About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. While I was in the Marine Corps I watched my superiors dogs and cat when they were away on leave. I have had dogs my whole life and I currently have two right now. They are both a year old and fully potty trained. I love taking my dogs outdoors to explore and I would do the same with yours. I am currently going to college but I only go twice a week so I have plenty of time for your pups and cats. I only go to school for about 2 hours a week, other than that k spend my time with my dogs and exploring outdoors. I live in a Apartment so I cannot watch dogs in my own home, but I can do drop-ins in your home, take your dogs one walks and little adventures if you allow. Definitely some pup cups every now and then!

About: Mature, Trustworthy, Reliable & Attentive Care for Your Pet and Home 🐕🐈🏡 . As far as pet caring experience, I had two dogs growing up in the South Sound area 🐶🐶 and have done some wonderful house and pet-sits which resulted in 12 out of 12 Five-Star reviews from a leading global house-sitting platform. You can see screenshots of these reviews in my photo gallery! Let me know if you’d like me to share my many excellent professional work references and 40+ positive Airbnb reviews. . While I used to pet sit while traveling with my teen daughters, I now operate strictly as a solo sitter/ walker, and will be the only person providing care for your pets and visiting your home. . As a UW-Seattle graduate, former sales and marketing executive, and current online business owner / remote worker, I bring absolute respect, clear communication, professionalism and mature responsibility to your home. I’m a clean, quiet, middle-aged gal who doesn't smoke, drink or (heaven forbid) do drugs. You won’t have to worry about unauthorized guests visiting your home during my time caring for your precious pets! .

What I’d Love to Offer Your Household: . 🐶🐱 Attentive Pet Care: I’ll treat your pets like family, making sure they get plenty of love, walks, play, and that their daily routine is followed.

When house sitting, I ensure all doors and gates are securely locked at all times, food and hazards are kept out of reach, and dogs are always kept on a secure leash during walks. I’m highly observant of any changes in a pet's energy or appetite, and I keep owners updated daily with photos and messages. Please view screenshots of my verified reviews directly in my photo gallery! =) . For peace of mind, I highly recommend an in-person Meet & Greet before our first scheduled service. This helps establish a great rapport between us and, most importantly, between me and your pets. That way, I’m already a familiar face to your fur babies when I arrive for the sit, and we can start off on the right paw!
“We are so happy to have found Micayla! She's been wonderful with our pup! She's professional and dependable, and is more than willing to help us out with training exercises that we are teaching our pup. She is a great communicator and keeps me posted on what's happening during her walks. I highly recommend her services!”

“Extremely impressed w/Adam. We’re scheduled to go out of the country for our 10yr anniversary, and had an already booked Rover unfortunately cancel on us so close to our departure week. Scrambling for someone for our 3-fur kids, we combed through the Stellar Sitter list and found Adam. He was quick to respond after we explained our sitch and was also very empathetic. And let’s talk about the meet & greet for an acclimation period, which is our policy. We wanted to ensure the vibe was right, and suffice it to say, the kids LOVED him. He had a very calm and disarming demeanor, and he went down to their level, which we’re sure lent to the seamless intros. We could immediately tell it was going to be the right fit, so we moved forward with the bookings. Adam just successfully completed one week of acclimation period with the kids. He’s very communicative, respectful of property, and very engaging. The kids respond well to him and they’ve been very excited with their interactions. We feel at easy leaving our precious kids in his care. He’s essentially an extension of our pack! He has our highest recommendation. We’ll certainly book with him again!”

“It was nice to be able to rely on Brooklyn for help with my dog and cats. I received a prompt review of the visit along with pictures. Definitely will book again!”

About: I've been an animal lover and care taker for years. I am a homeschooling mama of two children and have taken care of/trained dogs specifically for the past five years so I know the discipline that is necessary to maintain their wellbeing. I am open Tuesdays-Thursdays 10am to 230pm. Mondays after 3pm. Weekends will vary about every other week but I am definitely open to those days as well. I am unable to care for pets in my own home at this time due to living in an apartment complex at this time. As a pet walker, I am very respectful in places that do not belong to me. The ONLY focus is the animals that I am caring for while completing the directions that have been given to me. I am open to additional tasks, like feeding, affection and clean up if necessary.
About: I don't have any "formal" experience training puppies or anything like that. I've just been a cat mom for over 30 years and share custody of a 16.5-year-old Golden Doodle named Maestro the Lady Killer. He loves going on short walks and getting treats afterward. I am self-employed and a contract social worker so I make my own schedule. Caring for your furry family members can happen when you need me. Your furry family member's safety is my top priority. As a pet parent, I will treat your furry family member the way I'd expect a sitter to take care of my furry kids. I follow instructions well, so if you tell me they have a strict feeding schedule, I will follow it.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I love all sizes and breeds. They are truly a mans best friend and I love being around them. I will walk, run, and have play time with them. I will bath if needed and brush them. I am available in the mornings and evenings and even in the afternoons sometimes. My schedule changes weekly but at the same time it is flexible. I want to help give your furry friends the care they deserve. I am no stranger to puppies and am not afraid to care for them. I can feed your dog or give meds if needed. I have two cats and two dogs myself, a golden retriever and a mini Australian shepherd. My schedule changes on a weekly basis, but on days I am available I am typically available at any time of the day. Feel free to ask about other times and days on my calendar if they do not appear open! I would love to meet you and your furry friend for a meet and greet before accepting a job, that way I can meet you and your pet, understand their needs and your expectations, and ensure we are a good fit! I am used to both large and small dogs, and will treat them as my own! Safety is a number one priority and safety measures will be discussed upon initial meet and greet.

Elizabeth is reliable and prompt with communication. She is flexible with out last minute request and schedule change during our family emergency situation. Without her, we would have added stress worrying about our pet. Thank you, Elizabeth, for being there for our family. Elaine

Jenna is absolutely wonderful! The boys took to her immediately, and she jumped right in to make sure they were well cared for. They genuinely enjoy spending time with her, which gives me such peace of mind. She has been working with our family for a while now and has consistently been reliable, punctual, and attentive to their needs. She never hesitates to go the extra mile, whether it's putting on their wraps or making sure they're safe, comfortable, and settled at home. It's clear she truly cares about their wellbeing. We’re so grateful to have her, and I couldn't recommend her enough!

Rosa has a gift for dog walking. She is prompt and asks questions about Myka’s needs she is very friendly and made a fast friend with Myka. Myka is very excieted to see her and Rosa talks to her and pets her until she calms down. They always have a good walk because Myka comes back sleeping the rest of the day. I have found 2 really good dog walkers through Rover and Rosa rates at the top. She is a blessing and a keeper. I would highly recommend her.
Ethan did an excellent job walking and caring for our large, reactive dog. It was clear that he felt very comfortable handling challenging dogs, and after meeting him we felt good about leaving our dog in his care. The pictures and updates he shared after his walks reinforced this--our dog looked so happy with him! He was also extremely communicative and professional, which we appreciated. We feel very lucky to have found him and will absolutely use him for our future pet care needs.

Jordan was absolutely amazing! They took great care of my dogs and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pets were in such caring and capable hands. Jordan was reliable, professional, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jordan again. Highly recommend!

Shania has been really, really amazing with Milton and his struggles with PTSD and anxiety. She is patient, compassionate, and incredibly attentive. Shania took the time to build trust and make Milt feel safe. Her care has made a really big difference, and we just can’t recommend her enough.
