About: Pets are family! It is an honor to take care of your loved ones. 💚 My family owned golden retrievers, golden doodles, and Yorkshire terriers growing up and I was always involved in the process of training and taking care of them from puppies through adulthood. Now, as an adult, I have three cats and two dogs of my own! One of my dogs is deaf and short-sighted, so I understand how to take care of pets with special needs. I also have experience with puppies and have taken courses recently on puppy training; if training is something you’re interested in, I’m happy to work with your dog while we’re together! Overall, I am patient, kind, and love getting to know the souls around me— people and animals alike! I work as a therapist, so I have flexibility and availability throughout an average day! I can take breaks to let dogs out to go potty or to go for a walk between my appointments. As an owner of a dog with special needs, I know the importance of keeping a safe environment, giving our fur babies their medications on time, staying on top of their grooming, and keeping them in physical shape. I will take care of your pet family like I do my own! I have variety of grooming supplies and treats that I can offer as well if needed.

About: We are a loving household comprised of myself, my husband, our two kiddos and two sweet hound dogs. Frito is a yellow hound/lab mix who loves to sleep and hang with his family. Bacca is a coonhound with the attitude to match! He likes to express himself often and loudly, but can be a very chill guy once he's gotten his sniffs in. Both are friendly towards all kinds of other dogs. We have experience with dog sitting in our home and we have in the past fostered deaf dogs (through Deaf Dogs of Oregon rescue) while they are found their forever homes. Our house isn't large, but the dogs are basically in charge and we like it that way (they are our kids, along with our human kiddos!) We have a large fenced back yard for the pooches to run in as well. About this sitter: My husband works outside the home and my main job is stay at home mom to my two kiddos (so I'm home a lot!).I love hanging out with my dogs and kids most of the time. We like to hang out in the big back yard. My hubby is a big help with the dogs as well. Why I love dog sitting Both my husband and I grew up loving dogs. My family always had two or three dogs on my parents' 4 acre homestead. We always had big dogs, and a few wiener dogs. They were always part of the family. My husband Justin rescued our late dog Jughead when he was a puppy from a neglectful home, and trained him up to be an awesome dog, who we still miss very much. We adopted our dog Frito together when he was 8 weeks old and he's grown up in our care a very good boy. Our coonhound Bacca is good at very loudly expressing himself (especially when you first meet him!) but he really just wants to be everyone's friend and get pets and okay. About my yard We have a large backyard, about 1/3 of which is covered. The rest is open, with large pine and cedar trees in the back third of the yard near the back fence. We have couches that the dogs often run around, and over when they are playing. There isn't much grass (it won't grow) and the dirt gets a bit dusty when its dry. The dogs like to run, play, and lay out in the sunshine. I am a stay at home mom currently so I'm very flexible with accommodating your dogs needs. I'll be available for drop in visits and walks during the week while my kids are at school, and more often on the weekends if your pet is friendly around children. I have a large fully fenced back yard and two dogs too keep your dog company. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.

“Madeline was professional and friendly and a pleasure to work with! I have a senior cat with hyperthyroidism, and I had been struggling to make arrangements for her while I was out of town for a week, so my request to Madeline was fairly last-minute. She was quick to respond and arrange a meet-and-greet. My cat requires twice-daily applications of medicine, which is a tall order, but Madeline never missed a drop-in. My cat is not comfortable around strangers, so I was impressed to get a Rover Card showing her allowing Madeline to pet her about halfway through my trip! I came home a week later to a happy, healthy cat.”

“I had Christina come for the first time today and it went great! She solved a conflict, was accommodating, and was able to put me at ease while I was at work. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid. I have two dogs at home and i’ve been dog sitting/house sitting for about 4 years! I also worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years. I’m currently a full time student at the University of Oregon, but I never have class for more than 3 hours a day. I can take out dogs every few hours at home or have plenty of time during the day for a walk or play time! I can easily crate your dog if needed and can adjust to different walking and meal plans. I also have experience in giving dogs medicine or handling young puppies.

About: I always grew up with a dog or two until I moved away from home. I have dog walked and pet sit many times throughout my life from teenage years to now. I'm the person at the party who is more focused on the pets loving me than socializing with actual people. I am a former teacher so I am patient, detail-oriented, and take others' safety as my top priority. I currently have fully open availability! I am currently in between jobs, and therefore have a wide range of availability to help fit your needs! As a former teacher of 10 years, I am well trained in eyes on supervision. I also keep all those around me safe under my supervision, and I take the proper steps to maintain adequate leash and crate care.

“This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter, so I was a little nervous at first — but Kathy immediately put me at ease! She was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. My pups were relaxed and enjoyed their time with her. I appreciated the updates and photos she sent, which really helped me relax while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — thank you, Kathy!”

Laura C.
