“Elena is amazing. I think our doggy, Utah was in heaven. She walked him and played with him and even took him to the river. She sent me picture and video updates 😍 I highly recommend her and will definitely check with her next time I need a sitter.”

“We were very nervous using Rover, but Erica put our mind at ease. She took great care of our house and two dogs. We got pictures of everything and she was great about coming before hand so I could meet her.”

“Tatum was wonderful. She took exceptional care of our dogs and left the apartment exactly how we left it. Great attention to detail regarding care instructions and exceptional communication. Highly recommend.”
“We love when Anna Lee stays with our pups! She is so attentive to their habits and needs, and they have clearly claimed her as part of their pack! She takes excellent care of our home, leaving it as good (if not better) than when we left. It's such a gift to be able to get away and not worry about our "krds" or home!”

“Rachel was amazing. We contacted her day of so it was pretty short notice and she made herself available and was on time. She was kind and patient and caring. Otis adored her. She has a lot of experience and knowledge. I felt totally comfortable with her in our home and would absolutely ask her to dog sit for us again. Ty Rachel!”

About: I am an animal mom of several years of cats, dogs. I have two cats and I did have a dog. I know of the general care of animals. I go above and beyond taking them in as my own. I respect their personal boundaries. I would have to come to you. I do work full time in the evenings from Tuesday to Friday generally from 3-11pm. For dogs walking ill take them on hour long walks, if we find a field ill play fetch. I am very good at following instructions to a tee. As well as administratoring meds. I am very comfortable with that. Hey I'm working full-time in the evening. Usually tuesday through friday from 3-11, but I am home every morning and weekends. I cant wait to share my space with your furry babies. I do live in an apartment, so for dog care I would come to you. I also have two cats that are cat and dog friendly.
About: I was born and raised on a farm so I have raised many different kinds of livestock and house pets. Animal care is one of my favorite things about living on the farm and I will treat your furry family members as one of my own. I am currently working a 4 days a week, 10 hours a day. I am able to get away during the work day for about an hour, so in that time I can come and let your pet out to potty or give them more food. On the days I am not working, I am completely free to be with your pet for as long as you need me. I will vary my care based on the situation you have at your home and on your pets temperment (ex. going to the park, walking on the sidewalk, or sticking to the yard).

Everything was clean upon our return and the pets looked like they just had a vacation too :-) Highly recommend Joey and hope to be able have him watch our pet family again!”

About: We have experience with all types of animals! Right now we currently own 2 rabbits, a cat, and 2 dogs, one of the dogs is a senior, and requires daily medication. We also have experience with large animals, Shelby (my partner) owns horses. Overall we have cared for various types of pets throughout the years, and love all types of animals! I am working part time, and she goes to Washington State University all in Spokane, so we will have plenty of time to cater to all of your pet needs! We can walk your pets in low traffic areas, or are more than happy to walk them on trails away from any potential hazards if you would prefer that! We carefully monitor interactions between our own different types of animals to avoid any altercations, which we will also do with your pets! Safety is our #1 priority with ALL pets!
About: I’ve grown up with a wide variety of pets and have been missing hanging out with furry friends since moving into my dorm this year. I have experience both owning and looking after pets at every age, from puppies to elderly dogs (who will forever be puppies in my heart). I’m also experienced with giving dogs medicine. Pets hold a special connection with us and they deserve the best most attentive care during their whole lives. I am a senior in college so my schedule is relatively relaxed. Typically my days consist of no more than 2 in person classes, giving me time in the mornings and evenings either before or after class. Though I cannot offer housing myself I can easily look after your pet in the comfort of their own home. I always request meeting with you prior to sitting in order to become accustomed to your style of pet parenting and insure I am able to give your pets the exact type of care they need. This can range from regular walks, feedings at specific times, or even just spending time with an anxious pet. I will always do whatever possible to make your furry friend as comfortable and happy as they can be!
“Tierra was very good to work with and the dogs just loved her. We will use her again. She stayed at our home and sent pictures and updates on the dogs. She also let us know if she had a concern.”

About: I worked in dog grooming for a decade, and I do miss the dogs, often. I will be happy to help regardless of breed or size. I have open availability in my schedule. I work with many different service partners, and can easily adjust my schedule, with proper notice, of course. Dogs will be played with, of course! I will run them, depending on age and whether they like that. Feed them, walk them. Cats will get nozzles and pets
About: I have particular experience with pets that have medical needs, from pills and eye drops to suppositories and mid-seizure intervention. Lots of money gets spent caring for pets and my care reflects that. It’s that time of year in which free time is abundant! For now, pet care is the centerpiece of my schedule / routine. Anything else can be scheduled around it. The key thing here to me is to focus intently on how the owners / pet parents have already succeeded thus far and to maintain as much consistency from their pet’s perspective as I reasonably can.
“Lisa was wonderful to work with both leading up to our trip, and the entire week we were gone. She was so accommodating to any request we had and provided frequent photos, videos and updates for how our dog was doing. We came home to a clean house with a happy/tired dog. We will definitely use Lisa again in the future.”

About: I have over 5 years of experience taking care of all sorts and sizes of dogs, as well as cats. I always make sure the animals I take care of have the best possible environment to ensure a happy and healthy result. :) I’m currently planning on doing this full time until I find a new part-time job. I will continue to do petsitting on the side regardless. It’s my passion so it is my priority. :) I will make sure your dog is safe in your home, since I only offer in clients home sitting. They will be well cared for and I will make sure they are looked out for and content. I want your dogs to be as happy as they can be!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child. I even helped my dad to bring baby puppies to born. I know basic trainings since I have had German Shepherds and Labradors all my life. I am a dog lover. I’m a stay home mom. I study my MS online so I’m home mostly so it’s convenient for me to watch dogs in my house or go to your house still can do that. I have a huge fence yard with sweet Labradors Who they can play with I have cages as well. If they are used to them I am an online full time student from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies staying at home with them. 🙂 I have a huge backyard with safety fence all closed and secure and when the pups are inside the house they spent time with us. My husband and my two boys helped me as well when they are home.

About: I spent 3 years working at Camp Best Friends in Los Angeles, caring for dogs in a busy boarding environment — from playful puppies to shy seniors. I work a flexible schedule so your pet won't be alone long or have to go without a potty break. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection. I’m intentional about morning and evening walks, feeding times, enrichment, and check-ins throughout the day. With three years of experience working at Camp Best Friends in Los Angeles, I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets, maintaining structured schedules, and adapting to different energy levels and needs. I prioritize reliability and clear communication so pet parents feel confident their animals are well cared for. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and follow all care instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise preferences, and household rules. I aim to keep pets on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owners are away. In my home, I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I supervise interactions closely. I’m experienced in reading animal body language, monitoring for signs of stress or illness, and ensuring each pet feels secure and loved. My background at Camp Best Friends gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs — including senior dogs and anxious pets. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your animal, and I take that responsibility seriously.
