About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.

“Ayanna took great care of our two large dogs. I especially appreciated that she was available at the last minute, flexible, and communicative. Would definitely book again!”

“Caitlin helped us out last minute and was extremely accommodating to our senior dog with anxiety. She shared pictures and her response times were great. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


About: Just a runner training to make the Olympics. I run full time which is fun but doesn’t pay the bills yet. I work and train while coaching on the side. I live in Ballard and have transportation so getting around and taking care of pets isn’t an issue! Love working with all types of animals. House sitting is always fun. I have been house sitting since I was 14 and get asked every so often to fill in and watch the pets while keeping the house clean. Willing to do anything to accommodate and make things as easy as possible for owners! Can’t wait to get started! I’m currently working full time hours, but I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate most pets needs to be fed, walked, or played with I tend to ask questions about what the pets are allowed to do in home so that way I’m not breaking any rules or teaching unwanted habits.

About: I have experience in daycare/boarding settings, i have experience with high drive dogs, I do dog sports with my own personal dog so i am pretty confident in my handling skills. I have done years of research on dog related things some including understanding body language, knowing when a dog is uncomfortable or needs to be removed from a situation, what things are good and what are bad, how to use training tools properly if needed, learning the genetics of dog breeds and just over all temperaments that certain breeds have. I grew up on a farm full of dogs and other animals ive always owned dogs especially bully breeds ive been around dogs will all ages, behaviors and sizes my family and friends all know my love for animals and how good i am with them and how much i care about them even when they arent my own. I currently am unemployed, i am a stay at home dog mom and aside from the occasional grocery store run i am at home with my dogs. I will care for your pet to the best of my ability and under any instructions that may be given to me. I will care for your pet like they are my own and keep them as safe as possible while under my care!

“We had a wonderful experience with Philip and Lily! They took the time to come meet our dogs before the booking, which really helped our peace of mind—especially with our very nervous, slow to warm up dog. Their patience and care truly stood out. We received thoughtful updates while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We’re so grateful to have found reliable and caring pet care, and now we finally feel comfortable traveling again!”


About: Hi! I’m Tiffany,, a lifelong dog lover with 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a cozy cuddle on the couch, I’m here to provide the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. I treat every dog like family — because they are. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always happy to follow your dog’s specific routine, medical needs, dietary needs, and quirks. From high-energy puppies to mellow seniors, I’ve cared for them all. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re gone. I’d love to meet you both! 🐾 I do have a full time job that I work M-F 8-5. I am available to to swing by before or after work, as well as stop by on my lunch break so long as your house is in close proximity to my job. I am willing to stay at your home during the week as well to give your pet the attention and care they need around working hours. I have open a availability on weekends! With my home being small I am only able to accommodate inquiries that have me coming to your home. I will care for your home and pet as if they are my own! I ask that you leave me any specific details regarding routine (feeding times, medication times, etc.) to make the process easy and comfortable for your fur baby!

About: I’ve had experience with rescue animals in my home since my childhood. I began working as a pet sitter and dog walker (babysitter as well!) at 14, which has always been my favorite job! I was able to get a job as a kennel assistant in a veterinary clinic at 16 and worked my way up to a veterinary assistant position. I have dealt with administering medication and other veterinary procedures, and dealing with more special care required animals. I’m a college student taking online and in person courses through the local community college, so I have a pretty open schedule. Working a traditional job in college can be quite stressful, so I’m giving this a try! I have been working in other people’s homes for several years babysitting and pet sitting. I’m happy to clean dishes, take out trash, carry in mail and packages, and any other simple tasks. I always try my best to clean after myself and the fur babies each visit!

“Victoria is great, she is always very responsive and cares deeply for the pets she looks after. You can tell that she loves what she does and that she cares for your pet as if it were her own. My dog absolutely loves her and gets excited every time he sees her. I would definitely recommend her, and will absolutely hire her again in the future.”


About: I, myself, own a senior dog and look after her well. I dog sit for family and friends when need be. I have also shadowed at a Veterinary office and work at one as well. I’m completely free every day until I leave for college on August 20th, so I can give your pets my full attention Monday through Sunday; walks, playtime, and all their care need I make sure that they get used to me first before jumping into caring for them. I allow them to realize I am trustworthy and here to feed them and love them.

About: I have worked with animals the past several years in different environments consisting of shelters, clinics, dog walking, and even doggy daycares!

I have such a passion for animals and can’t wait to meet your fur babies! 🐾🥰 I am currently working part time remotely from home making my schedule flexible to accommodate your fur babies! I am available weekdays and most weekends. I can drop in while your at work and take your pup on an adventure walk around the neighborhood or toss the ball in the back yard and give them some loveins! ❤️ If pet sitting I can stop in multiple times a day as requested and feed, water, play, and even medicate if needed. I am very detail oriented and follow all pet care instructions. I will always send some cute pics and a detailed report after each visit to keep you informed.
