They treated him like he belonged to them. Very attentive & loving. Spacious home and yard. Pics and videos were sent. Definitely recommend checking them out.”
About: I have taken care of lot's of animals my whole entire life both dog and cat pet sitting for years. All of my friends, family and patients have relied on me to take care of their Pets for short and long periods. I am home during the day and especially at night -so it is Very easy for me to include them in my daily schedule. I am available most weekends and holidays. I have a front and backyard -the back has a linai and a pool but it is enclosed. I have access to multiple fields nearby to my house. I allow dogs to swim in the pool with the owner's permission. My house flooring has no carpet so messes are easy to clean up. Requirement: For the safety of our future dogs we will be sitting,we require proof of up to date vaccinations and flea/tick treatment. A copy or picture of your pets most recent veterinarian visit summary will be fine.
About: When our sweet dog of 14 years passed away Nov 2017 I started volunteering as a dog walker at Homeward Pet in Woodinville where I received rigorous dog walking training. While working there I enjoyed the interaction with many different types and temperaments of dogs. A true blessing being able to give them love, protection, reassurance and fun when they most needed it. I've always loved animals my entire life and would very much enjoy taking care of your precious baby. Looking forward to seeing your dogs smiling face I'm retired and have extra time to spend having fun with new pets and helping neighbors with thier babies. Plus I live right here in Harbor Hills. Visiting your fur baby in your home, using all leashes, harnesses and collers provided by family. All babies will need to be secured in golf cart.
“Melissa was excellent and Sam and Bailey really took to Melissa. We were kept in constant communication and she made their visit personable. They were relaxed and felt like they were home. We appreciate the way she cared for our fur babies. We will definitely use Mellisa any time we are out of town. She cared for Sam and Bailey as we would.”
“This was our first stay with Charles and everything went very well! He was a great communicator with sending updates and asking questions in order to make our pup’s stay go as smoothe as possible and ease any concerns I had. We will definitely book again!”
“Couldn't ask for a more caring, dependable, and loving dog sitter. Shayla went beyond what you would expect from taking good care of Reggie to sending daily photos. Great fenced-in backyard for the dogs in her care to play. Would book with Shayla in the future without hesitation.”
“June was so nice, easy to work and communicate with, and most important of all she took great care of Sadie. She sent updates and pictures frequently. I’ll definitely have her sit for Sadie in the future if she’s available.”
“We are retired so we travel a lot. We have never boarded our dogs with a more competent dog sitter. Our dogs actually leep out of the car to get to her when we drive in the driveway. Our dogs are English Bulldog Champions and one is intact, but Peggy manages his care profesionally--even on Thanksgiving day. As a vet technician she was also able to administer medication to our older dog. She lives on a farm so there is a lot of area for dogs to run off leash. They don't sleep in a kennel building, they sleep in her house! She is a lovely person with a good heart.”
“My son dropped off our dog, but said that Rebecca was very pleasant and the transition of leaving our dog with her went smoothly. I received pictures of our girl every day, and Rebecca reassured us that she was doing great. Our dog seemed to enjoy her visit with Rebecca :)”
“Alexus and her family provided wonderful care for our precious puppy. Their home is clean and welcoming and she provided continuous updates throughout our dog’s stay. We would gladly go back there when the need arises and recommend her highly. Thanks Alexus”
“Adrienne has watched Buster and Franky several times and it has been a great experience each time! They love being with Adrienne and Steve and feel right at home. They are treated as part of the family.”
“Was an overall great experience.Mrs Janell was amazing and took great care of our pup.no issues and had great communication.also helped out as I was new to the site and how to book her.”

Never thought we would find such a fabulous sitter for our little Rudy until we found Melissa. Rudy loves staying at her home and just struts right in making himself at home! Melissa constantly stayed in touch while we were away with pictures and updates. So happy to have found her!
Geri Gerstner is a phenomenal dog sitter. She treats and cares for pets in her care in a very loving and personal way. She fully understands that pet owners worry whenever they leave their pets in her care, custody, and control. Geri will always strive to make your pets comfortable and always do everything in her power to make pet owners comfortable and worry free when sitting with their pets. Our rating is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
