Pet

QR Code Link to This Post I can customize my services around your specific needs. We are available for overnight, day services, vacations, work trips, etc. Your home or mine. I have a large, fully fenced yard. Pricing starts at $25 for daycare. Rates vary based on length of stay, number of pets and the amount of care each pet requires. There is also a difference in pricing if we are sitting at your home or mine. When we house sit, we leave your home better than we found it. For an additional charge we can also provide a thorough cleaning to your home while you are away. Come back to a nice clean home and a happy pet. My home is quiet and laid back. I run my business from home so I'm home most all the time. I also have a helper, Michelle, that assists me with away stays. She covers for me if I have to be away for any length of time or if for any reason there would be an emergency. My pet, Princess Meow Meow, just loves the company of other animals. We are always available to do a meet and greet so you and your pet can come by and look everything over to see if we will be a good fit.

Here are just a few reviews:

We had Michelle stay with our animals for a week. We have a total of 8; 6 larger dogs and 2 cats. One of our dogs is a rescue that has been very slowly coming out of his shell but is still very scared of people and we have a 12 year old as well. We didn't want to stress them out by putting them in a kennel for a week. We were very pleased that we were able to do a trial run for a weekend to make sure the number of animals wasn't going to be overwhelming and that the animals would be happy with Michelle staying at the house. The trial run was a great success so we felt confident booking the full week.
During the week we were gone, Michelle sent us daily updates and pictures. We've never left the animals for this long before so we were pretty stressed initially. She very quickly made us feel secure that they were all being well taken care of. Our shy guy actually let her pet him, which was a first for him! No one has been able to pet him since we adopted him so he felt very much at ease with Michelle. Our 12 year old is also a bit achy at night and has a hard time getting up some mornings. Michelle took the initiative to create a warm little bed for him to ease the arthritis. That meant the world to me.
We came back to healthy and happy animals and we were stress free knowing they were in good hands the entire time. Michelle also swept the floors and cleaned our fridge for us, lit candles to create a welcoming feel when we walked in the door.
All in all, a very positive experience and we will definitely hire her again when we travel.
Thank you Michelle and Val for providing such a wonderful service!

We had Michelle taking care of our Pets and House for 5 days May 26th through the 30th. She took good care of our "Furry Kids" and even moved the sprinkler around to keep our newly planted grass growing. She sent daily photo updates of our animals, and they seemed very comfortable when we got home. When we got home, the house was clean, which was appreciated. We definitely would use Michelle again. Thanks!

Wow! I don't even know where to start. This was a wonderful experience. We got emails and updates on our furry kids. The house looked awesome when we got home. No muss, no fuss, and no worries about the kids in a kennel. Thanks for making this a worry free vacation.

Val started dog sitting for my Rhodesian Ridgeback when I had to travel for work. I soon started having her cleaning and doing laundry for me once a week and organizing my home since I work so much and don't have time for domestic stuff. Val will pick up Genghis if I'm running late for the airport and take him to the vet if he needs attention. She's done shopping for me and even has her workers take care of my yard. Her company can pretty much cover every service that I have needed. I can recommend Val for whichever service you may need.

Val was wonderful with my little baby shih tzu, Le Le. She treated him like he was her own and sent me updates with photos because she knew I missed him. Thanks so much, VAL.

Val has been our pet sitter for several years. Sometimes she sits at our house, and sometimes she takes Ruby to her house. She interacts very well with Ruby, and Ruby loves her. The last time we were gone for 2 weeks. Val emailed us pictures and updates regularly. She even spent time training Ruby. Val is a very trustworthy, honest person. We are blessed to have her as our sitter.

Val took care of our bichon for two days while we were out of town. It was the first time we had left our dog with someone who was not a family friend, and Sunny was immediately comfortable with Val. She was safe, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed Val. We will happily use Val again.

I actually was in Tacoma for a concert and asked if someone would be willing to stay in my hotel room with my German Shepherd, Axel from 8:00pm until we got back around 2:30am in the morning. I got an immediate response from Val who connected me with Michelle. Michelle was extremely punctual, polite, easy to talk to and trustworthy. We left our hotel room full of new shopping items from our spree earlier that day (value of $300+) and nothing was touched nor did we even worry about her doing that. My dog is my child and I can't even let family members watch him, but Michelle was so honest, kind, understanding, and so easy to talk to that I could confidently leave her with my dog all night without worrying about him and his safety. What an amazing experience. If I ever stay in Tacoma again, I will absolutely be using Val or Michelle again. Raving client here!!

I headed out of town for a week over the Christmas holiday. After meeting Val and taking a walk around her home I felt very confident with having my girl, Ellie, stay while I was gone. Val lives off of a fairly busy street, but she has a fully fenced yard and on top of that is very careful with keeping dogs on leash at first until they figure out their boundaries. She also made sure to get an idea of the rules and training I keep with Ellie to keep things consistent. Val sent along some photos while I was away, just to make sure I knew what a good time my girl was having without me! Thank you, Val, for taking care of my crazy little lady!

I have many more that I would be happy to share with.
