About: We are huge dog lovers and have our own crew of rescue dogs. We have been involved in dog rescue for many years on and off! Noella is a SAHM. So she is generally home unless out on and adventure or running errands/appointments. Niles has Saturday and Sunday off and is home evenings. We have 3 indoor cameras so we can check in while we are work or away for any reason. We own the home and property and have almost 2 acres, with a large portion securely fenced. We pair your dog with our dogs that are appropriate for age, play, and general personality similarities. Little dogs can be separate from large dogs if needed/preferred. Dogs are always supervised- whether indoors or out! We just want to extend our love and passion for dogs to others! Young dogs-seniors are all welcome in all shapes and sizes! Our home is their home! We have a secure indoor kennel and outdoor kennel if needed. Special diets are no problem! We are willing to do anything for your dog that you do! Pictures and updates are always provided! We do require that all dogs be fully vaccinated and on flea/ tick medication.

About: Hello! I have been working with horses for around five years, and in that time, I have watched and cared for many different types of animals. I am willing to watch, care for, and love on any (and all) animals. I believe that each animal has a different way that they want to be loved. Some dogs are energetic and want to return that ball to you for hours. Others may want to just sit and cuddle for that same time. Each animal has his/her own unique experience in life. Therefore I believe that each individual should be treated differently, but with equal love and attention. I am willing (love) to watch animals that may have abuse in their history, are shy to new people, or may have anxiety, or physical limitations. I have a lot of experience with anxious animals, seizures, and animals with physical limits. I used to have one of my own, now an angel. I require a meet-and-greet before I watch your animal(s), just so I can know exactly where everything is and make sure I can help your animal(s) be as comfortable as possible. A good meet-and-greet also helps me meet the animals that may have more hesitations about meeting me. I can provide references upon request! Thank you for your consideration of my services! I am avalible for pet care all days of the week. I am a full-time online college student, which allows a lot of time in my mornings and afternoon to spend time with your animal(s)! My evenings tend to be busy due to my equestrian team practices, but I am able to feed between the hours of 4-6pm. These practices are generally Tuesdays and Thursdays. I take the utmost pride and care of your animals while you are away. Their food always comes first. I enjoy morning/afternoon walks and/or cuddles! I also take pride in putting myself on their schedule for their comfort. What you would like me to do, that is what I will do and more! I have experience caring for abused, shy animals as well as animals that may have anxiety or physical limitations. Please message me if you are wondering about my experience with a specific special need that your animal has! I would like to make sure that I am a good fit for their needs and can provide what is necessary for their health and comfort.

“Chelsie went above and beyond taking care of my dog. I know my dog felt cared for and loved her walks. Chelsie always took pictures and updated me with notes. That meant so much to me. She was reliable and punctual. She gave my dog a great experience and I feel super grateful to her. Thank you Chelsie.”

About: We come from a multi-pet big-dog family. We have a dog of our own that came from a family litter. She's 4yrs old and is part of a hearing service dog program. Let us know if you're ok with or would like for us to bring our dog with while we hangout with your animal. We've spent professional time tending to animals in animal care settings. IF your animal is under 2yrs old, we'd like documentation of the vaccines they've received thus far so that we can keep us and ours safe. We're prepared & equipped for: - large breed dogs - mixed breed dogs - dog & cat households - social/anti social dogs - sensitive dogs - velcro dogs (dogs that prefer to stay w/ or be around their human pack) - reactionary dogs - all life stages (newborn to elder) - full time outside/inside dogs - working dogs - cats & all their moods Pet care is our daily routine. We work unconventional hours/days. Give us ample notice and we'll be there for your animals like they're our own. What we can offer is what we'd hope for. Someone to take care of our non-human family like we would, someone who's capable, trustworthy, and knows their field. We're naturalists and prefer to be around animals. Fenced yards are everything ! Then again, we've lived in many places where we didn't have that luxury. We're ready for neighborhood walks, dog car rides (seatbelts included), dog parks if that's your ballpark, or ready to roam around your abode just to stimulate your animal. Studying animal behavior has made us pretty good at reading dog cues, especially bathroom and fatigue/needing calm for zzz. We just ask that you're honest about your dogs needs, wants, routine, and capabilities. Care for your animal is same for your home. We'll treat it with kindness as we would our own. We know how an animals home environment can be the most stabilizing thing, especially when their family is away, so we know just how to make ourselves part of your home so your animal can do their thing. Enrichment is one of our passions. Be assured that any down time will be mixed with sensory, olfactory ,or environmental enrichment for your animal should you desire.

About: I am an avid animal lover and can give your pets attention just like you do at home. Have always had dogs and cats in the home and have the patience to deal with all pets in a loving manner. Also work from home so they will not be left crated all day and will have plenty to do and play time with my pup as well. Will even give photo and video updates of your loved pet. Walks everyday and trips to a nearby dog park will be available as well. I am available on short notice and a thorough caregiver so your pet does not go without. Can also deal with special instructions for meds or differing abilities. Look forward to hearing from yall.

“Leah was amazing. Came in short notice. Dealt with a timid dog well. Gave lots of updates and was always on time”


“Toni is super friendly and will take great care of your pet(s). I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again for dog walking. A+++”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and demeanors since I was a young kid and to this day friends and family rely on me to care for their pets when they’re out of town. There’s little that phases me and I’m good at adapting to a pet’s needs. I’m also good with plants! I work as a newspaper reporter in downtown Centralia and have a flexible schedule, so it’s easy for me to slip out of the office when needed and check in on your pet. My 11-year-old cat and I share a studio apartment with a fenced outdoor “catio” for enrichment. When caring for your pet in your home, I will carefully respect your property and ensure that everything is clean and in place when you return.

About: Animals are our passion, and we’ve built a life around caring for them. With over 20 years of combined experience caring for animals, we’ve looked after dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra love and attention. We also have extensive experience with reptiles, small animals, and pets with medical needs. Our home is full of love (and fur)! Our oldest dog is 13, and our youngest is nearly 1, so we’re familiar with a wide range of behaviors, energy levels, and care requirements. Melissa previously worked as a vet tech in training, so we’re also fully comfortable administering medications and understanding medical instructions. I’m a U.S. Army veteran, and my military background has helped shape me into someone who’s dependable, organized, and calm under pressure. I bring those qualities into every pet sitting job, aiming to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet needs early-morning walks, medication, or just someone to stick to their routine—I’m here to help. We’re currently available any time, any day—including holidays and last-minute bookings. Our schedule is 100% flexible, so we can easily accommodate your pet’s unique routine. Need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays? We’ve got you covered. When caring for pets in your home or on their usual walking routes, safety and trust are always top priorities. We take the time to understand your pet’s environment, routines, and needs—whether it’s a quiet walk through the neighborhood or special instructions for your home while you’re away. We’re respectful of your space and treat your home with care and professionalism. You can count on us to follow your instructions closely, lock up securely, and maintain a clean, safe environment for your pets. During walks, we stick to routes your dog is familiar with (unless instructed otherwise) and always keep them leashed and under control. We’re alert to potential hazards like traffic, other dogs, or wildlife and will adjust as needed to keep your pet safe and calm. Communication is key—we’ll keep you updated and will always reach out if anything seems off or needs attention.

About: I have lived with many different animals my whole life and have taken care of more than just my own. I have cared for friends', previous roommates' and family members' animals. Each one has quickly found me to be like a secondary owner. Of all the animals that I've cared for (birds, cats, dogs, rats, ferrets, and more) i found that I like cats, dogs, and ferrets to be the most fun and rewarding. Though I love all animals! I even make it a habit to feed and play with stray animals. I wish to bring them all home, but my apartment doesn't allow pets. Allow me to care for your pets while you're away and I'll make sure that they are happy and healthy while they await your return home. I'm currently pregnant so I'm taking some time to myself. Meaning I'm free all day every day. I'm more or a night owl, but will care for your animal whenever needed. I am very literal and follow orders to the letter. I will never do anything that you the owner haven't said is OK or not. If I have any questions I will not hesitate to contact you. The person who knows more about their animal is you the owner, so I will look to you for guidance. Want to make sure that each and every animal receives the same treatment that you give!

About: As an AKC conformation and sport handler, I have experience with animals off all shapes, sizes and abilities! My experience extends to special needs, elderly, intact, in heat, puppy/kittens, exotic, large and strong pullers. In my home I have space separate from my animals, a fully fenced side yard and plenty of my own tools, leashes/collars of all sizes and supplies. I am a stay at home mom with no obligations besides Sunday church! You can count on me to have lots of time for your furry friend. I can cater my care to specifically what your pet requires. As an experienced AKC handler I have seen just about every breed and temperament under the sun.

About: Hi! I’m a paraeducator who works at a local school, so I have summers off and I can’t think of a better way to spend that time than caring for dogs! I’ve always been an animal lover, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup needs playtime, snuggles, walks, or just a calm and caring presence while you’re away, I’m here to help! ☺️ My schedule is pretty open during the Summer besides spending every other weekend with friends and family. Once I go back to work in September, I will only be able to house sit as long as it is in reasonable distance from my workplace. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or favorite toys and treats. I know every pet is different, so I pay attention to their personality and comfort level, whether they’re energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed. I will also make sure to keep the home clean and secure while you’re away. I’ll give updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is always to treat your home and your pet with the same respect and love I would want for my own.

“Guadalupe is AWESOME! Rafa LOVES her and asked secretly to be adopted by her. Seriously, our dog really enjoys his visits with Guadalupe. She is perfectly capable of handling a our large pup that fluncked-out of and was asked not to return to a boarding resort from a "professional trainer".”


About: I will make sure your dog knows I care about them, I am very hands on. I love playing, petting, just having a good time with animals. There are some great trails around the area that I have heard about that I would love to take your dog with me to explore (as long as that is okay with you) and I will make sure your dog has a great time with me. I currently work a part time overnight job, but I am not getting many hours at all so my availability is pretty open. I have been pet sitting for about 1 year now, and I really enjoy it. Before that, I had a dog of my own, but she passed recently, so I am eager to pass on my love for her, to any other animals that I can.

About: Ive been working with dogs and cats since i was 7 years old. My family,and Neighbors relied on me to walk, feed, watch and play with their pets. I'm currently available during the day until 4 PM during the week so I will have lots of time to play with your adorable pet. During the weekends I am unavailable for personal things I have a fenced yard but i do not have a pet of my own. I am very good at communicating and flexible with what people offer

“I have hired Ruby to take care of my dogs, two Australian Shepherds that can be a hand full of energy! She loved them and did a great job and went an "extra mile" to feed and play with them. On a day that she had car problems she still found a way to get to my house and take care of them when I was out of town. Ruby is very responsible and makes a point to do the very best.

She is very diligent about making sure any animals in her care are happy and healthy. Making sure they're fed and always have water, playing with them and taking them on walks.

I will definitely ask for her again next time.”
