“Adrianna was great! She provided helpful updates and photos throughout her stay and left our home in great shape. Our cat was happy and well cared for. We plan to book with Adrianna again.”
“Sophia came over the day before for a meet n greet and I immediately knew it would be a great fit. She stayed the night with my elderly dog and pup and gave them lots of love. I felt confident they were well taken care of. She sent pictures throughout her stay (which I love)! I plan on using her for over night stays in the future!”
“Madison was absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend her to anyone. She stayed at our home for two weeks and took great care of our older dog and our cat. She is quick to answer any questions, sent us adorable updates, and took wonderful care of our home during a flood watch. She loved our animals so well and it provided such peace of mind while we were away. You shouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her.”
About: I’ve taken care of various pets since I was 10. I have cared for many dogs, including puppies and seniors, but I also have experience caring for cats and other pets as well. My attention to detail, cleanliness, and energetic attitude will make me the perfect candidate to care for your pet! I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, so I’m able to drop in and check on your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m willing to take on jobs last minute and can care for many pets a day. Before my beloved dogs Rosie and Sissie passed away due to old age, I took pride in caring for them every day. I understand the importance of having animals in our lives not just as pets, but as family. Caring for your pets would allow me to utilize my experience and fill the hole in my heart that was caused by the passing of my own fur babies ❤️
“Chloe was great with Nova. She was in contact with me throughout the stay and provided photos of my baby often. She was easy to work with and quick to respond to messages. Hoping to use her again!”
“Liz is the best pet/house sitter I've ever hired (and I've hired a lot). She is SO kind, and communicative. I got updates daily. My house was tidy when I returned. My animals seemed happy. I so appreciate her!”
“Havana was an absolute dream to work with and I could not recommend her enough!! Our sweet dog is a very anxious and selective girlie and she warmed up to Havana much quicker than she typically warms up to people! Havana was great about prioritizing her comfort, minimizing stress, and building trust. She was also extremely detail oriented and communicative and sent regular updates and check ins. Not only was she amazing with our dog, but we also had some emergency flooding that happened right before we left and Havana went above and beyond to help out with making sure maintenance could do what they needed while we were away. She left our place in great condition and gave us such peace of mind while we were gone. I’ll definitely be using Havana again and couldn’t say enough great things about her!”
“Daniella was absolutely amazing! She stopped by 2 times before the sit for my stranger-nervous dog to get to know her. She was very quick to respond to my messages, and shared lots of photos of them on walks or on the couch cuddling. I would happily have Daniella dog-sit for me again!”
“Karolina was a FANTASTIC cat sitter!!! We had an urgent request for a sitter and she truly saved the day!! She was incredibly responsive to any requests we had and was extra loving to our babies. She not only showered them with affection, she cleaned up their messes, and made sure they were well fed while she stayed in our home. Karolina also left our home as neat as she found it. I highly recommend booking Karolina and we will most certainly use her services again! Moreover, our cats were happy and relaxed when we got home which is their way of giving her a five paw review!! ☺️”
“They did a wonderful job with my two dogs and a cat while I was out of town for the holidays! Easy to communicate with, flexible, and especially knowledgeable about pitbull mixes needs!”
“Fantastic sitter who not only took care of my little girl, but also was extremely understanding and flexible! Got photos of my girl happy every day while I was gone and it put me at ease that she was safe and having a good time ❤️”
About: I have provided care for dogs and cats for over 20+ years. I was the first to volunteer in my youth to "stay home" with the animals. I am thoughtful and reliable and understand the importance of a maintained routine. I approach all visits with patience, care, and professionalism. I communicate clearly with pet parents and adjust my care to match each fur baby's personality. Trust and confidentiality are my priorities. Flexible schedule! I am currently between employment commitments while I assist family members with recent health concerns. I am organized and reliable and can accommodate regular visits as well as short-notice needs. I prioritize maintaining your pet's normal routine to reduce any stress and ensure comfort and safety. I follow care instructions closely and monitor behavior and overall well being. I communicate regularly and provide all requested updates. I treat the client's home with care, professionalism and discretion at all times. I am an active person and enjoy walks/runs.
“Brennan was amazing with my dog and even my cat was super happy! Was great at communicating, sending pictures, and asking questions. Very friendly and had the perfect energy to watch my Aussie/Border Collie mix. Definitely looking forward to the next time I can request his help.”
“Phil did a great job. He was able to help us out last minute and was more than accommodating. Our Rottweiler can be a bit intimidating, but he handled her like a pro. He stayed at our house and watched our dogs while we were away,”
About: What sets me apart is that I’ve raised and cared for my own dog since he was a puppy and he’s now three years old, so I’m comfortable with dogs at all stages of life. Growing up around dogs also gave me experience with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m currently a graduate student at WWU, so pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. Aside from a few set commitments (meetings and TAing from 8:00-11:00 a.m. on Tuesdays and 8:30-11:30 a.m. on Fridays) I have a flexible schedule and can plan my days around your pet’s needs for walks, feedings, playtime, and companionship. I do share a dog with my ex-partner, so I’m only available for overnight stays when my dog is with them. My availability will always be kept up to date to reflect this. I’m very mindful that I’m stepping into someone else’s home and into a pet’s familiar environment. I focus on keeping things calm, predictable, and secure by following the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I double check doors, gates, and leashes, keep food and household items out of reach, and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable at all times.
About: I have grown up loving and caring for animals and have lived with cats and dogs. Many neighbors, friends, and community members rely on me to care for their pets, which include dogs, cats, and other cherished creatures. I have years of experience working with reactive dogs, as my own dog struggles with reactivity. I have administered medication to various animals and have probably spent hours of my life cleaning pet-made messes! I am a college student, so while I am in school I will be available on weekday afternoons (around 3:00 onward) and can work any time on weekends! Starting mid-June I will be on break and have greater weekday flexibility (available mornings). I am accustomed to spending long stretches of time at clients' homes, adapting to the rhythms of pets' schedules, staying overnight if needed. I always settle in slowly, with gentle movements, to help the pet feel at ease when I am around. This is their home, and I'm a guest in it!
“Nora exceeded our expectations! We came home to happy and healthy animals and our house was in good order. Nora is courteous, was organized when she came to learn of our expectations, responsible and a remarkable lover of animals. We've never come home after traveling to happier animals. My husband and I would recommend Nora for the next time you need your pets and house cared for while you enjoy your time away from your home.”

We found Adrianna last minute for a 5 day trip and are so thankful that she was available! She came over for a meet and greet and our dogs immediately loved her. We felt very comfortable with her watching them while we were away which allowed us to enjoy our short getaway. She was very communicative throughout her stay and we appreciated all of the cute photos she sent!
Sophia was an amazing sitter for our anxious girl, Tala! She was incredibly sweet and communicative and left our home in great shape. She regularly send multiple photos and updates throughout the day and went above and beyond to spoil our girl the same way we would, even making her eggs for breakfast! It was clear that Tala warmed up quickly and felt safe with Sophia, which in turn made us feel such peace of mind leaving on our trip. She followed instructions perfectly and treated our girl with love, we couldn’t have asked for more. We will definitely be using Sophia again in the future!
Havana house/dog sat for us for 3 nights and 4 days and was phenomenal! Our dog Maya was very happy and I don't think she missed us at all, which is the highest compliment that I can give. Havana sent us photos and updates once a day, her communication was excellent. She walked Maya every day and played and cuddled with her. When we got home our house was spotless. I highly recommend Havana for house and dog sitting!
Ryana watched our two kitties over the holiday and we are so grateful for the care and attention she gave to both of them. Ryana reached out if any questions came up and responded very quickly. She shared photos while we were away which we always appreciate so much. She left our house clean and tidy and had a wonderful positive experience and would certainly use her again! Thank you Ryana!
Peyton took care of our cat and dog for a long weekend. She took our dog for many walks and spent lots of time with them. We appreciated the daily or twice daily updates about the pets and their pics. She was very respectful of our house and left everything clean. We will definitely book again!
Victoria was a great housesitter and cared for our cat while we were away. I was able to relax more and know that my little guy was getting some attention and affection, so I didn't feel guilty being away. She was great with him, we'll definitely request Victoria in the future.
