Pet Sitting Christian Bend

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom had as many as six dogs at a time, and I was actively involved in their daily care from a very young age. We also had multiple litters of puppies over the years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages—from newborn puppies to senior dogs. In addition to dogs, I've cared for cats, rabbits, and hamsters, making me comfortable with a variety of pets and their unique needs. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I've spent a lifetime around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Most recently, my two beloved dogs passed away. While I'm not quite ready to bring new pets into my home yet, I miss having animals in my life. Pet sitting felt like the perfect way to continue spending time with pets, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I gave my own. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. 🐾❤️ I work from home with a flexible job. I am able to take care of your pets on whatever schedule works best for them and you. I have a fenced in yard for your pets to run around in. I also live in a cul-de-sac so it’s a safe neighborhood to walk pets in! I have no other pets living in my home so all my attention can be on your baby or babies!

About: I’ve spent the past 6 years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors! I’ve cared for households with as many as 16 dogs at once, including a litter of newborn puppies, and have experience with multiple-pet households, administering medications, and extended overnight stays. I’ve also built lasting relationships with several families I’ve pet-sat for over the years, which is one of my favorite parts of what I do! But beyond the experience, I genuinely LOVE getting to know each animal. Whether your pup loves hiking, playing fetch, learning tricks, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I want to make sure they’re getting more than just the basics. I don’t just fit your pets into my schedule. I make them part of my day! 🐾 With two dogs and four cats of my own, caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday routine! I’m very familiar with early morning potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and everything else that comes with having pets. I’m comfortable following specific routines and adjusting my day around each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important consistency is, especially when their owners are away, and I always do my best to keep their daily routines as familiar and comfortable as possible. Pet care isn’t something I just squeeze into my day. I make it my focus! ‼️A Little Note About Pricing! ‼️ I genuinely love what I do, and I understand that every pet and household has different needs! While I do have my standard rates listed, I’m always happy to discuss pricing and see what works best for YOU! My biggest priority is making sure your pets receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! ❤️ Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I know how stressful it can be for animals when their owners are away, which is why I especially enjoy caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re surrounded by familiar smells, routines, and favorite places. I pay close attention to each animal’s behavior, body language, and individual needs. Whether that means recognizing when they’re anxious, giving them space, or offering a little extra attention, I want them to feel safe and comfortable with me. I believe great pet care goes beyond simply following a list of instructions. Of course, I’ll make sure every need is met, but I also make an intentional effort to give your pets genuine companionship, affection, and enrichment throughout our time together. I want them to feel loved, not just looked after! I have experience administering medications, preparing homemade meals according to owners’ instructions, caring for senior dogs and puppies, and managing multi-pet households. I always follow your feeding schedules, house rules, and specific care instructions. I also treat your home with respect! With your permission, I’m happy to help with light tidying or small household tasks while you’re away. And of course, I love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands! ❤️

“Alexa is a very kind person. It shows as she was genuinely gentle approaching Lucy and Denny Hamlin for the first time. It was love at first sight lol. Alexa is really great organizing toys and keeping kennels clean. She is very polite and I would enjoy having her back to help me with Lucy and Denny Hamlin again!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years. In the last 10 years I have been fostering retired racing grey hounds and huskies so I'm ready to give every dog in between the care and attention they deserve. I have regularly watched friends and families animals since I was young. I am excited for every opportunity to get to know new dogs and fall more in love with my regulars! Please let me be your peace of mind the next time you're out of town! I'm currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to fill that time with taking care of sweet loveable pets. As with any of my ventures, I put forth 100% of my energy to making sure your pet has a great time while you're away. I guarantee a calm, happy and healthy pet upon your return! I've seen dogs become less anxious when they are staying in their own home, in the neighborhood they know. They know you will eventually return and they dont need the transition time it takes for them to become comfortable in a unfamilar place. For that reason, I do like to promote house sitting as the least stressful method of boarding for nervious pets. Please let me know if you require any plants to watered as id be happy to help you in any other way I can. I prefer to keep my bookings to one dog or one family at a time. This is to ensure I give each dog my full attention to keep them safe and happy while yall are missing eachother! This means that I prefer walking in quiet neighborhoods instead of a park with more distractions so I can get familiar with your dog's responses and they can get familiar with me during our first few walks together. After a few walks, and your permission, we can go to dog parks where we slowly work up to being unleased. I strive for 2 or more walks a day during the summer, 3 or more walks a day during spring, fall, and winter. When we arent walking or playing outside, me and your pets will be chilling inside with 2 or more feedings a day. If you book on a holiday it is likely I will have freeze dried chicken or salmon wet food to give your pet as a special holiday treat! I feel that if its a human holiday, its also a special day for our pets because they're family.

About: I have always had pets ranging from dogs and cats to chickens and horses, growing up. I live on a farm, so I have a lot of experience with animals. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats who I couldn’t live without, and I’d love to meet some new furry friends! I currently only work part-time, so I can be flexible with your schedule in taking care of your animals. I want to work with you in finding the best way to care for your pets, so feel free to reach out on how we can arrange a pet sit. I’m a very clean person, and I would always make sure to clean up and mess that either I or your pets happen to make. I make sure to take gentle care of my animals, and I would apply the same level of care to yours. I make sure to spend plenty of quality time with the animals instead of just doing the bare minimum. Please let me know if there are any special toys or tricks that your animals like the most so we can kick it off with a good time!

About: "Lifelong animal lover with a gentle touch and a reliable schedule. Whether it's a walk, a cuddle, or special care, your pet will be treated like family!" Pet care is a natural part of my day—I plan my schedule to give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. I have my own kitty at home as well. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping them comfortable and happy in their home. I make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, and loved—just like you would!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I have been taking care of animals since I was 15 years old. I stared working at a vets office and haven’t looked back. Pet care can look like many different things in my week such as, a single feeding, a walk, a check in or the full on in home service with all the feedings and all the walks. While, I would love to have every dog and cat over to my house I can’t realistically do that b/c I own a cat who does love other cats and she tolerates dogs, your dog or cat would have to be cat friendly. So most of my jobs are me coming to your home whether that is a drop in or a full time boarding situation while you’re on vacation.
