“Lindsay is fantastic! I am super impressed with her open communication, follow through, and ... most importantly, she hung out with Sam! I always feel bad leaving the cats when I am gone because they need love. I could see that they felt comfortable with her. She not only took care of them but gave them love!! Thank you, Lindsay!”


“Cory continues to take careful and loving care of my puppy Scout, who can be a handful. I come home to a happy and tired puppy in the evenings. Cory does a great job of letting him run and burn off energy!!”


“Katie was great! She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent so many cute pictures. Both of my cats appeared to enjoy her drop-in visits and got lots of cuddles and playtime. I will definitely book with Katie again in the future!”


“Jessilea has been truly a lifesaver as she was an urgent booking. She and her daughter have provided the most excellent care for my cats and have built multiple play forts for the cats to stay stimulated throughout the day. She also ensured the litter box, food and water were taken care of and has provided a lot of care and affection for my cats as if they were her own. I highly recommend her to any household with cats who want someone to step up and make a worry-free experience while away.”


“Sandra is such a sweetheart! She was great during the meet and greet, asked lots of questions and approached our cats gently - the more outgoing of our two kitties even trusted her for some belly rubs! While we were away, she was very communicative, and we felt confident our boys were in good hands. She did a great job and we would happily trust her to care for them again next time!”


“Logan is amazing! Great communication and very caring.”


“Shawn was great to have care for our cat while we were out of town. She was reliable, communicative, and felt she cared for our kitty like it was her own!”


About: Hi all! I am a lover of ALL animals based in the Kirkland area! I have two kitties of my own who are a sibling pair that are my absolute whole world! Unfortunately, I am allergic to most other animals with hair (including pups), which makes it impossible for them to be in my own home, BUT I am very active and love to interact with them outside of my home whenever possible! I am available for cat care drop ins or short term pup care (walks, park visits, potty breaks, etc.). In my personal life, I am a Pediatric Social Worker, so I am federally background checked, have no criminal record, a clean driving history, etc. I am flexible and able to take care of your house and pets as my own. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to interact with your fur babies!😍 I travel for work so have to schedule in advance if possible for pet care, but it never hurts to check availability! If I’m home, I can make it work! I operate from a place of high integrity, and always want the best for your home and pets. Rest assured, there will be strong communication with you, a safe and secure person coming to your home, and a compassionate and active interaction for your pet!

“Sterling and Beverly are fantastic! They're both wonderful people and took amazing care of our Brin. We even had an unexpected package of groceries show up which they were kind enough to drop off at a food bank.”


About: I own 2 high energy bengal cats, and I spend most of my time with them, doing their cat litter, feeding them, giving them the attention they need, and playing with them. I am home before moving back to New York for a few months, and I have a very flexible schedule. I am available every day of the week. I'm only available for care in your home, and I will be as responsible and as respectful of your space as I am with mine.

“Xinyu was extremely friendly, thoughtful, and took outstanding care of our three cats while we were away for a week. It is so nice to have someone who is so familiar with cat care looking after your cats. We received daily updates with cute pictures that brought us so much joy. Thank you, Xinyu!”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for jobs for multiple years, and I have had two happy doggies of my own for 10 years now. I exceed at a variety of jobs, dog-walking, house-sitting, playing with, and feeding neighbor’s pets. Giving them special treatment is easy for me, if this is an old pet who needs medicine or a rowdy puppy that wants 24/7 attention. I’m a college student at home for the summer, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I can handle early morning to late night jobs any day of the week. Safety is a top priority of mine. This means cleaning thoroughly, being aware of the pets emotional state, and taking extra care to follow specific details when walking, caretaking, and house-sitting.

About: With 7 years of experience living with and caring for cats, I understand their unique personalities and needs. I provide patient, loving care, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well-entertained. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or comforting a shy or senior cat, I tailor my care to each feline’s preferences. I ensure all litter boxes are clean and that food and water are refreshed every morning before I leave home. In the evening, I spend around 30 minutes playing and bonding with the cats to keep them happy and engaged. I have three cats at home who mostly relax in the living room and bedroom. Your cat is welcome to join them for companionship or stay comfortably in a private, unused bedroom for a quieter experience.

“Brandon was patient, reliable and had great communication. He took excellent care of our anxious pup. We would definitely recommend him. Thank you for your good care!”


About: Experienced with dogs both big and small, puppies and seniors, energetic and shy. Comfortable with dogs, cats, rodents, fish and amphibians. I’ve been watching pets for neighbors, friends and family for years. Currently home all summer so I’ll have plenty of time to attend to any pet care needs. I’m available for short visits, walks, and overnight care. I care for your pets just like you do— with love, patience, and lots of attention! While you're away, I stick to their usual routine to keep them comfy and happy. Whether it's playtime, walks, meals, or snuggles, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home in their space. Your pet’s happiness (and your peace of mind!) is always my priority. You can count on me for updates and photos when you’re missing your pet.

About: Hi families, my name is Audrey! I have been working with dogs and cats professionally for about two years now, and I also have a dog of my own (age 10 years) that I grew up with! I work full time as a nanny and babysitter, so I have a lot of experience working with other people's dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I also currently work as a dog walker for two pups during the weekdays, and I'm confident in my ability to walk up to 2 dogs at a time. Please feel free to contact me if you are in need of a dog walker or a pet sitter - I'd love to connect! I am available for dog walking in the early mornings and occasionally in the evenings. I work part-time so I can be available for dog sitting in the evenings (weekends may work best!) I am friendly and trustworthy, and I love animals! I am easygoing and get along great with dogs and cats with friendly demeanors. Please feel free to get in touch!

“Natalie is super nice, friendly and helpful! She was very good with my dog. I'm really glad I got to meet her and hope to get her help again in future, thank you!”


About: 2025 Update: I only board small and tiny dogs at my home. I offer housesit, daycare, & drop in services at a discounted rate for homes with fenced yards when I am allowed to bring small & friendly dogs. The majority of the dogs have been with me for years and are very familiar with each other too. I also train the dogs (& they train each other!). I don’t keep more than 3-4 little dogs at my home. I don’t crate the dogs (ever). They roam freely in my home 24/7. I offer free pick up, delivery, and baths, as needed. I’m extremely flexible with time frames (early or late) I will housesit small and medium sized dogs per my availability. I ALWAYS have small dogs staying with me so you must be okay with them accompanying me. If I already have 3-4 small dogs booked during your travel dates, I can still accommodate your needs by housesitting but you must have a secure yard. I can help to secure it if needed. I stay with them 24/7 & bring all of my own linens, groceries, supplies, etc. I will block off an area of the house downstairs closest to the yard door that we will use. I roll up rugs and drape furniture with blankets so everything’s protected. Providing quality pet care is my passion! I specialize in spoiling pets & gently train puppies effectively (as a perk if needed). You will receive excellent photographs & videos of your pet/s from me each day. (I stay with them 24/7) I have no other jobs, commitments, animals, children, etc. so I am all about your pets the entire time! Only spring water is given. I am a very conscientious person with plenty of common sense! I also have a huge heart for animals. I want you to have complete peace of mind while away and absolute confidence that your pet/s are receiving the most tender loving care. I LOVE all animals, genuinely. I strive to give your pet/s the best exclusive care around the clock. I'm very present during any stay - proactive and consistent with their care, walks, meals, naps, hugs, etc. They are never unattended in a yard. I am always present to observe and keep them safe. I provide personalized care to each animal. I'm tuned in to their unique personalities & needs. I offer treats and toys per your approval. I'm holistic minded- paying close attention to their health & choose natural high quality products. I also cook them healthy meals that they love (if allowed). I can provide freeze dried raw treats which contain probiotics as an ingredient to keep them regular. I can't remember a time when I didn't have a dog in my life! Growing up with dogs, I learned what it takes to properly care for them at a young age. I've always been very responsible with my pets. My beautiful girl, Cuddles crossed the rainbow bridge at age 15 (2016). I had her since she was just a few weeks old & she had always been extremely well taken care of. People appreciated her youthful & cheerful spirit, often mistaking her for a puppy, even as a senior. I cooked healthy stews for her & gave her spring water. I walked her often & hardly ever left home without her! I only accepted positions that allowed her to accompany me. She was always happy & got along beautifully with all animals & humans. She slept in my bed on soft linens & was hand fed at times. I'm the queen of spoiling! That's partly why I so enjoy this work...it's been very healing for me as far as missing her! Hugs & kisses are given abundantly as well as loving words of reassurance, encouragement, and pet massages! Your pet/s will receive the same level of care & compassion I gave to my own. I'll honor all of your wishes & care instructions joyfully at all times. I have a site & PDF full of excellent reference letters/ detailed information that I'm happy to share with you about my experience per your request. I promise to give your pet/s lots of love, attention, keep them safe, well fed, hydrated & walked as often as needed. I'm very active, attentive, intuitive, & truly care from the heart about every animal dependent upon me. It is very rewarding work & I am fortunate to be blessed with each new assignment. I consider every connection a divine one. HOUSESITTING CLIENTS: I provide my own bedding/towels (groceries) & wash all linens/dishes I've used plus leave your home cleaner than when I arrived! I will share updates/photos/videos daily by text or email per your preference. I have managed estates, overseeing household staff of large homes and worked for many years as a trusted nanny for children from newborns to teenage! (excellent track record). I'm highly respectful of privacy and personal belongings. I'm happy to share my reviews on several other sites and will consider long term assignments/offers. Thank you for your interest. Fortunately, I am blessed to do the things I love from anywhere and have no time constraints. I’m an artist and a poet who creates my own schedule. I like to work on my writing and painting while listening to relaxing music. I also love to be in nature walking with dogs. Safety always comes first! I learned this when caring for newborn babies plus children of all ages as a professional nanny for over 20 years & I apply the same principles to the animals!

About: I’ve helped take care of my late dog for 15 and a half years by walking, feeding, playing, training, and giving lots of cuddling! I have also worked on training like learning new tricks (sit, shake, down, stay). I am also comfortable with senior care such as picking them up to go up and down the stairs and giving medication when needed. I do have a full time job, but I do go back home for lunch everyday for an hour. I am available more on the weekend's for walking during the evenings/drop ins on the weekdays. But everything can be changed depending on schedules on both sides. My mom and I also work together to take care of dogs and she works from home most of the week. We are a dream team! Boarding can be anytime! In my home, I have a big backyard with a fence, a doggy door for smaller dogs, and a spacious home for your dog to have all the room to play. I love to play fetch or tug of war with dogs. I believe playing is the best thing for exercise and plain fun! Rest is also important in a dog’s routine. Whatever the owner wants for their dog, I will give!

About: I've watched fur- and plantbabies of various ages and levels of care needed. With thorough instructions and recommendations, you can be confident your beloveds are in good hands. I don’t have a 9-5, so with enough of a heads up, I can be available morning and evenings or extended sitting stays most weeks these days. I like to keep pets I'm sitting for on the same schedule or closest possible their owners keep them as to not disrupt their lives.

Brenna P.
“I highly recommend Brenna Pirozok to be an animal caregiver for Rover. She is incredibly reliable—always on time and takes the time to really get to know the animal she’s caring for by asking the owner detailed questions about their habits, favorite toys, and other details that will ensure Brenna can follow the pet’s normal routine as much as possible to limit anxiety and loneliness.Brenna has a natural understanding of animal behavior and takes the time to ensure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. She is calm and patient with pets to ensure she earns their trust on their time. One of the things I appreciate most is her consistent communication—she always sends thoughtful updates, complete with photos and notes that reassure you your pet is in great hands. Brenna is a true professional and an animal lover through and through, and I could not recommend her highly enough.”

Evelyn Z.
“Evelyn provided care for Bilbo, our elderly, deaf, asthmatic cat for several weeks during various family vacations. Bilbo is very people oriented, getting lonely without friends and family. Evelyn visited Bilbo twice a day for litterbox cleaning, feeding, asthma inhaler medication, and snuggle time. Evelyn is very conscientious, taking good notes, and reading them back for any clarification needed. Evelyn was a quick study learning to give Bilbo his asthma inhaler medication. Evelyn is very communicative, asks good questions, and provides text updates after every visit. Evelyn is responsible, trustworthy, and committed to providing quality care. I highly recommend Evelyn to care for any member of your furry family.”

Audrey E.
“Audrey has grown up around pets all her life. She’s had experience caring for hamsters, a guinea pig, salamanders, dogs big and small, cats, and even helped nurse a baby squirrel until it had refuge. Her care and love for them is evident and they respond with love for her in return. She’s a strong advocate for them when they are in need. Her intuition, empathy, and determination are what give her the skills to be an excellent caregiver to animals. I trust and recommend her wholeheartedly to take care of your babies.”


Audrey K.
“Audrey has been our dog walker for a few months and she’s been fantastic. Audrey is friendly, professional, trustworthy, and reliable.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Audrey for pet care.”

Gaby R.
“Gaby and Daniel took excellent care of our dog and our house over a long weekend. Our dog was in great shape when we arrived a home that was left quite tidy. We got photos throughout the weekend, too!”


Athena H.
