House Sitting In Father Blanchet Park

“Shaelyn provided excellent care to my two dogs while we were gone for a week. Even though they take a long time to warm up to new people, she was patient and won their trust. Would def book again.”

“Anthea is the best! If you can book her, do it! She takes good care of the animals and house. This time she had to give meds to my senior kitty which isn’t easy or fun. She provides updates and always makes me know the kitties are safe and cared for!”

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life, from dogs, cats and turtles all the way to horses, goats and chickens! I have had quite a few dogs throughout my life of different breeds and sizes. I regularly watch my family and friend’s pets, from a young spaniel puppy to a big senior Labrador who thinks he’s a puppy. I treat my senior friends with care and affection, wanting them to know nothing but happiness! I have also had a few puppies and understand the patience and care they require, especially when it comes to teaching them manners. I am currently unemployed so pet care will be my full time job! I am completely available everyday at all times to take care of and spend time with your furballs! I have two cats who run my home, they are leash trained and I regularly take them out to explore the backyard and play outside! They are very spoiled and I shower them with treats and toys when I can. When I watch others pets I want to know exactly how they want me to care for their pet, not wanting the animal to have to stray too far off their regular routine, especially when it comes to puppies.

“Abigail was GREAT with our pups. she was very communicative and sent pictures every day! Would absolutely have her sit for us again!”

“Annabelle took great care of our cats for a long weekend away. I appreciated daily texts with pics and updates. I would not hesitate to book again!”

Jo P.

“I was worried about leaving my cat for the first time, but Erin took great care of him! I received regular updates and pictures, and the apartment was spotless. Thank you so much ☺️”

Ottoline D.

“Janexis and Zach were wonderful with helping take care of my reactive and anxious pit mix, Minnie. They sent just the right amount of updates, and she looked so happy and at home with each picture! They kept me at ease the entire time. They were also flexible when I needed to extend their care, and left my place cleaner than I left for them! I will definitely use them to care for my pup in the future.”

“Lyla did an incredible job! She gave me updates and was flexible with my crazy schedule. Overall she brought a lot of peace while I was out of town. Just knowing that my dog was so well taken care of. Thank you Lyla!”

“My boyfriend and I left our doggies in Amy’s care for 2 weeks while visiting family. We knew right away that Amy would love our doggies like her own! Amy’s attention to detail and love for dogs is outstanding. I am so glad we found her to take care of our dogs on such short notice. In addition to being a nice person, Amy went out of her way to visit the dogs three times and get comfortable with them off leash so they could still play fetch while we were gone. She stayed in our apartment and left it probably even cleaner than we left it for her! Amy checked in with us daily and sent many pictures. The dogs were happy and also exhausted (from so much play!) when we got back. I’m so happy to have found her and will definitely look to book her again if we leave town and cannot take the doggies. Thank you Amy! I can’t recommend her enough.”

“Heidi was amazing with our two boys! We just moved to Portland from out of state and it is a scary thing to have to find someone that you trust with your fur babies, but Heidi was great from the start. She came over a day before her stay to meet the boys and for us to show her around. I felt at ease right away. We have her booked for two more stays and have no hesitation booking her again.”

About: I’ve been pet/housesitting for the majority of my life! Growing up I was relied on heavily by many. I was consistently approached by family, friends, and neighbors. There were quite a few people that had me as their go-to whenever they needed the help and I made a strong connection with. I always get excited when people ask me to petsit for them! On top of that, I’ve done a lot of volunteer work at animal shelters, including dog walking, cleaning, and playing. I’m currently a SPED Educational Assistant, 8am-3:30pm every weekday at a school in Portland. Anytime around that I am free and willing, but I understand if that is too large a gap in the days as far as house sitting goes. Otherwise, my weekends are entirely free, as well as my summer break! I will accommodate to whatever needs must be met for your pet! I want to make sure your fur baby is completely safe, comfortable and happy with me. Every animal is different and I love to make space for them and learn about what they like, dislike, need, as well as their quirks and personalities. Connection and trust is very important to me.

“Two words. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. ​"I had such a wonderful experience with Steele! One of the highlights was receiving daily photo updates—it was the best part of my day and really put my mind at ease. It was so clear from the pictures that my dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I returned home to very relaxed Finnegan and Lucy. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Steele again!"”

“We highly recommend Cora to watch your fuzzballs. She showed up on time, was communicative, sent updates, and the puppy was very happy when we got home. Thanks Cora!”

Matthew B.

“Michaela, unfortunately, had to deal with a broken nail on one of our dogs that happened the night before our trip, and she handled it extremely well - she kept us informed and took the right precautions to let it heal. Our house was spotless and pups were relaxed and clearly cared for upon our arrival. Michaela’s communication was honestly perfect for us. She sent a picture and a message, daily, and it was plenty (sometimes it can be a bit too much from sitters). We’d definitely let Michaela care for our pups and home again :)”

Austin L.

“Peter really helped us out in a pinch! We were going out of town and Momo wasn’t able to go to her usual daycare, so Peter stayed with her in our home. This was her first experience staying at home without us and she was definitely anxious and skittish the first day. But Peter was very sweet and patient with her. He took things slowly in order to get Momo comfortable with him. He sent lots of updates and pictures, which really put us at ease. He took her on daily walks, played with her, made sure she took her medication, and took such good care of her. Momo was in great hands and we can’t recommend Peter enough!”

Michelle K.

“Our pets are needy and we were worried but Olivine was so amazing that even our grumpy cat was in love with her!! Daily checking in was a delightful unexpected bonus! Holly and Zippy are already looking forward to their next stay-cation!!”

Sandra L.

“Madison stayed in my home for 2 nights. She was very good about sending a picture each day to show me my dog was ok and content. She seems very kind and trustworthy. My home was as clean as when I left and I felt my dog was well taken care of. I no doubt would want to have her pet sit again.”

San D.

“Sarah was great with our 2 crazy dogs!”

David K.

“We've used Pat many, many times. She's very much part of our family now and is always there for us when we need her. I cannot begin to recommend her enough. She recently helped us out over Christmas with our brand new and highly-energetic puppy, and we came home to a VERY happy doggo. Pat, you're a life saver and I don't know what we'd do without you.”

David S.

“Kristen was a thorough and prompt communicator and awesome with our critters! Our anxious dog and cat warmed up to her quickly and she was able to navigate a troublesome toilet issue while we were gone. She is great and we appreciated her house sitting!”
