About: Dog lover with lots of energy & experience! 🐶 Hi! I currently live with two golden retrievers, so I’m used to lots of dog hair, big smiles, and even bigger energy. I love being outside, going on long walks, and I’m quick on my feet which is perfect for keeping up with playful pups! I’ve spent plenty of time caring for dogs of family and friends, whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just hanging out and giving belly rubs. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away. Need to take a weekend trip without your pup? I currently work part time and will be able to fit pet care, pet visits, and dog walking any time Thursdays, Fridays, and on the weekends. I know every pet is different, and I’m all about making sure they feel comfortable and cared for in their own home. I always treat your pet and your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. Making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved is my top priority!

About: I have had pets since I was born, and from age 5 I started to help withtheir care. I have always had a deep love for animals. I have had cats, dogs, guinea pigs, mice, rabbits, etc. I may not be a professional, however, I believe I am pretty knowledgeable about cats and dogs, their care, and some training. 3rd year in college, studying mathematics at WSU. I have had pets all my life back home and I lived them all sooo much. I am free most of days of the week in between my classes, good for drop ins and dog walks :) Lots of play, cuddle, excercise and attention. What ever the pet needs and wants, I try my best to fullfil. If they need to let out energy, let them play in the yard, if they need alone time, let them nap, etc. Lots of toys and enrichment activities, and lots of love.

About: What makes my pet care different is the personal touch I bring to every visit. I don't just care for your pets-I make sure you feel connected to them while you're away. I love capturing their personalities through fun photos and sending you daily updates so you never miss a tail wag, silly pose, or happy moment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family is safe, loved, and having a great time, while giving your pets the attention, play, and care they deserve. As a full-time online student, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize caring for pets throughout the week. I'm available during weekdays for walks, drop-ins, and playtime, and I also offer overnight care for families who need extra support. Because my classes are online, I can easily adjust my time to fit your pet's routine, ensuring they get consistent attention, companionship, and care whenever you need it. I am a trustworthy sitter with four years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, understand that every animal has unique needs and I adapt my care to fit their routine, personality, and comfort. My reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals mean you can feel confident knowing your pet is in safe, caring hands. With a flexible schedule, I make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve-just as if they were my own.

About: Devoted owner of pitbull-boxer mix, Humane Society rescue for 13+ years until he passed last summer. Have always had dogs in my life. Heart too bruised to adopt again, but too big to not be in service to the best creatures on earth. Empty nester with an incredibly flexible schedule. I'm a younger, newly retired k-12 public educator that walks EVERY day. After losing our dog last summer, I would love to share my energy and heart with new-to-me dog friends. Incredibly dependable and committed. Clear communicator. We have a secure back yard, one level home in quiet cul-de-sac for short term stays. Love engaging and caring for all precious pups ❤️

About: We have both taken care of pets since we were young! I (Alexa) have grown up with furry friends my whole life, and I LOVE all animals (though I do have a soft spot for dogs). Connor has grown up with pets his whole life as well. We’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors before, with all kinds of critters. Alexa has experience volunteering at local animal shelters, and has had the pleasure of listening to Lee Asher speak in person. We are also currently the owners of a small dog, a big dog, and a very mischievous cat. We are both very well equipped to care for animals anywhere from a mouse to a horse. Your babies are in wonderful hands with us. I (Alexa) currently work as an EMT, which means I work only 7-8 days per month. That leaves plenty of time to go wherever duty calls! Connor gets his work schedule week by week, but normally has Fridays and Saturdays off. We are willing to house/pet sit for you, walk your animals, and do daily checkups for you as well. In a clients home, we will respect your space and only do what is necessary. You can count on us to make sure your furry friend has all that they need while you are gone, in the safety and security of your own home.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, and I can't imagine it any other way! From a young age, I took the initiative to train my own dogs, learning along the way and growing my skills. While I don't currently have a pet of my own, I'm excited about the opportunity to spend time with your dog and fill that special void in my life. Meeting and caring for your pet would truly be a rewarding experience for me! Schedule varies throughout the week but I do my best to update it so my availability is accurate. As of right now I am pretty open. I treat all animals as if they were mine. I just want to make sure that they are properly cared for and feel comfortable around me. :)

I was very happy with the pictures he sent of them on their walk and he was right on time. Very reliable and punctual. We will definitely be using Sean again for Clipper’s walks. Highly recommend!

About: With over a decade of dedicated experience as a pet sitter, my passion for animals runs deep. I've spent the last 10 years providing dependable and loving care to countless dogs, cats, and other pets, treating each one with the same love and attention I gave my own. My long history in pet care has equipped me with the skills to handle everything from daily walks and feedings to administering medications and managing special needs, giving you complete peace of mind while you are away. I look forward to meeting you, Payton I work as a nanny 7-2 Monday-Thursday. I will not be out of the house for longer than those 8 hours for work before checking in on them. Caring for a pet in a clients home can often be easier than having them stay at my home. Most pets are most comfortable with areas that are familiar to them which is no issue at all to me. I’m flexible and don’t mind if I commute to work.

About: Trustworthy, Reliable & Attentive Care for Your Pet and Home 🐕🐈🏡 . I had two dogs growing up in the South Sound area 🐶🐶, have done some wonderful house and pet-sits which resulted in 12 out of 12 Five-Star reviews from a leading global house-sitting platform. You can see screenshots of these reviews in my photo gallery! Let me know if you’d like me to share my many excellent professional work references and 40+ positive Airbnb reviews. . While I used to pet sit while traveling with my teen daughters, I now operate strictly as a solo sitter/ walker, and will be the only person providing care for your pets and visiting your home. . As a UW-Seattle graduate, former sales and marketing executive, and current online business owner / remote worker, I bring absolute respect, clear communication, professionalism and mature responsibility to your home. I’m a clean, quiet, middle-aged gal who doesn't smoke, drink or (heaven forbid) do drugs. . I’m keen to supplement my income with something active and fun that I love doing but this time, for my own local community... taking care of adorable pets! 🐱🐶 . What I’d Love to Offer Your Household: . 🐶🐱 Attentive Pet Care: I’ll treat your pets like family, making sure they get plenty of love, walks, play, and that their daily routine is followed. Even shy, sensitive and senior dogs and cats take a shine to me. . 🏡 Respectful Home Care: I am tidy, follow directions well, and will always respect your space. I’m happy to handle daily household needs like watering plants, bringing in mail/packages, and taking out the garbage. I pride myself on leaving pet sit homes in the exact same condition I found them if not better. . 📱Regular Communication: I’m happy to text you updates and send photos of your favorite cuties regularly so you can be rest assured that they are doing well in my care. 💬📸🐶🐱 . 💊 Medical Needs: I have experience administering medications and handling unexpected situations (like vet visits) calmly and efficiently. . 🚙 Active Adventures: If you would like me to, I’d be happy to take energetic dogs to local trail outings or the nearest dog parks to get their wiggles out and socialize. The back of my SUV is clean and animal ready. . 🗓️ Schedule & Routine: For overnight sits, I’ll stay in your home so your pets feel comfortable in their own environment. My schedule is flexible, but a few days a week I step out for mid-morning local errands and appointments that take no more than 6 hours maximum. Outside of those hours, your pets will have my full attention. Because I run an online business, I will often be working on my laptop right at your home while your pup snoozes at my feet or your cat snuggles on my lap. . I look forward to having a Meet-and-Greet to ensure we are a perfect fit for a happy, comfortable sit! 🗓️ For pet/house sits, I provide dedicated overnight care in your home so your pets can feel comfortable in their own environment while you are away. I will enjoy spending my evenings playing with your pets, or we can snuggle together and watch a dog or cat-friendly flick on Netflix! . My schedule is flexible, but a few days a week I step out for mid-morning local errands and appointments that take no more than 5 or 6 hours maximum. Outside of those hours, your pets will have my full attention. Because I run an online business part-time, I will often be working on my laptop right at your home while your pup snoozes at my feet or your cat snuggles on my lap. . I'm also available for drop ins to check on your cuties and take care of their needs. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. Over 12 pet owners have rated me 5 stars (on another platform... see photos)) and praised me for providing trustworthy and safe care as well as keeping their homes clean and respected. . When house sitting, I ensure all doors and gates are securely locked at all times, food and hazards are kept out of reach, and dogs are always kept on a secure leash during walks. I’m highly observant of any changes in a pet's energy or appetite, and I keep owners updated daily with photos and messages. Please view screenshots of my verified reviews directly in my photo gallery! =) . For peace of mind, I highly recommend an in-person Meet & Greet before our first scheduled service. This helps establish a great rapport between us and, most importantly, between me and your pets. That way, I’m already a familiar face to your fur babies when I arrive for the sit, and we can start off on the right paw! . I am glad to care for well-behaved large dogs! I am comfortable walking a single large dog that might pull a bit, but to ensure safety, I prefer not to walk two strong pullers simultaneously. I had a frustrating experience once trying to use those silly backpack harnesses / leashes on my human twins when they were toddlers and they tried to run in opposite directions at the Puyallup Fair or kept going around my legs so I couldn’t walk 😂
