About: Hi! I’m Shelley in Cle Elum, WA, and I offer dog boarding and doggy day care in my home or adventurous walks in your neighborhood. I work from home, so your pup will get lots of attention, frequent potty breaks, and a steady routine—not long stretches alone. My home & yard My home is set up to be comfortable for guests, with no off-limits areas for dogs. The floors are about 50/50 hard surfaces and carpet. Outside, I have a fully enclosed 6-foot privacy fence and a secure backyard for play and potty breaks. Dogs that can use a medium dog door are welcome to go out as needed, and for larger dogs (or dogs not dog-door trained), I take them out as frequently as required. My household My household is calm, pet-focused, and well-managed, consisting of myself, a puppy, and two friendly ferrets. The ferrets are primarily housed in a secure enclosure for safety, but they enjoy several hours of supervised free-roaming time each day for enrichment and exercise. I maintain a clean, structured environment and am experienced in balancing the needs of different types of animals, ensuring a safe and comfortable space for all pets in my care. Meet & greet preferred but not required My preference is to have a meet and greet in my home for all new dogs so you can see the environment and we can do introductions in a calm, controlled way. Ideally, meet & greets happen sometime during the week prior to your dog’s first stay. Day care & boarding routine Because I work from home, I can provide: • Frequent outdoor breaks throughout the day • Walks (up to several times a day). Distance is dependent on your dog’s energy and activity level. • Daily backyard playtime (fetch, tug-of-war, etc.) • Optional enrichment using puzzles or toys you bring Training, rules & sleeping setup I’m happy to follow your training rules and house routines—heel on walks, sit before treats, and any boundaries you want reinforced. I’m comfortable with crate training (using your crate). For overnight boarding, guest dogs can sleep wherever you prefer, and I do allow dogs in my bed if that’s their normal routine at home. Feeding & medications I feed based on your dog’s normal schedule and I’m comfortable giving medication with clear instructions and the method that works best for your dog. I’m also very comfortable caring for senior dogs and special-needs pets. What I accept • Most breeds, sizes, and ages, including puppies (I prefer they are mostly potty trained) • I do not accept aggressive dogs or dogs that are not housebroken • I prefer no females in heat and no unneutered males • I also accept small animals such as guinea pigs and hamsters, as well as exotic pets including ferrets and sugar gliders Safety, updates & emergencies Safety is always first: dogs are leashed on walks, and during meals, dogs are separated and monitored. I send daily updates with a photo and/or video and a quick note. If your dog gets sick or injured, I’ll take them to the vet as soon as possible and message you quickly with what I know, then follow up once I have more information. If you’re looking for a sitter who’s consistent, attentive, and treats your pets like family, I’d love to meet you and your furry friends! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I already structure my days around animals. I have several pets of my own, and I work from home, so I’m able to be present throughout the day for consistent supervision, potty breaks, feedings, and companionship. I keep a steady schedule in the mornings and evenings for meals and care, and I build in time during the day for walks, play, and enrichment. Because I’m home-based and used to managing multiple animals, I can reliably follow each dog’s routine and provide attentive care rather than long stretches alone. When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor playtime, along with regular walks tailored to their energy level and routine. Since I work from home, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I focus on keeping their routine consistent and making them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I also have an established relationship with a local vet, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in safe, capable hands.

“She took great care of our animals!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 12, and people have hired me to house sit with their pets. I love all animals, and have experience with pets from 8 weeks old to senior pets! I work part time in the cle elum area, and am looking at working full time soon. I would love to stay busy with pets as a job as well, as I love animals! I keep to feeding schedules and have worked with animals that needed medications, and I follow house rules strictly. When walking I always keep animals on leashes, and I make sure animals are indoors when they are supposed to be.

About: I offer extensive, lifelong experience in animal care, developed while growing up on a working farm. This background instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility and a strong foundation in proper animal care. My hands-on experience spans a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and guinea pigs. I’m a college student but on break for the summer so I have a lot of time to work. Animals have been apart of my everyday routine for years so, I’m used to the responsibility pets take. Pets just like anyone else need a safe environment. Since I grew up in a pet friendly house I’ve been more aware of the hazards that can occur.

“Thank you, Ashley!! Your care of our 2 cats and little parakeet was wonderful. It made for a more relaxing time away for us knowing you were there. Instructions (many little details) were followed perfectly, as one cat needed some special care. We will not hesitate to call Ashley again when we need thoughtful and attentive pet care!”

About: My house was home for 4-5 doggies during holidays for the past few years. I have the flexibility to walk/feed/check in on fur babies. I can teach some basic tricks. I am currently taking a sabbatical from my 9-5. While exploring other careers, would love to care for animals on the side. I have a chihuahua that absolutely loves big doggies. If your dogs love other dogs, I would be happy to introduce my dog to them, if they love their space I will have my dog stay home. I would prefer to care for animals at client's home. My place is an option for emergency situations. I can feed them, walk them, play with them. Teach them some basic tricks.

About: As a mom, caring comes naturally for me. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after a member of your family, and that's exactly how Ill treat your pet- with patience, love and plenty of attention. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Pet care fits perfectly with my routine because I work for myself, which gives me the flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide personalized care. My daughter is busy with school, sports, work, etc, so I have the extra time and energy to devote to caring for your pets. At home , I care for my pets the same way I would care for yours, with love structure, and lots of attention. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, included, and part of the family. My pets follow me around the house everywhere I go:) I keep a clean, comfortable environment, maintain routines, and make sure pets get plenty of play, exercise, affection and companionship.

About: I have grown up around dogs, having two of my own throughout my childhood. During Covid my family adopted a puppy and I played an integral part in training her. I have a love for animals and would love the opportunity to help watch over them while you are away. I'm currently working full time but your pet would be alone for no more than 4 hours at a time, and I am available both on weekdays and the weekends. I am a very clean and organized person who has a love for animals and will give your pet the love and care it deserves.

“Chris did a great job with our kitties. Everything was clean, including the litter box. I highly recommend her!”

About: Let your pet have a vacation too! 🐾 I’m an experienced pet sitter who operates a cattle and horse ranch, so I’m confident caring for animals of all sizes, from small dogs to extra-large breeds, farm dogs, horses, and livestock. Safety is always my #1 priority. I have experience with high-energy pets, separation anxiety, special needs, and different temperaments. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. Pets are family, and I’ll care for yours like they’re my own. ❤️ No breed or size restrictions! I have a flexible schedule. I am available for overnights , and long term caretaking as well. . . . . . . . . Safety and a comfortable environment is my top priority when taking care of pets. I take extra time and patience to make sure your pet is comfortable with me.

About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) My 1 year old will be accompanying me to any potential jobs, so if you know your pet is not good with kids please let me know. She will have as little access as possible either way, she will most likely be in her stroller. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. I would love to help in any way that I can. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

About: I have been dog-walking and pet sitting for nearly half my life! In my home town many locals knew me for my dog walking ‘business’ and helping out those in need. I am a student at central and I would love to add time with nearby furry friends into my schedule. I am confident in my ability to work with clients on this. I am used to working with clients on what specifically their pet needs. For some it’s longer walks and for others it’s a special treat before bed. Whatever your pet needs I will be there to give to them.

About: Hello! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. For every dog sitting and walking adventure I offer, your pup is treated just like one of my own! Living in the beautiful Cascade mountains there are many fun walking and hiking opportunities I can offer. Being an active outdoor enthusiast I can take on the most ambitious of fur friends! I am able to visit your permanent or vacation home and administer any special food/medication needs multiple times a days if necessary. If there is specific training you are working on I am more than able to stay consistent with their needs. I have shown in obedience, agility and showmanship and have attended numerous obedience classes. I am a firm believer of positive reinforcement/encouragement types of training. Whatever level of experience your dog is at, I can accommodate. Willingness to clean up any messes/accidents your pup may have. (Cleaning supplies not included) I have bred and raised puppies, so any puppies are more than welcome. I personally have two dogs at the moment, a 3 year old Pitbull and a very exuberant 5 year old Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie mix. My past pups were Yorkshire Terriers, a German Shephard, Pit Bull and a Dalmatian. The range of dog attitudes I've handled makes me the perfect fit for any of your fur babies! I recently have become a cat mom as well. Two years with our current indoor cat and lots of experience feeding out outdoor barn cats/kittens. If you happen to live on a farm, I also have tons of experience with raising goats and chickens as I have my own. I look forward to your meeting you and your animals companions!

“The pup's loved Ashlynn and were excited to see her. I'm looking forward to booking her again so I won't need to worry when away”
