“I know Laura as Rene and they did an amazing job watching our husky Luna while we were on a cruise! We expected to have cell and Wi-Fi reception for the duration of our trip but as it turns out we did not. That didn’t phase Rene as they still sent us photos and updates throughout and was able to keep Luna calm during 4th of July fireworks. Rene is a super sitter and we will definitely be using them again. Luna can’t wait for more either”


“Havana been awesome with my two dogs, and they’re definitely not the easiest—one is older and needs meds, and the other is anxious and super high-energy. She handles both of them so well, makes sure they get their exercise, and stays on top of medications. Havana keeps me updated with how they are doing, which I really appreciate. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands.”

“Maddy was a fantastic house/cat sitter for our two cuties. Her communication is excellent, she carefully followed our sort of OTT directions for feeding and we returned home to happy kitties and a sparkling house. Thank you, Maddy!”

“Adrianna was great! She provided helpful updates and photos throughout her stay and left our home in great shape. Our cat was happy and well cared for. We plan to book with Adrianna again.”

“Jada was great while watching our boy! He gets anxious during storms and she kept us updated the whole time while a storm came through. She gave us regular updates and it was clear our dog was very comfortable with her. She asked all the right questions and was very diligent!”

“Daryia is the sweetest person ever!! She was amazing with our sweet dog and took such good care of him. Our dog is older and has a few heath issues and Daryia put so much thought and care into making sure he was okay. I can’t recommend Daryia enough!!”


“Chloe has been amazing with the boys, Ollie gets insulin injection after meals and it was handled very well! Very accommodating. Amazing sitter!”

“Sophia was absolutely amazing! She took time to meet my pup ahead of the stay and then communicated and shared photos throughout the stay. She was beyond patient with Shadows needs, and navigated a challenging moment incredibly. She is a gem!”
“Madalyn stayed with our dog Maggie for two full weeks. Our house was in great shape when we got back, and Maggie was happy and healthy! Will definitely work with Madalyn again”

About: I have about 10 years of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and needs, and am capable to provide individual care tailored to each pet. I'm currently in school about 4 hours or less a day so I have plenty of free time every day to spend with your pet! I have an unfenced yard, but plenty of access to local parks! I am capable of crating a dog if needed, and feel entirely comfortable fulfilling any other special requests!
About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets since I can remember. My family has had three dogs, four chickens, and a cat in my life with different needs and routines. I love animals and am able to adapt my pet sitting style based on their needs. My pet sitting experience ranges from a miniature schnauzer puppy to an old farm dog retriever. I will be shadowing at a Physical Therapy clinic, as well as peer mentoring for summer courses, so I will most likely be gone during the day. I am a morning person, so I don’t mind having to wake up early to make sure the pets need to go to the bathroom or get fed. I can adapt my schedule to fit the needs of your pet pretty easily, I am able to juggle many commitments at once. I am very detail-oriented, so I can follow any routine or set of care instructions precisely. Pets can be like an extra family member, and I understand how it is important to find someone you can trust to take care of them like so. I approach every new pet I meet with love and care, and will make sure they are as comfortable as possible. If there are any special needs or time where a pet needs, I make sure to set alarms and reminders so I don’t forget. When I interact with a pet, I make sure to read their body language so I don’t overstep any boundaries they may have.
“Madison was very responsive and sent me photos and updates every day! Yuki (my cat) took an immediate liking to her and it was nice knowing he wasn’t alone while I was gone as he’s getting very old! It was also very nice to get home from a trip to a still clean apartment and not have to immediately scoop the litterbox. Would def book her services again and recommend them!”

“Paulina is a fantastic animal care provider! She recently watched our lab mix and cat while we were on vacation. From the beginning Paulina was an attentive listener and all-around strong communicator. During our initial meet-and-greet it was obvious that she has a way with animals- both of our fur babies took to her instantly :) While we were away on our trip, Paulina would keep us updated with texts/photos and it always reassuring to see how much the fun the furry ones were having. We have already booked her for next trip in a few months and we would highly recommend her services to any of our friends in the area. 5 stars!”

About: Hi, my name is Sofie! I have experience with both overnight and drop-in dog and cat sitting, and I offer pet sitting services in clients’ homes as well as boarding for small to medium dogs and cats at my place. My home is a clean and cozy studio in a one-story complex in central Seattle with lots of friendly kitty neighbors. I’ve had pets my whole life, and being around animals has always felt natural to me. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from playful and energetic to shy and reserved. I have a reliable, pet-friendly car, so I’m happy to help with rides to the park or other outings if needed. I always provide regular updates and lots of photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I’m also happy to help with plant care during visits. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to the little details, and I’ll care for your pets as I would my own. I’m flexible with my schedule and can adapt to what works best for you and your pet, whether it’s daily visits, multiple check-ins, or longer stays. In a client’s home, I make sure to keep pets comfortable in their own environment, sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive to their feeding and walking schedule. I will give them lots of attention, whether they want to play, cuddle up, or give them time to warm up and feel safe. I always prioritize making pets feel at ease.
“Katarina was an amazing sitter for Zuko. She was incredibly accommodating, gave me continuous updates on Zuko, and went above and beyond with her care. Zuko ended up having some tummy issues and Katarina immediately updated me on the problem and even picked up his prescription from the vet on my behalf. She took great care of the home and was always available to help where she could while I was away. I would 100% book her services again and I am incredibly grateful for her care. Thank you so much Katarina!”

“Natalie was great!! Communicated regularly and sent us reassuring pics of our pup. Everything was done exactly as we asked. Our house was tidy and dog happy when we got home. Highly recommend!”

“Fantastic sitter who not only took care of my little girl, but also was extremely understanding and flexible! Got photos of my girl happy every day while I was gone and it put me at ease that she was safe and having a good time ❤️”

Sienna did an amazing job watching Remy! She followed our instructions perfectly, was great about accommodating a last minute booking request, and took good care of our home. Remy really enjoyed his time with her and was a happy pup when we got back. We highly recommend her!

Lauren was great! My two Saint Bernards loved her and her bf. She was a great communicator and provided lots of adorable photos. We came home to happy dogs, most importantly, and a clean house. She even went above and beyond by starting the bedding in the wash, not necessary but appreciated. We'd be happy to have Laurem stay again!

Absolutely incredible experience with Taylor 🌺🐾 From the moment we left, we knew our fur babies were in loving, caring hands. The constant updates, attention to detail, and genuine aloha spirit gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed, and clearly spoiled pups. Mahalo nui loa for treating our pups like part of your own ʻohana! We would trust you again in a heartbeat and highly recommend you to anyone looking for world-class care for their furry family members. 🌴☀️🐶
Chloe has been absolutely wonderful. She regularly stops by during the week to walk and care for our elderly pup, and has been so patient and caring while building a great bond with her. She recently stayed overnight with both our dog and bearded dragon, giving them amazing care, sending regular updates, and giving them lots of attention. We came home to happy pets and an immaculate house. She’s reliable, communicative, flexible, and someone we completely trust with our pets.

Luz was immediately comfortable with my two Belgian malinois who are not always immediately friendly. She kept me supplied with news and photos the whole time I was away and I came back to two well-exercised and happy dogs. I really can’t think of anything I would have changed about the visit
Havana been awesome with my two dogs, and they’re definitely not the easiest—one is older and needs meds, and the other is anxious and super high-energy. She handles both of them so well, makes sure they get their exercise, and stays on top of medications. Havana keeps me updated with how they are doing, which I really appreciate. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands.

Daniella looked after our 2 adult lab/shepherds (6 year old brothers) and home for 3 weeks. We couldn't have dreamed of a better experience from beginning to end and absolutely recommend Daniella 110%. Most importantly, our pups love Daniella. She's a great communicator, super responsible, and overall a joy to work with. From day 1 of our absence, we felt confident that our pups and home were in very capable hands. As we expected, we returned home to find the pups happy and healthy (albeit, likely missing their new friend, Daniella) and our home in pristine condition. Thank you, Daniella!

Madison was great! Super communicative, and great with our elderly, anxious corgi. We wouldn't leave him with just anyone at this point, since he really needs special care and attention, but we felt totally comfortable knowing Madison was with him. Would definitely re-book. Thanks so much, Madison!
