“What I love about how Kelsey cared for our dog Jenny is the way she shows so much genuine care for her and her desire to provide the very best experience both for Jenny and for her owners. I really appreciated the level of communication - updates on how Jenny was doing / photos / consulting on a couple of Jenny’s health issues - thank you so much, Kelsey, for making this such a great experience!”

“Kelsey took wonderful care of our dog, Ruby, while we were out of town for a few days. Ruby had so much fun with Kelsey’s dogs and you could tell she instantly felt at home. Thank you so much for treating her like your own!”

“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!”

“We had an amazing experience with Cynthia! She took care of Milo for two days and treated him like her own. She kept us updated, made sure he was comfortable, and gave him lots of attention and care. It was clear that Milo was happy and well cared for the entire time. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

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.
“We have left our little Chihua-what with Sarah multiple times now. She sends pictures and updates throughout our times away and our dog is always returned to us happy and healthy. We’ll use her as long as she’ll take him!”

“Amazing! Our Clyde had such a good time! Kinda funny as when I left him, he didn't even want to say goodbye to me. Instead just followed the children into the house to play. Perfect stay!”

“There was very good communication from the beginning of the book till the end. I appreciated the updates with pictures of my dog. I would definitely rebook with Kimberly in the future. Service was 10/10.”


“Great, and easy to book. Communicates how ever much you want with updates. My dog seemed happy and playful, definitely had a good time. Will definitely book again when needed.”

“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.”

“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”

“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.”

“Chelsea was truly amazing! She treated our baby girl like her own. She slept with her every night and loved on her like she was her own. our girl slept all day after we brought her home. Would definitely send our baby there again!”

“Jael and her family made our dog feel right at home! Drop-off and pick-up were quick and easy, and when we returned, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We’ve tried kennels before and our pup came back stressed and underweight — but with Jael, it was the complete opposite. Stella ate well, played, and looked so content when we picked her up. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like family, but Jael truly does. We couldn’t recommend her more — 10/10 experience!”

“Leslie is Max’s most favorite pet sitter, and because of that mine. My dog is shy of humans and often other dogs. Max settled into Leslie’s home and bonded with both Leslie and her two dogs. It was a comfort to me knowing Max was happy while I was away.”

“Kelsey was super communicative with us and great with our dog despite his puppy nature and silly quirks! It is evident she really enjoys having dogs around and we appreciate her!”

“Nick and Rebecca watched my two cats for about a week. They were extremely flexible with drop off and pick up times! My cats felt at home and Nick and Rebecca were great with sending updates to me! I would definitely trust them with my cats any time and will be utilizing their services again in the future!”

“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”

“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.”

“Nick & Rebecca are very sweet and caring. They took in Clementine on a very last minute request and she had a great and relaxing time with them in their beautiful home. She had a good time with their doggo too ☺️ Thank you! We hope to see you again!”

“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!”

“Chelsey was absolutely amazing! She saved my day by accepting my last minute request within 3 hours. She took incredible care of my pug Hulu, and her own pug, Nigel, was so friendly and welcoming. Hulu had such a great time playing with them that she didn’t even want to leave!”

“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.”

“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!”

“We were very happy with Virginia. She came to see us at our campsite on our first day and made sure we were all set to leave our dog. This was our first time to use Rover and we couldn’t have been more thrilled.”

“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.”

“Needed drop off daycare on short notice. Hosts were quick to respond and easy to coordinate with. Easy drop off and pick up. Happy family, happy dog. Highly recommend!”


About: I believe dogs have the best souls on earth. Enjoy hiking, playing in the yard, or simply being in their space. I also enjoy training from puppy to advanced agility. I’ve trained a couple different types of dogs and a bird ranging in ages. Also able to transport locally to homes, vet, and or parks. My late sweet Pepper dog and I were Project Caine certified as a Therpy team, volunteers at island hospital, and Master Agility Champions. We look forward to meeting with other awesome dogs and their owners. I work in the travel industry, so my schedule varies. I usually know a couple weeks in advance. My spouse’s schedule varies too. Sometimes we are available 24/7 We treat Pets as Family in our home.🥰. We live on acreage close to Deception Pass. We have experience with administering 💊 medication to young and older fur babies 🐾

“Hazel had a blast hanging out with Jax! She came home happy, tired, and well cared for. It was clear she had a wonderful time, and we’d definitely trust Virginia with Hazel again!”


“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.”

“As always, Angela saves the day! She messaged me back right away despite me requesting daycare with very short notice. She saved me the stress and trip of dropping them off or picking up. And she took amazing care of our babies while they were with her. She’s the best!”

“Katrina is a gem - quick responses, and was very easy going and willing to roll with it when I (embarrassingly) forgot my dog's bag of lunch, toys, etc. the first time I brought him over. I don't think he even missed his things, given how well her place is set up for dogs. The big, fenced back yard is a dream!”

“Leslie is awesome to work with. We started with a meet and greet and then Toast stayed with her for daycare. She was very communicative, and was wonderful with Toast. Sometimes he can get really excited and stressed with too much time with other dogs, but when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy. We'll totally book with her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Lauren and I have been taking care of animals on and off since I was a little girl. I have sat for puppies, seniors, cats, dogs, and everything in between. I have a bird and three dogs of my own, including a Saint Bernard. I love animals and I am hoping to get to meet some new ones. Right now, I am home from college in Seattle for the summer. I am currently taking bookings for any day of the week and at any time! Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to take pets on walks/potty breaks as often as needed. I always make an effort to tidy up toys or the home in general before leaving and I am very comfortable crating/feeding/playing with dogs of any size.

“Adrienne took such great care of our dog Lyra! We were really happy to know she was with someone who was responsible, caring, and friendly. We appreciated the regular updates and knowing that our dog was well looked after while we were on vacation. Adrienne and her family were really sweet to Lyra and we’d happily rebook again.”

About: I grew up on a small organic farm, where we raised everything from sheep and goats to rabbits and quail. We also had 5 cats and a dog, so caring for animals was a part of my everyday life from a young age. That experience has given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities and needs. As I got older, my love for animals stayed with me. Whether your pet loves long walks, play time or wants someone to keep them company i’ll make sure they feel safe and well cared for. I recently graduated college at WWU and I am currently working part time, so I can easily fit around your schedule and have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work Tuesday and Thursday and I am off in the afternoon. I live close to a few parks that are dog friendly and make a great walk. Inside, pets are free to roam throughout the house.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Our two dogs were so well cared for, and it was clear they were treated with love and attention the entire time. We appreciated the daily photos and updates. It made being away so much easier. We will absolutely be booking again with Danielle”

“My dog was so Happy, and she seems better behaved at the park, she plays with other dogs which she never did before. We are so happy, I feel like her anxiety is gone about other dogs. Chelsea is now our go to for a dog sitter. We are so happy with our dogs experience! Thank you Chelsea”

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve had the joy of raising and looking after pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My own dog lived past 15 years old, and supporting him through the health challenges that come with age taught me how to administer a wide range of medications and provide the patient, attentive care senior dogs need to stay comfortable and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, quiet companionship, or a little extra support due to age or medical needs, I’m committed to making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine steady, their tail wagging, and your mind at ease knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Now that I’m not working outside the home, I’m able to devote my days to something I genuinely love — caring for pets. My schedule is calm, flexible, and fully centered around being available when pet parents need me most. Whether it’s early‑morning visits, midday check‑ins, or keeping a steady routine for your pet while you’re away, I have the time and attention to make it happen. I’m an early riser, so morning feedings, walks, or drop‑ins fit naturally into my day. I enjoy starting the morning with purpose, and there’s nothing better than beginning the day with a happy tail wag or a content purr. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can offer consistent care, low‑stress routines, and quick communication — all things that help pets feel secure and help you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into a busy schedule. It’s a meaningful part of my everyday life, and I’m committed to giving your pets the same calm, reliable, loving care I give my own. I’ve learned that the little details make the biggest difference. When I’m in your home, I follow a careful routine to make sure your pets stay secure, comfortable, and stress‑free. * I keep doors and gates fully secured at all times and double‑check them before leaving. * I follow your pet’s routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions. * I monitor your pet’s behavior and environment closely, making sure they’re safe, calm, and not getting into anything they shouldn’t. * I keep all medications, treats, and supplies organized and give medications exactly as directed. * I maintain a clean, hazard‑free space by ensuring food, plants, and household items are out of reach. * I stay in communication with you, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. * I respect your home by locking up properly, turning off lights, and keeping everything just as I found it.

“Miru had a great time staying with Bianca! She went on hikes and had lots of fun playing with the other dogs Bianca was taking care of. It was clear she was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates. We would definitely book again.”

“Nicole & Cody go above and beyond! Our pup is always excited to see them and has a blast while in their care. They're super responsive and regularly send the cutest photos.”


“The best dog minder ever. Our Toby loves playing with Archie and gets excited when I mention going over to stay with him. Holly has become almost family to us. Very reliable, friendly.”
