About: We are huge dog lovers and have our own crew of rescue dogs. We have been involved in dog rescue for many years on and off! Noella is a SAHM. So she is generally home unless out on and adventure or running errands/appointments. Niles has Saturday and Sunday off and is home evenings. We have 3 indoor cameras so we can check in while we are work or away for any reason. We own the home and property and have almost 2 acres, with a large portion securely fenced. We pair your dog with our dogs that are appropriate for age, play, and general personality similarities. Little dogs can be separate from large dogs if needed/preferred. Dogs are always supervised- whether indoors or out! We just want to extend our love and passion for dogs to others! Young dogs-seniors are all welcome in all shapes and sizes! Our home is their home! We have a secure indoor kennel and outdoor kennel if needed. Special diets are no problem! We are willing to do anything for your dog that you do! Pictures and updates are always provided! We do require that all dogs be fully vaccinated and on flea/ tick medication.

About: I have a deep well of patience, understanding and affection for your pet. When I am interacting with a dog or cat, they recieve my sole and loving attention. I can't wait to meet yours! I am a retired teacher so I have a lot of management skills and am supremely responsible. I am a retired teacher so I have a ton of time. I am moving from managing teen agers to having loving interactions with pets. I am a single woman in my 50's with no pets of my own, so I am very available to care for your animals. Since I have been back in the USA after teaching overseas for years, I have taken care of and house sat for many people who were pleased with my services. I would love to get to know your animals and make them feel safe and secure while you are gone!

“Becky was so great! Super thoughtful. Great updates. Even gave Aspen a handmade little toy on a day she walked her. Couldn’t say enough positives”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with all different kinds of breeds, sizes, and personalities. Currently my family owns two huskies, a German Shepherd/Border Collie Mix, and a German Shepherd/Pit Mix! Beyond my own pups, I regularly dog sit for six amazing families and truly treat each pet like they’re part of my own pack. I’ve also had the joy of caring for horses, cows, goats, and chickens, so I’m very comfortable around all types of animals and their unique needs. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for! I’m starting a fully online master’s program in social work, which means I’ll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a clients home, my top priority is making sure that your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved in their own space. I follow your care instructions closely and do my best to keep their daily routine consistent to reduce stress. I also respect your home as if it was my own- cleaning up after myself (and your pet!), keeping things tidy and making sure your pets feels at easy while you’re gone. I always send regular updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind.

“Such a kind soul and amazing with animals. My girl is really shy to everyone but always has a blast with Paige. Thank you Paige for all you do and give me such a peace of mind!”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley! Since 2018, I’ve adopted two amazing dogs and one sweet cat, so I know firsthand the love (and quirks!) each pet brings. I treat every furry friend like family—because that’s exactly how they should be treated. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, your pet will get the same care and attention I give my own. I work from home so I have plenty of time (and flexibility) to care for your pets! Just let me know your furry friends unique needs and I’ll happily provide. I like to ensure my pets get at least 20 minutes of activity daily as well as ample walks so that will be true for your furry friend as well!

About: I have had many dogs and cats in my 30 year lifetime. I love my pets and want the best for them, so I understand how others feel about their animals. I have been pet and house sitting professionally for the last 3 years. I always follow owner’s directions exactly, and enjoy brushing, walking and playing with both dogs and cats. Currently my wife and I have a 7 year old cat whom we play with daily, brush and give all love to as well. I take him to the vet for a check up every year in a soft travel cat carrier and update his vaccinations. I would like to pet sit more cats in the future. I’m also a good communicator who updates pet owners and shares pictures if they want them. If I’m staying overnight, I leave the home picked up and clean. I have been learning a lot from my wife who has grown up doing dog, horse and sheep 4-H. She is my go to person for more information, or if puppies, kittens or farm animals are involved. My schedule is very flexible. I’m always able to care for pets throughout mornings, and afternoons. I work a swing shift in the evenings Monday through Thursday from 4pm - 9:00. I am able to take care of pets before and after this block of time. I can stay overnight any evening in the week. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I’m free anytime to care for pets. I give a high level of pet care. I am an active and fit person who will not just “watch” your pet. I will use their toys, play with them, walk the dogs, and even enjoy going on a run or to a park. I brush and bathe dogs when that’s needed too. It just depends on what you the owner prefers. I follow directions exactly and if the animal is old or sick I am happy to administer medication, help them move around the house or go outside and will be careful and mindful of their safety and limitations. I am used to dogs with food allergies and dietary restrictions as well. I do not disturb your stuff or property. I leave things as you left them and even keep things clean.

“Chelsie was absolutely wonderful w my puppy, Archer. She was super friendly, trustworthy, kept well-informed updates, and oh so willing to help out with any messes! I’m sure your pet will love her as much as Archer does!”

About: We come from a multi-pet big-dog family. We have a dog of our own that came from a family litter. She's 4yrs old and is part of a hearing service dog program. Let us know if you're ok with or would like for us to bring our dog with while we hangout with your animal. We've spent professional time tending to animals in animal care settings. IF your animal is under 2yrs old, we'd like documentation of the vaccines they've received thus far so that we can keep us and ours safe. We're prepared & equipped for: - large breed dogs - mixed breed dogs - dog & cat households - social/anti social dogs - sensitive dogs - velcro dogs (dogs that prefer to stay w/ or be around their human pack) - reactionary dogs - all life stages (newborn to elder) - full time outside/inside dogs - working dogs - cats & all their moods Pet care is our daily routine. We work unconventional hours/days. Give us ample notice and we'll be there for your animals like they're our own. What we can offer is what we'd hope for. Someone to take care of our non-human family like we would, someone who's capable, trustworthy, and knows their field. We're naturalists and prefer to be around animals. Fenced yards are everything ! Then again, we've lived in many places where we didn't have that luxury. We're ready for neighborhood walks, dog car rides (seatbelts included), dog parks if that's your ballpark, or ready to roam around your abode just to stimulate your animal. Studying animal behavior has made us pretty good at reading dog cues, especially bathroom and fatigue/needing calm for zzz. We just ask that you're honest about your dogs needs, wants, routine, and capabilities. Care for your animal is same for your home. We'll treat it with kindness as we would our own. We know how an animals home environment can be the most stabilizing thing, especially when their family is away, so we know just how to make ourselves part of your home so your animal can do their thing. Enrichment is one of our passions. Be assured that any down time will be mixed with sensory, olfactory ,or environmental enrichment for your animal should you desire.

“Clair is great! She follows instructions, walked at Mo’s pace, and took care of him like I would. I booked longer because my dog(Mo) is a slow walker. She fed him, made sure his water bowls had fresh water and also gave him just supplements when needed, and treat. Will user her services in the future again!”

About: I've worked with many kinds of animals, from your usual cats and dogs, to less usual like snakes and chickens, to off the rocker usual like a buffalo. I've also babysat many kids over the past 10 years. I've also cared for elderly for almost a year, and I've watched many different animals since I got my first cat. I work part time, so I have a lot of free time for pet care and play. Most of my weeks are free, I'm only not available for one day every four days. I do out of home sitting, so I can take your pet on walks, feed, play with them, or just keep them company and out of trouble. Special instructions are easy for me to follow!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and demeanors since I was a young kid and to this day friends and family rely on me to care for their pets when they’re out of town. There’s little that phases me and I’m good at adapting to a pet’s needs. I’m also good with plants! I work as a newspaper reporter in downtown Centralia and have a flexible schedule, so it’s easy for me to slip out of the office when needed and check in on your pet. My 11-year-old cat and I share a studio apartment with a fenced outdoor “catio” for enrichment. When caring for your pet in your home, I will carefully respect your property and ensure that everything is clean and in place when you return.

About: Animals are our passion, and we’ve built a life around caring for them. With over 20 years of combined experience caring for animals, we’ve looked after dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra love and attention. We also have extensive experience with reptiles, small animals, and pets with medical needs. Our home is full of love (and fur)! Our oldest dog is 13, and our youngest is nearly 1, so we’re familiar with a wide range of behaviors, energy levels, and care requirements. Melissa previously worked as a vet tech in training, so we’re also fully comfortable administering medications and understanding medical instructions. I’m a U.S. Army veteran, and my military background has helped shape me into someone who’s dependable, organized, and calm under pressure. I bring those qualities into every pet sitting job, aiming to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet needs early-morning walks, medication, or just someone to stick to their routine—I’m here to help. We’re currently available any time, any day—including holidays and last-minute bookings. Our schedule is 100% flexible, so we can easily accommodate your pet’s unique routine. Need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays? We’ve got you covered. When caring for pets in your home or on their usual walking routes, safety and trust are always top priorities. We take the time to understand your pet’s environment, routines, and needs—whether it’s a quiet walk through the neighborhood or special instructions for your home while you’re away. We’re respectful of your space and treat your home with care and professionalism. You can count on us to follow your instructions closely, lock up securely, and maintain a clean, safe environment for your pets. During walks, we stick to routes your dog is familiar with (unless instructed otherwise) and always keep them leashed and under control. We’re alert to potential hazards like traffic, other dogs, or wildlife and will adjust as needed to keep your pet safe and calm. Communication is key—we’ll keep you updated and will always reach out if anything seems off or needs attention.

About: I have lived with many different animals my whole life and have taken care of more than just my own. I have cared for friends', previous roommates' and family members' animals. Each one has quickly found me to be like a secondary owner. Of all the animals that I've cared for (birds, cats, dogs, rats, ferrets, and more) i found that I like cats, dogs, and ferrets to be the most fun and rewarding. Though I love all animals! I even make it a habit to feed and play with stray animals. I wish to bring them all home, but my apartment doesn't allow pets. Allow me to care for your pets while you're away and I'll make sure that they are happy and healthy while they await your return home. I'm currently pregnant so I'm taking some time to myself. Meaning I'm free all day every day. I'm more or a night owl, but will care for your animal whenever needed. I am very literal and follow orders to the letter. I will never do anything that you the owner haven't said is OK or not. If I have any questions I will not hesitate to contact you. The person who knows more about their animal is you the owner, so I will look to you for guidance. Want to make sure that each and every animal receives the same treatment that you give!

About: As an AKC conformation and sport handler, I have experience with animals off all shapes, sizes and abilities! My experience extends to special needs, elderly, intact, in heat, puppy/kittens, exotic, large and strong pullers. In my home I have space separate from my animals, a fully fenced side yard and plenty of my own tools, leashes/collars of all sizes and supplies. I am a stay at home mom with no obligations besides Sunday church! You can count on me to have lots of time for your furry friend. I can cater my care to specifically what your pet requires. As an experienced AKC handler I have seen just about every breed and temperament under the sun.
