“I’m 100% satisfied with Azure housesitting and watching my high energy working GSD. She provided photos of their adventures and I had peace of mind that my dog was in great hands. My place was just how I left it and my dog was happy when I returned from a trip. I would recommend Azure for all of your pet’s needs. She’s awesome!”
About: I’ve taken care of various pets since I was 10. I have cared for many dogs, including puppies and seniors, but I also have experience caring for cats and other pets as well. My attention to detail, cleanliness, and energetic attitude will make me the perfect candidate to care for your pet! I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, so I’m able to drop in and check on your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m willing to take on jobs last minute and can care for many pets a day. Before my beloved dogs Rosie and Sissie passed away due to old age, I took pride in caring for them every day. I understand the importance of having animals in our lives not just as pets, but as family. Caring for your pets would allow me to utilize my experience and fill the hole in my heart that was caused by the passing of my own fur babies ❤️
“Kallie took very good care of all of our pets. She sent photos and videos of everyone which made our day. She also communicates very well. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. I will hire her again!”
“Sene was great! Communicative, reliable, spoiled my fur baby and left our place cleaner then we left it. She went above and beyond our requests to ensure our pup was well cared for”
“Jenny was a fantastic pet sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were gone for 5 days. I love that Jenny brought our dog out to different parks for walks. She also left our house in great shape, something I truly appreciate. Jenny’s communication is also very prompt. I will definitely be hiring Jenny for all future trips.”
About: Ive lived with and taken care of dogs for most of my life, whether it be my larger dogs that need someone able to burn off their energy, to more relaxed dogs i've taken care of for friends, family, and neighbors. No time spent with a dog is ever a waste of my time! Im currently a student at Western Washington University, however I have very open afternoons, evenings, and full-day weekends to fill whatever your dog may need Im comfortable and capable at handling any of your dogs needs, from stimulation and entertainment, to ensuring they're safe, healthy, and not getting into any mischief.
“Kaila was an absolute gem! She communicated often & sent great pictures reassuring me that Max was living the dream and Piper was relaxed and being social. My apartment was left super tidy and my " kids" were obviously well taken care of. I won't hesitate to hire Kaila again!”
“Bale recently watched our dog during a long weekend away. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Bale gave us plenty of updates and photos while we were away, which gave us peace of mind that our dog was happy and in good hands.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog overnight. I cannot recommend Camille enough. She made it so safe and comfortable for myself and my doggy. She sent pics and updates everyday. I loved all the great pics of all the adventures she took Trekker on. Also the house was in perfect order. I will definitely ask her again in the future”
