Lizz is amazing; she took this booking last minute and had plenty of time to meet Kade twice before the booking to make sure he warmed up to her. She was so nice and patient with Kade and it looks like they had a great time! Thank you!!

Camille is one of the only pet sitters I've found who can consistently get my cat to play and be comfortable while she is pet sitting. She always considers my cat's feelings and doesn't try to force anything. She always supplies great photos, and she is willing to do extra things like a video call when I start to miss my cat. Camille is definitely one of my favorite pet sitters, and you'll be glad you booked with her.

Arianna was awesome, able to come meet our cats and start drop-in visits on short notice while we were away for vacation. She was proactive, responsive, genuinely sweet with the cats, great about sending pics, and took care of everything we needed. Thank you so much Ari! Will definitely book again next time.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child- my dad rescued my dog, rosie, when I was 9 years old. I know all of the responsibilities that come with raising a furry friend, and I will gladly face any challenges in order to improve my skills and service. I am honored to work alongside you, as well as your dog. I work part-time, as I attend high school. I am avaliable 5-7am and 4-12pm on weeknights. I am also avaliable to spend the night, too. I care for dogs, as cats are not yet in my field of experience. I am able to run, walk, feed, love and give attention to your fur babies as needed. In addition, I am prepared for any mess and will always leave the house tidied and cleaned up.

About: Hi, I'm so excited to meet your pet! What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on background in animal welfare. As a volunteer at PAWS and a former intern at Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, I have spent hundreds of hours working directly with a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. This professional training means I am deeply familiar with dog body language, safety protocols, and positive reinforcement techniques. I know how to read a dog's subtle cues to keep them feeling safe, calm, and happy. Because of my experience with rescue environments, I specialize in: -Building trust with shy, nervous, or anxious dogs -Managing high-energy or reactive pups with patience and composure -Strict safety and leash habits to ensure your dog is always secure Whether your pet needs an active walking buddy or a patient caregiver who respects their boundaries, I bring a calm, shelter-tested approach to every visit. I can't wait to give your pet the high-quality, attentive care they deserve! I’m currently a Freshman at WWU! I only have three classes so I have plenty of time to spare to take furry friends for walks! Because of my shelter and sanctuary background, safety is a habit for me. When I’m in your home, I practice a strict "double-barrier" rule so your pet never has a chance to slip out the front door, and I always check that harnesses and leashes are totally secure before heading out. My eyes are 100% on your dog during walks—no headphones or phone scrolling—so I can spot loose dogs or triggers ahead of time. I am completely comfortable giving medications on your exact schedule, whether it's pills, liquids, or topical treatments. I treat your space with total respect, meaning I'll always wipe muddy paws, wash out food bowls, and leave your house exactly how I found it, keeping you updated with honest notes and photos along the way.

Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.

Sophia was fantastic! One of my cats got so stressed missing us that he ended up having blood in his urine - she spotted it and communicated to me right away so we could get him to a vet and get meds. She was a great communicator and clearly very sweet and caring with my boys. I will definitely book her again! Thank you!

About: My pet care experience began when I joined a humane society volunteer program where I worked for 6 years and became a shift lead. Later, I worked at a doggy daycare and overnight pet hotel. There I worked with specific dog’s needs and care as well as managed a group of up to 60 free-roaming dogs (yes, it was as amazing as it sounds) I have worked as a pet sitter and dog walker for most of my life, and I have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have also worked with horses for most of my life and in the summers I care for horses on a large farm. They are pretty much a bunch of big, funny, puppies. I am formally trained in: -Dog first aide and CPR -Dog, cat, and small animal body language and care -Dog Bathing -Basic obedience training I am currently a recent WWU graduate working a part-time job. Being in my gap year after school, most of my time is flexible and social. I’m looking to fill some of my free time working with cute pets! While I do have a good foundation in general pet care, pet safety, and dog behavior, I prioritize the individual needs of the dog. I may have experience with many pets but no one knows your dog better than you. Care, to me, is about open communication and making sure your pup is happy!

About: I've had pets my entire life, so as soon as I was old enough, I started dog sitting and walking. I love animals of all kind and can't wait to meet yours! The following is my technical experience in the field: Maggie (my own dog): Maggie was the third dog I've ever had and the first of which I was able to truly help with. We got her when she was a puppy and she's a Vizsla so she has always had boundless energy. I helped with her training when she was a puppy and she's pulled the leash her whole life so I have experience with that as well. Again, she has always been extremely energetic. In sum, Maggie has helped me learn how to: - Care for a puppy - Walk a dog that pulls - Entertain a dog with boundless energy Kona My professional experience with dog walking and sitting was with an elder dog named Kona. I worked with him for just about 4 years part time. Kona had two parents who both worked full time jobs and had a horse at another location so I would go over when they were gone all day and spend time with him, take him on short walks, and occasionally to the dog park. Kona really helped me to understand the intricacies of working with an elder dog, and although he's gone now, I think about the time I spent with him regularly. Kona helped me learn how to: - Care for an elder dog - Stimulate a dog with limited ability _ Read a dogs body language and have patience with them I am currently in full time school and not working in a formal setting. I am unavailable most mid-days however I'm completely free on the weekends. The following is a schedule of my open availability: Monday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Tuesday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Wednesday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Thursday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Friday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Saturday: 6:00am-10:00pm Sunday: 6:00am-10:00pm As a pre-note, I wanted to say that I have an official work resume with references if you would like to see that before we meet in person. Dog Walking I do not have any supplies of my own however I have used many different types of leash and harness in the past. I am physically able and comfortable walking long or short distances at varying paces. On longer walks, I will carry water and dog bags with my the entire time. Pet Sitting I will maintain your pets schedule and follow any guidelines of being in your space. I do not offer dog sitting in my home as I live in a building with three other people, I would be more than happy to watch your dog in your home. I am open to meeting your dog with you there before the official sitting date as I know some dogs are sensitive to new people. I am comfortable feeding and entertaining your pup as I have been around dogs my entire life. I will also be aware of any emergency contact information that would be necessary in an emergency. House Sitting I will ensure the home is secure, and perform basic tasks like collecting mail, watering plants, and maintaining cleanliness. I understand that I will be in your space and am open to following any rules you might have for your home.

Lizz was great, super responsive and communicative. She took good care of our older dog including administering meds. We ran out of meds mid-way through our time and Lizz was great about retrieving the replenishment from our mailbox and not skipping a beat. Our dog was healthy and happy when we returned after three weeks away! Thanks!

Sophia is the sweetest. I forgot to cancel a drop in and she showed up and was so gracious about me wasting her time. She's so sweet with my pups and they love her! My little one, Mabel, recently got injured and I really appreciated that Sophia followed my special instructions to carry her out to the yard and back so Mabel didn't make her injury worse. Thank you Sophia!

She was absolutely wonderful! Attentive, communicative, and so thoughtful about sending pictures of my kitties, just as I’d asked. One of my cats decided to take it upon himself to demolish a potted plant while I was away, and Willow cleaned up the whole mess without hesitation—and rescued my plant. When I got home, both of my kitties were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Pete and Cooper! From the moment we left for our vacation, we felt peace knowing they were in such caring hands. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. One thing Pete and Cooper absolutely loved was all the time she spent playing fetch with them. It was clear she took the time to give them not only great care but also plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. We loved all the photos too!! will definitely hire Sophie again !
