House Sitting in Guide Meridian, Bellingham, WA

“Kayli was amazing! She stayed in our home and watched our two rambunctious dogs and equally chaotic cat for a week and was great with all of them. She sent us lots of updates including photo and video which really helped ease our minds about leaving them for a week. We got home to a clean house and animals that had clearly fallen in love with her. We will absolutely reach out to Kayli again!”

“Mikayla did a great job looking after my cat. He is having some health issues that are unresolved so I was very nervous to leave him. But she looked after him and gave me updates on how he was doing - and rolled with me being a nervous cat-mama. I already have booked her for a few more trips!”

“Stone stayed with our big old dog for 9 days and did a fantastic job! Plus the house looks spotless and she dutifully checked the mail, watered veggie starts, and kept the hummingbirds fed. We will definitely call on Stone again for above and beyond pup and home care!”

“We would book Malia again, she did a great job with our dogs. She sent us photos and kept us informed on how our dogs were doing. We came home to very happy dogs and a clean home.”

“I felt great know our pup and our home were well cared for.”

“Mika and Koji were absolutely wonderful! They are both very kind and welcoming, we knew our pups were well cared for! Would happily book with them again.”

“Yvonne was absolutely wonderful! She took our dogs on daily walks and sent photo updates daily. Her communication was superb and our dogs even learned some new tricks! I highly recommend her and we will definitely book with her again! Thank you Yvonne for taking such good care of our fur babies!”

“Elle was prompt for our meet n greet and very polite and personable. Max calmly walked along side her which put my mind at ease. She was able to book on short notice and took great care of my "kids".”

“Hope took great care of our home and furbaby while we were on vacation. We appreciated the frequent updates and good communication. When we got home, we could tell our dog had been well cared for by how relaxed she was.”

“Sara was great! The girls were happy and healthy when we returned!”

“Maddy truly loves animals! She is organized, responsible, a great communicator and extremely dependable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!!”

“Annashaye did a great job caring for my 2 pups. She has great communication and the house looked perfect when I got home. The dogs really seem to like her and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”

“Jayde always makes us feel safe knowing our dog Luna is well taken care of and having a blast,she probably likes hanging out with Jayde more than us! Thanks for always sending updates and kind words Jayde, you are our go to Rover!!”

“Grace is awesome. Sadie had clearly been loved! House was super clean and Grace communicated regularly. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”

“AJ watched our 3 cats and 4 chickens again this time for 12 nights. It was clear that everyone was so well looked after and cared for. We came back to a ridiculously clean home and are just so grateful for all of AJ's hard work.”

“I could tell right away that I could trust Sierra with my 2 senior dogs, house, and chickens. On our first meeting she arrived promptly with a pad of paper and pen to take notes, asked great questions to learn what was needed and I could breathe a sigh of relief knowing everything and everyone was in good hands. She kept me updated while I was away and made sure everything was just right before we returned. House was clean, dogs were fed, chickens well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Sierra to anyone and will be calling on her in the future.”

“Here with another positive review for Bob! Bob watched our dog and house over Christmas holidays while we were out of the country; he did such a great job and we were so happy and relaxed knowing that our dog (who is a handful) and house were in good hands. Thank you bob!”

About: *About our place We are in the Cordata neighborhood. Rover map is incorrect! Our property is like a huge dog park! We have 3 treed and open fully fenced acres with a doggie door, covered deck, agility course, a pond for those that like to swim, plenty of toys, dog beds, room to dig and play and friendly dogs to play with. We have dogs, cats, and ducks (which are always penned up safely). We cannot take aggressive dogs or cat aggressive dogs. If your dog is reactive to other dogs we are unable to accommodate them. * About me I owned a grooming shop for 17 years and worked at a vet clinic for 15 years. I have also worked with multiple dog rescues over the years. I have experience with special needs dogs and those that require extra TLC. I only use positive reward based training. * Boarding For this option, your pup(s) will be staying in my home. I have dogs myself , so I ask for advanced notice of at least 72 hours before drop off because dogs coming last minute can be disruptive to our home life. Due to an unfortunate circumstance and privacy concerns with a potential client I no longer allow people inside my home for meet and greets. We can do meet and greets in our fenced back yard if you so choose. Meet and greets are not required. We often offer a trial day in lieu of a meet and greet as dogs act different when their owners leave and we want to see the true dog. I can only take a max of 2 dogs at once. If from different families I must know they dogs before they are allowed to interact with another family’s dog and be similar in age, temperament. All male dogs over a year must be neutered. No female dogs in heat. Dogs should be crate trained in the event of an emergency. If you have a puppy we can work on gentle crate training by feeding the pup in a crate and letting them out immediately after. The crate is always associated with something positive. We are not a kennel, this is our home and everyone’s safety is top priority. Your dog will be able to roam the house, sleep on the couch, use a doggie door to go in and out as they please and lots of playtime. We cannot hold spots available for you unless you reserve the spot. I adjust to your dog’s schedule. I do not expect them to adjust to mine. *Other Pets For this service we can also pet sit for more then just dogs. Caged animals such as birds, reptiles and small animals have their own private room. We have experience with snakes, bearded dragons, a variety of geckos, sugar gliders, rats, guinea pigs, bunnies, axolotls, and birds. Caged animals are NEVER allowed to intersect with other species or other animals they did not come with. We can feed, interact with and clean cages as necessary. The price is the same as our dog boarding fees due to the extra attention exotics need. **all pick ups must be no later than 6pm. If you are ruining late the dog or small animal can stay another day and you can pick up in the morning. *Housesitting- I do weekends only* For this option, I will provide drop ins during the day and stay overnight in your home. A meet and greet is required for this so we can go over food, dog’s or cats access in your home, potty break times, meds needing to be given etc. I can walk your dog during drop in times or play with your kitty. I am dog and human CPR/First Aid certified. I can do any type of medications your pet needs as well as feed any diet your dog or cat needs. *Doggie Daycare- Pick ups must be no later than 6pm. Your dog will have access to our huge backyard, they can swim in our pond or play in the baby pool. We have a small agility course and we do lure coursing. Plenty of my own dogs to run and play chase with. Due to our schedules we have the flexibility to give pets the time and energy they require. We don't use any harsh chemicals or pesticides on our property. We use beneficial nematodes in our yard to prevent fleas and other pests. My husband and I work opposite shifts so someone is always home. We have a doggie door so even the youngest pups can get outside to use the potty when they need. Our deck is separately fenced from our yard so they are always supervised. I treat all pets like family. I worked as a dog groomer and a vet tech for many years so I have a lot of experience. We can tailor the experience to fit your pup’s needs if necessary. While I do work, my husband and I work opposite shifts and my teenager does online school so someone is always home. We tailor our schedule to fit your dog’s needs. Dogs are welcome on our couch and we also have various dog beds for their comfort. My dogs are part of our family and your dogs will be cared for the same way.
