About: I have had dogs my entire life and been part of all of their life phases. I am currently dealing with a puppy, middle aged high energy man, and senior of my own! I have plenty of practice cleaning up messes, doing constant potty breaks, giving specific food recipes, hiding medicine in treats, and lots and lots of playing! I can assure you your puppies will be in good hands with me and we will have lots of fun together :) I am a current student and have a part time job, however I do have lots of free time in weekends and certain days during the week. I am flexible and will gladly help out whenever possible! I will not be able to offer pet sitting in my home, so your babies will be comfortable in their own home with all their toys and treats!

About: This is my first time trying to get into professional pet care, however, I have spent my entire life living with and taking care of pets. There hasn’t been a single moment where I have lived without cats or a dog in my home. I absolutely love getting to spend time with these animals as I find their companionship to be so rewarding. I find many animals seem to enjoy my own company, whether it’s due to my calm nature or inability to refuse petting them if they ask for it! I have no special skills to report, but I will say that I am happy to learn all there is about your furry best friend(s) to make sure you, and more importantly, they, are comfortable and happy. I’m currently available any day of the week to take care of your pets! No time is a bad time for me, unless it is very late in the day. I will care for your pets in your home by following any instructions you have given me for their safety and care and always keep an eye and ear on them. If I am taking your dog on a walk, I will make sure we stay clear of any visible signs of safety hazards and confrontation with other dogs/people.
“The best choice could make to trust them with my Sofy and house!! Came last night and thanks to them that keep me posted all the time with pictures, really enjoy vacations knowing all good:). Really recommend them!!!!”
About: 20 years of animal care experience. Co-founder of Sacred Pawz animal rescue, where safety, health and well-being of all animals is my number one priority. I am an RN who works remotely from home, and can work from anywhere. My home is on 5 acres and I can board up to 2 dogs from the same household in my home, they just become part of the family while boarding with me. I can also do in home sits since my work schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere. Safety and well-being are my top priority when watching animals. Since I run a rescue and deal with what we call “flight risks” frequently, I am well versed in how to keep dogs safe and avoid escape. As a surgical nurse for over 30 years, my medical training combined with my rescue experience of over 15 years provides me with the necessary skillsets to take care of your pets medical needs should they have any, and what to do in the case of an emergency. My work with rescue dogs has also necessitated me to work with many trainers over the years. Although not a certified trainer, I have experience in working with behaviorally challenged dogs using positive training methods. Your dog will be in competent hands either in my home or yours while I am pet sitting.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since elementary school. Training horses and dogs has been my passion. Understanding dogs instincts and pack language helps me better serve their unique needs and personalities. My 35 years of animal care encompasses dog sitting, training, flying cross country on cabin with pup, breeding, and rearing physically and emotionally solid pups. I’ve ventured with my 4-legged buddies on hikes, walks, beach trips, long car drives, hotel stays, retirement homes, schools, river floats, horse rides, ranch work, and river walks. Living in the beautiful PNW there’s always fun to have with our pooches! I’m a work at home mom with four children and a beautiful tribe of animal, loving people. Kids and animals have routines to thrive. There’s always someone home to be with the dogs so no fur babe left behind on our watch. We go places the dogs can ride with us. Exploring the logging roads and nature walks are everyone’s favorite. Fenced yard and doggo doors allow for in and out as they please while at home. Routine starts with breakfast. Then it’s playtime with the kids while farm chores take place. If your dog eats 3x a day we’ll do lunch, more playtime, rest time since this is equally as important. Mental stimulation to stay sharp means using snuffle rugs, treat dispensers, hand feeding meals while reinforcing manners and obedience. My kids have a schedule and boundaries as do the animals giving everyone peace of mind.

Korina B.
“You would be lucky if you could get Korinna to take care of your most special friend. I am forever, grateful to her as she was the breeder of one of the best friends (Mae) I’ve ever had. I learned how much she cared about these animals going through the process of qualifying to own one of her dogs. Mae is now 2 1/2 years old and Korinna and I still text back-and-forth sharing pictures and stories about Mae and her litter-mates. Last year I was in a jam as our regular vacation, dog watcher, my parents, we’re out of town and I called Korinna to see if she would think about taking May for five days. I couldn’t think of anybody else that I’d rather have her with! I dropped her off at Korinna‘s farm, where she ran around with a number of Korinna‘s own dogs. She has a fantastic place for dogs, to run and have fun, and also her own children who love to play with them as well! Mae got a lot of love while she was there. I got a number of videos while I was on vacation of Mae running and playing with other dogs and her children. Korinna has a ton of experience caring for these animals, has a very close relationship with a local veterinary clinic, has a fantastic yard and home to houses and support them, and a ton of love to give. Like I said to begin with, you would be lucky if she has room for your four-legged friend!”
