About: My wife and I are self employed and looking to make extra money caring for your fur babies! We both have 13+ years experience caring for pets and currently have 3 furry friends of our own. We chose to do this together to be able to help as many families as we can and give you the peace of mind you deserve while away. We are familiar with many different breeds and are comfortable with all sizes and ages. Whether you are in need of a house sitter or just a walker for a day, feel free to message us and we’d be more than happy to help you out! Hope to hear from you soon! We are both self employed so our schedule is flexible. We have the freedom to work around all pet care needs so your pet is priority. We do not offer pet care in our home, as we value the comfort of our elderly Bulldog. We offer care in your home and would follow all instructions you give us and treat your pets as we would our own.

“She did an amazing job with our dog! Often went above and beyond (staying longer than required, dealing with an excited, jumping puppy) and was amazing at communication, updates, and pictures. Definitely better pictures than I'm ever able to get of my dog. Highly recommend!”

Rebekah L.

“Sarah did a wonderful job walking my dog. She was always on time and my dog was so happy to see her.”

Denise C.

“Tara came to our rescue when our regular sitter fell through at the last minute. We were overjoyed after the meet & greet to have someone local that clearly “gets dogs”. Plan to book with her in the future, and are so grateful for the daily updates and photos. Thanks Tara and Leo/Khali look forward to walks with you again soon!”

About: My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm a dog trainer in the Grays Harbor area. I have been successfully working with owners to rehabilitate fearful and/or reactive dogs for almost a decade now. I have also been a competitive dog agility instructor for 7 years. My own dog is Oakley, a Miniature American Shepherd, and he helps me with fearful or reactive dog clients by being a neutral dog with great communication skills. Before becoming a dog trainer full time, I worked at a dog daycare in Mukilteo for 3 years. It was a great experience and gave me a lot of knowledge about dog behavior and handling large groups of dogs. I compete in seven different dog sports with my own dogs, but we love agility and flyball most. I am available whenever I'm not already teaching classes or at a competition. Scheduling is open as we just moved to the new area from Seattle. I am experienced with dogs who are difficult or nervous around strangers. I use scientifically backed, LIMA guided dog training to guide dogs through their feelings as gently as I am capable while accomplishing learning. In any case, I like to engage with dogs in a way that's most comfortable for them. Each dog is different! I am not comfortable taking unfamiliar dogs off leash outside of the home or yard for safety reasons, but I am happy to work on this skill with them if requested!

About: My goal is to provide the best dog sitting service in Mason Country. Read on for how I set out to be that special caregiver for your pets. I came to pets and pet sitting “later in life,” and discovered, with great gratitude, a passion and a gift for taking care of your precious animal companions… because that is what they are, for you and for me. I’m not a casual caregiver, or a friend; I’m not walking your dog or feeding, or talking to them, as a favor to you or as a part-time job or hobby. Nor am I in a hurry to get out of your home, or to ‘fit you in’ between errands. I own my own pet sitting business and I'm going through here to get started in a new area for new clients. My total focus is your two most precious possessions: Your pets and your property…all day long, usually 7 days a week! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter, dedicated to the loving care and the details of dogs! I believe that pets should be as happy with a sitter as they are when their owners are at home (or close to it!). As one dog owner put it: “I enjoy your notes immensely. I feel like you know my dogs as well as I do after a few short days.”… The most important goals for me are providing a consistently high quality of pet care service and developing lasting relationships with Mason County pet owners. Here are just a few of the ways that I can make a quality difference in your pets’ (and your) lives: Details I’m a detail-oriented business person who knows how important it is to follow through, in a meticulous way, the instructions you give me for the daily care of your dogs as well as your home. When I mull over situations with your pets and think about how important your home is to you, I always ask myself: “What would they do if they were here? How would they want me to proceed”? If there is any question in my mind, I contact you before taking action. I document all my actions for you, in my daily text or email, so that you don’t have to wonder or worry about the quality of care your pets and your home have received while you’re gone. As one client put it: “My goal in going with a professional pet sitter was…wanting the best for our two dogs while we were away. Carrie left it “camps without a trace,” returning the house to you as you left it. To list all the tasks she does to keep things ticking while we’re gone is more work than I want, so let’s just say, hire this intelligent woman who takes pride in her business and find out the true meaning of “getting away.” High Standard I maintain Open Communication at all times. Great communication is the key to all successful relationships. I always email clients a confirmation of their pet sitting arrival and departure dates/times, so there are no missed appointments or misunderstandings. I also write detailed daily email/text describing your pets’ activities and behaviors, including any changes I notice in their eating or sleeping or other routines – in addition to all their fun and funny ‘adventures’ when you’re gone! The level of communication I provide you, before you go and while you’re away, is an important part of my pet sitting service, demonstrating the observation skills and the focus I bring as caregiver for your pets and home! It's my main career to take care of your pets on a daily basis. So I have all the time in the world to spend time with them. I will be caring for your pet (s) in their own home where they are more comfortable than being in a boarding place. Have a wonderful day. Hope to hear from you soon

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 from small to big to giant, they are adorable and need love,attention, and someone to play with I'm currently working part-time in sales and I need extra money so I thought since I love animals let's do this because animals are my safe space I have a fenced yard, my room door is always closed so no other animals in the house mess with my cat or yours.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I offer calm, full-time attention in a quiet home with a large yard and a peaceful resident dog. I’m confident administering medications, as I regularly care for my own pets' health needs. I understand the unique needs of both senior pets and spirited cats, and I’m happy to provide gentle walks, playtime, and lots of affection. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. I am currently home all day and available for walks and love. For walks and home visits Tuesday - Friday I am available on a twice daily basis. Sat, Sun, and Monday I am available any time. While I don't offer pet care in my home at this time, I may in the future. We live in a bright spacious apartment near Briggs YMCA

“Veronica has been amazing!! She was available very last minute (the day before) when I needed someone to walk my newly adopted dog. She’s been an amazing communicator, willing to do the little things like wipe my dogs paws after a walk or use the same command words that I use for my dogs. The photos of her walks are an extra touch that warms my heart. Would definitely recommend Veronica for your animal needs.”

About: I've worked with a variety of animals throughout my life and dogs have taken up the majority of that experience. I've lived with dogs and cats my whole life, helped neighbors with their animals, both with house visits and making sure their animal friends get proper exercise. I just finished working at a dog and cat kennel that I was with for a year before starting college, there I learned how to handle every size dog, proper grooming, styling, exerciseing, training, behavior modification and observation, medication treatments and how too handle emergency situations. I'm at student at The Evergreen State College and currently have classes three days a week, I'm looking to work with animals while I learn more about them. I'm very flexible and can work with your needs. I will ensure your animal friends have a proper and comfy place while your gone, insuring your pets have a good climate, don't get too cold or too warm. I will wash and refill both the food and water when needed, provide brushing for dogs with longer coats. Take them outside if allowed for backyard runs, play time, emotional support and supervision. Clients can choose to recieve updates on their pets by text, call, or email. Applies for dogs, cats and any other animal you may have.

About: Pets are not just an accessory to show off or toss to the side at the end of the day. They are an everyday cast member to our lives and a part of our families! My love for animals has stemmed from a lifetime of being around animals growing up in a farm town and I will ensure your furry family members feel loved, safe and cared for while you’re away! I currently work part time so my schedule is very flexible! I would be able to adjust my part time work as needed to better fit your schedule if need be! I have a fenced backyard for your puppers/doggos to run around and play in as well as a decent sized covered porch area for us to hang out and cool off under from playtime! If you crate trained your animals I do not have any crates at my home so if you would like them to remain in crates during an overnight stay I would ask that you bring a crate please and thank you! In clients home I will care for your furry ones to ensure they don’t feel as if they are unsafe in their own home!

About: My pets are my four legged kids. They aren't just animals. They are treated like another member of the family. I love all the animals. It's a part of my daily life. My animals are well taken care of, spoiled if you will. My dog gets special cookies from the pet store to encourage him to eat. With lots of love and affection, attention and exercise. I pay close attention to the special dietary needs of the animals placed in my care.

About: I have 3 dogs of my own; my old man toy poodle Chai, big baby Baxter, and sweet lil mama Maisie! All of them are non aggressive, and love new friends. My husband is military, so as we travel, I have worked on rescuing and rehabilitating animals in need. I’ve been doing kennel boarding/daycare for some time now, but am looking to specialize in giving individualized love, care, and attention to each of my fuzzy friends! When caring for your pets, I treat them how I would my own fur babies! I have experience in a wide range of animals, energy level, personality, and emergency situations. I offer socialization training with my own babies, so they can have amazing friends to play with! I am working towards an animal CPR & FA certification, as well as taking courses to become a certified dog trainer. I’m currently working from home, so I have plenty of time for taking care of your fur babies! I do regular potty breaks every 2 hours with scheduled activities throughout the day. All my kiddos are friendly and loving towards every new friend they meet! Your baby will be accepted as one of family in a well structured environment. Depending on every pups personal preference, I do slow distanced introductions and eventually close the gap till everyone is comfortable. Once introduced as friends, we can do all activities as a group!

About: I have cared for my own dogs since I was a child, and have spent time petsitting for neighbors and friends as well. I worked at a dog daycare for a year, which I loved. I'm not working right now so I have time on my hands to care for your dogs! I am not available on weekends or on Wednesday evenings as I have class. When I house sit for you I am able to do whatever it is your dog is used to, whether it's playing with toys, going on walks or running in the yard, I'll be sure to give your pet what they need at all times.
