“We had a wonderful experience with Maya! She took great care of our babies and was very mindful of their specific needs. It’s always tough to leave our fur babies behind, but Maya’s detailed updates and photos made us feel very comfortable and able to relax while we were gone.”
“Our kitties absolutely LOVE Lori and so do we! She goes out of her way to make them feel loved while we are away and has gone above and beyond for our newest family member! I would recommend her to anyone who wants to assure their fur babies are well taken care of!”
“Dani is wonderful!! She always takes such good care of our kitties, is super responsive and understands how much it means to us to know that our babies are well when we’re not there. And she sends us THE BEST photos of our cats! We appreciate Dani so much!!”
“Great communicator! Welcomed a pre-sit call, and was prompt and swift to report out on kitty visits. And, Laitlin double checked an any details that needed clarifying :) Kaitlin left a trail of greenies to invite Paris out from under the couch🌸”

About: Animals love me, and I love them! My family has always had dogs, and I was always the one to walk them. Tiny dog? I'll walk them. Medium dog? I'll walk them. Big dog? I'll walk them. REALLY big dog? I'll walk them. I have walked dogs of all sizes, ages, and speeds. No matter the size, dogs respond well to my energy, and they can tell I'm excited to see them. Even if your dog doesn't like walks, I can stop by and let them out in your backyard and even throw a ball for them 1 to 100 times. I'm currently working part-time from home on a boring computer. Happy to take a break to hang out with your cute animal(s) instead! I usually go on a walk 1-2 hours a day, so why not bring your dog along? I also have a car, so I can get to your neighborhood in a breeze. I have experience walking reactive dogs. I am aware of my surroundings and always cross the street safely if I spot another dog approaching. I always communicate with dogs in a friendly and calm demeanor.
“I-Hsin has been wonderful to work with. She’s taken care of our cat multiple times with no issues. Communication has been great and we will continue to use her when needed. Thank you again for taking great care of our cat and home.”
“Meagan did a wonderful job taking care of our senior kitty while we were away for a few days. She sent detailed reports and photos each day on how kitty was doing, which really put our minds at ease. She also took the time to give her daily cuddles, as well as being sensitive to her senior-cat feeding needs. We really appreciated the loving, trustworthy care Meagan showed our cat and house, and would not hesitate to ask her to watch them again next time we are out of town.”
About: Hi! My names Andrew nice to meet you. I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’ve dog-sat extensively in the past with all sorts of dogs. I’m very active, love to play fetch, go on long walks, or just kick back depending on the speed of your dog. I take pride in my professionalism, but do this mostly for the joy of having new dog friends! I live in a nice two bedroom apartment in Arbor Lodge. It’s on the second story with some stairs, something to consider with older bigger dogs. I’m a touring musician currently and when I’m available I’m free 24/7 more of less. I have a lot of down time for bathroom walks and active focus with your dog. I have a fenced in large yard full of bark that is great for rolling in or sun bathing. I also live very close to Arbor Lodge Park. A great area for nice walks or play time if you dog does well with other dogs and likes to socialize. My home has plenty of space and all wood floors.
About: I grew up on a non-working farm with multiple dogs and cats. I have since been hired to care for many cats and a variety of dog breeds! I love animals and am extremely patient with them, I find that I connect really well with even the most stubborn of pets. I have often been called the pet whisperer. 🥰 I have one cat and am unable to adopt more pets at the moment so I LOVE pet-sitting for others and getting to live vicariously through them. I am a recent graduate from Portland State University and my schedule is very flexible! I am able to do overnight stays for limited amounts of time and would love to do drop-in care and take your pets for walks! I would prefer to care for pets in their home due to a lack of space in mine, however I like to learn about their routines from their humans and care for them based on how they like to operate. That ranges from more fixed things such as feeding schedules to more dynamic things such as working with their moods.

“Allie has one of biggest hearts and most welcoming souls we’ve ever met. Our animals have always absolutely adored her, including our older cat many years ago, and our younger pup. We can consistently count on Allie to take tender loving care of our pets, with plenty of play time and cuddling when we have to be away for hours to days at a time. She is a total animal whisperer and we feel so lucky to have her in our life! Highly recommend choosing Allie to look after your furry loved ones!”

Trace was very consistent, communicative, and professional while caring for my cat over a long weekend. She was patient and unfazed by his quirks, and attuned to his shifting comfort levels across her few visits. She went out of her way to keep things tidy (depositing litter box waste outside, sweeping!). Definitely recommended. Thank you, Trace!
Sydney has taken care of our kitties before and once again did a stellar job taking care of our kitties while we were away. We had a malfunctioning litter robot that she went above and beyond to deal with, even going out to buy extra litter when needed. We are so grateful to her for her amazing care!!
Courtney was amazing! She left detailed notes each visit and stayed extra time to ensure our elderly cat ate all of her food. She went above and beyond cleaning up our cats throw up multiple times and we are so appreciative! The photos she left were so sweet and made us feel like we were there with our babies! I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone! Thank you so much!
August was fantastic with our older cat and they went above and beyond to make sure she was well taken care of. August was able to get her to take her pills each day (which can sometimes be tricky). They were patient, caring, and gave us lots of info at each check in about how she was doing. I never had to worry with August taking care of our cat and we would have them back as our pet sitter any time. Highly recommended!!
Stellar job, once again! You're availability and generosity will always be remembered. My dog and cat thank you so much, as do i, of all of the attention and time you gave them in my absence. I was able to enjoy the work I was doing abroad and had no concerns or worries that everything was under control and taken care of.
Paige did a great job with my cat — he unexpectedly had to go to the vet the morning of the sitting so his eye had to be monitored and he needed meds mixed into his food, but she adapted to the situation very quickly and kept him great company while I was gone!
