Dog Sitting in Suquamish

About: I love all animals! I have previously owned and trained a Belgian Malinois rescue and a lab/pit rescue. Both wonderful dogs. I am a navy vet, dog owner and dog lover. I use positive reinforcement training methods, and I know how to read the body languages of animals. I am respectful, neat, and I'll make sure you pet is well taken care of! I offer dog sitting, and occasional boarding services. You can rest easy with the knowledge that if you hire me, they will be my number one priority. I will communicate at least once a day, and more if requested. I live in an apartment and WFH full time, so I'll be able to provide ample attention to your dog! Not that they might need it because my puppy Orion will be begging them to play nonstop! I monitor play time continuously to make sure they get along well. Sometimes if a client's dog DOESN'T want to play I make sure Orion leaves them alone. He'll just be whining on the couch. No matter the size of your dog, I'll make sure they are safe and comfortable. Orion has had experience playing with 100lb German shepherds and snauzers to mini pinchers. He loves all dogs that will play with him.

“Elana was kind, professional and organized. She was on time and our animals all seemed to love her. It was awesome to know we left our furry friends in good hands. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future pet care needs.”

“Jeremy has been an amazing dog sitter for my drop-in visits! He’s always great at communicating and consistently keeps me updated with pictures, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. My dog can be a bit wary of new people, but Jeremy was incredibly patient and took the time to build trus which I really appreciate. It’s clear he genuinely cares about animals, and I feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands with him. Highly recommend!”

“Our cats are very happy with Sha. Figaro our older cat needed meds given to him daily. Sha was able to give him his meds with no problems. Our other cats enjoy brushing from Sha. Our youngest newest cat Stormy is warming up to her. All of our cats were feral when we took them in.”

“Alexandra is great with my pets they are both shy and a bit timid and they always seem to be happy if she is watching them. She always communicated if she would be delayed or anything was wrong. I would highly recommend hiring her to watch your pets”

About: I've been around animals most of my life and have spent lots of time taking care of them whether they be my own, friends, or relatives Just finished my first year at college and currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time available to help out however I can. If they are low energy I usually stay inside with them, take them out when needed, make sure they have water, fed at the right time, etc. If they're high energy then I take them for a walk, play in a fenced yard, nearby dog park, or if there is a good place inside the house to do so then maybe there as well. It all comes down to what the pets need at what time.

About: With over 15 years of active pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for animals, I bring compassion, playful attentiveness, and calm confidence to every home I visit. In 2024, I spent four months road-tripping across the U.S., housesitting along the way and caring for 7 cats and 14 dogs in 10 households—ranging widely in breed, age, temperament, and needs. This experience left me especially comfortable quickly building trusting relationships with new animals and adapting to their individual personalities. I have extensive experience with medically complex pets, including administering pills and liquid medications, giving injections, and providing wound care. I understand the importance of consistent routines, detailed observation, and gentle handling when working with animals who require special attention. Whether caring for playful puppies, senior cats, or anything in between, I offer dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work four days a week, Thurs-Sun in the afternoon and evening. On work days, I am available in the morning and late-evening. Mon-Wed I have full availability for all types of care. I prioritize safety and active stimulation for my own pets and those I care for. In addition to maintaining feeding schedules and security, I make sure those animals in my care receive exercise and mental stimulation, depending on their needs.

About: I usually introduce myself as Bailey – Irish Cream, Bailey – every yellow lab I’ve ever met, or Bailey – from WKRP in Cincinnati. And yes, it’s my real name, guess I was destined to be a dog lover! I grew up in the beautiful PNW with my grandparents, where we raised dachshunds and had a few beloved springer spaniels. One of my favorite photos ever is from my senior pictures—featuring Miss Margaret May, our sweet spaniel. Check it out in my photo gallery! My first dachshund, Corky, came into my life when I was 13, and he’s still with me today. He’s my heart dog—wherever I went, he went too. I promise to show your dog (or cat!) the same love, patience, and loyalty I’ve always given my own. These days, I’m a proud fur mama to: Corky – 16, Doxie, my heart dog Isabeau – 6, rescue Chiweenie and reactive spitfire Lillian – 6, rescue Tabby mix with an old lady soul Jinx – 8, gentle giant Bombay Nico the Freako – 4, rescue Blue Tabby mix and certified chaos goblin I have hands-on dog sitting experience with primarily small to large breeds, as well as cats. I’m confident handling oral medications, senior care, shy pets, and animals with big personalities. Whether it’s puppy zoomies or slow senior strolls, I meet each pet where they are and make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I currently work at a school on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, from 7:30a.m.-2:00p.m and I am off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Which means plenty of time for early morning drop in's, dinner dates, and scheduled evening playtime, snuggles, and walks. Wednesdays I am not available. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your space like I’m an honored guest. I respect your routines, your belongings, and your pet’s comfort above all. To keep you connected and reassured, I’m happy to leave detailed notes about what we did during our visit—and send photo updates if you’d like. My goal is to make sure your fur babies receive the loving attention and quality care you not only pay for, but truly expect.

“Alexandra did an incredible job of taking care of our pups while we were away. She sent great pictures and was always timely! We would absolutely use her again.”

“Acadia was great! When our usual walker fell through she was flexible with our needs. She communicates well and was great on sending photos. Our rescue is weary of meeting new people and she handled him so well. Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I am an animal lover who is happy to love on your pets while you're away. I grew up with cats, and have kept both cats and dogs in my adult life. Trustworthy and responsible with a pet friendly home and property. I work part time from home so I have good availability to cater to a pet's needs. Ask my goldendoodle Clementine. She is a well pampered pooch. I have a fenced backyard that is about 1/3 of an acre, great for roaming, sniffing, and fetch. Just let me know what is needed to best care for your pet and I'll follow your instructions to a T!

About: Hello and thank you for considering me! I am foremost focused on your pets safety and comfort! I have experience with quirky dogs, leash pullers, and the "I'm laying down and not moving technique". In addition to pet sitting for friends and familu, I've always had a critter crew of my own including birds, cats, dogs and reptiles: Currently I have 2 goofball dogs and a 38+ YO Turtle. I have experience with puppies all the way to seniors and am comfortable and experienced administering medication. I am also in the process of obtaining my canine massage therapy certification. I'm flexible to accommodate your schedule daily within the hours of 8am to 5pm. I am a Chinese Medicine Practitioner and have a varying schedule. I look forward to having you show me your dogs likes, loves and dislikes when it comes to favorite toys, how they like to be pet, and cookies! In regards to walks, any advice on what gives them the best, most satisfying walk is welcome.

“Monica is fantastic and did such a great job keeping our dog happy while we were out of town. Glad we found her.”

“Elliot was the reason I was able to feel some peace of mind while I was traveling for a week. She came to my house twice a day to take care of my cats and followed all instructions when it came to how to feed them and take care of their litter. I would definitely hire Elliot again as I know I can trust her in my home and with my babies.”

Jill S.

“Therese was great! She went out of her way to meet us on her time before becoming our sitter, was very communicative, fed and played with the cats, and sent lots of adorable pics documenting it all! We'd would love to have her cat-sit for us again!”

Sara T.

“We hired Elissa to do a last minute drop in visit for our dog Kai and overall she did a great job. She came to the meet and greet on time and it was obvious that she loves dogs and knows a lot about them. She was very responsive via the Rover app, communicative, transparent, and did what we asked during the visit. Thanks, Elissa!”

About: My name is Becky, I'm a masters student studying education (middle school science). I am looking to fill my day up with things that bring me joy. I love being outside and walking, so there is nothing better than walking dogs. Let me care for, play with, and walk your dog while you are busy (please!). I am totally comfortable with old dogs that have special needs, teething puppies, and dogs who don't love other dogs. I have experience with medications, wounds, and injuries for both dogs and cats. I live in Suquamish, with my husband, two kids, two cats and my sweet dog. I have had cats my whole life and dogs for my adult life. I'm just finishing up my school's course work and my kids are in school all day. I have free time on weekdays from late morning to mid-afternoon. Home drop-ins: I will be respectful of your home, and the requests of each individual client. I understand that rules may apply for different animals in a single home. Dog-walking: I tend to run a tight ship while walking dogs. I keep a short leash and have dogs heal for safety and behavior purposes. I will love your dog and provide safe and fun walk

“Devan did a wonderful job taking care of our pup for a drop in visit! He had a fun time playing and we felt great knowing he was well cared for. Devan sent cute pictures of him and gave us a great update on the visit after.”
