Dog Sitting Mukilteo

About: Hi! My name is Celestine, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I have experience looking after both dogs and cats through personal pet sitting, family care, and volunteer work at PAWS Animal Shelter. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs — from playful, energetic pets to shy or senior animals that need extra patience and gentle attention. Growing up, I regularly helped neighbors, friends, and family with pet sitting responsibilities such as feeding, walking, cleaning litter boxes, giving fresh water, playtime, and making sure pets felt safe and comfortable while their owners were away. I’ve also cared for my siblings’ cats and understand how important consistency, cleanliness, and affection are for pets, especially when they’re adjusting to someone new. My experience volunteering at an animal shelter taught me how to stay calm, attentive, and compassionate around animals of all temperaments. I understand that every pet is different, and I always take time to learn their routines, comfort levels, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely love building trust with both pets and owners. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I always do my best to provide updates, communicate clearly, and care for every animal like they’re my own. Your pet will get lots of patience, attention, love, and responsible care with me — plus probably an embarrassing amount of compliments about how cute they are. My schedule is flexible and varies week to week since I currently work at a bakery with changing part-time hours. I’m usually available during mornings, and even on workdays I’m typically home by the evening. I do work most Saturdays and every other Sunday, but I make it a priority to only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit my time and attention to. I’m naturally very organized and good at managing my schedule, so I’m reliable when it comes to feeding times, check-ins, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines. Over the next couple of months my availability may vary slightly depending on work hours and social plans, but I always communicate clearly and plan ahead with pet owners. Starting in July, I’ll be attending dental hygiene school full time, so my weekday daytime availability will become more limited. However, I still expect to be available many evenings, nights, and most weekends for pet care. No matter how busy life gets, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I make sure any pet in my care gets consistent attention, patience, and dependable care. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, and dependable experience for both pets and their owners. I am attentive to details, follow care instructions carefully, and make pet safety my top priority. Whether it's ensuring doors and gates are secure, monitoring a pet's behavior for any signs of stress, or maintaining their normal routine, I strive to create an environment where pets feel comfortable and well cared for. Through years of pet sitting and my volunteer experience at PAWS Animal Shelter, I've learned the importance of patience, consistency, and building trust. I understand that every animal is different, and I take the time to respect their boundaries, comfort levels, and individual needs. I also believe trust is built through communication. I am happy to provide updates and photos during visits so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and receiving the attention they deserve while they're away. Above all, I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same level of care, kindness, and responsibility that I would hope someone would show to my own family members.

“Kaitlyn was fantastic with our two cats. She was always communicative and left detailed visit info. House was in perfect order when we got home from our trip. She also went above and beyond with spraying the ants that showed up and watering our garden.”

“Sherri was such a blessing to have for our senior pup. He warmed up to her right away and enjoyed her company through a week of check-ins. We could not be happier in our choice to have Sherri as our sitter and would have her again in a moments notice. She was prompt, professional, easy to work with, and most importantly she loved on our dog like he was her own. Cannot say enough good things about her!”

About: I've taken care of puppies and dogs with special needs through neighbor walks for retired people and students. I also have a pet before at home. I'm a graduate student working remotely most of the time, so I manage my time freely to take care of pets. I enjoy being with dogs! I'm really careful in taking care of pets when doing walks, keeping them at home, or visiting dog parks. I can arrange this at home so your pet can feel comfortable if needed.

“Naomi was so sweet with Simba! During our meet and greet, he warmed up to her right away and even let her rub his belly, which isn’t something he does with everyone. She was kind, patient, and communicative, and she sent updates and photos during his walk, which I really appreciated. Simba came back happy, and I’d definitely book with Naomi again!”

“Susan really took care of my 2 rambunctious pups. She kept me up to date and provided me with pictures everyday of my 2. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting help caring for their pets.”

About: I’ve taken care of my dog since I was 7. I had a pug and a french bulldog all my life in Indonesia. We don’t have our own dog at the moment and would love to take care of your dog. My husband and I are working from home from Monday to Friday. We wake up at 6 AM and start working at 7 AM. We can adjust your dog’s needs to our schedule since our working schedule is quite flexible. Although we don’t have pets at home, we are willing to let your dog play around the house and crate them when needed. Our place is neat and spacious, your dog can play around as they want!

“Jessica helped me out over this July 4th holiday & I am so thankful! Her responses were quick, she is easy to communicate with, & my pups love her. I know this by seeing the photos she sent me. I will rebook with Jessica, anytime. Thank you Jessica!”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a pre-teen, but fell in love with animal care fully in my junior year of high school, after I began volunteering at the Everett Animal Shelter. Since then, I have changed positions and worked as a post-surgery volunteer with PAWS, transporting and handling anesthetized animals after they underwent surgeries. This summer I am also interning at PAWS again, this time as a Foster Care Intern, where I manage the entire foster care system behind the scenes. Additionally, I have worked with large animals such as horses while volunteering, managed and milked dairy cattle, and took care of pigs as my job on the side. I will continue to grow my portfolio, as I am a Pre-Vet Animal Science major at Washington State University with the goal of becoming a veterinarian one day. I am currently on summer break in my hometown (Everett) and have pretty open availability. I intern at paws from 8am-12pm on Sundays & Mondays, and 12-5pm on Thursdays, but other than that, I am free for walks, house sitting, or drop ins! Safety is extremely important during both house sitting & walks! For walks, I like to make sure dogs stay on the side of the sidewalk away from the road, as well as being properly harnessed and equipped with essential needs like poop bags and water incase of an emergency. I also keep a sharp eye out for other dogs to steer clear from unwanted interactions. Additionally, during house sitting, outside doors stay locked at all times, and your pet is watched 24/7. No escapes will happen on my watch! I am open to following any other rules, expectations or suggestions you have regarding your pet & house’s safety!

“Had such a great experience with Yomna, she looked after our 2, high maintenance, dogs. They were so happy when she would show up as well as us knowing they had someone caring to look after them. She gave us such peace of mind with her communication and updates. Would love to have her watch our pups again!”

About: *TAKING NEW CLIENTS* Devoting more time to this practice that I love, the more pets the merrier! Experienced with dogs who have behavioral issues or are just nervous around new people, puppies bring them on, and everything in between. I am a sensitive empath who truly loves / cares about all animals and animals flock to me where they may normally run away or act out. I am adaptable and always want to customize the experience of your specific needs and welcome any and all specific instructions, or if you are a newer pet owner or Rover user, I am always available to provide advice or insight even if you are not booking with me, at the end of the day I am here to help your pets / you and to make your lives a little easier. Recently I have been able to open up my schedule to take on a more full time Commitment to dog walks and drop ins. I have open availability from 7am-11pm and can provide multiple services throughout the day. If your pocket books are strapped and you still want experienced help, I am open to negotiation on my prices (within reason). I understand how expensive it is just to live these days. Life comes with many stresses, but I can guarantee if you take me on as your animal care provider that your pets safety/well being will never be one of them while in my care. *in your home only* due to having 4 animals of my own. I can come every 4 hours throughout the night and as often as every 2.5 hrs during the day. I listen to instructions very well and would follow specific routines accordingly. The more details , the better so I can maintain their normal routine. Other wise just like my own, I would play tug of war or cuddle or fetch or give them space/ whatever they may need.

“Kathryn has been the best sitter! My cats don’t need much but she still goes out of her way to give them attention and spend time with them! She is always really attentive and I can always trust her with the care of my babies <3”

Only doing walks for smaller dogs and drop-in service at the moment. Feel free to reach out. I will be pretty much available after 9 AM on weekdays and weekends. Currently focusing on the Lynnwood/Everett area, but willing to go a little more south if needed. Please share any specific instructions regarding your pet's food and feeding schedule. This includes dietary restrictions, portion sizes, and any special feeding techniques. I'd love to know if your fur babies have special needs.
