House Sitting in Cottrell

“This is my first time using Rover and we were looking for an overnight sitter for mainly my little Genee girl who has never not had family around her. Anika filled that gap for us and did an amazing job. She put up with all my messages and provided pictures of Genee on walks and playing. She even included pics of the cat lounging around as usual. I was worried about leaving Genee for the first time but Anika made it much easier for me! I would highly recommend her and I will be calling upon her again when we need a sitter!”

“I have a senior dog who requires daily medication and special care. Wendy did a fantastic job watching her overnight while I was out of town! She is very responsive, reliable, and followed all my instructions. She really put my mind at ease knowing my pup was being so well cared for.”

About: I grew up on property where people would dump their cats. I have helped raise bottle babies, seniors and momma cats. I also grew up with 2 dogs, taking care of them with my mom. I currently have 4 cats of my own and help care for my grandmas dog Romeo who you see in my profile picture. I may not have veterinary licensing or certifications, but I have years of real life experience and promise your animal will be well cared for and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to care for any animal, fuzzy, scaley or slimy. I currently have a pretty open schedule for drops ins, walks and overnight stays. I babysit Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons so I am unavailable from 12-5 those days of the week, but potentially open to accepting a request in Gresham within that time frame. I am comfortable crating, feeding, cleaning up after & doing basically anything a pet owner needs to do for their animal. I will respect your home and your wishes with your pet and be sure to maintain a calm, caring environment for your pet to feel safe in.

“Our original housesitting plans fell through at the last minute and we were leaving for the airport in a couple hours. Tiffiny was quick to respond and come meet our puppy. She was very flexible and took excellent care of our pup and our house, greatly relieving our stress and anxiety. Levi loved playing with Tiffiny and her daughter! We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.”

About: I’ve had my fair share of petsitting and dog walking and I enjoyed it a lot. I also have had pets that I have cared for. I have a very flexible schedule since I am currently unemployed and not going to school. I am open most days and times as well as some weekends. I have had many pets and have loved and cared for them. Currently I have a dog that I care for. I hope to take care of your pets as well.

“Melinda took excellent care of our pets and home. She was communicative, dependable, and very accommodating when our plans unexpectedly changed. She even gave our cat, Tiger, her inhaler without any issues—something we were a bit nervous about, but she handled it with ease. We felt completely confident leaving everything in her hands. We'd absolutely work with her again.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life from the day I was born. I grew up on a farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. My passion for animals isn't just a hobby—it's been the focus of my personal and professional life. I have over 8 years of dog training experience and am comfortable working hands-on with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and behavior types. Whether you have a playful puppy, an energetic adolescent, a senior dog needing extra patience, or a dog with unique behavioral needs, I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I also absolutely love cats and enjoy building trust with each cat at their own pace. From social butterflies to shy kitties, I make sure every feline receives the attention and care they deserve. My experience extends far beyond dogs and cats. I have cared for rabbits, rats, hamsters, and other small animals, as well as reptiles, fish, and exotic pets. Thanks to my farm upbringing, I also have extensive experience with horses, livestock, and other farm animals. Because of my diverse background, I'm comfortable caring for multi-pet households and pets with specialized care routines. I understand that every animal is unique, and I treat each one as if they were my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. When you book with me, you're choosing someone with a lifetime of animal experience, professional handling skills, and a deep commitment to providing the highest quality care for animals of all kinds. 🐾❤️ Pet care is part of my daily life. I have years of hands-on animal care experience and build my schedule around providing reliable feeding, exercise, enrichment, training, and companionship. 🐾 I provide personalized care based on each pet's needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, medication administration, training reinforcement, and plenty of affection. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you're away. 🐾❤️

“Nevaeh was so sweet with our pup! She sent lots of photos and took great care of him! I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of houses, farms and pets of all shapes and sizes! I’m currently working on being a certified dog trainer. I know exercises to not only calm pets but also earn their trust. I’m a full time dog sitter and walker! So your pet is my top priority I’m a full time animal sitter!! I have all the time in the world to take care of your fur babies! I also have 2 dogs of my own that my partner is home with all day My two dogs are very well trained, they can be kenneled or not depending on how long they’ll be in the house. They are very friendly with other dogs. I don’t have kids or cats in my apartment either

“We had such peace of mind the weekend Erin stayed with our two dogs. She had a very calming presence and the dogs responded so well to her, even during the initial consultation (they get worked up easily and don’t always like “strangers”). She gave consistent updates, was very on top of communication and well organized! We can’t wait to have her back!”

About: Clients often tell me their pets feel truly cared for by me, like an extension of themselves, because I offer the same love, attention, and intention they give their pets. I work and go to grad school remotely, so I have tons of time to attend to, play with, and love your sweet pets throughout the day. I organize my schedule around you and your pet's needs once you have booked a sitting with me. I live in a tiny house (on the larger side) on a large fenced piece of property. I can give your pup as much indoor/outdoor time as requested.

“Good communication and cares about your dog!”

“Katherine was great with my two older but active dogs. I came back from my trip to happy, relaxed pups and a clean house. I'd definitely ask Katherine to dogsit again!”
