“Eric & Emily are the best. We were so blessed to find them. Sadie has the best time with them. She loves meeting new friends while still getting to still be her big ol potato self IYKYK Thanks again so much for being the best hosts!”
“Melissa gave us updates on Echo and sent photos/videos throughout his stay which put us at ease with any worries we had. He came home happy and healthy. We will definitely rebook with Melissa when we go out of town!”
“I can't recommend her enough! Leaving Stella while I was away was one of the hardest parts of my trip, but she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. It was obvious that she treated Stella as if she were her own. Throughout my entire trip, she kept me updated with frequent messages, photos, and videos of Stella, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seeing Stella happy, comfortable, and having fun made all the difference. She always took the time to let me know how Stella was doing, and I never had to wonder if she was okay. Stella came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was easy to see how much love, patience, and attention she received during her stay. Knowing that someone cared for her with so much affection meant the world to me. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, she is absolutely the person to choose. I would leave Stella with her again without a second thought, and I'm so grateful for the wonderful care she provided. Thank you for loving Stella and taking such amazing care of her while I was away it meant more to me than words can express!”
“We can't say enough great things about Jared! He watched our girl Posie and we felt so relieved to leave her with such a capable sitter who attended to her needs so well and communicated clearly and quickly with us! He was super flexible with pick up and drop off times to accommodate our traveling schedule. Will certainly be booking again!”
“Our family is so grateful to Megan for taking such good care of Lumi! We had peace of mind knowing that she was well taken care off while we were on a trip. Megan shared many videos and photos. She also took Lumi to the dog park! We highly recommend Megan.”
“Chloe had a wonderful time at Steve's during our weekend trip away! It was really helpful to have a meet-and-greet with Steve before booking the first time. Steve made me feel comfortable knowing Chloe would be well taken care of during our trip. I loved all the photos of Chloe having a good time - it gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's easy to tell Steve truly cares about the pets in his care, which is so reassuring when you're leaving your furbaby with someone new. We will book Steve again for our next trip!”
“We've had Zoey stay with Jennifer and her family several times and they are so great with her! Zoey fits right in, and even as she's getting older they are happy to help her with what she needs. Highly recommend.”
“I feel so lucky that Leah and Chris are going to be taking care of my senior dog in a few weeks. We had a meet & greet and a trial sleepover. Although that trial was just a few hours, they sent lots of sweet photos and my guy was clearly being well cared for. Chris & Leah were focused on his comfort and well-being. It brings me invaluable peace knowing I can take my trip out of state for a week and leave my darling boy with such caring and attentive people.”
“We had such a great experience with Brandi watching our lab. She made Nellie(our lab) feel right at home and with great care. She sent pictures every day and let us know how she was doing, I can’t recommend her enough. Definitely will be going back to her next time!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog with Elaine and I would do it again. I was out of service for the 4 days that my pup stayed with her, but when i got back into service I saw that she sent photos of big stretches and him chilling with the other dogs each day. Elaine and her family were welcoming to my pup and I would recommend her as a sitter or boarding option for sure.”
“Yuting was great. She communicated daily and sent video and pics throughout our time away. Dave was exercised daily and had plenty of play time with her pups as well! Thanks, Yuting!”
“Gary & Carol were able to watch our pup, Sterling last minute. They were both kind and Sterling seemed to enjoy his time there. He must've played hard with their adorable doodle as he napped most of the day at home after picking him up. Thank you Gary & Carol!”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“Sandy was amazing. My dog is scared meeting new people and going to new places but she had the perfect system to slowly aclimate him to the new environment. When it was time to finally pick him up, he was excited to get back home, but he still went back to sit at Sandy's feet. Sandy was the perfect match for my dog and I will definitely be bringing him back again!”
“Debbie is wonderful! She took our dog on lots of walks and sent pictures and updates during his stay. Our dog looked relaxed and happy, which made us feel comfortable leaving him with her. We will definitely use Debbie again in the future.”

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals for over 8 years now! I love dogs and cats, but I’ve also cared for horses, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, and more! I’m a full-time university student, but I’ll still have plenty of time to care for your animals! Especially in the evenings and afternoons! I’m free most of the summer as well! I have a big yard for your pups to run around in, and a friendly little pup of my own! I can crate your pup if needed, or I can also drop in to your home as well!
About: I have been a cat owner in the past, and have done a lot of cat sitting over the years. I have given oral and injected medications and hunted cats out from under the bed. I am a very meticulous litter box scooper, and really take pride in this!
“McKenna was great! She did a drop-in visit for our chinchillas and was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared for them well. We came home to happy chins and really appreciated the peace of mind. Would absolutely book with her again!”
“Once again Annemarie has been fantastic. I highly recommend her. She is very responsive and consistently goes above and beyond for us. We are Annemarie fans!!”
“I can’t thank Molly enough! This was my first time using Rover, and I was nervous to have a stranger come to my house to check on the pup especially since I was out of town. Molly went above and beyond to put my mind at ease and even sent me pictures of my sweet girl to let me know that she made it and everything was ok. I will definitely be booking with Molly again!”
“Cassandra did a wonderful job pet sitting our two kitties! She was very punctual for their feeding schedule and kept their routine. She took lots of photos and gave us detailed updates so we felt very comfortable that our cats were happy and cared for while we were away. Thank you Cassandra!”
“Vivian has cared for our cats twice this year. She is consistent in her visits, spends her time engaging with the pets, and is a good communicator. Vivian sacrificed her time to care for our pets so we could spend holidays with family. She's a good one!!”
“Stacy did a great job taking care of our cat, Artemis. She provided many photos of him and we could tell he was being well taken care of - even when we came back, I think he missed her! We will definitely rebook if we need a cat sitter again.”
“Jenny provides great care for my dog. She is very reliable and prompt in responding. She has gone above and beyond in helping out in difficult situations. I really appreciate her help.”
About: I’ve cared for cats my entire life and understand that every cat has a unique personality. I’ve owned cats that have lived to be over 17 years old, cared for mother cats and her kittens, and have experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and personal needs. I understand that cats need patience and trust. I know that building a relationship with a cat happens in their terms and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved! As a pre-med student and lifelong animal lover, I am responsible, attentive, and detail oriented, ensuring your cat receives the same level of care and affection they get from you! My goal is for your cat to feel safe, comfortable, and completely at home!
About: I have had pets my whole life. I'm very comfortable with any size and breed. I have also had and taken care of special needs dogs and cats. I am not currently working so I am available for walks and sitting most days. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. I have lots of time to focus on and give your pets all of the exercise, cuddles, and pets they need! I would love to boop YOUR pet's snoot!
“Miss Tiffany immediately bonded with our fussy old cat, Leo. She understood what he wanted and delivered copious pets, snuggles and treats for 12 days. The photos were a testament to his happiness. We couldn’t be happier with her service and most definitely will request her again should the need arise.”
About: Growing up and living with five cats at home has given me a lifelong, hands-on understanding of feline behavior, body language, and daily care needs. Over the years, I have cared for a wide variety of cats, ranging from energetic, high-maintenance kittens to delicate elderly cats who require a little extra patience and gentle comfort. Because I manage a multi-cat household of five every single day, I am exceptionally comfortable handling complex daily routines, keeping multiple personalities harmonious, and noticing even the most subtle shifts in a cat's mood or appetite. My experience spans the full spectrum of feline care, including hands-on kitten care with all of its high energy and developmental needs, as well as administering medications, managing specialized feeding schedules, and providing the quiet, reassuring presence that senior cats need to feel completely safe and secure.
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, and exotic pets me whole life! I absolutely adore animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’ve had big and little dogs, cats, lizards, fish . And would love to take care of your family members as I would my own! I’m currently shifting to an opening schedule but it is a bit crazy, depending on distance from my work I can let out during my lunches as well. I do tend to stay at the house I’m sitting at so the pet doesn’t feel alone I won’t be able to bring pets to my home as unfortunately my dog is reactive. So I will not offer bording. But am more than happy to meet your pet in your home! I usually will ask for a favorite treat or snack for the pet and pick it up as a peace offering. I enjoy playtime and snuggles with all types of pets

Perfect for high energy dogs - Alpine
“Angela is a wonderful dog sitter and clearly has such a love for animals. Grace loved doggy daycare and was so excited to come back each day. Angela's communication was great and she was really kind and flexible with unexpected schedule changes. I highly recommend her as a caring, reliable person providing excellent pet care.”
“Tashi is doing well! Looks forward to going to doggie daycare with Brianna. Today, he tried to sneak out to the car when I left! He loves being around the kids and other dogs. Thank you for taking great care of him!”
“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”
“Brandi, thank you for watching my Rocky while I was gone at work. It was so nice knowing he was so well cared for. Rocky seems to enjoy going with Brandi's husband at drop off which makes me feel very comfortable leaving him. Thanks again for putting my worries at ease. You guys rock!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jared is exceptional. Jared took wonderful care of my two dogs, Sebastian and Francesca, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring. He was attentive to their needs, patient, and genuinely kind, exactly the kind of person you hope to find when trusting someone with your fur babies. Sebastian and Francesca were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up, which speaks volumes. It’s obvious Jared takes his role seriously and treats animals with real respect and care, not just as a job but as a responsibility. I would absolutely trust him again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, top-tier pet care. Thank you, Jared🌹you truly went above and beyond.”
“Jenny was great! She was able to accept a very last minute request for doggie daycare. My pups came home last night and they are still snoozy today. I will definitely use Jenny again! :)”
“Allison is awesome!! Our dog Roxy has a bit of separation anxiety when left home alone so we didn’t know how well she would do at a sitter. Thanks to Allison and her awesome dog skills Roxy did amazing and she can’t wait to go back for more play dates with her friends! Allison sent updates on how Roxy was doing and that was helpful. Now I have no worries at all of leaving Roxy with Allison.”
“Dana and Mark were a real lifesaver today. With very little notice the were able to watch my little buddy when I got stuck in Denver. Always keep me apprised of how Jack is doing. I really appreciate their professionalism and care for my Jack.”
About: I’ve spent over 20 years caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels, and what truly sets me apart is that animals aren’t just part of my schedule—they’re part of my life. I’m self-employed, which means I have the flexibility to be fully present and attentive, and my own dog goes just about everywhere with me. Dogs are woven into my daily rhythm, not squeezed into it. I’m especially skilled at reading canine body language and meeting dogs where they are emotionally and physically. I have extensive experience with off-leash dogs and understand how to manage freedom safely through awareness, trust, and clear communication. I’m also very comfortable caring for senior dogs—moving at their pace, watching for subtle changes, and providing calm, steady support. Whether a dog is high-energy and adventurous or older and more reserved, I focus on building trust, respecting individual needs, and creating a calm, confident environment where they feel safe and understood. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine. I’m self-employed, which gives me the flexibility to structure my days around the needs of the dogs in my care rather than fitting them into fixed blocks of time. My own dog is with me throughout the day, so caring for dogs is a constant, natural part of my rhythm. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to provide regular attention, timely walks, enrichment, rest breaks, and any special care a dog may need, whether that’s extra activity, medication, or a slower pace for seniors. I plan my schedule to ensure dogs are never rushed or left waiting and always receive consistent, attentive care. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, dogs have access to a spacious, fully enclosed ½-acre backyard with an 8-foot privacy fence, providing plenty of room to move, explore, and relax safely. Dogs have access to the yard through a dog door, allowing them to go in and out freely throughout the day based on their comfort level and routine. I use multiple baby gates and an external kennel to thoughtfully manage space and interactions. This allows me to separate dogs when needed, provide quiet time, or give individual dogs privacy and decompression breaks—always with my close attention and supervision. I can offer private space both indoors and outdoors, ensuring each dog has a calm, secure place to relax based on their comfort level and needs. I’m very attentive to group dynamics and individual personalities, adjusting supervision and space to ensure every dog feels safe, respected, and comfortable—whether they thrive on companionship or prefer a calmer, more structured environment.
“Elaine is pure gold. My doggo, who has massive separation anxiety, is thrilled when we roll up to her door. That would. W enough for a 5* rating! And then, she’s also super flexible with scheduling and timing! Win win win. TLDR; Elaine rocks, trust her with yer pup!”
“Dominique took great care of our two dogs, it was the the first time they had ever been left with somebody other than our family and they tend to be a bit needy so we were nervous to leave them but she was welcoming and patient and put us at ease. We booked another stay with her soon after.”
About: We are two friends who have known each other for almost ten years, and we currently live together with our two middle-aged dogs. We are animal lovers through and through. We love caring for animals and think they deserve the best. We dog sit quite often for family, friends, and neighbors, and can’t wait to meet your pup! Eileen and Carley both have very flexible schedules. Eileen works a hybrid schedule, and gets to work two days from home, and has a 3-day weekend. Carley works fully remote 5 days a week. There is always somebody home to watch the pups between the two of us. We have a fenced-in yard. It is a smaller yard, but both of our dogs use it, and we live right down the street from our neighborhood park, where we always take them for walks. We live in a 3-bedroom townhouse with plenty of space for your dog to roam around. We keep our house clean and tidy. If your dog needed to be crated in another area, we have the space. Carley's dog is Willow. She is 6, a golden doodle, and loves meeting new dog friends! Eileen's dog is Ama. She is 7, a black lab mix, and she loves people, dogs, and kitties!
“Danielle took my pup Dinah in for a last minute day care and was very friendly and the environment was very tidy and dog friendly. She did great with Dinah and my pup seemed so happy after pick up. I highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Another great day with Shell! We have been taking our 1.5 yr old lab / border collie to Shell since this summer, and every visit helps with her ongoing rehabilitation from ptsd from before we adopted her. This time, Panda had regressed a little in anxiety and reactivity, but Shell handled it like the pro she is. She was gentle but firm, and over the day, sent me plenty of videos and photos to show how Panda was re-gaining her social strides. Shell really gets dogs and the dynamics with their humans. She gets how to bring them into good socialization with other dogs. We are so glad to have found Shell!”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I've owned pit bulls, Italian Greyhounds, and cats, giving me firsthand experience with everything from strong, energetic dogs to sensitive, high-energy breeds and independent felines. Because of this, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's unique needs and personality. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've volunteered at my local Humane Society, where I spent time working with dogs of various breeds, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience helped me become confident handling dogs with different energy levels and personalities while ensuring they felt safe, comfortable, and cared for. Friends, family, and neighbors have also trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they're away. As a Certified Nursing Assistant, providing compassionate, dependable care comes naturally to me, and I bring that same level of patience, attention to detail, and responsibility to every pet I care for. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in great hands. I understand that every pet is unique, and I'll take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide the best care possible. As a nursing student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week and weekends. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits and I do my best to accommodate each family's schedule whenever possible. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I'll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they're used to while you're away. I know inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I'll always treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own while making your pet's safety and comfort my top priority. I'll follow your pet's routine, administer medications if needed, and carefully follow any feeding, walking, or care instructions you provide. With experience caring for my own pit bulls, Italian Greyhounds, and cats, as well as volunteering with dogs at the Humane Society, I'm comfortable working with pets of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I'll provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

“Big heart and very patient with our extra large puppy who has lots of energy! Reliable and detailed in following directions for meds and our handling preferences. Our pup loves Tracy and we feel confident leaving her in Tracy's care. Great job!”
“Maureen is Absolutely fabulous! My dog absolutely loves her, and it’s easy to see why. She’s dependable, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She also takes the most amazing pictures, which is such a thoughtful bonus and always makes my day. She is worth every penny, and I feel completely comfortable knowing my dog is in such great hands. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve grown up spending time with and taking care of my own dogs and cats as well as those of my family and friends! In the past couple years I have been doing a lot of pet sitting for people from my job and church, and I would love to branch that out to be able to meet more furry friends! I’m currently working a very part time job, so I have lots of time for hanging out with your animals! I only work a couple evenings during the week so I have plenty of free time especially during mornings and mid-day on weekdays:) Usually when I pet sit I stay overnight, but I have had a couple instances where I just check in every once in a while and I’ll play with them in their own space so they can be as comfortable as possible!
“Vivian was so great with our border collie. She has a past injury to her trachea so walking can be difficult for her, she was so patient with her and took her time. I definitely recommend her!”
“Cassandra is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves working with dogs. My pups always come back happy and tired from their walks. I feel completely at ease knowing my dog is in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Today was more of a meet and greet with my senior dog. Jack’s got some behavioral issues and isn’t the best with new people. Lyla was great. She had a very calming energy. Jack warmed up to her and was able to settle down and relax in her presence.”
About: I have three years of professional pet care experience, giving me a deep understanding of how to keep dogs and cats safe, happy, and completely comfortable while their owners are away. Over the years, I have worked with a wide variety of animals with different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments, which has taught me how to adapt quickly to whatever a pet needs. Whether I am managing precise daily feeding routines, keeping high-energy dogs active and engaged through structured playtime, or providing quiet, gentle companionship for older pets, I approach every interaction by treating them as if they were my own. I always stay attentive to animal body language and behavior so I can catch any subtle shifts in mood or appetite, ensuring they stay content and secure from start to finish. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work part-time right in the heart of Battle Ground and balance it with a flexible college schedule. This setup gives me plenty of open time throughout the week and on weekends to dedicate undivided attention, care, and playtime to pets. Additionally, caring for five of my own cats at home means feline care and daily routines are already second nature to me, allowing me to easily adapt my schedule to meet any pet's specific needs. When caring for pets in either my home or a client home, my approach focuses on creating a secure, calm, and deeply comforting environment tailored to their exact needs. In my own home, we have two wonderful dogs, a beagle hound mix and an Anatolian shepherd, alongside five cats, meaning I am exceptionally experienced in managing multi pet dynamics, diverse temperaments, and varying energy levels. Whether I am caring for high energy kittens, elderly cats requiring medication and specialized feeding routines, or dogs needing a watchful eye, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I stay deeply attentive to their behavior and body language, ensuring they feel completely safe and secure while their owners are away.
“Our doggie loves his walks with Sarah! He recognizes her car, and actually watches for her when he thinks the time is right. She's punctual and friendly, and an obvious dog lover.”
About: I've been a pet owner and I currently help my 5 adult kids with all their fur babies. Currently I live with my daughters 10 yr old great Dane named Lincoln. But when I'm in North Tacoma I help with a 13 yr old Australian Shepard named Dot. 3 yr old Corgi named kenzo. 9 yr old terrier named Kona. 1yr old terrier named Mocha. I am a full time grandma of a granddaughter who'll be 2 in Nov 18th. I will and can do house sitting during the week but it had to include allowing me to bring my granddaughter. She's great with dogs and cats. The whole family has them in various breeds and sizes. Otherwise I am available for weekends Fridays Saturdays Sundays possibly Monday if there's no school. My daughter is a elementary teacher so I was available all summer but now that she's back to work I have limited house sitting days but still open for pet check ins. I am detail oriented. Military brat and former US ARMY vet. So I like a schedule and instructions to follow. It's your fur child so I'm here to help you in anyway I can
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and have experience with a wide variety of pets, from ponies to puppies. I’ve provided walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, playtime, feeding, medication administration, and plenty of love and attention along the way. I have a combination of hands on experience and animal knowledge. I’ve lived on a mini farm mh entire life, shadowed my sister who is an ER veterinarian, and as a pre-med student, I am attentive, responsible, and detail oriented. I have had many pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family! My goal is always to return pets happier, with their tails wagging and owners smiling!! I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which gives me availability throughout the week and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. When I’m not working, I’m spending time with my animals, staying active, and making sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I keep my schedule updated and prioritize reliability, communication, and consistency so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands! I primarily provide care in my clients homes, allowing pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment, walk their neighborhoods, and maintain their normal routines. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and owners. For pets that may need care in my home, I do not have any indoor pets, providing a calm environment and comfortable space for my visitors! I also have access to a secure outdoor kennel that can be set up if needed!
“My GSD is a challenge to walk and requires long walk rain or shine. Chelsea took on her challenge by giving her lots of love and attention. She showed up rain, cold and shine. She is reliable and communication was frequent. Thank you Chelsea for being Maggie's BFF while I was away.”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I'm very comfortable with any size and breed. I have also had and taken care of special needs dogs and cats. I am not currently working so I am available for walks and sitting most days. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. I have lots of time to focus on and give your pets all of the exercise, cuddles, and pets they need! I would love to boop YOUR pet's snoot!
About: I have had dogs for my entire life! I currently have 2 dogs. Both are Rhodesian Ridgebacks. Trinity is our senior girl 13 yrs old, and Shira who is 2. I have had the most experience with big dogs (mainly German Shepherds and now Rhodesian Ridgebacks). I have done Schutzhund with my shepherds and have done dog shows and obedience shows locally with my Ridgebacks. Our dogs and the ones I take care of are always my priority. I treat all dogs like they are mine so they get all the love, snuggles, and attention they want. I have a safe and secure home and yard. We have a 3/4 acre completely fenced back yard fenced to 6 feet high. We are in the country and have lots of bunnies for them to chase. We also have a creek on our property that in good weather would be fun for the dogs to play in. I have some agility equipment that I will break out when the weather is nice and let dogs go through those or show them how. For rainy days we have toys and dog puzzles to keep their minds active. We also have a shop that I can put up agility equipment when the weather is lousy and cold so they can chase each other around in there if they are getting antsy. I also do daily obedience with my own dog and any other dog that is with me and wants to join in. While most of my experience has been with big dogs, I will work with any style and breed of dog after I meet them and we get to know each other. I also have experience working with packs of dogs, as at one time, I had a large pack of both German Shepherds, and then Ridgebacks. I also have a lot of experience working with puppies and can help with basic training. I seem to have a knack to help dogs who normally don’t eat or are very nervous when being left with someone else. I have had many boarders who’s moms and dads said were picky eaters or wouldn’t eat for a couple of days and somehow with me they eat well, don’t miss meals, and many times expand their diets. If you have a dog that takes medication I can, and have, administered meds that their parents bring. But I will only administer prescription meds written by a licensed veterinarian to the specific dog with explicit instructions. Bottom line, I don’t just “board” dogs. They are part of the family and treated as such until you get back. They Are talked to, interacted with by my dogs and myself and my husband all day long. They aren’t just put in a room or left outside to fend for themselves. They are truly being loved and cared for from the minute they are dropped off until the minute you pick them up. My husband and I are retired so I am full time at home now. So I can board 7 days a week. And overnight care at my house will be my specialty as you never have to worry about your dog being left for hours during the day or night. I have a very “dog friendly” home. That being said my house is clean and fairly tidy. I clean daily to make sure the dogs are in the best environment. My goal is to have your dog go home with you better than when they came. If they are full of mud from playing outside in the rain they will be washed and dried before they go home. If their nails are too long I will cut them (if the dog allows). If they need to be brushed, I will brush them and often give them a massage…this is especially good for the nervous dogs. If they are scared and feel nervous they will be returned happy and calm from being pampered while you were away. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture including our bed and can play inside or outside with my dogs who are very friendly to other dogs and people. I don’t crate any of my dogs and don’t require dogs that stay with me to be crated during the day or night. If you prefer your dog to be crated at night I will follow your instructions if you bring the crate that they are used to. Many of the dogs that I board sleep in our bed but they also have very plush beds throughout our home that they can sleep on overnight or during the day for naps. Wherever they feel more comfortable sleeping is fine with me even if they don’t want to be in our room with us and our dogs.
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, and exotic pets me whole life! I absolutely adore animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’ve had big and little dogs, cats, lizards, fish . And would love to take care of your family members as I would my own! I’m currently shifting to an opening schedule but it is a bit crazy, depending on distance from my work I can let out during my lunches as well. I do tend to stay at the house I’m sitting at so the pet doesn’t feel alone I won’t be able to bring pets to my home as unfortunately my dog is reactive. So I will not offer bording. But am more than happy to meet your pet in your home! I usually will ask for a favorite treat or snack for the pet and pick it up as a peace offering. I enjoy playtime and snuggles with all types of pets
About: I have always had a dog since I was a kid, when I was a teenager I used to walk dogs around my neighborhood. I also volunteered for an animal rescue. Now, I work for an animal urgent care and have experience with both dogs and cats, as well as own my own dog and cat. I'm currently working full time, so for boarding your pet may be alone while I'm at work unless they are kennel trained they can go to work with me. I will be taking them on walks before and after work. I work 10 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I have one dog who is young and loves to play all day! I can kennel your pet if needed, as well as my own. I have fenced land for the dogs to run and play.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a love for caring for them! I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, fish, and even some less traditional pets—I’ve taken care of my sister’s hedgehog, too! I also volunteer with the Humane Society, where I spend time walking and caring for dogs. I’ve fostered animals as well, so I understand how important patience, attention, and making each pet feel safe and comfortable can be. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’d love to care for them and treat them like one of my own! I am a recent college graduate who wants to stay active by walking dogs and make some extra cash! I want to help out people who are working and can’t take their dogs out during the day! My dogs at home are very needy and spoiled, so I’m used to giving my dogs all the attention they want and all the walks they want. I will be willing to take them on walks, and hangout with them during the day!
“Izzabella is fantastic! She’s even been helping leash train the busy-body husky puppy that has proven to be quite a bit of work. I immediately felt comfortable with Izzabella and I am very grateful my girls are getting out for some exercise with her on my long work days.”

“Melissa gave us updates on Echo and sent photos/videos throughout his stay which put us at ease with any worries we had. He came home happy and healthy. We will definitely rebook with Melissa when we go out of town!”
“We can't say enough great things about Jared! He watched our girl Posie and we felt so relieved to leave her with such a capable sitter who attended to her needs so well and communicated clearly and quickly with us! He was super flexible with pick up and drop off times to accommodate our traveling schedule. Will certainly be booking again!”
“Chloe had a wonderful time at Steve's during our weekend trip away! It was really helpful to have a meet-and-greet with Steve before booking the first time. Steve made me feel comfortable knowing Chloe would be well taken care of during our trip. I loved all the photos of Chloe having a good time - it gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's easy to tell Steve truly cares about the pets in his care, which is so reassuring when you're leaving your furbaby with someone new. We will book Steve again for our next trip!”
“I feel so lucky that Leah and Chris are going to be taking care of my senior dog in a few weeks. We had a meet & greet and a trial sleepover. Although that trial was just a few hours, they sent lots of sweet photos and my guy was clearly being well cared for. Chris & Leah were focused on his comfort and well-being. It brings me invaluable peace knowing I can take my trip out of state for a week and leave my darling boy with such caring and attentive people.”
“We had such a great experience with Brandi watching our lab. She made Nellie(our lab) feel right at home and with great care. She sent pictures every day and let us know how she was doing, I can’t recommend her enough. Definitely will be going back to her next time!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog with Elaine and I would do it again. I was out of service for the 4 days that my pup stayed with her, but when i got back into service I saw that she sent photos of big stretches and him chilling with the other dogs each day. Elaine and her family were welcoming to my pup and I would recommend her as a sitter or boarding option for sure.”
“Yuting was great. She communicated daily and sent video and pics throughout our time away. Dave was exercised daily and had plenty of play time with her pups as well! Thanks, Yuting!”
“Gary & Carol were able to watch our pup, Sterling last minute. They were both kind and Sterling seemed to enjoy his time there. He must've played hard with their adorable doodle as he napped most of the day at home after picking him up. Thank you Gary & Carol!”
“The people in this home made Mabel feel welcomed and loved. How do I know? All of the pictures and updates Christine sent me! I was able to work out of town without worrying about my girl, Mabes. My work can be stressful, and not having to worry about Mabel means so much to me. I will definitely want Mabel to go back to Christine's home!”
“Debbie is wonderful! She took our dog on lots of walks and sent pictures and updates during his stay. Our dog looked relaxed and happy, which made us feel comfortable leaving him with her. We will definitely use Debbie again in the future.”
“Moira was awesome! She took such great care of Rufus, sent a lot of pictures every day and filled me in on how he was while I was away! She went above and beyond with the meet and greet, having Rufus explore the place before going there to stay. She took him on walks and made sure to have water available and a foldable bowl for any moment he needed to drink. She was thoughtful throughout every part! I highly recommend her and couldn’t be happier with my Rover experience. :)”
