“Second visit for us really built upon the first couple days and Nero has truly found a welcoming and safe place he can thrive. Blas and Allison spend time with him throughout the day and have really helped him become more social and comfortable. Walker fit right in and loves being there with his brother and feels very at home!”
“Emily and Eric are so great with my dogs. I'm very comfortable leaving my elderly pug and my very fearful rescue dog with them. They give me regular updates and send pics daily, as well as lots of feedback when I pick my girls up. So glad I found them. Highly recommended.”
“Our two dogs had a great weekend with Melissa! They loved being able to hang out outdoors in their own private space. They seemed very happy when we picked them up!”
“Angela gave good and kind care to our three cats for six days. We really appreciated her being available to us on pretty short notice and keeping us updated on the kitties! She’s a kind person and communicated well with us!”
“Our dog Rusty seemed to be very content and well cared for. Tony's place is a very nice country place, well off the road, with a large grassy area and lots of big firs. We will definitely ask Tony for his help with Rusty next time we can't take him with us.”
“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!”
“Hailey and her family were so friendly, kind, and easy to work with. We met ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit, and Hailey was so thorough and asked great questions, which gave me a lot of confidence in leaving Willow with them. Willow had the best time while we were away. We will definitely book with Hailey again the next time we need a sitter.”
“We left our 15 year old Westie with Mary and her husband and we couldn't be more pleased. The pictures and comments she sent us showed him interacting with other dogs, or resting peacefully - seems like just the kind of week he would have asked for while we were away! I appreciate their dealing with all of my instructions for what he likes to eat and when, and the care they took regarding his medications. We will definitely use Mary again!”
“Chelsea and her family provided great care for our lab who is pretty shy around most people. She texted pics of him while we were away and gave us updates on how he was doing. Our pup enjoyed hanging out with their lab and playing with her kids. Our dog loves to play ball all day and her family did a lot of that with him. We really appreciated the extra attention he received from Chelsey and her loving family. We will definitely use her service again.”
“Brandi took great care of Henry the whole week he was there! She sent pictures and comments every day. We are so pleased with Brandy in every way! We will definitely use her again.”
“So glad that I found Kristen! She has a great set up for both overnight and short term stays. Her back is lovely and very secure. My Archie loved rolling and running in the green grass and playing with the other dogs. Although Archie gets along with all sizes of dogs, its nice that Kristen only takes small dogs; which puts everyone on the same level when rough-housing. Kristen truly loves dogs. Its so nice to leave Archie with someone I can trust”
“We met Annemarie and immediately knew she would be an amazing fit for are animals. We went to Maui for 8 days and she kept in contact with us the entire vacation away. We got videos and pictures from her which we all loved to see them enjoying her company. We came home to are house being spotless and a note upon her leaving. We will definitely be in contact with her for the family’s next getaway.”
“I rarely leave my fur baby with anyone. Linda & Robert were fantastic! Zoe was well cared for. The communication was exceptional. Very thankful for the love shown to my sweet girl.”
“Dana and Mark took very good care of our large puppy for several days. They were understanding of where he is developmentally. He was socialized, had great interactions and activities, and was safe the entire time.”

“Sierra was responsive, friendly and arrived on time for each of 3 walks we booked. She took good care of our senior dog, sent pictures and was in good communication. Much appreciated!”
“Jamie was a great communicator and had a calm energy around my cat that’s been dealing with some stress. I came back to a clean home and very happy kitty! Communication and photos throughout her stay were also consistent. Thank you Jamie!”
“Renata was a top quality house and pet sitter. She was communicative, leaving frequent updates. She was *very* tidy, leaving the house for us as clean as we left it for her. We were also delayed getting home and she offered to stay an extra while so our cat wouldn't be alone as long as she otherwise would have. We definitely plan to reach out to her for future excursions. 5 stars all around!”
About: I have taken care of a dog, a cat, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. I love walking long distances with my dog. I am also very good at reading animal body language and I know how to do all of the basic animal care necessities. I am currently working from home so I would have lots of time for walks and hikes and play. I will make sure your dog comes home happy and tired. I do have a golden retriever and our schedule that your dog would also follow unless they’re special needs is we wake up at seven am, we go outside to go potty, then feed them they play and rest then we go for a walk. We love our Whipple Creek 🌲❤️ Trail then we drive home and rest. Then later I give them their second feeding, take them out to go to the bathroom and take a small walk in our neighborhood before it’s time to rest and chill and head to bed. I live in a cozy gated apartment with my husband, Greg and my golden retriever. My husband works as a in-home caregiver and when he gets home he helps me out. He is also an animal lover, and if I am housesitting, he travels with me as well as my very friendly golden retriever. I promise as a married couple we will respect your house and environment we will also bring our own sleeping equipment and we don’t mind doing house chores.
“Janelle took amazing care of my cat! Lots of picture and video updates and went above and beyond with taking care of her and my place where she stayed. She’s very attentive and her love for animals is very apparent. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Kristin did a great job for coming to visit with our kitties while we were out of town. She fed them, visited with them, tended to anything that was needed. I'd definitely recommend her and would use her again.”
“Shauna was great with my two cats. On her drop in visits she respected the very shy personality of one of my cats, and gave lots of love to my other more people loving cat. I especially appreciated the care she took with my asthmatic cat, to do her best to give him his medicine even when he was a little difficult.”
About: I have my own dogs and I’ve watched my families dogs as well. I’d say I definitely have experience in taking care of them so it’s not a worry. I’m a full-time student with availability Sunday through Tuesday. My schedule is limited, but I’d love to spend time caring for your furry friends! I offer lots of play time and one on one time with your pets. I’ll keep them safe, fed, and most importantly have fun 💖
“Rachael was great. She took care of our two cats over the July 4th long weekend and did an excellent job. We received updates after each visit (with photos) and the cats looked healthy and well adjusted upon return. She even brought our trash bin back into the garage. I would recommend and use Rachael's service again.”
“Taurie sat for our cat over the holidays and we are extremely happy. Our cat was happy and the house was completely clean when we arrived home. We would definitely hire Taurie again.”
“I gave Claire a very involved, complicated assignment with multiple types of critters to care for and she did a great job. She handled some unexpected complications very well and with plenty of good communication. I'll be asking her back!”

“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.”

“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!”
“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.”
“Tanaisa was amazing! I had a last minute need for some doggy daycare and she took my dogs for the whole day without hesitation. They looked like they had a great day. I’d gladly book her again!”
“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!”
“We are so lucky to have found Pamela! Great communication from beginning to end. She took amazing care of my Benny and was kind and patient with this new experience! 10/10 Great job! We will schedule with Pamela again soon!”
“Kelsey provided top-notch care, keeping me updated with photos and messages throughout the day. It was clear that Hazel was in good hands, receiving plenty of love and attention. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“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.”
“Brandi and her husband took care of Sparky and Remi really well. I’m glad they played together whole time with Brandi’s pup, Nala. We definitely will request another daycare service from Brandi if we need!!”
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.
“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! :)”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors who need extra love and patience. I have experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Over the years, I’ve helped with basic training, administering medications, and supporting pets with special needs. My approach is gentle, consistent, and reliable, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cuddles on the couch, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a full-time student, but I keep my schedule flexible to make plenty of time for pet care. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, with slightly less flexibility on Mondays. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or playtime, I truly enjoy caring for pets and always make time to give them the attention and love they deserve. I have a secure fenced yard and one friendly dog who love having new friends to play with. Pets in my care are always supervised, and I’m happy to crate your dog if needed for comfort or routine. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Your fur baby will always be treated like part of the family in my home.
“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!”
“James takes very good care of your furry friends. My dog, Hal, had all his needs met while I was out of town. I was periodically updated with how the doggy care was going, including photos updates. Will be returning to James dog services in the future and referring to friends/family. Thank you James.”
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!

“Brie is the exact type of person you'd want to care for your pet. She is attentive and intuitive to our little guy's needs as they chang from day to day. Our dog is so much happier on the days he gets walks, play time, and snuggles from Brie. She is awesome!”
“My dog is a little timid with new people, but Renata takes such good care of him! She’s patient and kind and I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with him. She’s reliable and great with communication. Highly recommend her, especially for nervous/shy puppers. 🩵”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life - growing up with cats and dogs instilled a deep love for animals that eventually led me to professional pet sitting in 2017. I spent five years as a trusted sitter in Portland, OR and nearly three years living in Bali, where I continued caring for animals and fostering strays in need. Pet and house sitting allows me to combine my nomadic lifestyle with my passion for animal care. I get to provide excellent care for your pets while staying connected to the fur babies I’ve always had in my life. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for weekday and weekend sits. I’m active and love taking dogs on hikes and adventures, and I’m equally happy spending quality time with cats who prefer cozy companionship. I’m highly organized and responsible. I’ll follow your care instructions to the letter, whether that’s administering medication, maintaining routines, or honoring your pet’s unique personality and needs. I work remotely with an extremely flexible schedule, which means I can be home with pets throughout the day. I’m not tied to an office or rigid hours. I structure my work around the animals I’m caring for, not the other way around. This makes it easy to accommodate morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding times, medications, or just keeping them company while I work. Whether your pet needs multiple daily walks or prefers a consistent routine with lots of companionship, my schedule allows me to provide exactly what they need. My approach is simple: I treat your home like my own and aim to leave it better than I found it. I take this responsibility seriously. Whether that’s keeping things tidy, watering plants, bringing in mail, or just making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. With your pets, my goal is to create stability and build trust. I stick to their routines, respect their boundaries, and give them the consistency they need to feel safe and cared for. Whether they’re anxious about you being gone or they adapt easily, I’m there to make sure they feel loved and secure until you’re back.
“Lizette is great, she’s very trustworthy, friendly, punctual, very responsive and took great care of my Ellie. She followed all the instructions I sent her and made sure to send me lots of pictures on their walks which I really appreciate! I will book with her in the future for sure 🫶🏻 thank you Lizette”
“Rylee is fantastic. I can’t recommend Rylee highly enough. She walked my dog, and he absolutely lights up when he sees her — tail wagging, full-body wiggles, the whole package. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and dogs pick up on that instantly. Rylee is reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. She paid close attention to his needs and quirks, and treated him like her own. It’s one thing to have a dog walker — it’s another to have someone you trust completely with your four-legged family member. That’s Rylee. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, professional, and genuinely exceptional at what she does, look no further. I was lucky to meet her, and anyone who hires her will be too.”
About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).

About: I’ve cared for animals for several years and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have hands-on experience caring for my own pets, including three ferrets, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to an animal’s individual needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow your pet’s routine to help them feel at ease.

About: I've taken care of animals of almost every kind for most of my life, both professionally as a Veterinary Technician for more than 15+ years as well as personally with my own pets, which I've had all my life. I truly love animals and have dedicated my life to helping and caring for them and even plan on attending Vet School. I have fostered countless animals, both dogs and cats, as well as more than 35 bottle-fed kittens. I have experience with just about every kind of pet and even those that are senior or those with special requirements such as medications, special diets, and subcutaneous fluid and physical therapy. I have a great deal of experience with animal behavior and have worked with many difficult and even aggressive animals. I currently work on a full-time basis, so I will have plenty of time throughout the week and weekends to dedicate to caring for the most precious members of your family!

I strive to ensure that your pet continues to feel safe and cared for when I'm in their home. I perpetuate a quiet, calming presence which most animals respond to positively. I will do everything in my power to ensure your pet's wellbeing and happiness, while still accomplishing everything that has been asked of me by my client. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own!

I have a fenced yard in the back and a whole 5 acres of roaming land and a doggo to keep your company and show em the lay of the land.
About: I'm passionate about caring for animals and ensuring your home is guest-ready upon your return. My specialty is multi pet house holds. My goal is to spoil your animal friend following your specific instructions, whether that means lots of playtime and attention or a calm and quiet stay. Having my own amazing pets for many wonderful years, I understand the importance of love and respect in animal care. I can follow instructions and strive provide the same level of care you do. Whether you have a young or old companion, I'm committed to their comfort and happiness. I have extensive experience as a pet and house sitter for many years. I'm known for my detailed-oriented approach and ability to work with animals of all temperaments. I'm always happy to accommodate any special needs or routines. I will feed your sour dough starter. Additionally, I'm flexible with long-term rates and can help with pet supply shopping or consulting. I’m available for round the clock care or daily walks, and hour is best for an active dog but if we have an hour forest hike we don’t count the driving time. I have a fenced yard and wood floors, and a big cushy rug next to the heater. My area is great for taking long walks.

About: Had dogs my whole life. Mines a coward and we'd need to check that he gets along with yours first, he'll get bullied if I'm not careful, the poor thing I stay home all day and spend as much of my time as possible outside. Your dog may come back muddy though, the messier you get the more fun you had and all! I am home all day with eyes/ears on the pets nearly constantly. I also spend so much time in environments that encourage explorative play and will keep most dogs too busy to get bored and act out in the first place. If a pet did act out, there's more than enough space in my place to separate animals and allow them to decompress. If at your place, mine is kennel trained for the same idea.
About: I have my own dogs and I’ve watched my families dogs as well. I’d say I definitely have experience in taking care of them so it’s not a worry. I’m a full-time student with availability Sunday through Tuesday. My schedule is limited, but I’d love to spend time caring for your furry friends! I offer lots of play time and one on one time with your pets. I’ll keep them safe, fed, and most importantly have fun 💖

“Second visit for us really built upon the first couple days and Nero has truly found a welcoming and safe place he can thrive. Blas and Allison spend time with him throughout the day and have really helped him become more social and comfortable. Walker fit right in and loves being there with his brother and feels very at home!”
“Our two dogs had a great weekend with Melissa! They loved being able to hang out outdoors in their own private space. They seemed very happy when we picked them up!”
“Our dog Rusty seemed to be very content and well cared for. Tony's place is a very nice country place, well off the road, with a large grassy area and lots of big firs. We will definitely ask Tony for his help with Rusty next time we can't take him with us.”
“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!”
“Hailey and her family were so friendly, kind, and easy to work with. We met ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit, and Hailey was so thorough and asked great questions, which gave me a lot of confidence in leaving Willow with them. Willow had the best time while we were away. We will definitely book with Hailey again the next time we need a sitter.”
“We left our 15 year old Westie with Mary and her husband and we couldn't be more pleased. The pictures and comments she sent us showed him interacting with other dogs, or resting peacefully - seems like just the kind of week he would have asked for while we were away! I appreciate their dealing with all of my instructions for what he likes to eat and when, and the care they took regarding his medications. We will definitely use Mary again!”
“Chelsea and her family provided great care for our lab who is pretty shy around most people. She texted pics of him while we were away and gave us updates on how he was doing. Our pup enjoyed hanging out with their lab and playing with her kids. Our dog loves to play ball all day and her family did a lot of that with him. We really appreciated the extra attention he received from Chelsey and her loving family. We will definitely use her service again.”
“Brandi took great care of Henry the whole week he was there! She sent pictures and comments every day. We are so pleased with Brandy in every way! We will definitely use her again.”
“We met Annemarie and immediately knew she would be an amazing fit for are animals. We went to Maui for 8 days and she kept in contact with us the entire vacation away. We got videos and pictures from her which we all loved to see them enjoying her company. We came home to are house being spotless and a note upon her leaving. We will definitely be in contact with her for the family’s next getaway.”
“I rarely leave my fur baby with anyone. Linda & Robert were fantastic! Zoe was well cared for. The communication was exceptional. Very thankful for the love shown to my sweet girl.”
“Dana and Mark took very good care of our large puppy for several days. They were understanding of where he is developmentally. He was socialized, had great interactions and activities, and was safe the entire time.”
“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
“Thank you, Todd, for taking such good care of our girl! The updates were very much appreciated. The pictures were nice clear pictures of Noel and you took care to take heed of every detail of her needs while she was with you. We will definitely look you up again if we ever need another dog sitter!”
“Tanaisa was an amazing host for my dog DK! She watched him for a week and I honestly think he was sad to leave her. Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be asking if she can watch my dog again in the future!”
