About: I grew up with a golden retriever and two cats in my home, where my love for animals started! I’ve watched pets for neighbors and friends along the way. I also trained a corgi from puppyhood to adulthood (whew! that was hard), a Pyrenees, and had two cats on my own! Training classes I have taken with pets include puppy 101, recall, and aggressive dog training. I focus on positive support training and reinforcement to create a comfortable space for me and your pet. I have a great understanding that all pets a like need stability, structure, lots of playtime and cuddles. I recently moved from Minneapolis to Seattle with my kitty, Mazik to the Wallingford neighborhood. I am looking for something gigs in between my day job (8-5 M-F). I am hoping to connect with some pet parents and help some families out! I am working a full time job Monday through Friday. My days are sometimes open due to the work load but will change. I am open to drop ins if they are close enough to me! I am mostly open early mornings, evenings, and weekends! This includes overnights! I will follow the routine for your pet specifically to create a safe space with me! Any training required, food schedules, medications to be given, and playtime will be followed to exact instructions.

I actually booked for the entire month and I am glad that my pup has someone like her since I can’y be with him all the time. Thanks Noelle!”

Spending time with animals brings me immense joy, and I love connecting with them on their level. I strive to be fully present with every pet, tuning into their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply sharing quiet moments, I aim to create a fun, loving, and meaningful experience for them.

I ensure they have a cozy space to relax, plenty of playtime and walks, and maintain their regular routines as much as possible.

When caring for pets in their own home, I take extra care to follow the owner's instructions to the letter, keeping their routine intact and respecting their personal space. I make sure pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away by being fully present, attentive to their needs, and offering appropriate levels of love and engagement.

“Angelica is a great proactive communicator and really understands cats! I appreciate that she took photos of their litter box and water fountain as well. Would love to book her for future sitter needs!”

“Wonderful as always! We've been booking Natali to do mid-day drop-ins to let our dog out and play with him, and she's wonderful. She takes care of our dog, and also always makes sure to give tons of updates and notes. We have a cat as well and Natali isn't doing any cat services during her drop-ins, but Natali noted the other day that our cat was lazy and didn't come to greet her like usual, so she wanted to let us know in case anything was wrong with the cat. The cat was totally fine, but Natali's communication demonstrated that she really cares, pays attention, and takes such wonderful care.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mountlake Terrace
Elaina was terrific! Our two Westies took to her right away. She spent time with them and sent several pictures. The pups were obviously happy and excited to see her. We felt immediately comfortable with her being in our home and with our pups. We appreciated her prompt responses to our questions (this was our first time using Rover). We highly recommend Elaina and have already scheduled to use her again for a trip next month!

I'm a bit of an anxious pet mom because one of my dogs is an energetic husky and the other is a highly reactive dog with a complicated medical history. Abby did an incredible job keeping me updated about how the dogs were doing while I was away, including sending loads of adorable photos. She went above and beyond giving my highly reactive little guy his inhaler twice a day; there are fewer than five people in the entire world that he actually likes and she is one of them. She did a wonderful job ensuring that my energetic husky got the activity and enrichment that she needed to be happy, that my little guy got his medication and cuddles, and that I felt secure the entire time I was gone knowing they were in excellent hands. I can't recommend Abby highly enough.

Kristy took excellent care of our new dog we adopted just a few days ago! Our pup is quite nervous about many things but Kristy came for a meet and greet the day before and then came the 3x as planned during our work day to take care of Sequoia, and gave her meds as scheduled. We will happily book Kristy again next time we need care!

Katie is a dependable rockstar! She’s responsive, insightful, and takes that little extra step for your pet that gives you that peace of mind. For as long as I live close enough for her to be my sitter, I will be forever using her to watch my pup, and you should too!

Nathan was extremely helpful watching my dog, taking him on walks, and spending time with him. Very trustworthy, very kind, follows directions well and keeps you informed which meant a lot to me. He was always punctual and very understanding of my concerns. I will definitely be booking him again!

Penny is the absolute best person we have ever had care for our 9 year old dog. She loves animals and their personalities. ❤️ Our Luna was happy and content when we got home from a week long trip. We will ask Penny to watch her again the next time we go somewhere.
