“She’s walked our girl at least three times now and it’s gone well every time. She puts in the extra effort for the animals.”

About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.

“She took care of my babies when I went to Hawaii. After the first day she hurt her leg and was very upfront with me about it, even asking if I wanted to use someone else. I chose to stick with her and she let my dogs out to potty the whole week even on crutches. Honest and reliable person!”

About: Currently raising my 4th puppy a Newfoundland name Freydis , raised a frenchie and 2 newfies prior. The bigger the dog the better. Please keep in mind I don’t drive or have a car but I do have and ebike. Easily accepting Redmond/Kirkland/Woodinville/Bothell jobs. I work full time Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday 6:30am-3:00pm. I am free all times outside of that. I’m able to do one offs but I would prefer something ongoing. Prefer to bring my friendly potty trained puppy but understand if that’s not your pets/babies vibe. Hyper aware of dangerous floor items, dangerous foods, what toys aren’t appropriate and why, what collars and harness are are good for what. I want my animals to eat the best items, play with toys that won’t hurt them and make them the happiest babies so they live the longest. Your animals aren’t JUST pets they are our world!

About: I grew up with golden retrievers and dobermans, and have a profound love for all dogs. I took a one year online and in person course for basic dog obedience training with Animal Behavior College. I enjoy taking my pups on hikes, swimming, and to parks where they can play.

I'm a stay at home mom (I was previously a HS teacher), and my days are typically spent outdoors with my dogs and kiddos (weather permitting). So my schedule is very flexible! I have a fully fenced yard, and a house with plenty of room for the dogs to romp. I also have a designated area for my cats, whenever they’re wanting to get away from the dogs, so for in home pet sitting, your cat(s) can have a safe place to decompress and not be overwhelmed with dogs. I can easily crate dogs if needed, but my dogs usually have free run of the house, and your dog(s) can too! My dogs get along with animals of all kinds, and are very gentle and friendly.

About: I grew up in a household taking care of many different types of animals. Dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, caged birds, as well as livestock such as chickens, various fowl and goats. My dog walking and sitting experience includes caring many rescues since I was a small child.
