Pet Sitting Cle Elum

“Kirsten was extremely professional and also clearly loves animals. She showed up to meet our dog before the planned sitting and went over all the details which made us confident in having her take care of our dog. We would definitely recommend her and plan to use her for future visits to Roslyn.”

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: 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 experience caring for animals my entire life. I have had a cat since I was very young and have cared for many dogs throughout my life. More recently I have been helping my little sister take care of her two ferrets as well, which are some of the coolest animals I have taken care of. I love to encourage adventure and curiosity on walks with pets and find fun places for them to explore. I have 2 cats of my own and find so much enjoyment in caring for them! Animals just know how to brighten your day and I would like to brighten theirs as well! I am trustworthy, reliable, and flexible and can’t wait to meet you and your furbabies! I currently take contracted positions in the medical field and between jobs would have the ability to dedicate my time to your pets and their needs! When I am working, I typically have 4 full days in a row off to spend with your animals. My home is mobile so I have the ability to come to you wherever you may be. My cats live with me in my mobile home and can be completely separated from your animals & your home.

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.

“Macken was great with our Pup!! He came for check-ins and walked him Too! Highly recommend him ??”

About: Hi! I have grown up around cats and dogs my whole life and have one cat of my own. I am experienced in pet sitting for several families with multiple dogs and cats over the years. I have also cared for cats with special needs, a dog with diabetes requiring daily insulin injections, and wound care for pets. I am willing to do other household tasks upon request such as watering plants/gardens, light housework, etc. I have a flexible hybrid full time work schedule that allows me to work from home as needed. This lets me drop in as needed to care for your pets. I am also available for overnight stays if needed. I have cared for pets in many different home environments. I can take pets on long walks as needed or let them exercise in your yard if permitted. Care will be specialized to your pets needs.

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.

“I highly recommend Alexis ! My dog received the care and attention he needed, and I didn’t have to worry about him. Alexis is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. You will not be disappointed!”

“Madison took lovely care of my cat and sent me cute updates. She was also super communicative before I left regarding when to exchange keys, etc. Highly recommend!”

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: I have been a pet owner for about 3 years now. When I was younger I would care for others pets and enjoy spending time with the strays that lived on my street. I enjoy going on walks, hikes and taking naps according to my own doggos they believe I keep them active, safe and well fed. As I am a work from home dog momma, I have the time and availability to keep your pets company when you cannot. I believe all pets need to be treated with respect and will offer them all the love they need. On top of that my doggos would love to make more doggo friends. I currently work from home. I am available at all times and adjust my schedule to yours. I like to go on walks in the morning, afternoon and night time. When it is the first time to work with a dog I am not familiar with I always keep them on a leash when taking them out to potty in non fenced areas. When going on walks I like to go to places where dogs can run around freely and safely.

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

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!

About: Growing up we had dogs that I took running and on long walks. I have had personally referred housesits for decades, ranging in types of dogs/pets. I am currently transitioning from a long term employment to a project based/contract job base and traveling full time. My schedule is variable and flexible. I am also transitioning 25+ years of word-of-mouth house-sitting into online platforms while traveling full time. I look forward to connecting! I make sure the dogs are safe, well cared for, played with and caring for their physical needs through following described feeding and water schedule and administering any medications in owners instructions.
