We have 5 acres that is fully fenced and lots of room for dogs to play! We have 2 very friendly dogs that love to play and cuddle.

“Jessica is genuinely a dog lover. Always greeted my dog with a warm welcome. Jessica showed up on time, and was very communicative throughout the booking. Communication was great. Jessica switched up the route she took my dog on daily to ensure he didn’t get tired of the same walk.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own—with love, attention, and plenty of snuggles. I am currently a part time college student so I have plenty of time to care for your animals! Just let me know when, and I’ll be there. I am very attentive on walks and will treat your fur babies like they are my own! I am extremely respectful of your space (and theirs!) and will follow your directions very directly and specifically. You can count on me!

About: I grew up with rescue dogs and cats and have had animals my entire life. I have also taken care of other animals for the past 15 years. I have worked with all types of breeds, from small Terriers & Pomeranians to Malamutes & Newfoundlands- some with more aggressive and reserved personalities. I have a calm but strong demeanor that animals are drawn to. Currently we have an Australian Shepherd named Buddy and an orange tabby named Phin. I am pretty available at the moment, as long as I have time to get my own dogs out to walk and play. My husband and I are fairly new to the area so I haven’t done Rover services out here yet, I did offer them before in the Portland area. I am an active person, so dog walking is definitely something that I would enjoy doing more of and I love meeting new animals and people- If hanging out with your cat is what you are looking for, I am happy to do that as well. I will offer a leashed walk and/or ball time if that is preferred. Each pet will get my full undivided attention and love during my visit.

“I will be hiring Shannon again. She was prompted coming to walk Josey and took Josey for over a mile walk each day! She was a very good communicator with me. Got several pictures! Trust her confidence and commitment to her job.”

About: My name is Kaylee and I like to volunteer at the local animal shelter, help my mom at her grooming shop, and love on my own furry family. Our pets are our family too and need that extra love when we can't be there with them. I have 2 dogs (both female) and 3 cats of my own. Currently I am home all day so your pets would be my priority. My animals get along with others and they are all fixed. If you need me to stay in your home, I also have roommates that can make sure they are fed, so no need to worry that I would need to suddenly leave your pets. I have dog sat for a few others recently and love getting to cuddle and walk dogs, but I do also love cats as well. If you have any other questions feel free to contact me.

About: Hi! I would love to walk and play with your pets! I love the outdoors and taking walks. Pets are family members and I would treat them just like that I work full time so I am only available evenings and weekends during the school year. During the summer I am available every day and any hours. I do not have any pets at this time but I have had dogs and cats in the past. I had a yellow lab raised from a puppy who became diabetic later in life. I administered insulin daily to her. I am just starting out pet sitting/walking as a part time job.

About: Ever since I was little, I have been surrounded by animals. Whether it is farm animals or pets, I have always loved being around all different personalities. I have always been the go-to for friends and family, mainly dog and cat sitting, but I have experience with chickens, horses, alpacas, goats, sheep, donkeys, ducks, bearded dragons, and fish. I moved back home to Tri cities after living in Portland for 2 years. My husband and I have a little one on the way and it has been hard to find a job. I am looking to save up some money for the baby and to treat ourselves when we can. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits and have had a few pet care jobs in the past. What helps me do my best is when owners leave a clear list of instructions—especially for feeding routines (if needed), any medications, and how your pet prefers to take them. I work best with a written guide so I don’t miss any important details and can provide consistent care. During visits, I make sure your pet is well cared for, comfortable, and happy. Whether that means going for a walk, playing, feeding, or just spending quality time with them, I adjust to your pet’s needs. I really enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and seeing their playful, goofy side. When your pet is happy and relaxed, I know I’m doing my job right—and that makes me happy too.

About: I love animals and they love me! I have been pet sitting for 3 years and have several repeat clients. I have had medical needy dogs I care for, senior dogs, and so many more. I love to help reduce their stress when their family is gone. I make it my job. I am there for the pets so I work my routine around them. Our pets are our family members and I work to give them the care and love they desire while the family is absent. I ask clients questions before hand, ask for a full list of instructions of what the pets require at bed time, meal time, potty time, and kenneling. I ask to meet the clients pets before the pet sitting date so their pets have met me and ask them to show me where they keep all the pet supplies so I can make sure they can leave their pets in my care without having to worry about a thing.

“Lacy is the best. Kind caring and patient!”

About: I've taken care of elderly pets in the past and currently taking care of my 16 year old Shih Tzu mix. I have experience with some medical care for elderly dogs, such as small medicine application and dealing with high levels of anxiety. Taking care of elderly dogs is an experience you have to stay alert when dealing with, especially when they grow to be deaf and/or blind as they get older. I'm currently focusing on school and will have lots of time to check-in with pet care, house sitting, or house visiting. I'm typically flexible in my schedule and can accommodate as much time as needed for you! I have a fenced yard at my house that keeps my dog safe and sound, in which, I can create the same environment for you pet if needed. As well as this, I make sure my dog doesn't create messes within the living space to ensure a clean living environment.

“Josh was punctual and good with my dogs. I have one reactive dog and he was understanding and willing to work with her needs.”

“Molly was so easy to work with! She paid attention to commands and needs for our very young puppy to help with socialization and keeping up with her training and was very friendly. My pup seemed to enjoy her a lot! Would definitely recommend as she seems very caring and attentive”

Mel F.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and have experience safely walking, playing with, feeding, and caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I can also throw a mean tennis ball. I am a student ant Columbia Basin College and am looking for flexible work to supplement that. My schedule is mostly open at this point. I have a reactive rescue cat in my home so I can’t host pets. However, when pet sitting, I always look first to instruction left by the owner, then tailor the experience to the pet’s environment, whether it’s walking on leash, playing in a fenced yard, or following a toy around. Ensuring cleanliness of food and water areas is a must, as well as maintaining clean litter for cats. A bored pet is a sad pet so I always make time for enrichment.

About: I helped my dog give birth twice growing up. I always have had a dog. Currently live with 4 dog ( 2 puppies ). I had a cat in highschool and a different one for the last five years Just trying to help out in my free time from my other job. I will try to be selective in a way to make sure I can ensure the best care I can for your pet I will treat your dog or cat with the love they deserve and also will ask how you would like me to care for them

“Annamarie came through for a walk at the last possible minute when I got stuck at work. The girls had a blast, and it made me feel so much better knowing they had someone with them for a while!”

Shay D.

About: I’m a lifelong pet lover with extensive experience including serving on a neonate kitten rescue board and rescuing many of my own pets. I’ve had all kinds of dogs with all kinds of personalities and I take special care to accommodate their needs. I am currently the mom of 2 labradors, aged 11 and 6. I’m recently retired and want to stay active and healthy so dog walking is a perfect solution. I have an open schedule and can get started right away. Pet safety is my #1 priority. I don’t let my dogs off leash unless we are in a contained space and in an environment we can control. I’ve had many breeds of dog and am fully aware that not all dogs do well with others so I take special care to watch for triggers so everyone stays safe. Once that’s secured it’s time for ball chasing and belly rubs!
