“Our first time using an in home sitter and couldn’t be happier 😊 Ryan was excellent with the dogs and left the house spotless!! He communicated frequently, sent lots of photos, just an excellent young man. Thank You Ryan 🙏🙏”


“Mark is fantastic. There aren’t enough words in this review box to express just how fantastic. He agreed to a relatively last minute booking when another sitter fell through. He is very professional. Our house looks better and our dog looks happier than we left him. Mark was very communicative, accommodating & sent plenty of updates.”


“Look no further! Cynthia is caring, thorough, communicative, and attentive. Ahead of our meet and greet, she sent me a list of excellent questions and topics for us to discuss that would help inform her stay at our home and care of our two dogs. She didn't bat an eye at my detailed list of information and our dog's needs. In conjunction with her lovely disposition, genuine care for animals, she was a fantastic communicator while we were away, and even kept tabs on our fish and cared for my flowers. She left our house incredibly clean and was such a blessing during our two weeks away - which is a long time to leave your fur babies! I feel so fortunate to have found her and am grateful for her care and extraordinary flexibility when I realized I had booked the wrong end date! Thank you, Cynthia!”


“I have never left my dog with anyone before and Phedre made the whole experience so easy and comfortable. She ended up watching 3 dogs this first time and I never had to worry. We got photos at least once a day and updates on what the dogs were doing. I will be asking Phedre to watch my dogs whenever I need to in the future with no question! I couldn’t recommend her enough. 10/10”


“Caroline is the best pet sitter I have ever had. I had a wedding weekend and Caroline stayed at my house with my two dogs Utah and Bodey. My French Bulldog Bodey can be difficult at times and he needs to warm up to new people in his life. Caroline gave him love and affection until Bodey finally gave in to her ways. Caroline showed patience and poise while watching him. As a pet owner who has a dog like Bodey, it put me at ease knowing he was in terrific hands. Bodey even had his "moments" with Caroline but she handled it perfectly. I trust Caroline full heartedly to take care of my two little guys. Lastly, Caroline took amazing care of my place while I was gone. It was spotless upon my return.”



“Michael preformed as promised. He arrived in a timely manor. He was attentive to the dogs and gave them their eye drops without issue. Michael left the house clean and even washed and changed the sheets.”


“Xavier was great with our girls. He took them each for walks, played outside with them, and took them for trips to the dog park while we were away for the weekend. There were constant updates & great communication. Our girls loved their time with him.”


“Aaron has been such a saving grace for us and our pup, walking and house sitting over the last year. We’re sad to see him leave Portland but if he’s in your area and you want a reliable, clean, communicative person to trust with your furbabies, you have found it.”


“If I could somehow zap her energy, I would. Brooke is a delight. So warm and positive with our dogs. She truly spoiled them. We received countless pics and videos of our babies too. They looked very happy.”


“Wow! Allison is the “happy pets, happy life” kind of sitter. Need I say more?! Our two Chihuahuas were as happy as could be in the daily photos where they were happily interacting and then resting together. The feedback report meant so much too. We could rest easy knowing they were in such great care.”


“Dena was great! My pup got lots of attention and exercise, while I had peace of mind with good communication/updates. Dena is very responsible and reliable ?”


“Shannon was an amazing dog sitter! She gave us frequent updates with pictures, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with our dog, and our dog adored her right back! We felt 100% confident leaving our dog in her care, even though our dog is reactive to other dogs. Shannon is reliable, caring, and just fantastic to work with—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend her.”


“Aida was fantastic with our high-energy dog! She can be a handful, but Aida handled her with so much patience and care. She made sure our pup got plenty of exercise and attention, and it was clear she was happy and well cared for while we were gone. We came home to a tired, content dog and a spotless house—couldn’t ask for more!”


“Deb was wonderful! She took extra special and individualized care of our two very different pups and just went above and beyond in general. The daily updates with pictures helped us to know our dogs were in great hands!”


“We asked Brinley to pet sit in our home last minute. She was communicative, prompt, personal and competent. She clearly has a love of animals and we would not hesitate to use her again. We recommend her highly.”


About: Life-long dog owner, lover and trainer. My Aussie, Huck, is an experienced and friendly host. We host one guest dog at a time. I work from home. The yard is fenced, and there’s a handy window for watching the neighborhood. We enjoy hosting and caring for social dogs, and help them feel part of the pack while you're away. There’s walking, running and playing catch, and car rides for those who like them. I work part time from home, and have lots of time for dogs. I typically take them with me on short errands if they enjoy that. We like our guest dogs to feel like they’re staying with a friend, and keeping the routine they’re used to as much as possible. Ideally, our house is a place they’d be happy to come back to.
