About: I treat all animals like they are my own so you know I will care and show the same love you would! I have always loved dogs and am blessed to have my own. Also fostered kittens and puppies in critical condition for a lot of my life so I know how to take care of animals very well, I also love running and being outside which is a plus for you and your pup! I enjoy walking dogs and spending time with them.I also previously worked in an ER for animals so I know what to do in emergency's. I look forward to speaking with you and meeting your furbaby! I am a freelance artist so I am available whenever your fur baby needs attention. Whether it be for a quick check in, walk, or an overnight hangout! I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own! I make sure they feel safe, loved, and understood whether that means playtime, cuddles, a calm environment, or lots of exercise. I follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions exactly as given and will always communicate clearly with you along the way. I pay attention to your pet’s body language and behavior to make sure they're happy and comfortable at all times. Every animal is different, and I love learning what makes each one tick!

About: With 22+ years of hands-on animal care experience as both owner and foster parent, I've mastered every aspect of pet care—from puppy training and socialization to specialized senior dog care, medication administration, behavioral support, grooming, emergency response, and rehabilitation. I've cared for animals recovering from surgery, worked with anxious rescues, handled special dietary needs, and provided end-of-life comfort care. My extensive fostering background means I'm skilled at quickly building trust with animals of all temperaments and backgrounds, ensuring your pets receive professional-level care with the love and attention they deserve. As an online college student, I have the flexibility to work around your pets' schedules rather than forcing them to fit into mine. My classes are entirely virtual, which means I can be available for morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays whenever needed. This flexibility is perfect for pets who thrive on routine—I can maintain their regular feeding times, walk schedules, and play sessions without disruption. Whether you need daily visits, extended care, or last-minute assistance, my student schedule allows me to prioritize your pets' needs and provide consistent, reliable care that fits seamlessly into their established routines. I provide all pet care services exclusively in your pet's own home, ensuring they remain comfortable in their familiar environment with their favorite toys, beds, and routines intact. This eliminates the stress of being in an unfamiliar place with unknown animals. Your home becomes my temporary workspace—I follow your specific feeding schedules, walking routes, and house rules exactly as you've established them. I'm experienced in securing homes properly, following safety protocols, and maintaining your pet's established boundaries and behavioral expectations. During visits, I give your pets my undivided attention through feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, then ensure everything is clean and secure before leaving. I provide regular updates and photos so you can see how happy and relaxed your pets are staying in their own safe space.

About: I have over 10+ years of experience with animals after running a successful dog walking, training and sitting business in San Francisco for years, before moving to Oregon in 2020, as well as being a pet parent myself! Credentials: Pet CPR/FirstAid Certified, Fear-Free Certified Professional, Dog Training & Behavior Consulting Certified through both Dog Training Internship Academy SF & CATCH Canine Trainers Academy. I am passionate about using only positive reinforcement and science-backed training methods and continuously staying up to date with the latest information & research -- so much so that I have an entire apparel business dedicated to these methods. I work for myself and am a small business owner & graphic designer so I have the luxury of working from home full time and my work days can be quite flexible. I typically work Tues-Sat. I start my workday between 8-10am and can wrap up my day by 2-3pm with 1hr breaks between. On top of my extensive background with training and behavior I have a much more thorough understanding of animals and how they learn, how to read body language and read cues. I always check if they have food allergies so I can bring low-calorie treats for them with me to make our walks enjoyable or creating training/brain games for them to help burn off extra energy they have. I send daily updates with pictures.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and grew up with hunting dogs and know how to train a dog for scent training and perform tasks.

About: Hi, I’m Sidney, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s a walk, a snuggle, or a day full of play, I’m here to give your furry family member the love, attention, and comfort they deserve. With me, your pet is not just cared for—they’re truly cherished. I am a full time teacher, but I’m on summer break. I work part time at a restaurant, but have plenty of time available in the mornings and many evenings as well. I care for dogs in their own home, giving them comfort, love, and attention. From cuddles to fun walks, I treat every pup like family.

About: I have been a caregiver to people professionally and pets pretty much all my life including dogs, cats, horses, even hedgehogs. Caring for people and animals comes very naturally to me. I work part time and I am a college student, and with my work schedule I tend to have 1-2 hours between school ending and my shift so something like this would work well with my schedule. I think the most important part of caring for an animal especially in someone else’s home would be respecting the animal’s boundaries and reading their body language.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other small animals since I was 8 years old. Currently I have family and friends that rely on me to provide care (walking, bathing, feeding, hosting, house sitting, litter changing) for their animals when needed. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, chickens, and other small animals. I am currently a stay at home mom, as well as an occasional photographer and business partner so I make my own schedules, allowing me to care for others pets as required. In our home we have a 7 year old, male, Australian cattle dog that is crate trained for nights, but also allowed on furniture with us! We also have a 14 year old male tabby cat, 4 year old female tabby cat, and a 1 year old female siamese. We have a dog park nearby and the power line park for dog walking. We love our fur babies and treat them like the kids!

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets throughout my life. This has included cats and dogs mostly! I have preformed walks, feeding and making sure the pet has water and giving out plenty of love and pets! I have dog walked, and done drop in visits for one family in the last year which included 2 cats and one hedgehog! I would love to have a dog of my own but don’t have the time due to my job. I can help walk on weekends and week nights after 5pm! I make sure to spend time with and take great care with the animals. I love dogs and all other animals so much and know how important they are to people, so I extend that same love.

Jeffrey B.
“I have the utmost confidence in Jeffrey as a pet sitter. I've yet to see a dog that has not responded to his positive energy & confidence, even when first greeting them. I've watched him raise his own dog from a puppy. She is a loving, affectionate, obedient girl who absolutely adores him. He takes her to dog parks & socializes her regularly. She loves to play with new friends.”
