“Amy took very good care of my dog Abby. She sent me several pictures when she was out playing with my dog which was great because it made me feel like she was safe and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Amy”


“Lisa was the perfect fit for us. She kept me updated on everything happening and sent pictures. It was a comfort Knowing she was taking such good care of my babies. Hoping she'll be available for my next time away from home.”


“Cassie was amazing, we couldn’t have asked for a better, more caring sitter for our dogs and cat. She followed all the instructions we left (which are pretty specific to our pets) with great care, and everything was perfectly taken care of throughout the entire weekend. We’ll absolutely be using her services again in the coming months. We think we’ve found our permanent sitter!”


About: I have been taking care of others pets for about 5 years now and have had family pets of the furry, feathered, and scaly varieties my entire life. I've mucked stalls, scooped poop, cleaned cat boxes, all of the not so glamorous parts, and have enjoyed walking, playing and spending quality time while meeting each furry friends every day needs. I currently have a French Bulldog named Sophie and a Leopard Gecko named Leo who I have loved taking care of every day! I am currently on summer vacation so I am free every day except for two vacations I have planed. I am able and willing to stay as many days as you need in your home any time of the week with your pets. My basic pet care will include bringing pets to the bathroom about every 2 hours, feeding pets required amount told by owners, playing with pets multiple times a day, cleaning up after pets, and any other special care instructions given by owners. Care may vary depending on the type of animal.


“Shawn is amazing, I highly recommend her! She took such wonderful care of my two senior dogs while I was away. Shawn sent me notes and photos so I knew exactly how my dogs were doing and gave me peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. I came home to happy dogs and a well-kept home, I couldn’t have asked for more!”


“It's always a bit stressful when you need to give a stranger access to your home while you're out of town. But Melinda was amazing. She came over for a couple of meet-and-greets with the dogs before our trip, which helped assure us that they would all get along. She suggested that she be there when we left for our trip, so the dogs would know it's ok for her to be in the house without us. And she sent us pics and updates while we were gone. We'd book with her again in a heartbeat!”


“Katherine and her son have quickly become our favorite doggy nanny’s for Java by far. They spend special attention and kept to our instructions for our little guy. It really shows how much they love animals. On the first sitting Java had a hard time letting them leave. Thank you again for both of your wonderful.”


“Peggy is outstanding! She came to stay at our home and watch our fur babies while we traveled to the East Coast. She kept us informed on how the "kids" were doing and sent photos. She left the house super clean and tidy and everyone was happy. We will definitely ask for Peggy again when we need someone to watch our pets.”


“Anna is great and we completely trust her with our dogs. She has taken care of senior dogs and now our Australian Shepard puppy with our Great Pyrenees at the same time. They are WILD together and she did a great job of handling them. Would strongly recommend her for any dog situation”


“On a short notice request to attend a burial, we were fortunate to find Seann, and for our schedules to align. He was a true pleasure to work with, our Katie and Cooper warmed up to him immediately, and we connected to his warm personality. He was rather attentive to Katie's special medical needs, kept them companied around the clock, and tended to them exactly as needed. We felt Katie and Cooper were in excellent hands. Seann was also very respectful of the property and communicated with me as often as it was necessary. We are rather pleased with Seann, and look forward to his care on future trips.”


About: Our pups are our world. We do everything together. We have 1 acre lot in the woods for fun time. We both work from home and are always together snuggling and playing. We would love to have more pups here to add to the fun and cuddles. During the week we both work from home and let pups out about every 2 hrs. We feed them 3x a day. We go out for some exercise in back yard at lunch and then after work. On weekends we usually take pups to a park for a new adventure. We would love to have more pups here to socialize with our pups and join in the fun and cuddles. We could also come to your home if that works best for your pup.

“Sarah was WONDERFUL! She was communicative, respectful of all house rules, and my dogs were really well cared for. She even went above and beyond with clean up before we returned. We will absolutely use Sarah in the future.”


“Nicolas is outstanding! ..and that is an understatement. He was able to juggle my THREE dogs plus showed interest in caring for my 2 quail birds. Not booking him is missing out on a blessing, seriously. Being that I was out of the country, I received timely and daily updates for all three of my puppies, and he did nothing less than treat them as his own. Although the Rover minimum is to send pictures, Nicolas went far and beyond. I received videos, messages, & photos of details on their moods and activities throughout the day. He even stepped outside of doggy duties with light shores around the house just out of the kindness of his heart! He will most definitely become a TRUSTED regulator sitter for my babies!”


“Penny has watched our dogs and house twice and each time, has provided great service. Our dogs are happy and healthy, and our house is clean. She communicated well and send pictures and updates daily. Thank you Penny! We appreciate you so much!”


About: I’m currently a Veterinary Assistant, in school for my Veterinary Technicians license. I’m experienced giving medications, injections, and toenail trims! I have pretty advanced knowledge with animal terminology. With owning a Dalmatian, I am also very used to the energy levels of some very high dog breeds including, Dalmatian, Belgian Malinois, and Golden Retrievers. I’m currently working in Bainbridge Island for half the week but that does not stop me from dropping in/ spending time with your beloved pet! I love routine! Animals thrive on it! I thrive on it! With my own dog, I know she has a lot of needs that need to be met! Sticky notes! Booklets! As many tips and tricks you can give me to provide the care your pet needs!

“Jordan was excellent. I only adopted Oso the day prior but was called in to work. She met with Oso that day to ensure the two were a match. She responded with very short notice to dog sit within my home overnight. Her communication was perfect and she updated me often with how Oso was doing, what they were up to, and with multiple photos showing a very happy rescue.”


“Susan is a marvel. She’s a consummate professional that just loves what she does and the dogs love her back (and so do we). Thanks for taking care of our girls as your own.”
