Cat Sitting in Hite Center

“Clarrissa really helped my dog warm up to her quickly. That is not always an easy thing with this particular dog. She has great communication with me too.”

About: I have a lifelong passion for animals, especially dogs, having grown up surrounded by them. In addition to raising family pets, I've cherished my Australian shepherd, Olly, for 7 years, and when I met my now husband he brought a wonderful border Collie mix, 3 years ago, but has owned him for 8 years. We've filled their lives with love through daily walks, outdoor adventures like hiking and camping, and endless exploration. Olly I trained from a puppy and Hank was adopted at 3 and at 11 now he is still learning new tricks! Throughout caring for Olly and Hank, I've also opened our home to friends' pets, treating them with the same affection and care. I'm excited to extend this love and commitment to your dogs, whether through dog walking, drop-ins, or boarding! I work in the office two days a week, but otherwise I work from home! So two of the days maybe longer time before getting let out. We love first and foremost, so that they feel welcomed. We will read their energy to make sure they feel calm and not stressed when they are here. We will provide great exercise and loads of cuddles.

“Hannah was able to bond with my kitty who has a difficult time trusting strangers. That makes me feel that all is well. She is good! 👍”

“It was our first time using the Rover app, and we were very impressed with Solace. She took great care of our cat who needs medication. We felt at ease leaving him knowing she should would give him attention daily in addition to his specific diet/ meds. Kept his littler box and food area clean.”

“Amanda is always amazing! She has checked on my cats and chickens for me two or three times now, and she never disappoints! Her updates are thorough, she shares adorable pictures of my babies, and even feeds snacks to the chickens sometimes. They are used to our kitchen scraps on a daily basis, so I'm sure they really apperciate the snacks she gives while we are gone. 😊 The cats love her and love her attention. She hangs out the full half hour to give them the love they crave while we are gone. I couldn't apperciate her more!”

“Maralee was great, our cats came out for her and I loved getting the texted photos each day. She has agreed to watch them two more times.”

“We are so grateful for Lisa! Because of her, our dear cats were able to receive high-quality, consistent care. Before we left, she met us in person to understand our needs, as well as Sunny and Pebbles’ needs. Every day we looked forward to seeing Lisa’s Rover card, which showed us pictures and gave us an update on the cats. We feel very comfortable with Lisa and pleased to know we can turn to her if we need someone to care for our beloved kitties. Thank you, Rover, for this service and for connecting us with Lisa! :-)”

About: I have taken care of my own pets (two cats and a dog), as well as those of my friends and neighbors since I was a child. I am experienced with reactive and anxious dogs, and am experienced in administering medication. I can take your dog on long walks (5+ miles) and hikes if that’s their thing. I will always give your pets the same care and affection I give my own! My work schedule is extremely flexible. Most of my work obligations are mid-morning, and the rest of my day/evening is free. I walk several miles per day on my own, and would love to bring your dog (or cat!) along with me. I will show your pet the same love and affection I give to my own pets. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness are my top priority, and I will adjust my services to fit their individual needs.

“She did great checking on Honey for me!”

About: Kitsap county native and recent college graduate I have flexible hours and am excited to meet your pets! Growing up with two high energy rat terriers, I have experience caring for both puppies as well as senior animals who need that extra patience and calm reassurance. Living in Kitsap county provides many opportunities for dog walking adventures. I am currently located in Seabeck which provides numerous trail walking options and am familiar with trails in the Silverdale and E. Bremerton areas as well. I am also more than happy to walk them around your own neighborhood if that is preferred. Additionally, I am happy to do simple drop-ins during the day just to make sure your pets are happy and content. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I am currently between jobs and thus have a very flexible schedule when it comes to pet sitting. When an animal is in my care, they are my priority. When caring for pets, I try to make sure they get plenty of exercise and time outdoors if possible. If the weather is bad or the pet isn’t allowed outside, I make sure to keep them entertained with toys and other enrichment activities.

“Grace is the best with our little guys and they love her! She communicates well, follows all instructions, and always sends photos.”

About: Hi! I’m Caryn (CAR-in), a former zookeeper, professional animal trainer, and lifelong dog lover. With over a decade of professional experience working with animals, from marine mammals and birds to large carnivores, I now focus my passion and expertise on providing compassionate, confidence-building care for dogs of all ages and temperaments. I’ve worked with the Seattle Aquarium, Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium, and Seattle Humane Society, and I bring a strong foundation in behavior observation, positive reinforcement training, and safe medication handling to every pup I meet. At home, I share life with two dogs who fill my days with joy, gentle chaos, and the kind of perspective only a dog can offer: Tucker, our 65 lb. soulful and cuddly Boxador who happens to be dog-reactive, and Cooper, our 40 lb. playful Hound/Boxer/Boston mix who proudly strutted his stuff in the 2023 Puppy Bowl. Living with a reactive dog has deepened my understanding of behavior, communication, and how powerful patience and empathy can be. I also had the honor of growing alongside Max, our beloved senior miniature schnauzer, who lived to 18 and reminded me daily of the grace and tenderness senior dogs deserve. I offer tailored, loving care for your pet, whether they're curious puppies discovering the world or seasoned seniors needing extra comfort and support. Outside of pet care, I’m an artist and nature lover who enjoys trail running, exploring, and creating artwork inspired by nature. I bring that same sensitivity and presence into every visit, tuning in to the little quirks and big personalities that make each dog unique. From enrichment games to cozy snuggles or jogs around the block, I’m here to provide experienced, heartfelt care tailored just for your dog. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, focused care throughout the day. I'm available every day between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM for walks, runs, play sessions, check-ins, and quiet companionship - whatever suits your pet’s needs and energy level. Whether your pet thrives on enrichment and exercise or just needs a steady, reassuring presence, I’ve got you covered. Safety, trust, and comfort are at the heart of every visit. In your home, I take the time to understand each pet’s unique routines, preferences, and emotional needs, from where they feel safe resting to how they like to be approached. Whether I’m providing enrichment, administering medication, or simply offering a calming presence, I always prioritize gentle communication, consent-based interactions, and low-stress handling. My background in behavior observation and positive reinforcement helps me read subtle cues and respond thoughtfully, especially with nervous, reactive, or senior pets. Everything I do, from locking up carefully to maintaining clean, familiar routines, I care for your pet and home as if they were my own. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I’m always happy to share a note or photo about your pet’s day, if that brings you peace of mind.

“Valerie is amazing! We were lucky enough that she was able to do a couple of very last minute drop-in visits, and our dog was immediately at ease with her. Valerie was also great with communication during her visits, which gave me the peace of mind that our dog was in good hands.”

“I cannot recommend Chuck enough. Great partner to take care of my cats while I was out. I’ll certainly be using his services in the future. Thanks, Chuck!”

About: Currently doing drops in visits and walks (dogs and cats). Feeding, yard time, play, brushing, watering, all the good drop in stuff. I have experience walking dogs of all breeds and sizes (10-200 lbs). I learned a great deal about healthy mobility as I had to rehab my pup at adoption. I also have 2 cats at home and love playing and cuddling (when they let me) with them. Happy to care for other types of pets but will need clear instructions. :) I work remotely and mostly for myself right now so I have pretty good flexibility to drop in or walk your pups. During the week I can walk or drop on Mon, Wed, Fri and the weekend. - Front yard is fenced and 4 feet high; 2 large water bowls - Back yard is fenced and 6 feet high; 1 large water bowl - Dogs are fed separately from each other - I'm mindful of what toys are out to avoid resource guarding related mishaps.

About: Your dog’s new favorite human! Big walks, belly rubs, playtime galore, and photo updates where tails wag, zoomies happen, and every pup feels like family. 🐾 Pet care blends perfectly into my daily routine I prioritize walks, playtime, and check-ins, ensuring consistent, loving attention that keeps pets happy, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾 Paws, play, and love delivered at your place, mine, or around the neighborhood, every pet feels spoiled and safe. 🐾 I provide loving, personalized care for your pet whether at your home, mine, or on a walk filling each visit with play, cuddles, fun, and peace of mind. 🐾

“Stephanie did a great job with our kitties - we have an unusual set-up with particular cats and Stephanie worked hard, and with compassion and grace in a complicated situation. Great communication and regularly timed visits. Thank you!!”
