About: -->PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BOOK<-- *I have 2 indoor cats (extremely friendly with dogs/cats) and they love to play with the pups. Make sure your pet is friendly with them too ^^ *If this is your first time with me please let's set up a Meet and Greet so you can meet me and my pets and make sure we are a good fit for your pup!! (I don't take new pets without a previous meet and greet, unless is an emergency case) My priority is to keep your pet safe, comfortable and fully entertained while you are away. Walks around the lake in our neighorhood surrounded by nature are a must do in our daily check list (sometimes we even take them to the mall to socialize and get free treats lol) As a pet sitter I'm offering house & pet walking/sitting opportunities to families (I'm willing to travel farther and pick up them by myself)! I have aided many friends & family members in keeping their pets safe to keep their stay-away stress free! I have years experience with dogs and cats. Feel free to DM for more details or if you need a better deal for long-term boarding 😊 I'm currently at home 24/7. My pets and I are used to wake up at 5:30 sm in the morning for the first "Potty Time" Breakfast between 7-8 am. Walks after midday, naps when/if they are tired. Dinner at 5 pm Generally I take my pets out for potty 3 times a day or when they ask me for. Every dog has their own personality so feel completely free to tell me their routines ❣️❣️(feeding time, potty hours, allowed or not on bed/couch etc) Max and Cleo are Great Pyrenees, 2 extremely gentle giants that love to play and take care of any kind of animals (they are very calm but they love to bark at the begging, they get tired easily after some minutes of play time). In the other hand, Kai is a medium size old doggy, he gets very excited with new pets but a few minutes later he just ignore them and likes to go back to take long naps on the couch. I have 2 friendly indoor cats, they mostly spend the day sleeping inside the bedroom or playing with the dogs from time to time.
About: I just recently moved to the Shelton area and have been working with animals my whole life. Your pets are my #1 priority and I always value safety the most. It’s important to me that your pet gets the care, exercise and attention that it needs on a daily basis safely. I live on a golf course with a lake so it’s the perfect area for your pet to get fresh air with a scenic view and plenty of nature to enjoy. I’m always open to new ideas with adventures you’d like your pet to go on or how you’d like your pet to be taken care of. I’ve worked with all types of dogs from elderly/disabled to aggressive giant dogs and puppies that just had surgery. I look forward to meeting with you and your fur babies and set up a meet and greet! It is my full time job so I take it as serious as possible. I love animals and will always give them the love and care they need My home does not have a fenced back yard so I will make sure anytime they leave the house they will be on a leash to keep them safe. I have a large shop where I spend most of my down time where they will have plenty of space to run around and get there zoomies out in a safe space. There are plenty of parks around me with water access at our lake and great walking trails/paths on the golf course where I live.
“My dogs love their stay with Desiree!! The one place where they are running with wagging tails towards the front door to get inside and have fun. Safe, clean and just like a 2nd home for our pups!”

“My 5 year old Siberian Husky got all excited today when we pulled up at Lindsay’s house. It is obvious that Tilly has a new sitter friend in Lindsay. Great job and thanks again!”

About: I’ve had or taken care of pets my entire life. I will listen to you and what your pet’s needs are and will ensure that they get the best care. Being in the position of needing pet care myself at times, I know how important it is to be confident in your sitter. I currently work from home 3 days a week. On the days that I go into work I will come home halfway through the day to check on your pets that I’m watching. Weekends are usually spent taking the dogs for daily outings. I can provide the importance of a partially fenced in yard. I am always willing to take your dog out on a leash if there is a threat of them running off. I love taking my pups out back on the acreage to run around. My 5-year old golden retriever and 13-year old basset hound will be able to accompany your dog in the yard :)
“Kaylee and her family are awesome and we are very lucky to have her in our area! Andy loves coming to their place and see all his friends and he sees them as his other family. 5 stars is not enough to rate Kaylee.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds for over 15 years, living on Case Inlet 1.5 acre beach house property with a private beach.

I’m available for boarding and sitting weekdays and weekends, ensuring your pet gets my full attention. My Case Inlet home has a fenced yard, perfect for safe play. I’m attentive, can crate if needed, and keep pets comfy—whether at my place or yours!
About: I have had a personal dog for 10 years and have also grown up with cats my whole life. I have taken care of all different types of dogs for neighbors and friends. I have work in a boarding Facility also I have worked with dogs who have needed some behavioral help. I'm currently working part-time which gives me plenty of time to play with your animals.

First and foremost placing the pets well being and Safety above anything else. I also treat others homes with upmost respect
“Michael was so helpful and even spent extra time with us to teach us some training for my puppy. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog there for the day. Thank you, Michael!”

“Barb welcomed our Abby into her home on her meet and greet and it wasn’t long until she fit right in. She stayed for the day and seemed to have a great time. Abby takes a while to warm up to strangers but didn’t seem to have a problem with Barb or her husband. We will definitely use her service again.”

“Gregorie and Brittanie took great care of my puppy, Leo. I am a first-time dog owner who was nervous leaving my puppy with a sitter, but Gregory and Brittanie were willing to do a meet-and-greet ahead of our booking, putting me at ease about leaving Leo. They graciously answered all of my questions and replied to my messages promptly. Leo seemed very at ease around them and happy when I came to pick him up. They also kept me updated throughout the day with photos of Leo, which I appreciated! I’m so thankful they were able and willing to care for him so well. I would happily recommend them to other pet owners. Thank you, Gregory and Brittanie!”

“I couldn’t be happier with Jennifer and her family for taking such great care of my dog. My dog came home happy, tired. I will definitely continue to board with Jennifer.”

About: Been around dogs and cats since i was kid, know how to train and love them. Will show them love and care while your away from home. I'm out and about all the time easy to stop and take care of your animals and won't effect my daily routine and will show as much love as possible and can stick to any guidelines you set. You set the guidelines I will stick to them every owners different. I'm a dog and cat owner so know how it is, you set the stipulations and I'll follow them.
“Today was Leo’s third visit with James and Julia. He really enjoys his time playing with the other doggies. James and Julia have a perfect place for dogs to be safe and have fun. I am very happy I found these young couple to look after our doggie.”


“Boobie is is fantastic. Our dog loves her and her pup Athena. Bobbie goes above and beyond to make scheduling work. She takes great care of our dog like he’s her own. At the end of every visit our pup is happy and exhausted from their fun day together. I can’t recommend Bobbie enough for home visits or doggy day care.”


“Great experience first stay. Our dog, Betty, hit the ground runnin’ and really enjoyed the huge back yard and other young and playful dogs. Jennifer was completely engaged and seemed to enjoy any “quirks” individual dogs had. The sogs literally have the run of the house n yard. Plenty of opportunity to drop out of the mix and take a break when desired. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
