“Lexy is awesome. Her pictures always show a very happy dog. My Hazel is very pleased with her. Won’t hesitate to use her services again. Highly recommended.”

“Kristen was so sweet, professional, and caring for the month or so I needed her. Fortunate finding her to trust with my puppy and in my house (which is hard for me as a natural worrier). She communicated about situations that arose.”

I listen to my clients and ensure we are on the same page, so that their pets get all their needs met. I'm patient and make sure every pet feels loved and at ease.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13. Family friends have always relied on me for help. They trust me more than anything else. Hi! I’m a dependable, caring, and patient animal lover who treats every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll provide plenty of attention and care. I’m reliable, communicate well, and I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and giving them the love and care they deserve! I have 2 family golden-doodles who have taught me huge amounts about dogs! My family adopted them when they were puppies and have been adored since.

About: I have extensive experience with raising animals! I was born into a family of dog lovers, and I have always had a furry friend for as long as I can remember. I have reared and cared for fourteen puppies all at the same time! This includes special-needs puppies who required consistent attention and hand feeding. I have sat for all different sorts of breeds, sizes, and animals! Including small animals like rats, guinea pigs, and reptiles. I have a deep love and compassion for animals and also have a lot of experience in dog training, meaning I am more than happy to keep up with any regimen or structure your friend needs. I work from home as a writer so my schedule is completely open outside of the work I'll be doing here on Rover! In terms of my writing career, when and how I do it is completely flexible meaning I am happy to hear your pet's routine and mold my work around them. I will care for your pets with strict adherence to how you'd like me to care for them. In terms of my personal pet-parenting style, I am the sort who sees my animals as family and they're allowed to lie on the couches and beds. Your pets health and diet are very important to me, so I will always take as much info or instruction as you wish to give me. We have two dogs and a cat at home, all of which are friendly towards other animals, so I will ask  that your pet plays nice, with them, as well! Animals who are tolerant/non-aggressive but need space are more than welcome to remain in a quiet room unbothered by our furry family members. We have a loft area where they can be completely separated if need be! They will, however, cross paths with the other dogs and cat when walked or let out in the fenced yard.

About: I have been a dog owner since the age of 5. I have looked over and trained numerous dog throughout the years. I am excited to spend time with your special guy. I currently work from home. I will be present most days. We have fenced yard so I can let the dog out often if needed. I have a good sized fenced yard with a park across the street to allow the dogs exercise. I have my side kick Jimmie a 3 year old mutt that is friendly and always looking for a new dog friend.

About: My background in animal care extends well beyond traditional pet sitting. I completed extensive veterinary technology education while working full-time in a large, multi-department veterinary hospital, gaining years of hands-on experience with animals ranging from healthy puppies and routine-care patients to senior, hospitalized, post-op, and medically complex dogs. My subsequent transition into “human” healthcare has further strengthened the attention to detail and standard of care that I bring to every animal entrusted to me. My veterinary experience provided a comprehensive foundation in safe animal handling, canine behavior/temperament recognition, medication administration, medical-condition awareness, post-op care, and the identification of subtle changes that may indicate pain, anxiety, or physical distress. I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and overall presentation that may warrant closer observation or communication with a pet-parent. I am comfortable caring for dogs across all ages, sizes, and levels of need, including puppies, senior dogs, animals requiring additional behavioral consideration, and pets with established medical or mobility needs. My experience includes oral and injectable medication administration, incision and wound care, mobility assistance, post-operative monitoring, and incontinence-related care. Whether providing a walk, drop-in visit, extended sitting, or boarding, I approach pet care with the same principles that have guided my professional healthcare experience: attentive observation, appropriate precautions, consistency, clear communication, and respect for individualized care requirements. My goal is not simply to supervise a pet while an owner is away, but to provide knowledgeable, responsible care while maintaining the routine, safety, and level of attention each individual animal requires. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care and am currently preparing for my board examinations, which allows me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be home much of the time. At present, I have considerable availability for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and other pet-care needs, and I am able to adjust my study schedule around confirmed bookings. Once I begin working in the hospital, my anticipated schedule will consist of three scheduled shifts per week, leaving the remaining four days largely open and predictable for pet care. I do not have children or other routinely changing obligations that would interfere with confirmed bookings. Any known limitations to my availability will always be communicated in advance, and with clear communication regarding your pet’s schedule and needs, I am currently able to accommodate a wide range of scheduling requests. Safety and attentive supervision are priorities in our home. Between my husband and me, our dogs are never left home without one of us present, and I maintain that same standard of supervision for pets entrusted to my care. I would not leave a pet unattended while I am responsible for their care. We have a fully fenced backyard and maintain a clean, organized, and uncluttered home and outdoor environment. With a five-month-old puppy of our own, our home is consistently kept pet-safe, with unsafe or inappropriate items secured and inaccessible. I am also careful and deliberate when managing interactions between animals and never assume unfamiliar dogs can simply be left together unsupervised. Introductions, outdoor access, feeding, and shared spaces are appropriately supervised, with the safety and comfort of each individual pet remaining the priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same standard of supervision, respect for their environment, and attention to safety.

About: I grew up around all kinds of animals and even had up to 7 dogs at one point in my childhood home! I’ve always loved having pets and I even used to pet sit for neighbors frequently. I’m currently not working so I’m able to pet sit Monday-Sunday! I’m open to following specific routines that you have for your pet. I’m also available to do overnights if needed :) I do have a fenced in yard where I can supervise your pet. I currently have no personal pets of my own. I love to maintain their schedule as I know it could be hard for your pet to be in a new environment.

About: I am bilingual in English and Spanish! I am very active and available. I will care for your animal with all my love and attention. I have 4 pets of my own, so I understand the seriousness of pet needs. Also have experience giving medication to dogs. I work at Asante hospital and am able to house sit just about any time. I have the convenience of no kids, so I am very flexible! With four cats, I pride on keeping a clean and sanitary home! They deserve the best, and so do your babies. I am willing to stay at your place and keep things exactly the way you want them!

About: I have 3 cats, but I care deeply about all animals. My life’s calling is to care for animals which is why I finally decided to proceed with vet tech schooling. My whole life I have taken care of dogs and cats and have loved every moment of it. Caring for my pets is the best and most satisfying part of my day. After working with tech in Geek Squad for 2 and a half years, I spent a lot of time thinking about what I want to do in life. I always knew my calling was to care for animals which is why I am in the process of starting vet tech schooling and looking for a job outside of tech working as a vet assistant. I promise to always provide the best care you could ask for when caring for your pets. If your animals need to come to my house I do have a big fenced in yard that they can play in and I welcome all animals in all rooms of my house and they are allowed to be on furniture. Because of how much I care for animals you will never have to worry about your pet being left alone or missing a meal.

About: I have grown up with a variety of animals, thus providing me with a wealth of experience. I grew up with a small and a medium dog, though frequently would look after larger and higher energy dogs for family, friends, and other folks in my community. I love cats and have one of my own! I have experience with medication administration for special needs animals or animals with health concerns and would be happy to assist your pet with these things so you can feel comfortable leaving home without worry for their wellbeing!

I am also available saturday afternoons, and all day sundays, and mondays for convenient weekend trips. Happy to work with you and your schedule to make sure your pets are treated like family! I am happy to provide care for your pets in your home, and would love to support with housework if needed! I am thorough and attentive and will be sure to take extra care and time when you are away from your pets. I know how hard it can me to leave pets home, they are family! I want you to feel calm and safe knowing how loved your animal is with me!

About: Look, anyone can watch a pet. My thing? I actually listen. Seriously. My superpower is picking up on what animals are trying to tell me—be it a happy purr, a 'back off' bark, or a goat's casual bleat for attention. Being a digital nomad means my schedule is entirely my own, so I can truly be present and adapt to their needs, not some rigid clock. Playtime? Cuddles? Or just needing space? I read the room (or yard, or barn). I've got hands-on experience with everything from puppies to pigs, so your critters are always in genuinely attuned hands. This isn't just some gig; it's about making a real connection, deeply. As a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That means no rushing off to an office, no rigid 9-to-5, and definitely no 'squeezing in' pet time. I build my day around the animals I'm caring for. If a dog needs an extra walk, or a cat wants a sudden play session When I'm caring for your pets, my absolute focus is on maintaining their normal routine and comfort right there in their own space. I'm not just showing up to feed and split; I'm integrating into their lives. That means sticking to their feeding schedule, managing medications if needed, and keeping their environment exactly how you left it—clean, familiar, and totally stress-free. Here's the deal: as a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That translates directly into true presence for your pets. If I'm house sitting for you, your animals essentially become my co-workers. That means spontaneous play sessions, consistent outdoor time, and me being fully available. You'll get regular updates so you're never left wondering. Ultimately, it comes down to being attuned to their unique needs and ensuring they feel as comfortable, happy, and loved as they do with you, without ever having to leave their familiar surroundings.

About: I've taken care of my neighbors' dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs since I was a young teen, and have had multiple furry best friends of my own over the past 15 years. I'm highly qualified to provide the best possible care for your beloved friend, including seniors and pets with special needs. I'm a volunteer dog-walker at the local animal shelter, and have the ability to exercise high-energy dogs. I'd love to keep your dog healthy, active and socialized while you're away! My schedule is open and available for pet-sitting or dog-walking any day of the week! 24/7 available care when I overnight sit at your home In your home, I can stay overnight or make 1 house visit per day. I stick to the schedule you provide for feeding and walking so that your pet needs to make as few adjustments as possible to their daily routine.

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for many different dogs over the years. When I was 11, my family adopted a large Border Collie puppy, and I was very active in the responsibilities needed for a puppy with that much energy. Over time, I’ve enjoyed pet sitting because different dogs, especially by breed have different personalities and maintenances that are unique. I’m active and able to walk/do activities with dogs, but through experience not all dogs need that, and L’m excited to meet new pups! I’ve had significant experience with: collies, huskies, chihuahuas, rat terriers, labs, doodle mixes, and mixed recuse dogs! I work part time, but I am also a college student-athlete! In the summers and late spring my schedule is almost completely clear! In the school year I do not work, but I have certain times blocked off for practice. I am available by phone almost all hours of the day! Whether I am in my own home, a clients home, or the public, I only want to ensure that the animal I am with feels safe and all its needs are met. I want the pet to have a good time and feel comfortable with me. In terms of environment I think being neat and clean is very important for both the pet and myself. When mealtimes come, I make all my animals sit or wait patiently until the food is ready and I am not mean, but I do encourage good behavior at all times and try to get the pet to practice small trainings or commands when appropriate.

About: I have done pet sitting for over 5 years which include boarding, housesitting and dog walking. I have also cared for cats, chickens, exotic birds and baby goats (bottle fed). I have cared for elderly pets, seizure pets and have no problem with giving medications. ****If you are requesting housesitting, I do have a small easy-going chill dog that likes to come with me if you are ok with that. He gets along with all dogs and cats alike. I do request that we have a meet and greet prior so as to ensure you are comfortable with me in your home and with your pets. I work remotely during the day. So I would be with your pet(s) for the majority of the day. They would only be left alone a few hours on occasion for errands/appointments and such. So they would get plenty of potty breaks, love and attention while you are away. I will care for you pet(s) per your instructions. While at my house they will be allowed on furniture and my bed for extra cuddle time. They will be given plenty of walks and playtime!

About: I'm currently an animal control officer for the city with a life long passion for animals. I have a vast array of experience with all species with my primary focus being on dogs, cats and equines. I have 3+ years of experience working in a mixed animal veterinary practice of 7 doctors and have maintained relationships with those veterinarians and technicians which gives me experience caring for animals in a medical capacity. This makes things like caring for medically complex furry friends, geriatric pets & giving medications, including injectables a breeze. I have 10+ years caring for horses and other large animals both personally and professionally. I managed a horse boarding facility in OR for 3+ years and then proceeded to work under a well known trainer. My work is fairly flexible making potty breaks easy, although I do work 40 hours a week. I am more than willing to stay over and care for your pets as it they were my own. I take pride in keeping your pets safe while they are in my care! Their safety and comfort is my #1 priority when petsitting. I pay close attention to body language and how your pets are communicating with me using their own signals to make them as comfortable as possible. I am happy to stay at your home to help facilitate this.

“Laura is great! My Perry loves to run and she takes him to a grassy area and runs with him. He also needs the running to keep his weight down since he won't do any other kind of exercise on his own. Laura is great with communicating with me about when she'll be here and about how the walk went. I just moved to Oregon lately and was worried about finding as great a dog walker as I had before but I needn't have worried. Laura is just as great as my last dog walker.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life as well as cats and a few other random buddies. I currently own 3 dogs and 3 cats so I know they need love and attention many times a day just like a kid, and I will treat them like I treat my own loved ones. I currently do gig work full time and thus have a fully open schedule. I am able and willing to be there for your animals and house needs at any given hour. I am not currently offering care in my own home as I do not have the capacity of a correct home to take care of your loved ones since I already have my own friends in mine.

About: I have been involved with dog rescues throughout my entire life. I know how to work with dogs with big personalities and those that are a bit shy, as well. I have a lot of patience and understanding when it comes to dogs with challenging pasts and I am happy to help them work through any trust issues at their own pace. I have owned dogs for as long as I can remember and I am always the friend go volunteer to walk other people's dogs when they need help. I know the value of exercise and enrichment for dogs and I know how to make those connections with them. I am experienced in bathing, walking, playing with and feeding dogs of all sizes and breeds. Over the summer I have completely open availability and any consistency would be appreciated as I am getting married this summer and need the funds for my wedding. I can ensure that the dogs are fed, have plenty of water, have had play time and have gone on walks. I will make sure the dog gets a lot of interaction time.
