Jayde was amazing. She helped us last minute when our normal sitter wasn’t available. She gave both our boys the cuddles, scritches, love and attention they need while we were away. Thank you so much Jayde! We appreciate you!

Jennifer was a fun, attentive, affectionate and responsible caregiver for my 7 month old kitten. She played with her a lot, fed her and cleaned out her litter regularly, and sent me lots of pictures and messages updating me on my kitten’s days. She also went above and beyond on cleaning my house and laundering the linens before I got home. Totally unnecessary, but very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her services.

We hired Meghan to watch our pets in our home. She was a respectful guest and took wonderful care of our pets! She went above and beyond working with us to reschedule our travel plans due to inclement weather. She provided excellent communication, with lots of updates and pictures of how our pets were doing. We would recommend her to anyone and would love to work with her again. Thanks Meghan!

About: Hello! We are Libby and Arghya ("Argo"). We both work from home and love having dogs with us. We have several years of pet care experience for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. We were pet parents to three dogs who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge now: two Dachshunds and one Pitbull. Our pitbull was dog-reactive, so we are very comfortable with dogs who may have unique behavior needs. All of our dogs lived well into their senior years, so we have a soft spot for senior dogs especially. In addition to boarding at our house, we are open to pet sitting in your home if our schedule allows. We work from home full time and can easily incorporate walks into our schedule. Our work schedules are flexible and outside potty breaks can be as often as needed. We have a yard that is completely fenced-in with a 6-foot privacy fence. Our whole home is dog friendly, complete with dog beds in just about every room.

About: I have been taking training, looking after, and loving pets for as long as I can remember. My grandmother, a liscenced trainer, has taught me everything I know from puppy care, crate training, leash training, to medication administration and food aggression. I have also had a lot of experience with rescues and more skiddish dogs. I have cared for dogs ranging from the ages of 3 weeks old to 15 years old. I live in a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment with a fenced backyard. I’m currently employed at FedEx Ground located in Auburn ,WA. I work early in the mornings, from around 2am-9am ,Thursday-Monday so I still have the entire day to go for walks, trips to the dog parks and many beautiful hiking trails! I am also very flexible so most of the time I will be able to make something work for both parties. Everyday I take my dog out for a quick walk before I leave to go to work, at that time she also gets an apple, refill on water and her morning vitamins/treats. When I get home I let her go potty then we go over routine training, with many treats of course, then to the dog park. On occasion we stop to get a pup cup and coffee on the way home. She then has dinner and her nighttime vitamins, I brush her teeth an it’s bedtime.

Caitlin was amazing. She took great care of our dogs and home. We felt really good knowing that she was here watching over everything. Caitlin sent lots of photos and updates and was willing to stay a bit longer when we thought our flight would be delayed. We certainly hope that she'll sit for us again.
