“Samantha helps me be a better dog mom. She is so loving and attentive with my dog. Since Samantha has been walking my dog, my dog has been much less reactive on leash and is a better citizen. Samantha is an excellent, sweet person and I’m so thankful for her care of my dog.”


“Bridget was great with Suzette. She is a big girl and is sometimes hard to handle. It was apparent that Bridget is a professional and great with dogs. Thank you Bridget. Will use you again.”


“My dogs loves Murron! She has walked my giant and mini schnauzer a couple of times throughout the week and I will continue to rebook her service. Murron will ACTUALLY walk your dog for at least 30 minutes sometimes more! She doesn’t check in with the walk until she is actually outside with my dogs. I have experienced so many sitters checking in when they are still in their car or sitting in their car for a few minutes to end the walk. Murron is honest and dependable. She also treats and talks to my dogs very sweetly.”


“Bridget accepted a last minute job and even was able to fit in a meet and greet in the morning. Really appreciated her taking Oly out for the full hour, which sadly not every walker does! Thanks for the last minute help, Oly really appreciated it.”



“Ari has been walking our dog on a weekly basis for the past six months. He is very dependable, professional, and trustworthy. We highly recommend him. You AND your dog will be more than happy with the service.”


“Missy has been patient and willing to get to know our shy pup. We could tell immediately she has tons of experience and our dog clearly felt comfortable. We highly recommend her for her professional and individualized pet care!”


“Paige has been awesome. Very dependable and our Basset, Maddie loves her walks with Paige. I booked a couple of days to start while my wife was hospitalized and I was spending long hours there. I have now booked a second week, two walks a day because Paige has proven to be excellent!”

“I had to attend a class on a Saturday morning, usually prime dog time.The dogs seemed content, and responded well to their time with Madison.”


“Jeffrey was great about communication, being on time, and taking good care or our puppy Kluska. Will definitely hire him again when we need some extra help.”


About: 【Pet Care Experience】 I care for every animal as if they were my own and always strive to make them feel safe, seen, and loved. I was actively involved in an animal protection society for 3 years, where I helped rescue and foster sick or abused cats and dogs. In August 2022, my friends and I discovered 42 abandoned breeding cats in a closed pet store in Guangzhou—we organized their rescue and successfully found homes for them. I personally fostered and rehomed 5 cats and 2 dogs. Currently, I volunteer at a local shelter 2–3 times a week, helping with dog walking, kennel cleaning, and matching pets with potential adopters. My experiences have allowed me to work closely with animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. ———————————————— 【Schedule】 I have a highly flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate your pet’s needs with ease. I’m available for last-minute bookings as well as care during non-standard hours, ensuring consistent and reliable support whenever you need it. ———————————————— 【Safety, Trust & Environment 】 Meet and greet is always free! While I don’t offer pet sitting in my own home, I’m fully committed to meeting your pet’s needs in their familiar environment. Whether they require crate time, one-on-one companionship, hand feeding, or special care, I’m prepared to handle almost any situation with patience and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and videos, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. ————————————————

“Terrific, attentive, professional”


About: I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike! I mostly work from home, so your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.

“Cass is reliable, prompt, communicative, and friendly. She works well with my older dog who can be reticent with new people.”


“Ruby is normally suspicious of strangers but Tananda was able to coax her into walks with patience and a few treats. We appreciated her understanding with Ruby being wary at first. Her flexibility and communication helped with scheduling too.”


About: I used to own several animals and always loved having them around i would watch family animals take them on walks play with them i believe animals are family I am a self employed parent of a one year old I will have plenty of time to take your fur baby on walks to the park play time whatever they need I am attentive and caring I will always give your fur baby the same amount of attention as you would long walk play time whatever they need

“Ashley was great! She came over for an initial walk to meet our pup while we were home, at our request, before starting weekly walks during the work day. She responded very promptly and was polite and flexible. Our dog was very happy after the walk and we are very excited to keep working with Ashley.”


“Helena takes the best care of my dog! She always makes time for her in her schedule. I always look forward to the updates she sends me after her visit”


About: * summer is here and I still have a few openings left so book asap! Also... I know it seems too early and sunny to think about the holidays, but I usually book up months in advance so reach out, even if you don't have exact travel plans, but know you'll need pet care. I currently have Labor Day already booked, but mid November - New Years is pretty much open, except one booking in Dec. Check my updated calendar. My dog care experience spans all ages and breeds. I know puppies are more work, but I enjoy working with them on leash and obedience training to maintain good habits while their people are away. I have experience with giving daily medications and have cared for senior dogs, one who needed daily blood sugar testing and insulin shots. I live mobile between pet sitting gigs staying with friends and family from Marysville to Olympia. I started pet sitting for clients when I was house cleaning during the time I was in grad school. Because I was already working in their homes and had biweekly interactions with their pets, it was an easy transition to pet care. It was also during this time that a couple of professors inquired about pet sitting. I was a backup for one of thier regular sitters and the other, I'm still their regular sitter 7+ years later. I care for your pets the same way you would. They like to sleep in the bed with me? Cool. They need extra outside play time or walks to keep their anxiety low because you're gone? Done. I am very intuitive to reading their energy and do everything I can to meet their needs. Do you have some anxiety about being away and want pictures daily? Got it covered. My experience with house cleaning also menas I take care of the spaces I am staying so I am happy to water house plants and take care of gardens if needed.

“Nicholas was amazing with our dogs! His communication was above and beyond and made sure to let us know our dogs were well taken care of. Would absolutely book walks with him again!”


About: I've owned pets pretty much my whole life and absolutely love animals. I have taken care of many types of cats and dogs since I was 10. I have consistently pet sat for two cats, and walked a Chihuahua. I also have experience with poodles, huskies, heelers, Golden retrievers, and labs. Including puppies and kittens. My main concern is making sure that your pets are happy and comfortable! I am currently on summer break so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Unfortunately I do not do boarding or overnight stays. I have two cats of my own, who love exploring outside and sleeping. As well as a very energetic husky Shepard mix who likes sleeping in the hole he dug in our backyard.
