House Sitting in Norkirk, Kirkland, WA

“We were in Europe for a month and Karin house sat and took care of our energetic dauchsund and plants. She did an amazing job taking care of our dog and plants, we could tell from the photos that our dog was loved and taken care of so well! Our house was exceptionally clean when we got home and all plants in good shape! Karin was communicative while we were out of town we always knew the status of our dog. She was truly a professional and will definitely book with her again!”

“Eden was great watching our two dogs for a long weekend. Dogs were happy and well cared for and she was very tidy - couldn’t even tell she stayed here. She is so easy going and lovely to work with. Highly recommend.”

“Samantha is SO great with my young GSP! He has high energy and requires a thoughtful but direct approach. Samantha left jackson SO tired and we’ll loved plus during an overnight left my home clean and exactly how I left it. So thankful I found Samantha for my dog care - gives me great peace of mind to have good dependable care I trust for my pup!”

“Talia is the best! She’s a kind and patient animal lover who took excellent care of our pup while house sitting for us. Daily walks, play, love, and she even taught her a new trick ? We knew Kuma was in great hands with Talia and she’ll be our go-to pet care from here on out!”

“Shana was amazing! I have a 14 years old cat that is deaf, blind, need medications, have accidents quite often, and Shana took great care of him while I was gone for four days. She followed the instructions carefully, asked clarifying when she wasnt sure, reported any abnormalities she observed, and was being really patient and gentle with the cat. I'd def recommend Shana! Thank you!”

“Carolyn did an amazing job cat sitting for my two very energetic Maine Coons! She is fast to respond and keep you updated, and takes cute videos of cats too! I would highly recommend her”

“Tricia did an excellent job taking care of our 5 dogs. Our pack includes 3 little dogs and 2 big, one of the bigs being a 10 month old. Tricia seemed to manage their madness in stride, and I could tell from the photos she sent us that all 5 dogs were loved on and well cared for. We also asked Tricia to take care of 50+ house plants, and she did a great job caring for them as well. We would definitely book Tricia again. Thank you!”

“Maja is a gem. She was responsive, communicative and a pleasure as a house sitter for my 2 year old lab. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others in need of quality pet care and house sitting.”

About: I've grown up all my life with furry friends: hamsters, chinchillas, parrots, rabbits, cats, and dogs. They truly add sweetness to my life. When I was a kid, I remember obsessively watching Animal Planet and reading all of my library book's about pet care and training. I was able to help train my dogs through advanced obedience classes, Canine Good Citizen test, and therapy dog training through positive reinforcement, mental enrichment, trust building, and having fun! My bonds with them have been some of the most fulfilling parts of my life. I've raised my pets throughout all their life stages, as well as helping care for friends' and neighbors' pets, all of a variety of sizes, ages, breeds, temperaments, and special needs. I'd love the privilege to do the same for you. My dog Pearl is my cherished adventure buddy all across the PNW, but I too have trips I cannot take her on. I understand the stress and worry of finding care for your furry friends when those events arise, and I will strive the best I can to ease your and your pet's worries with quality care and communication, and treat them as I'd want mine to be treated. "In Hawaiian, you don't call yourself your pet's owner. You are their kahu. Kahu has many meanings, among them: guardian, protector, steward, beloved attendant—basically, someone entrusted with the safekeeping of something precious, something cherished. What a Kahu protects is not their property. What they protect is a part of their soul." I'm currently on a break from full-time work and school, so I have a lot of time and love to give! I do part-time contract work completely remotely from home, so I can be home a lot during the day to keep your pet company and give frequent walks, potty breaks, and playtime. There will just be brief times they would need to be alone if I need to go out to run errands. In that case, I request that your dog is crate trained, primarily for their safety for the brief time that I can't supervise them. I can also accommodate for very early or late drop-off and pickup times. My apartment is dog-proofed with all safety precautions considered. All possible escape routes are blocked off. Dogs will only be leashed when let out and followed their prescribed routine and given their specified food. I only take one client at a time, so your dog(s) will have my full individualized attention. Pearl is very sweet and mild-mannered, but I'll always supervise all dogs' interactions together. I send daily photo updates about your dog's activities and well-being, and am available by phone/text/app messaging any time. I reside between Redmond, Bellevue, and Kirkland in a very safe gated complex. Your dog will love the park-like setting of the complex with a long walking trail surrounded by beautiful flowering greenery and a pond. They will not be taken out of the complex (e.g. to a dog park) due to the risks involved.

“Hope was great! She kept us up to date with everything going on at home with our pup, and the house was in better shape than when we left it!”

“Kimberly does amazing with my babies, they really appreciate her company and care ❤️”

“Kevin and Gabriela were easy to work with and schedule. They were prompt and worked well with my dog who's currently not in the best of health. They brought their dogs to play with my furball and to keep her company, which I greatly appreciated.”

“Madeleine was the perfect sitter for our Brodie last week. Our elderly dog passed over the bridge literally the day before our [completely non-refundable] trip was scheduled, and we were kind of a mess, as you might imagine. We didn't want to leave B, but knowing that he was with Madeleine who could love on him and distract him was a huge comfort. As others have mentioned, Madeleine has amazing, calm energy that was particularly appreciated this time around. Daily texts and photos kept us up to date, and we arrived home to a house that was definitely cleaner than when we left it. Thank you so much!”

“Abby was reliable, kind and communicative. She took great care of my senior dog and keep me up to date on how he was doing during her stay in my home. Would love to hire Abby again! Thank you so much. ☺️”

“Iryna was warm and affectionate with our Watson. She took great care of him while we were away for a long weekend. We came back to a very clean house and a happy dog. Thanks Iryna!”
