“Kaitlin and her husband Nathan took excellent care of my little dog Molly. This is the first time I left her alone with someone else, for over a couple weeks. They helped Molly transition from having a minor separation anxiety, to become fully comfortable by the end of the stay. They cared for her like their own dog. Kaitlin sent photo updates every few days. I recommend Kaitlin, and would book with her again!”
“Great boarding experience with Molly. She was friendly, responsive, and flexible. She took amazing care of Rusty and kept me smiling with updates and pictures. I will definitely be using her for future boarding!”
“Ethan was great! He watched our German shepherd for 5 days, he was very attentive, quick to respond and gave us lots of updates! Our dog had a great time playing with Niko and going for walks! She came back extremely happy and we look forward to using his boarding services again!”
“Gisella always takes great care of my bulldog Walter. He loves going there and getting to play with Gisella’s dog Brownie. Gisella is always communicative and flexible, would 100% recommend.”
“Kayle was great with my dog Rocky! She sent photos every day and I could tell he was having a good time. 10/10 would recommend her as a sitter. I will be asking her to petsit for me in the future!”
“Val took a good care of Bobo and he looked like he had a lot of fun! Thanks! I also found out from Val that Bobo got along with the kitten that is staying with her. Because otherwise I would never know how he is with kittens. That is very good to hear.”
“Fantastic sitter!!! Ollie had the best time and we revived updates every step of the way. We plan on using them again, and are so happy that we found a great place for our pup when we can’t take him!”
“Our dog had the best time!! We received constant updates and are so happy to know he was so well taken care of!! Will definitely be leaving him with Mariana and her family again :)”
“It was our very first time leaving our 5 month old puppy for a trip out of town, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Brittany (and her boyfriend Jeremy!). Our fur baby had a great time staying at their home and got along so well with their pup Isis + their kitties, we will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Kristin was beyond amazing. My hubby & I boarded our pit bull Weatherly for a night with her. Our dog is reactive towards other dogs, and a pit bull, so trying to find someone to watch her that doesn't feel uneasy can be a bit hard. We did a meet & greet, and I instantly knew she was the one to take care of our dog Weatherly. Kristin is very personable, within 5min of talking with her she felt like a long time friend. She has great communication, my hubby & I got picture updates. Her & weatherly hit it off from the beginning, and Kristin was super attentive to Weatherly's needs. We love Kristin so much, we actually rebooked. Weatherly will get to hang out with Kristin for 5 days, while my family & I are on a trip. She's our go to person!! Thank you for taking such good care of our fur baby!!!”
“Priscilla was amazing! Max had a great time with her and Millie. He gets so excited for play dates and to visit when hearing their names. Priscilla was communicative before and during our weekend stay which was great. She was also so supportive of all my questions and preferences to make sure me and Max were comfortable. We're looking forward to future overnights and daycare days!”
“Took fantastic care of Mimi! Mimi can be an anxious dog but she warmed up to Kelly real quick🩷. The frequent updates kept us reassured during our trip that she is in great hands.”
“Our pup was left in good hands with Mollie, she updated us on him while we were gone and he had fun playing with the other dogs. He was super tired and happy when he got home.”
“Took excellent care of our active young dog. Sent photos and videos daily. He definitely had a good time playing with her dogs! Thank you for all your help while we were away!”
“Thanks Sherry for taking such great care of my pet! She was incredibly responsible throughout the day care today. She always provides timely photo and videos and takes absolutely great care of Charli and she came home so happy that I highly recommended Sherry! Definitely will book Again!”
“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“Chris was wonderful with our little ShihTzu. He and his wife answered all of my questions and helped me feel confident in their ability during the meet and greet. We received daily photos and message updates. It was easy to see our dog felt very comfortable in their home and got along with their pays. We will book with him again!”
“Dylan was a great sitter for Tucker! I did a meet and greet before the stay and immediately knew Tucker would have a great time staying with Dylan and his dogs. Dylan sent updates and pictures letting me know how Tucker was doing. I would absolutely rebook in the future!”

“Juli has helped me with my kitties for six years off and on! She is a responsible, caring and outstanding human, not to mention the best kitty in my case sitter ever!! you can count on her 100%!!”
About: I’ve had cats throughout my life and have always loved getting to know their different personalities. I understand that every cat is unique—some are playful and social, while others are shy, independent, or need a little extra time to feel comfortable. I’m experienced with caring for cats and making sure they have everything they need, including food, fresh water, a clean litter area, playtime, attention, and plenty of love. I’m happy to follow your cat’s normal routine and care instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ve always cared for my pets as members of my family, and I will give your cat that same patience, kindness, and attention. Whether your cat wants to play, cuddle, or simply have some peaceful alone time, I’ll respect their personality and make sure they feel safe and cared for.
“Brooklyn was a wonderful sitter for our cat while we were gone. She was quick to respond to messages and offered to vacuum and clean around her litter box. We could tell from pictures that our cat really enjoyed Brooklyn’s company. We will absolutely use her services again when we leave town.”
“Alexa and Connor were good communicators and were willing to come out to do a meet and greet before confirming booking. Overall I had a good experience and would rebook with them again! Like they said you get two for one in their pricing. My cats warmed up to them and were taken well care of while I was on travel.”
“Christina was a great sitter. Very communicative about any issues as well as just giving updates about visits. A true pet lover. Will be rebooking in the future!”
“Stephanie is amazing - she took care of our babies. She played games with the babies while we are away so we come home to happy and healthy babies. She also went above and beyond taking care of our plants!! She gave us regular updates to keep our mind at ease. We highly recommend her and could not be happier with her as a sitter.”
“Soleil is super sweet and communicative! She did drop in visits with our two cats for a few days and was fabulous. She was great with the boys, took care of everything, and sent thoughtful updates to us. Our kitties were in great hands!!”
“Carrie was wonderful to work with. She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and took great care of our three cats while we were away. One of our cats decided to play hide-and-seek the entire time, but Carrie kept us updated on all of them and sent regular messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats, and we'd gladly book Carrie again.”
“Angel was such a godsend. I have never had to leave my cat for more than a day, so the prospect of leaving him for almost two weeks had me feeling some kind of way. Angel took time to care for my baby, but Angel also paid so much attention to my home. My cat is finicky, so I left very specific directions about how to care for him. Angel did everything exactly as asked to the T. I don’t think I’ll leave my cat alone as long as I did, but if ever I do I will 100% seek out Angel’s services.”
“Paul’s communication was great and consistent from before booking all the way through the service. He provided updates and pictures throughout and treated our cats and house with care, even offering to make an additional visit in the event our travel got delayed. Highly recommended!”
“A great experience with Allycen as always- she kept us looped in about how the kitties were doing on a regular basis, and we knew the kitties were in good hands.”
About: I’ve had cats in my life since a very young age! My first cat was an outdoor cat we inherited from our neighbors when I was 3. She found her way to our house and never left. I was the only one that could touch her and hold her. I love doing pop-ins for kitty clients, I have 3 cats at home that won’t allow kitties to spend the night with us.
“Jessica took excellent care of my kitties! I highly recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their pets! She messaged me everyday, sent pics and video, and followed all of my instructions. I highly recommend her, and plan on using her again if she's available for my next trip!”
“Hannah was consistently on time and fulfilled all my detailed pet care needs. She was a good communicator as well as a good problem solver (because nothing ever goes as expected). I would recommend her to anyone for any pet care needs.”
“K.D. Is our go to cat sitter! She’s the best - takes care of our Amalfi as if he was her own. He’s afraid of most people, but loves when K.D. comes over. We’re so thankful to have her!”
“Tatiana always takes such good care of our cats, is communicative, and takes the best pictures! It is peace of mind to have a pet sitter who is diligent and genuinely cares!”
“We love Kyley! They are reliable and consistent, and I love all of the pictures and notes. I look forward to it every time! Sammy loves her visits and getting some quality play time and a break in the middle of the day. I am so grateful to have someone like Kyley to trust with my best friend.”

“We’re very happy to have found Mollie and her crew for weekly daycare for our Great Dane puppy. They’re very understanding of his needs and knowledgeable in dog care and behavior, making his transition into their home as easy as could be! Mollie is really on it with communication and updates and is willing to work with him while he’s learning. Our pup is well cared for and well loved, as evident by how he jumps up with excitement from a dead sleep when he gets dropped off in the morning. Grateful for the M’s and their pups!”
“Can’t say enough about Brittany! Besides, I don’t know what we would ever do without her. Thank you for everything and being so dependable and flexible. Please never go anywhere lol”
“Dylan was very responsive and clearly cares for the pups in his care. He watched over our young puppy and shared lots of updates and photos to assure us throughout the day!”
“Ethan is amazing and his daycare/boarding area is clean and cozy. He has been so patient and sweet with our shy dog and helped her come out of her shell. We will definitely be brining her back regularly. High recommend!!”
“Kate was great with Charlie. Received multiple pictures and videos throughout the day to keep us updated on how Charlie was doing with the other dogs. Looked like Charlie had a blast and will definitely use Kate again.”
“Sherry was amazing with my dog, Emmy! From the moment we met, I could tell she truly loves animals and treats them like family. Emmy seemed to settle in very quickly based on the photos Sherry sent— Sherry’s home has a cozy home that made her feel completely at ease. I really appreciated the photo updates and the genuine care she showed. It felt more like Emmy was staying with a friend than a sitter. Highly recommend Sherry to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and loving with their pets! ❤️”
“Priscilla was great, she was able to help watch my dog even on short notice! She watched my dog for about 9hrs, I received frequent check ins and pictures of my dog. Great communication!”
“Val is amazing! My girl can be shy but opens up at Val's with her new doggy pals. She loves staying with her and I always feel at ease when I drop her off. Val has an amazing system for her doggy daycare that works and is always communicative, accommodating, and great with my baby girl! Highly recommend and will be booking again! Thanks, Val!”
“Loc did an amazing job watching Ragnar. He communicated to me about how Ragnar was doing throughout the day by sending videos and photos. Highly recommend Loc. We also asked for Ragnar to be groomed and we are so impressed by the cut Loc did. Thank you so much!”
“Christopher was so kind and took great care of my grumpy old man :) he was very responsive, sent daily photos, and gave lots of love! He even gave him a bath and cleaned his eye boogers for him. Thank you so much! We will definitely come back!”
“Paul accepted my last minute booking request. I had to adjust my drop off/pick up times & he was flexible with that. My dog Eddie can have a bit of anxiety when he isn't with his family. When he was picked up he was very relaxed & happy; so I know he was well taken care of. I will definitely use Paul again.”
“Khaytlen is amazing! We get great pictures and videos throughout the day and our puppy is very happy with her. She is very knowledgeable and gives us great feedback on our puppy’s progress . We feel completely confident leaving our puppy in her care. Thank you Khaytlen!”
“Sienna was awesome! Our 4 month old goldendoodle Marco loved playing in her huge backyard with Bohdi. Sienna was responsive to my messages and Marco was happily tired out whenever I picked him up. Thanks!”

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, horses, cows, chickens, and ducks from a very young age. For the last 13 years I have worked in the pet food industry developing a knowledge and passion for pet health, behavior and nutrition. My current work schedule is Tues-Sat, I am available for walks, potty breaks and feedings before or after my shifts. Sunday and Monday there is more flexibility in my schedule and I can do mid day drop ins or longer distance runs/walks with higher activity level pets. I would love to meet you and your pet to discuss any special needs or requirements for their care. I have a fenced yard and live in walking distance to a public park and school field that can be used before/after school hours. I prefer to work with your pet in the environment which they are most comfortable, your home. I am open to short stays at my home if that is what is best for your situation.
About: I have extensive experience with sitting and walking different types of dogs. I have one pup at home and have grown up with dogs (and cats). I’m currently working part-time while on summer break from WWU. Meaning I’ll have plenty of time to spend playing, petting, or walking with your pups :) I can’t host dogs at the moment, because of renovations. But am more than happy to travel to petsit and can accommodate any requests or health issues your pup may have.
About: We are a married couple that both have experience in caring for animals for both of our entire lives. We deeply understand how much trust is involved when someone else is looking after your pets. I (Alexa) have grown up with furry companions and have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs. Connor has also spent his life caring for pets and understands the responsibility and attention every animal needs. Between us, we have experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy dogs, large and small breeds, senior pets, and animals who need various medications. We have cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, along with our own animals! Alexa has also volunteered at local animal shelters and has had the pleasure of listening to Lee Asher speak in person. We are currently proud pet parents to a small dog, a large dog, a mischievous cat, and a senior kitty, so we know firsthand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and needs. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, medication, patience, or simply some extra love while you’re away, we will treat them like they are our own. Your pets are in great hands with us! I (Alexa) currently work as an EMT, which means I work only 7-8 days per month. That leaves plenty of time to go wherever duty calls! Connor gets his work schedule week by week, but normally has two days off (although they might change weekly). We would be more than happy to house & pet sit for you, provide walks, and do daily check-ins as well! In a clients home, we will respect your space and go places that are only necessary to your pets care & safety. We make sure to always clean before we go, and believe in leaving spaces exactly as you’ve left them for us. You can count on us to make sure your furry friend has all that they need while you are gone, in the safety and security of your own home.
About: I have always had animals in my life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, mice, hedgehogs, fish, and guinea pigs. I have also pet sat for other people and understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently have two dogs of my own, Dochi and Madrona, who are both Chihuahua and Shih Tzu mixes. Dochi is 1 year old and Madrona is 2 years old. I care for them like they are family, and I would give that same level of love and attention to every pet I care for. I have experience with dogs of different ages and breeds and enjoy getting to know each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, a fun day of play, or overnight care, I will make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I am available Friday through Sunday and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I am a college student, so my availability is mainly on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am able to provide care during the weekend and can work with pet owners to find a schedule that works well for both of us. I offer dog walking, potty breaks, daycare, and overnight pet sitting at my home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they can feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know how much pets mean to their families because my own dogs are a huge part of my life. I will treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely get fresh air, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. I also have a dog crate and a dog fence enclosure available, so I can provide a safe, secure space when a pet needs some quiet time or extra supervision. I have two dogs of my own, Dochi and Madrona, who are both Chihuahua and Shih Tzu mixes. They are friendly and used to being around other animals. I understand that every dog is different, though, so I will always take introductions slowly and pay attention to each pet’s comfort level. I have experience with dogs of different ages and breeds and will follow your pet’s routine, instructions, and individual needs. My goal is to provide a clean, safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet can feel comfortable while you’re away. I will always treat your pets like family and make sure they receive the patience, attention, and care they deserve.
“Arianna is a trustworthy and excellent person. My pooch loves her and she is flexible, responsible, and responds well. She is now dooing weekly with me! Thanks!”
“It was nice to be able to rely on Brooklyn for help with my dog and cats. I received a prompt review of the visit along with pictures. Definitely will book again!”
“Another great walk with Paul! I genuinely can’t believe how quickly he was able to build rapport with our dog Luna and get her to walk with him. She settled down very quickly and even listened to his commands. He clearly knows how to handle big dogs with quirks!! Very much appreciate his responsiveness, flexibility, and calmness.”
“Sarah was so great with my high energy dog! I felt very confident in her abilities. I also appreciated her good communication and professionalism. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and even though cats are more my speed now, I still love to get down in the dirt to play with the puppos. I'm currently unemployed, so I have all the time in the world to love up on and take care of your precious four legged child. Keeping to your pet's set routine is the best way to care for your pets. It will help with the separation anxiety and worry your pet will feel in your absence.
“Mollay kept me up to date on when she would arrive at my house and when she left. She got great pictures of my boy and followed my instructions perfectly! She's the first one I go to for any last minute walks I need.”
About: I have owned or cared for dogs my entire life, with the occasional rodent or scaled creature thrown in. Hopefully not at the same time. I’m comfortable with basic wound cleaning as well as administering medication. After a period working in a pet store I’m also more skilled in ear cleaning, breathing treatments, and temperature taking than I’d care to be. Work situation changed so I’m more open to daytime walks and drop ins. I also keep a weird sleep schedule so if you need a late night drop in or walk, hit me up. Update: I did recently get a dog. He’s a young doodle and prefers to chew on my hair and hands more than toys, but gets along well with other dogs. He sure everyone wants to be his friend. He is young, potty trained and a great playmate. So right now the only way I’m able to sit is if your dog would like new bestie. I am unable to care for pets in my home. I live with my niece and her cat can be a little…stabby, for lack of a better word. In your home, I’ll be following your lead. I do tend to go outside with dogs at night, even with fenced yards. I am always wary of bobcats and coyotes looking for water and snacks. I’m also perfectly comfortable with a pile of animals sleeping in bed with me so if that’s what your animals prefer, I’m here for it.
“My 2 dogs, Indie and Brody LOVE Tatiana!! She is patient, kind, and walks them, and the return home very tired. Tatiana doesn't hesitate to ask questions to make sure the dogs have all they need. I highly recommend her for walking dogs.”
“Megan was fantastic with my senior pup, Macklin! She was prompt, attentive, and took very good care of him on their walk. I will definitely be rebooking with her again!”
About: I grew up in a large family with many pets. We had five dogs and two cats growing up, and I have had my own pets since. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats over the years, though I just moved back to Washington, so I have no pets at the moment. I currently have open availability and am able to provide visits or stay over at clients homes to care for pets. I’m able to arrange arrival and departure to fit your schedule. I am able to fit whatever needs the client has. If your pets are accustomed to being out and about in the home, I can spend time with them that way. I also am able to use kennels for feeding or sleeping if that’s what they are used to. I’m comfortable keeping things tidy and making sure it’s a safe and clean space for them to hang out.
“Allycen was wonderful! She accepted my very last minute walk request and she was quick to respond. Very communicative. Highly recommend and will be using her again in the future!”
“Brianna is wonderful. She takes great care of my dog whenever she is with him. It's so nice to know that my fur baby is in good hands, weather he is going for a walk, at a playdate, or boarding with her. Absolutely will continue to call on Brianna when I need pet care.”

“Jennifer is a very warm person and I knew Rocco would be well cared for. She was boarding a couple other dogs simultaneously, which Rocco hadn't experienced before, but they got along well and became a sort of pack. When I picked him up, Rocco had clearly missed me, but when I took him home, he seemed a little restless - I think he missed Jennifer and his new pack!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life, growing up with them and continuing to care for dogs for friends and others over the years. I’m also the proud owner of an 8-year-old Newfoundland/Collie mix, so I’m very comfortable with larger dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and plenty of affection. However, I also grew up with dachshunds and love the little ones just the same. One of my strengths is reading a dog’s personality and responding to what they need. I’m naturally affectionate with friendly, social dogs, but I’m equally comfortable giving shy or timid dogs the space and time they need to feel safe. I never want to force an interaction—I’d rather let a dog build trust at their own pace. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and stick closely to their normal routines. Communication is also very important to me. I know how reassuring it is to receive updates when someone else is caring for your pet, so owners can expect me to be responsive and keep them informed. For dogs staying with me, I have a fenced backyard and live in a very walkable neighborhood, making it easy to provide outdoor time, exercise, and walks throughout the day. My pup, Drogo, is very kind and loves other dogs and he's especially gentle with the little ones. He can be a little grumpy with puppies, so that is a case-by-case basis (and I would encourage a meet and greet beforehand). Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether your dog wants walks and playtime, lots of pets, or simply a calm person nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make them feel comfortable. I have a very open and flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a natural part of my day rather than something I have to squeeze in around other commitments. Your dogs will be my priority. My flexibility also allows me to be responsive to owners and accommodate changes when possible. I want both you and your dog to feel like they’re getting plenty of attention—not like they’re just another appointment on my calendar. Safety, trust, and making your dog feel comfortable are always my priorities. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, boundaries, and quirks, so I’ll take the time to learn what works best for yours rather than assuming every dog needs the same kind of care. For dogs staying in my home, I have a securely fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and live in a very walkable neighborhood for regular walks and exercise. My dog, Drogo, is friendly and enjoys the company of other dogs, but I think introductions are important. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so everyone can get comfortable and we can make sure our dogs are a good fit—especially with puppies or dogs who may need a little more time to adjust. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both your space and your dog’s established routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely regarding meals, walks, medications or special care instructions, doors and gates, and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. I also pay close attention to a dog’s body language. Some dogs want to be best friends immediately, while others need patience and space before they feel comfortable with someone new. I’m happy to let them set the pace. And of course, communication is a big priority for me. I’ll be responsive and keep you updated so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while they’re in my care.
