“She was able to help me out on short notice when my other plans fell through and was easy to work and communicate with. Also sent me cute pics of my cat :)”
“Melanie did a great job taking care of my very unfriendly cat Daisy! She sent lots of pictures & updates, which I enjoyed getting. Melanie brought my mail in & took my garbage out to the curb for pick up too. She went above & beyond! I am so happy to have found her to take care of Daisy when I am gone!”
“Ruby was wonderful with our two pups for a drop in visit! She was able to come short notice as well which we so appreciate. It was soooo relieving and nice knowing we were leaving our dogs with someone we could trust.”
“We have been using Noella since May and are very happy. Noella goes above and beyond to make Lilka happy and comfortable during her stay. She gives Lilka alot of individual attention and makes her feel at home. Lilka spends her days both inside and outside and in the pool (her favorite) Noella carefully matches dogs up so they get a best friend (Lilka loves Mickey) then slowly introduces them to the group and makes sure everyone is comfortable and safe every step of the way. I would recommend Noella to anyone. Noella will treat your dog like one of her own and do everything she can to insure your dog has the best time possible during its stay. Lilka gives Noella 5 Paws and I do too.”
“Riley did amazing with my dog Kiko. Kiko is very nervous and takes a long time warming up to new people but Riley knew what they were doing and was so patient with Kiko! They were reliable and took great care of Kiko. I will definitely be booking them again!”

“Mary has multiple years of experience working with pets, which was evident during our Meet & Greet. She's not just someone doing a part time job, but a dedicated & caring professional.

Animals are her calling. Thanks again for all you provided.”
About: I will make sure your dog knows I care about them, I am very hands on. I love playing, petting, just having a good time with animals. There are some great trails around the area that I have heard about that I would love to take your dog with me to explore (as long as that is okay with you) and I will make sure your dog has a great time with me. I currently work a part time overnight job, but I am not getting many hours at all so my availability is pretty open. I have been pet sitting for about 1 year now, and I really enjoy it. Before that, I had a dog of my own, but she passed recently, so I am eager to pass on my love for her, to any other animals that I can.
“Belinda was amazing with my kitties. She dropped in on them over the weekend and was super responsive and so helpful. Her check ins were really thorough and she went out of her way to make sure my boys were cared for. Highly recommend we will be using her again!”
About: I've worked with a variety of animals throughout my life and dogs have taken up the majority of that experience. I've lived with dogs and cats my whole life, helped neighbors with their animals, both with house visits and making sure their animal friends get proper exercise. I just finished working at a dog and cat kennel that I was with for a year before starting college, there I learned how to handle every size dog, proper grooming, styling, exerciseing, training, behavior modification and observation, medication treatments and how too handle emergency situations. I'm at student at The Evergreen State College and currently have classes three days a week, I'm looking to work with animals while I learn more about them. I'm very flexible and can work with your needs. I will ensure your animal friends have a proper and comfy place while your gone, insuring your pets have a good climate, don't get too cold or too warm. I will wash and refill both the food and water when needed, provide brushing for dogs with longer coats. Take them outside if allowed for backyard runs, play time, emotional support and supervision. Clients can choose to recieve updates on their pets by text, call, or email. Applies for dogs, cats and any other animal you may have.
