Pet Sitting Dexter

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and even reptiles. I am currently training to become a dog groomer and I’m taking classes to get my vet tech certification. I have the experience and knowledge necessary to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable and happy with me. I am currently working part time so I have the availability to care for your animals without anything impeding my ability to keep a close eye on them. My house is a large space with a very large fenced in back yard. I have two dogs that are easy to get along with. I have animal gates I can secure if you’d prefer your pets to be separated from my two small pups. I have 3 bedrooms so I can even dedicate a room to just your animal so they have a private and comfortable space.

“Kelsie is a truly kind and intuitive cat caregiver. My senior cranky lady usually hides from strangers at first, but she came right up to Kelsie and they were instant friends. Kelsie is reliable and a joy to work with. She made my old lady very happy while I was away.”

“Mia was so good to TJ, lots of attention, handled new feeding instructions and his potty accidents well! He was relaxed and happy when I returned - rare for him.”

“My cat immediately connected with Justine. I was pleased to see they continued to interact with each other and my cat didn’t hide during the visits. Wonderful peace of mind to have Justine care for my cat and it went so well!”

About: Animals have been a true passion of mine for my entire life. I have been in the Animal Care Industry for close to a decade now and have been a licensed Pet Stylist since 2015. Additionally, I had the luxury of growing up on a family farm, which provided me the opportunity to learn about the proper care & handling of a wide variety of different animal species. My soul dog passed away 5/21/25, so caring for your fur babies brings me lots of happiness and comfort. I love being able to care for and dote on them like I did for my boy 🧡 I am available every day of the week, including all holidays. Drop in visits I am available between the hours of 8 am and 10 pm. I have certifications through Fear Free, A.K.C. SAFE & Pet CPR/First-Aid. I have experience handling & caring for pets that might need a lil' extra TLC due to their medical issues, fear/anxiety and reactivity.

About: I was raised in a ranch surrounded by animals, from dogs, to cows,chickens, cats,goats, you name it. I love it, now I have two dogs of my own and its really a great experience. I have experience with indoor and outdoor pets. I am very responsible, respectful and I will treat your pet as if it is my own. I was raised in a ranch surrounded by animals, from dogs, to cows,chickens, cats,goats, you name it. I love it, now I have two dogs of my own and its really a great experience. I have experience with indoor and outdoor pets. I am very responsible, respectful and I will treat your pet as if it is my own. I work a full time job but I am off on Fridays and Saturdays. I am also available any other day after 2:30pm. Since I do have two dogs right now, I cannot pet sit at my own place. But I know all about the parks and trails within Eugene and Springfield, OR.

About: I have trained my own dog to be a good citizen canine as well as a service animal. So I have experience teaching dogs to sit, stay, leave it lay down, as well as other commands. And hope to be able to use this training to help with your dog or puppy. Ever since I was young I've had a real affinity for animals and they're really drawn to my sweet and caring nature. I can be a bit shy at first but you won't regret giving me a chance to help your pets out. Right now my schedule's pretty open any day of the week as long as I can get to address have a driver license,I look forward to getting to know more dogs and spend time playing with them. I'm not currently working so I have as much time in the world to spend with your dog and to make sure it gets its daily exercise and other basic needs. I have unfenced yard , will always take precautions and have leash on a dog when taking it for potty breaks I do have a dog of my own he is a service dog for a living but I can always kennel his to keep your dog safe or put him in my bedroom.

About: I’ve owned pets of all kinds my whole life. I’ve been trusted with taking care of my family and friends’ pets since I was twelve. One of my cats is older than me and has been with me my entire life, so I know very well how to take care of elderly and disabled animals, especially cats. I’ve also taken care of multiple very energetic dogs and I know how to handle their behavior. I’m very open to long play sessions or walks, but if a calm presence is what your pet needs, I am very good at providing that as well. I’m very adaptable. Whatever your pet needs, I am more than willing to do my best to give it. I’m a college student who is busy every afternoon but most mornings and almost every evening and night I am fully available for your pet. I’m completely free on the weekends as well. Understanding the signals pets use to communicate is one of the most important things to me. I value your pet’s safety and to me it is very important to know what they’re trying to say in times of crisis. I also am conscious of things in homes that may be harmful to pets, such as certain herbs, scents, or foods, and I go out of my way to ensure that pets do not make contact with anything that could be dangerous to them. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I want them to be met and for your animal to feel safe and comfortable with me and the environment.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I have one of my own. I have trained and raised a couple puppies and housesit and cared for many dogs. I also have veterinary care experience. My schedule is currently very open and I am looking to add caring for animals more into my life as it is something I really genuinely enjoy so I’m available for last minute or prepared ahead of time plans I have a fenced in backyard, with access to a doggie door. I have a miniature dachshund, and a domestic shorthaired cat. My animals rule the roost and are cared for exceptionally well. With access to food and water and a cool house with comfortable beds.

“Hannah clearly has a heart for animals! I had her come over for a "meet and greet" with my pup Luna who can be very timid around new people, but Luna clearly thinks Hannah is okay! We look forward to doing some doggie day care with Hannah in the future :)”

About: Living vicariously through pet sitting so that I don't have 20 dogs of my own. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart! With three dogs of my own, I understand that every pup has their own personality, quirks, and needs. Whether your dog is a couch potato, an adventure buddy, or a high-energy ball of chaos, I'm here for it! I'll treat your furry family member like one of my own, with plenty of love, patience, playtime, and maybe a little extra spoiling! 🐾❤️ I'm a full time real estate agent looking to fill my downtime with what I love the most, animals! Flexible to fit your pets needs. I have a fully fenced back yard and a home with great division if needed. We have one dog (male fixed black lab) full time and 3 total part time. Wether your pet is best at their own home or love exploring new places, I can accommodate.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was little. I have so much love to give to animals, they completely fill my heart and make me happy. I have experience with older animals as well as younger. I work all days of the week. Need a vacation? Call me up and I am more than willing to come and take care of some animals. It would be the highlight of my week! I have 3 indoor dogs who go outside hourly and get fed twice a day. My dogs are friendly but must have an introduction with other dogs.

About: I've owned, loved, and been around animals my whole life - dogs, cats, and miscellaneous farm animals. Growing up in the country and having animal based chores from a young age helped me develop a love for animals, tolerance and patience, and the capability to care for a variety of animals in a variety of settings and environments. Closely raised alongside a veterinarian uncle taught me the value and importance of animals in our lives (and occasionally even provide assistance to a him in action). I'm also quite flexible with many things. While in my care, I can walk/exercise (or be absolutely lazy with your animal). Depending on what you request, as long as it's within reason, I am open to catering to your wishes and will do what you ask of me to keep you and your pet happy! :) ie. although I marked "allowed on beds/furniture", I understand this is not for everyone. I personally love having animals near me but also understand the importance of not allowing in my home, what is not allowed in your home. Also, I have access to my family's property out in the country where I can take your dog on hikes away from the public, run freely in large fields that are fenced in at the property line, and explore the great outdoors with them for an even more special experience while you're away! Experience (in general): listed 28 years as I've closely helped family members since ~at least~ 8 yrs of age. My sitting history mostly includes requests to house/dog sit for friends and family members over the years (both in their home or in mine). The "official" dog sitting experience is less, as this is my first time creating a professional sitting profile and I am excited to start work with people outside of my circle! :) I only marked the days I am off work completely as my available dates. These are the days in which I can provide the best/full attention care. I can provide care on work days, as long as you are okay with me working around my work schedule (ie. early mornings/evenings or nights). Otherwise... Consistently, I'm off every Fri, Sat, and Sunday. Weekdays: never hurts to check! I have many weekdays off, but they vary and depend on my office's hours. I know my days off in advance and can plan accordingly. My office closes for 7-19 days at a time 4x/year (Feb, May/June, Sept, Dec). Plus, any major holidays, we are closed and I may be available. I will take necessary precautions to keep your animal safe and cared for. I have a yard with no fence and would keep them on a leash while taking them out or on walks. If while in the country on family property, as long as we both feel comfortable with it and your dog's behavior, leash wearing is whatever you prefer. I will of course put them back on if I feel the need to. Although I'm easy going, I'm also a reliable and responsible person with common sense and enough experience with my own animals to properly care for your pet. I will always do what's needed in any situation to protect your pet and keep them safe. After knowing an animal longer and understanding their behavior/tendencies, sure, I can ease up some - but will always take more precautions at first while I am still getting to know them. And again, in any case, it's whatever you are comfortable with and would like. Details can be discussed and figured out along the way. For example, if your animal gets uncomfortable in unknown places - I am more than happy to come to you and care for them in your home! If they need this medicine at this time, you've got it! If they do better when you take them for a 45 min walk and then snuggle them for an hour, sure! If you need them to eat these specific things, at these specific times, and anything else you may need - just chat it out. I'm sure we can work the details out - and if not, I'll just say no and ask that you find another sitter who may suit you and your needs better. We'll figure it out.

About: I have experience with all shapes and sizes, from playful pups to seniors with higher needs. I’ll always make sure every dog receives all the puppy love they deserve, whether that’s trail-running, daily walks, or a little extra playtime! With me being a student at OSU-Cascades, I have more free time than most, ensuring your pup gets all the care while you’re away 😊 Im a full-time Environmental Science student at OSU-Cascades with plenty of gaps to fill my schedule. This means flexible work and lots of available hours! I’m free pretty much any time, any day :) While my current living space is not suited for dogs, I will always acknowledge that your house is YOUR space and will do my absolute best to keep it better than how I found it. I have dog-sat throughout many places in Central Oregon and should you need a reference, I got you covered. I’m here for the pup and the pup only 😊

About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Shealea and I have over two years combined experience working with dogs. I was a handler as well as a team leader at one of Eugene's premier dog boarding facilities where I gained a plethora of knowledge and experience in all things canine related! My approach is to treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. "Dog's are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." I am a SAHM so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs! Please message me if you have any pet care needs outside of my scheduled availability. :) I treat each pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I am attentive, knowledgeable and understand the importance having a solid line of communication with pet parents.

About: Growing up I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home and I’ve loved every each one of them. I currently have 2 cats and 3 other in the house from my roommates. my youngest is a 5 month old orange tabby named boots and my oldest is a 8 year old calico named Nora. I’ve taken care of rotties, huge huskies, German shepherds, border collies, chihuahuas along with many many cats! I’m ready to give your pets the love and care that they need! ❤️ I am currently working a full time job, but I work 12 hour shifts 3 days a week so I have 4 days available a week to tend to your pets! I have very playful kittens in home and a huge area around me to take your dogs on plenty of walks! I also have multi dog parks around my apartment!

“Jaryd is the best pet sitter we have ever had. He’s compassionate and follows directions very well. We highly recommend him.”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and believe every pet deserves the same care, attention, and affection they get at home. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime to older pets who need a gentler touch. I’m active and love going on walks, but I also know how important cuddles, patience, and routines are for pets to feel secure. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping your furry friend company, I treat every pet as if they were my own I am a stay at home mom, so I can easily be with your pets all day! I am very active, so I love to take walks and do lots of potty breaks. We have a fenced yard so they can play outside. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-friendly, and free from hazards. I keep a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, and playtime so pets feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, to keep things as familiar as possible for their pet. I also send regular photo and text updates so pet parents have peace of mind knowing their furry loved one is happy and safe.

About: I have years of experience volunteering with all types of dogs and cats. I started volunteering at a pit bull rescue center when I was 10. I have also volunteered at the Elk Grove animal shelter with cats, dogs, and bunnies. I have always loved animals and love caring for friends and family’s pets whenever they need me. I have a lot of availability on weekends. I am a full time student at the university of Oregon and also dedicate time to a couple nonprofit organizations. So during the week I am mostly free during evening/night. I am open to caring for animals in any way I can. Whether that be feeding, brushing, play time, enrichment, walks, etc. I will care for your pets as you care for them and ensure that they get as much love and care as possible.
