About: I grew up in a large industrious family (the Duntons) full of farm animals, cats, and dogs next to Lake Erie. I’ve taken care of animals throughout my life, and am part of a well-known and trusted large family in the Anacortes area with many well-known, trusted small family businesses (Dunton’s Body Shop, 6th Street Hair Co, Gae’s Drapery, Fidalgo Flower & Co, and more) and can be trusted with your home and pets. Thanks for looking! Fully open schedule. I can adapt to any feeding, behavioral, or exercise schedule your pet or pets may have. This is supplementary income for a fixed income retired situation. Highly skilled pet care from a trusted local family member woven into the Anacortes community. Absolute careful and loving pet care coming from decades of experience. Your pets are in excellent hands!

About: Since I was very young I have loved and cared for our dogs and cats. For the pups, taking them for long walks and spoiling them with toys and cuddles are among my specialties! For my cats, they are the lucky recipients of lots and lots of petting, cat toys and of course their favorite meals. I have an open schedule and can stop in for regular, long dog walks or stay over for overnight pet sitting and for any pet needs in between. I have experience with all ages and all sizes of dogs and cats and like to know all of your pet's favorite things and quirk so I can make my time with them super comfotable and fun. I am far away from home and miss my animals, now Rover gives me that chance to share my love of pets with others! I have time in the mornings and evenings to play, feed, and walk the pups. I never leave a dog for longer than 8 hours but I try to make 6 the max. In my own home it’s important to make sure they have some pieces of their home like toys, a bed, and a space to feel comfortable. In your home, I know it’s their space not mine. I care a lot about respecting others’ space.

About: I love animals!! I have an 8 year old golden doodle and she loves new friends! We are very active so your pet will get plenty of play time and exercise with us. I am home frequently and can accommodate dogs of many needs. I have used rover many times myself and I aim to provide the same high-quality love and care that my dog has received. Please let me know your animals exercise, feeding, sleeping, and cuddling routine so we can make them feel as at home as possible! I currently work part time and I am in school where I do most of my studies from home. I take frequent walks around the neighborhood and love to explore places in nature with my dog as well. I spend lots of time at home, ensuring your pet has the time and attention they deserve. I love taking care of animals and treating them like they are my own babies!

Sedro-Woolley, WA, 98284

About: I still have few spots available in May, June and part of July, so book your pet sitting now! Sedro-Woolley, Bellingham and Mount Vernon! As a school bus driver, I work 6-10 AM, then have few hours break and go back to my afternoon drive 2-6 PM. To ensure proper care for animals, I like to book clients no further than a 30 min drive from Sedro Woolley. Please take this into consideration when looking at a sitter for your pets! The school year ends June 12th and I am available until mid-July. Afterwards, I am taking time off for my own motorcycle travels (this time to Colorado) and then spend August in Europe :) I have owned cats, large dogs (100 + lbs), and horses over the years, so I'm well-versed in handling a variety of pet needs. I am comfortable around animals and can stand my ground with them. I enjoy large breeds and, having two 150Lbs + dogs before I know how hard it is to find someone to take care of them! I am available for short and long term stays in Whatcom and Skagit counties. Dogs, cats, horses, turtles and fish - all welcomed and loved! I work as a school bus driver, so I leave the house early in the morning for few hours, then have 2-4 hrs off and then drive the kids home in the afternoon, usually 2-6 pm. If this is something that will work for you and your pet family, please reach out! I usually do a greet & meet before to make sure that everyone is comfortable! I will follow the directions you give me, be it giving medication to your pets, putting it in the crate at night or when away and any other rules that you may have.

Michael was great! He came over to meet our pup Marley ahead of time, so she would know him when he came to take her out. Great communication and sent pics of her during their walk. Will definitely use his services again!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As the daughter of two veterinarians, I grew up working in a veterinary clinic. More recently, I worked in a dog boarding facility, so I am comfortable caring for animals of all behavior types and physical conditions. I understand how important our pets are to us and I am eager to help ! I work another part time job, and my schedule gives me plenty of openings throughout the week to stop by. I am available Monday-Tuesday and Thursday-Saturday on most weeks, but my schedule is flexible. I have a car and am able and willing to drive to clients’ homes within a wide radius. I will treat your home with respect and will leave it cleaner than I left it, if you want. I cannot take care of animals in my own home but I am happy to drive to your home.

We are so lucky to have found Aline to walk our Benji boy every week ❤️ Aline is so kind, communicative, and flexible with schedule changes. Her updates to me about Benji are filled with many cute pictures of Benny which help keep me at ease knowing he’s having lots of fun and being taken care of. Aline does not spare any details making sure I know where they walked, how his poop was, and if he behaved 😊 She also has experience with reactive dogs, which was an amazing bonus to us because Benji can be reactive around other big dogs— so we know he’s in good experienced hands with someone that knows how to handle his spicy side 🤣 We are thankful for Aline for taking care of our boy! ❤️

About: Hello! My name is Lauren and I have been taking care of animals on and off since I was a little girl. I have sat for puppies, seniors, cats, dogs, and everything in between. I have a bird and three dogs of my own, including a Saint Bernard. I love animals and I am hoping to get to meet some new ones. Right now, I am home from college in Seattle for the summer. I am currently taking bookings for any day of the week and at any time! Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to take pets on walks/potty breaks as often as needed. I always make an effort to tidy up toys or the home in general before leaving and I am very comfortable crating/feeding/playing with dogs of any size.

About: I’ve taken care of pets before, staying over at a clients house to care for them day and night. Getting up at specific times when they’re used to getting fed, taking dogs for walks, playing with them, brushing them, etc. I have loved animals since I was a kid, and have grown up with cats my whole life. I work part time as a nanny so some days I would be gone for a few hours but complete open availability in the evening. I have an unfenced yard not near a road. I live in an apartment with one roommate that is spacious and the apartment building is pet friendly!

About: Previous groomer with over 7 years of professional experience with dogs and cats. Will happily love and care for any type of animal friend. Pets I board must be good with kids but drop in pets are ok either way. My best friend Gus crossed the rainbow bridge in December 2025 and while I’m not ready to find another friend yet, I’m ready to help people to ensure their besties are happy and healthy. Outside of boarding and walking, I can do nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, hair brushing and administer medicine if needed. I work full time and work remotely periodically. My schedule is pretty flexible so depending on your needs I can be available at a variety of times and days. I have a fully fenced yard and a doggy door. I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of options for walking routes. I keep my home tidy so that pets won’t get into anything they shouldn’t.
