“Samuel was a wonderful sitter for my fur babies! Highly recommend! Great communication and was flexible with changes in plans. Will definitely be booking him next time I need someone to care for the loves of my life :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life and worked at a pet boarding/daycare center. I’m very outgoing and take pride in my work. I’m available all week. I can work throughout the week during the days and take your dog/dogs for walks and/or just let them outside to go potty I have one medium size dog that loves all animals and would love to play with yours. I don’t have a fence but I have a 25ft 90lb leash to a grass yard for potty.
“Shelly watched both our cat, dog and house while we went on vacation for over 8 days. We came back and the house looked great and our pets looked happy! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, everything from dogs and cats to horses, cows, goats, chickens, and rabbits. I have hands on experience caring for pets and farm animals, and I truly enjoy connecting with each one. What sets me apart is the wide range of animals I’ve cared for and the calm, patient approach I bring to every situation. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including playful puppies and senior animals who need a little extra care. I also understand the importance of routine, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I’m on summer break right now, which means I have plenty of time to give your pet all the love and attention they need! Whether it’s morning, afternoon, evening visits, longer walks or playtime. I’m flexible and ready to fit into your schedule. Safety is my top priority. I follow each pet’s routine carefully to keep them comfortable and secure, making sure their environment is safe and calm. I provide gentle, loving care and stay attentive to their needs.
About: Have raised different breeds of dogs most my life. Have 2 6+ year old lab mixes named Lia & rocky! Can administer medications, treat minor wounds, accommodate sensitive skin or tummies, or cuddle to satisfacción! I’ve dog sat for friends, family, and connections made through work for three years+. I’d consider myself YouTube certified in dog training! Happy hunting! Im currently working part time! Attending college classes online as well. I have afternoons and weekends free for this hobby of mine! I’m fairly flexible to any request as well. I can accommodate to any request from the owner. I’m comfortable with a set potty break, walking, and meal schedule. Can help with any disabilities, allergies, or sensitivities! Willing to work for your fur babies trust and love!
About: I’ve lived in a home with a large dog since I was 13. I adopted my first dog 3 years ago and in that time I’ve completely turned him around; he’s learned reliable recall, how to walk on a lead, and has mastered close to 40 tricks! I’ve also worked in exotic animal husbandry and spent time training exotics which helped me learn a lot of skills I can apply to dogs! My work schedule is really variable, so no matter the hours you need your pet taken care of I may be able to help you out! I currently work full-time but the hours vary. I have no issue waking up early or staying up late to make sure your pets needs are met! I’m off every Saturday-Sunday so I have plenty of time to help care for anyone’s furry friends as needed! I’ll be sure to follow any specific safety instructions you leave. I’d be happy to take your dog out and for as many walks as you and they desire. They won’t be let off the leash unless specifically mentioned that it’s safe to do so, and I’ll use any and all safety equipment that you like (harness, prong collar etc). I feel comfortable crating dogs when left alone if that is preferred.
“Alana was a wonderful guest in our house! She took such good care of our pups and we knew for sure they loved their time with her, they weren’t that excited to see us when we got home. She left the house tidy and clean, which honestly is cleaner than we left it! She also set our minds at ease with updates and photos which helped with our first time using Rover. We highly recommend Alana! Her and legend are perfect caretakers for our special members of our family.”
“Tami did a great job with Bear. Bear is very active and Tami played with him outside even though it was below freezing outside. I would highly recommend Tami and use her again to watch Bear.”

About: I have dog sat for 10+ families over the last 10 years. My family has always had dogs, so I am very comfortable around different breeds. We currently have a rottie at home who is 5 years old. I have experience giving medication to senior pets, as well as bathing, walking, feeding, and pottying pets. I am currently open to new opportunities around the Moses Lake/Othello, WA area! Feel free to message me with any questions or requests :) I am typically available to dog sit any day of the week. I work during the week so I would be gone the usual 8 hours. I have also taken on quite a few last-minute bookings in the past. Whenever I dog sit, it is always at the family's house. I make it a point to leave any house that I dog sit at cleaner than when I arrived.
“Steve was a great house sitter and companion to our dog. He vacuumed the house and picked up after our dog and took her on adventures which she really enjoyed. I recommend him to others as a house sitter and pet sitter.”

Joanna is incredible! She took wonderful care of my 4 dogs, including staying on top of my senior dog's last minute medication change. She even looked after my plants, including the baby seedlings I planted before leaving. I never have to worry when I'm out of town because I know everything is handled! Not having to worry is the best luxury - and Joanna is worth every penny! My only hesitation in posting this review is that everyone will discover how wonderful she is, and I will have to share her!

Joanna took great care of my house and my furry friends! All four dogs were happy and well taken care of. My house was nice and clean - she even brought my packages in! I will be travelling more frequently due to work, and will definitely be requesting Joanna every time I leave!

Joanna was very professional. She and her husband were on-time for everything, took great care of our husky, and were respectful of our apartment, leaving it as clean as they found it. My wife and I will definitely book with them again the next time we need a house-sitter.

Samuel successfully navigated with ease a variety of animals, including two rather difficult dogs. Everyone was healthy and happy when I returned, and the house looked better than it did when I left. I would happily have him return--the dogs would be happy as well!
