Pet Sitting in Dewatto

“This is the first time we had to leave our three kitties for a trip. Ariana kept us updated during her visits, which made us worry about the kitties less. My boy is skittish, but it seemed like Ariana went with his flow and made sure he didn’t miss his meals. One of my girls had an allergy flair during our trip, making one of her eyes inflamed. Ariana cleaned her eyes and gave her eyedrops. We really appreciated that, and we’re sure our girl appreciated it as well. When we got home, we found our kitties’ food containers washed and drying in the dish rack. We didn’t expect Ariana do that, but it was very much appreciated as well. We’ll definitely ask her to watch out kitties again!”

About: I have recent experience with senior dogs and puppies. I am exceptional at keeping to routines/schedules. Also, I am not afraid of poop! Especially if your pup isn’t quite potty trained, no worries! I currently have 2 cairn terriers named Tilly and Lou Lou. We recently lost our almost 15 year old, Boo, and we miss her terribly every day. I had a childhood family dog for almost 14 years. She was an Australian Shepherd named Angel. I absolutely love dogs and how pure and unconditional their love is. I also have experience caring for children and people with disabilities, and I have a BA in psychology. I am willing to care for all breeds and sizes of dogs. I am currently a stay at home dog mom, so I am open for walks almost any weekday in the mornings or afternoons as long as I still have time to care for my own babies! I am happy to pick up your dog at your home to go on walks, or to drop in if they need potty, water, food, or play breaks. Although dogs typically naturally are comfortable in my presence, I would love to meet them to become comfortable ahead of time so they trust me.

“Tabutha was so wonderful! She is great with communication and has full attention to detail. She is wonderful with the pups and I am so happy I found her! Thank you so much Tabutha!”

“Clarrissa really helped my dog warm up to her quickly. That is not always an easy thing with this particular dog. She has great communication with me too.”

“Jesse was great with our cat and she warmed up to him pretty quickly. I appreciated Jesse's professionalism and flexibility. I will definitely book Jesse for dates going forward and I would highly recommend his services.”

About: I believe that pets are family—and treat them as such. With over 15 years of pet sitting and rescue experience, I've had the privilege of caring for countless dogs and cats from all walks of life. My fully fenced property offers more than an acre of safe, active play space, providing a private and peaceful retreat where your companion can feel right at home. Whether you're seeking overnight boarding, daytime care, walks, or in-home check-ins, I am here with personalized attention and a deep respect for every animal’s unique needs. I have worked with rescues across the country, rehabilitating pets with social anxiety, special health conditions, and senior animals requiring extra TLC. Compassion and safety are at the heart of everything I do. I love dogs—but more importantly, understand them. When they're in my care, they're part of our pack. I am fully available for all potential schedules. I work from home and have flexible hours that I balance with commitments to volunteer work. Happy to meet your needs. I have a fully fenced yard and the ability to create separate and safe spaces for each of the pets in our home. I have the capability to give space when your pet needs some quiet time and the opportunity for them to socialize and play when desired.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over a decade, starting with my own beagle who taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and love. I also volunteered as a dog walker at the Kitsap Humane Society, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including those who were shy, energetic, or needed extra care. What sets me apart is my calm and confident approach, as well as my ability to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between—and I always treat every pet like they’re family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I plan my schedule around giving pets the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or extended stay, I make sure pets are never rushed and always cared for with patience and love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow any instructions closely, maintain clean, pet-friendly spaces, and always keep an eye on their behavior and surroundings. I’m mindful of leash safety, secure environments, and ensuring pets are never exposed to unnecessary stress or risk.

“This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely rebook. I needed someone last minute to do drop by visits, Emily responded quickly, within a few hours we had a visit and I booked right after. Walker was well taken care of and she even kept and eye out on my horses as well. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!”

About: I am a Registered Nurse and a daughter of a Veterinarian. As a young girl I would help my dad on farm calls so have been exposed to all types of animals since a young age. I am athletic and love being outside exploring hikes and trails, especially with a furry friend. I am able to help assist with dog walks, drop in visits, doggy day-care, boarding, medicating, feeding and bathing. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to helping with your dogs needs! I work full time as a RN but looking to help care for furry friends on my days off. I am available all hours of the day on my available days. I do not have a fenced in yard but have area to walk your pet unless you prefer your home. I have a cat and hyper puppy of my own. I can accommodate to your pets needs and treat them like my own.

“Sarah was incredibly professional and friendly throughout the entire appointment. I only showed and explained the layout of my apartment complex once and that was all she needed to complete the check-ins. I really appreciated the many photos she took during each visit, and when her phone was having issues sending me updates, Sarah made sure to respond to my messages ASAP as to let me know what was happening. She really knows how to make friends with a cranky old cat like mine; I was impressed. If I need cat sitter again in the future, Sarah will definitely be at the top of my list.”

About: I have had pets in the family since I was 9 years old, including cats, dogs, hamsters, birds, rats, tarantulas, and fish. I have been a pet sitter for many years while folks have been gone for months at a time, requiring me to live at their residence. I worked with puppies, sick dogs, multiple dogs, bottle fed baby yaks (yes really), and am extremely clean and reliable. I am currently employed part time and have lots of availability as long as pet owners are aware that I could be gone upwards of 8 hours. I am looking for reliable and dependable clients that need long term help. Having a routine is not only good for me, but it is also good for your pet. I provide in home sitting only as I live with my parents and they have their own pets. I am working and have a lot of free time. I hope to find a job working from home and am looking for a new house with a fenced yard! I have a very energetic cattle dog that can be included in playtime. My partner loves all animals and we spend a lot of time with all of our animals.

“James took excellent care of my 2 cats. He took extra effort to play and to fill birdfeeders to keep them happy. He even fed a neighborhood stray. I would certainly book James again.”

“Branden took excellent care of our senior dog and our two cats. Our dog is not often left behind, so we were concerned about how she'd do now that she's older, but Branden had her relaxed and happy, and she did great. The cats always do great with him - lots of fun, lots of great photos. Thank you Branden!”

About: I grew up around dogs of all sizes! I’ve not had the chance to own a dog of my own, but frequently take care of family/friend pets when needed. I can easily adapt to training routines and am an active person who likes to spend time outside. I’m available and wanting to spend my days surrounded by nature and fur babies! I’ve recently relocated to the Peninsula, after living in Seattle, so I will already be spending much of my time on hikes - why not add a fur baby or two to the mix? I’m adaptive and a quick learner - if you have a training routine, I’ll follow it! I realize the stress of leaving your dog at home while you’re on a trip, so I will do everything in my power to make the experience a smooth one. Want update pics? Done. 5 walks a day? Done. Anything you need, let’s talk and see how we can make it happen for your doggo.

“Maralee was great, our cats came out for her and I loved getting the texted photos each day. She has agreed to watch them two more times.”

April R.

“Troy is dependable and friendly.”

Laura R.

“Not only is she flexible, she also goes above and beyond! Our trip got pushed and couldn't make it back to get out animals. We reached out and Abby said she'd make an extra trip out to feed and let our animals out. I cannot tell you the relief and love we have for her 💜💜 the best sitter!!!”

About: Am able to teach your dog’s basic training I can help in potty training. As well as sit, stay, and walking commands if desired. Great understanding that animals such as your dogs or cats are your children just with four legs and more hair. I hope and look forward to seeing you and your animals enjoy long walks outdoors, maybe going swimming in a lake river going to dog parks finding out new animal healthy recipes for snacks learn potty training for the first time or completing how to sit on command with hand or verbal jesters maybe even a foreign language is so desired and experiencing new things. Rain or shine, cold or hot. I will show up and say hello and enjoy the wonderful time I’ll have with your child.
