“Kirsten is wonderful, she came to do a meet and greet and it was clear the dogs both liked her (and one of my dogs is picky). She walked and played with them, and sent lots of great pictures. Will be using her regularly.”



“Ileah is great with our dogs, we have 2 Australian shepherds that are high energy, they respond well to her and she keeps good control over them. She is punctual, calm, responds quickly and is professional.”


“Erica agreed to help me out on relatively short notice, walking my dog Percy while I was out of town, and Percy's other parent was at work for 11 hours/day. It was so great to get the Rover cards she sent, with the cutest photos (Erica has a knack)! The peace of mind this gave me while I was out of town was priceless. I would love to have Erica care for Percy again anytime.”


“Alejandra was prompt, communicative, and you can tell how much she loves dogs. She took lots of great photos of the dogs on their walks and I knew they were safe and well cared for while I was at work.”



“Alex is great with my dog Bo and I suspect, all dogs. Her walks with him are also positive reinforcement sessions that build his confidence as well as exercise him. She leaves detailed reports of how he did and what they did every time. I feel like she genuinely cares about my dog and takes great care of him while I'm away.”


About: Does your pet have special needs? My experience includes caring for elderly pets, pets with medical needs, rescue animals, and livestock (including bottle feeding). Have an energetic dog? I’m a distance runner who loves four legged running buddies! I also have experience training dogs, puppies, and cats (yes it’s possible). Whatever your pet’s needs may be, I would love to care for them. As a college athlete my weekly commitments consist of training and either family time or school. This leaves plenty of availability to care for your furry family. Note: Mid-May through Mid-August I provide services in the Hillsboro (OR) area. Mid-August through April I provide services in the city of Anchorage (AK). Pricing and availability may vary, but quality and dependability will be the same. My goals are to provide individualized care based on your pet and their needs and build rapport with each of my clients. Before I accept your booking, I will contact you to discuss in detail: your pet care needs, house or plant care (if applicable), and any concerns you may have. I will accept your booking once details are confirmed. I want to make sure you feel confident and comfortable leaving your pets in my care. I graduated high school with a 4.0 GPA and 22 college credits on top of two four-year varsity sports awards. I have a clean driving record and a 3.88 college GPA.

“So glad that Tessa could take Alfred in a midday walk while I worked. Gave me peace of mind knowing he was taken care of and wouldn’t have to wait for me if I couldn’t get away from work for a lunch time walk. Thank you so much!!!”


“Eric did a wonderful job walking our pups! He was on time, we got pics of them out on their walk and had 2 happy pup faces when they got home! Thank you Eric!”


About: I've been taking care of the pets, including cats/dogs, for my friends and family. My experience as a pet sitter includes feeding, walking, and playing with pets daily. I've always ensured the pets feel comfortable with their familiar surrounding and follow their routine. Also, provide bathing, grooming, or training for pets when necessary. The care of your pet will be worked into my daily routine. I work for the school district and would be able to check in before and after work, with my weekends free to spend plenty of time with your pet! I have a fenced yard and a dog door, which allows my two friendly dogs to keep your pets busy outside. I can easily crate your dogs if needed.

About: I have had dogs, cats, and rabbits in my adult life and had dogs growing up. I just lost my 12 year old senior dog, sweet Mayble, a week ago. Mayble required extensive medical attention as she had kidney disease, a herniated disc that made it difficult to walk, arthritis, and allergies. She required daily medication for her ailments, She also needed frequent potty breaks, extra water, and extra care going up and down stairs and up onto the couch. I had to be in-tune with her if her little body was getting tired from a walk, I also currently have rabbits who require litter cleanings, hay, pellets, lettuce, and socialization, I’m currently in the process of bonding my 2 rabbits which requires a lot of time and patience. In a personal note, I’m a 37 year old single female who works in the education system. I am mature, capable, and responsible and would take care of your precious fur babies as if they were my own. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! Currently I’m on Summer vacation until the beginning of August so, unless I’m going somewhere to camp overnight, My schedule is very open right now! I can care for young animals all the way up to senior animals. I am available for drop-ins, walking, or even house sitting. Let me know what you need! 😊

About: Aside from being raised with cats and dogs and everything in between I have had the great opportunity of working as a pack leader at a doggy day care- a job that I thoroughly enjoyed and did well in. I was able to learn skills ranging from enriching a dogs life through play time, correcting and rewarding behavior, and keeping a safe environment that was shared with multiple dogs. I currently have a lot of free time with my current job and have been wanting to fill this time with something that I enjoy. I am most available in the early mornings and later evenings and completely free Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Currently I only have a cat who is roughly 2 1/2 years old. My home is filled with cat towers and couple cat trees and hideaways to make sure she lives an interesting life. I give her lots of play time and make sure she is well taken care of and loved always! I would do the same for any dog and cat left in my care.

About: I am a professional house/fur baby sitter, and have taken care of dogs of every kind for the last 15 years. Neighbors, families, and friends have relied on me to feed, bathe, walk, play, watch overnight, and care for all different shapes and sizes of dogs. Currently I work full-time Monday-Thursday. I have availability all day on Friday, Saturday and Sundays. Additionally, I am open to fur babysitting at clients homes. I care for clients pets in the clients home. Services that are provided in clients home are walks, play time, cuddles, belly scratches, being fed, medications if needed, and given all the care and attention.

About: When I was around 12, I started taking care of my neighbor’s chocolate lab whenever they went camping. Ever since, I’ve known that caring for animals was a passion of mine. When I was old enough, I worked at an animal daycare for a year. Right now, I work 8:30–5:00 for a travel design company, but I can do walks during my lunch break, as well as check-ins, boarding requests, and feeding appointments. These days, I mostly help take care of my family and friends’ pets, and I’d be so happy to help care for yours too! I am a part time retail manager during the week and am a barista in the mornings on weekdays which i get off at 1 pm, so I have lots of time in afternoon. I think the biggest thing is this communication between the pet owner and the sitter. Any and all expectations will be met and I strive to go above and beyond.

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I've owned, pet sit, walked and helped those around me by caring for the pet family members during Emergency leave, and other life events. I am blessed to have plenty of time on my hands to devote to the love and caring of other pet friends! I can't wait to have more company on my walks! We are a military family on Jber I have a fenced in yard, 1 dog and 1 cat to keep your pets company. We have a separate area for our boarders so they have quiet downtime that also serves well for pet friends who may not get along well with others.

About: I've been watching my own personal pets as well as other peoples since I was a young child. I trained my dog, a half lab/half Weimeraner to retrieve at a pretty high level. I had a three legged cat as well. I've been living with dogs my entire life and cats for the last eight years I work remotely and would prefer to house sit in a place where I can also do my work. Your pet would have someone around the majority of the time and I can take care of other business. According to the conditions and the pets stated needs. I love walking dogs and retrieving with them and it is always nice giving cats catnip if they like catnip.

About: I am a 41yo Born & Raised Florida Boy. Brought up on a farm with everything from chickens, cows, Horses, pigs, sheep to Chow chews, English Mastiffs & Pugs. I genuinely love all animals but Dogs in general steal my heart so fast. I currently do not work so I am available 24 x 7 at this time. Plenty of time to offer love & care to your fur babies. I am also available to stay or visit your place if you feel more secure that way. I'm looking for a few ongoing visits as to not only build a relationship with the fur babies but as to make the stays as stress free as possible for both human & pet. I have a 1 bed flat. Plenty of dog parks and places to go for a walk. I do not have a fenced in yard but the dog parks and outside is where we like to he as a family.

William M.
“I’ve had William watch my pets before and he is very good. He pays attention to detail and has a very good sense of how to handle all types of pets. He gives you peace of mind while you are away from you home and pets.”


Joshua S.
“Watching Joshua interact with my mother's elderly pug and my baby kitten was truly a joy to behold. His ability to connect with animals on a emotional and physical and psychological level is anything short of amazing. Joshua has a cheery and adoring disposition along with a passionate soul that dogs and cats and animals of all kind can really connect with. His experience in the medical field has been proven to showcase his abilities and capabilities when it comes to caring for animals and their needs. He is a devoted and caring owner when it comes to his own pug Deku, these two share a bond that is unmatched by any pairing of human and animal kind I have ever seen in my life. On many occasions I have witnessed Joshua put Deku's needs and other animals needs before his own. I have the utmost respect for Joshua and his loving and caring demeanor and passion for animals. I highly recommend him for anybody who wants someone to be focused on their furry companion. Thank you. Jordan Cote”
