“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Pet from Nexsy! We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Nexsy! From the moment we met her, it was clear she has a true gift with animals. Our three dogs and two cats took to her immediately — and that alone speaks volumes! Nexsy didn’t just “watch” our pets; she genuinely cared for them as if they were her own. Updates came regularly with thoughtful messages, adorable photos, and sweet little anecdotes that brought so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our furry family members were not just safe, but happy and thriving in her care. She played with the dogs, gave them tons of attention, and kept the cats content and calm, sticking to their routines and making sure everyone felt loved. On top of all that, Nexsy also took amazing care of our plants. It’s such a relief to come home to happy pets and thriving greenery. It’s rare to find someone so professional, trustworthy, and warm-hearted. Nexsy is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter — dependable, kind, communicative, and clearly loves what she does. We came home to relaxed, happy pets, flourishing plants, and a home that was just as we left it. We wholeheartedly recommend Nexsy to anyone looking for truly exceptional care. Cindy M”


“I used Adara for an overnight stay with my 2 pups. I came home to a clean house and happy pups! Good communication while I was away and lots of pictures. Will definitely use her again!”


“Saige was super polite, pleasant, and caring for all of my dogs needs. She brought my boy to the dog park, for walks, and kept him entertained. She was a perfect houseguest, and I will absolutely be booking with her again.”


“Cindy was very accommodating when we needed last minute caretaking of Shadow and our kitties. She was wonderful in keeping close contact with us and sending us photos. She’s a great resource and a lovely person. We’re glad to know her.”


“Julissa did a great job pet sitting our dog and two cats over the holidays. Pets seemed very happy, communication was great, and the house was very clean when we returned. Thanks Julissa!!”


About: I’ve always had dogs in my house so I’m extremely comfortable with them. I’ve also looked after people in my neighborhood’s pets (cats, dogs, birds) for a couple of years when I was younger. Before my senior dog passed away, I was in charge of taking care of her in the summer while my parents were away. Her hind legs became immobile and she needed daily attention/ care, whether it be help eating, using the bathroom, or going up/down stairs. Along with this, I’ve done a lot of drop-in visits for friends and family’s dogs and cats for years. I’m essentially always available as long as I get a few days notice! I’m very flexible with times and cancellations as well. I’d love to walk, sit, or watch your pets whenever need be. In a client’s home for, say, dog walking, I’ll definitley always make sure your pup’s paws are clean before coming in! This was something my parents always made sure of when I was younger, so I do the same now. In the past, I’ve been lucky enough to have a lot of clients with large fenced in yards for the dogs to be able to run around in. With that said, I’ll always make sure they get their energy out. For client’s without as much running space, I try to bring the dogs on longer walks. Water is key so bringing that along on longer walks is important, and making sure they drink when they get home is too. My boyfriend and I were responsible for his foster puppy, so we had to follow a structured diet and walking schedule daily for her. This experience I think helps me be structured with other dogs too.

“Erin was wonderful! She filled in at the last minute, which we really appreciated! She was great with Bessie and Bo, and she sent us updates! Definitely gave us peace of mind that our pets (and our house) were in good hands! We look forwards to having Erin stay with Bessie and Bo again in the future!”


“Robb was able to make my dog feel very comfortable at home. He was skilled and let me know if even the slightest thing was off. Will definitely be using him again for trips away.”


“As always, Kylie is the cat whisperer and the absolute best ever!! She is so communicative, kind and thoughtful. When we thought we’d possibly have to change our flights to a day later on the return, Kylie was so flexible and offered to keep checking in on our car. Thank you again, Kylie!”


“Best experience! Super communicative sending pics /videos so I felt secure in my pups comfort after dedicated efforts that softened my ornery, timid chihuahua into a cuddle buddy eager for love and attention.”


“Steph did an amazing job watching my rescue dog and house-sitting! She was responsible, punctual, and very communicative — I appreciated the many texts and photo updates. My dog seemed totally happy when I returned home. I will definitely be asking Steph to dog sit in the future!”


“Anna was such a great sitter for my dog Stick. I was away with little to no cell service, yet Anna still left me multiple messages and photos letting me know how everything was going. Anna also made sure that everything she needed from me in regards to caring for Stick was taken care of before I left. This made me feel very confident in her abilities to care for my little guy. I would highly recommended.”


“Isabel recently took care of my elderly Italian greyhound, Phoebe, who has many special needs and requires 5 medications twice a day, plus a special diet and has stomach issues due to the medication. There are no words that truly express the level of care that she showed Phoebe. She was so conscientious, communicated questions and followed through with the extra care that Phoebe required. The compassion she showed toward Phoebe was evident and a bond was formed over the week to the point when I mention Isabel, Phoebe goes to the door to look for her. Isabel is an angel, whose patience and kind nature made Phoebe comfortable throughout the week. I can’t say enough about the tremendous care she gave Phoebe!”


“Great sitter! I felt completely comfortable having her stay at my house and watch two dogs! She asked a lot of great questions to make sure she knew what they needed and were taken care of. Highly recommend!”


About: I’m a life long dog owner of pups both large and small. I have experience caring for animals unfamiliar with me from my time spent volunteering at the Kitsap Humane Society in Washington state. As a child, my dream was to buy a giant piece of land and provide a home to all of the strays and animals overflowing the shelters. I have always had a special touch with animals and I’m the go-to sitter for family, friends, and neighbors. I will love and care for your pets just as I love and care for mine. I am a college student and I run a small business from my home. This leave me with a very flexible schedule. I am happy to work around my client’s individual needs and provide care when they need it most. In my home, I walk my dog around every two hours or when she is showing signs of wanting to go outside. She has free rein of the home and enjoys frequent spoiling throughout the day with lots of pets, praise, and treats.
