Dog Sitting Damascus

“Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him”

“Jayne did great with my dog, as usual. She followed the feeding instructions, and gave my senior dog the care he needed while I was out. She sent me cute pictures of him during their time together.”

“Kat is always eager to help to check in on my cat Hank, and is very timely and communicative. It's a great feeling to know that I can rely on her when I'm out of town.”

“Anika came by for the meet and greet and was exactly on time! She is very friendly and personable. She took care of our two cats while we were gone (although she didn't see much of Zipper because he's shy). She sent pictures each day of playing with Pixie. I would recommend her to anyone.”

Lynda B.

“Hailey was so helpful and communicative. I really appreciate the pictures, the updates, and making sure everything was set in the end. I recommend and would rebook.”

Alexandra B.

“Kena did a great job at checking in on my cats while I was out of town. She communicated well and sent updates each day. I would definitely book again in the future!”

Janelle C.

“Ashley was so good with drop-in visits for my two kitties! (I knew it was a perfect match during our meet-and-greet, when my normally shy Esme came right up to her.) Ashley took time to play with them during drop-ins and her photos of them being healthy and happy were so reassuring. Ashley is also amazing to work with — flexible when I needed and extra day. She's a great communicator and just a great human. It's hard to leave Zeke and Esme when I travel, but I know they're in great hands with Ashley.”

About: Dedicated Certified Dog Trainer and Pet First Aid/CPR Instructor with over 30 years experience caring for a variety of pets for family, friend's, and coworkers. I also have over 4 years experience working in high-volume doggie daycare, boarding, and training environment. I'm experienced in working with dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes (XS-XXL), and temperaments. I am also experienced in caring for cats, rats, guinea pigs, and bunnies. The pets in my care will be treated like my own and receive top-tier care. I work from home, so your pet won't be left alone or crated all day. I am insured, licensed, and certified in dog training and care. I have a fully fenced backyard (6ft tall vinyl fencing), baby gates, and x-pens to keep dogs out of unwanted areas or keep dogs separated. I enjoy capturing pictures and videos of the pets in my care doing various activities and am willing to send you updates throughout their stay. I'm starting my own in home pet care and am home with your pets 24/7. Everyday the pets in my care are let out for a potty break upon arrival or in the morning, before coming back into their separate spaces to have breakfast (if boarding or parent's brought breakfast). About an hour (time to let their food settle) after breakfast we go out for another supervised potty break, depending on the weather we'll stay outside and engage in some supervised play or come inside and do some enrichment activities before enjoying some down time to relax and reset. If you have requested a lunch for your pet, I'll provide a safe and quiet space for you pet to enjoy some lunch between 12pm-1pm. After letting their lunch settle( between 1pm-2pm) we'll go back out for a supervised potty break and some more supervised playtime, enrichment, or go for a walk in the neighborhood. I live in a house in a quiet neighborhood. I have 2 pet friendly dogs of my own, a husband, and a 16 year old son. I am licensed, insured, and certified in dog training and care. My backyard is fully fenced (6ft tall) with security cameras all around the outside. I also have baby gates and x-pens to keep pets separated if needed. I have poop scoops and a bucket for quick and easy clean up, pet safe/vet approved sanitizer to keep things clean/sanitized, pet first aid supplies, toys, enrichment/training equipment, a dog run, kennels, water bowls, a sandbox for digging in, swimming pools/sprinklers and air condtioning for hot days, and plan to add more outdoor equipment for a more fun and enriching time. Your pets will be treated like one of my own.

About: Hi. I'm Dominique, a very responsible woman in the 44-49 age range. I'm a freelance business manager and I have worked from home since 2013. The home I share with my equally animal-loving husband has a small, fenced yard with grass, a patio and an upper garden bed that pups love to poop and dig in. Just 4 houses down, on the same street, is a beautiful playground and beyond that a large green space and enclosed dog park. If boarded with us, Fido will get plenty of attention and just the right amount of activity. If Fido needs lots of walks and exercise, we can do that. If Fido is elderly, injured, heat-sensitive or just a lazy couch potato, we're good with that, too. I'm an experienced caregiver for dogs of all sizes and ages, including "aggressive" breeds, too. Bring on the pit bulls, Am Staffs and Akitas, etc. We live in Windswept Waters and we would love to be a resource for your pet. Bonus: it forces me to look up from the computer more often. Fido and I both need some sunlight and fresh air for work/life balance. Thanks for reading! I work from home as a freelance business manager. I can take frequent breaks in the morning or afternoon for play time outside, walks, potty breaks or feeding. Hubby walks pretty much every night after dinner, with dogs or without. I have a fenced backyard that is very secure. Dogs will be leashed and/or harnessed any time we are not in the house, backyard or the off-leash dog park in my neighborhood (if appropriate). The front and back yards have cameras so I can keep an eye on any pups who just love laying on the patio in the sun or playing in the rain, beyond what I can comfortably do. You know when they just don’t want to come in?? OK. I can still check on you, sunflower. This helps out front, too, so we know if any dogs or FedEx trucks or other triggers are present before walks. All dogs will be fitted upon arrival with a collar that has my information on it, as well as an Apple AirTag tracking device, just as extra insurance in case Fido bolts out the door (when I grab a package from the porch, for example). I’ve never had to use these but it helps me sleep better. Any dogs overlapping with yours (a couple hours of daycare or overnight) will be dogs I know very well or we will have a visit beforehand for everyone to sniff and investigate. If it doesn’t work out, I prioritize whoever was booked first. We never have more than 4 dogs and the 4 dogs can come from 2 households, max. If you have 4 dogs, yay. If you have 3 and they can handle a playmate for a while, yay. If you have 5 dogs, that’s too much for me to manage with my day job.

“Shianne is great! She took care of my kitty while my dogs and I were camping this week. It was such a relief to know my kitty was being so well cared for. All of my animals loved her immediately, the pups wouldn’t leave her alone? I highly highly recommend her.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. At one point my family had eight cats and two dogs. I recently had a rescue cat that followed me home. He had cancer so I had to give him medicine orally every day. I have two 50 lb dogs right now as well. They are both rescue puppies and the first one I got was sick, so I had to give her medicine daily. She is great now! I am comfortable with dogs and cats that require extra care. I am a stay-at-home mom so as long as I'm not dropping off or picking up my boys, I am available. I have a vehicle so I can get to wherever I need to go. When I am at a client's house I will always follow the procedures and guidelines that they feel comfortable with whether I am taking their pet out for a walk or just checking in to make sure their pet is happy and healthy.

About: I have years of professional petsitting experience outside of Rover. I'm an attentive, calm presence for your dog when you're away. My background includes volunteering at the humane society and fostering dogs, cats, and small animals, plus growing up with dogs myself — so I'm comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I have specific experience with: Senior dogs Reactive and anxious dogs on walks Puppies Administering medications You can count on me to treat your space with the same respect and care I'd want for my own — tidy, responsible, and mindful of your home while you're gone. My style is steady, calm and confident, which tends to work especially well for dogs who are older or nervous, while high-energy dogs will be safe to express their big personalities. My availability is flexible, so just reach out with what you need and we'll figure out a schedule that works. Weekdays: Mon - Fri: 6am to 11pm overnight sitting, walking, exercise and visits. Weekends: 9am to 12am overnight sitting, walking, exercise and visits I am currently available and open to scheduling. I'm usually able to be flexible when needed. Let me know what you need! I treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want for my own — following your routines closely, from feeding times to walks to medication dosages, and staying mindful of any quirks or triggers you flag ahead of time. I have experience giving medications, so pets with health needs are in safe hands, and I keep things calm and predictable for anxious or reactive dogs and cats. Your home stays secure and tidy while you're away. I'll check in with updates during my visits, so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Megan is always such a pleasure around our dogs :) Every experience is a great one with her and we are so thankful to have found someone so reliable and kind with our babies”

“Savannah is a cat whisperer. My two cats hide whenever someone comes in the house. They came right to her and stayed out the whole visit. She even invented a new game where they chased treats. Savannah clearly loves animals and your furbabies will be well taken care of!”

“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our two pups during the daily visits. Lindsey even offers to stay longer than requested to keep the pups company!”

About: I grew up with pets and have been taking care of my own for almost 15 years now. I have experience administering medication, such as pills, eye or ear drops, fluids, and insulin shots. I volunteered at a wildlife rehabilitation center so I’m used to feeding and cleaning after all kinds of animals. I am clean, organized, patient, and have a calm demeanor that puts pets at ease. I will take care of your babies like they’re my own, and follow the instructions closely :) I work 7am to 4pm Monday through Friday and I’m available at any other time. I can go there before and after work, and I’m fully free on weekends. I can also go during my lunch time if the location is in or near Oregon City. I’m able to crate your dogs if needed. I can take them on walks, or to parks or short hikes if preferred. I can house sit and take care of your plants and do some light cleaning if needed as well.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and even birds/reptiles of both friends and family before. I use to work in the pet field and have a love of all animals. Ive owned animals of many kinds. I did also train for a short time as both a dog and cat groomer. I have owned and cared for special needs, senior and young animals too. I also have some experience with administering medicines to both cats and dogs. I am currently working part time as a security officer and don't have a set schedule so i have alot of free time to spend with your pups or kits. I can offer several hours a day of enrichment and am willing to travel to please your puppies or kitties. I love outdoor adventures or just sitting at home one the couch cuddling if that what you and your pets prefer. I will care for your dogs in your home as you would like. If your dog has a set schedule and routine, i have no issues with following this. Same for your feline friends. I have no issues following your instructions as written and will do my best to make it a fun and positive experience for both you and your pet.
