Cat Sitting in Dayton

About: PLEASE READ: I currently work in McMinnville so while I am able to pet sit, unless you live within 15 minutes of McMinnville, I will be unable to let animals out in the middle of the day. I've been caring for friends and family's pets for 6 years. I like keeping our furry friends on their schedule and company while loved ones are away. I'm comfortable giving medication and taking care of senior pets. I'm detail oriented and am happy to give status updated as needed. I'd love the chance to care for your pets like they were one of mine. I currently work full time so while I am able to pet sit and do walks, it would need to be close enough to do on my hour lunch break., Currently I prefer to care for pets at their own home, as I feel that being in the same environment helps being with a new person

About: I have had animals my whole life (birds, cats, dogs, etc.) and have always fed, walked, groomed, and made sure they had plenty of outside play time as well. I've taken care of family and friends animals as well taking care to follow any specific instructions they have. I've cared for puppies and kittens newly born as well. Currently my roommate has two cats and a small dog as well that I help out with when she's busy. I love animals with all my heart and would love to be chosen to care for yours! I work part time 3 days a week so I have plenty of time for play, walks, and getting to just hang out with your pet! I'm available for boarding fri-tue because I work 3 am on the days I do work. I will be getting a new work from home job soon so my availability will open up! My roommate has 2 cats and a doxen/corgi mix. On the days she works I feed them all in the morning and take her dog out to use the bathroom every few hours throughout the day and we love to go to the park! I feed them all dinner on days she needs it as well.

“Maleny is awesome! My dog got in a great walk and she updated me at the end! Very easy to get ahold of and communicate with. Thank you, Maleny!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life — with over 10 years of personal ownership and experience in dog sitting, walking, and training. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments — from laid-back seniors to high-energy puppies. I’m especially experienced with young or active dogs and love providing high-energy play, consistent routines, and plenty of cuddles. I’ve also trained dogs in basic obedience, hunting, and even service dog skills, so I’m comfortable reinforcing training while you’re away. I offer walking, feeding, crate training, medication administration, and overnight care — and I always tailor my approach to your dog’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a calm, consistent presence or someone to match their zoomies, I’ve got you covered! I’m currently on summer break! I’m available weekly for dog sitting (overnights or daytime care), dog walking, drop-ins, and more. House Sitting: Please keep in mind that I do not provide constant care at my listed rates. If you need constant care, please reach out to me about my rates. I have my own dog to care for, as well as walks and drop-ins for other clients throughout the day. I always make sure pets are not left alone longer than the agreed upon timeframe. But if you need constant care, I will make sure to block off the dates you need for your pet(s) only! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space and routine with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, walking routines, crate time, or medication needs—so your pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment. I’m also happy to continue any training or reinforcement you’ve already been working on, whether it’s basic commands, crate manners, or specific behavior routines. Consistency is key, and I always strive to keep your pet’s progress moving forward while you’re away. I aim to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible, offering them love, play, and structure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m tidy, responsible, and always make sure your home is just as you left it—or better. Your pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.

“Erica was WONDERFUL! She responded promptly to our last minute request for a drop-in visit for our pup, Olive. Erica sent us updates about the visit with photos! We hope to use Erica’s services again in the future. I submit my highest recommendation”

“Couldn't be more pleased with Heavenly. She has treated my dad's dog with love and care, is consistent and reliable, and easy to communicate with.”

Erik W.

“Michelle has always went above and beyond to care for our dogs. It is wonderful having someone you trust with the care of your senior dog and your puppy! Our Senior Dog remember her and is always so happy to see her! His approval is our approval!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Isamar and Caleb and ! They were incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and thorough in getting to know both of our labs. They took the time to ask great questions and really understand each dog’s needs. One of our labs has cerebellar hypoplasia, which affects his balance and ability to follow commands, and they handled him with so much patience, care, and compassion. It meant a lot to see how intentional they were—taking notes and making sure they understood how to support him safely and appropriately. They also sent frequent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were in great hands and genuinely cared for. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, kind, and attentive sitters!”

Marissa R.

“McKenna is wonder!!! Daily pictures and updates on my little man made my trip away so much better! Will definitely use them again in the future.”

“Sara was wonderful and took a super last minute booking to let our girl out to potty. She was able to get there in under 10 minutes and loved on my pup.”

Addison M.

“Jaime did a great job looking in on my two shy kitties, and making sure they had plenty of food and water. She went above and beyond seeking out the cats and sending me a picture of them under the bed; it was reassurance that I left my cats in good hands while I was away.”

Nina L.

“Meghan was so sweet to my kitties. The litter was cleaned and the floor by the box was swept. Their water dish had been cleaned and filled, and their food bowls were washed. Meghan went above my expectations and I will DEFINITELY use her again. My kitties are my babies and it was hard to trust someone with them but Meghan exceeded my expectations.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs, from Mini Alaskan Eskimos to German Shepherds. I grew up around Golden Retrievers. I also have a lot of experience with cats. My other role is as a delivery driver, which allows me to have a flexible availability to care for your animals. I do what it takes to be fully committed to my agreements and responsibilities. I am adaptable and happy to follow the routine your pet is used to. I am a quick learner who aims to keep your pet(s) as happy and comfortable as possible. I have dog walking experience and can do drop ins or overnights.

About: I have been an animal lover since a young age, and have been caring for dogs since 2011. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and all ages in between. I have experience in training my own dogs and in practicing commands as asked when puppy-sitting. I've even trained my cat to give high-fives! I also have experience in administering medication, both oral meds as well as eyedrops. Our 14 year old labradoodle gets eyedrops twice daily, which I administer. I bond easily with animals and love dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I love getting to know animals, and have a knack for bonding with anxious, shy animals. I am also okay with brushing and bathing, etc., as asked if needed. I am typically available all day on the weekends and most Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am in grad school for the next two years in Forest Grove and classes occur around 9am-4pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I may have time for quick home visits for potty breaks during lunch on these days, if needed. I am happy to spend quiet time with pets who are more mellow, or to spend time playing or walking with energetic, younger dogs if that suits them best. I typically observe the dog's behavior and notes from the owner when deciding what to do- are they looking tired and calm? Are they a bit riled up and could use a playtime or a walk? I will follow any instructions left by the owners, as well. If there is anything specific or special you'd like me to do for your pets, just let me know!

“Erin was so helpful and exactly what my cat, Jared needed for a pet sitter! Erin’s attention to my pet’s needs and love for animals really shows! 100% will book Erin again, and I recommend Erin to anyone needing a pet sitter!……unless it conflicts with my bookings, ha ha. 😺”

“Sarah is amazing with my two dogs, she is very reliable and prompt as a sitter with Rover. This was my first experience using Rover and it was a huge success. My four legged fur babies absolutely loved the e time she spent with them.”

About: I’m a college student home for the summer who genuinely loves being around animals and making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very responsible, dependable, and patient, and I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving lots of attention, and helping pets feel less anxious while their families are gone. I also have experience caring for both energetic younger dogs and older pets who may need a calmer environment and extra patience. I’m very attentive and will treat your pets the way I would want someone to treat my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals, and I always want both pets and owners to feel comfortable. I’m home from college for the summer, so pet care fits very naturally into my routine and gives me a flexible schedule.

I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and needs.

In a client’s home, I’m respectful of routines and instructions and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, food, water, and care. I pay close attention to behavior and safety during walks, feedings, and visits, and I understand how important trust and communication are when someone else is caring for your pet.

About: I have over 4 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant, where I've cared for pets of all breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. My background has given me strong animal handling skills, experience administering medications, and the ability to recognize signs of stress or illness. As a nursing student, I'm dependable, attentive, and detail-oriented. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I strive to provide safe, loving, and personalized care while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a veterinary assistant, caring for animals is already a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets.

About: Being raised on a small farm, there have always been cats & dogs around to share in the ups & downs of life. I love leaning into each individual's personality and working with positive reenforcement to catch the animals doing good behavior! I have experience training/working with dogs of all ages. Sometimes our furry friends need extra care. I am experienced in oral medicine administration, wound care, ear & eye treatments (if need be)! I am available for pet care on a daily basis. I care for my cats & dog daily. If ever I need backup support, I have a network of folks willing to lend a hand. When pet sitting, I follow the instructions given by the owner regarding when to feed, how much food, how often they need to go outside. Beyond that, I typically tidy up the space every evening, sweeping/vacuuming, refreshing waters, etc. I try to develop a routine so that the animals know what to expect and can relax into a sense of order. I generally find ways that each animal likes to play and find games that are fun and rewarding.
