“Jessica was supper paitient with my dog who is fearful of strangers. She took the time to build trust and a bond with him when she couldn't leash him and managed to still get his walk in. Will definitely be using this sitter again. Communication was stellar when she was struggling with my bean, and she was willing to go above and beyond with my pup”


“Morgan is great with our Gus! He is shy around other people and we wanted him to be more comfortable around other people--so we thought a dog walker was a good idea. Morgan is gentle and patient ith him. She's only been our dog walker for a short time, but when we say "Morgan's coming today" his head snaps towards the door in anticipation of her coming. We highly recommend her.”


“Dannon has great communication skills and is doing a great job with our 1 and 2-yr old Labrador retrievers, walking them three times a week. We appreciate her care and attention to the dogs and the time she spends with them. Thank you, Dannon!”



“She does a great job with my dog and takes him out every day and is on time.”


“Zane has been very helpful for our two dogs with walkings during the day while we are at work. It is especially more complex as we have a 3 month old puppy who is still in training. Zane has been reliable and communicative throughout the day while we are away.”


About: I've grown up with cats my whole life. I currently have a 13 year old tabby named Charlie. I previously worked at NOAH Animal Shelter and Brigadoon Service Dogs. I miss working with animals every day. I'm currently working full time Monday - Friday 9-5 but am hoping to cut back on my hours to allow me to pet sit more. My husband and I are renting so unfortunately we can't host pets at our home. I'm more than happy to check in on your animals and/or house sit.

“Betty walked our dog daily while we were away, and she was excellent. She is a caring person with a great work ethic and is very communicative. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs and will happily call upon her again in the future.”


About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. Growing up in a home full of pets—including cats, dogs, fish, and birds—I developed a deep love and understanding of animals of all kinds. For over a year, I’ve worked at a boarding and grooming facility, where I started in bathing and drying, and then moved into a kennel technician role. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, administering care, and maintaining a clean, comfortable environment for each pet in my care. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also provided pet sitting and dog walking services for neighbors and friends, including care for senior and disabled pets. I’m confident, attentive, and animals are naturally drawn to the calm and positive energy I bring. **What Sets Me Apart** - Over a year of hands-on professional experience in a high-volume pet care setting - Familiarity with a wide range of breeds and temperaments - Experience with special needs and senior pets - Doggy seat belts in my car for safe and secure transportation - Strong attention to cleanliness, health, and emotional wellbeing Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I’m here to provide the same level of care and love they receive at home because they deserve nothing less. As a dedicated student, I’ve found that pet care is the perfect way to balance my schedule. Outside of my class times, I have open availability to focus fully on your pets—giving them the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a midday walk or overnight care, I’m here to help make your life easier and your pets’ days brighter. While I’m unable to host pets in my home due to limited space, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of yours. I’ll ensure your pets are well-fed, have fresh water, and maintain clean litter boxes or enclosures. For dogs, I offer walks, playtime, and park visits—plenty of fun and exercise! If your pup is friendly, they can even enjoy supervised play with my own dog for extra socialization. I’m also experienced with giving medications and have a strong understanding of animal body language, which allows me to recognize stress signals and respond appropriately. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, and I treat every home and animal with the same care and respect I give my own.


About: I’ve spent much of my life surrounded by dogs, cats, and horses. I have significant experience with special needs and senior dogs—providing the extra care, love, and dignity they deserve. I care for your pup as if s/he’s my own! I care for your house as if it’s my own! I’m extremely responsible, timely, gentle, patient, and clean. I’m active and love daily walks with your canine. Whether it’s special instructions for feeding, meds, walks, or bedtime, I’m ready to follow your (and your dog’s) precise needs. I’ve been petsitting (dogs and cats) for the past 25 years and my clients regularly refer me to their friends. Your fur babies are in trusted hands when they are with me. I look forward to getting to know your little (or not so little) one. I am able to spend evenings and nights with your fur babies. I currently an able to stop-in during the day as well. My own pets require me to stop in with them at least twice a day. I make sure all gates to back yard are securely closed, I am good at getting into the house without letting your dog escape. I take special care to make sure you pet is secure.

About: Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! Whether it's keeping your cat entertained or walking and playing with your dog, I provide reliable, loving care in the comfort of your home. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and your home like my own, while you're away! I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.

About: My affinity for dogs runs deep, rooted in a lifetime of experiences that began in foster care and blossomed when I was adopted into a loving family with two precious furry friends, Molly and Tyler. I cherished every moment spent with them – from watering and feeding to playful escapades in the great outdoors. As I navigated various social settings, whether at friends' homes or on the job, dogs would inevitably gravitate toward me, and I'd toward them. It was as if we shared a special connection, one that transcended words and spoke directly to the heart. Today, I live with two stunning Blue Heelers, Honey Sage and Smokey. These canine companions bring boundless joy to my world, and I'm constantly amazed by their ability to communicate with their hearts. As an empath, I find it especially rewarding to work with animals, tapping into their emotional landscapes and forging deep, meaningful bonds. I'm available to provide pet care services every day of the week, including boarding and daycare. I also offer pick-up and drop-off services and am happy to drive to accommodate your needs. Let me know if you're interested in learning more about my services. My Fenced-in backyard is a great space for dogs to play. I offer kennels/crates for dogs as needed, to ensure their comfort and separation when necessary. My two friendly Blue Heelers enjoy socializing with other dogs. I'll provide regular breaks every two hours and monitor behavior to keep everyone safe and happy.

Maria B.
“We have known Maria for 10 years, as a devoted friend. Because of her love of animals, we have used her several times to care for our two cats, Lucy and Lily (5year old Bengals). They were loved and cared for in the best way. While we were gone, she spent time with them and sent us photos of them curled up on her lap. Their litter boxes were sparkling clean and we never had a concern. They were loved.”


Betty R.Star Sitter

“Betty walked our dog daily while we were away, and she was excellent. She is a caring person with a great work ethic and is very communicative. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs and will happily call upon her again in the future.”


Jeanette R.
“I'd like to write about my experience, and more importantly Odin's experience with Jeanie. I was always skeptical about letting other people take care of my pet. I decided to give someone a chance. I hired Jeanie to take care of Odin when I was unable to. She was incredibly polite when we first met and Odin instantly took to her. While he was friendly, she was something special. I only wish I could share the pictures I have of them together on here. She treated Odin just like family, and you could tell he felt the same about her. She kept me updated with pictures of him playing, when I couldn't be there. Everything from him playing in a little pool she set up, to relaxing and watching some of Odin's favorite TV shows. In my opinion there is no one that I could have trusted more to treat him exactly how I would have. She is the perfect choice for anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry extended family.”




Roxanne R.
“I cannot recommend Roxanne enough. She is loving, kind, patient, compassionate, caring, and also a dog whisperer. She stayed with my senior Papillon in my home many times over the past two years before he passed away at age 15 in July 2018. She stayed here for 10 days last year, six weeks after he had hip surgery (when he needed medications, passive motion exercises done on his hip, and to be driven to physical therapy appointments) as well as a few months ago when he was suffering from late-stage dementia. I don't know how I would have survived my dog's final year without her. If you are worried about leaving your special needs or senior animals with someone, I totally understand. I barely left my house for the past year, except when I had to go out of town. Roxanne made it possible for me to do so and to feel like my dog was in the best hands possible other than mine. I am forever grateful to her.”


Karolina F.Star Sitter
“I've known Karolina for nearly 15 years. She is a lifelong equestrienne and dog and cat owner who loves and understands animals and their needs. She provides her own animals with the best possible care and lots of love. On the occasions she has cared for my dog Stella - a smart little rescue with a strong personality - she has treated her like one of her own. Stella loves her for it. I do, too, and wouldn't hesitate to have Karolina care for any of my pets.”
