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. You can view my certificates on my Instagram @havocs_house

About: Their fur babies will be treated just like they’re part of my fur family. I will follow any special requests that we work out. Plus I worked with a dog rescue so I have access to tons of information if I need to receive new knowledge on something. I live in Oakridge so I also have access to local hiking trails and have a decent knowledge of local water areas that are safe and wonderful for pups of all ages and sizes to enjoy. Their fur child will have plenty of one on one attention from me, they will not feel left out or unloved. I will keep you in the know if your fur baby is behaving ill. I’ll even take plenty of pictures of them enjoying their time and share them with you. I am currently on temporary disability due to surgery. I just had so I’m unavailable at this time but once I have been released to do light stuff around the home, I will be able to take on some clients again. If there’s any safety concerns, we can discuss what they are and what we can do to address them. We are currently trying to save up to get our fence redone to ensure that there are no issues with your baby getting loose.

About: I am an animal lover and always have been. I grew up with both dogs and cats and love both equally. My schedule is extremely flexible and I don’t mind commuting to take care of your fur baby! I have a lot of compassion for animals and take extra care to give them both physical and emotional attention. I love being outdoors and will make sure that your pup is getting plenty of exercise. I am currently a student with a flexible schedule during the week. I am available in the mornings, late afternoons, and evenings for any service you may need. Weekends and Holidays available as well. When caring for your pets while you are away I will first and foremost make sure that they feel comfortable with me. I have excellent attention to detail so I will be able to follow any care instructions including special accommodations for your fur baby. I love spending time with animals, they will be getting plenty of attention to distract them from missing you!

“Shelby is so amazing I felt so safe leaving my cat in her care! She sent me so many photos and descriptions with each visit (which always made me smile). I’m super grateful for her ?? thank you so so much you went above and beyond”


About: Animals aren’t just pets, they’re family. With a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring calm, confidence, and genuine love to every visit. Whether your pup needs a high-energy hike or your shy cat needs quiet company, I adapt to their unique needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat your pets (and your home) with the same care I give my own. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch, your animals are in good hands! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule as a college student. I have a flexible routine and I’m looking to earn extra money doing something I love. It’s a win-win! I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment in my home, with plenty of play, routine, and attention. When caring for pets in others’ homes, I follow their routines closely, keep in touch with updates, and treat their space with respect. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first.

“Hannah was very communicative and attentive. We felt great knowing she was taking care of our cats and she was happy to bring in the mail and keep our plants watered while we were away. We'll be booking her again, for sure!”


About: I love all animals large and small . Hobby and helping others is what I want to do !!my kids are animal lovers too. We would love and enjoy tking care if others pets and getting to know other animals. I have grown up around animals from a very small age in the country. I would like my kids to have the same experience with animals as I have had and much much more. We are a very active family and love to go for hikes, jogs, swimming sessions and other places to visit and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. We would love to see any size and shape for animals makes for a challenge to experience every day and relax in the moment to see how others live.

About: I've always been in a household that has had at least one dog growing up in California to my travels here to Oregon 9 years ago where I fell in love with the state and made a home here. I have had goldens and labs, and have taken care of a wide variety of sizes and shapes of pups, from the smallest pup to the sweet yet slobbery Mastiff. I currently have one dog who is my boyfriend's service dog, she is a 4 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever that is the calmest dog until you get her football out! Then the play never stops. Since she cannot go to work with him anymore, she would not mind a buddy to play with. We constantly take her for walks and runs and swims. Very dog friendly house I have afternoons open and available and almost every weekend! I love getting out and walking dogs around the neighborhood or taking them to a park I have a fenced in yard for Cammie or any dog to run around, go outside to take care of their needs, or chase a bird or squirrel! The high school field is right down the block that we can go to any time

About: I have taken care of four-legged fur friends all of my life. From hamsters to Swiss Mountain dogs, and some non-furry and feathered friends as well. My daughter and I started in home pet sitting for friends about 5 years ago. We enjoy being able to help your fur babies stay at home and comfortable while you are away. We are familiar with keeping them to routines including feeding, walking, play and medication schedules. We have cared from puppies to elderly long-term life companions who have required oral medication administration. We love each and every one of them and their individual personalities and quirks. I currently work remote and can be there all or part of the day with your fur babies. I can perform drop in and walking services after 3:00 p.m. on weekdays with a more open schedule most weekends. I only offer services within the client's home. I like to meet and get a detailed list of schedules and pet needs. I like to have the opportunity to get to meet the pets beforehand and get a chance for us to know each other.

“Colette was really kind and thoughtful! She came to meet our pets beforehand and make sure she understood all the responsibilities. She was flexible l, communicative, and caring, will definitely book with her again!”


“Nicole was the first person we've had watch our dog, and wow did we pick the right person. Not only were there no issues with her checking in when scheduled, she went above and beyond to play with, take care of, and love on our dog. She is a genuine animal lover so if you want your pet not only well taken care of, but also loved while you're away, I can't recommend Nicole enough! Nicole also sent updates daily as requested along with lots of great photos and even a few videos! For my wife and I, these were wonderful and really put us at ease about the well-being of our dog while we were gone.”


About: I love animals and have had many rescues. Digs generally really like me. I'm loving and sensitive and also experienced. I can provide references. I like dogs of all sizes and temperament. I'm willing to go the extra mile. I'm also very clean and neat and wont leave a mess behind. I'll pick up after your dog! I've had labs, Great Danes, small dogs, mixed breed dogs, etc. I'm not afraid of any breed. About me: 37 year old single mom. Non smoker, drug free and new to the area. I've lived all over the world. I can run your pup to the vet, grab dog food, treats, etc for him or her or whatever you need. Just let me know! I am happy to help! No one will be assisting me while I care for your pets. I'm a freelancer who works from home, so I'm available to take care of your furry friends anytime you need me! I'm responsible, a non-smoker, drug-free, and I am always on time! I also have reliable transportation, and you can expect a lot of communication from me. We currently have three dogs at home (two small and one large). I'm home with them all the time. I bathe them, take them out for frequent potty breaks, play fetch with them, walk them, and feed them at specific times throughout the day. We also choose to measure our dog's food. We recently lost our cat, Marshmallow to old age, but when we had him, we also fed him at specific times, as well as gave him medication every 12 hours. It was important that he received his medication on time twice a day and we were never late with it. I understand the importance of taking good care of my animals and I promise to treat your animals like they are my own while you're away.

About: Hello, my name is Virginia, I go by Gin. I am a dog momma to a 5 year old Great Dane. She is pretty much my whole world. I volunteered at the Willamette Valley Humane Society for nearly 3 years walking dogs, reading to dogs, comforting, feeding and cleaning up after so many precious dogs. Volunteer work takes a toll emotionally as some of you might know. I love animals in general but I just have a very special place in my heart for dogs. I am available anytime for dog walks or drop in visits to feed and water. I also can provide some play time on site if you have a fenced yard. My dog is well behaved and knows most commands. She loves to snuggle and be close to her humans. I treat her very much like I would a human.

About: I worked at a doggy day care and boarding business for quite some time, so I’m accustomed to caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities every day! I also own a 110lb 11 year old lab and a 20lb small breed puppy, so I’m definitely used to diversity in dog care! My former occupations gave me several years of pet store experience, and prior to those I’ve always cared for the pets of friends and family as well as my own. :) I am typically available Monday- Friday, I do have another job so let me know details and I’ll let you know if I can accommodate! In those hours my focus is on your dog(s) and giving them the love and attention they deserve! I am all about flexibility when it comes to caring for your pets! My 2 friendly dogs can provide healthy socialization for your pets, which is extremely essential especially for puppies! This can be in your home/yard, on a walk, or at the dog park!

I plan to spend most of our day outside playing unless it's raining then of course potty breaks and drying, playing inside and cuddling on the couch.while I watch them I will brush them and for those shedders out there I will brush until I dont get any more hair hopefully minimizing in home shedding for you. because our pets are like family I don't mind giving text updates on how they are doing during the time that they are in my care. Please message me anytime I would love to watch your furry family member.I am also comfortable watching non house pets,I have horses and chickens and I've had goats,so if you have a farm that needs looking after,I'm your gale it's been a while since i've watched goats and cows so if they need milking I would need a refresher and if by some chance you have a less common pet like a alpaca or other I'm willing to be shown the ropes and will love to care for them,I really want to learn farm care,because having one of my own is something I've been interested in forever. December 18th I am going to become a stay at home mom. This means my son and I can watch your fur babies. any time day or night,with small amounts of time that I'm gone if during the school week to drop off and pick up my son. I won't be boarding just home sitting,I will treat your pet like my own safety and comfort for them along with lots of loves and attention.

About: I'm hardworker with a great work ethic and will treat your pets as if they were my own, I guarantee it. Animals tend to always like me, even if it's the first time I met them, and they can sense when someone is genuinely good. I want to keep your pets and you happy, without worry, when you have to leave them home. I will make sure that they are well taken care of and whatever you ask I'll do, within my means of course. I promise that you can count on me to provide excellent service whether it be walking, house sitting, boarding, drop ins, and whatever other services are needed. I have a B.S. degree from University of oregon and experience with in home care and memory care. I have also worked with the elephant department at Wildlife Safari, which I loved.

About: I have decades of pet care experience with visits, overnight care, nearly two decades of employed veterinary experience as well as tons of experience with my own pets of course. 😉 I currently have two very silly Australian Shepherds who compete in a variety of events and have earned many titles - many others in the past with even more . I'm well versed in medication administration in cats and dogs (pills, liquids, injectables) as well as wound care and rehabilitation. I have extensive experience and knowledge in nutrition, behavior and reproductive services. I may be available for flight nannying as well depending on days/times. I have extensive puppy development/training as well as senior care experience. Basically, if you need help with something pet related, I can probably help you! Just ask! 💜💚 Currently my time is divided between kiddo and pet activities so I am able to add in caring for other pets as needed. Please let me know what your needs are as I may be able to switch something around to accommodate your pet! 💜 Currently I am not doing care within my own home but I am cautious about disease transmission (ask me about my show protocols!) and safety is above and beyond my concern. For walks outside, dogs are exclusively leashed on no slip collars/leashes to prevent escapees and are setup prior to heading out the door. If transportation is needed, I exclusively utilize crash tested safety harnesses or crash tested kennels. Dogs or cats are never loose with transportation.

Kelsee G.
“Kelsee grew up with dogs in the house before heading off to the University of Oregon. She cared for all our dogs, 2 goldens and 3 labs during various years at the house. She was always willing to play with the dogs, let them sleep with her and of course, taking them out for a walk or some long hours of fetch. Kelsee has a big heart for her dogs and treats them as part of the family which of course they are. She never shyed away from taken care of them. Kelsee is a dog person, no doubt.”


Chantal H.
“Chantal has been our dog sitter for over a year. She is FANTASTIC! We can go away and not worry about our two dogs at all. Chantal’s gentle and kind to our senior dog. She puts Gracie’s bed right next to her when she’s working at the desk and takes breaks just so Gracie can sit on her lap! She plays and entertains our younger dog and watches her carefully so she doesn’t hurt our older dog being too rambunctious. My dogs eat 3 times a day, need to go out often - they are a lot of work in many ways and Chantal does it all. She is completely reliable, very responsible and takes care of our home and dogs with love and kindness.”
