Top rated West Seattle house sitters

“Andy is incredibly caring, communicative, and empathetic sitter. Andy clearly connected with our pup: they played, went hiking, and he even gave Andy snuggles at night! We got great daily updates and when our flight times changed Andy adjusted instantly. Our pup was having tummy troubles when we left and Andy was comfortable and capable supporting him. I highly recommend Andy for any sitter needs.”


“Lisa was great. Very communicative throughout her stay with our pup and sent pictures each day which is always a big relief! She left our house super clean which is also a lovely thing to come home to.”


“Ellie did a great job watching my high anxiety pup! She also was very respectful of my house and left things very clean. I would definitely have her back to watch my girl.”


“Saghar was beyond fantastic watching our dog while we were gone. She provided us with comfort so we could relax on our trip knowing he was in good hands. Can’t wait to work with her again in the future!”

“Sara was great with my elderly cats and made me feel so much better about leaving them for the weekend. She rolled with the constantly changing medical and food needs in the lead up to my trip. We'd all happily have Sara come stay again!”


“Can't say enough good things about Rachel. She respected our home and took good care of our senior dog 2 cats. She gave us timely updates and we were able to relax during our getaway.”


“Taylor was super accommodating last minute care. Zoe was very receptive towards Taylor. Appreciate her being on time, great communication, picture and video updates. Felt at ease knowing Zoe was in good hands. Would love to gatekeep her so she’s available when we need, but she’s a must book!”


“Ricco was amazing, as always! He took such great care of my elderly dog, sticking to his routine, which is so important as he’s gotten older. Ricco kept me updated, took great care of my house, and was incredibly trustworthy. Even my red-eye return and early wake-up wasn’t an issue. Highly recommend Ricco for anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter!”


“Maiz is a wonderful human! Our dogs immediately felt comfortable and safe enough to eat on the first day of us being away (which doesn’t always happen). Maiz read all instructions diligently and followed all of our crazy helicopter parent requests. We received pictures and updates regularly so we knew our babies were safe and happy!”



About: I have experience with 18 years of taking care of dogs, cats, fish, and bunnies, of all different sizes. I have a special spot for special needs cats and dogs, and have the patience and the love to give them. I've been had animals of all kinds my whole life. I have been a cat shelter volunteer and foster mom on and off for some time now as well. I have unconditional love for all animals, and don't mind helping with training and/or medical needs. I have a chihuahuas mix and a boy cat at home, both very friendly, but have had dobermans, retrievers, labs, pit bulls, dachshunds, and all sorts of different kitties! Please let me know if you have any questions about anything! I work from home / remotely, so am available with a pretty flexible schedule, for mid-day walks or for pets who may need special attention. I am prioritizing West Seattle clients. Would love to forge a lifelong relationship with your pet, to be there whenever you may need an extra hand, or lap! I just made this account in August, and I’m more than happy to send some references from people that I have dogs sat for in the past! Be my first reviews! i live in an apartment right off of alki! daily walks along the beach and to the park are so important for me and my Bean, and I would be happy to have some 4 legged company! Additionally, I have a dog-stroller and sling I would love to use to get those less mobile friends some fresh air.


“Kristin is delightful! She stayed with our Goldendoodle, Emory, who didn’t miss us one bit — she was having too much fun. Kristin shared lots of pictures while we were gone, was very communicative, and took great care of Emmy. We’ll certainly have her come stay again!”

“Rachael was absolutely amazing while watching our dog and home for the weekend. She was great at communicating, sent tons of pictures, showed up exactly when she said she would, and took excellent care of Gus—even taking him to the beach, which he loved! Gus can be stressed when left alone for long periods, but Rachael was great about spending lots of time with him over the weekend. We will definitely be booking with her again.”


“Grant is a super sitter! Our pup is shy and slow to warm up to new people. Grant was patient, showed good instinct with a nervous nelly, and did a fantastic job. He was thorough in his prep for sitting. He asked great questions, provided frequent updates along the way, and we would highly recommend his services to anyone.”


“Amanda was the best! She stayed at our home and took care of our sweet dog. I’m 100% certain she took better care of her than we do. She was extremely responsive, very clean and tidy, provided lots of updates with pictures, and overall just made us feel very safe and secure. It was the exact peace of mind we needed. I would recommend Amanda to anyone.”


“Nancy’s first stay with my pets was exceptional. Being away (and out of cell service) for a week is a huge leap of faith and Nancy delivered in full and then some. The pets were happy and well tended. She left extensive notes and updates for my return and even when above and beyond in a handful of the responsibilities we had discussed. She will be my first stop for all future house sittings without a doubt 🧡🖤🖤🐾”


“Cynthia is fantastic! Very punctual, thorough and responsive, I feel so comfortable leaving my pets and house in her care. I had absolutely no worries being away for a few days. Came back to a clean house and happy cats. Will definitely ask Cynthia to take care of home and pets again!”


“Katherine was amazing! She did an overnight stay for a few days with my large dog Henry. She was super communicative and took extra care to make sure he was comfortable during the July 4 fireworks. I would definitely book her again.”


About: I started pet sitting to make some extra cash in grad school. I ended up falling in love with the rhythm and routine of caring for and really getting to know pets and their cute personalities :). I grew up with a beloved Shih Tzu, Gracie, and have her favorite toy on my bookshelf. I’m a therapist who just loves pets and whose apartment does not allow them :(. Let me fill that void by caring for yours ;)! As a therapist, I create my own schedule and am often available mornings, evenings, and sometimes midday. I work Monday-Thursdays and am free on Friday-Sundays. My priority is to make your pet feel safe. This often means letting them come to me in their own time. I prefer to pet-sit in your home and appreciate the less disruption it gives your pet. As for logistics of caring, as long as you give me detailed instructions, I will reliably execute! I will also likely send you updates with cute pictures of them :).
