Pet Sitting in Gig Harbor

“I feel so grateful to leave Elsa in your care, knowing that she is well cared for. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to get out and about- without worrying about Elsa’s well-being.”

“Christy was GRRRREAT! In addition to unabashedly doting on Filbert and taking him for a walk (which, as she knew, was at her own peril as he's leash-reactive) she helped me navigate Rover's byzantine scheduling interface and obtained a refund for me after even Rover's "Help" support messed up the visit. (Apparently they also struggle w/ the system!) All-in-all, I'm not sure who enjoyed who's company more, but I could definitely tell our Filbert was sorry to see her go and we're both looking forward to Christy's next visit.”

“Wow are we ever lucky to have found Erica! She was incredible taking care of our two cats. Such good communication and lots of cute photos. She even took out our trash without us ever asking, changing the litter box and was such a pro at giving our cat her medication. She’s got such a heart for animals and we’re so thankful for her! Highly recommend!!”

“Dani did an amazing job checking in on my Kitty while I was out of town. I highly recommend her and would trust her with my cat anytime! She gives great, detailed updates and is great with communication.”

“Sarah is very thorough and knows how to judge my puppy’s behavior due to her growing and teething. Sarah has wonderful calm demeanor and patience! Exactly what my little girl needs! Highly recommend Sarah!”

“Our Bloodhounds take a min to warm up to others while we are away. Dawn and her husband are very calm and patient with them and they warm up quick. Was nice to go out of town for a week knowing they were well taken care of with daily updates and pics! Highly recommend!”

Holly W.

“Prompt to respond, helpful and patient with our large puppy who is still learning manners. She was a huge help taking care of our dog when we were gone for the day.”

About: I moved from Mi to Wa in 2015 and decided in 2018 to be a dog walker. That was in King county and after moving to a house in 2021, dog boarding turned into my new side job. Last year I also enrolled in Victoria Stilwell’s Academy for positive training. So I am very aware of dog’s body language and needs. I absolutely love dogs and they are truly my life now but when I was 8 that wasn’t the case. I was bit in the face by a family friend’s dog. He was old and on medication, I startled him awake which led to him biting me. From this incident, I watched Victoria Stilwell on animal planet to get over my fear of bigger dogs and here I am today with a certification in dog training and starting my career with human’s best friend. My goal is for you and your dog to be as comfortable as possible. I only treat dogs/pets as I would want someone to treat mine (and believe me I am a high maintenance pet mom 😉) Dogs are my job. Whether it is boarding, sitting, or walking; this is what I do full time. Sometimes I do Instacart to get out a bit but will do that when my boyfriend is home. I am starting up my bath bomb business again so to have a companion working alongside with me is my ideal work day. My boyfriend works from home majority of the time, so there is always someone home. His kids do come over 50% of the week and are very kind and helpful with dogs that are boarding with me. They are 12 and 11 so they aren’t little kids. I have lick mats, Kong Gyro, and plenty of space for your dog to have fun at my house. My house is fenced in, we are updating the property all the time to make sure it is safe as possible. For larger dogs, I have a bell on a ziptie to put on your dog’s collar just so I can hear where they are at all times when I am outside with them. For smaller pups, I always go outside with them due to being in an open area so they are safe. I also have a 30’ leash that I can hook them to for extra safety. Inside, I make them as comfortable as possible. Whatever they like at home I try my best to provide at my house.

“Anne is great! We had to be away for a work thing and needed someone to feed and play with our dogs on short notice. After meeting Anne we felt comfortable and not at all anxious. Hope she's available for a need in the future.”

About: I’ve always had animals in my life since I was little. So I’ve learned at a young age how to care for animals. I currently have two dogs, a Goldendoodle named Ollie (4) and a senior dog Bella who is 17 1/2! So I’ve had experience with both the puppy stage and now the senior stage. I’m also a mom of 3 kiddos. They’re all in school so I’ve been looking for something to fill my time while they’re in school. So what a perfect way to do that and do what I love and hang with animals 😊 I drop my kids off at school by 9am everyday and pick up around 2:30. So I have that time in between for walking dogs etc I have two friendly dogs at home and kids who love animals too. I don’t have a fenced yard but I can always keep a close eye on the dog when they go potty or play outside. If they need to be leased at all times I can do that too.

“Jessica came on time, sent photos of our dogs, kept us informed, and left the home as she found it. Very dependable.”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life from rodents to dogs. I have experience with labradors, basset hounds, German shepherds, Shih Tzus, and cocker spaniels. I also have had bunnies, turtles, ferrets, and I currently have 2 guinea pigs! I love all dogs, big or small! When I was in high school, I got my own yellow lab- Sedona. I trained her on basic commands: sit, stay, paw, lay down, roll over, and polite walking manors! I recently retired from the Army, and I have a flexible, part time recreation job. Mornings and Evenings are typically the best time for me to schedule, but because my schedule is flexible I can make accommodations! Whatever guidance I am given to respect someone’s home I will do! As for dog walking, I keep all dogs on a leash for their safety. I can do long walks or short- fast paced or slow sniff everything walks.

“Great communication, I appreciate Megan as usual!!!”

“Highly recommend Cambria! She took great care of our two dogs. She was responsive and sent lots of photos! We will definitely book her services again!”

Aleta S.

“Meredith and Elliott were wonderful! I booked last minute for a holiday weekend due to a cancellation from another sitter and they were so accommodating in arranging a time to meeting our kitties and get instructions and keys beforehand. Meredith is very communicative and sends lots of pics, which we love. She also gave plenty of attention and love to our shy cat that hides under the bed. Very happy with the care our kitties received!”

About: I’ve been professionally walking and caring for dogs and cats for about 5 years now. I’ve grown to understand how to give all sorts of different pets the care they need. More than just walks, I offer adventures to the park or beach. If you have a social friendly pup I have a very loving sweet Boarder Collie that would be thrilled to play and interact with your pup. If you have a nervous or less social pup i’m happy to offer them the one on one time they need. My schedule changes but im usually always able to make time to drop in or walk any pets close by! Mornings and evening are when Im most available. I have worked with many dogs both aggressive and calm and I have a good understanding on avoiding triggers, creating safe spaces for pets to play, and caring for every pet based on their personality and needs.

“Erin was amazing. My dog and cat were happy when we came home. My dog is a senior blind tripawd and the fact that she has a blind dog made me feel so much better about leaving my guy home :( She checked in twice daily on time and didn’t hesitate to ask questions when needed. I’ll definitely trust her with my pets again.”

About: I've had dogs for 15 years and grew up with cats. I have taken care of family and friends pets including chickens, cats and dogs. We have dog sat in our home as well as done drop ins. I am available for drop in visits that include potty breaks and feeding. I am comfortable giving medications if needed. I currently work remote with the ability to work my own hours. This gives me the flexibility to care for your fur babies as needed. Having two bloodhounds I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and reliable to watch your fur babies. I like to provide updates with pictures and progress reports. I also prefer to have a meet and greet prior to make sure it's a good fit all around.

“Jennifer was great with our dog! Loved getting the pictures and updates from her on every visit. She kept right on schedule and even did a few extra things to help us out like bringing in packages that were delivered. Would definitely work with her again, highly recommend!”

“Ethan did a great job with Bravo! We have never left Bravo for this long and felt really comfortable leaving Bravo with Ethan. I'm pretty sure he kept him more entertained then we do an even brought him over a new toy, which he loves! Thanks, Ethan for taking such good care of Bravo and sending pics to us of him enjoying his day! We hope he is still with Rover when we need him again!”
