“I couldn't ask for a more thoughtful sitter to care for my two cats! Nazli maintained great communication during their visits and made sure both feline friends were happy in my absence. I would definitely book again.”

“Hailey was great! Clear and easy to communicate with, accommodating and reliable, and best of all she got my very shy cat to come around. Definitely felt peace of mind with her looking after my cats”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school when I started dog sitting for my coaches, teachers, and families I babysat for. I have 2 family dogs that I miss so much back in NY with my parents. I’m currently working part time as a nurse so my schedule is pretty open. I’m just looking to fill in my off days and evenings with pet care and maybe even some long weekends with dog sitting. I am renting so would not be able to keep dogs in my own home but I am flexible with caring for dogs in your home.
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors cats when she goes on vacation- I volunteer consistently at Regional Animal Services of King County, I also have been involved in animal rescue for about 16 years now. I volunteer for Feral Cat Assistance and Trapping and South County Cats. I also foster animals from the animal shelter. I also have my own animals who are well loved and cared for! 😊 I have open availability at this time as my schedule is not a set schedule with my rescue work. I am happy to set my schedule according to the client’s needs. I usually will care for client’s animals in their home since I have cats of my own. But I do have an area for my fosters in my home. I’ll usually go over to a clients home to check on the animals and tend to them and come back as often as needed depending on what the client asks for.
About: I have experience caring for friends' dogs, as well my previous Retriever mix Lucky. I had her for 13 years from her energetic puppy years to a senior who needed a lot of attention and medication. My home is missing a set of paws walking around it now and I have a very flexible schedule until I leave for a new job in August. I look forward to getting in touch! I am currently in between jobs and have plenty of free time for your pups! In a typical week I will only leave the house for a few hours at a time for a couple reoccurring appointments on Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday. My home has a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around and play. There is a lot of open space in my home and air conditioning to keep everyone cool. I enjoy varying levels of activity from going on runs or walks, to chilling on the couch.
“Brooke was fantastic! She is patient, thoughtful / thorough, and communicative - My kitties can be needy, and it was a relief to know that they were in great hands with someone who is so attentive and great with cats!”

“Savonne was a fantastic sitter for my dog. She followed instructions perfectly. She was very communicative, and also easy going. My Haru was a very happy girl when I came back to her. I would request again!”

About: I’ve been fostering cats of all ages and personalities for 1 year! I have experience with potty training, oral medication and topical applications. I am a psych student and take pride in my ability to read each cat and listen to their needs :) I’m currently a college student. I am at home most evenings, and can spend time with your cat! I have the entire day available Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I have a large individual room to my own, a cat tree, window planes that is a favourite for cats to watch birds on two sides, multiple litter boxes, hide-able nests and beds. WINDOWS ARE SEALED.
About: I've had family pets since I was a child and gravitate towards dogs as an adult. I learned a lot about dog training as a puppy raiser for a service dog organization, in this role I fostered and trained a service puppy for a year! I love being in the outdoors and will often take dogs out on hikes or mountain bike rides. I work full-time, but only in the evenings and occasional weekends. My partner works a normal 9-5 so generally a dog would not be alone longer than 4-5 hours. We have a small/medium sized fenced-in backyard for play and potty breaks. I understand it can be anxiety inducing to leave your pup with a stranger, so I will communicate with daily updates/photos/videos to let you know how it's going. When pups are left alone I want them to be safe, especially being in a new space, so I will use a crate if that's something they are used to. I am fine with other arrangements too if you feel it is safe to do so.

About: Growing up in Alaska, I was surrounded by a pack of 12+ dogs, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals from an early age. I helped feed, clean, supervise, and create safe, enriching environments for each of them. As an adult, I’ve expanded that same level of care and attention to cats as well, including experience supporting senior pets and providing gentle hospice and end-of-life care for both dogs and cats. I deeply value the comfort, dignity, and quality of life of every animal I care for. It would be an honor to help care for your beloved four-legged family member with patience, compassion, and attentiveness. With a flexible weekly schedule supported by my household situation, I’m able to devote consistent time and attention to pet care, ensuring reliable visits and attentive, compassionate care for your pets. I offer loving, reliable care in both my home and my clients’ homes, always working to keep pets comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I adapt to each animal’s personality and needs to ensure they feel secure and well cared for in any environment.
About: I’ve been caring for my own two cats for over 4 years, so I understand how important it is to keep pets on their routine and make them feel safe and comfortable. I’m very patient, attentive, and gentle, especially with cats and their different personalities. I focus on being reliable and communicative so owners feel at ease while they’re away, and I always make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. I currently work afternoons from 2–10 pm, so I’m available for drop-in visits in the mornings and early afternoons, typically from 5 am to 1 pm. This allows me to provide consistent, reliable care and stay flexible for your pet’s routine. I have two cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with their daily care and behavior. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and not bored by giving them attention, playtime, and sticking to their normal routines. I also closely monitor their food, water, and overall well-being during each visit.
“Mary is the best!!! She’s extremely conscientious about caring for our cats and birds. I’ve hired her many times now and never worry about our house and pets when we’re away.”


About: As well as being well cared for, your dog will be engaged in an array of activities. I enjoy hiking and would love to take your dog on a jaunt through the woods. I have also had experience in dog training and have had success in teaching my last dog some useful/entertaining tricks. I provide a safe environment. There are multiple recreational parks nearby as well as a large soccer field for outdoor activities. I offer flexible hours and will be willing to work around your schedule. I am capable of handling large breeds. I offer more than sitter for your dog. I would care for your dog as if it was my own. Thank you for reading this and I look forward to meeting your dog. I am a merchant mariner. A sailor. And when I'm off the boat, I AM off the boat and on my own time and schedule. I have a fully fenced yard. No other pets to contend with and a very safe neigbborhood with neighbors who look out for one another.
About: I love learning about how to take of all kinds of animals and needs. I have pet sat puppies and senior dogs. I have also pet sat three cats at the same time. I work part time, but I’m only available during the week. Not weekends. During the week, it depends on which days I’m free/ what time. Schedule is somewhat flexible. I have a fenced yard and one senior dog and a cat. Doors are shut to make sure they stay safe/ so we know where they are.

About: I’m a gentle and active pet lover with lifelong experience caring for animals. I currently have a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd and have grown up with pets, including cats, a Doberman, and another Aussie, so I’m comfortable with many breeds and personalities. I love staying active with dogs and understand how important both physical exercise and mental stimulation are. I enjoy walks, playtime, and enrichment activities that keep dogs happy, balanced, and well-behaved. I’ve also cared for cats and understand their unique needs and routines. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and engaged while their owners are away. Weekdays I am available early mornings to afternoon until 4 pm. Weekends: depending, case by case basis. Sundays after 12 pm. Please write in advance. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow their routine closely, ensure they are always supervised, and adjust care based on their needs. I provide a calm, positive environment and keep your home clean and respected while caring for your pet. I also make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation through safe, engaging activities.
About: Your dog is SAFE, I am RESPONSIBLE and your dog is FAMILY, to me!!! I am physically fit, full of humor and just waiting for a dog or dogs to care for. I have a cat but he is not interested in outside adventures as he just sleeps, lol I am semi retired so I am flexible. When I'm not at the gym, I walk different dogs at my condo's, just for fun--honestly! I can provide references as well. Your dog is my "child", while in my care. I take this job/responsibly very seriously, which you will soon find out! We will play, run, and walk and quickly develop a love for each other!!
About: I have been taking care of and living with dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets for many years. I believe every animal has a right to a caring and healthy environment where they can thrive and live their best life no matter what age, size or special needs they may have. I have taken puppy training course and will be happy to help teach your puppy manners. Also, I have experience giving senior pets medications and special care in their older years. I can administer first aid in every minor or major situation as needed. I work full time as an accountant but Thursday and Fridays work from home and I am available to care for your fur-baby those days through the weekend. I am very hands on and will show your pet a great deal of physical and emotional love. I have a fully fenced and large back yard for running around, with two friendly pups of my own to play with your baby. I have experience crating dogs and cats as well as letting house broken pets discover and roam around my pet safe home.
Tukwila dog parents share their Rover experiences
Brendan went above and beyond for our pup and left detailed summaries and lots of photos after each visit. It was our first time having our dog watched by someone we didn’t know personally so naturally we were nervous, but Brendan’s care and clear connection with animals really put us at ease. We can’t recommend him highly enough!

McKenzie has been watching our pets for almost a year now, and she is the best! She continues to go above and beyond for our animals and truly does care. We’ve had many times where last minute visits are needed and she is great at accommodating. Thank you as always, McKenzie!

Fei was absolutely amazing. She was super flexible, incredibly friendly, and truly wonderful with our pups. From the moment she met them, it was clear she genuinely cares and knows how to make dogs feel comfortable, happy, and loved (even my grumpy old dog, Chance). Honestly… I almost don’t want to recommend her to anyone else because my dogs want her all to themselves 😅🐶 But if you’re lucky enough to book her, you’ll quickly see why we trust her completely. Couldn’t recommend her more.

Gabriela is awesome and I will absolutely work with her again the next time I need someone to watch my dog. She was truly amazing with my sensitive, older pup who needs regular medicine. My dog is often slow to trust others, but they had an immediate connection from their first meeting. I think because they connected quickly my dog was soon playing, snuggling, and eating well right away with her. I'm so grateful by how at ease I felt while I was on vacation, and when I returned everything was in order. Thank you for being so sweet, gentle, attentive to animals, coming through on your word, and being quick to respond! Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Coburn was referred to us by another sitter we’ve used previously; we’re so glad to have been introduced! Coburn did a few days of drop-ins for our cat and dog while we were out of town. He provided wonderful care to them (including eye drops for our blind dog) and they warmed up super quickly to him! We could see from the photos how much they were enjoying hanging out with Coburn. Coburn also treated our home respectfully and was a great communicator (and photographer!) throughout and around our trip. We had peace of mind knowing that he was looking after our pets and home while we were away. We look forward to booking with Coburn again!
