“Tamantha, did a great job with house-sitting my dogs. The dogs were happy for us to be home and didn't pick up any behaviors while we were gone. No issues, no drama. I would totally hire Tamantha again.”
About: I love pet sitting because animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all sizes and personalities. Being around pets feels natural to me, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet sitting doesn’t feel like work, it feels like spending time doing something I’ve always loved. I have two dogs at home so I’m super used to working around animal schedules. I’m currently a hybrid nursing student so I have a bunch of free time and use this to earn some extra cash! I have hands-on experience house sitting in my hometown in Washington, where I’ve been trusted to care for both homes and pets while families are away. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, secure, and running smoothly, while also making sure pets receive the attention, care, and routine they’re used to. Having grown up around animals and regularly house sitting in my community, I understand how important trust and reliability are, and I always aim to give clients complete peace of mind.
“Roberta was perfect for our highly energetic Weimaraner. I knew Andy loved her, because when I got home, instead of giving me all his wild, I'm happy your home attention, he was sharing his time with us and Roberta. She also had the upper hand over him, which is also so important for Andy. Thank you Roberta!!!”
“Sofia was fantastic with our 2 cats! She’s an excellent communicator and sent daily photos during our week away. Upon returning home our cats were very relaxed and clearly felt very safe and taken care of with Sofia. We will absolutely use her again!”
“K was excellent caring for my young puppy Bernie. She gave him lots of love and attention and followed the rules of my house exactly as requested. Will hire her services again!”
“Erika did an amazing job caring for my home and 2 dogs. She is highly recommended for the excellent communication and thoughtfulness displayed. My dogs also enjoyed her companionship! 🐕 😃”
About: I’ve grown up with pets, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. I naturally connect with them and enjoy making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. For the past three years, my parents have cared for dogs, and I’ve been right there helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Spending time with different dogs has helped me learn how to care for each one based on their personality and needs. I also have experience with house sitting and I understand how important it is to keep your home and your pets well cared for while you’re away. I truly love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I currently work part time and only have trade school in the mornings from 7am-11am on weekdays. This leaves me with a lot of free time to spend caring for your animals! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep routines consistent and pets comfortable. I feed and give water on schedule, take dogs for walks when needed, and provide playtime, and companionship. For cats, I clean litter boxes, offer attention, and handle any medical needs as directed. I give updates to owners so they feel connected while away. My goal is to make pets feel happy, secure, and loved in their own home. 🐾
“Kelsei is absolutely amazing! Our fur babies love her as if she was apart of the family and someone they see daily! Both dogs were taken on walks everyday. Our 15 year old looked so happy when we got home and our 11 month old definitely knows what it means when we get our shoes on or so she thinks lol we will definitely be using kelsei in the future and recommending her to friends and family!! Thank you so much for taking care of our babies and taking care of our house like your own!”
“I think I found the true cat whisperer! Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!. Bailey, Smudge and Chloe Girl will miss you. Please come by to say hello anytime.”
“Janet is a wonderful, reliable and caring pet sitter. Her attentive care for my pet and home let me enjoy my holiday knowing I didn’t have to worry! I will definitely rebook Janet in the future!!”
“Maria is always great. We truly trust her with our little man, and hope to use her again in the future. Our dog is always excited to see her, and our house is always cleaner than when we left it. Thanks again Maria!”
“Zach always gives us updates with how our pups were and if there were any issues. I know they enjoyed their time with Zach and are looking forward to the next booking! Thanks Zach!!”
“Amber was great with our pups! We’re working through some separation anxiety and Amber made them both feel safe while we left for an evening out. She sent an update with pictures so we were confident they were doing well while we were gone.”
“Trevor was respectful of my home and took good care of both of my dogs while I was away. My younger dog is very timid with strangers and too nervous to eat when I leave sometimes and he warmed up to Trevor very quickly and ate his meals.”
“Excellent choice! She kept us updated, kept the dogs safe and at one point had to find a new way in the house because the door locked and we hadn’t left the correct key! I absolutely appreciate everything she did for our pets!”
“Cole was incredibly accommodating when it came to scheduling overnight sitting for our five dogs. While managing five dogs might seem challenging, Cole handled it with ease, while also following special instruction with medications and other needs. He provided daily updates complete with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Additionally, he took excellent care of our home. We truly appreciate his care and service!”

We LOVE Shea! She was absolutely wonderful to work with. She is as pet friendly as one can get, and she is as thoughtful, communicative, & efficient as she was kind. We had some setbacks due to weather and flight delays, and she was able to accommodate us and was not only flexible, but understanding. Which was such a relief. We have a bit of a skiddish furbaby, and Shea immediately got on her level to introduce herself and gave her the time she needed to warm up to her and was not at all put off by her slow to warm tendencies. Our house was cared for, clean and more importantly the pups were loved in our absence. I would highly recommend Shea for anyone who is in need of pet sitting and pet care needs. She was professional and she put us at ease even with the stress of inclement weather and flight delays. Thank you, Shea! We appreciate you. Ruthie & Phoebe miss you already.
Sofia was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the moment we met her, it was clear how sweet, caring, and attentive she is. She treated our dog like her own, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Most importantly, our dog adored her—which says everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be booking her again.
Definitely recommend McKenna. She took great care of our dogs when we were away. They were a bit sick, too, but she was attentive to their medication and schedule. She was on time, respectful, and left our house clean after house sitting. Appreciated the pics of Enzo and Draco as well. MUCH thanks!
Megan was fabulous with my sweet, but crazy boy! He doesn't usually take well to strangers, but he warmed up to Megan quickly. They became best buddies which made my heart very happy, especially since I was gone for longer than I had been before. Megan's a keeper! I'll definitely chose her again.
Super Vanessa - Spoiled my little Sassie Frass as usual. We were gone extra long 9 days ! I couldn't believe it - I didn't worry ... We got home and all was Great ! I got many happy dog pictures too ! Thanks for having such a great way with my fussy Eskimo Dog !
Pedro was amazing with my dogs! He followed all of my instructions perfectly, stuck to the feeding schedule, and spent quality time playing with them. He kept everything tidy and sent daily updates with photos and videos, which made me feel connected while I was away. His communication was excellent—always responsive and thoughtful, asking the right questions to make sure everything went smoothly. Pedro is incredibly reliable and trustworthy, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. I highly recommend him and look forward to his services in the future!
Roberta checks off everything we were looking for in a pet sitter & more! Immediately we could tell how caring and passionate she is for what she does. She took great care of our mini Aussie. We loved the text updates and pics she sent while we were away. She left our house as clean as it was when we left. We’ve already booked her again!
Harmony was the best choice for our pet and house sitting needs. She is dependable, responsible, friendly and great with pets. She understood and followed our directions perfectly, and genuinely cared for our spoiled pets. The house was in perfect condition when we arrived home and our dog Bonny and our cat Smoky already miss her. Harmony went over and above the call of duty and we really appreciate her!
