“Sara helped me out last minute when I realized I needed support for a long day away. She was communicative and sent pictures while she was there my dog. I am extremely grateful she was available and willing to help and all went very smoothly.”

About: I have loved animals my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience caring for and training dogs. I spent 6 years training and competing in 4-H with my Yorkie, Milly, and we competed at the state level multiple times, which gave me a really strong foundation in dog handling, training, and patience. Beyond that, I have experience dog and house sitting for friends and neighbors, including walking, feeding, bathing, playing with, and caring for their pets. What also sets me apart is that I have now worked with sled dogs for the past two winters, including at Denali National Park. That experience has made me very comfortable handling high-energy dogs, sticking to routines, reading animal behavior, and providing attentive care in all kinds of conditions. I am confident working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, exercised, and well cared for. I currently work an 8-4 in near the university so if you are in town I can let pets out during the day! After and before work I love to be active taking pets on runs and walks in the morning and evenings! I care for pets with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and their individual needs. I always use leashes in public spaces unless otherwise directed, and I stay very aware of other dogs, cars, people, and anything else that could become a hazard. I keep a calm, attentive demeanor around animals and try to make them feel secure and comfortable. In a client’s home, I would be respectful of their routines, rules, and space, and I am happy to adjust walks, playtime, and care based on each pet’s age, energy level, and personality.

“We highly recommend Katelyn for taking care of your pet. She is extremely reliable, was in constant communication via text, and provided photos of our cat during every visit to the house. We felt very confident leaving our cat in her care. To sum it up, she was awesome and we'd have her watch our cat again!”

“The cats were fed and he even got them to play. My dishwasher was out waiting for the repairman but he washed their dishes by hand and everything was clean when I got home. A short visit but still surprised me how well he took care of things. Thanks Ezra.”

“Carmen is a professional and you can expect great care for your pets. She’s calm and handles each situation with grave and care, for the pets and for you as a pet owner. Highly recommended!”

About: Grew up with dogs, always gravitate to them. Volunteered at a rescue shelter for years. Recently landed on Whidbey Island and looking to help out the local pups in need of some care! Very flexible schedule. Moved to Whidbey Island without many commitments to start so I have plenty of time to commit to walks and doggo care. Each dog and owner have different histories, tendencies and needs. It’s important to build trust and rapport with a dog in order to best serve a dog while the owner is away. It’s a responsibility to take seriously!

“Emma is the best! So reliable and takes excellent care of our doggy and along with walking she plays ball with him! And sends great pictures too!”

Sharon C.

“Seriously AMAZING service! We were on vacation and got stuck on an island for longer than expected, and April came in and saved the day!! She was sweet to our pups and I am forever grateful.”

About: I’ve always dabbled in pet sitting for the fun of traveling and meeting new breeds. Now that I’m semi - retired, I've discovered a new joy in providing care without the pressure of outside responsibilities. Having nowhere else to be means I can spend hours with your pets, letting them set the pace on our walks, and offering endless cuddles, allowing me to form trusted connections with every animal I watch. It is not that pet care fits into my life as much as pet care IS my life. It is breakfast, walk or read (depending on the species), groom, pet, games, naps, then dinner and repeat until bedtime. In follow the outline provided by the pet parent to work through the pet’s familiar daily routine. For dogs, I emphasize exercise and with cats, I emphasize stillness. For both, we find a compromise 😂

About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life! I have experience working at a doggy daycare where I cared for dogs of all different sizes, energy levels, temperaments, and special care needs. Since then, I’ve regularly cared for pets for friends, family, and military coworkers. I am comfortable working with puppies, senior dogs, high energy breeds, and dogs that need a little extra patience. I have experience administering medications, following feeding schedules, and making sure every dogs gets plenty of exercise and attention. I also have experience looking after cats, hamsters, gerbils, and rats. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am currently a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule and plenty of free time! Your fur baby will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks! I can stick to your dogs normal routine and of course provide updates and photos throughout their stay. Whether your pet is energetic or prefers a more relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Nothing is more important to me than your pets safety and happiness. I have a fully fenced in backyard for safe playtime, and two friendly, well socialized dogs who love making new friends! I always supervise introductions, closely monitor playtime, and can separate pets if needed to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I’ll follow your pets feeding schedule, and medication instructions, and of course any special care instructions to ensure they feel right at home! I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family!

“Jaimie took wonderful care of our senior kitty over the holiday. We came home to a very relaxed kitty and it just gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in caring hands. ❤️”

I have a heart for all dogs and am excited at the opportunity to help out in the community and provide a home for your dog when needed! I have personally experienced the need to have last minute pet care and know first hand how hard it is to find someone you trust to watch your fur-baby. I have a flexible schedule, a nice comfortable home, and a family who loves animals. I'm able to take your dog on walks around the neighborhood, play fetch, provide the care that you want, and give lots of love and pets when wanted. I'm currently working full time, with work from home benefits and a flexible schedule! I am able to take your dog outside whenever they need.

About: I grew up in a household full of cats, dogs, birds, reptiles and fish. My first pet as a wee one was a Tarantula name Suzie. Since moving to Whidbey Island 11 years ago I have worked professionally to care for animals on a number of levels from Dog Runner to Veterinarian Technician. Though I don't have any fur-babies currently, my husband and I heartbreakingly lost our two beloved fur-kids to cancer since moving here - a Husky mix and a Pitbull mix, I still find joy in caring for others' pets. From cuddles & cookies (if diet allows) to exercise & basic training (if warranted and wanted) I am here for you and your beloved pet. I can also administer medications if needed. I am primarily offering dog walking and drops-ins at this time. I am open to discuss any house sitting needs, if my schedule is open to accommodate them. I know pets are more comfortable being in their own home with familiar surroundings, sights and smells. I am respectful and mindful of your property and will treat your home as I would my own when providing drop-in visits, walks with your dog(s), as well as over night stays with your pet(s) in your home. When on walks I will provide as much energy as your dog needs, slow leisurely walk around the neighborhood or a run around the block. If you are near a hiking trail I would be happy to provide a hike with your dog(s) if that is ok with you. More details to be discussed at meet and greet or before service is provided.

About: I have been dog walking for friends and families for about 10 years now with a variety of dogs! My experience with different breeds of dogs has shown me that all dogs have different needs to be met. My own dogs has taught me to always be aware of everything and to always be there for them. I enjoy being able to connect with animals and will make your dog my first priority! I will be wearing a mask when dog walking or sitting and will be following the CDC guidelines for COVID-19I am a student at Seattle University and all classes are online so I am free whenever you need a sitter or a walker :) Please let me know if you have any questions. Any time, currently I am unemployed and am taking classes online, so as long as I get a heads up I will be able to do whatever you need! I have a fenced place in a family and pet friendly neighborhood. I will figure out what else can be dog-proofed and to make sure that they is nothing they can get into.

“Brandi was just such an awesome blessing during our trip to western MA! I did write a review at the time (May, 2019), but the internet access was shaky and obviously it didn't go through, but she earned our highest possible recommendation. She was highly professional and intuitive with our very private Irish Wolfhound puppy, Aoife. Aoife had a great time. She didn't seem to notice we were gone until we returned, which was just awesome, as we felt very guilty when we left her in a strange place. I would trust Brandi with any living creature. I know she will be moving on to a rewarding career, but if she's still sitting/walking the next time we're in that area, we will definitely try to book her again!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities! Always reliable, communicative, and happy to send photo updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals! I am available for walks and sitting on weekdays and some weekends. I'll ensure that your pets feel safe in whatever environment I am interacting with them in! Happy to play fetch or run with your dog or just sit in the same room as your cat!

“Ella was wonderful! Cinnamon liked her. She was very friendly, communicated well, and followed instructions. I definitely recommend her and want to keep using her going forward! She’s the perfect fit for us!”

About: I may be newer to professional pet sitting, but I bring a full year of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’m patient with puppies as they learn, gentle with seniors who need a slower pace, and comfortable giving oral medications when needed. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood — and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my week — I set aside time every day for walks, play, and check-ins with the pets I look after. I plan my schedule around their needs so I can give them steady attention, whether it’s a morning potty break, an afternoon walk, or evening cuddles. Keeping them safe, happy, and loved is something I enjoy building into my routine I make every effort to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable. In my home: I create a calm space where pets can relax, play, and stick to their usual routine. I provide regular walks or yard time, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of cuddles or playtime based on their personality. I keep an eye on them at all times and make sure they have a cozy spot to rest.

About: My name is Nikki. I am 29 and blessed run this business with my husband Gabriel (pictured in our profile picture). As I am home full-time, we are able to give around the clock attention to the animals we care for! Your pet will get all the loves, just like at home. We are open to all preferences and follow care instructions thoroughly. In my free time, when I'm not caring for pets, I enjoy cooking, traveling, hiking, the outdoors and playing music. I have had animals my entire life. From chinchillas to puppies, I have loved and cared for many breeds types and temperaments. We pride ourselves on our ability to handle all animals and am confident that my experiences will make a stay with us smooth for both pet and owner! I am a stay at home dog mom! I have wide open availability. We provide dog walks, overnights, drop-ins, and all other services. We're available to do any length of time bookings as well! And are constantly available to meet your animals needs! We have a beautiful neighborhood that offers plenty of enjoyment and room to roam! We also have a neighborhood fully fenced dog park 5 minutes walking distance from our home. We are very outdoorsy as well and enjoy long dog walks to our local beach and park.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. Over the past three years, I've helped raise and care for three family dogs, including puppies, and I've regularly looked after dogs for family members and friends. Those experiences have taught me how to care for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether a dog enjoys long walks, lots of playtime, or simply taking things at a slower pace, I'm patient, dependable, and happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. While I'm new to Rover, I'm committed to providing every dog with the same care, attention, and respect I'd give my own. I currently work part-time, so I have the most availability Monday through Thursday, occasionally Fridays and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and many evening walks. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and appreciate booking in advance whenever possible. Once your walk is scheduled, you can count on me to arrive on time, communicate clearly, and give your dog the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. If my availability ever changes, I'll let you know as soon as possible. I treat every dog as if they were my own because I understand the trust that comes with caring for someone's pet. Safety is always my top priority, and I carefully follow each owner's instructions and routine. I'm patient with shy dogs, energetic with playful dogs, and always adapt to each dog's personality and comfort level. I'll communicate throughout the visit with updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for.
