“Victor took care of my 4-month-old Labrador puppy, Ginger, for a full week while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Ginger is still very young—she isn’t fully potty trained or fully trained in general—so caring for her is truly a full-time job. Victor showed incredible patience, kindness, and dedication throughout. Ginger even ripped some of his dog’s toys, and he never once complained. He handled every challenge with understanding and care, and Ginger was clearly happy and well looked after. I’m extremely thankful to Victor and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pet.”
“I'm happy to trust my sweet little Havanese, Uuno, to Riitta's care whenever we are out of town. Riitta gives personalized, professional and loving care. I feel like Riitta's place has become like a home-away-from-home to my dog. Uuno is always happy to go there, which to me is the best proof that he has a genuinely good time at Riitta's care while the rest of the family is on vacation. If I had any doubt on that, it would be difficult for me to fully enjoy traveling. Riitta replies promptly and keeps us updated with beautiful photos and texting. I feel very fortunate to have met Riitta and highly recommend her!”
“Natalie is wonderful! As soon as we got there she made me and my girl comfortable. My dog is very perceptive with people and animals. If she isn’t comfortable she won’t go near them. Immediately my dog was wagging her tail and happy to be there. Likewise, when we picked her up she was happy. While greeting us she kept going back to Natalie as well. I will definitely want my girl to stay with Natalie again. What a relief to find a loving compassionate caring home for my girl when we need one”
“Kali is simply amazing with animals of all kinds and filled with kindness. Our dog Rose has required careful monitoring and to be given chemotherapy medications and even required Kali to do an emergency vet visit. Kali is so skilled at ensuring pet health and safety even with complicated situations. Our dogs LOVE Kali. I’m so grateful to know her”
“Jenny took care of our neighbor's dog Willow for us when we were taking care of it and had to leave unexpectedly for 3 days, the boarding experience went very well and she was very thoughtful and asked good questions prior to the boarding. Willow had a great time playing with her dog and when I came to pick her up Jenny had Willow's crate all packed up with her things and ready for me, which I really appreciated. Willow is a dog who can be anxious at times but it was obvious that she felt very comfortable with Jenny. We are pretty picky about who watches our pooches and are glad to have found someone in Gold Bar who we feel good about recommending or using for our own dogs.”
“Lisa provides our family with time away free from any worries about our dog Lucky. She truly loves caring for our dog, gives us ideas for training and fun outings, and communicates consistently and with fun details. We appreciate Lisa’s professional care and true love for animals and people.”
“Absolutely amazing. Our anxious boy Tango did amazing here. Maggie was able to board for us when our lined up sitter had to cancel 2 days before a cross country trip. Thank you guys so much for taking great care of our buddy”
“Sammy loves going to Xiaoshan and Xiuli’s place. He loves many walks and playing with toys. Despite being high energy, he always comes back tired and happy.”
“Rochelle and her husband were wonderful! Our pup loved them and their home the instant he stepped through the front door. He got lots of snuggles and adventures, and we got plenty of updates along the way which was incredibly comforting. There’s no doubt in my mind that Whispy can’t wait to come back for a visit!”
“Bethany and her family took such good care of our old pup. She was spoiled the whole time she stayed with them. We definitely will be re-booking with her in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Romy! She took excellent care of Uni and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Romy was reliable, communicative, flexible and treated our dog like her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”
“Hyeyoung and her family took great care of George! She sent great updates each day about George. Her photos are amazing! She made George look like a vogue doggy. I will 100% be rebooking with her!”
“Fiona was amazing with our dog, Milo. She was easy to communicate with, and flexible regarding pick up and drop off. She kept us updated about how Milo was doing while we were away. Highly recommend her.”
“Amanda is great and my dog loved playing with Amanda’s 2 pups. My dog had so much fun, was well taken care of and Amanda sent me pictures of my pup throughout the boarding. Home is very clean and her pups are very loved. Highly recommend.”
“Robin took fantastic care of our baby and she was excellent about keeping us updated on how he was doing. We will definitely use her again and I’d highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Somer and Thomas were so great. They helped us out of a jam by accepting a very last-minute boarding reservation for our senior Great Pyrenees. Rosalie stayed 3 nights and was very well taken care of. When we picked her up she was calm, happy, and tired. Somer seems very knowledgeable about dog care and behavior and she even picked up on a medical issue Rosalie has and kept her cool and comfortable through a hot few days. We very much appreciate it and would absolutely recommend Somer and Thomas for boarding.”
“Rebecca took care of grizzly just like her own. I can’t say enough thankful we were to leave Grizzly with someone so caring. We hope he can stay with Rebecca again.”

“Greetings from Gold Bar ~ This was our first booking with Jordan. She approaches animal care with true professionalism and a very friendly touch. We could tell by the photographs that Max [our aging kitty] was very content throughout our time away. Max is like a puppy-that-purrs. He needs the kind of companionship that dogs want but also his private napping time. Jordan intuitively understood his requirements. This resulted in a happy feline and relaxed owners!”

About: I have a cat and a dog and they are my life! I love all animals. They make me happy and less dippressed. I love love to be around all animals.

“Gypsie and Robby were great! My cat needed checked on once a day while I was on vacation. They were always on time, spent quality time with my kitty and sent multiple pictures!”
“I cannot even begin to explain how much of a lifesaver Rebecca was while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond in everything she did. I didn't worry about my kitty at all while I was gone because I knew she was in such good hands. She was super responsive and sent me lots of pictures of my girl so I didn't miss her quite so much. We will definitely be using Rebecca for our next vacation if she is available!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young child. I currently have a 7 year old chihuahua. My chihuahuas name is Toby and he is a rescue.

I will always provide my best attitude and give the animals the best experience while working with me. I am free 24/7 to care for animals.

I currently watch dogs and cats full time, while working on other small businesses. I have an unfenced yard, but will walk them on leash outside if needed.

About my yard Our yard is a rectangular shape with several trees and is fully fenced. Our home is two levels with the upper portion being all carpet. My plan would be to have your little one on the lower level when with us, even when sleeping. Our dog Harley is not allowed upstairs and he is crate-trained and sleeps downstairs also. My experience administering medication Yes I am as long as I am shown how to do that properly. I’m a stay at a home mom, with 2 kiddos doing school from home and other than errands and other short trips away from home, we are home the majority of the time.

She was very attentive and you can tell she just loves animals. I will definitely be using her as s regular sitter in the future, in fact Ive got her taking care of Oscar at our home this weekend!”
About: Hello my name is Jenny. I currently live in Gold Bar, but I am more than willing to travel to the Monroe area, as far East as Index. I grew up with pets my entire life, everything from goats to ferrets & everything in between. I can not remember a time in my life that I did not have some sort of pet around. I have a very flexible schedule as I am home full time. I am available everyday during the week & Saturday. I can be at your place as early as 6:00am and as late at 3:00pm. As of right now I am not able to watch your dog at my home or overnight stays at my home as our backyard fence is being repaired. With that being said I am more than eager to come to your home to watch your furry friend(s). I am open to coming over to do potty breaks, walks, small hikes or anything else that is needed. As of right now I do not have any dogs but I do have 3 cats, we are in the process of getting a dog from the Everett Humane Society. I believe every dog/animal deserves a home. Unfortunately the following pictures you will see do not contain dogs, they are my cats as I have lived in a apartment for the last 9 years that did not allow dogs. 6 months ago we moved into a 3 bedroom 1238 sq foot house, so the hunt for a dog/puppy is on. I can't wait to have a dog in my life again, be it one of my own or your dog(s). I am home at all times, which allows me to be able to spend the entire day/night with your pup. I am available Mon - Sat from 6:00am to 3:00pm. I have a fairly good size backyard that is completely fenced, when the pups need to go out someone is out there with them at all times. If it is an overnight stay, I do have a crate if they are crate trained.
About: I am genuine and very open to communication. I love pets and meeting them. I care for pets as they are my own providing safety, fun and loving environment. I work from home and I have a lot of free time. I have a big yard and I enjoy the company of pets. Walking and playing with them helps me as lot too! I have a small yorkie and a big fenced backyard.

About: I have had small dogs my entire life and recently lost my beloved fur baby after 18 wonderful years together. Caring for senior dogs has always been a meaningful part of my life. But, welcome all ages. I have extensive experience providing the extra love, patience, and care that older dogs need, including managing the challenges that come with aging. All of my dogs have lived beyond 15 years old, and I have personally experienced the many stages of senior care—from mobility changes and special routines to simply providing comfort, companionship, and a safe, loving environment. I understand that senior dogs require extra attention, and I treat every dog as a cherished member of the family. I currently work full time from home, which allows me to provide constant companionship, attention, and care throughout the day. Your beloved family member would never be left alone and would receive the same love, patience, and comfort that I have always given my own dogs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I would treat your dog as if they were my own. While I do not have a fenced yard, I provide a safe and supervised environment at all times. Your dog would always have my full attention and would either be right by my side or safely on a leash when outside. Their safety, comfort, and happiness would always be my top priority.
“Dawn was fantastic with Pepper! She took great care of her, and Pepper was happy and comfortable the whole time. Super easy to communicate with, and the scenic drive out to her place was a lovely bonus. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Our border collie Luna enjoyed every day with Melissa and her family! Melissa is super communicative and is eager to learn about what works best for you and your doggo. Melissa's three children loved playing ball with Luna and she loved all their attention! We highly recommend Melissa and family for your next doggie daycare/boarding.”

“Melodie was wonderful with Pepper! She kept us updated throughout the day and made us feel completely at ease. Pepper had so much fun and got lots of playtime and attention. We’d absolutely trust Melodie with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. The best review Pepper can give is that she came home happy, exhausted, and slept the rest of the evening!”

About: I am an experienced obedience dog trainer who wishes for a work-life balance helping animals!! Animals have been my passion throughout my life, ranging from reptiles, rodents, to dogs. My goal is to further expand my knowledge in dog training and to learn everything there is to help guide me into more opportunities working with furballs! Having animals of my own, as well as having many in the family, has given me experience with handling. This is where I have learned and practiced skills such as dog training, intervening with disputes, administering medicine, and much more. I also love the outdoors, so hiking is something I love to do with my dogs to burn out their energy. During my experience at ABC (Animal Behavior College), I worked with trainers where I learned techniques for impulse control, reactivity, puppies, and even some service dog training. I also worked with the behavioral specialist at the Everett Animal Shelter where I am provided a list of dogs to work with and make them more adoptable :) I am flexible most days!! I work a full-time job at the moment but have a mixed schedule between days and nights. This makes it easier to do drop-ins/walks during the weekend and then sitting at night during the week! I currently live in a camper with not a lot of room to host doggies here. However, I will be moving to Burlington area soon and will have a much bigger area to hopefully board overnight!!
“Robin helped us out by spoiling our dog Maya with lovely nature walks for a week. Robin was so kind and loving with Maya, and Maya was super excited to see her every day. I loved all of the pictures we received; seeing Maya that happy made our week. Robin genuinely cares for the animals she works with.”

I've never missed a feeding time for any of our pets. I make sure to feed our dogs in the morning and the night, or whatever schedule has been asked. But I have plenty of free time for playing with my animals. Well I love to walk so dogs always get enough exercise, and I make sure to groom my dogs monthly, and I make sure to feed all of my pets well enough.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young child. I currently have a 7 year old chihuahua. My chihuahuas name is Toby and he is a rescue. If you would like more information about my dog, please ask. I also have a resuce cat named Clyde who is 1 years old, who stays outdoors most of the time. I have great experience with walking dogs. I have always grown up with smaller dogs, such as chihuahuas. I recently had an internship at the wildlife rehabilitation center, and that taught me how to care for animals. I will always provide my best attitude and give the animals the best experience while working with me. I am free 24/7 to care for animals. I can provide a separate room for those dogs who are shy, or not friendly. I have an unfenced yard, but can take them out on leashed, or I have a leash that can be staked into the ground that can be used. I am available 24/7 to care for the animals in my care. I currently watch dogs and cats full time, while working on other small businesses. I have an unfenced yard, but will walk them on leash outside if needed. I can also crate if needed, or required from owner. We also can take dogs to the lake stevens dog park, to get out their energy.
About: I am an ER Veterinary Assistant of almost 10 years and Assistant Hospital admin that recently quit to stay at home with my daughters. I am medically trained and therefore properly able to respond to emergency situations as well as do the basics such as administer medications (oral and injectable) if needed. Due to my job, I am very capable of following strict written and oral instructions. I have reliable transportation and have very open availability. I am the proud parent of a rambunctious pup (and two kitties). No breeds or ages are off limits. I have references from work experience if you'd like to double check my reliability. I am available for drops ins and walks Saturday-Sunday and limited during the week. Sitting arrangements can be made during the week as well in advance. I have experience doing extended pet sitting stays for young and old pups. I am able to care for your pup however you would like. I am home all day, every day.

“Kali is simply amazing with animals of all kinds and filled with kindness. Our dog Rose has required careful monitoring and to be given chemotherapy medications and even required Kali to do an emergency vet visit. Kali is so skilled at ensuring pet health and safety even with complicated situations. Our dogs LOVE Kali. I’m so grateful to know her”
“Jenny took care of our neighbor's dog Willow for us when we were taking care of it and had to leave unexpectedly for 3 days, the boarding experience went very well and she was very thoughtful and asked good questions prior to the boarding. Willow had a great time playing with her dog and when I came to pick her up Jenny had Willow's crate all packed up with her things and ready for me, which I really appreciated. Willow is a dog who can be anxious at times but it was obvious that she felt very comfortable with Jenny. We are pretty picky about who watches our pooches and are glad to have found someone in Gold Bar who we feel good about recommending or using for our own dogs.”
“Lisa provides our family with time away free from any worries about our dog Lucky. She truly loves caring for our dog, gives us ideas for training and fun outings, and communicates consistently and with fun details. We appreciate Lisa’s professional care and true love for animals and people.”
“Absolutely amazing. Our anxious boy Tango did amazing here. Maggie was able to board for us when our lined up sitter had to cancel 2 days before a cross country trip. Thank you guys so much for taking great care of our buddy”
“Bethany and her family took such good care of our old pup. She was spoiled the whole time she stayed with them. We definitely will be re-booking with her in the future.”
“Somer and Thomas were so great. They helped us out of a jam by accepting a very last-minute boarding reservation for our senior Great Pyrenees. Rosalie stayed 3 nights and was very well taken care of. When we picked her up she was calm, happy, and tired. Somer seems very knowledgeable about dog care and behavior and she even picked up on a medical issue Rosalie has and kept her cool and comfortable through a hot few days. We very much appreciate it and would absolutely recommend Somer and Thomas for boarding.”
“Rebecca took care of grizzly just like her own. I can’t say enough thankful we were to leave Grizzly with someone so caring. We hope he can stay with Rebecca again.”
“The best! Cynthia cared for my dog as if he were her own, keeping me updated with thoughtful insights throughout. Really appreciate her level of effort and thoughtfulness! Highly recommend!”
“Tunyi was calm and wonderful with our dog. She made a special effort to encourage him to eat and sent many pictures and videos each day. Highly recommend!!”
“Peaches absolutely loved her time with Kelsey and her family! Kelsey was a fantastic communicator and kept me updated with pictures and videos of Peaches’ adventures with her girls. Thank you so much for welcoming her into your home!”
“This was my dog’s first boarding experience, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! They went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and at home. Communication was excellent—they responded quickly to any questions and kept me updated with regular messages and adorable pictures. It was clear my dog was having a great time and was well cared for. I feel completely confident boarding my dog with them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Finn enjoyed another great stay with Janin! We always love the updates, photos and videos she provides, and we feel so comfortable knowing Finn is in such great hands.”
“This was our first time using Christel, we loved how conveniently located she was when we booked. She was friendly and welcoming to Murphy. One of our favorite parts was receiving photos/video updates on how Murphy was settling in. Murphy clearly enjoyed the company of the other dogs and the opportunity to run and play while we were gone. We look forward to booking with Christel again!”
“Highly recommend Monica! Monica took amazing care of our dogs, Romeo and Leo, while we were on vacation. From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, responsible, and easy to work with. She kept us updated regularly with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that both Romeo and Leo were happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. When we picked them up, they came back healthy, relaxed, and in great spirits. What really stood out was how accommodating Monica was with our constantly changing travel schedule. Our trip got rescheduled multiple times, and she was very understanding and flexible, which we truly appreciated. We also loved that she only boards a small number of dogs at a time (just two), so they get plenty of attention and care. We’re so glad we found Monica and will definitely trust her again in the future”
“Dawn did a great job taking care of my dog, and she had a great time playing with her dog. Dawn, sent videos and pictures of the two dogs playing and sleeping. When I picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. I recommend her and will have my dog stay there again.”
