PET SITTING IN TACOMA, WA

Tacoma pet care that works around your hours

Care that fits how Tacoma works

Tacoma pet parents include military families at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, commuters heading up I-5, and nurses and shift workers on long days. PetFena gives you a vetted sitter who hosts your pet in their home, with photo check-ins so you’re never guessing.

Military families

Field training, work trips and moves can pull you away on short notice. Keep your pet’s routine, vet and emergency contacts in the app so any sitter you book has what they need from the first hour.

Shift work and long days

If you work nights or 12-hour shifts, book care around your actual hours instead of leaving your pet home alone through a double.

Waterfront walks, your rules

Ruston Way and Point Defiance are favorite walks, but not every dog is ready for a new place with a new person. Say in your notes where your dog may go and the sitter sticks to it.

HOW PETFENA WORKS

Background-checked sitters

Homes you can see

Sitters upload at least 3 photos of their home and pet space, shown on their profile so you know where your pet will stay.

Check-in to check-out

Chat in the app before and during the stay, with a photo at drop-off and pick-up for a clear record.
