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

I feel confident leaving my cats in Jaime’s care. They are shy cats, but she takes time to engage (if they are willing), and Jaime gives me daily feedback regarding their activity or pictures of them hiding.

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.

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.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. Much more familiar with big working dogs with high drive like huskies, German shepherds, and cattle dogs. But I love taking care of them all! The current fluff ball in my house (housemates pup) is my first time regularly looking after a smaller dog but she’s kinda a big dog in a little body as she loves getting out for walks and trail runs just as my as my shepherd did. I’m currently only employed part time and work from home. So flexible hours and looking for extra reasons to get out of the house and active this summer. Unfortunately my home does not have a fenced in yard but there are walking trails nearby and a fenced in dog park close by. My pup is friendly with other dogs. I’m available to take care of your furball in your home if that is better for you.

About: I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I treat every dog with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own. I have experience caring for dogs of various ages and breeds, as well as multi-dog households in a variety of settings. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated and at ease. Pet care is my full-time focus, and my schedule is built around providing dependable, attentive care for the pets and families I work with. I prioritize consistency, communication, and making sure each pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I provide care exclusively within my clients’ homes, as I believe pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. Throughout all services, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal schedule while providing companionship, exercise, structure, and attentive care. I respect each client’s home as if it were my own and value cleanliness, security, and clear communication. I also provide regular updates and photos for added peace of mind and carefully follow all care requests.

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!

Michelle is the absolute best! My husband and I have rebooked her several times now, and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with our cats. Our cats are very particular, and Michelle is fantastic with them. She is clearly amazing with animals and knows how to make them comfortable, but she's also excellent at making sure that everything is done correctly for them. We've used her services during both short trips and also really long vacations and I always feel so reassured knowing our cats are in such excellent hands.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my hands-on experience raising and training my own dog from puppyhood. As the owner of a large Shepherd-Husky mix, I'm comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and positive reinforcement. I've also cared for and walked dogs for neighbors over the years, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, temperaments, and ages. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience, I tailor my care to each dog's individual needs to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time on weekends, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week to provide attentive care, walks, and companionship. As a dog parent, I'm already spending my days caring for an active, energetic pup and understand the importance of exercise, enrichment, and routine. I love getting outside for walks and exploring local trails and parks when the weather is nice, but I'm just as happy spending quality time indoors with plenty of cuddles. Whether your dog prefers adventure or a cozy movie day on the couch, I'm happy to match their energy and needs. I treat every dog like they're part of the family! In my home, your pup will have access to a large fenced yard in a safe neighborhood, plenty of playtime, and lots of love and attention. I share my home with my Shepherd-Husky mix, who loves making new friends and is always happy to have a buddy around. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, exploring all the exciting smells the outdoors has to offer, playing fetch, or curling up on the couch for a movie and some snuggles, I'm happy to match their vibe. I provide frequent potty breaks, supervised outdoor time, and can accommodate crate-trained dogs with an extra-large crate if needed. When caring for pets in your home, I believe you know your dog best. I'll follow your routines, preferences, and instructions closely to help keep your pup comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you're away. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for—so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.

We were in a pinch for some short notice drop in visits. Jessica was able to be available to pop in and give our pups and outside break and attention during a couple of days we had to be away. The dogs are so happy with her and we know we can count on her. Would definitely recommend!
