“Susan took wonderful care of Roscoe. She was great with communication and kept me updated throughout the stay. We felt our fur baby was in good hands the whole time and I would recommend her to anyone else looking for pet care in the area.”
“Buddy's stay with Edward went great. The drop off and pick up was quick. Ed took picture and sent update of Buddy chilling with another dog. I would highly recommend Edward and use him again in the future.”
“Megan was an amazing sitter! Our Frenchie had a little health issue prior to our drop off and Megan navigated a few restrictions on Tula's activity, as requested. She updated us with photos and reports throughout the stay, and we felt Tula settled in well with Megan. We highly recommend Megan and will be using her services again soon.”
“Larisa is very good with dogs. I also love that she keeps the dogs in her home. Our dog doesn't have separation anxiety but misses us terribly when we're gone. Being with a loving person really helped.”
“We've boarded our poodle with Jeanne several times, including a couple extended stays. I can tell he loves going to Jeanne's, she always makes him feel right at home. Her house is clean and safe. She is attentive to my directions on care, feeding, and grooming. Can't recommend her more highly.”
About: Hi there! My name is Sage, and I’m passionate about caring for pets of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience giving pills, shots, and other medications, as well as caring for both senior cats who need a little extra patience and love, and playful kittens and puppies. I’ve also helped with potty training for puppies and understand the unique attention that both young and elderly pets require. At home, I’m the proud owner of two cats who keep me on my toes and remind me every day why I love animals so much. My goal is always to provide the same level of care, comfort, and kindness to your pets as I do my own. I have evenings open to love on your pets! If you have a busy night planned or a late night at work, leave your pet in my hands! I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own home. As a sitter, I provide respectful, reliable care that follows your pet’s normal routine, from feeding and playtime to medications and cuddles. Whether your pet is young, elderly, or needs special attention, I treat them with patience and love—just like my own two cats. I know my way around Mount Pleasant trails and parks when your pet needs to get some energy out!
“Christina did a wonderful job with our dog! We are very happy, and would definitely hire her again! Our dog is 13 years old and has almost never spent a night away from home, so we were a little nervous. He stayed with Christina for 5 days and she cared for him so well! The daily texts from her were so nice and reassuring! She made it very easy for us and our dog! He must have been comfortable with Christina because he came home like he'd never left!”
“We really appreciated Kumar agreeing to take on Baxter last minute after our previous plan fell through! He sent photo updates to let us know how our little guy was doing. Drop off and pickup was easy!”
“Stephanie was awesome. She took such good care of my boys. She sent me pics and kept me updated on their daily activities. Stephanie's house was very clean and her yard had designated potty areas. She has her own dog that is a total sweetheart and was very kind to my two dogs. You can tell that Stephanie knows dogs and how to take care of them. I will definitely use her again.”
“Kelsey and her family made my pups feel at home the weekend they spent with them. They had never boarded before so I was nervous. She was very reassuring and communicative when I would text to inquire how they were. The dogs were safe and loved there. We would recommend Kelsey and her family as great place for your pet to stay.”
“Ashly was great! Very accommodating to our schedule and to our boy Hank. We had an enjoyable and relaxing get away knowing Hank was well taken care of! Highly recommend, and will definitely call Ashley again when we are in the area next summer!”
“Tabitha was great with Addie! She and her family made a gentle introduction to their other dog, and they had endless running and playing in their fenced yard! She also sent a bunch of photos and a video. We were grateful that our dog had such a fun filled day while we were away!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds and sizes of animals since a very young age, I love spending my time outdoors all year round no matter the weather! I’ve always had a passion for not just dogs but all types of animals and will continue to always believe animals are better than people.🤍 I’m currently home full time Monday through Sunday (with the exception of appointments, shopping, etc.) and am available from morning to night and even overnight stays! If I care for your fur/scaled/feathered baby in your home I will follow all rules and protocols given to me, as well as spend as much time with them as I possibly can!

“Kumar was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! I was especially nervous about leaving because one of them, Relic, is a formerly feral girl who’s very shy with new people. (Beezle, my other cat, is a social butterfly—toss him a treat and he’s instantly your best friend.) But Kumar handled Relic’s quirks with so much patience and care. He came by twice a day, sent me photos and videos every visit, and never hesitated to check in if he had questions. His communication was fantastic, and he totally put my mind at ease. If I need a sitter again, I’ll be crossing my fingers that Kumar’s available—he did an amazing job, and I’m so grateful!”

“Alana was right on time for multiple visits to care for and check on my big Akita/husky pup. She sent pictures of him playing on each visit and sent me texts updating me on his status. Couldn't ask for better!”
“I can’t speak highly enough of Rebecca! The care and attention shows in her communication and energy she gave to our two large dogs. We have a high energy young lab and a senior German Shepard and she handled both of their needs without hesitation. She understood their personalities and captured them perfectly in the photos we received!! Our first time booking and I felt so comfortable being away I hardly looked at my phone. I knew our boys were in great hands. I couldn’t recommend enough and will be booking again!!”

“Stephanie was very kind and helpful in watching my pup while I attended a wedding. As advertised, she has a really great property and her pups are very sweet. Stephanie cares about them a lot and is clearly an animal lover. She was great in sending me some photos of their day and was very pleasant to talk with. Would recommend to others and would certainly return if ever needed in the future!”
“What a gem! I was VERY nervous leaving him as he’s quite old and currently needs his activity curtailed due to back problems. She kept in frequent contact and sent many pics. I would highly recommend!”
“This guy is the real deal! He knows what he’s doing. For example, he knows how to introduce dogs to each other and is very observant of dog behavior. I feel very secure with him taking care of my little guy.”
“Kumar is great! He's been a dog sitter for me four times the past two weeks for fifteen hours total. Extremely friendly with my dog. Takes him on one or two walks. Reliable and flexible with scheduling. I'll be working with him more going forward. Much appreciated!”

“Christina is definitely a pet lover who cares! Our dog felt right at home the moment we set foot in her home and had a wonderful time. We will certainly use Christina whenever we are in the Stanwood area!”
About: I have many years experience with cats, even wild bred cats. But due to having two cats myself, I am not taking any cats for boarding. Maybe interested in stopping by and feeding and cleaning litters I am currently working but my husband is home 100% of the time and kids are also here that love playing with animals, bathing them, and taking them for walks. We have a fenced in backyard where we have a dog ourselves that is a mixed breed dog that has been introduced to many other animals and has never been anything but excited to have a pail.

About: Hi! I’m Melody, a huge animal lover and proud dog mom to two sweet huskies.

“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”
About: I have had multiple dogs since I was little and get along with all shapes and sizes. I used to go door-to-door and no matter if it was a random dog or strays, that dog and me were becoming besties. I work from home Monday-Friday, so if you have internet, I can work there or I can just drop in. My schedule is pretty flexible, but I just need to know in advance. I can care for the pet in any way that you ask- bathing, food, potty breaks, walks, etc. I am pretty flexible with what kind of care is needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m experienced and comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m a huge dog person who truly loves spending time with them—whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them extra attention and affection. As a college student with classes only two days a week, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care during weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute requests. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me; it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Every dog I care for is treated like part of my own family, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m a college student and only have class two days a week, so I have a lot of free time during the rest of the week. Because of that, I’ve started offering pet-sitting and dog-walking services to make good use of my schedule. My open availability makes it easy to help pet owners who work long hours, travel, or just need someone dependable to check in on their animals. I can handle daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care, and I’m available on short notice most weekdays and weekends. Pet sitting has been a great way to earn extra money while spending time with animals, and it fits perfectly with my flexible college routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while following the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home: I make sure to follow all instructions for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep the home tidy, give pets plenty of attention, and send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing. In my home (if applicable): I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with room to play and relax. Dogs get regular walks, exercise, and cuddle time, and I keep their feeding and bathroom schedules consistent with what they’re used to. Because I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, I can spend extra time with pets, giving them the attention and care they need throughout the day instead of just quick check-ins.
“Taylor was amazing! Yesterday was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about my pup being home alone... Taylor called me at work (per my request) so that I could go over how to get into my house, etc. and she calmed my nerves too :) when she got there, he had tore up his mattress pad in his kennel- she cleaned it up so that he couldn’t eat it. She then walked him, took pictures for me and played with him enough to tire him out for a bit. She was so good with him anc it was so appreciated! ❤️❤️”

About: I have two fur babies of my own. One being a Female Corgi with a heart murmur, and one being a Pitbull greyhound mix. I’m in school for Veterinary technology, so my love for animals is also backed up by a future degree! I have a flexible schedule as well! I pay close attention to details, and love the outdoors! I have a very flexible schedule! I’m almost positive unless I have extra clients booked I’ll be free to watch your fur baby! Please reach out and we can discuss your pet care needs!

“Alana was very professional, observant and attentive to the dogs. They can be a little skittish and nervous with new people but she was very gentle with them and helped them feel at ease. She even noticed and let me know about a health issue for one of my dogs, which I really appreciated.”
