Personalized care for your dog or cat - Oakesdale
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Oakesdale
“Elena was great! We could definitely tell that our puppy was happy with her and honestly he probably didn’t want to leave! She sent plenty of photos and videos while we were away and always kept us updated on how he was doing. We will definitely be using Elena again!”
“Our dog recently spent a week with Crystal and her family, where Gus was well cared for, walked regularly, and was able to play with other dogs. Crystal was great to work with and very responsive along the entire way. Thank you!”
About: I’m from the Seattle area and I’ve been with Rover since 2018. In 2020 I got married to Micaiah my husband. When we married we added an additional cat to the family that belonged to him. So we have 4 cats. Before Rover I volunteered at PetsMart with Purrfect pals. One day a week I would help with cleaning, playing, and as a team member I helped cats find a furrrever home. My first cat in my life was when I was 8. I have always enjoyed pets and nature. So I decided to combine walking and dogs. Walks in the park or just around the block. I’m looking to be your new regular dog walker. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets!! I’m also a very detail and observant person so walks, sittings, and daycare services would also have a description of how your pet is doing. I chart any different behavior or eating habits along with health concerns. Updates with photos would be a priority. I'd also ask for the dog's vet info and emergency contacts. Have a paw-some day! My schedule is flexible. I usually find clients prefer weekday schedule M-F routine for walks. This is my full time job! My time is your time! I’m very safety cautious. I will keep updates and photos on the pet regularly during the day. I also request the pet’s medical information and their vet clinic. I’m pretty flexiable with scheduling. I try my best to fit in the schedule my clients want for their pets. Only days I need off for two hours are Sunday and Thursday. For security and safety I please ask for NO GUNS OR SUBSTANCES in house. I want to feel safe in the environment same goes for your pets. Thanks! I’m making this a full time job. M-F. I’m flexible with the scheduling. I’m open to picking up and dropping off clients dogs. Dogs will have one of us home with them. I have a fenced yard and five cats. I rescued two which are a mom and her kitten. My three cats are fun to spend my day with as well. I have a senior cat that needs daily meds and I try all I can to keep them happy and healthy.
“Courtney and her family loved my dogs almost as much as I do. Your dogs will be well cared for by Courtney and her family. I actually felt bad about taking my dogs from her kids when I left. They had all bonded during the stay. It was so sweet.”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
About: Hi, I’m Brian! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats around the house, and it’s a tradition I’ve proudly continued into adulthood. Sadly, both of my beloved pugs passed away over the last few years. Right now, it's just me and my cat, Vader, so I would absolutely love to welcome a canine (or another feline) presence back into my home! I work at WSU and live a quiet, peaceful life here in Colfax. Because my home is a kid-free environment and I spend a lot of my time here, your pet will get plenty of focused attention, companionship, and love. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets, so I am committed to treating yours like family - providing a safe, comfortable, and fun home away from home. I’d love to chat and see if I’m the perfect fit for your pet! I work at WSU so it's a short commute each day, allowing me to spend more time at home. My weekday evenings are pretty quiet. I sometimes go out on the weekends but would be quite happy staying home if there is pet-sitting to do. I have a large fenced yard. I have a large linoleum dining and kitchen area that can easily be blocked off where messes are easy to clean up. I'm totally fine sharing my bed and furniture with a pet. It's a quiet, kid-free house well suited for even the most nervous dogs.
“I would give Adrienne and her daughter 1000 stars if I could! They were so incredible from start to finish. They sent me updates on my pup and helped me to feel so at peace while I was out of town. Definitely book with them!”
About: Hi there! Im used to watching other people's pets and usually am requested to do such on base or off base. I also volunteered often for the humane society and owned several dogs myself. Military has made it more difficult to own a dog so taking care other dogs is a bit easier. If you need my number please shoot me a msg! (I dont have it listed since its linked to an account I forgot) My schedule is usually rather free most days now. If you let me know in advance I can happily give you my schedule which usually consist of appointments. There's a huge fenced yard in the back and the house is always cooled. They're no kids here either. I certainly would welcome a house tour if you feel inclined to.
“Amany was amazing! She was so flexible, as she agreed to a last minute booking with my pup. She also responded quickly and answered all my questions. My pup was so spoiled during the stay. He went shopping and was definitely part of the family during the stay. He was so tired from all the play time and extra attention, he fell asleep in the car on the way home. I will definitely use Amany again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
“Sophia was amazing! She asked a lot of questions and took plenty of notes to make sure my dogs could maintain as much of their home life as possible. She sent photos and feedback daily. She made my girls feel right at home in her home. She gave them all the cuddles and snuggles. She was very flexible about drop off and pick up.”
About: I would LOVE to spend time with your kitty or dog in the comfort of my home! ☺️ My husband and I live on 20 acres of land with our sweet dog Miso and loving cat Yoshi. I'm currently on a corporate work break so I have all day each day to care for your pet, and my husband also works from home. I have had a heart for animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets, including cats, dogs, fish, ducks, and now my eleven chickens! I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I have experience caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets, as well as watching over homes, and I always treat every pet and property with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and a great communicator — and I love sending photo updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, grooming, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’m happy to follow their routine and meet their individual needs. For pets staying with me, I offer a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where they can feel cared for like part of the family. I’d be so happy to help give your pet a loving, safe, and stress-free experience! I am currently taking a corporate career break so my schedule is flexible to spend all day engaging with pet(s)! My husband will also be able to engage with your pet(s) all day as he works from home. My home is a safe, clean, and comfortable place for pets to relax and feel cared for. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding instructions, potty breaks, playtime, quiet time, or any special rules that help them feel secure. I treat every pet like family and make safety, comfort, and communication my top priorities.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all animals and treat them all as if they were my own!

“Mariya was great! She communicated with texts and pic's and info about my dog's stay. She even clipped her nails (which isn't easy to do)! She might be a little more than others, but you can know they're in good hands with Mariya.”

“Great communication, visit summaries and photos! Will def hire again!!! Made our autistic child who had so much anxiety over a stranger caring for his pet feel so confident and happy with the updates and photos! A+++++ Service and Communication.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11. From my dog, to my family member's dogs, I've taken them on walks, given medication through pill pockets, fed them, brushed them, played with them, and given them all the love and attention they could ever want! I'm working part time, so I can give as much attention as possible to your pets! I'll be constantly in the area, so no need to worry about your pet being alone for too long. I’ll take the fur baby (or babies) on walks, play with them, love on them, and everything in between! Any need they could have, I can meet.
“Ashton and Shelby are responsible, caring and conscientious. They are great at communicating, and showed flexibility when I had a need for an extra visit. Knowing that they were truly caring for my animals helped me have the peace of mind needed to relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend them and will not hesitate to hire them again. My cats, rabbits, fish and plants were all well-looked after and I really enjoyed all the photos and updates!”
“Leah watched my cat who has complex medical issues on short notice after another rover sitter canceled last minute. This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous leaving my cat, but Leah did a wonderful job! She was able to get him comfortable with her almost immediately, which was genuinely shocking because he is very shy and wary of strangers. She was also able to come twice a day to provide him his meds. Leah was reliable, sent detailed updates, and went above and beyond to make him as comfortable as possible while we were away. I would highly recommend her, and plan to use her as a pet sitter again in the future!”

About: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.

About: As an experienced pet caregiver and lifelong animal lover, I understand that every cat has their own personality and routine.

About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child.

At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability for walks and drop ins! I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape!

“Mikayla did awesome with my 75lb Pyrenees mix. We did a meet and greet the day before and my dog got into just about everything but Mikayla was so understanding. I will definitely be booking with Mikayla again!”
“Tig is always so eager to go and hang out every time I drop him off and very tired when I pick him up. I can tell he just has a blast and I love that I don't have to worry about if he's safe or being enriched!”
About: My experience with dogs has ranged from personal ownership: (raised with two mixed breeds, and owned a WHIPPET for fourteen years), to boarding dogs, to working at a doggie daycare, and working for a dog walking company. Currently I am a stay at home mom to three kids- so I am home most of the time, including weekends. If I do step out, for errands, appointments, and such, I will absolutely make sure your pet has had enough walks/potty breaks. We have a fenced yard, and a great neighborhood for walking. My family, and I will work consistently to make sure your pooch feels comfortable, and loved. That said, for safety reasons I choose not to share photos of my kids on my profile page- regardless, they are great with dogs! My time is flexible in that I can work around my families schedule to provide boarding for your pet(s). We look forward to meeting you/them! I can provide care for your dog(s), by following the schedule you have set for them. I love walking, and playing fetch with dogs! My kids especially love helping out with fetch. 😊 Pet care works easily with my daily, and weekly schedule, because I am a stay at home mom, and therefore home most of the time. In my home pets will be taken care of first and foremost with lots of love, (pets/snuggles). Secondly, pets will be taken care of by administering their daily needs of food, water, snacks, (if they have any), and meds, (if they have any).
“We had our (10-year-old) puppy stay with Mango for a full day while we were in Spokane for the day. We dropped off our girl at 8:30am and picked her up at 10pm. I was a little worried about being too late and interrupting her night, but Mango was very accomodating. She communicated exactly what to do very well. Mango has 4 dogs of her own and did not require a meet and greet. My pup is usually great with other dogs, but dogs will be dogs so you can never know for certain! Mango was great though! She sent pictures of the dogs making their introductions to each other. It was great... sitting at a circle looking at each other- it looked like they were at an AA meeting. ;p Though my dog was only with Mango for the day I still received 4 photos of my dog. I love photos and updates- Mangos communication skills were great! Hoping to use Mango again some time in the future.”
“I felt comfortable leaving Roz in Kaitlin's care and much appreciated the frequent updates/pictures while Roz was with her. I used one of the pictures here as Roz's main profile picture. Roz came home a happy dog from Kaitlin's care.”
“Ayca was a wonderful dog sitter for our little poodle. Her calm demeanor was perfect for Molly and when we returned we could tell she had been in good hands. Thanks again for your kindness to our dog!”
About: I’ve taken care of a good amount of breeds from huskies to chihuahuas. I have loved every single one that it melts my heart every time i see them. I have a dog of my own and she’s a sassy silly lazy girl. I enjoy cuddling with dogs and just having fun with them. Going on walks, playing with toys, watching a movie and going through a roller coaster of emotions, i can do a lot with dogs! i can also ensure that i will provide as much goofy photos of possible if wanted (i will be taking because its funny and brings up the vibes) I work super early so I’m available for majority of the day. I’ll leave at the crack of the morning and come back in the morning still! i’m able to take all dogs out for a potty break in between work as well and just give them attention if that’s all they need! I treat my pets like my fur babies. they are my children so i talk to them as if i have teenage kids going through their moody phase. with other people’s dogs i can present my self calmly or energized depending on what they need. i love including them in everything if they want. like if they want to help me fold laundry, cook, clean, or just watch a movie then we are all doing it as a group.
“Whitney and her dogs welcomed my pup and helped her settle in, even though she was nervous at first. She also kept an eye out to make sure everything stayed safe, since the pup was just getting acclimated to being around small children. I really appreciated this help getting the dog socialized, since I very much want her to be a 100% kid-friendly dog as she grows up! Thank you!!”

“Just a fantastic experience! Was in town for a day for a conference & had to check out of my dog friendly hotel that morning, so needed doggie daycare. Rosalie was responsive, professional, attentive & provided a great space for Dalton very convenient to university campus, not to mention a friendly gentle dog of her own. Beautiful home, amazing (fenced in) yard. I really felt that Dalton was in great hands. Would highly recommend & would absolutely book again with Rosalie.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11. From my dog, to my family member's dogs, I've taken them on walks, given medication through pill pockets, fed them, brushed them, played with them, and given them all the love and attention they could ever want! I'm working part time, so I can give as much attention as possible to your pets! I'll be constantly in the area, so no need to worry about your pet being alone for too long. I’ll take the fur baby (or babies) on walks, play with them, love on them, and everything in between! Any need they could have, I can meet.
About: Took care of a natural history museum’s (Sternberg natural history museum) animals for a year. Did the same at a zoo (Rolling Hills Zoo) for 6 years. Studying wildlife biology / pre vet science with the end goal of being a wildlife veterinarian. I’ve personally owned pets all my life including many dogs, cats, fish, insects and lizards. Additionally I've been on Rover for years as a teen but my mother owned the account (if you’d like proof of that I can give my mothers account to see my prior experience) but I did all the sitting. Now that I’m an adult in college I plan on continuing it myself. During this summer I am just taking one summer online course and doing some volunteer odd jobs so I am extremely flexible and available. Whenever you prefer at whatever frequency you want I most likely can make it work. While I don’t offer pets in my home I am very familiar with managing pets in others homes. Just tell me what you and the pet is comfortable with and I will follow it. Additionally any messes that may happen I will make sure to clean throughly. My #1 priority is your pet’s health, mental and physical. However the very next priority is your home. When house sitting I’m more than aware of the need to be respectful of the space. I will do my best to leave it just as I found it, or even cleaner.
About: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.
About: I have two dogs of my own who are truly my babies, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. With two years of experience working at a dog boarding kennel, as well as time at a pet vaccine clinic, I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of needs. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and aim to provide the same loving, attentive care I would want for my own pets. I work at the hospital currently but have very flexible hours and can work around almost anything that is needed as long as I know a day or two in advance if possible :) I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible—feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any medications if needed. I make sure cats have a clean, calm environment and give them attention based on their personality, whether that’s interactive play or just quiet companionship.
“Allison has been walking my reactive pup, Bodi, for several weeks now. Because of Allison's gentle and calm demeanor, Bodi was comfortable with her right away. She has experience with reactive dogs and listened attentively to my specific instructions on how I manage Bodi's reactivity. She applies her experience, intuition and knowledge of dog body language to keep him under threshold. Allison is a treasure and I wish she could be Bodi's life-long dog walker!”

About: I’ve owed and been apart of the pet life for years! I have watched numerous family pets while they were away on vacation and that was always the best part of house sitting. I strive to keep your four legged friend happy while seeing and smelling the world. I’m working part-time and I’ll have plenty of time to keep your best friend busy while you are away. I am a marathon runner so staying active is what I love! I have a fur baby of my own and boy is he the king of the house! He gets special treatment with special food, supplements, we spend time training, and he’s always happy and healthy! I promise to treat your fur baby with the same love I provided my own.
About: I am a dog owner and have been for years. I have owned different breeds. As a dog owner it has taught me how to care for dogs. Thankfully I have a work from home job so I am home the majority of my time. When working I don't let the dogs in my office. I care for my pets by making sure they are fed and always have water and let the dogs outside to go potty frequently. I take my dogs on walks for exercise.
About: I've provided pet care for clients, friends and family my whole life. I love adventuring with my dogs ie walks, hikes, going to the beach. I use positive training and discipline techniques. I've taken dog training classes. I've cared for dogs of all ages and breeds. I love adding to my pack! I've a lot of availability! I have summers off and am often out enjoying the outdoors with my dog. I'd love to add to my pack! I have a large yard (unfenced). I keep new dogs on leash when outside. Lots of supervision and engagement. I do enjoy off leash play, but on case by case basis.
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve been volunteering, fostering, & working professionally with dogs, reptiles, & other animals for 10+ years. I've yet to meet a pup that I haven't loved, and vice versa. I have a high energy dog of my own, and I have previously worked at a doggy daycare & a grooming salon, so I have tons of hands-on experience with every dog breed and temperament you can imagine. My time at the doggy daycare gave me insight into animal body language, so I feel very comfortable handling multiple pups at a time as well as anxious dogs or ones that require some extra care. Animals generally seem to be much more at ease in the comfort of their own homes, so my main service is in home sitting or drop-in visits. I am also comfortable handling caged animals & reptiles. I have worked in a pet store & taken care of everything from fish and hamsters to birds & snakes. I also have two snakes & a lizard of my own. I am happy to travel to housesit, so feel free to send a request no matter how far you may be. I am also a photographer & am happy to include a photo package in your sit if that’s something that would interest you! I recently quit my job to spend two months volunteering at a wildlife sanctuary in South America, so I currently have all the time in the world for your pets, & I couldn’t imagine a better way to spend this period of free time than with animals. I do my best to emulate your pet’s usual schedule in your home. If I need to leave for any period of time & can’t take your pup with me, I’d leave them however you normally do. My goal is to cause as little stress as possible so I do my best to stick to the routines they are already used to.
About: I’ve always had a lot of animals growing up. I love all animals. Teaching dogs basic manners and taking care of them. I am organized and very attentive. I work part time and am very flexible. I can change my schedule to work for you ans your needs as I make my own schedule. I have a fenced yard, and can use a crate if needed. I can also come to your home and take care of them there.
“My dog was happy, and I'm happy. My dog had to be home alone for 13 hours a day for a week. She would have been so lonely and destroyed the house. It was such a relief to know she was going to get some love mid day. After a week of Mango walking my dog; I noticed she had better leash manners. Which was a huge bonus.”
About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child. This included staying over, walking, feeding, training and playing with not just dogs, also goats and chickens too! At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability for walks and drop ins! I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape!

“Elena was great! We could definitely tell that our puppy was happy with her and honestly he probably didn’t want to leave! She sent plenty of photos and videos while we were away and always kept us updated on how he was doing. We will definitely be using Elena again!”
“Our dog recently spent a week with Crystal and her family, where Gus was well cared for, walked regularly, and was able to play with other dogs. Crystal was great to work with and very responsive along the entire way. Thank you!”
“Courtney and her family loved my dogs almost as much as I do. Your dogs will be well cared for by Courtney and her family. I actually felt bad about taking my dogs from her kids when I left. They had all bonded during the stay. It was so sweet.”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
About: Hi there! Im used to watching other people's pets and usually am requested to do such on base or off base. I also volunteered often for the humane society and owned several dogs myself. Military has made it more difficult to own a dog so taking care other dogs is a bit easier. If you need my number please shoot me a msg! (I dont have it listed since its linked to an account I forgot) My schedule is usually rather free most days now. If you let me know in advance I can happily give you my schedule which usually consist of appointments. There's a huge fenced yard in the back and the house is always cooled. They're no kids here either. I certainly would welcome a house tour if you feel inclined to.
“Amany was amazing! She was so flexible, as she agreed to a last minute booking with my pup. She also responded quickly and answered all my questions. My pup was so spoiled during the stay. He went shopping and was definitely part of the family during the stay. He was so tired from all the play time and extra attention, he fell asleep in the car on the way home. I will definitely use Amany again!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
“Sophia was amazing! She asked a lot of questions and took plenty of notes to make sure my dogs could maintain as much of their home life as possible. She sent photos and feedback daily. She made my girls feel right at home in her home. She gave them all the cuddles and snuggles. She was very flexible about drop off and pick up.”
About: I would LOVE to spend time with your kitty or dog in the comfort of my home! ☺️ My husband and I live on 20 acres of land with our sweet dog Miso and loving cat Yoshi. I'm currently on a corporate work break so I have all day each day to care for your pet, and my husband also works from home. I have had a heart for animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets, including cats, dogs, fish, ducks, and now my eleven chickens! I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I have experience caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets, as well as watching over homes, and I always treat every pet and property with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and a great communicator — and I love sending photo updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, grooming, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’m happy to follow their routine and meet their individual needs. For pets staying with me, I offer a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where they can feel cared for like part of the family. I’d be so happy to help give your pet a loving, safe, and stress-free experience! I am currently taking a corporate career break so my schedule is flexible to spend all day engaging with pet(s)! My husband will also be able to engage with your pet(s) all day as he works from home. My home is a safe, clean, and comfortable place for pets to relax and feel cared for. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding instructions, potty breaks, playtime, quiet time, or any special rules that help them feel secure. I treat every pet like family and make safety, comfort, and communication my top priorities.
“Mariya was great! She communicated with texts and pic's and info about my dog's stay. She even clipped her nails (which isn't easy to do)! She might be a little more than others, but you can know they're in good hands with Mariya.”
