About: I provide dedicated dog-only daycare with personalized care tailored to each dog’s energy and routine. I specialize in senior dog care — gentle walks, mobility support, medication administration, and low-impact enrichment. Dogs enjoy daily exercise, supervised play, puzzle toys, and cozy home comfort. I send prompt photo updates and detailed notes, and offer flexible scheduling to fit owners’ needs. I offer dog-only daycare for small dogs (under 25 lbs). Available Monday–Thursday 7:00 AM–7:00 PM, Friday 7:00 AM–5:30 PM, and weekends 8:00 AM–5:00 PM. Daily routine includes morning greeting and potty break, a morning walk or play session, mid-day rest with enrichment toys, an afternoon walk/play session, feeding/medication as needed, and a final calm wind-down before pickup. Regular photo updates and notes are sent after each visit. I care for dogs in my home in a calm, dog-only daycare environment (no dog sitting in clients' homes). My household includes an easygoing 11-year-old pug, Milo, and two friendly cats, Jewel (7) and Oliver (1); all are well-socialized and tolerant of visiting small dogs. I accept only small dogs under 25 lbs with friendly, social temperaments to ensure safe, relaxed interactions. In-home routine and care: - Introductions: Gradual, supervised meet-and-greet on arrival to assess comfort and body language. - Supervision: Constant, close supervision during play with separation options (gates/rooms/crates) if any stress appears. - Exercise & enrichment: Leashed walks, short play sessions, and puzzle toys tailored to each dog’s energy level. - Rest & space: Multiple cozy resting areas and quiet time for seniors or shy dogs. Feeding & meds: Individual feeding by schedule; medication administered as directed with written instructions. - Hygiene & safety: Clean, dog-proofed spaces; fresh water always available; immediate cleanup of accidents. - Communication: Photo updates and a brief report after each day covering potty, play, meals, behavior, and any concerns. I prioritize calm, supervised socialization and a stress-free routine to make visiting dogs feel safe and happy alongside Milo, Jewel, and Oliver.

“I had so much anxiety leaving my pup but as soon as I met Desiree I knew she would be in good hands. I know she was cuddled and loved on so we enjoyed our trip. Will for sure book again ❤️”

“I really appreciate Darby's stance on dominance upon arrival, she deals with no bull! And I felt my pup was secure during her daily visits at Darbys home, with walks and suitable interaction with other pups at her home, I had no complaints. My pup was fed her meals as requested and Darby went the extent to clean the containers I brougjt homemade meals in for feeding, so I hadnt needed to worry about that after a long day! I respect Darby's stance even if off stanish to start.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages - from playful puppies to wise seniors, so I understand each stage’s unique needs. Whether it’s training, gentle care, or keeping them active and happy, I make sure every dog feels loved and safe. I work full-time from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can give them attention, walks, and cuddles whenever they need. I provide a safe and calm environment for pets. My home has a fully fenced yard, and there are no children or other pets, so your furry friend can play and relax freely and safely.

“My Annie just *loves* Sonia and her awesome back yard! Sonia is so kind and loving with the dogs.... a gentle spirit... that makes it so easy to leave our pet with her knowing she will be loved, played with, given the time and attention she needs. It is so comforting and a huge peace of mind, leaving Annie with Sonia. I have no worries in doing so. And the pictures throughout the day are such an added bonus! I would totally recommend Sonia to anyone looking for daycare needs for their precious pup!”

“Alison is our favorite dog sitter. She is very responsible, great with communication, really takes the time to understand our dog’s needs. She works from home but always takes time to take our dog out for walks or play with her. You can really tell she loves dogs. We couldn’t recommend her more.”

Marianne J.

“We were very happy with our dogs care with Pamela. Our dog got the attention and activity with other dogs that he needed while we were gone for a day. And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”

There are always new toys and treats waiting to surprise them, and trips to the beach and visits to the dog park are often on the menu. Keeping your dog(s) safe and happy is my number one priority! I have a flexible schedule and dog-friendly home with a large, fenced yard and over .5 acre of walking trails for your pet to enjoy. I'm a buisness owner and mother to a pup loving 12 year old daughter, our 5 year old female shepard/huskey mix, Ruth, and our 8 year old cat, Ahya. At our home, your pup is one of the family! I work from home and set my own schedule so adjusting to your pup's schedule is no problem at all! Routine feeding and exercise times will keep your fur baby comfortable and happy. Daycare hours: 6:30am - 6:30pm I have a fenced yard, walking trails, and a friendly, energetic pup for your dog to play with.

Lots of toys, treats, and cuddles are sure to keep your pup entertained!

“Harley was a little nervous to be left here since he's a little dog and Kacie has a big energetic dog, but at the end of the day, I knew Harley adapted and had a really good time. Kacie gave ample updates so that I didn't worry about my little guy.”

“James was great with my large, energetic dog! He has a big yard (all fenced) and I know she had a blast playing ball with him all day. Thank you, James!”

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I have a genuine love for being near animals and taking care of them because they brighten my day. I am currently in college I want to try to make pet sitting a part time job so I can save up for my future. The apartment comples I live in has a dog park where a lot of dogs go and have fun, if there is any type of schedule by the owner/owners I would follow it. I usually try to relax on my free time, reading books and enjoying art, my hobbies give me time to take care of and play with the animals that I care for. The doors are locked unless I or someone with a key unlocks them, i make sure that the dogs have a leash on before I open the door and that there are no cats near the door to run out.

About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.

“Dani had a fantastic day with Rachel! She passed out HARD on the drive home 😂 She loves playing and peanut butter kongs!! I ran out of kibble but Rachel saved the day with breakfast!!”

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!
