“Shawn and family took such great care of Pertie. They were so patient and loving with her while she adjusted to a new place. Their dog Hazel and her got along great. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was so well looked after. Shawn gave us updates with pictures everyday and was quick to respond. We would absolutely leave her with Shawn again in the future.”
“Kris was AMAZING. She was so flexible, so knowledgeable and caring, and I could tell that she took the best care of Cookie! Cookie came home happily exhausted from playing at her home, and we will absolutely book a stay with Kris next time we’re in the area!!”
“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”
“Heather and her daughter were absolutely amazing with our small dog Max . I felt he was in the very best hands . I had regular pictures of Max. Max was never left alone . He always had companionship and love . Her dog was very gentle and played with Max very well ! They became best friends. He even came home with a new toy ! We will absolutely be using Heather again for all our dog sitting needs ! Highly recommend!”
“We just used Gabriella for the first time and were beyond impressed. Our dog had a amazing time, she sent updates for peace of mind. Very responsive to communication. Would use her again next time we need to go away with peace of mind.”
“Carl took such good care of my dog Harley while I was away for a week. I got updates the whole time and I can tell Harley felt really comfortable there (he’s a sensitive fella) and was well looked after when I picked him up. Thanks so much Carl!”
“This was our third time having Nikhil care for our dog Maddie, when we were on a short, 2-day trip. Nikhil absolutely loves animals, and Maddie gets so excited to see him. Nikhil sends updates and photos, and has excellent communication skills. He is polite, friendly and caring. We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter, and Maddie looks forward to her next stay with him.”
“I selfishly don’t want to tell the world how amazing Connie is because I secretly want to keep her sitting skills all to myself! But alas, my conscience (and my dog) won’t let me. Connie was incredible! My dog was happier than a dog in a peanut store. I don’t know how I feel about how happy he looked to be rid of me relaxing with Connie on the couch. Probably would have stayed if I let him (sorry, I thought I was the favourite, but clearly not anymore). Connie’s and her partner are an amazing and caring couple. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my Duke moving forward. If you need a dog watcher, be warned: your pup may love her more than you!”
“Shari and Richard were an excellent choice for boarding our small dog! We appreciated their fast response time, thoroughness, flexibility, and regular updates. They took excellent care, going above and beyond! 5 stars, highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Deborah/Mark- were excellent with Texas and had great communication with me through the entire stay. Lots of walks and play time with taking Texas to the dog park several times. The home was very clean and homely.”
“Julie and family were fabulous pet sitters for our Stella!! They were very accommodating of our changing schedules and were always very welcome and friendly to us and Stella.”
“My dog loved his stay at Leslie’s beautiful place… He had lots of time to play outside and she fed him her own recipe of ultra healthy dog chow and generously passed on the recipe to me. He came home happy and healthy.”
“Chelsea was great! She took very good care of our Bloodhound and Aussie! Great communication and sent update photos for our peace of mind. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Lenore was absolutely fantastic—better than I could’ve hoped for, especially since it was a last-minute booking for 3 nights! She went above and beyond with our dog: videos, photos, long walks, feeding him special food since he wasn’t feeling his best, and just taking really good care of him. What stood out to me was how much time she genuinely spent with our dog. You can tell when someone’s just going through the motions, but not Lenore. She was present, communicative, and you could feel that she really cared. Her own dog—a 2-year-old lab-shepherd mix—played so well with ours. They got along like old pals, which was a huge relief during their time together. I’d trust Lenore again in a heartbeat.”

About: I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like they would with you. I’m reliable, responsible, and love sending picture updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already set aside time each day for walks, play, and feeding, and I enjoy being outdoors and active. I make sure to plan my schedule so pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship.

“Lizz made our elder kitty, Bella, feel very comfortable during our absence. She sent messages and photos after every visit. Bella always lets us know when we return if she is stressed by her experience. This was NOT the case during this trip. Thanks Lizz for all your care.”
“Emerson is the best :) so glad we met her. It’s so comforting to know our kitties are in such good hands when we’re out of town. Couldn’t recommend her more, she’s a superstar!!”
“Michael took care of my two elderly cats for a week during Thanksgiving. I have nothing but praise for his services and care. He was very responsive with daily communication and photos, left my home and the pet areas very clean plus administered medications as prescribed. It was evident that Michael has had a lot of experience taking care of animals! I would not hesitate to hire him in the future.”
“Jayde took wonderful care of our kitties! She was responsive during all stages of the process from booking, to the meet and greet, to the stay. We got updates daily, and I was able to relax during our trip knowing they were being cared for and played with. Our cats have very different personalities, and Jayde was great with them all. She gave Millie pets, played with Aria, and let Curio come to her if he wanted to. The house was clean when we returned, which is always nice coming home from a trip, and the cats were happy. We will definitely be booking with Jayde again!”
About: What sets me apart is my patient, attentive, and compassionate approach to caring for every cat as an individual. I understand that cats have unique personalities and comfort levels, so I take the time to let them warm up at their own pace while respecting their routines, boundaries, and preferences. Whether your cat is playful and social or quiet and independent, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Although I have a mild cat allergy, it has never prevented me from providing excellent care. I'm comfortable feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter boxes, administering routine care as directed, playing, grooming if requested, and giving cats the attention and affection they enjoy. I manage my allergy responsibly so I can focus on providing reliable, high-quality care for your furry family member. I'm also comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens who need interactive play and enrichment to senior cats who benefit from a calmer pace, extra patience, and close attention to their routines. I believe clear communication with owners and personalized care are the foundation of a positive experience, and I strive to ensure every cat feels secure, respected, and well cared for in your absence.

About: Update: Based in Bellingham Washington, currently looking to board/housesit for aniamals in Bellingham. I am a full time dog trainer and animal caretaker. I am also available for hire for canine training. I am in the process of receiving my national professional degree for Large and Small Animal Accupressure. I am also available for hire on the northern coast of Oregon, available for animal sitting in-home. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for neighborhood pups, giving them daily walks and love which fueled my admiration for them. I love spending time with animals because of how much we learn from each other. I spent summers working on a farm where I learned to work with all animals - great and small. From draft horses to cattle to chinchillas to fish to llamas to birds and bunny rabbits - I have worked with many types of animals. With dogs, I have cared for and train dogs from dachshunds to Great Pyrenees and so many breeds in between. I have worked with animals for over 15 years time as a caretaker. I volunteer at an animal shelter where I get to work with lots of different breeds. I have experience working with dogs which need a little bit of extra help on their manners or that have come from an abusive situation, creating a calm and trusting atmosphere for them where they can thrive. I find that not just do I love spending time with animals but that I grow as a person working with them. I am also available for pet sitting of animals other then dogs, as well. So please, go on your next vacation with your mind at ease, knowing your pets are well cared for and are on a vacation of their very own at our beautiful farm in northern Bellingham, complete with acerage, rolling fields and plenty of room to run and play. Wishing you a beautiful day!

“I can’t recommend this sitter enough! Shawn sends updates throughout the day and truly treated my dog like she was one of his own. My dog struggles with separation anxiety and she was actually bursting out of the car to go to this house. Shawn is super easy to communicate with and pickup/drop off were seamless. Simply a delight.”

“I was a bit concerned when leaving my anxious dog with someone new but Denise was wonderful with Millie and even got her to eat something! Millie doesn’t trust easily, so it says a lot Millie would take treats from Denise. Denise sent me pics during Millie’s stay, and I felt so reassured she was in good hands. Thanks Denise!!”
“Baxter was very excited to see Heather again after our meet and greet a couple of months ago - he led me right to her door! Her dog and mine were good playmates and company. Baxter is fairly energetic since he's just 1 yr old so Heather ensured that he had some outdoor play time as well. I would definitely recommend Heather and will likely book her again.”

“We are so lucky to have found Aline to walk our Benji boy every week ❤️ Aline is so kind, communicative, and flexible with schedule changes. Her updates to me about Benji are filled with many cute pictures of Benny which help keep me at ease knowing he’s having lots of fun and being taken care of. Aline does not spare any details making sure I know where they walked, how his poop was, and if he behaved 😊 She also has experience with reactive dogs, which was an amazing bonus to us because Benji can be reactive around other big dogs— so we know he’s in good experienced hands with someone that knows how to handle his spicy side 🤣 We are thankful for Aline for taking care of our boy! ❤️”

I treat every home with respect by keeping things clean, locking doors, and making sure your pet is safe and content before I leave. My goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Update: Based in Bellingham Washington, currently looking to board/housesit for aniamals in Bellingham. I am a full time dog trainer and animal caretaker. I am also available for hire for canine training. I am in the process of receiving my national professional degree for Large and Small Animal Accupressure. I am also available for hire on the northern coast of Oregon, available for animal sitting in-home. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for neighborhood pups, giving them daily walks and love which fueled my admiration for them. I love spending time with animals because of how much we learn from each other. I spent summers working on a farm where I learned to work with all animals - great and small. From draft horses to cattle to chinchillas to fish to llamas to birds and bunny rabbits - I have worked with many types of animals. With dogs, I have cared for and train dogs from dachshunds to Great Pyrenees and so many breeds in between. I have worked with animals for over 15 years time as a caretaker. I volunteer at an animal shelter where I get to work with lots of different breeds. I have experience working with dogs which need a little bit of extra help on their manners or that have come from an abusive situation, creating a calm and trusting atmosphere for them where they can thrive. I find that not just do I love spending time with animals but that I grow as a person working with them. I am also available for pet sitting of animals other then dogs, as well. So please, go on your next vacation with your mind at ease, knowing your pets are well cared for and are on a vacation of their very own at our beautiful farm in northern Bellingham, complete with acerage, rolling fields and plenty of room to run and play. Wishing you a beautiful day!
About: Previous groomer with over 7 years of professional experience with dogs and cats. Will happily love and care for any type of animal friend. Pets I board must be good with kids but drop in pets are ok either way. My best friend Gus crossed the rainbow bridge in December 2025 and while I’m not ready to find another friend yet, I’m ready to help people to ensure their besties are happy and healthy. Outside of boarding and walking, I can do nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, hair brushing and administer medicine if needed. I work full time and work remotely periodically. My schedule is pretty flexible so depending on your needs I can be available at a variety of times and days. I have a fully fenced yard and a doggy door. I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of options for walking routes. I keep my home tidy so that pets won’t get into anything they shouldn’t.
About: Hi! I’m 26 years old and have taken care of dogs for over a two years, have one myself, and have grown up with them as well. Being able to give them the best care is so important to me. I’m a runner and love to be outdoors so taking your pup along with me is what I plan to do! Im an animal lover and find I have a connection with every animal I meet. I have a 4.5 year old boxer/ridgeback mix who is my best fiend. I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my time with my pup and would love to spend it with yours too! I am available for short term and long term situations because my Schedule is so flexible I’m currently a nanny with a flexible schedule so I can see my dog so coming to take out or walk yours won’t be a problem! I always make sure pups are tuckered out before leaving them, from experience I know it’s so important to go for walks and have playtime before they are left alone
“Crista was very professional, attentive, responsible and kept me updated throughout her time with my dog. She let me know when she began and ended the walk, and my dog seemed as though she enjoyed herself. I would definitely book Crista again in the future!”

“Shawn and family took such great care of Pertie. They were so patient and loving with her while she adjusted to a new place. Their dog Hazel and her got along great. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was so well looked after. Shawn gave us updates with pictures everyday and was quick to respond. We would absolutely leave her with Shawn again in the future.”
“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”
“We just used Gabriella for the first time and were beyond impressed. Our dog had a amazing time, she sent updates for peace of mind. Very responsive to communication. Would use her again next time we need to go away with peace of mind.”
“Carl took such good care of my dog Harley while I was away for a week. I got updates the whole time and I can tell Harley felt really comfortable there (he’s a sensitive fella) and was well looked after when I picked him up. Thanks so much Carl!”
“This was our third time having Nikhil care for our dog Maddie, when we were on a short, 2-day trip. Nikhil absolutely loves animals, and Maddie gets so excited to see him. Nikhil sends updates and photos, and has excellent communication skills. He is polite, friendly and caring. We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter, and Maddie looks forward to her next stay with him.”
“Deborah/Mark- were excellent with Texas and had great communication with me through the entire stay. Lots of walks and play time with taking Texas to the dog park several times. The home was very clean and homely.”
“Julie and family were fabulous pet sitters for our Stella!! They were very accommodating of our changing schedules and were always very welcome and friendly to us and Stella.”
“Chelsea was great! She took very good care of our Bloodhound and Aussie! Great communication and sent update photos for our peace of mind. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Lenore was absolutely fantastic—better than I could’ve hoped for, especially since it was a last-minute booking for 3 nights! She went above and beyond with our dog: videos, photos, long walks, feeding him special food since he wasn’t feeling his best, and just taking really good care of him. What stood out to me was how much time she genuinely spent with our dog. You can tell when someone’s just going through the motions, but not Lenore. She was present, communicative, and you could feel that she really cared. Her own dog—a 2-year-old lab-shepherd mix—played so well with ours. They got along like old pals, which was a huge relief during their time together. I’d trust Lenore again in a heartbeat.”
“This is the second time we have used Ayesha to sit for our two dogs. Again they had a great time and were well cared for. We are planning to use Ayesha again in July when we go on a multi week trip. The dogs are looking forward to it.”
“Thank you for taking care of our dog for 10 days! We will definitely use your services again next time we head out of town when we aren’t able to take her with us. Thank you for the videos and the updates while we were on our vacation too.”
“Heather was amazing with Milo! She was also a great communicator and took marvelous care of my dog. She is friendly & caring and has such an understanding of dogs. I will certainly be using Heather's services again for Milo. Thank you Heather!”
“Liz took such amazing care of our dog! She sent us lots of pictures of his stay and gave his plenty of exercise and attention. It's great to find someone who loves our dog as much as we do. Looking forward to working with Liz again in the future 😊”
“Rachel was amazing with my two dogs- a young and energetic dog and an old grouchy dog! She was extremely attentive and loving, and updated us daily. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Sophia did a wonderful job of looking after my pup! Received solid updates while I was away, including great photos. This was my first time leaving my dog behind for a couple of days so I'm grateful I was able to find a great sitter. Thank you!”
