“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.”
“Jerrie is an amazing dog sitter. She is so loving to the pups and sends pics every day. She is very responsive and the pups have an big, beautiful area to play and run. Jerrie is the best sitter I have ever had and I would highly recommend her to everyone!! Our dogs LOVED her!!”
“Our dogs had an AMAZING experience with Bailey and Kyle! They were so welcoming and loving to our fur babies from the moment they met, and it was beyond evident that they are true dog lovers! They shared pictures with us throughout their stay and kept us up to date on how much FUN they were all having. In all seriously, our dogs were sad to leave! This was the most comfortable I've ever felt while away on vacation...our dogs were in such good hands!”
“Annmarie did a fantastic job taking care of our 3 month old fur baby!. Her communication while watching our fur baby was great and we appreciated receiving pictures of her playing and getting all the cuddles. We will absolutly book Annmarie for any future dog sitter needs and highly recomend her!!.”
“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.”
“Absolutely amazing! I have never left my dog with another person who is not family before, and I was honestly a nervous wreck coming up to my trip. However Leanne was an absolute god send. I got updates with pictures as often as I liked, my dog got to tag along on hikes & picnics, and I felt 100% at ease. My Karma was taken care of like royalty & I would recommend Leanne to everybody! 500 stars ⭐️ 10,000% would book again ❤️.”
“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!”
“Bella was very well taken care of. She loves running around outside and she has not stopped sleeping since we got home. This was my first rover stay for Bella and very happy with James and his wife. Will be using them again”
“I cannot say enough how please we were with the service we received. We will definitely be using Desiree in the future. We were grateful for the pictures and video while on our trip and felt completely relaxed knowing he was well loved and getting attention! Until next time!!”
“Nate and Roxana are so nice and took good care of our boy. They have beautiful acreage with a pond where the dogs can have a blast. Our favorite part, our boy Charlie was freshly bathed before pick up. We’ll definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Jennifer is an amazing person who is understanding and communication is very good. She is always keeping me updated about my dog. She shows how passionate she is on what she does and I know for sure my dog is happy when she is in her home. I totally will continue to take my furry best friend to her as long as she allows it when out of town :)”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Kristin was a great sitter. She gave Josie Jo lots of love and attention and her little dog became Josie’s good friend. She sent photos and videos which made my day. I will definitely ask Kristen to care for Josie Jo again when I travel.”
“Jill is fantastic! If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. She's so kind, caring, and communicative. She and Josie took such good care of our little pup, and treated her (and us!) like family. She sent us pupdates, photos, and video of our little dog having the time of her life. We felt so at ease and knew our baby was being adored and cared for. We all had a great experience and we couldn't be thankful enough to Jill for treating our girl like a little princess.”
“Margaret was a great sitter for our dog Xena. She was responsive, polite, and provided regular updates during Xena's boarding. Xena typically takes a bit to get comfortable, but was quick to integrate with Margaret's dog Mochi. They quickly became best friends and she was clearly enjoying her stay. Thanks Margaret!”
“I received pictures of Leroy doing well, on a walk, making new dog friends and even a video of Leroy's play time along with a picture of him finally snoozing. He had a great day! I hope Bobbi continues to have availability for him as I have had a lot of last minute needs helping my family at this time in my life.”

“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!”
“Natalie took care of my cat, Aya, during the week of Christmas. She sent me updates and photos during her visit, and that was really helpful! My cat was really comfortable with her and she went above and beyond to make sure that my cat will be okay in between her visits. Overall, she was very pleasant to work with and I’ll definitely reach out to her when I need someone to watch over my cat again.”
“Grace was so wonderful! We appreciated the thorough details with each check-in, her timeliness, and overall consideration for our cats. We felt really comfortable while away knowing that she was providing our cats with a lot of love.”
About: I've been a dog mom for 18 years. My dogs have provided me with companionship, loyalty, joy, structure, and unconditional love over the years. My first dog, Angel, was a Beauceron mix with a blue tongue. She was my best friend, my protector, my shadow. I loved her fiercely. She went over the rainbow bridge three years ago at the age of 14. About a year before she passed, our Kai Ken/Mudi mix, Cody Coyote, joined the family as her companion. This past summer, Corgi pup, Michael, moved in. My son's first official dog. We take regular walks together and they are always making us smile and laugh. I know how special pup companions are and I would love to help you care for yours. Daily walks with my pups are very important for me and for them. I need the movement, and they need to smell. On the weekend, I have more time to walk more pups, check on them, give potty breaks, or feed them. My pups have a fenced in yard and are able to take regular potty breaks every two to four hours. We take walks after I get off work. My pups eat breakfast before I work and eat dinner when my family does. I am available on weekends to give your pup/s potty breaks every two to four hours, up to three walks a day, and feeding in your home.
“Tammie did an amazing job caring for Toby and Prince while we were on vacation. We were sent lots of videos and pictures during the in home visits, directions were followed perfectly. Couldn’t have asked for more!”
About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats, and small Reptiles for a combined 10 years. I love to snuggle on the couch, go for walks, and chase the local squirrels. I have a full time time job my hours are 5am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday I also have a small gig job that ranges in schedule, will communicate hours when necessary. My two cats are pretty laid back, other than needing pets 24/7. Growing up and have had to manage many different types of pets, from super hyper and playful to couch potatoes.
“Thomas was very professional, communicative, and responsible. He was always quick to respond and send updates with pictures each day. He put our minds at ease and took great care of our loved pet. Would definitely have Thomas care for our pet again.”
“We were thrilled to have been fortunate enough to have found Rovers in our area that have as much experience as Ingrid & Brad. We normally have family caring for our pets while we are away and this was our first experience using Rover for our cats. Brad followed our care instructions to a T and was a great communicator. Our pets were in good hands while we were away and we plan on using Brad's services again in the future!”
About: I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician since 2014 and this has taught me how to take care of multiple breeds and temperaments of cats. I am comfortable giving injectable and oral medications, baths (if they allow), nails trims, tube feeding, and more. If I have any questions about how you may do something, I ask. Taking care of animals is my happy place and it is a joy seeing all of their true personalities while pet sitting...especially when comparing it to their personality at the vet office!

About: My goal is to provide the best dog sitting service in Mason Country. Read on for how I set out to be that special caregiver for your pets. I came to pets and pet sitting “later in life,” and discovered, with great gratitude, a passion and a gift for taking care of your precious animal companions… because that is what they are, for you and for me. I’m not a casual caregiver, or a friend; I’m not walking your dog or feeding, or talking to them, as a favor to you or as a part-time job or hobby. Nor am I in a hurry to get out of your home, or to ‘fit you in’ between errands. I own my own pet sitting business and I'm going through here to get started in a new area for new clients. My total focus is your two most precious possessions: Your pets and your property…all day long, usually 7 days a week! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter, dedicated to the loving care and the details of dogs! I believe that pets should be as happy with a sitter as they are when their owners are at home (or close to it!). As one dog owner put it: “I enjoy your notes immensely. I feel like you know my dogs as well as I do after a few short days.”… The most important goals for me are providing a consistently high quality of pet care service and developing lasting relationships with Mason County pet owners. Here are just a few of the ways that I can make a quality difference in your pets’ (and your) lives: Details I’m a detail-oriented business person who knows how important it is to follow through, in a meticulous way, the instructions you give me for the daily care of your dogs as well as your home. When I mull over situations with your pets and think about how important your home is to you, I always ask myself: “What would they do if they were here? How would they want me to proceed”? If there is any question in my mind, I contact you before taking action. I document all my actions for you, in my daily text or email, so that you don’t have to wonder or worry about the quality of care your pets and your home have received while you’re gone. As one client put it: “My goal in going with a professional pet sitter was…wanting the best for our two dogs while we were away. Carrie left it “camps without a trace,” returning the house to you as you left it. To list all the tasks she does to keep things ticking while we’re gone is more work than I want, so let’s just say, hire this intelligent woman who takes pride in her business and find out the true meaning of “getting away.” High Standard I maintain Open Communication at all times. Great communication is the key to all successful relationships. I always email clients a confirmation of their pet sitting arrival and departure dates/times, so there are no missed appointments or misunderstandings. I also write detailed daily email/text describing your pets’ activities and behaviors, including any changes I notice in their eating or sleeping or other routines – in addition to all their fun and funny ‘adventures’ when you’re gone! The level of communication I provide you, before you go and while you’re away, is an important part of my pet sitting service, demonstrating the observation skills and the focus I bring as caregiver for your pets and home! It's my main career to take care of your pets on a daily basis. So I have all the time in the world to spend time with them. I will be caring for your pet (s) in their own home where they are more comfortable than being in a boarding place. Have a wonderful day. Hope to hear from you soon
About: I have over 15 years experience pet sitting cats, I've have cats of my own my whole life, and have worked on them in a veterinary setting. I am fear free certified, so well prepared to work with anxious babies; I also love playing with the more outgoing personalities!
About: I’ve worked in professional pet care for several months and always have enjoyed it! I recently moved back to Seattle, and am looking to continue working here. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to be around as much or as little as you and your pet prefer! I will also be able to come around at the most convenient times since my schedule isn’t fixed. I’m very experienced in working with cats, however fickle they may be, and providing whatever they may need. I also have plenty of experience with dogs, both housesitting and dog walking with all types of dogs from the most relaxed elderly dogs to the most excitable pups! It’s always especially fun to see a dog who is just so happy to see you as well! My schedule is flexible so I’m able to come around whenever is best for you and your pet! Weekends and weekdays are both great as well. My priority is always the safety of your pet! Whether that’s on walks or in the home I make sure your pet is safe and happy.
“Willow was such an excellent sitter for my dog. She sent plenty of updates and really made us feel comfortable being away from our pup. I couldn’t have been happier with her service and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Regan did a nice job making friends with our kitty and her daughter played nicely with her as well! Communication was always prompt and she followed through with our routines and wishes. We would be happy to book with her again.”
“Maria was a thorough and excellent sitter, as her first home visit client she took care of my fur child with lots of love. He was recently neutered and she took great care of him in my absence, spending good quality time with him making sure he was healthy and fed. Maria sent pictures often and gave text updates outside of rover. Maria is one I would recommend to anyone that is in need of a pet sitter.”

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.
“Jesse took Sasha on a few walks and she got to play with other dogs. I got updates and photos. Overall I was satisfied and I was happy he was able to watch Sasha.”
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.
“I had so much anxiety leaving my pup but as soon as I met Desiree I knew she would be in good hands. I know she was cuddled and loved on so we enjoyed our trip. Will for sure book again ❤️”
“An exemplary professional and person! Kaylee and her family were warm, welcoming, and made themselves available at every turn. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to any friend or family”
“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!”
“Great day for the dogs, we received pictures and were kept up to date how the girls were doing. We were late picking them up but James is very accommodating, would love to book with him again.”
About: - I'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.
About: When I was little and people asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said 'dog walker' — and now I finally get to live that dream! This summer I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I have experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats, and I treat every animal like my own. This summer I'm home in Olympia taking a college course, so my days are flexible and my focus is simple — hitting the books and spoiling some fur babies! I have plenty of time and am committed to giving your pet consistent, reliable care My home comes with a large fenced yard — plenty of room for your pup to run wild, explore, and have the time of their life!
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 :)
“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!”
“I highly recommend Sonia for all your dog needs. She put my anxious mom self and anxious dog at ease. My dog came home happy and tired after doggy day care. Thank you !!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“I am an overprotective veterinary professional/Karen here... so I'm shocked that I found someone I'm so confident saying this about, but... Jennifer could NOT be a better, safer, more reliable, more loving, more careful and cautious pet sitter. My best friend and I were in Olympia for a few days recently for an event, and I needed somewhere for my three beautiful black crazies to be for that day. I'd spoken with some other pet sitters, but wasn't impressed, and I was getting more and more stressed out about it. Luckily, at the 13th hour, someone my daughter works with recommended Jennifer. As soon as we walked into her home, I knew I'd found my "person". Her entire house is set up to be a doggie Disneyland. Her yard is ENORMOUS, fully enclosed, and has natural ground. (Which is great, because I always worry about ACL injuries when dogs are running on concrete or slippery grass.) Within the first 10 minutes of being there, my autistic adult dog relieved herself completely, which she hadn't done throughout the prior three days we were traveling. And then... the most amazing thing of all... she started ZOOMING around the yard! I have had her for five years, and had never seen her like that before. She was like a bullet, flying through the air, unstoppable in her joy and speed. Her puppy brothers struggled to keep up with her, but couldn't. It was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever seen. I felt so, so comfortable leaving my three babies with her. I'd never felt that comfortable with anyone. Beyond that, Jennifer was friendly and incredibly flexible. It's clear she really loves dogs. I told her that if I ever make the 1,000-plus mile trip again, it would be so that my dogs could visit her, and NOT so that I could see my daughter. Joking...? I think not. Thank you, Jennifer! We need a million more "yous" everywhere. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡”

About: Please apply code JESSEK47265 for $20 off your first stay!! Must be a new rover customer. I've trained dogs from puppyhood, including housetraining, obedience training, and agility training. I've worked with Peace of Mind Dog Rescue, specializing in senior canines with special medical, physical, emotional, and behavioral needs. I also train dogs in scent detection for search and rescue. My furry guests receive plenty of attention, play, outdoor time, and walks throughout their stay. They are free to be outside, inside, play as much as they want, or lounge around. My dog Checkers is always up for a game of tug-of-war, a chase around the yard, or a group nap. For the convenience of my clients I provide availability every day, daytime, night-time, weekends, and holidays. I have a large fenced yard with lots of open space for running and playing. The yard has plenty of shade as well as areas to sun-bathe. Plenty of water is always available. The house and yard are kept clean and flea-free. Pets have constant supervision, with special attention and monitoring provided if play with other pets is allowed by owner. Due to dietary considerations, and to avoid resource guarding, I feed pets separately, as well as watch them carefully if toys are present. I like to walk dogs together as behavior allows, which promotes bonding between them. I appreciate as much information as possible from owners about how to make their fur babies as comfortable as possible, and give them an unforgettable Pet -Airbnb experience they will love to come back to!

Please let me know what your needs are and I will do my best to accommodate them. I am not available Sunday morning from 10-12am or Tuesday from 7-9pm. I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own to keep you dog company. I walk dogs together to encourage them to bond, behavior permitting. Safety is my number one concern.

About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was 2 years old. My dog was my best friend from 2-16 yrs. I was raised on a mini farm and was lucky enough to care for horses, cows, pigs, chickens, several dogs, many cats and recently goats. Nothing brings me more happiness than being around our furry friends. Currently, we have 3 miniature poodle mixes, which we love beyond words. We recently adopted a St. Bernard/Pitbull mix. We have a big dog house 24’x12’ fully fenced to board big dogs. Medium 20 lbs to extra small dogs board/daycare inside our home. We offer an alternative to traditional boarding/daycare. Our dogs are family and guest dogs are welcomed to our family pack. Animals are my passion and bring me fulfillment and joy! Providing daycare and boarding is my profession. I worked a corporate job 35 years as a director in the health insurance field. After I was laid off I decided to not go back to the long hours and stress. Instead I dove head first into following my dream of opening a pet service business. I’ve taken my business experience and love for animals to the next level. I am excellent at following the care plan you give me. I want to take care of your pet as you would with as much love as I can give them. I understand the need for pet parents to travel or work knowing their pets are safe, exercised and loved. I offer a customized experience developed just for your dog.
“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”

“Tara came to our rescue when our regular sitter fell through at the last minute. We were overjoyed after the meet & greet to have someone local that clearly “gets dogs”. Plan to book with her in the future, and are so grateful for the daily updates and photos. Thanks Tara and Leo/Khali look forward to walks with you again soon!”
“Madisyn has been doing a great job walking our big rambunctious collie. She is reliable amd communicative and may have some special magic, as our cat who is normally aloof with nonfamily took to her right away and followed her to get more pets.”
“Taylor is exceptional with my two large dogs and highly knowledgeable about various breeds and how to train them. Her kind, compassionate demeanor is well received by my dogs. I would highly recommend her for her amazing services.”
About: My goal is to provide the best dog sitting service in Mason Country. Read on for how I set out to be that special caregiver for your pets. I came to pets and pet sitting “later in life,” and discovered, with great gratitude, a passion and a gift for taking care of your precious animal companions… because that is what they are, for you and for me. I’m not a casual caregiver, or a friend; I’m not walking your dog or feeding, or talking to them, as a favor to you or as a part-time job or hobby. Nor am I in a hurry to get out of your home, or to ‘fit you in’ between errands. I own my own pet sitting business and I'm going through here to get started in a new area for new clients. My total focus is your two most precious possessions: Your pets and your property…all day long, usually 7 days a week! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter, dedicated to the loving care and the details of dogs! I believe that pets should be as happy with a sitter as they are when their owners are at home (or close to it!). As one dog owner put it: “I enjoy your notes immensely. I feel like you know my dogs as well as I do after a few short days.”… The most important goals for me are providing a consistently high quality of pet care service and developing lasting relationships with Mason County pet owners. Here are just a few of the ways that I can make a quality difference in your pets’ (and your) lives: Details I’m a detail-oriented business person who knows how important it is to follow through, in a meticulous way, the instructions you give me for the daily care of your dogs as well as your home. When I mull over situations with your pets and think about how important your home is to you, I always ask myself: “What would they do if they were here? How would they want me to proceed”? If there is any question in my mind, I contact you before taking action. I document all my actions for you, in my daily text or email, so that you don’t have to wonder or worry about the quality of care your pets and your home have received while you’re gone. As one client put it: “My goal in going with a professional pet sitter was…wanting the best for our two dogs while we were away. Carrie left it “camps without a trace,” returning the house to you as you left it. To list all the tasks she does to keep things ticking while we’re gone is more work than I want, so let’s just say, hire this intelligent woman who takes pride in her business and find out the true meaning of “getting away.” High Standard I maintain Open Communication at all times. Great communication is the key to all successful relationships. I always email clients a confirmation of their pet sitting arrival and departure dates/times, so there are no missed appointments or misunderstandings. I also write detailed daily email/text describing your pets’ activities and behaviors, including any changes I notice in their eating or sleeping or other routines – in addition to all their fun and funny ‘adventures’ when you’re gone! The level of communication I provide you, before you go and while you’re away, is an important part of my pet sitting service, demonstrating the observation skills and the focus I bring as caregiver for your pets and home! It's my main career to take care of your pets on a daily basis. So I have all the time in the world to spend time with them. I will be caring for your pet (s) in their own home where they are more comfortable than being in a boarding place. Have a wonderful day. Hope to hear from you soon
About: ive petsat many animals at peoples homes and always loved playing with them all while respecting everyones homes. Id love to start walking in addition to this and getting outside more im currently in between jobs as I move so i have full availability and plenty of time to spend with your loving animal, any day of the week. I dont typically take pets to my home since I am moving but I treat every animal and every home with the same respect as my own. I keep things clean and love to leave things better than I found them.
About: I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician since 2014. Taking care of animals is my happy place and it is a joy seeing all of their true personalities while pet sitting..especially outside of the vet office! I have the most experience with cats and dogs but I have also personally owned a range of pets (gecko, fish, hamsters, tarantula, axolotls, toads, rabbits, chickens, and more) and taken care of llamas, pot bellied pigs, horses, and chinchillas. I have even had the privilege to help care for a fawn and opossum! There is no pet that I would not love the opportunity to meet and care for. I am open to helping any special creature and with any special needs. My sister, Breanne, will often pet sit with me. She has helped me care for the wide range of pets for the past several years. She has a huge heart and loves any pet she sees (she doesn't even have to meet them!) There is never a dull moment for a pet when she is around because play and pet happiness are her ultimate goal. There is never a pet who will feel left out when she is around. She is also my plant expert. If you only need house sitting (without pets) I offer that as well. Just send me a message. Pet care is my full time job, whether it is for my own two dogs or helping other families with their pet needs. I am currently home full time and eager to meet your pet(s). I do occasionally work online but this is limited to a couple of hours a week. Just let me know what you are needing and we will see what we can do. I don't change up your care routine! I make sure gates are closed and collars are snug. I do not invite people over without permission. Please be as thorough as possible with anything I would need to know to help make each experience a great one. In my home, for caged creatures, I have a separate room for sleeping and would keep my dogs separate when taking them out for socializing. I currently cannot offer cat/dog care in my home. If you would also like plant care or basic house cleaning duties just let me know. All parts of the environment are important.
About: I've been the go to carer for all kinds of pets (dogs, cats, senior animals.) for my family and friends since I was a teenager. I find that I have a calming presence that puts them at ease. I have some experience with training, mostly with previous pets. I'm currently in school and working part time. I have Friday, Saturdays and Sundays free. And Thursday afternoons free. If things go well here, I hope to have Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons free too. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to play and lots of toys. I no longer have pets of my own, so any animal under my care will get my full attention.
“Alisha has been the best with our high-needs part-husky, Zorra! Great communication, worked us into her schedule when both my husband and I started having knee/back issues. Alisha made fast friends with Zorra and it's great to see our dog so happy and excited to go walkies, and so happy and tired when she returns. We highly recommend Alisha!”

“Brad was great with Baldur and Baldur loves his new friend. Our dog is large, reactive, and very hyper at times. Brad is great with him and handles his energy and nipping. He genuinely loves working with dogs and I would recommend his services.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 12. I love walking, washing and caring for animals more than ever. It warms my heart to see them loved and happy. I am currently working a full time position but it is not an everyday job so I am hoping to fit some time in to do something I love well making some extra money on the side! With a place in my heart for animals comes with being alert to everyone and everything around when taking care of animals and pets. When walking animals I make sure to stay away from other pets or people if your pet is not comfortable with being around others. When grooming I make sure to be gentle and patient with the pet/pets. When staying in the home I make sure that they are well loved and get the attention and care they need.

This was the most comfortable I've ever felt while away on vacation...our dogs were in such good hands!”

“Absolutely amazing! I have never left my dog with another person who is not family before, and I was honestly a nervous wreck coming up to my trip. However Leanne was an absolute god send. I got updates with pictures as often as I liked, my dog got to tag along on hikes & picnics, and I felt 100% at ease. My Karma was taken care of like royalty & I would recommend Leanne to everybody! 500 stars ⭐️ 10,000% would book again ❤️.”
“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!”

“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Margaret was a great sitter for our dog Xena. She was responsive, polite, and provided regular updates during Xena's boarding. Xena typically takes a bit to get comfortable, but was quick to integrate with Margaret's dog Mochi. They quickly became best friends and she was clearly enjoying her stay. Thanks Margaret!”
“I received pictures of Leroy doing well, on a walk, making new dog friends and even a video of Leroy's play time along with a picture of him finally snoozing. He had a great day!

“John was great with our shy pup, Bear. The photos and updates were wonderful. He was very easy to communicate with, friendly, and immediately put me at ease knowing he’s a long-time dog person. Our pup was exhausted when we got home so he got plenty of walks and all the fetch he could have wanted. I will gladly reach out to John again in the future!”
