House Sitting in Astoria

“Absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Was patient with our two grumpy old dogs and provided them with love. She stayed at our house for 2 nights and left it cleaner than it was when we left. Highly recommend!”

About: I absolutely love taking care of animals! I take a lot of pride in caring for your home and your babies. I also love meeting new people, and their pets! I am a full-time student with a part-time job. I work before and after my classes, but I always make it home to let the dogs out, feed the cats, etc. during the day :) I care for them as you would. I sit with them, walk them, and treat them as my own. I love animals so much, and I understand it can be hard when they are away from their owners. I always make the extra effort to give them the attention they need❤️

“Jeanette took wonderful care of our little Tiger. As a blind dog, he requires assistance with a number of different tasks, none of which seemed to faze Jeanette. She managed to communicate thoroughly while avoiding over-frequent contact. She left our home looking better than when we left. We are so grateful to have found her and are planning to check in with her as our first choice to care for Tiger the next time we travel.”

About: I've had dogs and cats nearly my entire life. I've pet-sat for friends, family, and colleagues since 2010. I have past experience working at a vet clinic, grooming department, an overnight pet boarding facility, and for professional pet sitting companies. I work for myself as a life coach and freelancer, so I create my own schedule and can work from anywhere. I am usually available to prioritize your pet's care in my daily/weekly routine unless I am traveling myself, and keep my calendar of availability updated regularly. I provide my client's pets the love, attention, and care that I give my own pet, and I care for the home as if it were my own. I am attentive to follow any and all instructions given to make the sitting experience as seamless to your pet as possible, and I'm happy to send photos and updates as desired. As someone who's had poor pet-sitting experiences in the past, it's extremely important to me that you feel like your pet is in trusted hands.

About: Is it raining cats and dogs? Don't worry! I'll walk your cats and dogs, rain or shine. With four years experience walking dogs in the rain and snow on coastal Alaska, this dog walker is no stranger to the elements. Also, as the proud owner of a persnickety Shiba Inu, I'm very familiar with particular dogs. IYKYK. I've also house sat for multiple dogs, ranging from Klee-Kai's to aging Rottweilers. I am available to walk your dog, rain or shine, Mon-Fri from 7:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. I am also available for pet sitting or weekend walks by appointment. With my trusty Subaru Forester, I can provide shuttle services for even the largest of dogs. I also have a large crate and large play pen that can be provided upon request. I'll be sure to wipe those muddy paws before returning your fur-baby, and will treat them as if they were my own if you needed any pet sitting. I understand that a dog isn't just a pet, but part of your family, and you can rest assured that they will be treated with kindness every step of the way! No off leash walks for your pet's safety.

“Tabitha did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs, both of whom are anxious pups. She stayed with them and provided comfort and support that I believe made their time apart from me much easier on them. The night I returned, she had calming music playing on the t.v. for them, and she made sure the house was as clean as I had left it. I would highly recommend Tabitha for your pet sitting needs.”

“Ashleigh is the best and did an amazing job caring for our two dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. We felt so secure knowing she was with them and she handled our high maintenance 4 month old GSP puppy like a champ. So grateful for her!”

About: I have a 16-year old cat at home now but I grew up with dogs in my household and am missing doggy love! I have taken care of other lot of people's dogs and cats over the years - house-sitting for a few days or a few weeks. My mom's dog has diabetes so I have cared for him, administering insulin shots twice a day. I work from home and would love to make this a win-win for us both - I get out and care for and/or walk your pup while you need the help! I work from my Uppertown home full time and am available pretty much any time throughout the day. Weekends are a possibility as well with some prior arrangement. I cannot provide services in my home at the moment because of my aging cat, but I'm happy to go to your house! I’m a big fan of meet and greets beforehand. :) Happy to offer in-home visits as well as 30 or 60-minute walks around the neighborhood.

“Julianna did a great job of taking care of my 3 dogs and kitty. She sent me photos and communicated with me while I was on my week long trip. I would definitely use her again.”

About: Hello, I am an animal person and would love the opportunity to care for your precious pets! 🥰 I understand what it can be like as a pet parent to be away from your pets, so I am very communicative to keep you updated. I have been pet sitting for 4 years and I live near downtown Astoria and look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets! In my own home, I value a clean and safe environment where pets have a healthy routine, care, attention and supervision they can count on.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life . I grew up with eight and now I have one sweet senior pup of my own. I understand that every dog is different: some need a running buddy, others just need a calm, patient presence. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I always adjust my care to meet their needs; whether it’s a long walk, a quick run, or a quiet snuggle on the couch. Your dog will be in loving, capable hands. I work full-time during the week, so I’m mostly available Fridays through Sundays for dog walking/running, cat sitting, or check-ins. While I don’t offer overnight stays, I’m happy to provide reliable, loving care during the day. While caring for your dog at your home, I can handle whatever they need: from feeding and refreshing water to walks, playtime, or quick potty breaks in the backyard. I’m also comfortable with crate training routines, administering medications (if needed), and providing lots of attention, affection, and patience; especially for senior dogs or those with special needs. Whether it’s a quick check-in or a few hours of care, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved.

About: Mother to two four-legged babies, friend to all! Hi there! I’m Faith, a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mama to two sweet girls: Muffins, my 6-year-old orange tabby, and Noralise, my playful American Shorthair. I adopted Muffins when she was 11 months old and Nora at just 2 months, and they’ve been my heart ever since. Before becoming a cat mom, I grew up surrounded by dogs, mostly Beagles and Pit Bulls, so I’m comfortable caring for both small and large breeds. My family’s beloved pit bull, SaSa, lived a long and happy life until age 15/16. I helped care for her throughout her life from 6 months old into her adulthood and then her senior years. I would help her up and down stairs, applying topical creams, warming up kibble with broth, and making sure she stayed comfortable every day. Layla, my red-nosed Pit Bull (you’ll spot her in the Christmas sweater in my photos!), passed in July 2024 at around 10 years old. We shared hundreds of walks, hikes, and car rides, and even the occasional pup cup after vet visits. After her emergency hysterectomy in 2019, I gained valuable hands-on experience giving both topical and oral medications, which I’ve also applied when caring for my cats after they have undergone being spayed, aMuffins dental treatments. From administering flea & tick treatments to preparing raw, dry, or canned meals (plus supplements!), I’ve built strong experience in pet health and daily care. I’m confident in dog walking, safe playtime, and of course, an expert in scratches, snuggles, and making pets feel loved. I truly adore my animals, all animals, and treat every pet I meet as if they were my own. You can trust that your furry friend will be cared for with patience, love, and genuine attention while they’re with me. Im a full time Federal Employee. During most work weeks i’m available around 4:30 pm-8pm. Most weekends my schedule is more opened up for mornings and afternoons. Please message me before booking something M-F if services are needed before 4:30pm. I will do my ultimate best to respond timely! While I do not offer services within my own home for clients. I promise to always respect ones home and belongings. As I would want mine respected. Personally I like to check in on my lazy loafs so I do have in home cameras. If you do too, absolutely no problem at all. For reservations where I am dropping in on a dog or a cat, I would sweep up any tracked litter around the litter box as part of cleaning it out- and with towel or napkins available, wipe doggy paws after outside time if preferred. Again, I would want my own space respected so please communicate with me regarding your needs/expectations.

“As always, Kerry took wonderful care of our kitties and home and even extended her stay when we had a family emergency. She’s the best!”

“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She took such great care of my pup while I was gone for a week. When I was running low on his favorite nighttime treat, she picked up more so I was restocked when I came back home, which was so helpful!”

Kristin E.

“Jodi was absolutely amazing! She stayed in our home with our three hounds and we could tell from the photos that she sent that they were happy and relaxed. She is definitely part of my speed dial now! We returned to our home with happy hounds and a super clean house! I would HIGHLY recommend her!”

Lisa R.

“Julia was an amazing cat sitter!! She provided frequent updates and we knew Leo was in good hands. She was so friendly and caring with him. She was very kind, professional, and reliable. She did an in home stay and also helped with stuff around the house. I will definitely be hiring Julia again anytime I need a cat sitter!”

Kellie S.

“Danica was great with Royal.”

I will occasionally be available during the week as well. I have two friendly dogs and a large, but unfenced, yard. Dogs have free reign in the house and can use the furniture and beds.

About: Hi there, We’re Leigh & Luke — experienced, reliable, and animal-loving sitters. With 15+ years of combined experience in private homes as a nanny, household manager, newborn care specialist, and owner of a domestic staffing agency, I (Leigh) have had the joy of caring for more than just children—pets and entire households have always been a big part of my work. My partner Luke and I are calm, patient, and easygoing — animals naturally seem drawn to us (neighborhood cats often join us on our evening walks!). We deeply understand the importance of maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Luke has a true green thumb—at one point, he cared for his own 28 thriving houseplants—and he’s tended to some truly beautiful gardens. Together, we take great pride in being respectful, responsible, and thoughtful guests in every home we enter. In addition to his love of nature, Luke is a creative professional who owns a production company and works as a documentary filmmaker. We work remotely and have flexible schedules, allowing us to commit to sits across the U.S. but preferably in the PNW and California. Since we travel without children or pets, we can easily adapt to new environments and give your pets our full attention. With years of experience caring for private homes, I understand the importance of arriving with a calm, grounded presence—something pets instinctively respond to. We genuinely love connecting with new people and their animals, and we’re fully vetted and background checked through TrustedHousesitters. It would be an honor to care for your home and your beloved pets with the same attention and affection we’d give our own. Please note that while we are new on here we are happy to share our reviews from Trusted HouseSitters with you as we have been active on there longer. We work remotely and have flexible schedules, allowing us to commit to sits across the U.S. and internationally. Since we travel without children or pets, we can easily adapt to new environments and give your pets our full attention. Our preference is overnight in home care for 3+ days with flexibility for upwards of 1+months. We care for pets in our clients’ homes with the same presence, mindfulness, and affection we’d give our own. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, playtime, garden care, or quiet companionship, we take the time to understand each pet’s needs and personality. We’re calm, observant, and intentional—animals often seem to relax around us naturally. Luke and I work remotely and without children or pets of our own, which allows us to give each home and every animal our full attention. We show up as thoughtful, low-impact guests who respect your space, your privacy, and your pet’s well-being. From cuddles to houseplant care, we handle the little details so you can travel with peace of mind. Ultimately, we believe great pet sitting isn’t just about meeting needs—it’s about creating an atmosphere where your animals feel safe, loved, and seen while you're away.
