“Leanne was very professional. Before Finn’s overnight, we had a meet and greet. She had a form for his needs and information. Finn has anxious behaviors, so she asked many questions to make sure his stay was comfortable when he stayed. When Finn had his overnight, she sent multiple updates with pictures. She had toys for finn that he loved and he loved relaxing on her couch. It was a home away from home. We’re very grateful it went so well.”
“I needed pet sitter for a trip out of the country. James was a wonderful pick to watch my dog for a week where she got top notch attention and care. Really appreciated the pictures and videoed he sent while out of town. My girl got to play in his giant backyard and the other dogs got along well so overall a very positive experience and I highly recommend James.”

“Our pup got the princess treatment from Jennifer and her family! They even spoiled her with dinner and ice cream :D Our baby was so well cared for, clearly loved and beyond well taken care of. The pictures Jennifer sent us overjoyed us and kept us laughing everyday of our trip. There’s nothing that gives you more peace of mind and heart like trusting who is caring for her. She made so many new friends, and had the time of her life at Golden Camp. Jennifer was also so accommodating with giving Willow her eye medication. They’re THE BEST.”
“Norman absolutely loved Kaela and her family! She is super accommodating, she accepted us last minute and allowed me to adjust my drop off time. I got lots of updates and pics the whole time and he slept all the way to the campsite so I know he had a great time with the kids! If your dog is good with kids I can’t recommend this family enough and will definitely be reaching out next time I’m in town!”

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!!.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Pamela was great with our doodle, she kept us up to date with photos daily and details on how things were going which we really appreciated!! 10/10 would definitely book with her again!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! Christine took care of my cat, Amigo, for four days while I was away, and she went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly caring, always punctual, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. Amigo was happy and well cared for, he received plenty of love and attention. I highly recommend Christine to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated pet sitter. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Zash checked in on my 2 year old cat for seven days and did a terrific job. She gave Cali a lot of attention and a lap to lay on during her visits. Zash made sure she always had food and water and kept the litter box cleaned out. You can tell she really enjoys animals and she makes sure they are doing well and are safe. I received a daily report of how Cali was doing and sent pictures of their interactions. Thank You again Zash. I highly recommend you!”

Sarah is rebuilding that trust, by be kind, thoughtful and precise. She continues to ask questions and learn how to care for our kids. Thank you Sarah!!! 😊”
“Kaci is so amazing in every way, I can tell she really cares about my home and all my babies well-being. It's so nice to not have to worry about my senior cat that needs medication. She will be my go-to for every sitting job for as long as she'll have me!”
“Johanna did a fantastic job with our elderly cat… We’re always nervous to leave him because he sometimes gets stress-related illness when we’re gone. Johanna took excellent care of him, sending frequent updates, pictures, descriptions of how he was doing, etc. It was very reassuring, and we’re definitely using her again for future trips. Highly recommend!”
About: Cats have been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've helped rescue nine cats and raised seven from kittens to adulthood, giving me extensive hands-on experience with feeding, litter box maintenance, socialization, and understanding feline behavior. I also have experience administering various types of medications and am comfortable carefully following treatment instructions to ensure pets receive the care they need. Through years of caring for cats with different personalities, ages, and needs, I've learned how to build trust, provide a calm and safe environment, and adapt my care to each cat individually. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and am committed to making them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“I loved having Lisa watch Crosby. Most recently I had to l ave him while I had surgery and I never worried one bit about him. Her gentle manner always comes through and I know Crosby is safe.”
“Lizzy dropped in to take care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation for a week. She was wonderful! She took care of everything and sent lots of updates on how things were going. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were being cared for. I'd 100% recommend her!!”
About: I have had cats since I was less than 10 years old, and currently own a four-year-old ragdoll. I love cats and have a patient, kind energy that is necessary to take good care of your feline, young or old!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Springfield
“We sent Koda for his first play date and he had so much fun! Sonia sent pictures and videos and Koda came home soooo tired from all the phone. He must have been in puppy heaven! We are excited to have a place for Koda to go play!”

About: I'm a long-time dog lover and professional photographer. Your canine companion can expect lots of nature trail walking/running and engaging play time! There are always new toys and treats waiting to surprise them, and trips to the beach and visits to the dog park are often on the menu. Keeping your dog(s) safe and happy is my number one priority! I have a flexible schedule and dog-friendly home with a large, fenced yard and over .5 acre of walking trails for your pet to enjoy. I'm a buisness owner and mother to a pup loving 12 year old daughter, our 5 year old female shepard/huskey mix, Ruth, and our 8 year old cat, Ahya. At our home, your pup is one of the family! I work from home and set my own schedule so adjusting to your pup's schedule is no problem at all! Routine feeding and exercise times will keep your fur baby comfortable and happy. Daycare hours: 6:30am - 6:30pm I have a fenced yard, walking trails, and a friendly, energetic pup for your dog to play with. Dogs can sleep on the furniture (or cuddle up in bed with the humans) or have their own private space in several quiet areas of the house. Lots of toys, treats, and cuddles are sure to keep your pup entertained!
“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.”
“Lisa and her family graciously took care of Milo while I was passing through town and accommodated our quick schedule. They had great energy and Milo seemed to have a wonderful time. So grateful to have found them!”
“My pup had a terrific time and had awesome playmates to greet him and run free with during his stay. He was tired out from all of the fun and went straight to sleep when we got home. I'm so happy he got a little pup vacation.”
“I really appreciate Darby's stance on dominance upon arrival, she deals with no bull! And I felt my pup was secure during her daily visits at Darbys home, with walks and suitable interaction with other pups at her home, I had no complaints. My pup was fed her meals as requested and Darby went the extent to clean the containers I brougjt homemade meals in for feeding, so I hadnt needed to worry about that after a long day! I respect Darby's stance even if off stanish to start.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Jennifer and her family for taking such great care of my dog. My dog came home happy, tired. I will definitely continue to board with Jennifer.”
“Our little Odie loved his time at Rochelle's! She took such good care of him and he came home calm and relaxed every day. Great communication and wonderful location. Highly recommend!”
About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.
“Bobbie took wonderful care of our dog, Pistachio. Normally full of cattle dog energy, Chio was tired and happy when we picked her up. We’d definitely recommend Bobbie to sit your pup!”
“Alison was so great for doggy daycare! Sent so many pictures, asked all the right questions, and even worked on certain training commands with Gus. Highly recommend her services, she’s very trustworthy and professional!”
About: I grew up with a dad that trained dogs and I have watched, trained, and cared for dogs my whole life. I love all animals and would love to take care of your fur baby!

And he was tired and happy when we picked him up 😀 It was nice to receive pictures thruout the day too! Will definately use Pamela's services again for our pup!”

“Kelli is awesome! So sweet and caring and she also agreed to do and meet and greet which i appreciate. She was super patient with my dog even though he made a mess. She is very kind and cleaned up after his mess today. She sent many photos while on her visit and Sig loved her.”
“I highly reccomend Brett! I got very sick and was in a pretty desperate situation with my newly rescued, very large pitt mix. I contacted Brett and he got in touch with me right away. He came at the drop of a hat a few days when Ash really need a walk. He even came from farther than he routinely helps people. Very reliable, punctual and kind. Was easily able to handle my 85 lb pitt mix. (With bad manners...lol) I'm very grateful for the help he gave me. Give him a call!”
“Sheena was very kind and communicative. From the pictures and videos of their walks and playtime, my dog definitely enjoyed their time together. We will be reaching out to her for future needs and highly recommend her.”
“Helena has been our steadfast furry friend walker for years and she has been fabulous! Communicative, flexible, kind and more. Helena comes highly recommended by my family!”
“Matthew was courteous and quick with communication for our first meet & greet + walk. It is very clear that he has worked a lot with dogs and understands their unique personalities. Thank you!”
“Maria is especially good at coaxing our dog out on walks when the pup doesn't want to go. We also appreciate that she submits Rover cards for each visit and leaves the house exactly as she found it. We feel so much better about being at work all day knowing Maria is spending time with our dog.”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I've helped rescue nine cats and raised seven from kittens to adulthood, which has given me extensive experience with feline care and behavior. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and building a bond with them through play, attention, and consistent care. In addition to cats, I regularly help care for my family's dog through walks, playtime, and daily care. I also have experience raising and caring for ducks, which has taught me the importance of providing consistent care, maintaining routines, and paying attention to each animal's needs. While cats are where most of my experience lies, I'm excited to work with dogs and other animals as well. I'm reliable, attentive to detailed care instructions, and dedicated to making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, exercise, or specialized care, I'll treat them with the same patience and attention I give my own animals. I'm currently on summer break from college, so I'll have almost unlimited free time to play and care for your pets! I also don't mind weird hours, day or night. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any other care requirements provided by the owner. I like to be extra attentive and keep a close eye on pets because their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while you're away, helping them feel happy and secure in their familiar environment.
About: I’m here to serve you and your beloved pets with reliable care, giving you true peace of mind while you’re away! I do more than just feed and potty break — I make sure your pets receive quality social time and personalized care. I have experience caring for many types of dogs and cats, including elderly, anxious, and those with special-needs or requiring medication. I also completed certification through Mud Bay (pet food company), having been trained in dog and cat behavior, nutrition, and pet wellness. My goal is to provide dependable service you can trust and a calm, loving experience for your pets while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I am petsitting full time now! I understand the stress of having to leave your pets behind when traveling, so I do my best to follow requests around times and routines. There are times where I am caring for more than one pet client, but I will communicate that with you before booking if it applies. I generally do not take clients that require potty breaks/visits less than 4 hours apart, though often I am in the home full time. I typically watch animals in the owners home. I am happy to walk, exercise, and play as needed or requested. Often stay overnight, and follow the directions left by owners.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, house birds, falcons, rodents, fish, chickens, ducks, and plenty of other animals since I was a child and have helped care for both young and senior pets I’m currently unemployed searching for jobs, so my routine is really flexible, only needing to set aside time for job interviews and family. I currently have the ability for extended house/pet sitting needs. I do not have the ability for boarding animals currently, however with the services I currently offer I am gentle and respectful of all animals, their owners, and the owners property.
“Cayeln is absolutely amazing! I love her creativity to ask me where she wanted to walk Darla. Darla aay a squirrel and took off to chase the squirrel with such force the leash snapped. The great thing is she waa able to run her down and get Darla back with her. Darla loves Cayeln! She has such a wonderful spirit about herself and I love the trust that my dog has with Cayeln! I'm going to book her once a week for the next 3 months!”
“Liza is great! Most importantly, our Abby loves her and Liza likes Abby an awful lot, too. Liza is reliable, responsive to questions and keeps me informed. She has been so kind during a family member’s serious health problems. Because they were hospitalized unexpectedly, there was and the uncertainty of how long the overnights booking would last since it was dependent on how things went after surgery.”
About: I've had two dogs as pets, one for 15 years and another lived until 11. I miss the companionship and would love to walk a few dogs in the neighborhood during work breaks. I work full-time locally and would love to break up my day with check-ins or dog walks. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan ahead for check-in, play, or for longer walks (up to an hour and a half). I have lived in Olympia since 2013. I am very comfortable working with dogs and have a soft spot for senior dogs or those with special needs. My last dog had degenerative myelopathy and enjoyed modified walks and exercise until the end. My hope is to have a few dogs during my work week to connect with and take care of, ideally up to two hours between 11-4, M-F.
“Amazing! Absolutely amazing. Great communication, very trust worthy. Loves animals and is great with my disabled pup. Couldn't have asked for a better sitter/dog walker.”
About: I have over three years of experience working at Mud Bay (local to the PNW). I am thoroughly knowledgeable in holistic wellness solutions and helping to educate pet owners on nutrition and lifestyle choices for their cat and/or dog. Pets have always been a part of my life and I can't imagine it any other way. I’ve taken care of animals since I was eight years old, happily offering my services as a pet-sitter to friends and neighbors. Most recently, I have worked with private clients and have several long standing relationships. Proud owner of two therapy dogs in training and one cozy kitty! Currently, I am a massage therapy student in Tumwater, WA and my availability revolves around my school schedule. I have classes from 9am- 2pm, Monday- Thursday. Fridays are my most flexible day. I'm excited to stay active and more than happy to exercise with your pets! I am extremely respectful of other people’s spaces, only utilizing what is necessary to care for your pet! I’m a trustworthy, tidy, and reliable individual who focuses on the task at hand and stays engaged.
About: For several years I cat and dog sat for my cousins while they were on vacation, and I occasionally care for my friend’s 3 legged pitbull. For my last job I was I walking a wire haired pointing griffin twice a week. I did this for about 3 and a half years. I myself have a chihuahua and have had cats throughout my life:) Whether it’s all day or just a drop in, I can be flexible depending on what kind of care you’re looking for. We can work together to find a schedule that works for both of us:) Caring for your pet in your home is a level of trust I don’t take lightly, so I want to respect your space and how you use it. Your pet's comfortability and safety is the first priority so having them in a space that they already know can be all the more helpful.

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!”
“Our two pups just completed their first stay with Deidre and we couldn’t be happier on the care they received and the communication she had with us. We hope that she will have the availability to care from them in the near future but anticipate that she will grow in popularity due to her 1st class service!”
“Laura and Dalton were fantastic with my goldendoodle, Leia! They provided updates and made me feel at ease. It was clear from the start that they care about the pets they look after. Leia had a great time under their care. She came home happy, well-cared-for, and delightfully tired from all the fun! I’m confident she’d jump at the chance to go back. I can’t recommend Laura and Dalton highly enough for anyone looking for responsible dog sitters!”
“Marianne and her husband clearly love dogs and have so much love and attention to give, which my pooch received. They took him al kinds of fun places around town, and gave him plenty of snuggles. They even included him in a bday treat for their doodle! Easy going, clear communication and they provided lots of photos. We knew our boy was having a blast while we were gone!”
“Jeremy was very communicative and helpful, especially since this was a bit of a last minute booking. We were appreciative that he took such great care of our dog, Opie, while we dealt with a family emergency. He had so much fun with the other dogs there. We will definitely consider Jeremey first for future boarding needs!”
“Our dog, Theo, had such a great weekend with Jamie! He was comfortable, happy, and relaxed in her home. Jamie took Theo and her dog to a nearby park to run around, and it was clear from photos that he had so much fun. We highly recommend Jamie's dog boarding services and are sure that Theo will be back for a visit next time we're out of town!”
“Yvonne was absolutely amazing with our high-energy lab pup, Bailey. She had so much patience and understanding, and many skills to help make for a positive and comforting stay for Bailey. I highly recommend for not only boarding but any training needs. Will be using Yvonne for all of our future boarding and training needs!”
“We’ve never boarded our two little dogs before and we were terribly worried about trusting them with someone or that they would be okay. Oh man, we had nothing to worry about. I think they want to go back! Darby made us feel assured with pictures and reports of our babies not missing us one bit. They had an adventure and were more entertained at her place than at home. They lounged on her couch and slept with her (just like at home). They watched chickens and horses (more interesting than our house). I felt 110% assured they were safe and well cared for. It was wonderful to have no worries. Plus…she picked them up and delivered them back to us. Perfect experience. ❤️”
“Bobbi is amazing and so great with Moku! She was so helpful with making me and my pup feel so comfortable. She gave me peace of mind as I traveled and put up with my dog’s quirks until he felt safe. She can manage probably every dog and make them feel like her home is theirs. Her communication was so quick and it was so nice getting updates everyday on how he was doing. I would definitely rebook if I need to and would recommend her to anyone! My dog isn’t the easiest to take care of mainly because he has separation anxiety from my wife and myself and she still was so gracious with him even after multiple difficult nights of him whimpering and whining. None of this is due to her ability to care for him he’s just very particular. Even still she communicated with kindness of how he was doing and kept me in the loop constantly. I’m grateful she was willing and so very capable of making my dog feel at home. If you are in need of dog care and she is available she is definitely worth trusting your dog with!”
