Cat Sitting Canterwood

“Jerry is so wonderful!! He is extremely kind, loves animals, and is just great. It can be hard finding someone you have full trust in with your pets, and I whole heartedly recommend him. Mahalo Jerry for everything!”

“Lydia was wonderful with my girls. They bark and intimidate some sitters, but she loved on them and took special care. She was also on-time for her visits. Very highly recommended.”

Susan C.

“My three girls already get excited at the mention of Erica after only 2 visits. Rover card report is always informative and I love the cute pictures.”

Joshua C.

“Sarah is always very punctual and goes beyond “ just hanging out” with my pup. She helps keep her physically and mentally challenged ! Riley loves spending time with her!”

Bonnie B.

“We really appreciated Christy's attention to detail and following all of our instructions for our cat's particular needs. Christy sent daily pictures and even searched for our kitty until she found her hiding under our bed. Highly recommend Christy!”

Sarah F.

“Wynona jumped in to help us out when our regular sitter was unavailable. She was wonderful!! She was prompt, communicative, and helped looked after our home while we were gone. She went out of her way to visit an additional day when I had a delivery too. Super sweet, and thoughtful. She even came by ahead of time to learn the nuances. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I am a stay-at-home mom of two human babies and two fur babies. I previously worked in upstate NY for a dog training company, My Dog Hikes, as a dog hiker where we took dogs from NYC into the woods for full day dog-care fun. Because of this I am comfortable giving medication and training commands. I also have a Cattle Dog (Clayton) and Black Lab (Tarzan) of my own. I would love to take your little ones on the trails, play fetch in the yard, or just snuggle on the couch with lots of pets. I have a very open schedule so can work around any timeframe you need! As childcare is very expensive, please note before booking me that my son, Eli (3), will be joining me on jobs during the week (daytime only). We can always meet beforehand to see if it's a good fit! **Temporarily pausing in home stays until my husband returns home from deployment** As I am a stay-at-home mom your typical work week is when I am available. I can be flexible around your schedule! I can also stop by to spend some time with your pets on the weekend, so you can go enjoy a trip away. (: I do not care for dogs in my own home as my Lab does not like other dogs. In your home, however, I take care to follow all instructions closely! I take many pictures so prepare for cuteness overload. I also have experience working with a dog training/walking company in NYC and am comfortable with a wide array of needs.

“Erin was amazing. My dog and cat were happy when we came home. My dog is a senior blind tripawd and the fact that she has a blind dog made me feel so much better about leaving my guy home :( She checked in twice daily on time and didn’t hesitate to ask questions when needed. I’ll definitely trust her with my pets again.”

“Very flexible and patient. Also good Communication. Keleia took good care of my baby boy. I definitely book her again in the future. I highly recommend her.”

About: I moved from Mi to Wa in 2015 and decided in 2018 to be a dog walker. That was in King county and after moving to a house in 2021, dog boarding turned into my new side job. Last year I also enrolled in Victoria Stilwell’s Academy for positive training. So I am very aware of dog’s body language and needs. I absolutely love dogs and they are truly my life now but when I was 8 that wasn’t the case. I was bit in the face by a family friend’s dog. He was old and on medication, I startled him awake which led to him biting me. From this incident, I watched Victoria Stilwell on animal planet to get over my fear of bigger dogs and here I am today with a certification in dog training and starting my career with human’s best friend. My goal is for you and your dog to be as comfortable as possible. I only treat dogs/pets as I would want someone to treat mine (and believe me I am a high maintenance pet mom 😉) Dogs are my job. Whether it is boarding, sitting, or walking; this is what I do full time. Sometimes I do Instacart to get out a bit but will do that when my boyfriend is home. I am starting up my bath bomb business again so to have a companion working alongside with me is my ideal work day. My boyfriend works from home majority of the time, so there is always someone home. His kids do come over 50% of the week and are very kind and helpful with dogs that are boarding with me. They are 12 and 11 so they aren’t little kids. I have lick mats, Kong Gyro, and plenty of space for your dog to have fun at my house. My house is fenced in, we are updating the property all the time to make sure it is safe as possible. For larger dogs, I have a bell on a ziptie to put on your dog’s collar just so I can hear where they are at all times when I am outside with them. For smaller pups, I always go outside with them due to being in an open area so they are safe. I also have a 30’ leash that I can hook them to for extra safety. Inside, I make them as comfortable as possible. Whatever they like at home I try my best to provide at my house.

“Teresa is Great! This was my time using Rover and I was a little nervous. However, Teresa was very communicative from the start. She was the only person out of many that responded instantly. She sent great pictures of Brooks playing, eating and getting extra belly scratches. Teresa gave him multiple potty breaks and used every bit of each 30 minute drop in to ensure Brooks had some company. I booked Teresa for 9 consecutive sessions over the weekend ranging from 7am to 7pm and she was never a minute late. She was even thoughtful enough to bring in my Amazon packages. All around great experience. I am positive that I will schedule with her again. It means a lot that she looked after my buddy with such a high level of care. Thanks, Teresa!”

“Lily provided an amazing experience for our fur babies! She went above and beyond from what we expected and even did a mini Fall photo shoot with the doggies!”

Nayeli S.

“Our Bloodhounds take a min to warm up to others while we are away. Dawn and her husband are very calm and patient with them and they warm up quick. Was nice to go out of town for a week knowing they were well taken care of with daily updates and pics! Highly recommend!”

Holly W.

“The kitties say she was great! Lots of pets and willingness to be accommodating to the more shy one. They even got treats as a bonus and would greet her at the door..!”

Team B.

“Kayleigh is amazing! She took great care of the pups during a long drop in making sure they were walked, fed, and played, and had extra patience getting our picky pup to finish his dinner when we usually can't get him to eat ourselves. We'll definitely use Kayleigh again!”

Sarah H.

“Bobbie is amazing. I will NEVER have anyone else watch my Cassie girl. She loves my girl like her own and I know that Cassie is being loved on and taken care of.”

Dee V.

“Great communication, I appreciate Megan as usual!!!”

About: I grew up with two wonderful dogs, Ranger and Lucy, and I helped to train them as I got older. I worked at a great doggie daycare for an about a year in 2023-24 and I learned lots of awesome techniques and information about dogs' body language, needs, and other things. I am also equipped to handle medications, whether it be pills, ear/eye drops, or injections. I enjoy being around and training dogs very much, I'd say they're one of the things I am most passionate about! I think that staying with dogs, either overnight or just for the day sounds like a dream! I attend Seattle University during the year (mid September-mid June) but I’m currently home for the summer and I’d love to make a little extra money taking care of your best friend. I work in the evenings Monday-Friday from about 3-7pm. I’m available anytime of day during the weekends and any time other than my specified work hours on weekdays. I mentioned this in my description but I very much enjoy training dogs (although I’m not the most experienced or effective), cuddling or playing with them, whichever they prefer, and am capable of providing medications of multiple kinds to your pets. I can provide potty breaks both during the day and night if needed. I can sleep on a couch or in a bed, either with or without your pet. Personally, my dogs are crate-trained, so I understand not wanting them on couches or beds to sleep or just in general. Although, I would be absolutely overjoyed to have a sweet cuddle buddy to sleep with me. One last thing about safety, at my previous job, I was often alone in a room of up to 50 dogs and am well aware of techniques to break up a fight, although I doubt I will need to do this, I think it’s an important thing to know about the person taking care of your pet.

“Nicole has been like a second cat mom to our two rag doll kitties. I book her every single time we go on a trip. She is the best. I feel so at ease when I know Nicole will be caring for our girls while we are away. She brings them treats, brushes them, and even puts on their "favorite program" (Cat TV). Nicole always leaves our house clean, and refreshes all the food and water bowls. She goes above and beyond for us and our kitties. We appreciate her so much, and highly highly recommend her!”
