House Sitting in Manzanita

About: Hello there! I’ve worked almost 4 years at a local animal rescue and have tons of experience caring for many different dogs (and cats) with varying ages, temperaments, personalities, and needs. I love them all! And almost always, they end up loving me! For 2 yrs I’ve been apart of a professional animal behavioral team that works with a certified trainer and behavioralist assessing some of our rescue’s more misunderstood dogs. Having a vet clinic at our rescue, I have plenty of experience medicating both dogs and cats. And caring for animals with special needs. I understand that our pets are our family and I treat every animal with total unconditional love and respect. I’ve had my dog for 8 yrs and she’s my everything.

About: Hi, I'm Julia! Caring for and connecting with animals is a life passion and purpose of mine. I crave animal companionship but don’t have any pets of my own, so I’d love to care for yours. I adore and am confident caring for all kinds of creatures…and they love me, too! I have tons of experience with big dogs, puppies, anxious dogs, disabled animals, and all types of cat personalities. Even goats, horses, cows, rabbits, reptiles, and rodents all become my friends! I’m a big hiker/runner/outdoors-woman, and would love to take your doggo on hikes or long walks. Got an athletic pup who needs a good run during the day? I've got you! A small pup who just needs cuddles and company? I'm game! I can't wait to meet and care for your beloved fur friends. My schedule is very flexible. I’m frequently outside hiking and running, and would love bring your dog along, or I’m happy to hang in the backyard…or on the couch! I can care for your animals however they need to be tended to. I usually to keep a new animal friends within eyesight at all times, unless they are napping.

“Jess did such an amazing job house sitting for our two dogs and two cats. She left the house in better condition than we left it and the animals were all happy and healthy upon our return.”

About: Since being on my own, I have had some fur baby in my life. Both puppies and elders will be well loved here. We have a deep relationship with our own animals. All are fully vaccinated and attend their annual health checks. We also love on them when they ask us to, meeting their mental health needs as well. Husband is still working from home with no return to the office in sight. And we are a currently a multi-generational home. There will always be some human here to care for your furry family member. We have a huge, secure, fenced backyard and two dogs of our own. Your pup will be well exercised here and will come home exhausted (and maybe a little dirty). We also love cuddling with our fur babies, and will welcome any (reasonably sized) dogs onto our bed if that is where they feel comfortable, or we have room for a crate or any dog bed you want to bring. We feed our pooches 3x a day. But we find that most guests have a 2x per day routine, and will continue to hold your home routine. We also give oral medication to one of our pups, once a day.

About: I've had multiple dogs for over 15 years, including Border Collies, Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Australian Cattle Dogs, Labs, Australian Shepherds, and Pit Bulls. For over 6 years, I've dog-sat for friends and family while caring for my own dogs. I've walked, fed, bathed, and played with dogs. I love dogs and want to provide peace of mind for those needing help and support watching their fur babies. I work an 8-5 but I’m happy to swing by and take pets out in the mornings, afternoons or evenings I’m also available to board/house sit on some weekends as well. I have an unfenced yard and take my dog on a walks daily as well as routine potty breaks. Josie and I also go to dog parks or do puppy play dates with other dogs on a weekly basis.

About: Hello! My name is Danielle. Thank you so much for considering me to care for and walk your beloved pooch! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions or feel like I may be a good fit. I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I'm particularly experienced with large breed dogs and understand their unique needs, from daily exercise to gentle discipline and lots of love. What sets me apart is my calm, confident approach and genuine passion for canine companionship. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies or older dogs who need a little extra patience and care, I’m ready to provide reliable, loving support. I've recently returned to the United States after living abroad, and as such, I have a completely open schedule. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent, attentive care whenever needed. I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure to maintain a calm, secure environment. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 8 years old, and I truly love animals of all kinds, big dogs, small dogs, energetic puppies, senior pets, and cats with every personality imaginable. Every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love, and that’s exactly what I provide. As a college student who takes classes online, I’m home most of the day, which means your pet will receive constant supervision, companionship, and attention. They will never feel ignored or left alone for long periods. I provide multiple walks each day, plenty of playtime, and a calm, safe environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I also send frequent photo and message updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away, almost like your pet never left your side. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, safe, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention for pets throughout the day. I attend church on Sunday mornings but return shortly after, so pets are never left alone for long. I’m available for boarding most days and offer flexible scheduling to fit your needs and convenience. What to expect: Your pet will stay in a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and explore. We have a securely gated two-acre property with a private trail in the backyard and lots of grassy areas where pets can run, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors safely under supervision. My goal is to give pets a fun, active, and loving stay while making owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. Your pet will be very safe because I only let them free range run when I close the gate so they can’t run too far and I’ll have perfect view of them.

About: My love for animals started when I was a little girl. Animals have always been my go to for happiness comfort and love. Meeting new animals always brings me joy. I understand the trust and responsibility that comes with taking care of someone's fur babies. I'm an open book I'm currently going to school online so I have a completely flexible schedule and can't wait for this new venture in my life I prefer not to care for animals in my own home. I have an older relative that's very particular about his house and doesn't allow pets

About: I grew up with animals all my life! Dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, etc. Your fur babies will be in good hands, let me take care of them 🥰 I’m currently working part-time! The 3-4 days a week I do work it’s between 9:30-3:30. I definitely have enough time in the day whether I’m working or not to come take care of your pets! :) I know everyone has different ways of caring for their fur babies, so just let me know your preferences and I’ll accommodate them! I do have 2 cats, so if your pet needs to stay at our home, I just ask that they are pet friendly or atleast can tolerate cats so my child is comfortable as well.

About: Since I was 9 I have grown up with bunnies, dogs, and guinea pigs! It was early morning feeds, cleaning cage and the most fun part of it all was playing, cuddling and loving on the animals. When I turned 16 in school for extra credits I volunteered at a animal shelter in Bothell WA and loved every minute of it! Especially one day when a cat would not eat and I decided to go in the cage and just talk to the cat and gentle touches and took some food into my hand and eventually the cat started eating!! From that moment every chance I could I would walk, feed, clean, bath and play with the neighbors dogs, cats even horses!! So as you can tell I have some experience with animals and the love and companion and care as well as patience. I have also trained a few of my friends dogs the basic behaviors as well as my own! I'm not an expert but I do have the ability and patience to help with unwanted behaviors like barking, sitting, laying down, no jump, easy, wait, and I learned it all on you-tube! This is why I am trying a different path in my life and I just wanna show all the care I have for these furry friends and as well as the owners because it all starts with good customer service!! I am reliable understanding of schedules and want to meet everyone's needs to the best of my abilities because in the end its about the care and needs of your furry loved ones!!! Thank you and hope to meet you furrry-soon!!! My schedule is your schedule! If it works than it works if not we will find a solution and make it work!! I am open to any schedule!! If the need is my home, I have a fenced backyard its not a big yard but it is plenty to run and get that energy out. I have 2 dogs and a cat but I can separate if needed I am very alert and will be there always to keep an out out as well as just playing. Its all about communicating and letting me know as well how you would like to see things if the care is at my home! Always open to suggestions! Animals are like kids they have needs and I want to know so I can care for them the best way but of course no one can care for them like their owner!!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 10 years, providing consistent, attentive care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering oral medications, light grooming such as brushing, and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra exercise, gentle care, or simply companionship. I am currently working 5 days a week, and will be available on my days off. I miss dog sitting/dog walking as a hobby and would love to start doing it again. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at my house, so I prefer to take care of the pets at the owners home. I would care for them by playing, taking them outside as needed, staying on a feeding schedule and possibly bathing if the owners request !
