Personalized care for your dog or cat - Orcas

“Kelsey was great with a longer overnight stay with our 2 senior dogs. She was helpful with updates along the way as well with unexpected travel changes. Definitely recommend.”

Tamy L.

“Kris and her family took great care of our Romy and Tilly. Tilly has lots of medical/health needs and she came back refreshed and well fed. Romy is a sweet boy but was having some behavioral issues and they took care of all of it and offered some suggestions for us to help!”

Annika F.

“My husky was so well taken care of by Kelsey and her family! She came back to me happy and tired 🥰 Kelsey was so good about sending pictures and updates too, which I loved. Will definitely be dropping aloo off again when I return to Victoria”

Amber K.

“Most of us have a hard time leaving our dog kiddos behind when we have to leave town. Well - not if you’ve got Kelsey nearby ?. It was obvious from the start that he connected with our Lily and treated her like family. Photos, comments, questions while we were away kept us from missing her too much. And never worried for a moment…We highly recommend Kelsey (& his family when needed). Thank you Kelsey ??”

Jan G.

“Andrea was amazing! We have a senior dog who can be difficult with new people and her deteriorating eyesight and hearing can make leaving her with a new person very stressful for us and her. Andrea had a very gentle and calm approach with our dog which allowed her space to feel comfortable. Her updates gave us peace of mind and when we picked her up she seemed at home in her house. It was so comforting for us to know Riley was well taken care of. We would highly recommend Andrea as she clearly has a great energy and connection with dogs putting them at ease.”

Megan D.

“Our golden, Bessie, loved her time with Nick and didn’t want to leave! It’s a great home with a gorgeous view and plenty of space for pets. Nick was very kind, easy to communicate with and sent cute pictures. I’m so glad to have this wonderful option for our visits to Orcas that sometimes include non-dog friendly events.”

Tanya K.

“This was our second time booking with Bianca and it was another great experience. Our dog was well cared for, we got regular updates, and it was clear she was comfortable and happy. Highly recommend and will book again!”

Caroline L.

“I highly recommend Cynthia and plan to book again soon!. Our pup had an excellent experience, especially for her first visit. Cynthia went above and beyond in every category, including communication and care, walking her daily, and even giving her a bath. She came home bright, happy and in beautiful condition with special treats. Cynthia is a warm, caring, and very responsible sitter, noting all details. Her emphasis on safety, and frequent photos were especially appreciated. Our pup was very well looked after in every way, thanks to the kindness of Cynthia!”

Kellie T.

“Kimberly was great! She was very communicative, making arranging pick up and drop off a breeze. She shared pictures and also reached out to see if Daisy could have watermelon. She loves it! I would be more than happy for Kimberly to watch Daisy again.”

Taylor D.

“Vicki took great care of our 1 year old Maltese. Her and Henry were great playmates. It was a great vacation for our little girl. Vicki took great care and sent photos , videos and messages daily. It was a great relief to hear she was happy and having fun. We felt very comfortable with Vicki and that our baby was in good hands.”

Frank M.

“Sarah was great as usual! Kawai has a great time! She was very flexible with the last minute booking when my younger pup required surgery urgently! Thanks so much Sarah!”

Emilee L.

“Daisy was great. I recommend her for a senior dog with additional care requirements due to age. My dog was happy and I could relax knowing my pup was in good care.”

Tammy H.

“Tiana was excellent with Finn! He had so much fun with her dogs and she has a great outdoor space for them to play and run around! She was constantly updating us with photos which made us feel great about being away as we knew he was so well taken care of! Will definitely use her again and Finn will be so excited to return 😁”

Janet C.

“Kallie did a great job taking care of Bernice. She was reliable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. We’d be happy to book with her again.”

Saisoi K.

“Bailey had a great time with her new friends. She was kept active and comforted when she was fussy ( new place syndrome 😁) She has a new buddy in Ollie and I couldn't be happier for her care! We'll be back!”

Julie B.

“Even though my dog ​​caused them a lot of trouble, Kevin&Kayla still loved my dog ​​until the end. I'm grateful to them. They are very nice people. If they would allow me, I would like to ask them again.”

Yu N.

“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”

Sharon T.

“Lenore took great care of my dog. Scout and her dog, Rook, seemed to get along and it was great to know that she was staying in a “dog friendly house.” It can be hard to leave your dog behind with a stranger, but I felt confident that she would be well cared for.”

Lorie B.

“Virginia is exceptionally kind and easy to work with. She communicated well with us and our dog seemed very happy at her place. We will us her again.”

Randy L.

“Morgan was sooo easy to book with and made us feel so comfortable with leaving our puppy with her. She did an awesome job keeping us in the loop and even sent us a picture of our pup hanging out with hers. Highly recommend her !! 🤍”

Isabella M.

“Nick was super kind to my pups. He treated them well, gave them walks, and gave them love that only a dog lover could give. I highly recommend Nick without any reservations when coming to Orcas Island.”

Tom M.

“Kelsey was great! Otto got to help in the home office, hang out with other dogs, and got some outside time too. Otto can be an escape artist, but Kelsey kept him safe.”

Valerie R.

“Gabriel took great care of Winston and gave me lots of updates. Winston got plenty of walks and love and he was clearly a very happy pup when I returned. Really appreciated Gabriel’s flexibility as I reached out the night before. Would definitely recommend.”

Sophy L.

“Bethany was so great with my dog Bean. She took him to the park, played fetch, and gave him so much love. He was exhausted after and I can tell he had the best day. We will definitely reach out to Bethany again!”

Courtney M.

“Roxy is a great dog sitter and our dog was comfortable and happy in her care. We received photos and updates daily, which I really appreciated. Great place for him to socialize with other dogs of all sizes. He was definitely well cared for and came back more confident around other dogs. Would definitely recommend and will use her again!”

Rosemarie E.

“Kelsey was great watching our dog Dax while we went out to dinner. He was easy to book with and communicative. Would definitely book with him again.”

Lexie M.

“Very accomadating to my schedule! Highly recommend”

Hunter C.

“My pups are always excited when I pull up at Nicole's, they run right up to the door, which shows me they're happy and comfortable in her home. She's has excellent communication and takes good care of my babies.”

Anne C.

“Virginia responded immediately to my request for a booking and was helpful and communicative throughout the process. She is very friendly and pleasant to work with. My 11 year old dog had a great day at her house. He was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. I’m sure he’ll be excited to see Virginia and her family again!”

Jon R.

“We are so fortunate to have found Pam. Our older, small dog, who doesn’t like to be left alone, seems to have found a new friend.”

Bill N.

“Holly and her family took such great care of our dog, Dottie. I couldn't be happier with the process - from the first message to the meet & greet to the doggy day care date. Communication was clear and easy, and I felt that safety and care were well prioritized. Having that reassurance that your dog is in good hands is honestly priceless. The fact she had a great time with Archie is the cherry on top. Dottie is already passed out sleeping (on the couch - sorry!) from all the fun she had. Will definitely book again. Also thank you for all the photos during the visit! They were very comforting for this anxious dog mom.”

Meredith S.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was ten years old and love getting to know them. I will be their calm and confident leader. Safety is my top priority (with fun being close behind) I will tailor each visit to the individual pet depending on their needs and personality. I run with my dog Daisy 4-6 miles a day and would love to adventure with yours! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Beginning in the Fall I will be available every Wednesday & Thursday morning for walks/jogs. As of now I am available for boardings anytime. For walks and jogs I am currently available at various times throughout the week. We are diligent about keeping our doors shut for our pets safety. Our dog has a long leash she can use in order to explore our backyard whenever she wants. I am adaptable and happy to follow each owner’s specific requirements for their home and keep the pets safety as my top priority.

“Jennifer was great! Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Coast had such a great time hanging out with other dogs and had plenty of room to run and play”

Cohen H.

“William was a joy to work with. He was very tolerant handling our ever changing scheduling beginning and ending his care of our doggie. We needed a sitter of our dog while we went out on a boat tour for several hours necessary because we were visiting from a community a few hours distant. All became very confusing when the scheduled sitter cancelled at the last moment. William calmed us and managed our concerns with grace. AND, our doggie was very pleased and happy.”

Tom D.

“I felt very lucky to find a sitter that would take my pup and Tannis (and her patient family) spent quality time with my girl. Her location was perfect for me, I picked up a very happy puppy, and I could not feel more confident leaving my sweet girl in her care. Thank you Tannis!”

Alison B.

“Ramesh & Lauren took great care of our Dog Georgia. They gave her plenty of walks and love. They are responsive and communicative. Hight recommend”

Jaime M.

“Bianca was wonderful! She had great communication and sent regular photo updates, which we really appreciated. My dog is very shy and timid, but Bianca did an amazing job and made her feel comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”

Caroline L.

About: I’ve cared for many pets since childhood, giving me decades of hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. I offer calm, reliable care making pets feel safe, understood, and genuinely loved. And yes, dogs think I’m hilarious, while cats simply tolerate me — I respect the dynamic. I’m here for the zoomies and the drama! Calm, patient, and great with shy or anxious pets who need a soft, reassuring presence. I stick closely to feeding schedules, potty routines, medication instructions, and walk preferences so pets feel secure and comfortable. I always send warm, detailed updates with photos so you can feel connected and reassured. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel right at home, treated with the same patience, gentleness, and respect I give my own… plus a little extra, because I speak fluent “treat” and I’m an unlicensed but highly skilled cuddle dealer! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m not working at the moment, so your pet basically becomes my coworker — and honestly, they’re way better company. I’m able to give pets my full attention. I keep a flexible schedule for drop‑ins, daycare, and walks, and I’m available to follow each pet’s specific routine, from feeding and potty breaks to playtime and calm companionship. Pets get consistent care, plenty of interaction, and a reliable presence throughout the day. Drop-ins at your home: I keep things consistent by following their established schedule, giving pets calm companionship, enrichment, and plenty of attention. Walks are safe, paced, and full of sniff‑approved adventures. Daycare is a mix of play, rest, and gentle supervision. When pets stay with me, they get a clean, cozy environment, a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and whatever routine makes them feel most at ease — from free roaming to crating if that’s their comfort zone.

“We were really nervous about leaving Leo with someone but Vicki made the process so easy! She was so understanding and communicated with us throughout the day. Leo came home tired and happy! :)”

Grace G.

“Sarah was so amazing with Stanley and I can’t recommend her enough! I booked her last minute and she will now be my go-to. Very communicative and sent me the cutest pictures and updates.”

Kate B.

About: Hi pet owners! Pets make me so happy and I wish I could be with them all the time! I am not able to have a pet in Bellingham so I would love to take care of yours! I have cat and dog sat and dog walked more times than I can count and I love it! Thanks for considering, I am hoping to use my earnings to travel during the spring! I have a very light work/school schedule! I am gone at most 2-5 hours at a time. I would love to watch you pet at my house or at yours! I love to play with pets, give them lots of snuggles, take them to the park, and walk them, I like to hang out outside with them!

“Bill and Gerrie are 2 lovely genuine people who in our absence have looked after our 2 furry family members in such a way that we are free to enjoy ourselves without worry or guilt. The personal and individual attention our dogs had during the home environment stay was great. Communication has been great throughout and we received regular updates and pictures of them both having a wonderful holiday of their own with Bill and Gerrie. We 100% recommend them both as wonderful sitters and have already booked another sitting with them going forward.”

“Jennifer took great care of our family member Blue. (As with some human family members, our canine family member can be a handful.). Jennifer worked with our requests and Blue’s nuances/personality. Couldn’t be more pleased that we found Jennifer and were fortunate to have Blue hang out in a great environment, with customized attention. Five stars.”

“My dog loved his stay with Adrienne. Max daily enjoyed the fenced back yard, hanging with her family during the day, and all the walks and smells in her neighborhood. He felt safe and loved. I would highly recommend Adrienne!”

Nancy O.

“Jael was a great Rover find and we will definitely book her for future stays! We received regular updates and photos while we were gone. Gus got lots of attention from Jael and her family (as seen in photos). We are happy to have found a new Rover home for Gus. Thank you Jael and family!”
