“Kristina was amazing with Nalo. We set up a meet and greet last week and she interacted with Nalo, gave him treats, and was even training him in that short time. He had his first day of doggie daycare yesterday and Kristina sent me video and pictures of Nalo throughout the day. Nalo is only 5 months but we are leaving for 3 days in a few weeks and were looking for someone we can trust to watch Nalo for 3 days. Nalo made friends, went on walks, and was pooped by the time he came home 😂 Thanks Kristina! So glad we found you!”


“10/10 recommend Karmin. Super flexible with drop off pick up, communicative, and send me plenty of updates on my dog. She is the nicest person and you’ll be lucky if she is able to watch your pet!”


“McKenzie is amazing! I left my boy with her the whole day and he was very well taken care of. Her yard is super large and my dog loved playing with her dog Nugget. Would most definitely book with her again, 11/10 :)”


“Jeannine is absolutely the best! She is super kind, communicative, and really cares about dogs! Amani is always excited to arrive at her home and is tired when she gets home! Jeannine is a wonderful example of the kind of sitter you’d want to watch your fur baby! I love all the photos and videos and her quick responses! And a super bonus is she is an expert with German Shepherds! Truly a gem in Tacoma!!!! I highly recommend her services!!!”


“She was so understanding with my boy Roman. He is house trained but had an accident. Most likely due to anxiety (only had him 10 days + he's a rescue). But she did not make a big fuss about it and took him on plenty of walks.”


“Ellie *loves* going to see Timothy! She gets super excited and happy as soon as she gets close to the house. She gets along so well with the boys (his dogs), and comes home happy and exhausted! I recommend Timothy wholeheartedly. Exceptional sitter!”


About: I have always had pets in my home as a child and as an adult. I believe in fresh air for the dogs and treats for good behavior, if owner I do ask that your pet have a crate to sleep in at night. Please bring something from home for their comfort as well. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that would accommodate many options for pet owners. I have a pug mix dog named Fonzy and he loves making new dog friends. I take care of pets in my own home. I will feed and clean pets. Walking and playing is a part of my daily routine with my own dog, Fonzy.

About: I grew up with German Sheppards from the time I was born until 20, when I adopted my apartment sized dogs - 2 silky terriers. I'm extremely comfortable around all doggos of any size! My husband works from home and we are home most weekends during the school year. We have plenty of time for cuddles, walks, exercise in the back yard, and bathroom breaks. I have a fenced yard with easy access, and two small dogs to keep your pet company. I can crate train if needed and will make accommodations if able.

“Kirsten scheduled a meet and greet that went well. She responded quickly when contacted and very flexible. Chewie was so happy when I picked him up. It was clear he had enjoyed his stay. We're looking forward to his upcoming extended stay with her.”


About: You can trust that I have the experience to take care of your pets needs! I’ve worked in vet clinics and pet stores so I’m also not just limited to dogs and cats. I’m experienced in hospice care, exotics, puppy training, and so much more! I work from home so I try to be available 24/7. Enrichment, playtime, and walks are always included in my daily routine. Whether it’s a quick 5 min cuddle session or a 30 min walk, I always make sure the give the pets the attention they deserve! Enrichment activities like lick mats and toys are given on a weekly basis. I also have a spare room in case any reactive/quiet pets need their own space. Safety and comfort is my number one priority for all pets!

In the future I plan on working in wildlife rehabilitation so I love working with animals any time I can! I can watch after, check on, and walk your dog(s). Right now I work from home most of the week. I'm very flexible with times so send me a message and we'll figure it out! Hope to see your furry best friends soon!

And if they need some off leash time, my yard could work great!
