Pet Sitting Western Washington University

“Lizz was great! She gave us regular updates and made sure our kitty swallowed her pills (never an easy task). She communicated well and showed up right on time. I would happily book her again!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about our sitter Jenna! ❤️ I was away for 8 days while moving my son to college, and knowing Bentley was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind. She had amazing communication and sent me so many pictures and updates of Bentley throughout my trip. She took him on his walks, gave him his treats, played with him, and spent lots of quality time with him. It was obvious how much she genuinely cared about him—and Bentley absolutely loved her! 🐾❤️ She went above and beyond by even wiping down my counters and keeping me updated on how things were going at my house while I was away. Those little extra touches meant so much to me. Leaving Bentley for 8 days was hard, but she made it so much easier knowing he was happy, and well cared for. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, responsible, and attentive to care for their pets and home. We will definitely be using her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Arianna was awesome, able to come meet our cats and start drop-in visits on short notice while we were away for vacation. She was proactive, responsive, genuinely sweet with the cats, great about sending pics, and took care of everything we needed. Thank you so much Ari! Will definitely book again next time.”

“Azure was happy to do a meet and greet for our first time using her services. She and our cats clicked right away!! She did everything we asked of her, communicated the entire time and sent great updates and photos from her drop-ins. We came home to happy and relaxed cats which made us happy and relaxed pet parents. We will definitely be requesting Azure again in the future.”

“Flannery is great with my dogs! They are better behaved after she has been taking care of them. They get lots of exercise and love. Flannery is my very first choice when I need someone for my dogs!”

Dianne R.

“Sophia is the sweetest. I forgot to cancel a drop in and she showed up and was so gracious about me wasting her time. She's so sweet with my pups and they love her! My little one, Mabel, recently got injured and I really appreciated that Sophia followed my special instructions to carry her out to the yard and back so Mabel didn't make her injury worse. Thank you Sophia!”

About: I have always been a reliable pet sitter for family, friends, and neighbors. Whether it be an energetic puppy or a slower paced senior dog, I’m happy to spend time caring for our furry friends and keeping those tails wagging! Currently available during the weekdays. Happy to help make your family’s life easier with one less thing to worry about! I love being outdoors and going for walks in my free time, so including a pet is very easy to add into my schedule. I am very cautious in most aspects of life, but especially when it comes to caring for animals. I was always raised with the mentality of “safer is better than sorry” and I stick to it! I treat pets with the kindness, care, and love that they all deserve. I also believe highly in integrity. Coming to a client’s home is treated with respect and privacy. I’m happy to help with your dog walking/pet sitting needs to make your life easier!

“Pearl is very kind and friendly. I loved the pictures of my cats!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, safe environment. I’m patient, attentive to routines, and comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need extra reassurance. I communicate clearly with owners and make sure pets get plenty of love, exercise, and consistency while you’re away. I am also able to take care of farm animals. I have experience with horses, goats and chickens. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins so each pet gets consistent attention. I’m reliable with routines and enjoy making pets a regular, important part of my day. I provide a safe, loving environment whether I’m in your home or mine. Pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and rest according to their routines. I follow any instructions carefully, keep spaces clean, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

About: My pet care experience began when I joined a humane society volunteer program where I worked for 6 years and became a shift lead. Later, I worked at a doggy daycare and overnight pet hotel. There I worked with specific dog’s needs and care as well as managed a group of up to 60 free-roaming dogs (yes, it was as amazing as it sounds) I have worked as a pet sitter and dog walker for most of my life, and I have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have also worked with horses for most of my life and in the summers I care for horses on a large farm. They are pretty much a bunch of big, funny, puppies. I am formally trained in: -Dog first aide and CPR -Dog, cat, and small animal body language and care -Dog Bathing -Basic obedience training I am currently a recent WWU graduate working a part-time job. Being in my gap year after school, most of my time is flexible and social. I’m looking to fill some of my free time working with cute pets! While I do have a good foundation in general pet care, pet safety, and dog behavior, I prioritize the individual needs of the dog. I may have experience with many pets but no one knows your dog better than you. Care, to me, is about open communication and making sure your pup is happy!

About: Hi, I'm so excited to meet your pet! What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on background in animal welfare. As a volunteer at PAWS and a former intern at Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, I have spent hundreds of hours working directly with a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. This professional training means I am deeply familiar with dog body language, safety protocols, and positive reinforcement techniques. I know how to read a dog's subtle cues to keep them feeling safe, calm, and happy. Because of my experience with rescue environments, I specialize in: -Building trust with shy, nervous, or anxious dogs -Managing high-energy or reactive pups with patience and composure -Strict safety and leash habits to ensure your dog is always secure Whether your pet needs an active walking buddy or a patient caregiver who respects their boundaries, I bring a calm, shelter-tested approach to every visit. I can't wait to give your pet the high-quality, attentive care they deserve! I’m currently a Freshman at WWU! I only have three classes so I have plenty of time to spare to take furry friends for walks! Because of my shelter and sanctuary background, safety is a habit for me. When I’m in your home, I practice a strict "double-barrier" rule so your pet never has a chance to slip out the front door, and I always check that harnesses and leashes are totally secure before heading out. My eyes are 100% on your dog during walks—no headphones or phone scrolling—so I can spot loose dogs or triggers ahead of time. I am completely comfortable giving medications on your exact schedule, whether it's pills, liquids, or topical treatments. I treat your space with total respect, meaning I'll always wipe muddy paws, wash out food bowls, and leave your house exactly how I found it, keeping you updated with honest notes and photos along the way.

About: I have dog walking and sitting experience for giant all the way down to miniature breeds. I also have a lot of experience with multi-dog households. I adore all animals but dogs have my whole heart and you can place full trust in me to do right by your dog. I am a college student so when I am not actively attending class on campus, I can be with your pet. I am very active and am happy to run, walk, or take your pet to the park frequently. As I live in an apartment with roommates and a cat that is not my own, I don’t plan to take your pet to my home.

“Leslie was amazing with my two pups and such a great find for a last minute booking! She was accommodating and great with communication. This was my first time using Rover and I was not sure how my pups would be with a new person as one of them can be anxious. They warmed up to Leslie right away and there were no issues. I appreciated the detailed check ins and pictures at every visit and felt very reassured my dogs were being well taken care of. I will definitely be using Leslie again! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up owning and caring for many different dogs and cats, from small Chihuahuas to a Great Dane, so I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve also cared for up to five dogs at a time, so I’m comfortable keeping up with multiple pets and making sure each one gets the attention and care they need. I’m also a proud cat mom to two cats of my own, and they mean the world to me! I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and animals are my happy place!! I’m currently studying to become a vet tech, which has always been a dream of mine. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and exercise! I live in Bellingham and attend school full-time online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Since I’m able to do my schoolwork from home, I have plenty of availability throughout the week for pet care. I’m flexible with different days and times and can work around each pet’s routine and needs. I’ll always make sure your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while following their normal routines. I’ll keep my phone on me so you can reach me anytime, and I’m always happy to send updates and pictures!
