“Jena & her family were absolutely amazing! They cared for my quirky 6 year old labradoodle for a week while I was on vacation & I can’t imagine a better experience. Bailey was treated as a member of the family & was clearly happy as a clam! Will definitely use Jena again!”
“Mike was a true gift during a very emotional and busy time. With family in town for my father’s funeral, I needed a peaceful place for my dog Bo to stay for a few days. Mike and Shari welcomed him into their beautiful, woodsy home—with picture windows that Bo immediately wanted to look out, and a calm, comforting vibe. When I picked him up at the end of his stay Bo was a relaxed and happy dog! Thanks guys!”
“Bailey & Kyle took good care of our puppy. We started with a day long visit, then scheduled an overnight stay and graduated to a week long stay. She stays busy playing and comes home happy and tired.”
“Kaela treated Theodore like her own! He had so much fun there and came home completely pooped. She sent me pics and updates throughout his stay and it helped put me at ease. She is great!”
“Great guy, no complaints! His dogs play well with others and the house is nice. He kept in good communication and sent pictures of my dog during the stay, would re-book and recommend him to others!”
“Dani was great. It is never easy leaving your dog somewhere new, and Dani made us feel very comfortable with doing that. We will definitely use her in the future. Thanks for taking care of Bailey!!”
“Luna had a great time with Jennifer’s family and their other pets. They are quick to communicate and flexible with accommodations. We quickly rebooked after her first stay and would highly recommend!”
“Anita was really wonderful with our shih tzu Hunter. She gave him lots of individual attention and was careful to follow our instructions. She kept in contact with us frequently via text, sending status reports and candid pictures of him as he went about his day. She has several cats and two dogs and he did very well with all of them. It was helpful that during our initial meet-n-greet she introduced herself to him first outside her home. Then we went inside and she gave him ample time to spend in the environment with her pets. Once he came over for his actual stay he settled in quite nicely and had a great time. Anita was lovely to work with and we'd definitely send Hunter to her again.”
“Nathan and Roxana are really take good care of my dog, they took him outside play. Made big dinner and breakfast for him. My dog and their dogs has been good friends already. Definitely use them again and recommend to others. Very very devoted people.”
“Jamie was great! She was communicative, responsive, and my dog was so happy and so tuckered out after such a fun weekend when I picked her up. Truly cannot recommend highly enough.”
“Thank you, Colin, for taking such good care of Scout. Scout was happy and relaxed when I picked him up and in the daily photo updates. It’s obvious Colin cares deeply for animals and made sure his time with Scout was packed full of park adventures. 10/10 would recommend and will book with Colin again.”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and I really appreciated that she required a meet-and-greet beforehand with her own dogs. It showed me that she genuinely cares about the well-being and safety of every dog in her care—not just filling bookings. She came up with a thoughtful plan to make sure my dog would be comfortable and safe with the other dogs, which gave me so much confidence leaving him with her. Throughout his stay, Jennifer was friendly, communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates that really put my mind at ease. I could tell my dog was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Kristin was great to work with and she was very reliable and happy to have our dog in her home. She was very responsive and worked with us on any special needs for our dog. Kristin sent us pictures during the visit and kept us updated and was great about flexible drop off and pick up. We will definitely be using her again soon!”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Annmarie took wonderful care of our dog. We received several photos, videos, and other updates during our dog's stay. I also appreciated that she took the time to meet our dog before our trip”
“Lindsey and her beautiful family took such great care of our pup for a few days! We loved the pics and updates while we were away, we can’t wait to book with Lindsey again.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows just how important it is to leave your pup somewhere that feels like home. When I look for a sitter myself, I want peace of mind—knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having a great time. That’s exactly what I offer to you and your dog. My partner and I share our home with our happy, high-energy 2.5-year-old male pup, who we raised from a puppy. He’s super social and always ready to help new dog friends burn off some steam—seriously, he’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime! My partner also grew up breeding miniature English Bull Terriers, so between the two of us, we’ve got years of hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs. When you come to pick up your dog, you won’t have to wonder how it went—you’ll know they were in good hands. Happy, tired, and well-loved—just how it should be. Pet care is built right into my daily life. I work from home, so I'm around all day to give your dog the attention and care they need. I take a midday break to walk my dog 1.5–2 miles, and your pup will be right there with us, getting exercise and fresh air. After work, we go for another walk and spend time playing fetch in the yard. With our fenced yard and dog door, they can enjoy safe outdoor time throughout the day too. Your dog will be an active part of our home life and get plenty of movement, love, and attention from morning to night. 🐶 What you can expect: One-on-one attention: I only host one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full care and focus. Daily walks and outdoor play to keep them active and happy. A dog door to our fenced yard—they can come and go as they please (safely!). A calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can relax just like they would at home.
“What an awesome stay! Jesse was very kind and loving towards Poppy. I was very worried for various reasons, and he understood and kept me up to date with Poppy’s stay. And of course, Checkers was an excellent play partner for Poppy. Will definitely be returning!”

“Katey was wonderful! She took great care of my cat, so much so that I'm not sure Starfall wanted to come home. :) She updated me with photos and videos, and was very attentive to Starfall's needs. She's very friendly and easy to work with. I plan on having Starfall stay with her in the future!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens. I’m comfortable with everything from feeding and walking to playtime, basic care, and keeping up with each pet’s normal routine. I genuinely love animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own while they’re in my care. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule! I’m available in the mornings and on weekends for walks, drop ins, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get plenty of love and care while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all personalities and will always follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, crates, and routines. I know every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“I had the best experience! Autumm was very caring and tentative during pet sitting my cat. She was also good with communicating while visiting my pet. I truly recommended. Thank you ?”
“Great pet sitter! She did an amazing job during her drop-in visits with my cats and provided good pictures with her updates. Would definitely use her services in the future.”
“To our relief, Alisha was available during the Christmas holidays. Our regular sitter was out of town and recommended her highly. Alisha braved terrible weather to drop in and care for our kitty. We’re grateful for her reliable service.”
“Brian did a great job checking in on our dogs! We were gone on a day trip and just need someone to stop bye and let the dogs out. He handled them very well, took pictures and let us know everything was okay. We will definitely we reaching out in the future 💗”
About: What sets me apart is my combination of lifelong hands-on experience and professional knowledge of animal care. I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have always shared my home with cats. Growing up, my family bred our dog, and I helped raise and potty train the puppies before they went to their forever homes. That experience taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement from an early age. Today, I’m a high school Animal Science teacher, where I teach students about animal health, behavior, welfare, and responsible care. I enjoy working with dogs of all ages, especially reinforcing good manners and basic training. Friends and family often ask me for help with training their dogs, and I love helping build confidence through positive reinforcement. I’m also experienced administering medications and following detailed care instructions, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with special medical or daily care needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, an adult dog who loves adventure, a senior who prefers a slower pace, or a cat who enjoys a calm companion, I’ll provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos. Since I’m a teacher on summer break I have lots of weekday availability right now. I have very flexible availability, if you don’t see the time/days you need on my schedule, don’t hesitate to reach out and ask. I have a fenced in yard and an XL wire kennel in a calm area your furry friend is welcome to use. My dog, Lady, is very sweet and gets along really well with other dogs (even her grumpy old cousin). She loves playing with others, but I can keep her separated as needed. My cat, Mister, he is okay with other dogs coming over and just hangs out in his own space until he can trust the new doggo. I will treat your pet with the love and care I give to mine. I will follow any rules, commands, and training practices that you use with your pet. I use force-free, reward-based training to build clear communication, trust, and reliable everyday behavior. I have experience with gentle leaders, no-pull harnesses, and structured collar systems when appropriate for safety and handling. I can help with: * Loose-leash walking & pulling * Leash reactivity / frustration * Basic obedience (sit, down, stay, recall) * Recall in distracting environments * Impulse control & leash manners My approach is tailored to each dog’s temperament and focuses on real-world success and consistency between sessions. I also make sure to review each pet’s profile so owners don’t have to repeat information. For severe aggression or complex behavioral cases, I’ll communicate honestly if a certified behaviorist may be a better fit.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was a child living on a farm- dogs, cats, horses, chickens, rabbits, fish, and even plants! I have a deep sense of care for animals and living things, and will nurture and attend to your loved ones’ needs while you are away. I have a one year old chocolate Lab named George who gets along great with other dogs and is polite and respectful with cats. He comes with me on overnight stays and walks, but can stay in my truck for drop-in visits if you prefer. I can take your dog on long walks or visit dog parks during the day and give them plenty of playtime and attention. Available for drop in feeding visits, walks, or overnight stays. I am available to drop by or stay overnight in client’s homes. I have a pickup with a canopy to transport your dogs to the dog park, and have access to a private beach. Comfortable with large breeds, leash training and working with behavioral issues. Let me know what your pets need and I will be happy to accommodate.
“Aeja did an incredible job with our drop-in visits! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of our dogs. We loved receiving updates and photos, and it was obvious our pups were happy and comfortable with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book with her again! 🐾💙”

“Very pleased with Nate and Roxana’s care for my girl! She was excited and anxious and came home and crashed!! Tired girl from group okay. It was a first daycare experience and she did so great. Appreciated all the pictures and updates. Very responsive in a timely manner. I was put at ease since I was a little nervous leaving her. Great set up/property for the doggies as well! Will be booking again!”
About: -->PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BOOK<-- *I have 2 indoor cats (extremely friendly with dogs/cats) and they love to play with the pups. Make sure your pet is friendly with them too ^^ *If this is your first time with me please let's set up a Meet and Greet so you can meet me and my pets and make sure we are a good fit for your pup!! (I don't take new pets without a previous meet and greet, unless is an emergency case) My priority is to keep your pet safe, comfortable and fully entertained while you are away. Walks around the lake in our neighorhood surrounded by nature are a must do in our daily check list (sometimes we even take them to the mall to socialize and get free treats lol) As a pet sitter I'm offering house & pet walking/sitting opportunities to families (I'm willing to travel farther and pick up them by myself)! I have aided many friends & family members in keeping their pets safe to keep their stay-away stress free! I have years experience with dogs and cats. Feel free to DM for more details or if you need a better deal for long-term boarding 😊 I'm currently at home 24/7. My pets and I are used to wake up at 5:30 sm in the morning for the first "Potty Time" Breakfast between 7-8 am. Walks after midday, naps when/if they are tired. Dinner at 5 pm Generally I take my pets out for potty 3 times a day or when they ask me for. Every dog has their own personality so feel completely free to tell me their routines ❣️❣️(feeding time, potty hours, allowed or not on bed/couch etc) Max and Cleo are Great Pyrenees, 2 extremely gentle giants that love to play and take care of any kind of animals (they are very calm but they love to bark at the begging, they get tired easily after some minutes of play time). In the other hand, Kai is a medium size old doggy, he gets very excited with new pets but a few minutes later he just ignore them and likes to go back to take long naps on the couch. I have 2 friendly indoor cats, they mostly spend the day sleeping inside the bedroom or playing with the dogs from time to time.

“Great day for the dogs, we received pictures and were kept up to date how the girls were doing. We were late picking them up but James is very accommodating, would love to book with him again.”
About: I have had many types of animals my whole life! Dogs, cats, opossum, Guinea pigs, horses and a coyote pup. I treat animals like family members & give them lots of love and attention. I am retired so when I am dog sitting, I will be home the whole time. I give my dog all the attention she needs & I will do the same for yours. I only sit 1 dog at a time so that way your fur baby won’t ever feel left out. I have a fully fenced back yard where my little Morki/Shih Tzu loves to run. My husband & I make sure one of us is holding our little dog if someone comes to the door. We have dog seat belts if we need to take the dogs for a ride. I have a safe place to walk the dogs where we can stay on a sidewalk. No dog will be more cared for.

“An exemplary professional and person! Kaylee and her family were warm, welcoming, and made themselves available at every turn. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to any friend or family”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life mostly big dogs and some small dogs, so I can handle what ever is thrown at me. On top of that I own my own 3 year old husky which I got when he was 8 weeks old and trained him. If you know dogs you know huskies which are a hand full themselves. I am an open book completely. I am a server am my shifts are very flexible, depending on how my scheduling goes here I may or may not need to serve as much. If I am coming to your home I would treat your animal and your home with the upmost respect, following your rules. I would take them on walks, a hike, the dog park, I would play with them and enrich them. Even in my own home I would do the same
About: I just recently moved to the Shelton area and have been working with animals my whole life. Your pets are my #1 priority and I always value safety the most. It’s important to me that your pet gets the care, exercise and attention that it needs on a daily basis safely. I live on a golf course with a lake so it’s the perfect area for your pet to get fresh air with a scenic view and plenty of nature to enjoy. I’m always open to new ideas with adventures you’d like your pet to go on or how you’d like your pet to be taken care of. I’ve worked with all types of dogs from elderly/disabled to aggressive giant dogs and puppies that just had surgery. I look forward to meeting with you and your fur babies and set up a meet and greet! It is my full time job so I take it as serious as possible. I love animals and will always give them the love and care they need My home does not have a fenced back yard so I will make sure anytime they leave the house they will be on a leash to keep them safe. I have a large shop where I spend most of my down time where they will have plenty of space to run around and get there zoomies out in a safe space. There are plenty of parks around me with water access at our lake and great walking trails/paths on the golf course where I live.
“Excellent service. Sonia has a genuine and special love pets. My baby Maltese Napoleon spent a day with her and when I picked him up he was happy and in a very good mood for a while after we got home. It was super easy to drop off and pick up. I will definitely bring my baby back even if I don’t need care because he even made new fur friends while he was there. Sonia also sent beautiful pictures throughout the day. Total peace of mind when my baby was on her care.”

There is ample indoor space as well for the dogs to get out of the rain. Tara obviously knows and loves dogs and we feel confident leaving our fur babies in her care. Thank you Tara!”

“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”
“Madisyn has been taking care of our dog Leo for several months. As witnessed from the photos she sends, he LOVES her! I come home to a contented and happy pet! Madisyn is also very respectful of our house and leaves it as she found it. We will continue entrusting Leo's care with her for months to come!”

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: I have been taking care of dogs from a very young age, and I have been a professional sitter and boarder for a little over 3 years now. I recently moved to the area and am looking to rebuild my clientele. I am an animal advocate who has spent a lot of time volunteering with different agencies to help find forever homes for abandoned fur babies, and working for programs that went out and helped the homeless get the right care for their pets. I have experience with hyper pets, shy pets, large and small. I love them all the same. Let me spoil your babies while you’re away, and take comfort in knowing that they are safe and loved with me.

I’m comfortable administering medications, learning commands in different languages, and working with pets of all ages and temperaments. I love enriching their lives through play, mental stimulation, affection, and activities that keep them happy and engaged, not just cared for. I run my own home stewardship business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be intentional about the time I spend with your pets. I’m an ideal fit for pets who are comfortable being home alone for up to 6 hours while I’m working.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 10 years, providing consistent, attentive care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering oral medications, light grooming such as brushing, and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra exercise, gentle care, or simply companionship. I am currently working 5 days a week, and will be available on my days off. I miss dog sitting/dog walking as a hobby and would love to start doing it again. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at my house, so I prefer to take care of the pets at the owners home. I would care for them by playing, taking them outside as needed, staying on a feeding schedule and possibly bathing if the owners request !
About: I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment. I’m patient, reliable, and always pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs gentle care, I adjust my approach to make them feel comfortable. Im currently working remotely and part time, so I have plenty of time to make pet care part of my daily routine. Great help for you and for me I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel relaxed and happy. I keep a consistent routine with regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and quiet rest periods. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and energy level, and adjust activities to fit their personality.

“Jena & her family were absolutely amazing! They cared for my quirky 6 year old labradoodle for a week while I was on vacation & I can’t imagine a better experience. Bailey was treated as a member of the family & was clearly happy as a clam! Will definitely use Jena again!”
“Mike was a true gift during a very emotional and busy time. With family in town for my father’s funeral, I needed a peaceful place for my dog Bo to stay for a few days. Mike and Shari welcomed him into their beautiful, woodsy home—with picture windows that Bo immediately wanted to look out, and a calm, comforting vibe. When I picked him up at the end of his stay Bo was a relaxed and happy dog! Thanks guys!”

It’s obvious Colin cares deeply for animals and made sure his time with Scout was packed full of park adventures. 10/10 would recommend and will book with Colin again.”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and I really appreciated that she required a meet-and-greet beforehand with her own dogs. It showed me that she genuinely cares about the well-being and safety of every dog in her care—not just filling bookings. She came up with a thoughtful plan to make sure my dog would be comfortable and safe with the other dogs, which gave me so much confidence leaving him with her. Throughout his stay, Jennifer was friendly, communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates that really put my mind at ease. I could tell my dog was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog sitter!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows just how important it is to leave your pup somewhere that feels like home. When I look for a sitter myself, I want peace of mind—knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having a great time. That’s exactly what I offer to you and your dog. My partner and I share our home with our happy, high-energy 2.5-year-old male pup, who we raised from a puppy. He’s super social and always ready to help new dog friends burn off some steam—seriously, he’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime! My partner also grew up breeding miniature English Bull Terriers, so between the two of us, we’ve got years of hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs. When you come to pick up your dog, you won’t have to wonder how it went—you’ll know they were in good hands. Happy, tired, and well-loved—just how it should be. Pet care is built right into my daily life. I work from home, so I'm around all day to give your dog the attention and care they need. I take a midday break to walk my dog 1.5–2 miles, and your pup will be right there with us, getting exercise and fresh air. After work, we go for another walk and spend time playing fetch in the yard. With our fenced yard and dog door, they can enjoy safe outdoor time throughout the day too. Your dog will be an active part of our home life and get plenty of movement, love, and attention from morning to night. 🐶 What you can expect: One-on-one attention: I only host one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full care and focus. Daily walks and outdoor play to keep them active and happy. A dog door to our fenced yard—they can come and go as they please (safely!). A calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can relax just like they would at home.
“What an awesome stay! Jesse was very kind and loving towards Poppy. I was very worried for various reasons, and he understood and kept me up to date with Poppy’s stay. And of course, Checkers was an excellent play partner for Poppy. Will definitely be returning!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“Taylor was seriously the best! I could tell that Frankie had the best time with her and her dog Rue. You can tell that she really loves animals and loves to spoil them! I didn't have to stress at all because I knew Frankie was having a great time on her own "vacation". She was great with communication and sent me the cutest photos of Frankie. Whenever I'm in the area, Taylor will be the first person I call if I need sitter again!”
