“Leah kept my boys happy and safe while we were gone, she left the house in clean condition after three days of staying and I am so appreciative! Her friendliness, good communication, and affection for our little fur balls all made her a great sitter while we were away. Thank you Leah!”
“Taylor was incredible. This was my first time having someone who was not family check on my cats and I was a little bit nervous. Taylor came over with a list of questions and was so thorough in our initial meeting, my partner and I instantly knew that our cats were safe in their hands. While we were gone Taylor went above and beyond to give our cats love and attention uniquely for both of their personalities. We will absolutely be using their services again in the future.”

About: I have two shelties; one is very energetic and the other is very laid back and calmer. I have had a dog in my house since I was an infant. My family and I adopted our second dog two years ago and it was a huge transition once we learned she knew Spanish commands, not English. She is doing very well now:) Dog's always gravitate towards me and can sense I'm a good human:) I am in the medical field and only work 1 day a week and currently going to nursing school, so the extra income is helpful. I just moved to Spokane Washington in October and would love to find some families who want a recurring sitter or someone who just needs help one time. I have been dog sitting for 7 years now and i love every second! I’ve been with a handful of families through this app where we have built a relationship and have continued to use me in the future. I know how to bathe, walk, run, play with, and even snuggle your pups. I'm a very fast learner, so if there is something new you'd want me to do with your dog, I'd be happy to learn. I would love to be able to spend time with the most important member of your family, your dog. Thank you for taking interest in learning more about me! I am in nursing school and have a couple hours a day where I’m gone for school. With one day of a clinical. I hope we can still make it work with this schedule! I work usually one day a week as a nurse tech as well. Your dog’s safety is number one. I had a family that had coyotes late at night that would roam around and I would need to assist them while outside at night to go to the bathroom. I’m fully capable and prepared to keep your dogs safe whatever it takes.
