About: I grew up loving and caring for animals. I had dogs, cats, and even parrots growing up. I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR and have experience pet sitting for various friends and family. I used to volunteer with the Humane Society where I walked dogs and helped work play groups which helped the dogs gain social skills and helped them to get adopted. I currently volunteer with a statewide animal rescue organization doing technical animal rescues which include rescuing dogs, cats, birds, horses, and, on occasion, certain exotic animals. Our most common rescues include dogs that fall down cliffs and horses that are cast in their stalls and can't get up or are otherwise stuck and require assistance getting back up. I love getting to work with all sorts of animals and have learned a lot from the other volunteers which include EMTs, Firefighters, and Veterinarians. I work remotely from home so my schedule is very flexible and I'll have plenty of time to look after your beloved pets! I can easily stop by and check on them at your home as often as you'd like. I also love being outside so going on multiple walks a day would be a joy for me. I have years of experience with dogs and I also had cats growing up too. I do not currently have any pets living with me so your pet with have my undivided love and attention. I am able to maintain any schedules you keep for your pets such as when to feed them and any medications they might need to take. I'm certified in Pet First Aid/CPR and work with animals regularly due to my work in animal rescue so you can rest assured that your furbabies will be in good hands!

“I highly reccomend Brett!  I got very sick and was in a pretty desperate situation with my newly rescued, very large pitt mix.  I contacted Brett and he got in touch with me right away.  He came at the drop of a hat a few days when Ash really need a walk.  He even came from farther than he routinely helps people.  Very reliable, punctual and kind.  Was easily able to handle my 85 lb pitt mix.  (With bad manners...lol)  I'm very grateful for the help he gave me.  Give him a call!”

About: When I was little and people asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said 'dog walker' — and now I finally get to live that dream! This summer I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I have experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats, and I treat every animal like my own. This summer I'm home in Olympia taking a college course, so my days are flexible and my focus is simple — hitting the books and spoiling some fur babies! I have plenty of time and am committed to giving your pet consistent, reliable care My home comes with a large fenced yard — plenty of room for your pup to run wild, explore, and have the time of their life!

“Helena made time to do a meet & greet with my dog prior to booking. She responded quickly & professionally to every message, and she kindly answered all of my questions/concerns. She gave me updates & pictures after every walk which was awesome! I knew my dog was in great hands, I'd 10/10 recommended her to anyone & I will definitely be booking her in the future!! Thank you Helena! 😊”

About: I have been pet sitting for the a couple years, caring for both dogs and cats in a variety of settings. I have experience with multi-dog households, including overnight stays for over a week as well as shorter visits, holiday stays, play dates and walks. My experience includes walks, drop in care, feeding and meal routines, administering medications, avoiding pet allergies and of course playtime! I have dog sat for puppies less than two months old to senior dogs with mobility issues who need extra care, diets and sensitivity. I have grown up caring for my own dogs and cats, so I am very comfortable with animals of all ages and personalities. I genuinely love animals and prioritize making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I am currently out of school for the summer, working part time and focusing on side work, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. I have open availability for pet care throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I provide reliable care in my client’s home by following the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, giving any medications as directed, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I also make sure pets get plenty of companionship, playtime, and mental stimulation through walks, play, and positive interaction. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. I give clients updates and photos during my stay, and always leave a summary of my time with their pets at the end!

About: I've had two dogs as pets, one for 15 years and another lived until 11. I miss the companionship and would love to walk a few dogs in the neighborhood during work breaks. I work full-time locally and would love to break up my day with check-ins or dog walks. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan ahead for check-in, play, or for longer walks (up to an hour and a half). I have lived in Olympia since 2013. I am very comfortable working with dogs and have a soft spot for senior dogs or those with special needs. My last dog had degenerative myelopathy and enjoyed modified walks and exercise until the end. My hope is to have a few dogs during my work week to connect with and take care of, ideally up to two hours between 11-4, M-F.

About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats, and small Reptiles for a combined 10 years. I love to snuggle on the couch, go for walks, and chase the local squirrels. I have a full time time job my hours are 5am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday I also have a small gig job that ranges in schedule, will communicate hours when necessary. My two cats are pretty laid back, other than needing pets 24/7. Growing up and have had to manage many different types of pets, from super hyper and playful to couch potatoes.

“I have a skittish Sheltie who does not warm up to people easily. Zach shows great experience working with dogs and has gotten our dog to interact with him where others have not. I appreciate his dedication to taking care of animals and it was evidenced by the relevant questions he asked in our initial interview. So happy to have someone who I can trust my dogs with!”

“Maddy was great with walking our very excitable and energetic cattle dog, Otis. He liked her very much. She communicated well, sent me photos and a walk map, and was flexible with booking times. I would hire her again!”

Stephanie M.

“Great communication & you could tel that he loved what he does as far as taking care of our pets! Would definitely recommend and utilize them again!”

“Maria is especially good at coaxing our dog out on walks when the pup doesn't want to go. We also appreciate that she submits Rover cards for each visit and leaves the house exactly as she found it. We feel so much better about being at work all day knowing Maria is spending time with our dog.”

About: Im Ana, lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. We can do walks, hikes, swimming, even to a play day at the park. I’m able to give your dog/cat all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended. I can take dogs to dog park or the nearest park to make sure they get the most of the visit. As a stay-at-home mom (SAHM) with a flexible schedule, Pet care fits into my daily routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and ensuring their overall well-being. Be sure that if you decide on me I will go above and beyond as that is my style in life and with animals and people.

“Sarah was such a pleasure to meet and did such a great job walking our dog each day!!”

About: I have over three years of experience working at Mud Bay (local to the PNW). I am thoroughly knowledgeable in holistic wellness solutions and helping to educate pet owners on nutrition and lifestyle choices for their cat and/or dog. Pets have always been a part of my life and I can't imagine it any other way. I’ve taken care of animals since I was eight years old, happily offering my services as a pet-sitter to friends and neighbors. Most recently, I have worked with private clients and have several long standing relationships. Proud owner of two therapy dogs in training and one cozy kitty! Currently, I am a massage therapy student in Tumwater, WA and my availability revolves around my school schedule. I have classes from 9am- 2pm, Monday- Thursday. Fridays are my most flexible day. I'm excited to stay active and more than happy to exercise with your pets! I am extremely respectful of other people’s spaces, only utilizing what is necessary to care for your pet! I’m a trustworthy, tidy, and reliable individual who focuses on the task at hand and stays engaged.

About: For several years I cat and dog sat for my cousins while they were on vacation, and I occasionally care for my friend’s 3 legged pitbull. For my last job I was I walking a wire haired pointing griffin twice a week. I did this for about 3 and a half years. I myself have a chihuahua and have had cats throughout my life:) Whether it’s all day or just a drop in, I can be flexible depending on what kind of care you’re looking for. We can work together to find a schedule that works for both of us:) Caring for your pet in your home is a level of trust I don’t take lightly, so I want to respect your space and how you use it. Your pet's comfortability and safety is the first priority so having them in a space that they already know can be all the more helpful.
