking, since they can't talk. I've been my friends' go-to person for pet sitting and fostering. I'm currently away from my boy during a move, and need some time with pups and kitties! I'd be looking for after-work walks and visits to start with. Possible mid-days depending on location. I'm used to on-leash high energy dogs and long trail walks. I normally let them choose the path so they get to enjoy the freedom of choice. And I ALWAYS pick up the poop! As for cats, I just love them so much. I an experienced with positivity training, so I care deeply about being a good person for your dog and cat. I will never demand, reprimand, or punish the animal. They are another living creature that deserves a voice! This is their time, their walk, and I make sure I am paying attention to them, and the surroundings. I will not be offering in-my-home-sitting, but if needed, I can possibly do pet and house sitting. I'm mostly looking for walking. I have experience house sitting as well, and would treat your home as I would hope someone watching mine would!

“Keri was very responsive and made herself available around family obligations. She was timely, sweet and attentive ith my senior pups and my finicky Coco was even comfortable with her. Thank you Keri!”

About: I'm a stay at home wife, so I have plenty of time throughout the day to check on your four legged friend. I love all pets, and have never met one I didn't like. I've been taking care of pets my whole life. I had a business as a pre-teen, and I always get asked by my friends and family to watch their pets. I'm a stay at home wife. I had a car accident 2 years ago, and I broke my back. I did a good amount of physical therapy, and my healing has gone well, but I didn't want to return to my job in a bakery. My husband decided to support us, which leaves me free to pursue passions, like pet care and amusemant. I treat my pets like people. I talk to them and listen to them. I work very hard to earn their trust. Cats, I get low to their level and let them look in my eyes, scent my hands. Dogs, I allow to smell me and greet me.

“Gwen was outstanding with our new puppy. She was comforting and took very good care of him. She obviously has great experience with dogs. Look forward to using her again.”

“Jen took such excellent care of our dog and cat! Our dog is 15 and has leg problems, and she made sure he got outside and walked a little. She is so patient with him and always gives both our dog and cat a lot of attention and love. Can’t recommend Jen enough!”

Joan R.

“Cate is amazing! She saved our vacation twice! First time by being willing to step in last minute after plans with another sitter fell through - Cate did a same day meet & greet and impressed us so much with her calm competence that we felt okay leaving. The second time was by winning over our most neurotic kitty and convincing her to eat, so we could continue our vacation rather than driving back to feed her (which has happened before)! Cate took beautiful photos of all our kitties, and quickly mastered administering multiple meds and fluids to our most senior kitty. She kept us completely updated all the time we were away. We are so happy we found Cate and look forward to having her take care of our kitties again!”

Kathleen M.

“Cheryl took great care of my two cats while I was on a two week vacation. She handled food, water, treats, litter, and play just right. From the meet and greet, I could tell she has a sweet and gentle touch and really understands how to relate to cats. Her thorough updates including photos kept me confident that they were in good hands.”

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

“This was our first time hiring Jill and she did an awesome job coming to our home to check in on our three pups. We only needed afternoon visits and she did a great job spending time with them outside and making sure their water bowl was full. She left our house locked up and alarm set with no problems. Because Jill was so reliable and professional we hired her for the remaining 2 weeks that we needed the extra help. I not only recommend her but will hire her in the future!”

“Jess was extremely understanding and accommodating when my schedule suddenly changed. I’ve hired her before and will hire her again in the future”

About: I have had dogs my entire life! I have taken care of family member's and friend's dogs, both here in my home and at their homes. I've had experience with very senior and large dogs who need medication. I work as a writer, three days at home and two days in the office. I would love to add special time with dogs and cats to brighten my day. I am mature, reliable, and calm. I have a small fenced in yard and plenty of room for a dog or cat to settle in and feel comfortable. I live in a quiet neighborhood with dead-end streets. I am also near the Franklin Town Forest and the Trunkline Walking Trail, which are safe places to walk dogs.

“Our three dogs adored Talia and she even helped us out in a pinch when we had to add en extra visit. Very helpful with the schedule of an first responder!”

Laura K.

“Brianna was a star sitter! Though our shy cat didn’t come out to meet her, she still kept us updated through the weekend with pictures and messages. I felt totally comfortable leaving our cat in her care and would definitely book again!”

Kelly L.

“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”

About: I’m a college student currently studying Veterinary Technology, where I’m gaining hands-on experience in animal care in a clinical setting. I’m also a graduate of Norfolk County Agricultural High School, where I majored in Animal Science. Over four years, I studied animal behavior, husbandry, and species-specific care. Through my education and training, I’ve developed strong skills in safe animal handling, proper care routines for various species, and administering medications, including both oral and injectable treatments. I’m passionate about providing high-quality, compassionate care—especially for pets with special or medical needs. I’m currently a community college student, taking a mix of online and in-person classes. I also work as a substitute teacher for a local school district, with flexible, self-selected workdays. Because my weekday schedule can vary, pet sitting availability may shift during the week—but I generally have more flexibility on weekends. I'm happy to work pet care into my schedule whenever possible and will do my best to accommodate your needs. I’m experienced in following customized care plans and detailed instructions to ensure each pet receives consistent, individualized care. I’m confident in managing special routines, medications, or other specific needs as directed. Additionally, I follow clear instructions for home entry and take great care to ensure your home remains safe, secure, and respected throughout the pet care services.

About: Hi, my wife Ali and I have been boarding and walking dogs for years. We have 3 small dogs and 1 parrot of our own. We live in a large apartment that is very dog friendly and with a very nice brand new dog park in our complex. My wife is always home as she works from home and I work overnight so your pet will never be alone. We love to care for all dogs or other animals! We have 2 young children so your dog must be good around kids as well. If you have any questions please message me. Unfortunately at the time we are not accepting any large breeds (dogs that stand really tall on 4 legs) unless they are a small puppy and are 35-40lbs or less. We are am extremely flexible with pet schedules, as of right now we bring our own dogs out every 3-4 hours for potty breaks and playtime outdoors. I visit our dog park a minimum of 3x a day. We seem to be the only ones who really utilize it. We use the Fenced in dog park in our complex for free unleashed play and the dogs really love it and it has fun dog equipment and fresh dog water bubbler.

“Jacey is awesome! She took such great care of my 8-year old German Shepherd while we were away at Disney for Thanksgiving week. She was super reliable with her timing, feeding schedule, and walks. So sweet, kind, and helpful, everything you hope for when leaving your fur babies with a sitter. Thank you, Jacey, for taking such good care of Letty! She was so happy when I got back. And an extra thank you for putting out the recycling and trash for me! I’ve used Rover for a while and always found great, trusted sitters and Jacey is definitely one of the best 🙂”

“Miles was attentive and dependable, and my somewhat standoffish cats warmed up to him after a day. It was great to get daily photos and see how they were doing.”
