About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 10, and have had dogs my whole life. I have experience with elderly animals, and some experience with training and reinforcement of training. I have experience caring for animals with separation anxiety and can follow any special instructions you may have regarding your pet! I am a part-time student taking online classes and have a very flexible schedule. I am generally available at any time of day, any day of the week. I will care for your pet as if they were my own, and will treat your home with the upmost respect. I understand that your home is where your pet feels the most comfortable, so I will do my best not to disturb that environment and ensure both their comfort and safety while you are away.

Yingqi was so awesome with both of my fur babies!! Not only did she board my energetic pup but she also accommodated my older cat with daily drop-ins!! I truly appreciated her time to take care of them both and receive her daily updates. I’m truly grateful 😄

Simon was such an incredible sitter and was so attentive to my cats’ needs. I was getting consistent updates and lots of pictures, just like I asked! I couldn’t have asked for better care for my cats while I was away, and I will absolutely be rebooking.

About: I had a dog for six years when I was younger, the responsibility that comes with taking care of a living creature; feeding, bathing, walking, etc. is something that has become deeply engrained in my person. I have taken care of several dogs in the last few years, (as well as one cat!). They’ve mostly been dogs on the small but I’m still super open to walking a friendly big dog! I am currently on my summer vacation, so I am free most of not all day! Let me know what times you need, (with one day in advance), so I can get started on opening up my schedule. :) In an owners home I would take care for a pet as their directions instruct me to, making sure that the pet is happy and properly taken care of, as well as making sure not to damage anything or cause any disturbances.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember and can’t imagine life without them! I dog sat throughout high school and am looking to continue during my college career. I love all kinds of dogs and really miss mine from home—I’m hoping to get some dog time in while I’m going to school away from home. I’m currently going to school at the University of Washington studying environmental science, so I’ll have plenty of time to hang out with your dogs! I am in a sorority and don’t currently have a job. I am willing and able to follow any instructions for how you want your pet to be cared for. I would love to go for frequent walks and spend lots of time with them so they are happy and have someone to keep them company!

Rachel was an absolutely wonderful sitter! She was incredibly responsible and kept me updated with tons of photos and videos, along with detailed status updates throughout hours. Whether she was walking my dog or spending time with him at home, she always made sure I knew how he was doing. She’s also very attentive to details and extremely patient, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared and took the time to understand my dog’s special needs. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter !!!!!!!

Olena was absolutely wonderful! This was my dog Charlie’s first time staying home alone, and she completely put my mind at ease. She was prompt, reliable, and incredibly responsive throughout every visit. I loved receiving photos and updates, which helped me feel connected and reassured while I was away. Olena made sure Charlie got his walks, plenty of attention, and lots of love during her check-ins. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being and comfort. Knowing he was in such capable and caring hands made all the difference. I would absolutely book with Olena again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Olena, for taking such great care of Charlie! 💕

About: I’m a reliable, responsible pet sitter with 12 years of experience. I’ve had dogs as little as dachshunds to dogs as large as English Mastiffs! I love animals, and am currently a wildlife animal care intern at the Wildlife Care Association! I’m always looking to gain extra experience for my bachelor’s degree in environmental science at University of Washington and would love to help you take care of your amazing pets! I currently do not work, but I am looking for opportunities to! But because of my free schedule it allows me just that much more time to work and play with your pets! My senior dog has her special diets that I help her out with, and I always make sure that she is comfortable and using the bathroom, because it has become harder for her to know when. I have my own leash but because I have a smaller dog you may be more comfortable with providing one.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have spent decades caring for all kinds of pets. I’m both a cat and dog person at heart, and today I’m happily ruled by my Mini Schnauzer, Blue, who rarely lets me out of his sight. Over the years I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Animal care has always been second nature to me, I bring patience, experience, and genuine love to every furry friend I look after. I"m currently taking a break from the 9-5, available to walk your pup or check in on your kitties with great flexibility if I am in town. I have a completely fenced yard if we are doing day care, and companion pup Blue to keep your dog company. Calm mellow house for those anxious pups who like quiet.

About: I've had pets since I was little. I started cat sitting and pet sitting for neighbors once I graduated high school, animals are a big part life! I'm working full time, so I'll be able to work from 8am-9pm Sunday through Saturday for pet sitting and walking! House sitting can be any hours. My home has a grey kitty who's not the biggest fan of other animals, I'll be working outside of it! Whatever is needed, I will happily do in my client's house and neighborhood.

Kimberly has gone above and beyond to care for my cats when I was away for 2 days. She made sure to follow specific dietary restrictions for each of them. She’s organized and detail oriented, always showed up on time and sent detailed notes and a lot of photos. I couldn’t have hoped for a better sitter to look after my cats.

I’ve been a repeat customer of Jen’s for a few years now, and our most recent trip we needed someone to watch our 2 cats for two weeks. The only person we trust enough while we’re gone for that length of time is Jen! It’s hard to be away from your pets for that long, but we feel peace knowing they’re being loved, played with, and cared for. Thank you for everything Jen!!!

It was so enjoyable to meet Elena and Cowboy the sweet retriever. Elena was able to meet Bauer and also to see how Bauer would react to Cowboy which I believe a fav. main stay in Elena’s care. We took our time discussing from A-Z about Bauer. She is very thorough and i like someone who can share with me how she takes good care of dogs in daycare and boarding. She answered all my questions without making me feel rushed. This is my first time boarding my baby and also our first time to be separated. After meeting Elena I felt relieved since i feel that we are on the same page of how she will care for Bauer. I guess the only thing to do now is book Bauer for Boarding.

Meagan was great and I would highly recommend her as a cat sitter! She took care of my cat for 3 days, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again for a short or long visit. Very communicative and responsive, and clearly had my cat’s interests at heart. She provided thoughtful updates and pictures from her visits. She was very easy to talk to and was very easy to work with. Glad to have found someone so reliable so that I can book future trips without worrying about my cat.
