5. Beckie B.

“Can’t say enough nice things about Emma, but I’ll try… She’s professional, extremely communicative, and most importantly, our dog loves her! Emma made leaving for the weekend a totally stress free experience, by following our instructions to a T and sending tons of happy pictures. She was just GREAT and we’ll definitely be hiring her again!”
9. Beka B.
“Beka has stayed at my house with my dog and cat twice now. They absolutely love her and are so calm when I return home. Not only does she take fantastic care of my pets, but she looks after my house and cleans up everything after herself so it’s as if she wasn’t there (she even washed the sheets and remade the bed)! I highly recommend her and will be booking future stays with her. Very trustworthy, caring, and kind!”
10. Marie M.
“I was extremely nervous leaving my home and puppy in the care of a complete stranger. If you’re reading reviews, I’m guessing you feel the same way. Marie was absolutely amazing! She treated Olive like she was her own family member providing plenty of stimulation and activities. The communication was excellent, sending photos and videos regularly and comfortable asking questions as needed. I never once worried about Olive and was able to relax and truly enjoy my vacation knowing she was receiving the utmost care from Marie. Olive can’t wait for Marie to come back again!”
11. Alexis B.
“Alexis was fantastic when she dogsat our Dempsey! We were worried about vacationing for two weeks abroad, but she set all of our concerns at ease and was the perfect sitter for our pup. She messaged us frequently to let us know how he was doing and kept us up to date on our house, as well. It was spotless when we got home, and Dempsey was the calmest I've ever seen him upon our return from a trip. We would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dogsitter.”

16. Jordan G.
“Jordan was great and enabled me to leave my 16 1/2 year old Lhasa Apso at home stress free so I could unplug and enjoy a vacation for the first time in years. She was great with providing updates and following Mischa’s special care instructions with her medications.”
17. Patrick H.

20. Leah S.
About: I have been pet sitting and walking since I was in college. I graduated from Washington State University in 2021 and work full-time in commercial real estate. I have experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, needs, and histories. I am comfortable administering medication if needed. I love animals and do this work to make some money on the side, but also because it brings me so much joy! I am available to provide frequent potty breaks and walks. When sitting, I am happy to stay at the pet's home to accommodate to all their needs (especially pets and cuddles). For overnight stays at clients' homes, I am happy to discuss any needs of the household and go over your expectations for my time in your space. I currently work full-time and am available on weekdays after 5pm and weekends for house sitting, walking, and drop-in visits. However, I am flexible so please reach out if you need care outside of these hours. Depending on your pet's needs, I will make sure to follow any special instructions provided, such as medication schedules or dietary restrictions, and keep their living environment clean and safe. I communicate closely to ensure all your expectations and requirements are met.
