About: Hi, I’m Jenni! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have 15+ years of hands-on experience with pets, along with previous experience working in the veterinary field. My background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the importance of dependable care. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently offer drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, senior pets, shy pets, and multi-pet households. You can expect reliable communication, photo updates, and peace of mind knowing your pets are being treated like family. I proudly serve Mason, Kitsap, and Thurston County areas. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your fur babies! I love animals and they always fit into my daily routine and schedule. Animal care is so important. Fur babies are our everything and more! I will come to you guys so they are in the comfort of their own home. It makes it so much easier on them as well as you so no boarding kennels are needed

“Absolutely wonderful sitter. Literally zero complaints, she was communicative, helpful, took notes on the goods and the bads, went above and beyond to provide service for my pets. Absolutely will be using her again, first choice.”

“Joshua is by far the best pet sitter we’ve had. He offered to stop by before house-sitting and that helped our extremely apprehensive cat (who can be pretty spicy around new people). Judging by the many pictures and videos we received, they were both very comfortable and happy in his care ! My dog received the meds he needed and Josh went out of his way to buy peanut butter when our pup was being stubborn. Can’t wait to rebook with him, knowing our babies are in good hands ! Additionally, our apartment was left in great shape; very clean and even had clean bedsheets to come home to :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since my brother got a puppy himself and one of my best friends got a husky pup! I would dog sit for them all the time so I quickly learned what a dog needs and how to care for them! Im currently a chiropractic student at Parker University so I have plenty of time to care for your dog most weekdays and weekends since my class schedule can be flexible! I am not able to provide care in my own home because my landlord does not allow pets. However, im more than willing to come to your house and follow the instructions you would like for me to follow!

“Jakob is great with our dogs and respectful of our home.”

About: When I was little and people asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said 'dog walker' — and now I finally get to live that dream! This summer I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I have experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats, and I treat every animal like my own. This summer I'm home in Olympia taking a college course, so my days are flexible and my focus is simple — hitting the books and spoiling some fur babies! I have plenty of time and am committed to giving your pet consistent, reliable care My home comes with a large fenced yard — plenty of room for your pup to run wild, explore, and have the time of their life!

“Brad went above and beyond for our pets! I always know they are in great care while we’re away for the weekend. Came home to a spotless home and happy pets :)”

“Emily took great care of my dog while I was away for 7 days! She was very communicative and followed all directions. She left the house super clean too which is always appreciated. I would book her again and recommend her to a friend!”

Audrey W.

“Honestly, Erica was phenomenal. I have absolutely no complaints or critiques. She sent tons of pictures and videos, and my apartment was spotless when I got home (which was unexpected but a really nice surprise!). And best of all, my dog was calm when I arrived, as if I hadn't even been gone. And that is exactly what I wanted, for her to feel so comfortable, safe, and loved with a sitter that she's not even anxious when I get back. I highly recommend Erica and have already booked her again. :)”

Frankie D.

“We had a good experience with Madisyn! The house was left spotless and communication throughout the stay was great — she sent updates, pictures and was easy to reach. Our one note is that she was out quite late one evening, which we weren't expecting. I'd recommend discussing schedules and expectations upfront, as she is a popular sitter with other jobs. I would still consider booking again, as we discussed that issue and she was very responsive. Thanks, Madisyn!”

Michelle K.

“Excellent care of my dogs and house! thanks”

Rachel L.

“Brittany was great with our senior girls! She took amazing care of them and we never felt worried about their well being. We have already booked again with Brittany and Hailey and will continue to do so.”

Kelsey C.

“Quincy is amazing with animals. She is so kind and understands and appreciates all of their personalities. I cannot recommend Quincy highly enough, and I am so grateful that she was able to house and pet sit for us during a very stressful time.”

Judith G.

“Tara was really wonderful! When I first met her I could tell she really loves dogs and would take very good care of our pups while we’re were gone for an overnight trip. So happy I found her and I look forward to trusting her with our house and pups again in the future.”

About: I grew up on a farm with lots of different animals, I also have house sat for friends and neighbors over the years. Love dogs and Cats! I work full time so I'm only available after 5:15 p.m. during the week and weekends. I don't do a lot out side of work. I would do day care and house sitting at the clients home. I can pass a background check and have house sat for friends and neighbors over the years.

About: Hello! We are Cole and Kayla, homeowners in the Lake Limerick area of Shelton. We are conveniently located on your commute between Hwy 101 and Hwy 3. What sets us apart from other sitters is our hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and a deep understanding of what it takes to care for dogs with high energy and specialized needs. We have raised and trained high-energy hunting dogs, which has given us the skills to handle active breeds that require both physical and mental stimulation. We are very familiar with the importance of consistency, exercise, and patience when it comes to training and caring for these types of dogs. In addition to dogs, We have also taken care of livestock, so we are no strangers to early mornings, structured routines, and being attentive to animal behavior and health. Currently, we are raising a 1-year-old Weimaraner, which has only deepened our appreciation for the energy, intelligence, and quirks that come with certain breeds. We understand how to provide the right balance of discipline and affection, and know how important it is to create a safe, stimulating environment where pets feel secure and loved. Whether it's a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC, we are confident in our ability to provide personalized, attentive care that fits each pet’s unique personality and needs. We both work full time but often have a lot of weekends/holidays available as well as most evenings after 4:00 PM. We also could be available other days potentially depending on the time of year and work schedules. Whether we’re caring for pets in our own home or in a client’s, we approach every situation with the same level of respect, responsibility, and love. We treat each home as if it were our own—clean, safe, and respectful of the space—and every animal in our care as if they were a member of our family. In our home, pets have plenty of room to relax, play, and feel comfortable. We allow frequent potty breaks and are happy to take dogs on walks as needed to help them get their energy out and enjoy some fresh air. If a pet is crate-trained or requires crating at certain times, we’re more than capable of accommodating that in a way that keeps them calm and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we maintain their routines as closely as possible, from feeding and medication schedules to walks, playtime, and quiet time. We make sure they feel safe and loved while their family is away, and we treat the client’s home with the same care and consideration we’d expect in return. No matter the setting, our goal is always to provide a stress-free, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel truly cared for.

About: As an experienced dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by truly understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have a natural ability to read their body language and adapt to their moods, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medications, following specific dietary plans, or providing enriching playtime and walks, I tailor my approach to each dog’s routine. My calm and attentive demeanor helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease, and I maintain clear communication with pet owners for peace of mind. Having cared for my own senior Pomeranian, Zeus, until he was 14, I am particularly attuned to the special needs of older dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines for their comfort. I currently have an year and a half year old Yellow Labrador Retriever named cooper, so well experienced with puppies I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to be there consistently. I love getting outside for walks and making sure dogs stay mentally and physically happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, including senior dogs and puppies. I always keep a close eye during walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment.
