“Jesse was great with D'Art. He worked on some training and when I picked him up Jesse had brushed him out beautifully. I will not hesitate to book with Jesse again.”
“Annmarie was amazing with our boy!!!! He is a shy timid dog and she was so kind and patient with him!!! I got pictures and an update every single day. She truly treated him like he was hers, I will definitely use her again and I recommend her to anyone who needs a pup sitter.”
“Bailey, Kyle and their pets are wonderful! Our dog had a blast running around their yard, meeting new buddies (their 2 dogs) and exploring a new part of town. It felt like he had so much fun he didn't want to come home and I can tell he is missing playing with other dogs now that he is home. We're excited to have Bailey and Kyle in our network when needed as they obviously understand pet behaviors and exceeded our expectations!”
“Cale and his wife are fantastic. They took the time to get to know Scout at drop-off, asking thoughtful questions about her care and preferences. During Scout’s stay, we received frequent photos of Scout getting snuggles and walks on their property. And then at drop-off they shared keen observations and details about her stay. We would book again with Cale in a heartbeat.”
“Maggie had a great stay. I can tell she had a lot fun and was well taken care of. It was nice to pick her up and have her freshly bathed. The communication and pictures were great.”
“Jerrie is awesome!! We were in a bind last minute when our dog boarding plans fell through but Jerrie saved the day. I was able to do a meet and greet prior where my dog, Trowa, was able to meet the other sweet pups staying at Jerrie’s. Trowa instantly hit it off with the others and had lots of room to play and explore outside. Jerrie sent updates twice a day with tons of photos of all of the fun they were having which made us feel much more comfortable having Trowa stay somewhere else while we were gone. Jerrie is kind, caring, and so communicative, I definitely recommend reaching out to her for any of your furry friend needs!”
“Faye was great. Flexible with drop off and pick up times. Met us on the pickup with all the girl’s belongings ready to go. Really easy transitions. Provided updates and was very communicative. Thanks so much.”
“Highly recommend. They have a beautiful home with a nice, spacious backyard. Marianne and Josh are kind and have a lot of experience with dogs. With two sweet dogs of their own, my dog had built in companions while I was away. They are warm, welcoming, and sent lots of cute/funny pics & updates. Your dogs will be loved open arms. So grateful my dog could spend the holiday with such a thoughtful, warm, and fun family! Thank you so much for loving Chai!”
“I can't say thank you enough! Emily and Dean took good care of my senior dog while I got to have a much needed vacation and were even flexible to extend when trip complications arose. Communication was great and Bentley clearly enjoyed his time with their dogs. This was my first experience with Rover and having someone I didn't know take care of him. I was incredibly nervous but he was in good hands. I would definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Leanne was an amazing sitter for our pup, Maple, for a week. She was great at communicating and keeping us updated. Maple enjoyed her company, walks, and snuggles! I would 100% recommend Leanne and our family will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Kaylee is the best! We are so grateful for her. She provided excellent care and frequent updates. She also worked with our unpredictable schedule. We will continue to request her as long as she will have our wild and crazy fur baby. Thank you Kaylee!!!”
“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!”
“Kristin was a great sitter. She promptly communicated. She was attentive to Pippin’s needs including administering her medication. Pippin enjoyed her stay and playing with the other dogs.”
“Excellent sitter! We're thoroughly impressed and will definitely be in touch again. Lauren was wonderfully kind to our cat and gave us daily updates with pictures. Never felt so much peace of mind while out of town!”
“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“Jill could not be better. Our little dog was right at home with her. We had regular updates that made us feel great - knowing he was in such good hands was a load off. We will absolutely book with Jill again.”
“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“The boys loved staying here. They have a great home and the other pups they watch are all great with my boys. They get ouside and get out a lot of energy. My pups came home sleepy and happy! 10/10 recommend.”
“Desiree does a wonderful job caring for our German Shepherd and our cats. We have had her come cat sit multiple times and recently had our dog stay with her for a few nights. We appreciate the care, attention, and time she spent with our cats during drop in visits and love the bonus love they get from her daughter. The photo updates are always appreciated and our animals look comfortable and happy. We trust her and look forward to them caring for our pets in the future.”

“This was my first time using Rover but Vanessa and Eulalia made it easy. Even though neither of my shy cats showed themselves, they seemed noticeably less anxious when I got home compared to other times I've traveled and had a friend watch them. I will be a repeat customer!”
“Tammie is awesome! I hired her to do drop-in visits for my cat Lindy while I was out of town. She was really communicative with me throughout my whole trip, even sending me daily photos and videos so I could see first hand how Lindy was doing. I felt like Lindy was being well taken care of each visit which I so appreciate.”
“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!”
“Ashley took such great care of my three cats! She was very on time for our scheduled drop ins, extremely communicative, and genuinely cared for my cats’ well being. I would definitely hire her again!”
“We were very happy with Brad as a sitter for our kitty! Friendly, courteous and attentive during our meet and greet and carried out all our requests. He did a wonderful job of reading our semi-social kitty's signals and she totally warmed up to him. She even allowed him to pick her up(!) We would love to have him look after our kitty 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.
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’m truly comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—whether that’s a high-energy pup, a shy rescue, or even more exotic companions. I’m not afraid of any animals and approach each one with patience, confidence, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities, and I’m always willing to go the extra mile—whether that means extra playtime, longer walks, medication administration, or plenty of cuddles. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give you total peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 I am open right now, currently a mother to twins so just wanting to get out of the house, and love up on your sweet babies! I am open to early hours and late evenings into the night to take care of your pets. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for free roaming and a safe neighborhood to walk around at. I love to go for nature walks around Washington and know the best spots!
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.
“Desiree was so flexible and accepted my fur babies at last minute. During the time I was gone I could tell they received lots of attention with all the pictures I received. I felt completely comfortable and will definitely book again in the future.”
“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: I’ve had or taken care of pets my entire life. I will listen to you and what your pet’s needs are and will ensure that they get the best care. Being in the position of needing pet care myself at times, I know how important it is to be confident in your sitter. I currently work from home 3 days a week. On the days that I go into work I will come home halfway through the day to check on your pets that I’m watching. Weekends are usually spent taking the dogs for daily outings. I can provide the importance of a partially fenced in yard. I am always willing to take your dog out on a leash if there is a threat of them running off. I love taking my pups out back on the acreage to run around. My 5-year old golden retriever and 13-year old basset hound will be able to accompany your dog in the yard :)
“Kaylee and her family are awesome and we are very lucky to have her in our area! Andy loves coming to their place and see all his friends and he sees them as his other family. 5 stars is not enough to rate Kaylee.”

About: - I'm a passionate animal lover who works full-time from home. I have the flexibility to choose my hours so I can accommodate drop-in pet visits, dog walking and boarding. I have extensive experience doing all three. We see this as experience to make some extra money and make some new animal friends. -I live with my boyfriend, 3 kids, 14 year-old female chocolate lab (fully vaccinated and fixed), 4 year old chocolate Lab (fully vaccinated and fixed) and a 4 year old female Dachshund mix (fully vaccinated and fixed). My dogs love other dogs. They are also VERY gentle with older animals or animals with injuries. My kids are disciplined and understand how to handle all sorts of animals and personalities. -We have several environments available to accommodate different animals and personality types. We have a large outdoor enclosure, an indoor large dog kennel and a great neighborhood for dog walking. We welcome pets on the couch! I work from home so I can accommodate pet schedules easily. If I need to leave the house for any reason, I have large kennels and fenced outdoor areas if necessary. I’m very sensitive to pet’s needs. I’d like to know what a pet prefers when it comes to their daily feeding routine and their comfort with other pets.
About: Our dogs have been our best friends for 20 years. We give them the treatment they deserve such as tons of pampering, love and care! We are retirees looking to fill our days and as pet lovers we decided we should share that time and love to other furbabies! We had three beautiful Golden Retrievers, all now in doggie heaven ♡ We currently have a 4 year old, playful, male Goldendoodle, an instant playmate to your furbaby! We have a fenced yard and we live in a quiet neighborhood, close to parks and a lake nearby to take them walking! We are mostly home so we will spend a ton of time with your fur baby may that be on walks, quick trips to nearby parks and lakes (yes car rides!) or simply chilling in our zen garden. They are the boss of us! We care for them like our own and take into consideration what they are used to. Your fur baby's comfort is our priority. They will always have company and will never be left alone.
“James and Julia are incredible nice, very flexible with Leo’s needs and they communicate very well with us. Leo is always happy to go to doggy daycare. We highly recommend James and Julia.”
“Leanne took excellent care of our dogs. Our older dog requires very different care (cuddles) than the younger one (play time and walks). And even with such varied needs, both of them love Leanne.”
“Very lovely experience. Emily and Dean have a wonderful family and home. They had a well behaved and sweet doggy. My dog had a great time. I will definitely book again when my dog sitter near my home is unavailable: Thank you. 😊 🩷🐾”
“Hi Scott, Thank you so much to you and your family! You were all awesome and took care of Olive as if she were part of the family. She felt right at home from the very first day, and the atmosphere in your home was incredibly welcoming. We truly appreciate everything you did.”
“Great sitter! My doggo Korvo loves his new friends. Michael gives lots of great tips on training and helps take care of Korvo in the morning with walks as I rush to work. Korvo’s life satisfaction has jumped and he’s much happier staying with Michael at doggy daycare!”
“Caitlin has been amazing with Nai’a! Though Nai’a is an anxious pup, she liked Caitlin instantly when we met the first time. Since then Nai’a has stayed over at Caitlin’s a few times and once Caitlin watched her at our house. One of the biggest challenges with Nai’a is that she runs away from her sitters. But, with Caitlin it’s finally been working out well and I feel so relieved to have found a regular sitter! Caitlin sends photos regularly and Nai’a seems to have fun at her house with her pups. Also, she is really sweet and flexible. Thanks so much for everything Caitlin!”

Your pet will be under direct supervision and care throughout the day with as many check ins as needed. I am able to care for your pets in your home as well.
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life. I feel so happy to be around them always. This is very special and heartfelt for me to care for them as often as I can. I work from home full time. I am aiming to make dog sitting a more full time active part of my day. I walk daily anywhere from 1 to 3 miles. I have a roomy apartment near a dog park that I visit often. I walk 3-6 miles a day near my home. I love visiting daily.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with 6 years of professional pet-sitting experience. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I love caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering medication, exercise needs, and senior pet care. I always provide photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I treat every pet like family and aim to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Hi! I’m Mallory! I’m enrolled in college online which has opened up my schedule to be able to take care of your pups! I love pets of all kind so pet sitting is the perfect activity to partake in durning my free time! I also have access to military bases! I currently have a 8 year old Great Dane( Minnie ) and 2 kitties named Louie and Lizzy! I take Minnie on walks around the neighborhood which is important at her older age she moves her body. She gets treats frequently, along with the kitties of course. Louie and Lizzy also enjoy there time outside, they mostly stay inside but when it’s nice enough outside they stroll on our outside porch. All of the things I do for my pets, I would do for yours.
About: I'm a country boy originally from TX. I've worked with and around animals for my whole life. I have over two decades of pet walking and pet sitting experience (shoot, I'll even water your plants!) When pet sitting I make sure to respect all the rules my animal pal's human tells me about. I encourage educational play and can handle high-energy animals just as well as the couch potato pets. I ensure feeding schedules and strict diets are on-paw (on point lol). On walks, I encourage good leash behavior and can work on reducing unwanted behaviors, like pulling, and leash aggression. I am prepared for emergency situations as well. Prevention is key, but sometimes accidents happen and my connection with multiple vets in town can ensure prompt service. I love animals because just as each human has their own personality so does each furry friend. Im here to help you and your pet pals when you're in a pickle! I work a flexible remote job and can mobile in short notice. I care for my dog, so if house sitting will need to make occasional trips home to attend to him (dont worry my roommate keeps him company when I'm out). I am available on weekends and after 5pm week days for walks, and can house sit any day of the week as long as I can connect to wifi. I have an aging dog pal and we have been through a lot of experiences together. He didnt have the best health when I adopted him, so I had to keep with him on a strict diet and medication schedule. I treat both my clients house and four-pawed friends with the same gentle care that I show Jaxson, my dog.
About: I grew up with dogs I had 5 growing up a boxer 2 labs a chihuahua and a pekingese. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am comfortable with providing care and scratches for any breed. I'm working part time at the moment so I have plenty of time open in my schedule to watch house or walk your dog as needed. In your home I can go by your instructions same as my residence. Lots of play time walks and tummy rubs I really like to engage with them.
“Tiffany was flexible with her time and walked Maximus when it worked best (evening because of the heat). You can tell instantly she’s an animal lover and w would be happy to have her walk Maximus for us again when we go out of town!!”
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’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’ve volunteered numerous times at animal shelters to take care of animals, I am able provide a fun experience for your animals while your gone! I’m currently staying home 7 days a week, I would be available any time or day that is needed. I can work around your schedule I am available to take long walks, play with your animals and love them to make missing you owners not so hard on your pets!

“Jesse was great with D'Art. He worked on some training and when I picked him up Jesse had brushed him out beautifully. I will not hesitate to book with Jesse again.”
“Bailey, Kyle and their pets are wonderful! Our dog had a blast running around their yard, meeting new buddies (their 2 dogs) and exploring a new part of town. It felt like he had so much fun he didn't want to come home and I can tell he is missing playing with other dogs now that he is home. We're excited to have Bailey and Kyle in our network when needed as they obviously understand pet behaviors and exceeded our expectations!”
“Cale and his wife are fantastic. They took the time to get to know Scout at drop-off, asking thoughtful questions about her care and preferences. During Scout’s stay, we received frequent photos of Scout getting snuggles and walks on their property. And then at drop-off they shared keen observations and details about her stay. We would book again with Cale in a heartbeat.”
“Maggie had a great stay. I can tell she had a lot fun and was well taken care of. It was nice to pick her up and have her freshly bathed. The communication and pictures were great.”
“Jerrie is awesome!! We were in a bind last minute when our dog boarding plans fell through but Jerrie saved the day. I was able to do a meet and greet prior where my dog, Trowa, was able to meet the other sweet pups staying at Jerrie’s. Trowa instantly hit it off with the others and had lots of room to play and explore outside. Jerrie sent updates twice a day with tons of photos of all of the fun they were having which made us feel much more comfortable having Trowa stay somewhere else while we were gone. Jerrie is kind, caring, and so communicative, I definitely recommend reaching out to her for any of your furry friend needs!”
“Faye was great. Flexible with drop off and pick up times. Met us on the pickup with all the girl’s belongings ready to go. Really easy transitions. Provided updates and was very communicative. Thanks so much.”
“Highly recommend. They have a beautiful home with a nice, spacious backyard. Marianne and Josh are kind and have a lot of experience with dogs. With two sweet dogs of their own, my dog had built in companions while I was away. They are warm, welcoming, and sent lots of cute/funny pics & updates. Your dogs will be loved open arms. So grateful my dog could spend the holiday with such a thoughtful, warm, and fun family! Thank you so much for loving Chai!”
“Leanne was an amazing sitter for our pup, Maple, for a week. She was great at communicating and keeping us updated. Maple enjoyed her company, walks, and snuggles! I would 100% recommend Leanne and our family will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Kaylee is the best! We are so grateful for her. She provided excellent care and frequent updates. She also worked with our unpredictable schedule. We will continue to request her as long as she will have our wild and crazy fur baby. Thank you Kaylee!!!”
“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!”
“David’s place was like a home away from home for our two dogs. They have different needs and personalities and David was an excellent caretaker for both of them. I hope to be able to have them visit again!”
“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“The boys loved staying here. They have a great home and the other pups they watch are all great with my boys. They get ouside and get out a lot of energy. My pups came home sleepy and happy! 10/10 recommend.”
“Our worried whippets had a wonderful first stay with Margaret! Our girls usually don't eat much/if at all when staying with a dog sitter because they get separation anxiety being away from their family but they ate with Margaret which told me everything. Our girls were happy, safe, and comfortable. Margaret's other dog Mochi was a sweet heart too who was patient with our nervous pups. One of our dogs is scared of any dog bigger than her but Mochi gave her space and was gentle during our meet and greet. The pictures I received showed me how relaxed the pups were, which is exactly what they needed. We have definitely found a go-to dog sitter :).”
“Tammie was fantastic. We travelled internationally and she kept us up to date, sending regular updates and photos. We were looking for a new place where our dog would be outside exploring vs kenneled and Tammie’s was perfect. She will be our go to!”
“Deidre took such good care of my dog while I was on a long trip. She sent pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation. I'm so grateful for her kindness and care. She is highly recommended.”
“Wynona and Jeremy were fantastic! So friendly and communicative! They loved Chewie and made sure he was well cared for and happy! Thank you for taking such good care of him!”
“Bobbi is the actual best! She is deeply thoughtful and treats my dog like he is one of hers. My pup is still young and she will arrange to have other young dogs come to play. I can’t say enough good things about her and the peace I have knowing my dog is in great hands.”
“We left Ocho with Jeremy for 3 weeks and they did great! I got updates frequently throughout our trip and could see she was in good hands and doing well. I can't wait to book Jeremy again and highly recommend his services! Thank you so much Jeremy!!”
