House Sitting East Renton Highlands

“Natalia is always great with a household of 3 pets. She caters to each individual’s needs and befriends everyone! She is super great with taking care of the space and brings in any boxes and mail for us while we are away. We get regular updates with videos and photos of our pets and we couldn’t be happier to have her help us!”

It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, and they were happy and well cared for when we got back. We’d definitely trust Janine to watch them again and highly recommend her.”

“Kaitlin was wonderful! She stayed in our home with our two pups for a night while we took a family trip to Portland! She was timely, tidy, and most of all caring of both dogs, one of whom is old and requires some additional assistance. She even helped keep our Elf on the Shelf moving so when we came home she was in a different place! ? Our fur babies and kiddo were all happy when we arrived home and all went smoothly! Best peace of mind a mama could ask for!!”

About: 🐾 What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, along with my hands-on experience in training, grooming, and behavior management. Growing up, I helped care for a Schipperke and later two Chihuahuas, where I developed a love for daily walks, grooming, and building strong relationships with dogs. As I got older, I wanted to expand my experience and raise a high-energy working breed, which led me to my Australian Shepherd, Bailey. 🐶 Since bringing Bailey home as a puppy 7 years ago, I’ve participated in obedience training, at-home training, 4-H, showing, herding, and swimming activities. I also learned how to groom her myself and developed a strong understanding of canine body language and behavior. Through raising her from puppyhood to adulthood, I learned how to recognize what dogs are communicating through their actions, energy levels, and routines. ❤️ I later welcomed a second Australian Shepherd, Willow, who has a completely different personality. She’s vocal, energetic, and more sensitive to certain environments, which taught me that every dog has unique needs and triggers. This experience helped me become adaptable and attentive to each dog’s individual personality. 🎓 In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve helped owners work on puppy house manners, basic obedience, and simple tricks. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from small companion breeds to larger breeds such as Labradors and German Shepherd mixes. ✨ Whether your dog needs an energetic walking partner, a patient sitter, reinforcement of good manners, or simply someone who understands their unique personality, I strive to provide care that makes them feel safe, understood, and loved. Pet care is already a major part of my daily and weekly routine. As the owner of two Australian Shepherds and a young cat, I’m used to planning my schedule around feeding times, exercise, playtime, grooming, and providing companionship. 🐶 My dogs receive daily walks and enrichment activities, and I regularly brush and groom them to keep them comfortable and healthy. My cat also gets dedicated playtime and attention throughout the day. Caring for pets isn’t something I fit in when I have spare time—it’s already an important part of my lifestyle. Because I’m accustomed to caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels, adding pet sitting, drop-in visits, or walks fits naturally into my routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on a long walk, playing fetch, providing enrichment, or simply keeping a pet company while their owner is away. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I start by learning about each pet’s schedule, personality, preferences, and any special instructions. I want to know things like feeding routines, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, areas they are allowed in, and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. For dogs, I provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, and plenty of companionship. I’m experienced with both high-energy dogs, like my Australian Shepherds, and more laid-back dogs who prefer a slower pace. I also reinforce house manners and any training routines owners are already working on. For cats, I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, and attention based on their comfort level. As a cat owner myself, I understand that some cats love to socialize while others prefer their space, and I adjust my care accordingly. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and body language. After raising dogs and cats with very different personalities, I’ve learned how important it is to recognize when a pet is excited, nervous, tired, overstimulated, or simply wants affection. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing a safe environment, consistent care, lots of love, and regular updates to owners so they can feel confident while they’re away.

“We LOVE how much Shalindra loves our dogs, and they love her! She keeps us thoroughly updated and sends plenty of pictures and videos so we know they’re doing well. She is someone who you know just adores spending time with dogs, which helps us know she’s enjoying her time with our pups, even if one of our dogs is insane haha. Highly recommend Shalindra if you want someone to truly enjoy hanging out with your pups and update you along the way.”

“Ravan was awesome! She took such good care of my dog while I was away, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She took him for walks and to the park. Even my plants were watered!! I will absolutely book with her again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring sitter.”

“Jessie was absolutely wonderful with our 4.5-month-old puppy, Zara! She’s a very active little one, and we came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup who was so excited and full of energy. Jessie went above and beyond—from thoughtfully adjusting Zara’s treats for safety, to making sure she had plenty of play and enrichment while we were away. She also kept a detailed journal of Zara’s daily activities, which we really appreciated—it was so reassuring to read through and see how she spent her time. She was incredibly respectful of our home, even taking the time to wash the sheets and towels before she left. It’s clear she genuinely cared about Zara’s well-being and comfort, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jessie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Brandi as our Rover dog watcher. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. She took the time to understand our dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Throughout the stay, Brandi kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. When we returned, everything was in great shape and our dog was relaxed and content—a true sign of excellent care. We would absolutely trust Brandi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
