“My dogs loves Murron! She has walked my giant and mini schnauzer a couple of times throughout the week and I will continue to rebook her service. Murron will ACTUALLY walk your dog for at least 30 minutes sometimes more! She doesn’t check in with the walk until she is actually outside with my dogs. I have experienced so many sitters checking in when they are still in their car or sitting in their car for a few minutes to end the walk. Murron is honest and dependable. She also treats and talks to my dogs very sweetly.”
“Samantha helps me be a better dog mom. She is so loving and attentive with my dog. Since Samantha has been walking my dog, my dog has been much less reactive on leash and is a better citizen. Samantha is an excellent, sweet person and I’m so thankful for her care of my dog.”
“Bridget was great with Suzette. She is a big girl and is sometimes hard to handle. It was apparent that Bridget is a professional and great with dogs. Thank you Bridget. Will use you again.”
“Amazing! Absolutely amazing. Great communication, very trust worthy. Loves animals and is great with my disabled pup. Couldn't have asked for a better sitter/dog walker.”
“When there was a late sick call at work and I had to work 12 hrs without notice, Ari quickly agreed to walk Chewie three times that same day. The other nurses at our hospital day "thank you, Ari"”
About: I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike! I mostly work from home, so your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.
About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.
About: I grew up on a farm with many types of animals, from horses to turtles, I love learning about new critters! My jobs have all been centered around animals, including as a vet assistant where my responsibilities covered birth to end of life care of our patients. I have experience with diabetic dogs and cats, and I know how important it is to get medications on time. I personally love quirky animals, or shy ones who need a quiet, confident person that they can trust to take good care of them (and their owners will too!) I am currently working part time on my own schedule, and I would be able to care for your animal in the morning, noon, and at night. I am not able to bring your animal to my home, but I will ensure that your home is clean when you return, and that your animal will be loved and cared for while you are away!
“Paige has been awesome. Very dependable and our Basset, Maddie loves her walks with Paige. I booked a couple of days to start while my wife was hospitalized and I was spending long hours there. I have now booked a second week, two walks a day because Paige has proven to be excellent!”
About: I’ve had animals throughout my life. Currently, I have two kitties. I’ve also had a snake, dogs, and chickens before. I have experience with both large and small dogs. From administering medication to playing fetch, I can help with your pet’s needs! I’m currently working part time in the evenings and I’m looking to fill up my schedule a little bit more. I thought, no better way to spend my time than with some animals! I’m available during the days on weekdays and all day on weekends! I try to approach every situation with pets very calmly, I know every animal is unique and has its own boundaries. I make sure to never make the pet feel threatened or scared in their house or around me in general. Animals are so intuitive and smart, you have to approach them with love and respect!
“Helena is such a pro!!! We have 2 large dogs, one of which is reactive. Her calm demeanor and positive reinforcement resulted in a great visit and walk. She was even able to take him on the trails near own home. Highly recommend!”
About: We are an active dog loving family in Olympia. We love to get out to Capital Forest on the weekend or run or walk to our local parks. We work from home most days and otherwise work close to home. We work full-time from home 3 days per week and venture into the office a short distance 2 days per week. Our early morning feed and walk routine makes us ideal for hosting your pet at our place or for making a morning visit to care for your dog. We have a fenced front and back yard. The fence is high (6ft). We offer a quiet environment with much dog lounging to be had as well as playtime outside or in. Our wooded side lot offers many birds, sounds and smells for dogs to enjoy.
About: I grew up with a dad that trained dogs and I have watched, trained, and cared for dogs my whole life. I love all animals and would love to take care of your fur baby! I have an extremely flexible schedule, I can accommodate most request. I would love to make pet care taking a full time role! Your fur baby will be getting my upmost care and attention. In my home I have pet cameras and separated areas for your pet to play in. Additionally I make sure the ground and reachable areas are always clear of any chocking hazards. In your home I will make my goal to keep your home and pet secure and safe.
About: * summer is here and I still have a few openings left so book asap! Also... I know it seems too early and sunny to think about the holidays, but I usually book up months in advance so reach out, even if you don't have exact travel plans, but know you'll need pet care. I currently have Labor Day already booked, but mid November - New Years is pretty much open, except one booking in Dec. Check my updated calendar. My dog care experience spans all ages and breeds. I know puppies are more work, but I enjoy working with them on leash and obedience training to maintain good habits while their people are away. I have experience with giving daily medications and have cared for senior dogs, one who needed daily blood sugar testing and insulin shots. I live mobile between pet sitting gigs staying with friends and family from Marysville to Olympia. I started pet sitting for clients when I was house cleaning during the time I was in grad school. Because I was already working in their homes and had biweekly interactions with their pets, it was an easy transition to pet care. It was also during this time that a couple of professors inquired about pet sitting. I was a backup for one of thier regular sitters and the other, I'm still their regular sitter 7+ years later. I care for your pets the same way you would. They like to sleep in the bed with me? Cool. They need extra outside play time or walks to keep their anxiety low because you're gone? Done. I am very intuitive to reading their energy and do everything I can to meet their needs. Do you have some anxiety about being away and want pictures daily? Got it covered. My experience with house cleaning also menas I take care of the spaces I am staying so I am happy to water house plants and take care of gardens if needed.
