“I KNOW I can trust Candace. She really responds to and respects any instructions or special needs and she is communicative and generally awesome.”


“The kitties had a great time with Haley. She provided us with excellent, detailed daily updates, photos, and kept an eye on some health issues we’ve been tracking. She made sure our lady got her medication twice daily and cleaned up and notified me of some vomit from our older boy with kidney disease. Haley came by for a meet and greet before our booking and we were very impressed by her; she’s very personable, professional, and we could tell she loved kitties and animals and would give them great care while we were gone. She was super flexible when I had to push our trip forward a week due to a personal health reason and I’m glad we made the decision to book with her !”


“Mackenzie did so well with our three kitties! She was attentive to their routine and put our minds at ease while we were away. She even went above and beyond to pick up a new litter scoop when ours broke right before we were supposed to leave. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated. We know that we can trust Mackenzie and that the kitties feel comfortable with her. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

“Jackiellen is wonderful! I have two senior cats (one with a medical condition needing meds 2x daily) and Jackiellen took great of them! My girls are stubborn and don’t take to new people well but Jackiellen got them to warm up to her almost immediately! The updates were wonderful and I cannot say enough good things - I truly appreciate Jackiellen’s great care!”


“Lindsay really went above and beyond for our cats and we could not be more grateful to have found her to care for them while we were away. She really pays attention to their needs, communicates well and gives great feedback with check-ins. We will definitely be using her again!”


About: I grew up with a black lab and now have a chocolate lab who is the love of my life! All of my friends have dogs and I frequently dog sit. I work remotely so I can really be available whenever necessary. Easy to do hourly and daily check ins or stay overnight, etc. Whatever needed. My black lab had lyme disease so we learned early on how to care of her ailments. Our tiny chocolate lab has dealt with random sicknesses and issues and I feel totally confident in caring for, giving medication, being aware of changes or needs, etc.

“Justine was great! She took care of our two fur babes for two days and didn’t miss a breakfast dinner and midday. Would 10/10 recommend to others.”


About: Trying to establish a customer base, so prices are cheap and we can lock them in going forward. Im a great dog dad and genuinely love animals https://www.rover.com/sit/brianc18618 I have two dogs. I have an 11 year old chocolate lab and a 3 year old yellow lab. I have had them since they were puppies and raised two incredible dogs. Were often at capisic park pond daily, the beach, or a variety of different trails. We don't go places that require a dog leash as my dogs are trained fully off leash, and that's what they are used to. I of course would walk your dog on a leash if preferred, especially until a relationship is established. They are the happiest friendliest dogs. Perfect for a third to join us. Great if your dog needs to socialize or learn to socialize or is shy and/or nervous. I'm kind and love dogs so much but we have expectations and rules to follow in order to have a good time. I'm a teacher here in Portland and am available after school at 3pm, and open on the weekends. I'm a single man, so I am available to house sit overnight. I treat pets with the upmost respect and care for them like humans. My dogs are equal in my home and have the best quality food and treats, exercise 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and sleep (take over) my bed nightly. I respect dogs well being and put that as my top priority. I talk to my dogs all the time, anticipate their needs, and am very loving, yet at the same time have rules and expectations for them to follow. I'm very good at explaining things to my dogs if they need correction with a firm voice and a loving approach.

About: I have grown up with animals and took on an active responsibility for them by age 10. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds and horses even the occasional snake and love them all equally. My dog experience if everything from a Chihuahua to a Great Pyrenees (though if you were to ask me my German Shepard’s always held a special place in me heart). Currently I have a rescue from the shelter and spend a lot of my time with her for training and building her confidence. I currently work and attend graduate school. I am available all day on weekends and after 5pm all week days except for Wednesdays as I will be attending classes. I always strive to meet the needs of the area I have experience with many diets and also enjoy taking my pups and any other pup in my care for long walks or for a good romp in the dog park to burn all their energy.

“Julia was great at caring for our pups. She did an hour long drop in and made sure they had some time outside and our pup was not in his kennel while my wife was working. Thank you for taking care of them and helping us out.”

“Brie is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to working with dogs. Currently owning a dog alongside her and having witnessed her interactions with her family pets, I can vouch that she is a wonderful owner and cares deeply about animals. She has experience with training working dogs, and I’ve seen her effectively utilize this knowledge when caring for my uncle’s dogs, whom are all trained with either bomb sniffing or drug sniffing, as he previously handled dogs for security and military/law enforcement purposes. She was able to work with them as efficiently as anyone i’ve seen besides him. She also has assisted neighbors in caring for their dogs on multiple occasions, and she has shown to be able to quickly build trust with dogs with her knowledge of animal behavior and natural affinity toward caring for animals. She is also able to organize her time well and has shown excitement for getting to interact with more pets, which is great because when she gets into something, she becomes very efficient in the area of interest.”
