“Kelsey and her family were great with our young blue heeler, Angus. He can be an anxious guy and selective with certain people, but Kelsey put off the right energy and he quickly warmed up to her. Super grateful to have a place for him to stay where we won’t have to worry about our young son.”



“Kris is so wonderful! I had a very last minute change of plans and she was able to host my pup the next morning. 3 acres of fenced yard is just heaven for dogs and I felt so comfortable leaving my pup there! Their little Rosie and my pup Freyja played so much and I got to take home a veryyyyyy exhausted puppy after a long day of work. I will DEFINITELY be going back.”


“Kat was an amazing sitter for our dog Scout! Both days we picked her up, it was very clear she was sad to be leaving Kat’s place 😆, and we could easily tell she was loved and very well exercised throughout the day.”


“Oh my, he did a good job! I got pictures all the time he took my dog to the river. He had a great walk. Skyler even groomed him and combed his hair out. I am thrilled. He is my new doggy sitter. Thank you Skyler, you were awesome!!! We'll be back!”



“Thank you so much for watching our baby Boo! He was wore out and was sad the next day he didn't have his buddies around. Next time we come to Washington we will book again with Jennifer. She did an amazing job and he loved staying there!”


“Sara was very nice and so accommodating when we had to change our date & again when our ferry was delayed. Our old girl was well taken care of and seemed happy when we picked her up. Thank you Sara!”


About: I adopted my sweet Fox (Chihuahua mix) from the Oregon Humane Society over 10 years ago and he has been my best bud always by my side through all of life’s ups and downs and moves across states! My goal is to provide an environment where I would feel good about dropping my pup off at (they are our children after all!). My condo is small but there is no shortage of fuzzy blankets, pets, and walks! I current work from home, so I’m around most of the day outside of getting out for a run! I often run in the morning, during lunch, or after work but this can be flexible to suit the needs of the animals! I have a very friendly approximately 12 year old chihuahua mix. I live in a small condo but very close to walking areas and a dog park!

“Elaine was quick to respond to a last minute request for daycare need. She was sweet and helpful. Her home was suitable for pets with plenty of room for dogs to play. The yard was large and equipped with water that is available to dogs all day.”


“So much love given to our pup during her daycare stay this last weekend. Thank you Olga and family for taking such good care of our dog for the day! She loved being able to run around in the yard & play fetch. She came home very happy and tired. We would absolutely recommend Olga!”


“Amber is awesome! My baby is so excited to see her and comes home so sleepy. I also absolutely love the cute videos I get throughout the day. She genuinely cares like they’re her own, very appreciative she puts up with my psycho puppy!”


“Katrina was very fast to respond last minute and helped is out while we were road-tripping through the area. She took in my girl for daycare while we we did a whale watching trip. It gave me the peace of mind that she was taken cared of in a home with a nice yard.”

“Karlee was a terrific dog sitter. She welcomed my dog right from the start and made her feel at home. Karlee was very easy to communicate with and work out the logistics. My dog was in good spirits and relaxed when I picked her up after the stay.”


“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Vader! You could tell he loved her. She walked him frequently and gave him lots of love and us lots of pics. Would absolutely highly recommend!!!”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently am a professional dog whelper for several breeders, can administer medications, can watch puppies or Pregnant females as well. Currently work from home so I’m available anytime after 10 am can do earlier just need to be advised in advance and can also watch weekends if planned in advanced. My routine varies depending on how many pups we watch 🙂 We have fenced off an area for our dogs, and will have supervised outside play time. We also have private Trails we can go for hikes.

About: I've owned multiple dogs at a time all my life. As an Airbnb host I offer doggy daycare for guests as well as traveling to people's homes for long-term pet care. The property is 20 acers of free roaming land. We also have a fenced area for less trustworthy pups. Those less trustworthy still get lots of exercise and loving outside the dog yard. Pets can sleep in the house with family dogs or in a crate. I live and work on the property so your pet will have 24 hour care and attention. If for any reason they need to be left alone they are placed with our dogs in the house or the fenced yard. We have 3 dogs (Beagle, Springer and Doodle) that have full run of the place and are very kind and playful. We play fetch everyday and take long walks. If you have a smaller inside pup they will lounge on one of our many dog beds. We have plenty of pet toys.

About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had this special bond with animals. I was always the one neighbors/familt friends would call to walk their dogs, feed their cats, or look after their birds and reptiles. It just came naturally to me, and I loved every minute of it. Those early experiences really sparked my passion for animal care. As I grew older, I wanted to make sure I was the best at what I do, so I took lots of courses in pet health, nutrition, and behavior. I believe every animal is unique and deserves personalized care, so I always try to understand their individual needs and personalities. Because of this, many pet owners trust me with their beloved animals, knowing they’re in good hands. I don’t just stick to the basics either. I’m known for going the extra mile, whether it’s staying up all night with a sick pet, finding the best toys and activities to keep them entertained, or just giving them lots of love and cuddles. My home often becomes a safe haven for animals in need, and I’m committed to making sure every pet I care for lives a happy, healthy life. Taking care of animals isn’t just a job for me; it’s a mission I’m truly passionate about. One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is seeing the transformation in the animals I care for. Whether it’s a rescue dog learning to trust again, a cat recovering from an illness, or a bird that starts to sing joyfully, each success story fuels my dedication. I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of animals, each with its own story and needs, and it’s always a privilege to be part of their journey. Over time, I’ve built a reputation in my community for being reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable. Pet owners know they can count on me not just for basic care, but for a level of attention and love that makes a real difference. It’s not uncommon for me to receive updates and thank-you notes long after I’ve cared for someone’s pet, which always warms my heart and reaffirms why I do what I do. Looking ahead, I’m excited to continue expanding my knowledge and skills in animal care. There’s always something new to learn, and I’m committed to staying at the forefront of best practices in pet health and well-being. My goal is to keep providing top-notch care and to be a trusted resource for pet owners who want the very best for their furry, feathered, or scaly family members. I work as a veterinary assistant at pet emergency center, which means I’m surrounded by animals of all kinds everyday, no matter how challenging the task. I’m fit and ready for any possible emergency that may occur and I have plenty of experience in medication/ health issues. I have an acre for your pet to run freely and lots of toys and furry friends to keep them entertained. They’ll have plenty of space to play and explore, ensuring they stay active and happy. Plus, with other pets around, they’ll never be lonely and will always have a buddy to share their adventures with. Whether it's chasing after a ball, playing tug-of-war, or just running around, your pet will have endless opportunities for fun and exercise. The open space is perfect for them to stretch their legs and enjoy the fresh air, while the variety of toys will keep their minds engaged. And with other friendly pets around, they'll have the chance to socialize and make new friends, which is great for their overall well-being. Your pet will be in a safe, loving environment where they can thrive and enjoy every moment.

About: I will always do my best to make sure your furry friends are at home away from home you can count on me. Your pet is my best friend too be. Monday-Friday I’m available at all times I have a dog and a cat myself Weekends are always there if you need a last minute sitter I don’t have a job right now so your pet will be all focus I have one yellow lab who is great towards other dogs I have a cat who loves dogs I know surprisingly right they will always have food and water in this house they will be given treats if allowed by owner and they will be my family for how every long you need

Kennedy R.
“Kennedy has boundless capacity & passion when it comes to caring for, standing up for and empathizing with the needs of all animals. She’s the first to sign up for fostering & volunteering when an animal or the community is in need.

On top of the trustworthiness & care, she’s also very fun and very active (she’s a professional runner). Thus, the entertaining and exercising of your pet are unmatched perks.”

She was even able to give my dog a bath which, Norah (my dog) does not usually tolerate. Kate is kind but firm with dogs when needed. She has watched my parents elderly dog many time which comes with a lot of procedures to follow, Pills, eye drops, special treat rituals and walks. I would trust her with any animal.”

Follows directions exactly and offers the attention that every pet deserves when their parents are away.”
