Lacey was such a good caretaker for our pup!! She has a wonderful demeanor and clearly is experienced with working with dogs. Lacey was responsive, flexible, communicated consistently with us, and most importantly, very reliable!

Victoria was great! Attentive, communicative, timely, and most importantly she gave the dogs really good quality outside time— threw a ball for Vesa and tried to engage juni (who probably just wanted to get out of the cold since hunting wasn’t on the table)— the dogs look happy. We appreciate you!

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs, and I have taken care of cats. Our family has had 6 dogs and 2 cats over the years. We currently have 4 at home now while I am at college. I take care of 1 of the four dogs regularly when I am at home and before I left for college. The month before I left for college we got a puppy that I helped take care of regularly, especially when my siblings were at High School. I took her out very often during the day, played with her, and fed her 3 times a day, while also taking care of my dog. When my siblings' High School started, I began to care for all 4 dogs, and made sure they had food, water and regular outside time to get out their energy. My experience says 8 years because our oldest dog now is 8 years old, almost 9. I helped out when I was younger, but had full responsibility once we got another dog (the one I take care of regularly) 7 years ago. I also have experience with cats, as we had one for 4 years. I have also helped out to rescue feral kittens and know how to be gentle with scared cats. As for pet sitting, I have done jobs requiring 2 week house sitting while in my Hometown, and had jobs that require me to come and feed the pets during meal times. I know how to go on walks with dogs, as I have biked and walked with my own dogs and others I have pet-sat many times. I am currently a student at Central Washington University and an athlete. My free times are on Weekends (Friday-Saturday), although I will let you know if I am busy on a Saturday from a sport responsibility. I am able to do drop in appointments during evenings on Weekdays or early mornings. When I am in my Hometown for the summer, all days of the week are free. As for pet care in my client's home, I can accommodate to your needs. I have most often taken care of the dog inside the house for food and water and take the dog out for walks or in the yard to go to the bathroom.

About: I have lived in multi-pet households for over ten years (although pet-less at the moment due to lease rules) often taking the lead on care and attention needs! I love energy matching pets while also being attentive to their health and welfare needs. I am the go-to sitter in my group, often day-sitting or stay-over care every 1-2 months. I have very open availability right now and can flex to meet your needs! Let me know what works best for you and your pet! While caring for animals, I find you need to fine-tune your care to the individual. Some pets love to play and will fetch a ball for hours if you keep throwing. Some pets need oversight while eating so they feel comfortable, while some would eat the whole house if left alone! I also have experience with pets with health conditions and special needs, as a long term dog I often care for has a seizure condition. Let me know your pets specific needs and I will make it happen.

About: I grew up in 4-H and FFA raising and showing all sorts of livestock. Dogs always being a major part of it. I have had the pleasure of taking care of dogs from puppy stages to an acient 16 yr old pug and understand the different responsibilities that come at each stage. I love all animals and will do my absolute best to build the necessary bond with each and every pet I come across. I currently own a border collie who is amazing! I work full time M-F 8am to 4pm with necessary breaks to take my dog out. I work from home most of the week. I am also very flexible, let me know what you need and I am sure we can figure something out. I have a large unfenced yard. I take my dog out at least once a day for no less than an hour. I have parks near, a great neighborhood to walk and a couple nice trails near me. I find it imprtant to switch things up so the dogs do not get bored. I have one dog, a border collie and chickens fenced in my backyard. If your dog is not chicken friendly let me know and maybe we can find a way to make it work. I currently work from home 4-5 days a week and am home most weekends. I am available to let dogs out as often as they need during the day. I have a fenced backyard that is full of dog toys and a possible agility course. My dog and I take an hour walk daily but can adjust to your dogs needs.

About: I recently lost my senior dog at 15 years old. I’m looking to provide that same love, patient, routined care to others pets. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to focus on the care your pet needs. I have experience in specialized diets, medications, and mobility support. I also love to walk and would be happy to take your pet for sniffaris. My current full time job is remote work, allowing me plenty of flexibility, particularly if your pet stays in my home. If need be I can also work from others homes, if pets prefer to stay in their home. I live on the second floor of a quiet fourplex, my apartment is accessed via 14 steps on the outside of my building. I care for pets by bringing them on neighborhood walks, and live across the street from a park.

About: I have been a cat-owner and dog-owner since I was about 5 years old. Additionally, I have help to care for others pets, from family to friends to community members. I am quick to learning a pets' habits and preferences, doing whatever makes them and their parents most comfortable. I've helped care for puppies that are still in training, old dogs with younger siblings who have varying energies, and cats who need daily medicine and attentive care. I am happy to help with any pet care needed if given time to fully understand a pet's needs and if the furry friend is comfortable with me to do so. While I work full-time, my work schedule is flexible to fit to your and your pets' needs. I am fully available on weekends, unless otherwise stated. And I am happy to do early morning or late evening check-ins or walks if needed. I am an attentive pet-owner who likes to stick to a schedule for both my and my pets' benefit. My priority goes into making sure my pets are taken care of before taking care of myself, and keeping a consistent care and grooming schedule. That care is given ten-fold when I am looking over another person's furry baby. I adjust my schedule and routine to pets' needs, and provide daily or weekly reports to the parents so they are put at ease of their pets' safety and comfort.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and pets for friends, family and neighbors! Including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and birds. My own bulldog, Brodie will always be my favorite though! I’ve cared for all ages of dogs, from young pups who need a lot of check ins to senior dogs who may need more patience and dietary requirements to anxious dogs who worry when their loved ones are gone. All are loved and all end up in my camera roll! (I won’t bother you if you want but I love to send pics to check in!) I currently work part time as a barista and am enrolled at CWU, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I miss my pets so much back home so I am so excited to get to care for yours! I walk shelter dogs every Friday and currently that is where I am getting my pet fix but I can always use more companion time! I keep pets safe by making sure when I enter or leave that doors and windows are closed up and if we go outside it in a fenced area or we are walking with a leash. This ensures no accidental excitements that end up in a lost pet. I can easily crate your pet if that is your preference!

About: I have taken care of animals for 20 years. Pets ranging from big to small. I have cared for animals with specific health needs and intense care. Puppies, pythons, cats, senior dogs, blue eyed skinks and sometimes they were all in the same home! I have free time after work. I work part time and so would love to have a visit or walk your pet then. Also some weekend availability will be offered. Can’t wait to meet your precious pets! In my home they will be treated as if my own and all their needs will be met. I am very in tune with animals and my fenced yard gives them ample room to play.

About: I have experience with all ages of all animals! I have experience with special needs and diets, and am willing to follow specific guidelines for your pet. I also have experience administering medications. My goal is to make sure your best friend is taken care and well loved! I am a college student working part time, so I am available early mornings, and late nights! Flexibility is a key factor of my schedule and will allow me to help you. For dogs, I have a park right outside my apartment, and many trails around apartment complex. For cats, I have toys, a cat tree, and other high spaces for them to be themselves.

Ruby watched our girl Luna while we were away for a work trip. She made Luna feel very comfortable, and my husband and I were relieved knowing our girl was being watched by an incredibly trustworthy person. Ruby also brought in packages for us and notified us where she left them in our place. We highly recommend Ruby and will be having her pet sit for us again!
