“Jean is amazing! She is reliable, patient, and has a great love and intuition for animals! Our girls can be a bit of a challenge and she cared for them like a champ! We have booked her twice and we are so lucky to have found her!”

“Does a great job keeping my ferrets' space clean for them and keeping up with meds for my cats and ferrets. Is very punctual and I know my pets will get taken care of on schedule when she is booked, which really helps with the stress of being away from my fuzzy guys.”

“Great communication before the visits and during the visit. Lots of fun pictures and went above and beyond when taking care of my kitties. 100% recommend and 100% booking again <3”

“Sophia did an amazing job following my instructions and taking care of my pets (ferrets and cats) when we were gone for the weekend. She has been easy to reach and left detailed report cards after each visit.”

“Luke was great! He sent pictures each day and gave me an update. He never gave up on winning over one of my cats and it finally paid off. I appreciate his professionalism.”

“We were nervous to leave our elderly kitty since he has kidney disease and needs subQ fluids every day, but Tia was amazing and completely set our mind at ease. She sent us pictures and an update every day and we could tell kitty was doing great in her care. We will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Abby was prompt and sent pictures of my little guy during the visit. When we got home, he was very happy! I highly recommend Abby. She is great with animals and very trustworthy.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs in my household since I was a child, but my experience caring for cats truly expanded in 2020 when I began fostering kittens of various ages. In 2021, I took my passion further by working as a veterinary assistant, gaining hands-on experience with medical care and daily cat and dog needs. Most recently, in 2024, I worked as a kennel technician at a local animal shelter while on break from college, where I cared for cats and dogs of all personalities and health backgrounds. I am trained in administering medications, handling pets of all ages and temperaments, and ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I would love the opportunity to bring this experience and care to your furry companions. I am free most afternoons, especially on weekends, if you're interested in a time, please send me a message and I will respond as quickly as I can, my schedule is fairly flexible! I personalize care for each pet in my care depending on their needs and requirements for me. I am happy to go slow, or jump right in depending on what they need and what their body language is telling me. I also abide by owner requests and requirements such as medication for each pet.
“Michelle was just absolutely wonderful with Snow and Storm. This was my first experience with Rover and Michelle's hospitality has made me a satisfied customer. Thank you!”

“Jessica is so thoughtful and conscientious when she takes care of the critters! I know I can relax and focus on the trip, knowing everyone and everything back home is being taken care of.”

“This was my second booking with Angel. He sent several sweet photos and videos of my kitty, who was clearly content with the situation. When I got home my cat acted like I was never gone. This is the best sign of a great cat sitter! My home was clean and tidy, just as I left it. I will definitely book Angel again.”

“Courtney was amazing caring for Peanut. Peanut likes to hide when we are gone. We did show her his hiding spot. She was great at sending us pictures of him. And as time went on, he even came out of his hiding spot and rubbed up against her leg. So that was amazing!! She took excellent care of him and I would highly recommend her!”


About: Ever since I was little, I have taken care of both young and senior animals, dogs and cats. I share love all the same no matter the size, age, or breed. I work full time, 9am-5pm on Monday and Tuesday, then 8am-4pm on Wednesday, friday, and Sunday. I am open to leaving work on my break, which can be taken at any time to feed, play, or let your animals outside. I will utilize the environment in which your pets are in to ensure they have the best and safest time possible, whether that's playing in the yard, walking your furry friends, or just lounging inside.
About: I've had animals my entire life - cats, dogs of all sizes, caged critters, etc. I've provided care for pets of family and friends both inside my home and theirs, and feel comfortable caring for animals with special needs. I am also a licensed cosmetologist and have been grooming my own double-coated dogs for over 10 years and am happy to help with grooming your babies! At this time I am unemployed and have a pretty open schedule to love on your babies! My pups prefer to have me home overnight but otherwise I'm very flexible. My yard is not fenced so potty time is leashed outside, however I do have a fenced patio and large finished basement where my two dogs love to play. I can crate if needed, my boys typically only crate when nobody will be home. Also, I do enjoy giving a good groom- bathing, brushing, ears, nails, and trimming.
“Amanda was very reliable and great with communication. It’s always scary not knowing someone well and having them stay at your house with your pets and she over exceeded our expectations. We appreciate it! Will definitely keep her on our list for the future!!”

About: I've watched beloved fur babies for friends and family for 15 years or more. Mostly got into it by word of mouth and my flexible availability. I can provide references if needed. Since I was young we have always had animals, and it's easy for me to be in a routine feeding them..just as I would myself. I meal prep and train regularly. So schedules are regular and second nature for me. I will care for your pet to your specific needs as possible. Weather it be certain potty schedules, and/or medication schedule. I have no problem adhering to the best of my power. I do work full time 8 hour days, & off most weekends. But can be flexible
About: I’ve caring for all sorts of animals since I was a little girl. I grew up caring for rabbits, gerbils, birds, lizards, cats and dogs. My family friend had a pitbull dog sanctuary, saving so many dogs from euthanasia. Growing up in an environment where every animal life is important, gives me the insane amount of love I have for all animals. I have volunteer experience at the Whatcom Humane Society located the Seattle area. I also have taken care of many different breeds of cats and dogs, knowing each has particularly personalities and require different things. I have had very timid and social cats, as well as seriously hyper or very mellow dogs. Exercise is really important to me when it comes to animals that need it. I can and will do everything I can to make sure your pet gets the exercise it wants and needs, as well as playing and getting the love and nurture all animals deserve regardless of look and size. Our fur babies are more than pets, they are family! I work from 4am - 9am everyday except Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am also a student, so it depends on who books first and what times they have booked for the day. My two cats thankfully get along well now, but for about 7 months I had to keep them separate and stayed committed to a slow introduction for safety and for the best possibility for bonding. I have patience and I can and will take all safety precautions necessary (as instructed).
