About: I grew up raising my two dogs, Nike and Sparky, since they were babies. Nike is a dachshund and Sparky is a little chunky chihuahua. They are both 11 years old. I also babysit my friend’s frenchie, Appa, when they go out of town. I currently work full-time, and am free in the evenings. I am also free during the weekends. I am pretty active and love to go on hikes and runs. I am a super outdoorsy person but can also be a couch potato. Although I don’t have a yard, I live in a super pet friendly neighborhood. I also currently don’t have pets and live in a calm friendly neighborhood.
“Beyond kind to both me and my kitty! Always on time, very attentive, and sent great updates and photos! Took the time to interact and play with my cat and always responded quick! Highly recommend!”

About: I have always been a pet sitter, even from a young age. I am trustworthy, communicative and will treat your pet like my own. I know how scary it is to leave your pet alone with a new person and I'd love to be the person that treats your fur baby exactly how you prefer. I am a Cincinnati transplant who just moved to Portland. I am currently working part time, and I would love to spend my free time hanging out with your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I'm more than happy to work with you to help meet your needs! My pets have always meant the world to me. I enjoy nothing more than spending as much time with my cat as possible, your animal is no different. I have 15+ years of experience caring for folk's animals while they're away or at work. I will do my very best to keep you updated with pictures and videos of your pet, as well as communicate any questions/comments and concerns right away.

About: Lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family dogs. I enjoy training and playing — my pup knows 25 commands! Patient, loving care for every dog I look after. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, home visits, and overnight stays throughout the week. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find the best times for their dogs I provide a safe home for pets with a great park behind my house for walks. My own pup will be a playful companion for your dog!
“Sierra was responsive, friendly and arrived on time for each of 3 walks we booked. She took good care of our senior dog, sent pictures and was in good communication. Much appreciated!”

About: From the moment I first encountered a playful pup at the age of nine, my heart was forever captured by dogs' boundless joy and unwavering loyalty. Since then, my life has been enriched by countless furry companions, each leaving an indelible pawprint on my heart. As I embarked on my journey in pet care, I discovered the profound joy of nurturing these loving creatures and the immeasurable rewards of companionship and connection. I have plenty of time to help take care of animals. I am also flexible on weekends. Would be able to walk your pet midday and evenings. Mornings are tough time for my availability. I am experienced with setting up a routine schedule for a pet: morning bathroom break, midday, and evening. Lunch and dinner are typically done first thing in the morning and evening. A morning walk or evening walk also works. Routines are great for animals.

About: Nothing is more important than your furbaby’s safety and happiness! For dogs, I understand leash control, situational awareness, and the value of structured walks. I’m happy to follow your handling instructions so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I have completed clicker training along with foundation and advanced canine fitness courses. For cats, I know they need gentle, calm, and stress-free care. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and am familiar with cat behavior and body language. I provide reliable drop-in visits that prioritize your cat’s comfort and individual needs. My work as a pet photographer has given me a lot of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I read their body language well and know how to help them feel relaxed and at ease in new situations. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available on weekends from 8am–4pm, and weekdays work too with at least one day’s notice. Tell me what times you’re looking for, and I’ll accommodate as much as possible. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting services. Dogs get structured walks with time to sniff and light play. Cats receive interactive play, enrichment, and calm attention based on what they enjoy. I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s comfort level. Feeding is included as part of your pet’s regular routine, and my focus is on keeping pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free.
About: Hi, I’m Kaitlynn – your pet’s new best friend! I’ve grown up with animals and currently care for two of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs extra playtime, a shy rescue that needs patience, or a senior pet with special care needs — I meet them where they’re at, with love and consistency. I just moved to Oregon from Nevada and am currently settling in and building a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time and availability to focus on pet care. I’m not tied to a full-time job right now, so your pets will get lots of attention, walks, cuddles, and updates throughout the day. Whether you need someone reliable for daily drop-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here and fully present for your pets. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone — and I don’t take that lightly. Your pets — and your home — treated with care and respect. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I understand I’m being trusted with something deeply personal. I approach every visit with respect, cleanliness, and attention to detail. I follow your instructions closely, keep doors locked, double-check gates, and make sure your pets stick to their routine so they feel safe and secure.

About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).
“Great caregiver! Rachael is very comfortable around animals. Reliable and thoughtful. The thing I really appreciated was her keeping in touch. It really helped me relax.”

About: I don't like seeing pets alone when their owners are away, so I love keeping them company! I make them feel comfortable in my home. As an animal lover and a deaf person, I appreciate having pets around for companionship. My schedule is available in anytime. Just let me know if you want me watch your pets as longer I don’t mind. I love to help. I always respect your home’s rule with your pets. As long you let me know with your concerns. I love to check your pets to make sure they’re ok.

Honest, kind, and thoughtful sitters. We trust them with our sweet Tiki even when we’re beyond the range of cell phone reception. Very grateful for their consistent care and consideration. Their pet photography is excellent as well and we have a little note from them taped up on our fridge.

Sierra was awesome! My cats and two chinchillas were so happy and stress free once I got back from vacation. Sierra is attentive, detail-oriented and often will get ahead of any possible problems. She is absolutely wonderful to work with. You can trust that your animals will be not only be cared for but relaxed when you're worried most! :)

I’m really happy that I found Julie. We had an extended vacation, so I was a bit stressed leaving my cats for such a long time. Julie took a great care of them. She made sure to stop by and meet them before the reservation actually started, and when we had an unexpected issue with the lock while we were gone, she helped us resolve the issue and even came back to the house for the second time during the day. She went above and beyond not just taking care of the cats, but also bringing in our mail and watering the plants. I came back to a clean house and well taken care off cats! Overall, above and beyond! We’ll definitely be coming back to asking for Julie’s help with the girls!

Allison goes above and beyond while taking care of our kitties when we are away. They're always so content when we get back from a trip because they got to spend time with someone who enjoys them and plays with them. Allison sends photos and updates, which makes our time away go by without worry - or guilt. Highly recommend!!!

My partner, pets, and I adore Max! They were communicative, on time, and took special care of our cat, Chalcy, while we were away. Chalcy really enjoyed hanging out with Max, felt less anxious about being apart, and got extra treats. Plus, my place seemed cleaner than when I left. Thanks, Max!

This is the first time I have used Avery for the sitting of my two cats Ozzy and Luke. Avery came into my life at a time where I had Medical concerns that needed by full attention and to know that my boys were taken care of twice a day and with the utmost care meant everything to me. She even did little tasks around the house that kept my home running when I was not there to oversee it. In my mind she went above and beyond. You cannot go wrong with choosing Avery and she is very conscientious caring and responsible! I have ended up moving away and may not see much of her going forward but I think we will be staying close friends now and into the future! She's that kind of person! Thank you Avery!
I can’t say enough good things about Maria. From our initial meet and greet to the very end, Maria was reliable, communicative, and clearly passionate about dogs. Maria took the time to understand Willow’s routine, personality, and needs, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received detailed Rover Cards and lots of lovely pictures of Willow. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly kind with animals, I would absolutely recommend Maria without hesitation. We’ll definitely be booking again!
