House Sitting in Dorena

“Lisa was able to accommodate us on very short notice and took wonderful care of our pups. We could tell during the meet and greet that she truly loves dogs. She was able to be patient and gentle with Harmony who is nervous about getting her harness on. They were totally calm when we returned, we would recommended Lisa and use her services again!”

“We couldn’t ask for anyone better than Kaylee! She takes the absolute best care of our dog and cat while we are away that we never have an ounce of worry. Our animals love her, and she is extremely reliable and great with communication. We cannot recommend Kaylee enough, we wish we could give her 10 stars. Thank you!!”

“Cassandra house sat for our two dogs in our home while we took a weekend trip. She took great care of them and even stayed at home with them the whole weekend which was great for Black Jack’s separation anxiety. She sent photos and updates and followed all of our instructions to a T, including brushing the dog’s teeth. The house was also in good shape when we returned. We would happily use Cassandra’s services again!”

“Hannah took wonderful care of my chihuahua and cat! My chihuahua is very particular about people and he absolutely adores her! She is my go to sitter. Thank you for making my fur babies feel loved and at home while we were away. 😊”

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 believe the best thing about pet sitting is offering pets the same love and attention that their owners give them. I am easy going, very reliable and will follow all instructions for your pet’s care. I care for both domestic and farm animals. ❤️ I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. That makes it easier for drop in visits. When I stay over, I may need to leave for an errand but I will be at your home as expected. I respect your privacy and will care for your home like it is my own. I depend on repeat bookings so you can expect the best service!

About: I have a dog and three cats, I do school online and have a very open schedule. I grew up with animals and babysit frequently. I’ve watched rabbits to horses and everything in between. I am currently in school and have a very open schedule. I am able to come and stop by or watch overnight. I am very reliable and have my own transportation. I have fostered a wonderful environment for my pets at home. My dogs fully trained on and off leash. He has excellent recall and trust with me. My cats are all free range in the house and we have gates put in place so they can have their own space. While watching others pets I am very proactive and careful of where I bring them and watch them carefully.

“Linda is an amazing rover and goes above and beyond for pets and clients. You know your animals will be in good hands and her communication is superb. We enjoyed the updates and pictures. Highly recommend her for high energy pets!”

“Lily did a great job taking care of our dog, Watson and our kitty, Holmes. She kept us up to date each day and sent us photos of our sweet fur babies. We left a very detailed (i.e., long) list of our needy, routine-oriented pets' peculiarities and she followed it perfectly. Everything was exactly like we left it. Thanks, Lily for helping us out--we were nervous using Rover for the first time, but you made it so easy.”

About: Ive always been willing to take on family, friends, and neighbors pets. Whether that be just going over to let them out to go potty and play or staying over. I have also had them come to my home at times. I currently work Monday-Wednesdays so I have wednesday night-sunday to hang out with your fur babies. I’m generally home but I do leave the house often. Generally not long periods of time as I have my own fur babies. I have a fenced yard and we also do walks/go to parks. We have one dog, she is extremely sweet despite her size and she absolutely loves other dogs. She’s scared of cats so she avoids our cat and they just do their own thing. Our dog is crated when we are not home, so if needed your baby can be crated as well.

About: Safety is always my number one priority while pet sitting. I make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and cared for in a safe environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner guidelines to keep every pet healthy, comfortable, and protected at all times. Although I do work a part-time job, I try my best to fit pet sitting in my schedule because it’s what I love to do! Animals will always be well taken care of, I insure that your pets will be let out before I have to take off for work, making sure water is full and fresh. I will be back to love and care you’re pet in a timely manner! Although I do not offer boarding, I prefer watching animals in their owner’s home because I feel like it makes the animals more comfortable to be in a well-known environment. My biggest priority is making sure the owners have peace of mind while they are away and know that their animals are in a safe hands.

About: I currently work part time as a fulfillment handler for a dog training company. I've had pets all my life, and have a special bond with dogs. I enjoy all animals, and have a dog right now who's a 6 year old beagle mix. I've had a few dogs throughout my life, and had a rescued a pit bull named Sadie who just passed away recently after 8 amazing years, (6 when we got her ❤️). Looking forward to taking care of your kids! I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I have availability nightly, and would love to be a help for your pets! I always ensure your pets are safe, secure, and happy when taking care of them. I love being able to help pets relax even when their owners are away.

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 have grown up around dogs all my life, with that my family has also boarded some of our family friends pets. I have always had 2+ dogs in my house (different breeds as well) and am use to being around dogs as well. I am very consistent with walks/bathroom breaks and feeding time. Currently, at my house in Austin I have a rescue mutt and 2 giant English mastiffs (both over 200lbs each) but have also had very small dogs such as shitzus too. I am vegan and have so much love for animals!! Would love to help you out in any way and make more dog friends :) I am about to graduate in June and have open availability while I am here for the summer!! I do not plan on getting a job while I am here until August so can work around your schedule! I also have a car as well that I can have dogs in I love animals, especially dogs! I make sure that I listen to the owner and I follow directions/ advice very well. I also love to walk (or run if your dog is into that) and can do that multiple times a day!! I really want to make sure that it’s not only a peaceful time for you but also for your furry lover one too!

About: At this point in my life, I have cared for almost any domestic, exotic or farm animal that one can run into! Time spent working with snakes and spiders in a reptile shop, working on farms with cattle, goats and chickens, and caring for everyones furry companions like cats, dogs and rodents in homes has left me feeling well prepared to handle whatever critters come our way. My remaining pet is Sharkbait, a 9 year old heeler mix, who has been the everywhere and everything dog with me for the last 8+ years. She has met all of the above animals in her time and is the ultimate friend to all. As a retired service animal, she is kind and intuitive while responding calmly to reactive animals she meets. This makes her the perfect travel companion and buddy for all your babies and she will always be with me on sitting and walking jobs as she and I like to stay very active, walking anywhere from 2-6 miles daily together. Lets chat about your animals specific needs and background! Being active is a huge part of my day and I love making sure your animals are included in that! Walks to the park and jogs around the block are my favorite way to keep your pets focus while expending that pent up energy. For homebody pets I love a good puzzle or snuffle toy to keep their minds working in their safe space. Meet and greets together as a family are priority so that when you're out of town or at work, your pet(s) can trust Sharkbait and I are there to support them. Any candid tips and tricks around behaviors or routines are welcomed.

“Courtney was great with my puppy, Luna. Luna liked her the moment she met her and was sad to see her go. I am appreciative of the care she took of Luna and my home and grateful for her service.”

“I was so impressed by Sha's rapport with my animals. She agreed to a long stay with 2 unruly puppies, 2 older dogs and a cat afraid of new people. I felt bad about leaving her with my gang of critters and for so long, almost 12 hours, but she handled them well and I was able to fully enjoy the event I attended without worry. Sha clearly has extensive knowledge about different animals and displays that when she interacts with them. On my arrival home, my animals were fed properly and my house was in good order and Sha survived with a smile on her face. I absolutely recommend Sha to anyone, especially if they have numerous and diverse animals. Sha has established herself as my go to pet and house sitter. My thanks to Sha for providing care I can trust so I can get a break from my menagerie.”

“Jared did a fantastic job watching my dog Bowie for a week over Thanksgiving. He was super easy to communicate with and sent some amazing photos of their time together. I have a german shepherd chow chow mix who can take some time getting used to new people and from the first time Jared approached Bowie I felt comforted. Jared clearly knows how to be around dogs and Bowie liked him immediately, which is rare for my pup. I highly recommend him!”
