“Amy took very good care of my dog Abby. She sent me several pictures when she was out playing with my dog which was great because it made me feel like she was safe and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Amy”


“We have two needy pups who do not do well on their own for long periods of time. Jace came for the day while we were out and we came home to some happy pups. Jace was on time and very friendly. The pups took to him right away. He sent photos through out the day with updates which we really appreciated.”


“I found Nadalie to be quite reliable with house-sitting and cat-sitting for me when I was away. She took our garbage to the curb and returned the cans and kept our outdoor plants watered as requested. My cat was healthy and happy when I returned home. My home was kept neat and was clean when I arrived back from my trip. I am pleased with her service.”


“Sarah was WONDERFUL! She was communicative, respectful of all house rules, and my dogs were really well cared for. She even went above and beyond with clean up before we returned. We will absolutely use Sarah in the future.”


“Peggy was so great with our three dogs. We will absolutely trust her with our dogs again and would strongly recommend her to any pet parent, especially one with some special needs. We have two Papillions (13+14 years old) who both have their own issues. Our male is standoffish with people and doesn’t like anyone but he accepted her. Our female has some hearing and cognitive issues including nightmares but she showed patience and love and took great care of them. Our third dog is a 1 1/2 year old, 115 lb Great Pyrenees so we cover the spectrum with dog sizes. She also house sat for us and gave us that additional piece of mind.”


“Hannah rocks. She responds right away and had no problem meeting us in person before taking care of our dogs. We have too mutts that think they are pretty tough and Hannah was able to approach them knowing it was all a show. She plied then with treats and they were all instant buddies, despite our dogs’ incessant barking. She showed true patience with them and such honesty with my wife and I. She even corrected a payment error that would have worked in her favor and was honest about traveling out of state in case that was a concern for us regarding COVID. She was totally understanding of our precautions, our house was left in pristine shape in spite of our sloppy dogs, and she is will to go above and beyond for our doggos. She changed out a bandage on one dog’s leg who had a hotspot. I would without hesitation hire Hannah again due to her care for our dogs, her open communication and honesty with us, and her down to earth nature.”


“Anna was great. She communicated well, was diligent and loving in how she related to Gilly, and showed initiative and a positive work ethic in caring for our home while we were gone for 4 days. We would work with her again.”


“Hallie is a senior lab very attached to me so can be challenging to sit for in my absence. Even though Chloe just met her, I was very pleased to return home to a happy and healthy girl who obviously did just fine and must have enjoyed her time with Chloe.”



“Shawn is amazing, I highly recommend her! She took such wonderful care of my two senior dogs while I was away. Shawn sent me notes and photos so I knew exactly how my dogs were doing and gave me peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. I came home to happy dogs and a well-kept home, I couldn’t have asked for more!”


“Katherine and her son have quickly become our favorite doggy nanny’s for Java by far. They spend special attention and kept to our instructions for our little guy. It really shows how much they love animals. On the first sitting Java had a hard time letting them leave. Thank you again for both of your wonderful.”


“Penny has watched our dogs and house twice and each time, has provided great service. Our dogs are happy and healthy, and our house is clean. She communicated well and send pictures and updates daily. Thank you Penny! We appreciate you so much!”


“Jordan was excellent. I only adopted Oso the day prior but was called in to work. She met with Oso that day to ensure the two were a match. She responded with very short notice to dog sit within my home overnight. Her communication was perfect and she updated me often with how Oso was doing, what they were up to, and with multiple photos showing a very happy rescue.”


About: Hello, I am also an avid dog owner (I have had 3 Boxers, I currently just have a medium Cavapoodle (Doodle)), a Chiweenie, and an Alaskan Malamute. I can walk, help train, potty train, and spend time with your dog while you are busy. I love animals and would love to help your animal get the love that it needs while you are away. My schedule is flexible, I am a school teacher, but I can be available before and after school for walks, home visits, and other needs. I am also available on weekends. Thanks for considering me, I look forward to working with you and your pet when you need a little help. I hope to provide good care for your dog when you most need it from one dog lover to another. I can also provide services for other animals as well. Please consider our home, it's fantastic! Your pet will be truly loved here, so no worries! During the summer, I am available full time for animal care and babysitting services. So, go on your vacations and trips and have some peace of mind about your fur babies on their vacation! I can also keep your dog/cat separated from mine if needed, if your dog or cat does not do well with other dogs I have plenty of space, and front and back yards to separate them. I am on a teacher schedule. Home at night. Someone is always available at the house for care. Your fur babies will never be on their own. 24/7 supervision. We also have two little girls here, but they love animals and are used to large and small dogs. No allergies. I spend a lot of time with them on walks, playing, interaction, yard time, and reward time. My dogs are medium trained, and well behaved. They get along great with other dogs. I feed my dogs twice per day, but can feed yours on any schedule you would prefer.

“Melinda is the best! She takes great care of our house and our boys. Any pet is lucky to have her (and her son, with owner permission) take care of them. Ours got regular walks and lots of playtime while we were out of town. It's always a relief when Melinda is available to stay when we are gone.”


“Steven was fantastic at taking care of my pup for a last minute request. He was communicative and took great care to make sure her needs were addressed! I look forward to booking again in the future.”


About: I’m currently a Veterinary Assistant, in school for my Veterinary Technicians license. I’m experienced giving medications, injections, and toenail trims! I have pretty advanced knowledge with animal terminology. With owning a Dalmatian, I am also very used to the energy levels of some very high dog breeds including, Dalmatian, Belgian Malinois, and Golden Retrievers. I’m currently working in Bainbridge Island for half the week but that does not stop me from dropping in/ spending time with your beloved pet! I love routine! Animals thrive on it! I thrive on it! With my own dog, I know she has a lot of needs that need to be met! Sticky notes! Booklets! As many tips and tricks you can give me to provide the care your pet needs!

About: I’m 19 and have been around animals my whole life. I’ve cared for everything from horses to guinea pigs and have fostered dogs and kittens through the Humane Society. I'm comfortable with all kinds of pets and always treat them like family! I’m currently studying for my real estate license, so I have a super flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home. That means your pets will have plenty of company, attention, and care while you’re away! I’m really good at reading pets’ body language to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I follow your care instructions closely and keep your home clean. I love sending picture updates so you can see how your pets are doing, and I always try to leave your place even better than I found it.

“Natascha was great. She was flexible in adapting to my changing time requirements, was on time and took great care of my older dog. I’ll be using her again and highly recommend her to others.”
