Cat Sitting in Clatskanie Heights

“Joyce stepped in to care for our two elderly, medically challenging cats after our regular pet sitter had to cancel last minute. She is incredibly responsive, friendly, and timely in her communication; she shared pictures and regular updates throughout her visits with our pets, and gave both our kitties plenty of love and attention in addition to their needed oral medication and twice daily insulin injections. Thank you, Joyce!”

“David took really great care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. Would definitely recommend!”

“Kris was amazing in taking care of my cats while we were gone! I can’t say how much i appreciate that they’re loved and cared for when we aren’t there. 10/10 definitely recommend, and will use next time we’re away!”

“Kendra was wonderful and able to step in last minute for me and my girl. She stayed in touch, and my fennie loved her, and I knew that to be true because she doesn’t get comfortable on anyone else but me. Always appreciative for Kendra’s help and will definitely rebook her”

About: I have owned and cared for all types of pets and animals all of my life ranging from dogs, cats, ferrets, birds, horses and ducks. I was taught at an early age how to care for my own pets, that they were my responsibility. Pets in my care will be treated like my own, who is very spoiled. I consider pets part of the family and I keep mine for life. In my care, any instructions given for your fur baby will be strictly adhered to. I have owned puppies and dogs of all sizes. The largest being Roudy, my 225 pound English Mastiff. I have also owned horses, ducks, cats, water turles, hamserts, guinea pigs and a ferret. I have also raised Golden Retrievers. My very first job in high school was working for a local veterinarian assisting in every aspect of the business from vaccinations to assisting in surgeries (my favorite) to helping with farm animals and giving medications. I currently have a very active young Border Collie named Bailey who loves playmates. My large fenced yard, along with walks and daily fetch, allows for plenty of exercise. Your baby would receive the same attention that is afforded to Bailey. They will become a part of my family while they are here. If so desired I can send daily updates and pictures to offset any anxiety that you may have leaving your baby in new hands. I am retired so I have nothing scheduled outside of the home on a regular basis except for volunteering a few hours a week at at local non-proftit Veterans Organization that provides resources and programs for suicide prevention and stress management to veterans and first responders . This is a farm conisting of many programs. I am working with horses, cows, turkeys, chicken, goats, sheep, pigs, rabbitts, dogs, cats, and mostly therapy horses. I am home full time to care for all of your fur baby's requirements and needs. I have a large fenced yard and friendly dog to keep your fur baby company and exercised. I also have a large crate and outdoor kennel and dog house if your pup requires either of these for any reason. I do allow animals on my furniture but will keep them off of it if that is your wish.

“Theresa is awesome! Diesel looks forward to seeing her every time. She made sure my animals were comfortable during my trip. The best sitter hands down.”

“Hi my name is Scott. I've known Chantelle for 4+ years. She loves pets, is reliable, follows instructions, a great communicator and more. She also pet sits for me when I go out town and is also conscientious on securing my home after each visit. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”

About: I started young, growing up with my mom’s therapy dog that she trained and certified to work in our local school district. From there I helped her launch a dog food and treat business! After that I moved into dog bathing/grooming and dog handling and management of a daycare and boarding facility from there! The last 7 years I have been working for daycare and boarding facilities, both as a handler and as a manager. In handling I honed my skills to allow for safe playgroups of 10-45 dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes. Management included management of an 8000 sq. Ft. Indoor space with 5 acres of outdoor space, and operating an individual enrichment program(IEP) for dogs that didn’t succeed or did not successfully pass evaluations or feel comfortable in large group play settings. Daycare is not for every dog, and that’s okay! Daily activities include: medication management, let outs, small play groups, food prep, general housekeeping, bathing and nail trims, and walks. I have been extensively trained in force free techniques to ensure everyone is happy and healthy. Training for handling included a 3 week hands on and in person course work with a test at the end. Extensive training on dog behavior, body language, and how to keep pets safe in extreme situations. I am working Monday through Friday nine to five and am available for weekend services, or services starting Friday evenings. I have to be available to be hour before or after that timeframe as well should I be called in. I have been extensively trained in force free techniques to ensure everyone is happy and healthy. I have dachshunds and they are a bit territorial, so I don’t allow for boarding in my home. But am happy to come to your pet and give them a day they won’t forget!

“I couldn’t be more pleased. Jane took the time to know me and my dog at a pre meet and greet . I felt very comfortable leaving Biscotti with her. I appreciated her sending a photo of their walk and debrief note after the walk . I will definitely be calling only Jane in the future”

“Great job! My cats were very happy with their new friend.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors pets since I was 10 years old. I love to take dogs on walks as well as go on runs. I volunteered at a Humane Society for 2 years and came across a wide variety of dogs and cats, from size, breed, and most importantly personality. I enjoy meeting new animals and learning their favorite things to do. I also give some mean belly rubs and love to cuddle with furry friends. I am a college student who is home for winter break, so I don’t have many responsibilities currently. With that being said, I can make myself available for walks, overnight pet sitting, and drop in visits on Monday-Friday. For weekend visits I would appreciate more advance but I’m pretty flexible. I would love to make your pets a priority in my schedule:) As for safety, this can vary depending on how you want your pet to be cared for. Some basic safety measures I would take would be to keep dogs on the leash while walking them and making sure to go outside with the dogs when they go to the bathroom. For cats and dogs, I would make sure all windows and doors are closed so they don’t get out or get into something that they shouldn’t.

“Autumn was great. Our cat and house were in great shape when we returned , which wasn't a surprise, since Autumn sent reports and pic every day.”

“Julia is great with parts she has a lot of experience with different animals and behavior. All my animals love her, she has a way with pets and can train them so easily. I would have her babysit mine all the time and they are great now.”

“You won’t find anyone who will love your dogs up more than Elaina and Ryan! They’re crazy about them. You can feel confident that your dogs will be well cared for.”

About: I have 2 russian tortoises and a golden doodle! I grew up with 2 cats and a dog. I have been around most animals and love to care for them all. I work full time and I am in online school full time, I can check on your pets morning and night as well as throughout the day, and house sit! I can only care for your pets in your home. I will spend as much time as you need me to with your pet and I will give it as much attention as you would.

“Very grateful for her! She was able to get me in last minute and on a holiday! She was very good and punctual about everything! Very grateful!”

“I highly recommend Eduardo G. when it comes to pet care. He is knowledgeable, responsible, caring, attentive and honest ! I am very trustworthy of Eduardo, I can not have anyone else care for my pets since I met this amazing dog caregiver. He is the one I always go to when i have any question, comments or concerns regarding my fur babies, he is the PNW Dog Whisperer! All my dogs love him and respect him. I was very impressed when I got to Witness my Cane Corsos' ability to understand Eduardos commands, that was the cherry on the top of my ice cream sundae ! (I have 3 doggies total) . If you are looking for a sign to get in contact with this gentleman, this is your sign, you'll be happy that you did!”

About: I rescued my first pair of kittens at 18 and bottle fed them and their littermates, and have since fostered 4 more litters of kittens, working patiently with feral moms to gain their trust, so I’m great with respecting the boundaries of shy creatures and gaining trust at their pace. I also have 7 months experience boarding dogs of all sizes and temperaments, walking and providing basic training and grooming. I’ve worked extensively with puppies planning and carrying out training routines, house training, and crate training. I’ve also worked with senior dogs, and am great and giving medicine in a stress free and gentle way. I am also fear free certified! I also have experience with farm animals and have cared for chickens, ducks, turkeys, goats, and pigs. I am available any time of day and any day of the week for your pets needs. I wake up early and respond quickly for your convenience I am fear free certified so I am trained to recognize signs of stress and fear in animals and know how to address those symptoms when they come up. I have experience working with rescue animals, and have even fostered five puppies and several kitten litters. I love creating mentally stimulating environments crafted for each individual animal through play and training. I’m great at sticking to routines and following instructions and have worked with both young and older cats and dogs and dogs that are blind or deaf.

“Charlotte is excellent with animals. Not only are her dogs loved, but she also loves every animal she comes into contact with. She has cared for our dog and cat on several occasions, sometimes for an afternoon, weekend, or even a week when we couldn't take our dog with us. The cat just needs to be fed and let out in the morning and back in at dark - so he is easy. My dog is much needier - she will spend hours with him - he doesn't play much (he's a senior now), but he loves to be petted and she will pet him until he gets tired. Charlotte would be a great asset to Rover!”

“Mary babysat my little Shih Tzu Nabi for a week. She gave me updates on my sweet girl while I was away. When I came and picked her up she was so happy and comfortable. That definitely lets me know Nabi had a great time. Definitely recommend Mary! She’s so amazing with animals!”
