We have experience caring for dogs, cats, chickens, bunnies, guinee pigs & hamsters to name a few. So long as your pets do not pose a danger to our pet sitter, and your care schedule abides by our Standards of Care, we’d love to meet them and learn how to care for them.

Our focus is on the in your home pet sitting side of pet care which allows pets to stay in their home environment and on a familiar schedule during your absence. Our goal is to match your routine and schedule, to the best of our ability, so your pets stay happy and stress-free. Remember: We can customize our services to match any pet care routine your household requires!

Absolutely! Just Fur Them strives to support whatever training methodology and routines your pets are accustomed to. To that end, we will follow all the training protocols you outline for us on walks/pet sits and overnights. Want Bella to stop at the corner before crossing? No problem. Should Andy sit before getting a treat? A-OK. Do you need us to avoid other dog-on-leash interactions? Sure thing! You can share this information a few ways: By updating your pet profile on the portal, showing / telling us at your initial meet & greet, or by uploading training documentation to your account. Please note: we only use positive reinforcement methods (food, treat, distraction, clicker, create training, etc.).

It’s so easy! Just Click Here, send an email: justfurthempetsitting@gmail.com, or call us at 509-850-0260 and tell us a little about you, your pets, and the service types you’re interested in. We’ll set you up with access to your personal client portal, set a time for a new client meet & greet, and you’re on your way. Even if you don’t have an urgent need for services, the sooner you become an established client, the sooner we can be of service.

Right away! As soon as your portal is activated and you’ve had your meet & greet, you can begin scheduling services.

Just Fur Them tailors our services to fit the needs of your household, thus, the initial meet & greet is a chance to get to know each other better. We’ll familiarize ourselves with you & your pets, their routine, your home, and to go over all the essential details and expectations for care. Our top priority is the health, safety and happiness of pets in our care; thus, we want to ensure we form a strong bond from the beginning. Your initial meet & greet is always free of charge for up to 45 minutes with your pet sitter. Once you’ve activated your portal, wrapped up the meeting and confirmed home access instructions, you’re well on your way to scheduling services anytime in the future.

Absolutely not! Not all household’s added pets require extra time and care. Because Just Fur Them values transparency in pricing, we are 100% time-based model—we only charge for the scheduled time it takes to provide quality care to your pets.

Nope! Since many of our services are scheduled one-household at a time, we can care for puppies who haven’t had all their shots yet, or older pups who may still be intact—no problem. Our sitters are sure to wash up before and after visits, so we can visit your pets safely between households. Our only limitation: we will need to skip the dog park and other group outings for now. Don’t fret, those services can be added on once vaccinations are up to date or they’re all healed from surgery. Note: Washington State does require at minimum the Rabies Vaccine.

While we can’t guarantee it ALL the time, there is a very good chance we can schedule a same-day service. Note: There will be an additional $5.00 charge if we are able to accommodate your request.

Indeed, we do! A holiday fee of $10.00 per household per day (not per appointment). Prime Holidays Include: Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day.

Sure thing! All our pet care staff will administer medication (pills, drops, supplements) with no charge to you.
