About: Please only Tacoma inquiries. I live in Stadium and drive a jeep so far distances are not ideal. :) I have had dogs in my life since I was born. I have volunteered with the humane society for years and also foster for local rescues. I love dogs and I want many but while I am finishing my masters and substitute teaching I feel this is the best thing for me! I have dog sat puppies, seniors, all types of breeds, and spoiled grumpy dogs! I am not from Washington so I have no family for the holidays and would love to fill my house with another dog or two! I currently substitute teach so I have a flexible schedule, all the holidays off and I have no plans on going anywhere! If it is during non holiday times, I leave my apt at around 730 and come home around 430. I live in a fourplex and go on lots of walks, long walks, and walks to the park that is close by! Lots of walks!
“I'm very pleased with Ellyanna's care so far; she's patient with my VERY shy cat and respectful of his space. Great communication, and I come home to a well taken-care of cat -- you can't ask fore more. Highly recommended!”
“Quinn is reliable, communicative, and attentive. I can tell how excited my cat is to see her by the photos that she sends and, while I hate to leave my cat, I'm excited to rebook with Quinn when I have to be away again”
“Kristen was fantastic. Our often initially shy cat bonded with her right away. She sent lots of updates with pictures. Our house was totally clean. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely use her again.”
“Adam was great with our cats! He took great care of them and was very patient with our cat who tends to hide under the bed around strangers. He also sent lots of wonderful pictures. Highly recommended.”
