“Sheri and her husband did a wonderful job with my Omar. They kept him well walked and tired by the end of each day. He usually doesn't eat while away from me, but with them he ate well. Having them home all day was an added bonus, he is very much a people loving dog and wants to be near someone at all times. They sent a daily picture, as well as a short description of his day. I will not hesitate to take him back for another stay if need be.”
“April so kind and caring when it came to my pup! I had to find care last minute, which caused a lot of stress for me. She soothed all my doubts and make sure my girl had a great stay. April is definitely somebody that I will book with for future boarding needs! :)”
“Thank you, Liudmila, for taking care of our sweet puppy. She had a wonderful time with you and your family and came home such a happy, calm girl! I really appreciate all the love and care you gave her!”
“My dogs mean everything to me and it can be difficult to find a dog sitter who understands the assignment. Allison understood the assignment. My girls are 10 years apart in age are different in temperament and personality. To me, it doesn’t take a lot to care for them but I never know if that is different in the eyes of the sitter. Allison welcomed them both into her home and cared for them just as I would. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay. She was also flexible in drop off time as I had a brain fart when initially booking the stay. I will definitely choose Allison again for future stays!”
“Kayla took great care of our pup! He loved having so much open space to run and play. She sent many pictures of him playing and having fun. He came back clean and happy and tired! Highly recommend - especially for high energy dogs.”
“Once again, Marshelle was a great sitter. My boy Buster had a great time with her and her family. When I went to drop him off at her house, he got really excited. He definitely knew where we were going. Highly recommended Marshelle!!”
“Morgan took good care of Enzo. She shared his pictures on regular basis. She was very patient with him even after he chased her cats. :). Overall, he had a nice stay with lots of company. Thanks to Morgan.”
“Britt and her husband Damon were just amazing. Very considerate and kept us continually informed how our dog was doing. She asked all kind of questions to make sure she did the best by our dog. They were just outstanding.”
“Mary was incredible with our boy Hardy. He has separation anxiety and we got regular pictures and communication about his well being. She took him on some amazing hikes and also kept him covered in blankets! She was extremely responsive and I can tell Hardy really enjoyed his time. Thanks Mary for making the holidays less stressful by taking such great care of our pup! Hardy will be booked again!!”
“Hayley was such a life saver. She took the best care of my 2 pups when we had to fly out and kept us updated :). She was also so flexible with the timing :) definitely recommend!”
“Aarika was absolutely amazing!! She was flexible and communicative through our entire last-minute planning process. She sent daily progress updates and photos of our sweet boy smiling and having so much fun (and getting lots of pats, which he loves!!) We will absolutely be booking with Aarika again! :)”
“Samantha was such a great sitter that words cannot describe what a perfect sitter AND PERSON she is. Her daughters, Nova and Ivy, also gave lots of love to our Jenny; Ivy, age 2, said after hugging and kissing Jenny, “You can leave Jenny with us any time, we’re not that busy.” Jenny was returned to us looking (and smelling) better than when we left her off with the Johnsons; their dog, Groot, was a wonderful playmate for Jenny, AND Groot and Jenny eat the same dig food, Farmers Dog, and they both love it. 🐶🐶😎😎🦮🦮”
“We had a fantastic experience with Vaishali and Vaibhav watching our dog, Charlie. They were professional, caring, and attentive. Charlie was clearly very comfortable and happy—he got his walks, meals, and lots of love, just like at home. We especially appreciated the regular photo and message updates that kept us reassured while we were away. It’s not easy leaving your pet behind, but Vaishali and Vaibhav made it stress-free for us and for Charlie. We will definitely be booking with them again the next time we travel.”
“I am so glad we found Carmen! We left our dogs in her care during our recent spring break. I have to say that from our initial meeting I knew she would be a great fit for our energetic dogs. Her home has a huge fully fenced yard that my dogs thoroughly enjoyed. Carmen sent a ton of photos and updates throughout the week. She even took the dogs to a river nearby that they could play in. My dogs were super happy about that I’m sure. Carmen and her family were super great. My dogs had so much fun they were a bit sad to come home ? Can’t wait to book our dogs again. Thank you Carmen for the awesome care and for being so flexible with scheduling. I really appreciate it!”
“Monica is the best! Juniper has stayed with Monica and Scott multiple times now- and they are reliably great. Super communicative and detailed with lots of photos to let us know how things are going. Juniper has a fun time going on walks with Monica and we love that she works on introducing her to new people and pets and experiences. Keeps us at ease when we can't be with her that she is well cared for and having some fun new experiences too!”
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dog. You provided so many pictures to let us know that she was happy and having a wonderful time as a part of your family for the weekend thank you and I am giving you a five star rating because you are worth every star.”
“Riitta is amazing! We had water damage at our house, and she took our dog on very short notice—even though she had vacation plans. When the mitigation ended up taking longer than expected, she was kind enough to let us extend our dog's stay, again on short notice. So happy with her services!!”

“Emily watched over my 4 month old pup, who can have a lot of energy at times. She was very communicative and professional. She was very accommodating to my dog’s needs and he was well taken care of. I’d highly recommend Emily to watch your pup :).”
“Naomi did an amazing job watching my 5 cats! I have never used roover before but we became in a bind and after looking at all of the options she stood out the most, and I am so happy we picked her! The cats were all happy when we came home, we’ll feed, litter area spotless and even offered to help with other household chores that helped us greatly during our two week honeymoon. Highly recommend!”
“Michael did an excellent job looking after our cats. He made sure to get a picture of at least one of them every visit. There was some issues with his schedule that came up and he did his best to communicate with us even though there was an 8 hour time difference between us. We appreciate everything that Michael did for us during such a long vacation.”
“Dasha continues to be an amazing kitty sitter. This time she noticed a small red mark that had appeared on our kitty. She sent us photos and gave us updates so we could make decisions on if she would need to see the vet when we came back in a day or two. We really appreciate that she looks out for our kitty in many different ways.”
“Jordan took incredible care of our two cats while we were out of town! Jordan went above and beyond for us and sent us sweet pictures every drop-in! We definitely will use Jordan again in the future!”

I’ve been a volunteer at pet rescues over the years and have an extra-special fondness for pets in their golden years. I’ve done a lot of pet sitting over the years, which has included everything from walks, baths and play to administering medication and cleaning up accidents - there isn’t a lot that phases me. I treat each pet like I would my own, giving them the same love, care and attention they get from their family. I look forward to doing the same for yours 😊 I work from home during the week with a flexible schedule which allows me the opportunity to care for pets during the day - whether it’s for a walk, a check-in for a potty break, or even just for some cuddles and play. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible, which means I’m happy to follow whatever routine it is that you have set. Does Max need their food heated up to a specific temperature so they’ll eat it? Done. Does Gabby need to be crated? No problem. All pets are unique, so their needs can be too. I always go over routines and preferences with parents to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I know when I have entrusted my pet to someone else I love getting pictures, so you can rest assured if you do too I will send them as much as you want! You are also always welcome to ask for them anytime, no matter how often. As your pets wellbeing is my priority, I can ensure my focus is 100% on them when we’re together.

“Nicole was a life saver! We had an opportunity to travel to Houston, but were concerned about how to get our two kitties attended to - Nicole to the rescue! She stopped by daily and fed/watered and took care of the litter box and got to play with one of our cats - the other was too elusive for her to interact with, but we know both were well cared for! We will definitely call Nicole the next time a travel opportunity comes up!”
“This is our second review for Dorian. We are very grateful for her services. Even our skittish kitty was able to warm up to her. She’s trust worthy, reliable and a great choice for a sitter!”

“Samantha and her family were great! Very welcoming and accommodating to my older dog quirks. The puppy really enjoyed playing with her friendly dog and it was a great socializing experience for him. I will definitely use her services again and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Our dog was happy when we dropped her off, showing that she had good memories from her past stay. She was relaxed, tired but happy when we picked her up, so had plenty of play time outside. She has separation anxiety and some insecurities, so it was great to see how comfortable she is there. Very happy with the daycare.”
“We love Nicole! What a gem of a find. We have been bringing our 11 month old dog to daycare, and it is such a game changer for us. She will be coming back to Nicole’s again and again! Libby is exhausted, happy, and secure at the end of a day of play. She gets to be a dog while I’m at work, which is how it should be. And I am so much happier at work knowing that she is having such a blast. The experience Nicole provides for the dogs is safe, healthy, and so dang fun - I’ve literally never seen our pup so tired. Her days at Nicole’s are improving her experience all around; her tendency to be nervous has settled, she feels more confident and just all around happy. Which is so cool to see. We are thrilled. Oh, and the pictures she sends absolutely make my day!!!!”

“While in Washington for a special event I needed someone to care for my senior dog for several hours a day over the course of two days and Rachael came through for me. I knew my dog was in a safe, caring place and in capable hands. I would readily use her services again if in the vicinity.”
“Marshelle is wonderful! Tobin, our Newfie/Pyrenees mix, is a good-natured fellow but a dog that large just makes a pretty big impact. We needed to clean and re-grout our kitchen floor and there was no way that was going to happen with Tobin underfoot. Marshelle watched him for the day and it was a win-win: I got a fresh, new floor and Tobin came home tired and happy. We will definitely use Marshelle again in the future!”

I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to bring your dog along for adventures in nature, whether that means hiking in the mountains, visiting the water, or simply enjoying long walks outside.

I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I keep a clean, calm home with no other pets or small children, so they have plenty of space to relax. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and always keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being.

“Having Jiahna care for Gideon has been a real pleasure. She was very helpful and flexible as we did a meet and greet and evaluated if Gideon would be a good fit. She took time to ask really good questions about Gideon and learn all she could so it's the better care for Gideon. From the get-go, Gideon loved being at her house and sharing time with her puppy. It was a good fit. I always knew that Jiahna had Gideon's best in mind, and I always got good reports at the end of the day. So very glad that I got to meet and have Gideon stay with Jiahna.

I loved that she was constantly updating about the dogs, and sending pictures and she took the time to play with them, fed them and took them for a walk. She was very patient with the dogs.

About: Hi, I'm Trisha! I have been married for a little over 5 years to my husband Shawn. I have 2 children, a 10 year old boy, named Orion, and my daughter Kaylee, who would have been 22 years old, unfortunately she passed away from a car accident in 2020. I grew up in a little country town in CA. And was raised with animals. My grandpa was a big animal lover, and we had everything from a baby bear cub to kittens. I was in FFA for 4 years and raised a pig all 4 years to sell at the fair. Shawn is from the Arlington area and was also raised with animals. He has raised everything from goats to kittens. We feel that your pets aren't just pets, but more like a child, and we know the importance of finding the right care for your Fur-Babies. A majority of the pets we have cared for have been rescue pets. The the transition for them is hard enough as it is being left at a stranger's house, and we don't want to make that transition any more difficult for them. We ask that you bring an item with them, something that they associate with you and home. Also we ask for these items as well: food, food bowl, and water bowl, bed or bedding, toys they may want to play with, treats, and of course a daily interaction log ( we want to keep them on the same routine that they are use to, or as close to it as we can) I also try and send pictures daily, but in the off chance I miss a day, I send extra shots the next day. If we sound like a good fit for you, we are always happy to set up a meet and greet at our place for introductions. (We have also taken in fur-kids without meet and greets.) Drop off and pick up are as followed: Drop Offs: before 6:30am are an additional $10.00 Pick ups: after 8pm will be an additional $1.00 per minute unless prior arrangements have been made with Shawn or myself. Also we have a $20.00 off your first booking with us, for you! (Can only be used for our services) please ask for coupon code! Have a great day. And we look forward to caring for your Fur-Babies🐱🐕🐶🐩🐺🐈 I currently work 7am to 3pm Monday through Friday. And Shawn works from home as an independent contractor, so your Fur-baby would always have someone with them. We live in quiet housing complex right off of Smokey Point Blvd. that gives you quick and easy access to I5. We have a 6'' fenced back yard, live at the end of a dead end street, very little traffic.
About: Animal lover looking to meet your pets needs. I used to work at a dog and cat boarding facility so I have experience working with different breeds and personalities. I am trained to give medicine such as pills, insulin, and eye drops. I would love to take your furry friend for a hike or run. Message me if you want to meet up and get to know each other before deciding to proceed. My schedule is highly flexible as I am only working part-time right now. I am looking for on-call and overnight but could be available for a longer-term position as well. I will watch over your animals as if they are my own. I will diligently follow safety and feeding instructions. Every pet is different and my care is adaptable to provide you and your pet the best experience.
About: I have worked at veterinarians, pet stores, and animal shelters, with pets of all kinds. I love walkng, cuddling and hanging out with all dogs. I’m a stay at home mom on a farm. I love spending time with my animals and also have a Sniffspot so other dogs can enjoy our space. When your dog first gets here they can smell around all the new smells and then decide if they want to interact with the other animals or not. I supervise any interactions to keep everyone safe. All dogs are welcome to be inside or outside. We have 5 fully fenced acres.

“Sheri and her husband did a wonderful job with my Omar. They kept him well walked and tired by the end of each day. He usually doesn't eat while away from me, but with them he ate well. Having them home all day was an added bonus, he is very much a people loving dog and wants to be near someone at all times. They sent a daily picture, as well as a short description of his day. I will not hesitate to take him back for another stay if need be.”
“April so kind and caring when it came to my pup! I had to find care last minute, which caused a lot of stress for me. She soothed all my doubts and make sure my girl had a great stay. April is definitely somebody that I will book with for future boarding needs! :)”
“My dogs mean everything to me and it can be difficult to find a dog sitter who understands the assignment. Allison understood the assignment. My girls are 10 years apart in age are different in temperament and personality. To me, it doesn’t take a lot to care for them but I never know if that is different in the eyes of the sitter. Allison welcomed them both into her home and cared for them just as I would. She provided updates and photos throughout the stay. She was also flexible in drop off time as I had a brain fart when initially booking the stay. I will definitely choose Allison again for future stays!”
“Kayla took great care of our pup! He loved having so much open space to run and play. She sent many pictures of him playing and having fun. He came back clean and happy and tired! Highly recommend - especially for high energy dogs.”
“Mary was incredible with our boy Hardy. He has separation anxiety and we got regular pictures and communication about his well being. She took him on some amazing hikes and also kept him covered in blankets! She was extremely responsive and I can tell Hardy really enjoyed his time. Thanks Mary for making the holidays less stressful by taking such great care of our pup! Hardy will be booked again!!”
“Hayley was such a life saver. She took the best care of my 2 pups when we had to fly out and kept us updated :). She was also so flexible with the timing :) definitely recommend!”
“Aarika was absolutely amazing!! She was flexible and communicative through our entire last-minute planning process. She sent daily progress updates and photos of our sweet boy smiling and having so much fun (and getting lots of pats, which he loves!!) We will absolutely be booking with Aarika again! :)”
“Samantha was such a great sitter that words cannot describe what a perfect sitter AND PERSON she is. Her daughters, Nova and Ivy, also gave lots of love to our Jenny; Ivy, age 2, said after hugging and kissing Jenny, “You can leave Jenny with us any time, we’re not that busy.” Jenny was returned to us looking (and smelling) better than when we left her off with the Johnsons; their dog, Groot, was a wonderful playmate for Jenny, AND Groot and Jenny eat the same dig food, Farmers Dog, and they both love it. 🐶🐶😎😎🦮🦮”
“I am so glad we found Carmen! We left our dogs in her care during our recent spring break. I have to say that from our initial meeting I knew she would be a great fit for our energetic dogs. Her home has a huge fully fenced yard that my dogs thoroughly enjoyed. Carmen sent a ton of photos and updates throughout the week. She even took the dogs to a river nearby that they could play in. My dogs were super happy about that I’m sure. Carmen and her family were super great. My dogs had so much fun they were a bit sad to come home ? Can’t wait to book our dogs again. Thank you Carmen for the awesome care and for being so flexible with scheduling. I really appreciate it!”
“Monica is the best! Juniper has stayed with Monica and Scott multiple times now- and they are reliably great. Super communicative and detailed with lots of photos to let us know how things are going. Juniper has a fun time going on walks with Monica and we love that she works on introducing her to new people and pets and experiences. Keeps us at ease when we can't be with her that she is well cared for and having some fun new experiences too!”
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dog. You provided so many pictures to let us know that she was happy and having a wonderful time as a part of your family for the weekend thank you and I am giving you a five star rating because you are worth every star.”
“Sola and Kevin were outstanding. They were friendly, confident, and knowledgeable. We immediately felt comfortable leaving our boy in their care. They provided an update and photo and he was treated like a member of their family. He was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. We'll definitely be booking them again in the future! Highly recommend Sola and Kevin.”
“Kyla and Nicholas were incredible! They were flexible and easy going with drop-off and pick-up and they listened to all I had to share about our elderly pup. We could tell Ellie had been well taken care of and she seemed indifferent to leave, which speaks volumes! She’s usually rushing out the door to be home with us. Kyla and Nicholas really gave Ellie a home away from home!”
“Lana was great; very responsive and helpful. She was also very understanding when are arrival got delayed. If we need help again, I would book her especially since our dogs got along so well.”
“Berkeley had a great time staying at Linda's home while I was away on a conference for 3 days. Linda was organize and accommodating for Berkeley's medication on her paw. Linda took the time and shared with me her schedule for Berkeley's medication. She also recommended an approach on how to administer Berkeley's medication on her paw. Thank you very much for treating Berkeley as she was your own. I will definitely use Linda's services in the future.”
