“Shelby dropped in to spend some time with our 10 month old lab while we were in town for a wedding. She was quick to respond and send updates, as well as send a thorough follow up with photos after leaving. We’re so thankful she was able to spend time with our pup on short notice!”
“Cindy is so polite, respectful, and kind. She's been helping me for awhile (1-2x daily) with my 8 month old golden retriever puppy since I broke my leg. She is very calming and soothing with an energetic pup, and has great training suggestions. She has also offered to help beyond just walking the dog since it's been hard for me to move around, which is so sweet of her. I highly recommend Cindy for any of your pet care needs!”
“Jody is a wonderful cat sitter. She fed, played & cuddled with Cheeto daily for close to a month, sending frequent pictures. It was obvious to us that Cheeto was quite comfortable with her as well as enjoying visits from her 8 yo son. Jody communicated when a battery in our water shutoff system needed to be recharged. And moved a few unexpected packages into the house. We would highly recommend her services as she is extremely personable & trustworthy.”
“Amy did a really great job in taking care of our dog and 2 cats. We got regular updates and pictures which we loved! She went above and beyond and took extra time in caring for the pets!”
“Tanesha has been working out great! She is reliable and always gives me a detailed note with pics on how the visit went. I feel 100 percent at ease with my fur kids in her hands. Happy to have found her!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Naiomi. She came over twice a day for drop ins for over a week and took such great care of our dogs. She spent time playing with them, walked them, took on a last minute drop in, and even cleaned up after the dogs. She is professional, her communication was great and she took great pictures of our dogs. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was 12. I have dog sat all types and ages of dogs. I have also owned dogs my whole life. Your dog will come back tired and happy for an adventurous day exploring. I am currently not working and have a very flexible schedule to take your dog out for a walk or to the Bainbridge dog park (if you prefer) at any hour of the day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s beloved dog very seriously. I follow all instructions carefully, whether it’s leash protocols, feeding, medications, or preferred walking routes. I believe in clear communication, so you’ll always receive updates and photos during our time together. I also take time to get to know each dog’s temperament, energy level, and comfort zone to make sure they feel safe and happy while in my care. I care for others dogs the way I want my dog to be cared for.
“We booked this last minute with Amy and we were so happy she was available. She is really nice and flexible, she took good care of our 2 dogs We received updates with videos and pictures on a regular basis, the dogs were well taken care of and had a splendid time with her :)”
“Kimberly took incredible care of our two cats while we were out of the country! One cat is very old and needs subcutaneous fluids and special attention while she eats and Kimberly made sure she got exactly what she needed. I highly recommended her services! Especially if you have pets that need special care.”
“Matthew was great checking in on our pups and providing us with some peace of mind while we had to head into the city. During the meet and greet, Matthew was so polite and asked very thoughtful questions about the hopes/expectations for our drop-in visits. We came to home to happy dogs and wouldn’t hesitate to request him for future services. Thank you Matthew.”
“Allison has done a great job of taking care of my boy for drop in visits. Shes dependable and I look forward to her reports she fills out with pictures. I don’t have to worry when I’m away!”
About: I've been around animals most of my life and have spent lots of time taking care of them whether they be my own, friends, or relatives Just finished my first year at college and currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time available to help out however I can. If they are low energy I usually stay inside with them, take them out when needed, make sure they have water, fed at the right time, etc. If they're high energy then I take them for a walk, play in a fenced yard, nearby dog park, or if there is a good place inside the house to do so then maybe there as well. It all comes down to what the pets need at what time.
“This is our second time having Elana watch our two cats and she was great again! She is very responsive and good with the cats, highly recommend!”
“Jacob was wonderful, and took care of my cat, even during the last snow storm and terrible road conditions. He also sent me pictures and daily updates, and my cat was relaxed and happy when I returned. The communication was great and Jacob is very reliable and judging from the pictures my cat loved him!”
“Tim is great with our boys Kane & Stanley! We have him to our home every week, and he's helped us out when we've been in a bind on more than one occasion!”
About: I usually introduce myself as Bailey – Irish Cream, Bailey – every yellow lab I’ve ever met, or Bailey – from WKRP in Cincinnati. And yes, it’s my real name, guess I was destined to be a dog lover! I grew up in the beautiful PNW with my grandparents, where we raised dachshunds and had a few beloved springer spaniels. One of my favorite photos ever is from my senior pictures—featuring Miss Margaret May, our sweet spaniel. Check it out in my photo gallery! My first dachshund, Corky, came into my life when I was 13, and he’s still with me today. He’s my heart dog—wherever I went, he went too. I promise to show your dog (or cat!) the same love, patience, and loyalty I’ve always given my own. These days, I’m a proud fur mama to: Corky – 16, Doxie, my heart dog Isabeau – 6, rescue Chiweenie and reactive spitfire Lillian – 6, rescue Tabby mix with an old lady soul Jinx – 8, gentle giant Bombay Nico the Freako – 4, rescue Blue Tabby mix and certified chaos goblin I have hands-on dog sitting experience with primarily small to large breeds, as well as cats. I’m confident handling oral medications, senior care, shy pets, and animals with big personalities. Whether it’s puppy zoomies or slow senior strolls, I meet each pet where they are and make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I currently work at a school on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, from 7:30a.m.-2:00p.m and I am off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Which means plenty of time for early morning drop in's, dinner dates, and scheduled evening playtime, snuggles, and walks. Wednesdays I am not available. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your space like I’m an honored guest. I respect your routines, your belongings, and your pet’s comfort above all. To keep you connected and reassured, I’m happy to leave detailed notes about what we did during our visit—and send photo updates if you’d like. My goal is to make sure your fur babies receive the loving attention and quality care you not only pay for, but truly expect.

“Went above and beyond! So very thankful for Lisa’s help with my animals. I had a cat and rabbit and she took excellent care of both, even cleaned their cage areas and gave them lots of love and pictures!”
“Kara is a fantastic animal car provider! My previous provider had moved and Kara seamlessly stepped in. I have an elder dog with specific medical needs and Kara fulfilled all our needs. She is a great communicator and true professional!”
“Lindsey was absolutely wonderful with my two cats for the week that I was out of town 💕💯😺 She was very thorough in meeting their care requirements and went well beyond my expectations! She has sat for my two cats twice now, and, I will definitely be booking her in the future!!! Highly recommend 🤙”

Micaela assisted us on one day notice and was incredibly kind, attentive, and thourough in caring for our three kitties and garden while we were away. Our family recommends her services highly.
Our pup had an amazing time with Kara and Abby! They took time to understand our pup's needs and took good care of her. We will definitely use them again.
Jennifer is amazing!! She has watched my cat before and I felt so much better leaving town, knowing she was going to be there to check in. Jennifer sends detailed notes about how your animal is doing and sends great pictures. Highly recommend going with Jennifer for her services!
