House Sitting in Cottage Grove

“Jessica clearly loves animals. She was able to get our senior kitties to warm up to her relatively quickly. She and our senior dog were good friends while we were away. Jessica managed several different medications and supplements as well as individual feeding instructions among our animals. She arrived soon after we left in the early morning and stayed until late to be sure that our animals were well taken care of.”

“Erica is an excellent communicator with good common sense (a huge compliment!). My dog liked her from the moment they met. I recommend her without reservation.”

“This is the second time we’ve had Rikki for house sitting. We will definitely have her back. She’s considerate, sends messages and pictures every day, and makes sure to thoroughly understand the care instructions. The best part is, Louie is relaxed and happy upon our return.”

Susan T.

“Jessie took wonderful care of our two pups and cat while we were away. He communicated daily and spent a lot of time with our fur kids, who always have separation anxiety while we are gone. We would recommend using Jesse for overnight stays.”

About: We really like to travel with a mission and without making a huge carbon footprint. Pet sitting fulfills both of these by letting us help other pet owners, love on their pets and by "recyling" accommodations. We are full of love and responsibility and want to share this as well. Debbie and I are a retired MD and RN who love animals and pets. We understand how important pets are to our souls. We have both had pets in our lives for as long as we can remember. We love the outdoors, hiking, skiing, pickleball, and of course traveling. We love meeting new people and exploring new cultures. We had a 14 yo Golden Retriever "Indie" that passed away last summer. We used to take her on walks on local trails, the beach and our neighborhood. Our pet cat "Tiger" passed away a few years ago. Fortunately one of our best friends is a vet. Our yard is fenced.

“Amy was a caring and fun cat sitter for Cal and Cookie. She played with them and sent pictures and messages while we were away. She also left the home clean and ready for our return. Thanks Amy!”

“Athena s the ultimate cat care giver! She is conscientious about sharing updates regarding how our cats have been doing in our absence. She is very supportive and easy to work with and has a relaxing presence which was a superb match for our cats. We could not have asked for more and will not hesitate to request her services again!”

“Seth is awesome. My dog loves him, he’s prompt, reliable and professional. Highly recommended! Thank you Seth!”

About: I grew up in a household with multiple dogs, cats, birds, and rodents at any given time. I have experience with poultry and livestock as well. I enjoy spending time and caring for any breed/age of an animal. I am familiar with and comfortable giving medication to pets on schedule. I have experience giving oral meds to canines and felines. I have just recently lost 3 of my furbabies to natural causes of old age, and I currently have 2 Scottish Fold cats. I work a FT job M-F but can be flexible with my schedule to help accommodate yours. I am also available for weekends and overnight work. I would love the opportunity to play a role in caring for your pet. I'm currently working a full-time job but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to allow me to care for your pets. I work in a dog friendly office and depending on your dogs personality and behavior with other dogs, they can come to work with me. I don't work weekends and can dedicate that time to your pet. I do not currently offer pet care at my home. However I will come to your home in the environment that you know and your pet is familiar with. I can offer to take your dog to work with me on work days, if they are well socialized with other pooches.

“Devon did a wonderful job watching our dogs and house. Our dogs were very well taken care of.”

“Hailey was super attentive and proactive with our 8 month old puppy. She took her on daily walks and even bathed her for us. The picture updates were so nice and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. She also watered my garden and fed the chickens, which was a HUGE relief for us! I highly recommend Hailey and am so grateful to have found her!”

Katie B.

“Nathan was fabulous! He was very calming when meeting the dogs for the first time, and he did everything we asked just perfectly. We will definitely call him again!”

“Hanein was a lovely and attentive pet sitter. Super communicative, easy to work with, and my pups were well taken care of. Even helped me with a last-minute medicine that I didn't expect to be needed during their sitting. I would recommend Hanein!”

Alexa G.

“Amy was great with my pets! Would book with her again!”

“Hannah took wonderful care of my chihuahua and cat! My chihuahua is very particular about people and he absolutely adores her! She is my go to sitter. Thank you for making my fur babies feel loved and at home while we were away. 😊”

About: I've always been in a household that has had at least one dog growing up in California to my travels here to Oregon 9 years ago where I fell in love with the state and made a home here. I have had goldens and labs, and have taken care of a wide variety of sizes and shapes of pups, from the smallest pup to the sweet yet slobbery Mastiff. I currently have one dog who is my boyfriend's service dog, she is a 4 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever that is the calmest dog until you get her football out! Then the play never stops. Since she cannot go to work with him anymore, she would not mind a buddy to play with. We constantly take her for walks and runs and swims. Very dog friendly house I have afternoons open and available and almost every weekend! I love getting out and walking dogs around the neighborhood or taking them to a park I have a fenced in yard for Cammie or any dog to run around, go outside to take care of their needs, or chase a bird or squirrel! The high school field is right down the block that we can go to any time

About: Hi, I'm Becky (Rebecca), I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a small child and I absolutely love meeting new furry friends. I’ve been pet sitting for friends for about 10 years now and I can honestly say it’s one of the most fun things I do. I’ve trained my own dogs and my friends dogs with positive reinforcement always, treats galore! Play time is always tug of war or fetch and maybe I can teach your furry friends some new tricks while I take care of them. Potty breaks can happen as often as needed, just let me know. I am very athletic so if your pooch needs to go out on a run, I’m there for that! If you have any special needs just let me know ahead of time please. I have a pretty flexible schedule with a typical 1 hour availability in the middle of the day to come say hi to your furry friends while you're at work. My approach with any animal is that they just want to have fun, play and feel safe. I find that most animals love to cuddle with me and have a good time playing as well.

“Pups happy, house clean, great communication and lots of pictures sent while I was away. Thank you!!! You helped my vacation be a vacation so I didn't have to worry about my doggos the entire time. :)”

“I was so impressed by Sha's rapport with my animals. She agreed to a long stay with 2 unruly puppies, 2 older dogs and a cat afraid of new people. I felt bad about leaving her with my gang of critters and for so long, almost 12 hours, but she handled them well and I was able to fully enjoy the event I attended without worry. Sha clearly has extensive knowledge about different animals and displays that when she interacts with them. On my arrival home, my animals were fed properly and my house was in good order and Sha survived with a smile on her face. I absolutely recommend Sha to anyone, especially if they have numerous and diverse animals. Sha has established herself as my go to pet and house sitter. My thanks to Sha for providing care I can trust so I can get a break from my menagerie.”

About: I am retired, ex professional, experienced in animal care, domestic, horses and exotic animals. I have done pet and house sitting in France and in the usa. I have excellent references on my website. I can give oral medication, puppies will go out every 2 hours. I have an adorable poodle who will love playing with your puppy, she is like a mother to puppies. I used to do dog rescue while living in France, and placed all dogs saved in very good homes, this was my main concern. I can read dogs body language, and dealt with traumatized dogs, among them my silver poodle, who was very traumatized by his past. I do like old dogs and have adopted some in the past. If a dog swallow something he should not have, I know how to make them throw up. I am retired, as a parent of 2 purbred miniature poodles, I spend most of my time at home, and take them out reguarly. When I have to go out, I am never gone long. I give a lots of attention to my dogs and dogs I sit. I will give the same care to your dogs and if I take them on a walk, will never let them approach a dog I don't know. the yard is fenced but will always go outside with the dogs and will take them on a leash when it's dark. I live outside cottage grove, I am very protective of my own dogs, will be with yours, too.
