“Rachel and her family took amazing care of our pup when we had a last minute out-of-town trip. Rachel sent us photo updates and we knew he was having the time of his life, with tons of exercise and love. Milo will definitely visit again!”
“Kris was great! Her dogs are super sweet. She has a lot of space for them to run around and play. She took my dog on a walk too! Will definitely come back for more doggy daycare in the near future. Thanks again, Kris!”
“I was really nervous to leave Emma for the first time but she did great and had a wonderful day thanks to Brianna. Even got treated to a spa day. We're super grateful and will be coming back.”

Jennifer sent us great pics of him having a blast while he was there. All around great experience for us and we hope our pup gets to come play for the day again soon!”
About: Have had a pet or two pretty much my whole life, and I'm no spring chicken. Currently mom to a cat, 10 years, and a dog, 7 years. They are spoiled with love and attention. Enjoy the walks with my dog and thought it would be nice to meet more dogs in the neighborhood. To note, when walking your dog(s), mine will be relaxing at home. Also, the walks are good for my health. I don't have any special skills but I'm kind and loving. And it's true, I really do hang out with the pets at a party. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry bundles of happiness. At the moment, my schedule is very open and I can be flexible with it. Weekends are no problem. Early mornings, no problem. Late nights, no problem 😊 I'm a renter so I need to be a bit selective on who I can daycare or board. I can give you more insight once I meet your pup.
“She was very welcoming and accommodating. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was able to keep him busy and provided helpful distractions. Saipan did an amazing job and I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Yvonne was amazing with my girl and she was very kind with communication as well as sending pictures. We felt very lucky to have her as our sitter on such short notice today. Definitely will be coming back”
About: I grew up on a farm and have always been surrounded by animals of all kinds. I’ve had lifelong experience caring for pets, especially dogs and cats. I provide loving, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I handle all care personally. I am recently retired and want to stay active. I have two adult daughters who are active on Rover, walking and boarding dogs in Seattle and Tucson. I live on a 300-acre farm in Custer, WA, where I grew up with dogs of all different breeds. Later in life, I raised a black lab from a pup. Her name was Keela; she was very smart and lovable and lived to be 14 years old. Pets in my care receive constant supervision, regular exercise, and a calm, clean environment. I care for each pet myself and prioritize safety, comfort, and trust.
About: I can't imagine life without a dog! All my life I've used common sense and loads of love to care for my furry babies. I am a responsible and very loving pet owner. Since I am retired, my schedule is very flexible; I'm home most of the time. When I do work, it is usually on my computer in short periods. Your baby will receive lots of one-on-one attention and snuggles. I am retired and have lots of space in my home. Although there's no fenced yard, I will take your baby out on a leash and give them loads of love and attention.
About: I grew up training and showing med-large size dogs for 4-H (club) from the age of 10-13. Entered my dog in a dog agility course one of the years. Recently worked at a doggy daycare/training facility for several months. I took an online course about dog safety and health and have handled all sorts of dogs. I've helped raise 3 litters of puppies and sold them to responsible, loving families. I have a huge understanding of dogs and what they need from experience. An interesting fact- When I was 5 I got seriously injured by a pack of dogs but have not let that fear shy me away from challenges when it comes to dogs. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my routine. I work a day job during the week, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or playtime most evenings after 5 PM. Caring for dogs helps me unwind and stay grounded — it doesn’t feel like work to me. I also aim to open up more availability as I settle into my new job. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the space and follow the routine and preferences laid out by the owner. I keep things calm, clean, and consistent — whether that’s sticking to feeding times, giving meds if needed, or making sure your pup gets the right amount of exercise and attention. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so I can respond to a pet’s needs with care and patience. Safety and comfort are top priorities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — with kindness, respect, and lots of love.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, and I have a cat of my own! I have always loved taking dogs out on walks and snuggling with cats. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, and the odd reptile or bird, and I love getting the opportunity to gain more experience! I am available weekdays and weekends currently, and when school starts in late September, I will be available only on weekends and weekdays after 4pm. I live in an apartment complex that has a fence around the entire property. There’s a courtyard for dog walking/relief, and my apartment is pet friendly since I own a cat of my own. I walk dogs often, and feed my pets on every morning and night. I have a harness for my cat since he likes going outside, and I know not all cats like that. I give plenty of attention to my pets, and I might spoil them once in a while!
“Arilynn is 10/10!! I needed a sitter within the out and she was available, I was so thankful. She kept me updated on how my dog was doing and was attentive to my dog’s special needs (arthritis) and my requests for her care. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life. Being in the army I also get called to take care of others pets when they are out of town. Once I am scheduled with a pet owner they assume priority after I get off work M-F at the latest 5PM and I get weekends off I get a full understanding of the owner’s expectations with me and there pet in there home when they are out of town. I try to make constant communication with the owner too.
“Katrina was quick to respond to a last minute request for day care for my pup despite having not having previously cared for her. Katrina and her dogs were super friendly and welcoming and my dog had a blast playing with them! I will definitly be reaching out again next time I need a sitter, thanks Katrina!”
About: I’ve grown up as an animal lover and have raised a variety of different species of pets. Once I became a dachshund mom, I knew I found my calling! I consider all dogs under my care fur babies, and take care of them like they are my furry children. I have an open schedule and can accommodate a clients needs quite easily! Let me know what your schedule looks like and I can most likely make it work. I have a fenced yard perfect for dogs of any size. While in the house they will be kept company and allowed on the couch and dog beds. I’m experienced with crate training and have crates available for dogs that like a crate to sleep or relax in.
