About: I have experience with senior pets all the way to new born babies! Additionally, I have experience with other animals such as amphibians, farm pets, to fish! I am CPR certified and capable of administering antibiotics. I've taken care of my pets ever since I was a kid (I'm 20 now)! I am very ambitious about animals and showing the love and care they need. I have 4 fur babies that are wonderfully taken care of! I have 3 Dachshund mixes, and a German Shepherd mixed with a Great Pyrenees! My schedule is always open! And if not, I have no problem with setting that line of communication with my clients to be able to meet their needs and their pets needs! I have a retractable leash for the smaller dogs and a regular leash for the bigger dogs! Additionally a portable water bottle for hot walks! If no walks are needed? I have no problem spending time with either dogs or cats in the safety of their home environment!

She did an amazing job with all my animals. She was there on time to check up on them and followed all instructions for them. The pictures sent and communication was spot on. My cats can be very skittish around new people but they took to her well. I will definitely be using her again and will be one of my first to call when I need a sitter or a dog walker.

About: Loving in-home dog care by a massage therapist. Personalized attention, free outdoor access, and a calm, kennel-free environment. Your dog will feel safe and loved. Pet care fits easily into my routine—I live 5 minutes away, make my own schedule, and come home throughout the day to give attentive care. In my home, dogs enjoy free range indoors and out, regular supervision, personalized attention, and a calm, crate-free space where they feel safe, loved, and relaxed.

About: I enjoy caring for and being present with dogs. I am empathetic and always in tune with what others are feeling and need. I would love to hang out with your dogs! I have been around animals my entire life and find myself growing more drawn to caring for them every day. Currently, I do not have a dog of my own so I feel that taking care of your dogs would bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. I enjoy all types of dogs and personalities and would enjoy getting to know your dogs! I feel others would describe me as patient, balanced, and responsible. Whether I'm just watching your dogs for the day or for an extended period of time you will be able to rest easily because they will be in warm, loving care.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. After working in the fast-paced culinary world, I shifted gears in 2007 to run a full-scale pet care facility near Mt. Rainier. Later, I explored the insurance industry—but my heart never left the pack. Now, I’m back doing what I love most: caring for pets with experience, dedication, and a whole lot of tail wags. I work in town with a flexible schedule, so I can swing by during breaks to give your pet some love, care, and attention too. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, with a couple of visits each day. It’s a calmer, less stressful experience for your furry friend. I’m happy to stop by while you’re home at first, so your pet can see I’m a welcome guest. After a friendly introduction, I’ll carry out future visits just as smoothly—even if you’re away. For safety and peace of mind, I recommend crating your pet during my visits to avoid any unexpected issues with entry or territorial behavior.
