Cat Sitting Carus

“Arian is such a great cat lover and caretaker!! I felt completely at ease leaving her my keys for drop ins to my place, and from the looks of the photos and videos my cats will honestly miss her once I’m home! Fantastic experience.”

About: I have taken care of 4 dogs at once. 3 big, 1 small. They required a lot of attention. I also had to give medication to 2 of the dogs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and fitting to their needs I am in college. I have a class on monday in person for about 2 hours but besides that all my other classes are online so I am always free. I am able to spent the night at peoples houses and change my schedules to fit the dogs needs. I am able to do anything that fits the owners needs. I make sure to watch the dogs often and give them attention they need.

“The cats were well taken care of this week! Thank you!”

“Colin was phenomenal at taking care of our pup! He left detailed notes that gave us great updates and peace of mind that our dog was well cared for. Colin took our dog out for a walk, even when not necessary, to give her extra attention and stimulation. We came back to one happy dog and safe home!”

About: Hello! My name is Rahul (say the “h”). I have had experiences with all kind of dogs. I feel there no need for a preference. Every dog can be loved. I know how hard it is to find a good sitter for your pets and that is why I wanted to do this.I've always had dog(s) in my household growing up. I've seen them all, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, and dogs that think that they're human. In my experience in dealing with all of these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in dog-care, patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of, I've seen it all. I am are looking forward to helping you and your family! Can’t wait to take care of your pet! As a full-time Doctor of Physical Therapy student, I have a structured schedule that gives me flexibility throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Spending time with pets is a great way for me to take a break from studying, get outside, and stay active, so it's something I genuinely look forward to. I'm committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, check in on your pets during the day, or stay in your home while you're away on vacation, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special instructions before caring for them. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddles. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. For dog walks, I prioritize safe routes, secure leashing, and positive interactions with people and other animals. I always pay close attention to your dog's body language and energy level to make sure they're comfortable and having a great time. Communication is important to me, so I'll send regular updates and photos during each visit or stay. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine attention.

About: What sets me apart is my background in both veterinary medicine and animal behavior. I have over 4 years of hands-on experience working in veterinary settings with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including anxious, senior, and high-energy animals. As a Zoology student at Oregon State University, I’m especially passionate about understanding animal behavior and making sure pets feel comfortable, enriched, and safe while in my care. I also have experience handling medications, monitoring health and behavior changes, and providing patient, individualized care for every pet. I am also very active and am always looking for a running partner who would like some good exercise and fun! I’m currently a part-time student and work part-time at the Boys & Girls Club of Corvallis, but I have a lot of weekend availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks, pet sitting, drop-in check-ins, and general pet care, and I’m happy to work with each family’s schedule and routine! I love staying active and creating a good balance between playtime, exercise, and cuddle time. My current house doesn’t allow animals, but I have reliable transportation and would be happy to take your pet on walks, hikes, or to explore new parks if that’s something they enjoy. I’m active enough to keep up with high-energy dogs or cats, while also being patient and calm with pets who prefer a slower pace and plenty of downtime.

“Abby is a marvelous pet sitter! Harley was in good hands and it showed when I came home to a happy cat. She kept my place tidy and updated me with plenty of pictures to preserve my sanity. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have compassion and am understanding for animals that is hard to put in to words. I carry empathy towards all living things. I have had several dogs of my own and know how much it means to have someone you can rely on to care for them when you’re away. I am currently at home full time and don’t have plans on that changing anytime soon. I am able to work around your schedule and as needed. I have a few appointments a week but they are only one hour at a time. The rest of my time is free. I tend to take my two dogs to the park every day to play ball or run around (depending on weather sometimes). I would love to bring yours along as well. My dogs are very friendly and know how to give your pets their own space when needed. Please keep in mind that if you need a house/pet sitter, my two dogs would have to come with me as I am single and don’t have anyone to care for them. They are great with other dogs and cats. Fully potty chained. No chewing. Keeping safe distance from other animals, always leashed, never left at home alone, reassurance to help them feel safe in the new environment, treats, nap.

“Frank stayed in our home and took care of our cat for a 9 night stay. They followed our directions for the house and cat care and kept us updated on our trip so we could fully enjoy our time away. Our kitty was happy and healthy when we got home. Highly recommend and will hire again!”

Kelly D.

“Chelsey was so kind and attentive to our cats while we were away from the holidays, and she was great communicating with any question. Would recommend!”

Katie T.

“Beyond kind to both me and my kitty! Always on time, very attentive, and sent great updates and photos! Took the time to interact and play with my cat and always responded quick! Highly recommend!”

About: Very similarly to my history with cats, I've never known a life without at least one pup in my life! Although I don't have my own dog at the moment because I have no space for pups to play, and I know they need to be able to get energy out, and an apartment isn't the best place for that, my Mom still has two dogs that I care for often. As she did with cats, my Mom bred Lhasa Apsos on several occasions, and of course, those doggies were nothing less than completely pampered(as they should be)! I've helped with everything from bathing dogs of all sizes, to walking dogs, to actually helping with delivering puppies! I've had so many breeds of dogs, each with their own personality! I've had Lhasa Apsos, Australian Shepards, Mastiffs, a Saint Bernard, Golden Retrievers, Labradoodles, Greyhounds, and more! My Mom currently has 2 Labradoodles, and I've watched/dog sat them on several occasions. I'd love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your pup(s), and help you in any way I can! If you're in need of a dogsitter, please feel free to reach out! Have a fabulous day! I don't have many times during the week where I'm not available! I will be busy on Thursday mornings until 11:30 for the next several weeks, but aside from that, I'm very flexible and can work with what you need for your schedule. I will be able to care for dogs in your home as you need me to. I can care for cats in my apartment if needed, and if you're comfortable with your cat(s) being around my kitties. No matter what, I will be able to come to you and your cat(s)/dogs(s) and help out!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10, 30 years of experience. Each individual pet is different and I want to love and give them the special attention they need. I have open availability. I am willing to work around your schedule and what’s best for you and your pet. Boarding or just drop in visits, either way I have a lot of love to give. Boarding, walking, or drop in visits, I will do whatever you and your fur baby need of me. From puppies and kittens to elderly dogs and cats I’m very adaptable.

About: Nothing is more important than your furbaby’s safety and happiness! For dogs, I understand leash control, situational awareness, and the value of structured walks. I’m happy to follow your handling instructions so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I have completed clicker training along with foundation and advanced canine fitness courses. For cats, I know they need gentle, calm, and stress-free care. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and am familiar with cat behavior and body language. I provide reliable drop-in visits that prioritize your cat’s comfort and individual needs. I have a lot of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I read their body language well and know how to help them feel relaxed and at ease in new situations. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available on weekends from 8am–4pm, and weekdays work too with at least one day’s notice. Tell me what times you’re looking for, and I’ll accommodate as much as possible. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting services. Dogs get structured walks with time to sniff and light play. Cats receive interactive play, enrichment, and calm attention based on what they enjoy. I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s comfort level. Feeding is included as part of your pet’s regular routine, and my focus is on keeping pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free.

About: I've been around animals my whole life, rabbits, chickens, dogs, cats, turtles, and birds growing up, and now goats, chickens, and a cat of my own. My sister, an animal behaviorist, taught me to communicate with animals through trust rather than dominance-based methods. I treat every pet like family, so you can relax knowing yours is loved, understood, and genuinely cared for while you're away." As a freelance video editor, I work from home full-time, which means I'm around throughout the day to check in, play, and give walks, not just squeezed in before or after work. My schedule is flexible, so I can adjust for feeding times, potty breaks, or any specific routine your pet needs. I work from home, so your pet won't be left alone for long stretches, I'm just a room away most of the day. I treat every home and pet with the same care and attention I'd want for my own, keeping to their normal routine and environment as closely as possible.
