“Gloria showed up for me last minute when my sitter canceled and she did an amazing job with my dog! She was very accommodating and helpful with my dog’s special needs! I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Cate was wonderful and so well prepared. This was the first time leaving my pets over night with someone that’s not family and I had such a great experience. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for puppies, seniors, and high-energy dogs. I provide patient, loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I currently am working a very flexible job in Vancouver! I have open availability in the mornings, and evenings - and can even drop in mid day if needed! I also live in Kalama - so I am available for lots of locations due to my commute! I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, routines, exercise, enrichment, and lots of one-on-one attention so pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I am the certified "Babysitter & Auntie" for all of my friends doggos - and it's become my favorite job! It has also showed me all the different ways dog's need cared for! I try to make sure I am fully aware of all the needs and what their daily routine is to ensure that we have the best time when together!

“Violet was awesome with our pup. She kept us informed of everything going on. We would definitely work with her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Kelley! I’m a professional dog trainer with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. My journey started early. I began working at a veterinary office at just 15 years old as a kennel technician and assistant, where I built a strong foundation in animal care and behavior. From there, I expanded into training and spent 5 years in Hawaii working as a private contracted dog trainer, gaining extensive experience with a wide range of dogs and client needs. I mainly train basic to advanced obedience and service dog training but also have experience with training hunting/bird dogs and protection work. In 2020, I founded my own dog training business in Oregon, where I now provide customized, results-driven training programs. I work with dogs weekly through private sessions, as well as structured board-and-train programs. I also travel locally and to surrounding areas to support clients and ensure training carries over into real-life environments. I recently moved up to the WA side in Kalama. My property is fully set up with dogs in mind. I have a secure, fully fenced yard and dedicated training areas equipped with a wide variety of professional training tools. Dogs in my care receive structured training, enrichment, and appropriate socialization based on their individual temperament, goals, and needs. Whether your dog needs basic obedience, behavior modification, or a safe and structured place to stay while you’re away, I provide a reliable, experienced, and attentive approach to their care. I treat every dog like my own, focusing on building confidence, clear communication, and lasting results. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine since I run my dog training business full-time. My days are structured around the dogs in my care, including scheduled training sessions, exercise, enrichment, and rest time. Each dog follows a consistent routine that’s tailored to their individual needs-this can include structured walks, obedience training, socialization (when appropriate), and downtime to ensure they’re not overstimulated. Because I work from home and on my property, I’m able to provide constant supervision and hands-on care throughout the day. On a weekly basis, I rotate between private training sessions, board-and-train dogs, and client visits, so I’m always actively working with dogs in a structured and intentional way. This setup allows me to give each dog consistent attention, routine, and progress while they’re in my care. Care varies depending on the service, but all pets receive structured, attentive, and individualized care. In my home, dogs follow a consistent daily routine that includes exercise, training, enrichment, and rest. Because of my background as a professional trainer, I incorporate structure and clear communication into everything I do—whether that’s reinforcing good manners, working on specific training goals, or simply maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and are always supervised. Socialization is thoughtfully managed based on each dog’s temperament and comfort level. For board-and-train dogs, their stay includes daily hands-on training sessions tailored to their specific goals, along with structured routines that help build reliability and confidence. In clients’ homes, I aim to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible to reduce stress. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed, and any household rules the dog is used to. I also reinforce any training the owner is working on to maintain consistency. Across all services, my priority is safety, clear communication, and making sure each dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for.

“THANK YOU X 1000 for this weekend! It looks like Kali had a GREAT time and it took so much stress off our backs while we were gone. We can not begin to adequately express our appreciation 💕”

About: I’ve had many dogs over the years since I was little. Friends and family who’ve i’ve helped with their dogs on walks or sitting ! I’m currently seeking long term work in something more enjoyable for me. Would love to help with animals in the mean time and am available! I can easily follow any instructions or steps needed for their pets as well as make sure they have a good time with a companion.

“Erin is amazing! Our dog Stoney and 2 goats love her. When we had another sitter cancel on us last minute, Erin was available and jumped right into learning the ropes of our home and animals. Our dog gets so excited to see her when she comes over. I also really appreciate the open communication and pictures sent daily. She has given us a sense of relief knowing our pets are in good hands. She also always leave the house clean!”

“Absolutely amazing!!! We booked Mikki just a short time before a ten day wedding celebration and honeymoon. She was attentive, kind, communicative and took the best care of our pets. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

About: I've taken care of dogs pretty regularly, from chihuahuas to great danes. I work well with senior dogs just as well as energetic young dogs :) I'm an online graduate student with an internship in Vancouver, but my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm almost always open on weekends as well. Whatever fits you needs. I have a fenced in yard at home, and food is usually separated from my other pets' food and typical routines to limit interaction. At a clients home, I work hard to keep the home pristine and keep an eye on your pets wherever they go.

“Veronica took very good care of my two cats. I loved that she sent pictures of them every day. The litter boxes were clean and she kept the floor around them swept and clean. I will definitely continue to ask her to care for my babies.”

“Extremely appreciative and pleased with Ingrid's house sitting! She promptly responded to all messages, provided reassuring check-ins, and carefully looked after our neurotic (reactive) Mini Aussie.”

About: Hey there fury friends and owners! I'm Bailey and I love animals, I have car, dog, bird and farm animal experience. I would love to help youtake care of yours. I'm so looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for stopping by my page. My availability currently is pretty open. I’m available part-time on a weekly service-perhaps every couple days if needed. It all depends on the location and services needed. I’m unsure how many pets I’m willing to take on at the moment. I can’t help but speak to an animal in high pitch tones as well as full on conversation with them like they’re answering me! Anything to get a head twist or a butt wiggle.

“Thank you so much for watching my 3 dogs!! Especially since it was short notice, all the dogs are happy and healthy and the house looks amazing, really appreciate you!!!!”

About: I’ve owned animals since I was 10 and have cared for friends animals while they have been on travel. My animals are my family and are treated as such. I recently retired early and have time to spend at home with animals. Lots of land for exercise and all pets stay inside with me. I live on six acres with two dogs, two mini donkeys, a goat and a horse. The entire property is fenced with a barn and shelter for large animals.

“Krystal did an absolutely stellar job of watching my high energy and attention-loving golden retriever, Goose, on New Year's Eve. Not only was Goose immediately smitten with her, but Krystal went out of her way to guide me in setting the right booking details as a Rover first-timer, which I so greatly appreciated. She had no problem following all of my nervous rambling instructions, always responded super quickly, and was sure to send updates and pictures of Goose having an absolutely delightful time while I was gone for the evening. I'm so relieved to have found such a wonderful and experienced person to watch my sweet furry son in the future—we can't wait to book with Krystal again!”
