About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and am familiar with many other kinds of animals. I have sat for non-family/friends and well as them included many times before! I have managed taking care of 5+ pets at once, given proper meds, care, playtime, etc. This experience ranges from kittens/puppies just a few days old, to older aged animals. I work “full time” but I work around 30 hours and I have a lot of split shifts so time before or after to check-in with the pets. This looks like morning feed, going outside, if any meds or vitamins need to be taken or same with after depending on the time of day needed. Depending on circumstances of boundaries and rules of each pet, I easily find a solution and adapt if needed. I will watch your dog/cat outside or on a leash front or back of yard. If there are off-limit areas inside our outside those will be closed doors or if there’s a gate it will be put up per clients request. If there needs to be check-ins with owner that be applicable, I am attentive to my phone, when and if necessary.

About: I've taken care of many of my friends pets, dogs and cats when they are away. I absolutely love doing it! Pets are part of the family! I am currently working part time doing instacart so I am on the road and can stop whenever I need to let them out or take them on a walk. I am also starting school this summer so I will be available after classes as well. I usually stay over at my friend's house whenever they are gone to watch their fur babies. So they feel comfortable and safe in there own space.

“Amazing! Communicative, prompt, aware, wonderful pet person…. Thank you”

“Shyanne, agreed to walk Aithusa the night before after another walker canceled due to illness. She sent pictures and route of thier walk and communicated when needing to adjust the time of one of his walks. Aithusa was happy when I returned home from work. I think thier walks helped him not miss his mom, who's away.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up with two family dogs for 18 years, and caring for pets has just always come naturally to me. I also foster dogs, cats, and small critters, so I have experience with pets of all personalities, ages, and needs Pet care fits so naturally into my day because I genuinely love having animals around me. My schedule is super flexible. I’m in part-time school and work part-time so I have plenty of time. When pets are in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I keep a close eye on them at all times making sure they’re safely leashed outside, supervised during playtime, and always comfortable. I follow whatever routines they’re used to, like feeding schedules, crate time, or potty breaks, so they feel calm and at home. There’s always lots of love, attention, and gentle structure to keep them happy and safe. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, respect is everything to me. I treat your space the same way I’d want mine treated clean, careful, and mindful of your rules. Whether I’m staying overnight or just stopping by for a walk, I make sure your pet gets all the care they need while also keeping your home tidy, secure, and exactly how you left it. I’m very routine friendly, so I happily follow your pet’s normal schedule, house rules, and comfort needs.

About: Hi! I’m Jen — a lifelong animal lover with over 4 years of hands-on experience working at an animal shelter, plus many additional months caring for dogs and other animals on a small farm property. If there’s one thing I truly understand, it’s dogs. Especially the shy, anxious, and misunderstood ones. They hold a very special place in my heart! There is no greater feeling than earning the trust of a dog who needs a little extra patience and understanding. At the shelter I worked with every type of dog imaginable, from easygoing family pups to dogs with more complex needs due to past trauma. I was trusted to walk and handle even the more anxious or sensitive dogs, helping them build confidence and learn to trust new people. I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and adjusting my approach so each dog feels safe, respected, and understood. One of the dogs I worked closely with, Donald, needed a trusted handler present while new volunteers learned how to walk him safely, and I helped train others so he could get the exercise and enrichment he deserved. I also helped start enrichment initiatives at the shelter, including treat puzzles, mental stimulation games, and a “dog play buddy” program to give the dogs additional socialization and activity. One of my most special experiences there was helping care for a mama dog who gave birth to a litter of 10 (10!) puppies. I helped care for and socialize those puppies as they grew until they were ready for their forever homes. I also have experience caring for senior animals and understand that older pets often need a little extra patience, gentleness, and attention to their comfort and routine. Beyond dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and bunnies. Over the past few months I’ve helped care for my landlady’s 1yo kitty, and I’m very comfortable providing drop-in care and pet sitting for cats and small animals as well. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting/boarding and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, comfort level, and body language so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: every animal I care for should feel safe, so very loved, and understood. Pet care is my primary focus, so my daily routine is built around providing consistent, hands-on care. I structure my day to include regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, exercise, enrichment, and downtime, depending on each pet’s needs. I’m home for the majority of the day, which allows me to provide a high level of supervision and attention. Pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to support different energy levels, routines, and personalities. Whether a dog needs more activity and engagement or a calm, low-stress environment, I’m able to tailor my day to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I care for every pet based on who they are — not just a one-size-fits-all routine. I pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and comfort cues so pets feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. In my home, dogs stay on a fully fenced 10-acre farm property where they can safely explore, play, and decompress. All outdoor time is supervised, and I’m intentional about creating a balanced environment — active play for dogs who love it, and plenty of quiet downtime for those who don’t. I have a friendly Mini Goldendoodle and a very mellow senior pup in the home, and I take introductions slowly and thoughtfully. I’m always prepared to separate or crate dogs if needed to keep everyone comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to your routines and preferences so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I keep things calm, consistent, and predictable, which is especially important for anxious or sensitive animals. I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities, including dogs who need a little extra patience or structure, and I pride myself on creating an environment where pets can relax and just be themselves.

I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, with a special soft spot for small dogs, seniors, anxious pups, and dogs with medical or mobility needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and have hands-on experience with post-operative care, IVDD/spinal conditions, orthopedic concerns, and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. My home is designed to be safe and low stress. We have a large fully fenced private yard, ramps for preventative safety, play pens and gates if needed, and a relaxed indoor environment for lounging, naps, and low-key play. I’m cage free unless owners prefer otherwise. I’m Pet CPR certified and take safety seriously. All dogs must be fully vaccinated, including Bordetella, and current on flea prevention for the safety of every dog in my care. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and routine so I can make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. I also send frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I’d love to set up a meet and greet and learn more about your pup! I work remotely, so my routine is very flexible which allows me to accommodate your pet’s routine. I will always be around to make sure your pup gets all the love and attention they need! I have a beautiful, private, secure yard with an 8-foot wood fence in a quiet neighborhood! My house is completely dog friendly and pet safe and remodeled to accommodate indoor play and relaxing. I’m cage free, but if you prefer your pet be crated, I have no problem accommodating any requests.

About: Since I could remember we always had animals part of are family from dogs all the way too horses. So I’ve come to love and care for all type of Animals from small to large, young to old.

My schedule is very flexible and I have lots of free time.

I’ll always ask the owner if I’m unsure about something.

About: Just recently, I lost my beloved dog of 16 yrs and I am not ready to become a dog parent again. Since then, I have traveled across the states dog/ house sitting via TrustedHousesitters platform. I have an extensive experience with high energy breeds such as GSPs, setters, springers, vizslas,etc. I am an active person who hike a lot, therefore, possibly looking for dogs who need exercise.

About: I've worked at an animal hospital. I've worked at animal rescues. I love pets all animals. They are what makes life worth living. I take care of animals as if they were my own children.

I have a fully fenced yard in back/front. Enough room for running around and playing. A separate room space indoor huge. Although our pets are friendly I would never have our pets around your dog while staying. They will be separated and taken out in the yard separately. For boarding at your home I would do anything your pet wanted run/walk/play/feed. I just have a baby so I can't stay the night. But I would visit morning and night. If I am able to book your pet I would make sure their needs are met and taken care of first and foremost. I would feed, play, and cuddle. In my home your pet would have a spacious environment. We have a big space for the pet to have their own room and privacy. We have a fully fenced yard for roaming and running. Your pet would be absolutely happy here. If I were to sit at your home I would make sure the pet is comfortable. I would obviously feed them to your preferences. I would take them in the back yard or walk. Overall I would make it feel like the owner never left as much as I could

About: What sets me apart is 10 years of hands on animal care driven by a deep love for animals. I am not just a sitter, I am someone who truly loves being with them. I have experience training energetic puppies with patience and positive reinforcement and providing gentle, attentive care for seniors who need slower walks, joint support and medication if required. I believe great care is in the details, so I make sure every animal is fed on schedule, always has fresh water, gets plenty of exercise and has real playtime and affection. You will get updates, photos and peace of mind knowing your best friend is safe, happy and loved. Pet care is the center of my daily and weekly routine right now. I currently have an open and flexible schedule and I am dedicating this summer to helping families with reliable dog walks and boarding. That means I am available for early mornings, midday walks, evenings, weekends and last minute needs. On a typical day my routine is built around the dogs in my care with walks, feeding on schedule, fresh water, exercise, playtime and lots of attention. I love animals and i’m looking forward to giving your animals my full focus and care! Nice sized, clean home with hardwood floors, AC/heat, and no other pets or people so your pet gets full 1-on-1 attention. No fenced yard so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash with potty breaks every 2-3 hours plus daily walks. I follow your routine exactly and send lots of photo updates.

About: I grew up in a large family with many pets. We had five dogs and two cats growing up, and I have had my own pets since. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats over the years, though I just moved back to Washington, so I have no pets at the moment. I currently have open availability and am able to provide visits or stay over at clients homes to care for pets. I’m able to arrange arrival and departure to fit your schedule. I am able to fit whatever needs the client has. If your pets are accustomed to being out and about in the home, I can spend time with them that way. I also am able to use kennels for feeding or sleeping if that’s what they are used to. I’m comfortable keeping things tidy and making sure it’s a safe and clean space for them to hang out.

About: Available for last minute/odd schedule requests. Everything sets me apart from others because I've learned over all my yrs experience that when trust is shown trust is given. Then everything else falls into place. ***Available for last minute/odd schedule requests.*** Animals are my escape I enjoy all of them! Life would be boring without them. They bring so much happiness to me!!!l Life is just better with them in it to enjoy with us. Remember ***(Available for last minute/odd schedule requests.)*** Fur babies run the roost! I usually take them out every half hour just for exercise or fun as well as potty breaks (which is a good way to break bad marking habits for ones training). If it's a nice day usually we are outside all day playing and walking teaching the ones who are still in need of guided assistance. Which actually makes things way easier on me. Unless of course it's just to hot to be out side. Rainy days are our lazy days or indoor activity days. Lots of cuddles and loves. My personal fur babies are not kenneled but I do have kennels for ones who prefer it. It's whatever makes them happiest. Or feel the safest. I'm a pretty good judge of character when it comes to fur babies. We read one another very well. Which in turn makes us more comfy with one another. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience with one ever.i know when to back off or come in for loves. Mutal respect is the best policy I feel.

“Jillian did a great job in coming when requested for dog walking and handled my doodle well. I recommend her to others!”
