House Sitting in Shelter Bay

“Pam was the perfect person for staying with my 2 German Shepherds. I was so worried about kenneling them since they do not do well in kennels! Pam was able to walk, hike and play with them. They were happy! The house was immaculate when I came home after a week away! I highly recommend her. Thank you Rover!”

“Ron did a great job taking care of our baby. Oliver is an American bully who is sweet and needy. Ron gave him a lot of love while we were out!”

“Audrey did a great job keeping our deaf dog and our visitor's dog while we went to Friday Harbor. She was very nice when we messed up our ferry schedule & got home much later than planned. She was patient with our dog who doesn't like new people. Hopefully they can get to know each other over time. Thanks Audrey!”

“Amber watched our dogs for 4 days, and everything went great. She kept me in the loop when she checked in on everyone and made sure they were loved on.”

“We are so happy to have found Karolina! She and our kitty seem to really love each other. She takes such good care of our house, and keeps our kitty happy while we are away. We have no worries when she is there.”

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.

About: Lover of pets! I’d love to meet your furry (or not so furry) friend. I’m very active, so long walks & even hikes are totally alright by me! I’m here to help you and your pet thrive. Whether that’s walking, playing, feeding, companionship, bathing , etc. I have been caring for pets since I was a youth. Whether that was neighborhood pets, friends pets or family pet. I have experience with a wide range of ages & sizes. I used to live out on a farm for several years and care for kittens, chickens, goats, pigs, and dogs. I helped take care of newborn kittens, feed and foster trust with them. Regularly cleaning the chicken coop, feeding them, collecting eggs and just hanging out with them. I would feed, brush and hang out with the goats also clean out pen. I raised a pig for 4H feeding, caring, and spending lots of quality time with him. And then of course dogs, I spent a good amount of years caring for two labs. Running them, washing them, cleaning up their dog house, feeding them. Snuggles and cuddles of course. I have notoriously always had an orange cat in my life; however living on the farm had about 6-7 cats I cared for. Them being farm cats mostly wanting to be fed and hung out with me in the grass or came by for pets. Neighborhood cats would get pregnant leading me to foster relationships with their kittens, a lot of times rescuing them, cleaning them up and bringing them back to wellness then re-homing them. Overall, I’d love to play & care for your pet as you see fit! Ideally I’d prefer a meet & greet prior to care. I have a very open and flexible schedule; morning's, afternoons and most evenings I should be around. My work schedule is currently evenings Sunday through Tuesday. I make sure pets are fed on time always have water and are let out whenever needed. I also make sure cat’s litter boxes are well maintained.

“From Anika's first stroking of my cat's fur during our meet and greet, I could see that he felt comfortable with her. It was comforting to know that he would let her provide the love and cuddles we wouldn't be home to give him. Thank you, Anika for taking good care of our senior cat!”

“Jessica was exceptional. On time, great communicator, neat and tidy in my house, and so kind. My dog Luca loves her. I felt so at ease leaving him with her! And I am a neurotic dog dad lol.. She’s just the best!!”

“Samara was the perfect fit for my dog who has separation anxiety. Her calm, confident demeanor kept Buster relaxed and happy for the entire time we we gone. Samara was very flexible and asked great questions. I will not hesitate for a second to book her again!”

“Finding someone we can trust with our girls has always been the biggest reason we don’t travel much. But after working with Morgan, we’ve finally found that person! She was absolutely amazing with our Abby and Penny, treating them with so much love and care. We got daily updates and photos, which totally put us at ease. It felt like we were still connected to them even while we were away! When our flight got delayed, Morgan went above and beyond and stayed late to make sure the girls were fed and walked, which was a huge relief. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and who genuinely loves and will treat your fur babies as if they were her own, Morgan is your girl. We couldn’t be more grateful!”

Pam L.

“We were so thankful that Veronica was available while we were out of town for 8 days to stay with our pup in our home. She sent pics often which always made my day and kept us updated. We felt very happy and secure knowing she was there with Kelowna. Would highly recommend and we will definitely use again!”

About: I’ve always had pets as my best friends! I grew up with my two dogs, a golden retriever and an Australian shepherd, have had three cats, one who had a litter and I helped watch over her and her kittens, and I have raised chicks many times with my family. I’ve had many pet sitting gigs for family friends and know great trail systems that are good for walking and safe from roads. I love animals and would love to help take care of yours!! I am currently a senior in high school and so I am in class from 7:50-2:20 every week day until June 12th but am available any other time of day! I enjoy taking pets for regular walks throughout the day on safe trail systems, some where they can run off leash without worry of cars or many other people or animals, and am used to keeping them on a timely schedule with meals because I do that for my dogs. I love to play games like fetch or tug-a-war with them to help get all their fun energy out and cuddle them after when they’re tired!

“Katrina was great! She was super sweet to Oliver and left the house super clean! She was incredibly responsive and gave updates on Oliver while we were abroad! I would absolutely book Katrina again!! Thanks for being so kind to Ollie!!”

“Donna was OUTSTANDING. She took such good care of our golden retrievers for the four days we were gone. She is a dog whisperer. They clearly felt her love. She was a fantastic communicator with us and an overall very kind person. I can’t say enough positive things about Donna! We hope to reserve her again.”

“I'm a veterinarian and very glad I found Elisabeth to take care of my old dog at my house recently! She was very communicative, detail-oriented, trustworthy and reliable -- I've already booked her again!”

Chris M.

“Phenomenal! Best dog sitter we've had. Our pup is 18 and needs some tender loving care with full-time attention. Bridgette understood exactly what we we wanted. Took great notes. Reiterated what we asked so she had clarity. While we were gone she checked in regularly and shared pics of our pup. The small details, like cleaning the main area, washing sheets and remaking bed, and the note were top-notch.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teen. Neighbors relied on me to care for their dogs. I enjoy walking dogs, and will make sure you dog gets a nice walk. I can walk dogs and or care for your pets in the early morning and after 4pm on weekdays, and anytime on weekends. I am an excellent option especially for weekends. We have a fenced yard, and a nice big house. We live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. Your dog will be spoiled at our house.

“Kaitlyn was wonderful! Her communication was great and our sweet Zesty boy had a fun time with her. We appreciated all of the photo and video updates we received throughout our trip. We would have Kaitlyn back to watch our home and our pup again in a heartbeat:)”

“Sabina did such a wonderful job house sitting for us and watching our two big dogs! One of them has a couple of quirks and requires multiple long walks a day and Sabina was able to accommodate that. She was super communicative and sent us pictures of the doggies every day so we could feel at ease during our trip! Our dogs seem very happy, and our house was spotless coming back home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you, Sabina!”
