“Our new-to-us 12 1/2 year old Havanese rescue did very well with Michael’s care during our first afternoon outing since we adopted him. We have already scheduled another longer stay next month. We really appreciate all the dog friendly security and thoughtful enrichment activities Michael provides. Charlie was the better for the experience! Highly recommended.”
“Kat was such a life saver! I’ve been sick and my mom sprained her ankle so my dog was in need of a good long walk. Kat responded immediately to help, and my dog came back nice and tired from her hour long walk. My dog was in great hands with Kat - Highly recommend!”
“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”
About: I have experience in vet med, so I will be able to keep a detail-oriented eye on your pet's health and wellbeing. If it comes to it, I can take your beloved companion to the vet clinic while you're out of town and see to any at-home care they need, no problem. I currently make my income entirely through app-based freelance work, making it easy to interweave schedules. I can check in on your pet, go out and work for 2-3 hours, then come back again. ADHD tendencies serve me well in this situation-- I can focus on a show, a book, or working on my laptop, while still being peripherally aware of what your pet is doing, and taking time to check in and give lots of scritches and belly-rubs. I live in a shared housing situation, so I have plenty of experience leaving an environment that is not my own exactly as I found it.
About: I have an Australian Shepherd named Dexter who I love taking on all kinds of adventures! He's been across the country, on multi-day backpacking trips and up mountains! I walk or run my dog at least once everyday. He comes with my on any adventure that he can. I think its our duty as owners to make sure our dogs are physically and mentally stimulated while keeping them safe. Exercising a dog is great but you also want to make sure they are safe. On dog walks, this means bringing plenty of water and monitoring them to make sure that the physical activity is something they are still enjoying by looking for signs of distress.
About: I adopted my sweet Fox (Chihuahua mix) from the Oregon Humane Society over 10 years ago and he has been my best bud always by my side through all of life’s ups and downs and moves across states! My goal is to provide an environment where I would feel good about dropping my pup off at (they are our children after all!). My condo is small but there is no shortage of fuzzy blankets, pets, and walks! I current work from home, so I’m around most of the day outside of getting out for a run! I often run in the morning, during lunch, or after work but this can be flexible to suit the needs of the animals! I have a very friendly approximately 12 year old chihuahua mix. I live in a small condo but very close to walking areas and a dog park!
About: I've taken care of dogs who love everyone and those who are as choosy as cats in their people. I share my home with four cats, each one with their own style of pets and play (and their own diets). Every animal, just like every person, has their own personality. My goal is to pay attention and interact with them in a way that makes them feel safe, loved, and...if they're up for it...entertained. Need someone to walk your canine companions for a couple miles and then follow detailed instructions on which doggo gets what food and treats? That's me. Does your cat need someone to feed it and then sit in quietly in the same room for company without insisting on pets? That's me, too. Additionally, I have experience with administering medication to both cats and dogs (pills, inhalers, injections). I'm a remote-first professional, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Animals thrive with consistent routines, so I make a point to arrive on time and follow all owner directions. I regularly book between 7 AM and 9 PM, but currently my schedule is tight. Morning appointments are available if timing is flexible +\- a couple hours. My goal is to ensure that pets feel as safe and loved. Animals thrive on routine, so I'll be on time and follow your directions to ensure as much normalcy as possible while you're away. I have four cats, all of whom have different diets, play styles, and stranger tolerance, so I'm used to paying close attention to details. I'll earn your pets' trust by following your directions and adapting my approach to their needs. As a pet parent, I understand the importance of knowing how your companions are doing while you're away. I'll always check in with you and include pictures and updates. I'll never hesitate to reach out if I have any concerns or questions. While your pet is in my care, they are my number one priority.
“Autumn did a great job getting nico to feel comfortable and trusting and left nicely detailed notes. I had a family emergency and had to get a dog walker quickly and Autumn was very flexible and helpful. Thank you!”
“Erin has been an amazing daily walker for our dog Penny! She is always very responsive and reliable, and super sweet with our girl. Penny also recently spent the weekend boarding at Erin’s house, and she was treated very well and made some new friends! We will definitely continue to use Erin for taking care of our puppy.”
About: I've had dogs my whole life. I currently dog sit for my daughter's dog (a 2 year old golden retriever) and I would love to walk and/or take care of your dogs too! Retired with lots of free time! I have a flexible job and love getting outdoors and walking, so having a dog with me sounds great. I have a fenced yard and am comfortable walking on leashes with harnesses. Happy to do whatever makes your dogs comfortable, just let me know.
“Señe was amazing with our Daphne! You could tell immediately that she knew, loved and understood dogs. She was on time, professional and took the cutest pics of our pup on her walk. We look forward to booking walks with Señe again and again! !”
About: I’ve always loved animals, dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, etc., since before I could talk! They are my passion, and my goal is to study and become a veterinarian. I’m currently an unemployed college student, so I am able to dedicate lots of time and energy into your pet! I am committed to the wellbeing of the owner and pet. I have two dogs, a cat, and three fish tanks at home. They all have my full attention, as I am very detail oriented when it comes to animals. I enjoy walking my dogs, cuddling quietly with my cat, and cleaning and watching my fish tanks.
About: I've been an animal person my entire life. When I was in grad school at Western several years ago, I worked part-time for a local pet-sitting business, The Placid Pet, where I enjoyed four wonderful years of looking after client dogs and cats. Currently, I am a full-time writer seeking healthy activities to supplement the hours I spend in front of a computer. What better way to get that activity than to hang out with awesome dogs and provide my fellow Bellinghamsters with the peace of mind that comes with knowing your furry family member is happy and well taken care of? As a former college athlete and life-long hiker, I'm in good shape for whatever activity your dog needs. I'm available for short or long walks in your neighborhood or at a nearby park or trail of your choosing, and I'm also happy to stop in and snuggle with your anxious pet for as long as he or she needs. I've taken an animal CPR training course in the past and plan a refresher course in the near future. Your dog's health and well-being is of utmost importance to me, and as a former professional dog walker, I have the skills and experience to keep your pet safe and happy during my visits. As a writer, my time is flexible, so I can be available in the mornings, at lunch, or in the early afternoon on a regular basis. I coach soccer on the weekends, but an occasional Sunday visit might be possible as needed. I am experienced entering client homes to render service, and as someone who has lived with escape-artist pets, I am also accustomed to entering homes carefully to make sure even the wiliest of pets doesn't escape. My car has a dog gate in back so that your pet can travel safely, should you choose for me to take them to a park or trail.
About: I'm a caring and dependable animal lover with lifelong experience owning and looking after pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've also looked after others' pets and volunteered with animals. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and my priority is always to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I'm currently enrolled in online school and work part-time. I'm available for pet sitting on weekends and Wednesdays, with some additional weekday availability. I'm happy to discuss your specific needs and will always do my best to accommodate your pet's routine. I care for others' animals the same way I care for my own - with love, patience, and attention to their individual needs. My goal is always to make sure that every pet feels loved, supported, and well cared for - whether it's through daily routines, giving affection, or dedicating play time.
“Heather is the real dog whisperer! I was in a pickle and needed a new sitter ASAP. Recommended by my neighbor, I reached out 24 hours hours before leaving. After a very quick response, she was here and meeting the fam. Three dogs with three vastly different personalities, she won over the toughest cookie of the bunch within 24 hours. I finally found someone I feel 100% comfortable with when I travel! So very grateful to have find this gem of a human. If you need a sitter - stop looking. She's the one!”
“I had an early morning job and needed help with my pup on short notice. Thankfully Brooke was happy to help out and took my boy Zero for a nice morning walk. I would highly recommend Brooke for anyone in need of pet related services. Zero says 5 stars!”
“Melissa is really great and my dog loves her! Melissa is very responsive and helped me out on short notice. She even made the time to first meet my dog prior to taking her out on a walk. Libby (my dog) came back happy and tired. I’d book Melissa again in a heartbeat as I trust her with Libby. Thanks Melissa!”

Jön O.
“Jön has always been a lover of animals and a responsible caretaker for them. From a young age he took responsibility for training and caring for our family's dog. As an adult, I've trusted him to care for my cats many times, and he has gone above and beyond to feed, groom, and play with them while I'm away. If my cats could type, they would share that they're always thrilled to see him and would recommend his services to any animal in need.”
Sebastian P.
“Sebastian is a fantastic dog sitter! He truly cares about my dog and treats them like family. I could tell my pup was happy, well-loved, and got plenty of exercise while in his care. It's such a relief to know my dog is in such great hands. Highly recommend Sebastian to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive sitter!”
Kennedy R.
“Kennedy has boundless capacity & passion when it comes to caring for, standing up for and empathizing with the needs of all animals. She’s the first to sign up for fostering & volunteering when an animal or the community is in need. I haven’t met someone so giving, loving & righteous, and I feel as though there’s no one better to care for your sweet animal than her. On top of the trustworthiness & care, she’s also very fun and very active (she’s a professional runner). Thus, the entertaining and exercising of your pet are unmatched perks.”
Patricia H.
“Tricia has an incredible understanding of feline behavior, and a genuine passion for animals. She knows that each pet has a unique personality and preferences. The most important thing for any pet owner is knowing that their pet is cared for and safe. I wholeheartedly recommend Tricia as a sitter to anyone in need of a reliable and caring person to look after their furry family members.”
