“Shelby is an excellent sitter. We burdened her with a litany of tasks for our three cats: litter boxes, food, water, water fountains, meds, and she handled them with professionalism and efficiency. She got her share of surprises too, including some cat vomit. Again, not rattled. Shelby did everything we asked of her, and was so attentive to our cats, playing with them in between tasks and sending boatloads of pictures. Her report cards are detailed and yet concise. Highly recommend her.”


“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!”


“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!”


About: Reliability!! I dog sat for many families back in Florida while earning my bachelors/masters. While I don’t have a dog of my own I will treat yours like my own. I work Monday-Friday so I would be able to check-in/walk dogs in the evening. Most of my weekends are free so I would love to fill my time by spending it with pets! I will not be able to care for pets in my own home. However, I have dog sat for several families in their own home.

“Jody was so helpful to us with a last minute request for a check-in for our two senior Boston terriers. She was quick to respond to our questions and set up a meet and greet the following day. Our dogs loved her and it made it possible for us to make a day trip without worrying about pet care. We would highly recommend her.”


“She did all tasks she agreed to, in the timeframe agreed. She gave very detailed updates and really seemed to care that my cats were ok during my family vacation.”


About: I love all animals! I have previously owned and trained a Belgian Malinois rescue and a lab/pit rescue. Both wonderful dogs. I am a navy vet, dog owner and dog lover. I use positive reinforcement training methods, and I know how to read the body languages of animals. I am respectful, neat, and I'll make sure you pet is well taken care of! I offer dog sitting, and occasional boarding services. You can rest easy with the knowledge that if you hire me, they will be my number one priority. I will communicate at least once a day, and more if requested. I live in an apartment and WFH full time, so I'll be able to provide ample attention to your dog! Not that they might need it because my puppy Orion will be begging them to play nonstop! I monitor play time continuously to make sure they get along well. Sometimes if a client's dog DOESN'T want to play I make sure Orion leaves them alone. He'll just be whining on the couch. No matter the size of your dog, I'll make sure they are safe and comfortable. Orion has had experience playing with 100lb German shepherds and snauzers to mini pinchers. He loves all dogs that will play with him.

“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!”


“My dog absolutely loves spending time with Zoe. She is a very courteous house sitter, and a great communicator. She will regularly check in via rover messenger when she has questions. Would recommend her services to friends and family.”


“Amy was wonderful. She was extremely professional throughout the entire process and showed sincere concern for both our Sammie and our anxiety. We have an older dog who has never been left alone before and we were pretty anxious about leaving her for 9 days. Right from our initial "meet & greet" Amy eased our apprehension on leaving Sammie. Amy showed up at the agreed upon times and provided texts and photos with every visit. Our time away was more enjoyable knowing our Sammie was in good hands. Highly recommend Amy and will gladly use her services again.”


“I had to cancel with Kimberly because my Lady was hospitalized before my vacation started but she was so gracious and responsive and kind. Got back to me very quickly every time I had a question. I look forward to using her in the future”


About: Let me be besties with your pet! My schedule has a lot of flex. I also accept last minute reservations. *I have military base access.* My schedule is extremely flexible so I can provide services most days and nights. I’m trustworthy in your space and want the best for your pet. I have a fully fence backyard with plenty of space to ruuuuuun! I have two friendly pups who are fully vaccinated and love having friends over.

About: I grew up with dogs, and have been a dog sitter for friends and family for as long as I can remember. As a teen, I didn't babysit much, but I would often dog sit for the neighbors. I can't wait to go for walks, play fetch, and cuddle up with your fur babies. Dogs have always loved me, and I love dogs! I'm very good at understanding a dog's body language and reading their moods. I'm very patient and know your dog will be missing you, and I know how important it is that they feel loved while you are away. I am available to walk your dog at least twice a day, minimum 30 minutes each session. And I'm available for potty breaks all day.

“Jeremy has been an amazing dog sitter for my drop-in visits! He’s always great at communicating and consistently keeps me updated with pictures, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. My dog can be a bit wary of new people, but Jeremy was incredibly patient and took the time to build trus which I really appreciate. It’s clear he genuinely cares about animals, and I feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands with him. Highly recommend!”


About: Hello! I'm Zoe, a lifelong animal lover and teacher with the Bainbridge Island School District since 2020. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, including pet sitting and walking pups of all sizes and temperaments. My family includes my sweet rescue dog Friday (a 9-year-old pittie mix) and my adventurous 3-year-old daughter Rooney. We love spending time outdoors and can often be found exploring the beaches and trails around Bainbridge together. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet snuggles, or playtime in the yard, I’ll treat them like part of the family! I have weekends off and enjoy spending time at home with my pets. During the week, I work from 8am-2:30pm. I work 5 minutes away from home and would be able to check on any pet at least once a day. I feed pets as needed, provide daily walks and preferred exercise either on a leash out and about, at a dog park, or in my fully fenced backyard. I am happy to provide interactive treats that meet a dog's dietary needs and provide enrichmentk.

“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!”


“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 🤙”



About: With over 15 years of active pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of caring for animals, I bring compassion, playful attentiveness, and calm confidence to every home I visit. In 2024, I spent four months road-tripping across the U.S., housesitting along the way and caring for 7 cats and 14 dogs in 10 households—ranging widely in breed, age, temperament, and needs. This experience left me especially comfortable quickly building trusting relationships with new animals and adapting to their individual personalities. I have extensive experience with medically complex pets, including administering pills and liquid medications, giving injections, and providing wound care. I understand the importance of consistent routines, detailed observation, and gentle handling when working with animals who require special attention. Whether caring for playful puppies, senior cats, or anything in between, I offer dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work four days a week, Thurs-Sun in the afternoon and evening. On work days, I am available in the morning and late-evening. Mon-Wed I have full availability for all types of care. I prioritize safety and active stimulation for my own pets and those I care for. In addition to maintaining feeding schedules and security, I make sure those animals in my care receive exercise and mental stimulation, depending on their needs.

“We were so lucky to have Margaret as our cat sitter! She was incredibly attentive and caring towards our cats during our absence. Each day, she provided us with updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear she spent quality time with our pets, not just feeding them but also playing and cuddling. The house was tidy and the cats were happy and healthy upon our return. Margaret's passion for animals is evident, and her professionalism is unmatched. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter. Thanks, Margaret, for your wonderful service!”

Overall a great experience, Zi is very attentive and I think my cat is now even a lil more open to new people after seeing that theyre not all scary! :)”
