We moved to the area 1.5yrs ago and were on the look for a reliable pet sitter. A neighbor recommended Ponderosa Patty, we have used her services since and could not be happier! We have 5 dogs and 2 guinea pigs, at one point we had 2 chickens. She has taken care of all of them! 2 of our dogs are special needs requiring their bladder/bowels to be expressed on a strict schedule another one is on meds twice/day. Patty has been great. She was willing to come learn how to express their bladders. She is always responsive. But most importantly, she loves our babies like her own and they love her right back. I dont easily trust anyone with my babies, but with Patty looking after my them I have felt comfortable enough to leave the country knowing they will all be well taken care of and spoiled. If you're looking for an amazing dog sitter/walker, you've come to the right place! read more

"I live in Arizona and owned a vacant home in Spokane Valley. I am so grateful to have found Patty to house sit. She looked after my home, made recommendations, ran errands to purchase supplies, made some repairs herself and has facilitated necessary repairs and improvements so that I could get the home on the market. She texted me photos of work in progress and cared for my home as if it were her own! Being in Real Estate myself for the past 40 years, I know that Patty understands what is necessary to care for a vacant home so the pipes don't freeze and no one breaks in. Patty's work ethics has given me a sense of security and relieved my stress significantly, knowing my home was in good hands. Patty's services enabled me to sell my home quickly without having to be there myself. I couldn't have done this without her!" read more

Our pampered little dog does not do well in standard doggie day care or boarding facilities. He needs personal time with people. With Patty's service, we had the option for her to come to our house and spend time with him, take him for walks, and even the occasional car ride if it fit in with the rest of her daily activities. She also spends the nights at our house, letting the dog sleep with her (which he is used to unfortunately), and gives him his meds. Plus, she provided regular text updates on how he is doing. This gives us the added bonus of someone keeping an eye on the house while we are away - giving us peace of mind to enjoy our vacation! We look forward to our next vacation knowing our dog will be loved and in good hands. read more

We have been trusting Patty to watch over our furry kids for the past year now. We have a full house of pets including 4 dogs, two of which have behavioral issues and have to be kept apart from each other and one that is paralyzed. Patty takes amazing care of all of them, juggles their various issues and personalities and cares for them as if they were her own fur babies. We are able to travel and adventure knowing the kids are in such great hands! In addition to how well she treats the furry pets, she is very responsive and communicative. We can't recommend her strongly enough! read more
