Pet care experience

Friend to all animals!

I am a friend to all dogs I come across. They are my favorite kind of creatures. Though I really love cats too and all animals for that matter! I have good boundaries and will be firm but also very loving, and am good at dealing with any kind of neuroses that pets can have! I lost my dog to cancer a few years ago, and then my sweet kitty a bit after that. I'm not ready to have my own animal friends again yet, but love caring for other peoples creatures as much as I can! I love going for long walks or runs if your pup has a lot of energy, so I am happy to just come over for walks with your dogs, or have them over to my house if you are heading out of town. I can do house sitting and animal care at your house as well. This includes plant watering and keeping your house tidy. I’ve done dog sitting for many families over the past 7 years living in Olympia, (and some years in Seattle before that) though now I've moved just outside of Shelton. I have great references that I would love to share with you if you’d like. Thanks for reading! Please contact me with any questions.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a yard, but no fence yet. So I always supervise dogs while they are out in the yard, on leash if needed. I live in a rural area with lots of good places to walk as well as a lake for the dogs to explore a couple blocks away.

Frankie is the absolute best! We really felt like our pup was in great hands this week and appreciated the thoughtful updates and photos. Frankie went above and beyond to find ways to get some of Clovers puppy energy out and we always came home to a happy and safe dog. We would totally love to use Frankie again and highly recommend her!

Frankie was amazing with our pup and kept us updated regularly while we were on our trip. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Our senior dog loves Frankie, so when we adopted a younger dog, we didn’t hesitate to reach out to Frankie. No surprise that our new dog loves her, too. :-)

Frankie did a fantastic job tending to my cats and all my chickens. She kept me updated and informed and sent photos and videos of my pets to let me know they were all alive and well. Frankie had no reservations about caring for a very aggressive rooster either. I would definitely hire Frankie again. She seems to truly love all animals. Plus she is very responsible and trustworthy. Exactly the type of person you want caring for your pets when your away from home

We had an wonderful experience with Frankie! She had excellent communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was super friendly and accommodating. My cranky and spoiled dog is very particular about her likes/dislikes, schedules, food, people, etc, and this was her first long sit in a few years but Frankie took it all in stride! We'd certainly recommend her and wouldn't hesitate to book her again.

Let me know if you're animal has any special needs, and we can figure it out! I like to know detailed food instructions, and any medication needs. As well as how much exercise the dog needs, and anything that can help your pet feel more at ease and happy.
