Pet Sitting in Corvallis

“First off, the good. I think she took good care of Helix. She arrived around when she said she was going to, and she stayed around about as long as she said she was going to. I think all my valuables are still here (I don't know if anything of substance will turn up missing over the next few weeks, but the most valuable things I checked, and they are all here). She was an effective communicator in general. The not so good... She was late to both of our meetings leading up to this event. Both times she didn't notify me until after the time we were supposed to meet. She doesn't look like her picture on here. It didn't bother me much, but... if you are trying to draw conclusions about how responsible she is based on the picture, you won't be able to. If that's a concern, you may want to book far enough in advance so you can cancel after you meet her without incurring any penalty. Honestly though, I think cancelling because of someone's appearance is lame- it has little to do with whether she'll be responsible in taking care of your pets. We did have an issue with how the key was returned, but I'm proud of her for how she handled the situation. Her solution wouldn't work in the future because it won't be an option (it was luck that it was an option today), but for this outing it was perfect. If she's willing to work with me again, I have another solution for returning the key which will work fine, and based on how this week went, I think that will work. Overall, I give her a B. She did the important things right- she took care of Helix, she didn't steal my stuff, and she found an effective solution for returning the key to me. If she's willing, I will hire her again.”

“Great with my dog and very thoughtful and attentive”

“Nadia is awesome! She’s been dropping in on our kitties. She’s been super responsive and attentive, sending me lots of pictures after every drop in. They love her, even our cat that is very particular and very shy, comes right out to her and greets her. She shows them lots of attention and affection. She treats them very much like her own kittens!”

“Very communicative and thorough!”

“Jon was wonderful with my cats. He is responsive, friendly, flexible, and super helpful. One of my cats is an escape artist, and Jon stayed overtime and even came back later in the evening to make sure that this kitty got back inside safely. By the way, I think said cat escaped while my family was leaving the house to begin with.”

“Jazmine did drop-in visits for our dogs and cats for a week, and she did a fantastic job! She was very communicative each day with updates and photos, and everyone loved her visits. I will definitely contact her again in the future, and I highly recommend her!”

“Kelly did such a wonderful job taking care of our fur babies! She was very communicative and provided pictures that showed just how comfortable our dogs were with her. One of our dogs really takes time to warm up to strangers due to some unfortunate experiences she had as a stray; Kelly was so patient with her and we're appreciative of Kelly's ability to balance the different personalities/needs of our dogs.”

“Katie took very good care of our dogs and cat while we were away. She was exactly on time, sent lots of pictures and answered questions immediately! Would recommend Katie and will ask her to watch our crew again!”

“Anna has been an amazing friend and pet sitter for me for quite some time now. She has worked as a veterinary assistant and I trust her deeply with my critters. She has a vast knowledge of many different animals and watched over my two cats and four reptiles many times. She takes amazing care of her own cats and adorable dog as well. There is no one I would rather have watch over my animals than Anna. She is timely, follows directions perfectly, and has gone above and beyond what I have asked of her, just so she knows the animals are happy and healthy. She is the most responsible and loving pet caregiver I have met.”

“Lauren is the best, and deals with our two chaotic gremlins so well (who love her a bunch). Knowing she is there to take care of them is always a huge relief :)”

About: I’m an RN by trade, so able to care for many real or potential medical needs of our feline friends. I have built a variety of inside and outside jungle gyms for the adventurous feline. I have one cat he is fixed and very friendly. I work a varied schedule, mostly Monday-Friday 8 hours, off hours vary based on needs of cats in home. On most weekdays I am able to have a family member check in while I work if there is a need. Catio and inside areas are video monitored when I am not visually monitoring. My home comes with a sweet male/nurtured cat that is not territorial and loves to play. He snuggles in bed and can be found under the sheets on cold nights. The catio is accessed through cat door that can be closed if needed. Catio is fully enclosed with 1x1 coated wire and no chance of escaping. Neighbor critters (cats and others) are kept at least 6-12 in away, but occasionally one gets close enough to play nose kisses. No concern for arms reaching through the wire or wire being torn down. Inspection done when critters seen on any property cameras. I am an experience Nurse, able to administer oral, intramuscular and subcutaneous injections, and subcutaneous fluids. Does your feline want to come play in a safe fun environment?

“Trisha exudes a boundless love for all animals, especially dogs and cats. Trisha voluntarily takes her friends dogs on walks routinely, and shows a genuine passion for the animals health and wellbeing. Currently I own a cat, and Trisha has show immense care for my cat Penny. Trisha's ability to connect with animals is truly heartwarming, creating an atmosphere of trust and joy that is felt by both the animals and those fortunate enough to witness their interactions. Throughout the years of knowing Trisha, I know that she is not just an animal lover, she is a compassionate force dedicated to making every animal feel comfortable and safe in her presence and space.”

“Kya is very responsible and a great pet care taker. She takes care of my cat all the time and she does exactly what I ask and more!”

“Friendly, reliable, and great with my kitty! We had a great experience.”

About: Grew up on a ranch and I have enjoyed working with animals the whole time. Willing to work with any animals, doesn’t have to be a cat or dog. I currently have a cat named Dale. We spend all our time together aside from when I’m at work or school. We always make time to play :) When caring for someone’s pet I try my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible and make sure to do everything asked of me on how the client would like their pet to be taken care of.

“Amy J offers a wonderful approach to pet care. Our pets are quite accustomed to "work from home" status yet it's clear that they flex to vibe with Amy's energy. We find it both refreshing and reassuring to work with someone who is such a beautiful blend of joy and reliability.”

“If you get the chance to hire sophie for any service that is offered on the app I would take that chance. She loves animals and has always treated all of her own pets with so much care and love. She loves taking her dog for hikes and walks and I know she would love to do the same for your pets!”

About: I've helped train two puppies in the past two years, only one of which was my own. I've cared for my own family's senior XL-breed dog for years (though I'm too small to walk her on my own). I'm currently an OSU student who works at the Valley Library. I usually work in the mornings, only have one in-person class this term. I'll have plenty of time in the afternoons! In my own home, I care for my puppy Alfalfa by giving him lots of love and attention, as well as by training him every day. As a Husky/German Shepherd mix, Alfalfa is a high-energy, sometimes stubborn pup. This can be challenging, but I always treat him with love and respect, just how I treat all dogs.

“Faith has taken care of our dog, Sandy, on numerous occasions, and we could not be more pleased with how she loved our little doggie as her own. Faith walked her, gave her baths, but more importantly, gave her the same attention that we give Sandy at home. She is extremely reliable and has always been available, for us, even for short-notice care of Sandy. I would highly recommend Faith to anyone who needs a pet caregiver who will treat your pet like it is her own.”

“Very attentive and has my shy/selective doggy in love with her!”
