“Azure is a treasure! Pepe received the best care and made the unpleasant experience of getting an insulin shot a positive one. He did so well in her care while we were away. Thank you Azure!!!”

“Lizz was great! She was very reliable and very professional. You can tell right away that she really has a love of animals. She was very responsible with regards to the instructions we left for our dog Buster. Definitely looking forward to hiring her again soon.”

About: I really enjoy meeting all kinds of cats and dog and appreciate their quirky personalities. It's especially great when I get the change to develop relationships with them from repeat connections. I'm current unemployed and will likely be working online part-time, seeking work, or doing online research projects. So, my time and place are very flexible. One of my dogs is difficult/unpredictable with other dogs, so I'm likely to do care away. (My dogs are probably a little TOO interested in cats.)

About: Hello Homeowners and proud pet moms and dads! We are Kiana and Flynn, and we are interested in taking care of your fur babies and homes. Flynn and Kiana have been together for three years. Flynn currently works with the Port of Bellingham as a Park Host down at the Portal village, while Kiana is a Crew Member at Trader Joe's. Our schedules usually differ, so we won't leave your animals alone for long! We both have tons of experience dog- and cat-sitting with a variety of pet needs and personalities. We can't wait to meet your Pets and their owners! Kiana and Flynn currently are living a pet sitting life! In order to save money while Kiana is finishing up school, we have been moving from place to place taking care of all types of dogs and cats instead of paying rent. Our schedules alternate Monday, Tuesday, and the weekends. We have Wednesday, Thursday and Friday off together so there will almost always be someone with your pet. We treat the animals like they are our own. We want the pets to have a good time with us and not be stressed out. It should be fun, light and an adventure for all of us!

“I am so thankful to have found Bodhi! Knowing my pets are well cared for made it so I could enjoy my trip without worrying about a thing. While away, my smoke detector low- battery sensor started to go off (it’s really loud and beeps every minute) Bodhi saved the day by replacing the batteries and resetting the detectors. Bodhi is incredible and gained my cats trust very quickly, AND went above and beyond making sure they are well taken care of and the house and their spaces are as well. Thank you so much, Bodhi!!”

About: Hi, I'm Irene :)! I'm an all around animal lover, but especially dogs. I have a husky named Nova, so I have experience caring for and understanding dogs and cats of different personalities (huskies are part cat too, right?). I love spending time with them, playing, going for a walks, hikes, runs and making sure they're happy and safe. Although I enjoy activity daily, I also can handle the needs and care for lower energy/senior dogs. I'm responsible, punctual, and just enjoy being around animals. I'd be delighted to take care of your dogs or cats! I’m home most of the day since I study remotely. I might go out for a couple of hours to run errands, but aside from those times, I’m usually either at home or out in the mountains with my dog, Nova. So pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to give her plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship :) I would preferably care for pets in their own home, as my apartment is fairly small. I love keeping dogs active and happy through walks, runs, and hikes when appropriate and with the owners’ approval. And of course, lots of love, attention, and playtime! I’m also happy to follow each pet’s routine and the owners’ instructions to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for

“Sophia just took care of our cat for a second time, and she was very communicative and helpful :) we definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter in the area”

“Clara was amazing! She was flexible, communicated great throughout the whole process, and was incredibly patient with my shy dog. She was able to gain his trust and help him feel comfortable so quickly, which meant so much to me. I felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Clara and book with her again! 🐾❤️”

“Morgan was AMAZING taking care of our two dogs during the holiday super storm! Our senior had some unexpected accidents while we were away and Morgan went above and beyond making sure everything was clean when we got back! THANK YOU!!!”

“Monzerrat is very communicative. I also appreciate her flexibility with scheduling.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up with 3 dogs and taking care of animals is a passion of mine. I have taken care of dogs that have cancer and other health issues so I am comfortable with giving medications and working with challenges that may arise with any dog! I live with a cat that I take care of daily and when I am back home, I am the fulltime caregiver for my 3 dogs. I know a dog's routine and what they need to happy and healthy, and I work around their schedule with anything I have going on. In your home I will respect it and treat it like my own. Any care instructions such as kenneling or a bedtime routine I will follow exactly as they are laid out for me.

“Madeline was super responsive, and I came home to two happy cats. I would feel totally safe leaving them in her care again!”

About: I currently have 2 dogs of my own that I’ve had since puppies, so I understand both the fun and responsibility that come with caring for pets. I’m especially comfortable with medium and large dogs, young and energetic dogs, and dogs who need a little patience while they get comfortable with a new person. I have experience with everything from puppy energy and leash manners to post-surgery care. I know that every dog has their own quirks, preferences, and rules, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely rather than assuming what works for my dogs will work for yours. I’m also a physician assistant; being dependable, detail-oriented, observant, and calm in unexpected situations comes naturally to me. While my medical background is human rather than veterinary, I’m comfortable following detailed medication or care instructions and paying attention to changes in behavior or condition that may need to be brought to an owner’s attention. Most importantly, I treat pets as members of the household rather than a chore to check off a list. I want your dog to get the exercise, attention, affection, and consistency they’re used to while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule which gives me plenty of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate daytime, evening, and weekend care, and I can often be flexible with timing depending on your pet’s usual routine. I’m currently taking a couple online courses finishing my doctorate, so most of my schedule can be arranged around pet-care commitments. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where I can follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feedings, walks, medications, crating, and any household-specific instructions. I know many pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I’m careful to respect both their routine and your home. For pets staying with me, I have a fenced yard on an acre of land at a dead end quiet street. I have 2 friendly, higher-energy dogs of my own; I would always want to make sure personalities and play styles are a good fit before having dogs spend extended time together, and I’m comfortable using crates or separate spaces when needed. I pay close attention to secure doors and gates, leash safety, feeding instructions, interactions between pets, and any behavioral or medical concerns you let me know about. My goal is to keep things calm, safe, and as consistent with your pet’s normal routine as possible.

About: Reliable, active, and caring pet lover who enjoys walks, trails, and keeping pets happy. Your pets will get the Fun, Active treatment and sure to be safe, loved, and well cared for! I am a University Student with booked afternoons, but available early mornings and late nights. Depending on you and your pets schedule, I can care for your pets any day even Weekends! I enjoy long walks through trails and beaches with my pets, and enjoy letting them swim and play fetch to run out all those zoomiez.

“Meredith is amazing with our sensitive puppy and even more amazing communicating with both of us who were anxious to leave her. On one of her drop-in visits she also helped problem solve why our son said she was upset in her crate the prior night, removing and replacing her bedding. She gave her extra treats and informed us she seemed happy in her crate when she left which was a huge relief that allowed us to go back to focusing on our trip!”

“This is our second time using Melissa and she was great! Quick, responsive, and obviously our dog was happy. :)”

About: I have grown up with dogs, and truly have passion and love for everyone I meet. I have watched dogs for families consistently for around 5 years. I love creating a connection with the animals I watch. I have watched cats as well, and love their calm energy. I am a college student at Western Washington University. I am a Recreation Management and Leadership major with a communications minor. My class load is normally during the mornings, never spanning too late in the afternoons. I enjoy spending time with friends and have hobbies. If I am hired, I would be out for a portion of the day, but will be there for early evenings to mornings. Because I am a college student, I am only willing to take care of animals at a clients home. I am able to be flexible but I cannot compromise on this.

About: I’ve spent my entire life growing up around many types of animals and was always taught to treat each one like family 🩵 I started caring for others pets around 12 years old and have taken care of many species and breeds of animals, owned multiple exotic animals of my own (frogs currently🐸), co-ran a pet sitting business for multiple years where I was watching up to 13+ animals at some points, and am comfortable with every breed-from the never ending energy of a border collie to taking it easy with a senior dog or sitting with them for an hour just to earn a little trust for anxious pups. I am a young, responsible and professional adult, I love the outdoors and taking dogs out into it, I am someone who thrives in an organized environment and am patient and more than willing to work with animals that need to build trust. My top priority is always the safety and happiness of the pets I take care of, always ensuring they are getting the mental stimulation they need as well as knowing their behavior and being able to accordingly keep them in situations they are comfortable and happy in. I work part time as a baker, I have the most availability saturday-Monday, but am available most weekday evenings. I love getting out into nature and am very willing to work with you to fit dog walks, sits or whatever else you may need with my schedule! I live in a house in a quiet neighborhood with a small yard, it’s directly across from whatcom falls park and I have lots of access to great trails and the river. I always carry everything I might need in any emergency situation with an animal I’m taking care of, I am very aware of my surroundings and am very good at catching animals behaviors before any situation has escalated and am able to prevent them, from both my animals and strangers. I have spent lots of time training and many hours learning about animals and the physical warnings they show in discomfort, I have always been able to safely remove or prevent my own pets as well as clients from a stressful situation. I have no trouble standing up for my animal if a stranger isn’t taking proper care of theirs and will always put myself between them and harms way.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. My family especially loves goldens, but all dogs have my heart. I have two at home (golden 4yrs, golden doodle 12yrs) that I have helped train and take care of. I also have a variety of experience dog sitting from taking care of a little shnauzer to 3 big dobermans. If you need someone to keep your pet healthy and have company while you're away, I'm your gal! I am available everyday apart from Tuesdays (especially in the morning and evening). My schedule is pretty flexible, but that means it is often changing. Please feel free to reach out with your dates and we can work something out! I will ensure to keep your dog remaining healthy and loved in their own space in your home. I will make sure to follow instructions for walking, feeding, etc and keep your home mess free and safe at all times. I have experience with house training and dog walking/ sitting with all types of dogs including seniors and high energy puppies!
