Pet Sitting Striebels Corner

“Shelby is an excellent sitter. We burdened her with a litany of tasks for our three cats: litter boxes, food, water, water fountains, meds, and she handled them with professionalism and efficiency. She got her share of surprises too, including some cat vomit. Again, not rattled. Shelby did everything we asked of her, and was so attentive to our cats, playing with them in between tasks and sending boatloads of pictures. Her report cards are detailed and yet concise. Highly recommend her.”

“Alana is wonderful! Our skittish kitties both will come to her, and are quite confident around her. She always goes the extra mile, sends great photos and is quickly responsive to messages. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”

“I feel confident when I leave for work that my dog Gemma is in great hand with Karen, Karen is a great communicator, and responsive to request to care for you pet. I’m fortunate to have found her on Rover!”

“Izzy is always amazing with our pets. She is easy going and communicative and always sends lots of pictures of her drop ins. She consistently spends over 30 minutes with our cats and is great! We’ve used her for about 8 months now for week long and weekend trips.”

“Bailey did an amazing job! Kitties were happy and healthy when we came home and, according to their pictures, were happy and healthy throughout her visits!”

Jessica T.

“Everything went great! Lisa & Bryan K. took excellent care of our cats, one of which is a senior cat with special dietary needs. This is our second experience with Lisa and we are more than pleased. It means so much that we are able to travel and know that our cats are well cared for.”

About: I have been house/pet sitting for a few years now. But aside from that I have a dog and cat of my own! I love hanging out with animals and giving them love and affection. I have loved animals since I was little and have helped take care of my pets since elementary school! I would love to show your animals some love while your away, letting them know they are safe! I am currently unemployed and have a bunch of free time to engage with your animals! I want to include taking care of loving animals into my weekly and/or daily routine! I will walk your dog, play fetch, snuggle and give lots of tummy rubs! I know that your pet will be most comfortable in their safe, familiar environment and want to make sure that your pet is happy!

“Kyrna was great with my pup! She followed instructions well and was flexible with my adjustments, and I could tell my girl was happy from their time together. I hope to use her services again in the future!”

They’re living happy healthy lives I’m sure I’ll have no problems taking care of yours!

I will listen to your animals.

About: I had previous experience with working in a doggy day care for about 5 years. The last 3 years i have been a veterinary technician assistant, assisting with animals of all sizes! I currently do work full time. I could probably fit in an evening walk, let’s chat about it! I am free to do the weekends. I have a lot of animals! I have 3 dogs( 2 are large and ones small), and 5 cats! All of my cats are indoor only, they have 3 cat trees and several liter boxes for them. I live on 2.5 acres and my dogs have really good recall, we don’t have any issues with the big ones running off, (the little one sometimes does but only if you arnt watching, which means I’m always watching). I have a pond and couldn’t let it go to waste so i added ducks and geese! One of my cats gets medication, two of my dogs gets medication as well. I trim all my cats nails, one of them i have my husband hold for me because it’s not his favorite thing in the world. I trim all my dogs nails. My little dog gets bathed every 3 weeks (he has really bad allergies). I’m really open to getting to know any animal!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give each pet. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and quirks, and I take the time to learn what makes each one feel safe and happy. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to the little things—from making sure a nervous pup feels comfortable to keeping an energetic dog entertained and giving senior pets the extra patience and care they need. I’m also very conscientious about following feeding schedules, medications or special instructions, exercise routines, and each owner’s preferences. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and care for them as I would want someone to care for my own. My goal is for your dog to have a fun, comfortable experience while giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. My schedule gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, dependable care throughout the week. I’m able to plan my day around my pet-care commitments, including walks, drop-ins, and extended visits, rather than rushing through them. I’m flexible with scheduling and understand that every pet has different needs and routines. I’m happy to work with owners on feeding times, walks, playtime, and other care instructions to keep their pets as comfortable and happy as possible. When I commit to caring for a pet, I make them a priority—not just another stop on my schedule. 🐾 Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, feeding instructions, exercise needs, and any special care before I begin. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep a close eye on pets throughout their visit, walks, or stay. In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would expect for my own. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep pets away from anything potentially unsafe, and leave the home clean and secure when I leave. Whether I’m caring for a pet in their home or taking them for a walk, I want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident. I’ll provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for. 🐾

About: I’ve grown up with pets and truly can’t imagine life without them! I currently have a 12-year-old Frenchton who I’ve had since she was just 3 months old, as well as two cats. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I work from home a couple of days a week and have a fairly flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding Friday through Wednesday and can accommodate drop-in visits any day of the week. As a longtime pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you can feel confident they’re happy and comfortable. In my home, pets will be treated like part of the family and given plenty of attention, affection, and a safe, comfortable place to relax.

About: Hi! I’m Irina, a proud mama to a wonderful 18-year old daughter. I’ve always had a deep love and respect for animals, they bring so much joy and have a way of reminding us what really matters. They teach us kindness, patience, and how to be our authentic selves. Honestly, I think they’re some of the best teachers in life. I would be absolutely thrilled to help care for your pet. I know how special they are, and I’ll treat them with the same love, gentleness, and attention I give to the things most important in my life. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them all the care they deserve! I work full time, and off work by 430. I’m available for drops in after work and on my days off which are Mondays and Tuesdays! I follow their routine to keep pets comfortable and cared for. I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get playtime, and enjoy lots of love and attention.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I’ve grown up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even a pet rat! I love animals and want to spend time with them as much as possible! I believe animals are definitely humans best friend and should be treated accordingly! My experience over the years has taught me how to care for and respect an animal. I also have experience with giving oral medication and providing updates to owners about how their pets are doing while in my care. Pet care is something I’m passionate about because animals give me so much joy and unconditional love! Pet care fits into my open schedule to be able to enjoy taking care of others pets! Caring for someone’s animal is like having another one myself. I do like detailed information about the animal’s likes and dislikes. I also want to make sure that the animal is comfortable with me and that the owner feels good about leaving them in my capable hands!

“Ava was so wonderful! She was very attentive and sweet to my pets and they clearly loved her.”

About: When your pet stays with me, I want you and them to rest assured that they are part of the family. My goal is to keep your pets routine as close to normal as possible while you are away. I have been pet sitting on Rover for 9 years and have 10+ years experience before that. During that time I have done stays as short as an afternoon to staying at a house for 2 whole months! You can expect frequent updates with pictures while you are away and be able contact if you need anything. I have even done video calls with owners during longer stays! One of my favorite things to do is take dogs on a nice long stroll on nice days. There is a wonderful trail just behind my house that makes for a perfect nature walk. Of course, if your pet prefers to lounge around and play inside, I'm fine with that too! I put a lot of time, and energy into training my dog using positive reinforcement, patience, and treats (lots of treats). I still keep up with the latest methods on dog and cat behavior today. When I pet sit I put that same dedication and commitment towards whomever I am watching. Medication Experience: I am trained in Pet CPR and First Aid -experienced with administering pills and liquid medication -have given more advanced care but would like a run through with you prior to the stay My House and Neighborhood: I am a half mile away from the Kingston ferry, which is about a 2 minute drive from the time you get off to my house. I live on the 3rd floor of a condo building which provides a large grass yard to play in as well as 2 patios for any pet that enjoys some fresh air. There is a walking trail behind where I live and I am a 15 minute walk to the beach. My Pets: I have 2 cats that are both very friendly with other animals. They love to play with other kitties and tend to give dogs their space. My house is cat-ified with cat trees galore, window sills to peer out of, tunnels to hide in and scratch posts to well.. scratch. I work from home 3 days a week (Tues, Thur, Fri) and go into Seattle for work Mon and Wed. I leave the house at 8:15 and get home around 6:00pm. If your pet needs me to be home sooner I can be home as soon as 4:15pm. During the work from home days I will be able to take pets out on potty breaks, give meals, do short walks, and give some cuddles and play time. Keeping harmony and peace in my home is a top priority for me and I am always very aware of what all the critters are up to while I am home. In the event of your pet being uncomfortable I am able to provide them their own private room as well as put some pet gates up give the cats a place to escape to. Introductions and interactions with my pets will always be supervised until I know everyone is comfortable.

“Laurie was fantastic! She took outstanding care of our 2 cats, including giving one of them medicine twice a day. She let us know how they were doing each time she came, with notes and pictures. It was very comforting knowing our fur-babies were well taken care of while we were gone. Thank you Laurie. We will definitely have you back again!”
