Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!

About: I’ve had my fair share of petsitting and dog walking and I enjoyed it a lot. I also have had pets that I have cared for. I have a very flexible schedule since I am currently unemployed and not going to school. I am open most days and times as well as some weekends. I have had many pets and have loved and cared for them. Currently I have a dog that I care for. I hope to take care of your pets as well.

Tayler did a great job of watching our pets for the week. She was patient with our chihuahua mix that has a hard time trusting new people. She sent photos and checked in every day. Our pets were happy when we got home and our house was just as we left it. Would definitely recommend Tayler for pet sitting!

Melinda took excellent care of our pets and home. She was communicative, dependable, and very accommodating when our plans unexpectedly changed. She even gave our cat, Tiger, her inhaler without any issues—something we were a bit nervous about, but she handled it with ease. We felt completely confident leaving everything in her hands. We'd absolutely work with her again.

Kay is amazing! We were so grateful to find her to watch our dog on a two week vacation. We have a pretty reactive dog who takes a while to warm up to people but with Kay’s calm demeanor it didn’t take long for them to become fast friends. We recommend Kay to anyone who is in need of a sitter, trustworthy, reliable, has the experience & did I mention calm!? Our dog already misses her!! Thank you, thank you Kay!!

About: I've been surrounded by animals from before I was born. I grew up on a farm on Kauai, Hawaii. I worked as a veterinary assistant for nearly 10 years, volunteered with Guide Dogs for the Blind as a foster home, and I am always helping my friends and family with pet sitting and minor grooming(nail trims and baths). I'm starting this as a part-time job because it fits my schedule. I'm usually available for dog walking Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7:30am and 3:30pm. I am currently petless. Our beloved kitty(15 years old) passed last year and our family is not ready for another pet at the moment. I am happy to come to your house to take your dog for a walk in a neighborhood they are comfortable with, I often walk at Powell Butte, around my own neighborhood, and Salish ponds in Gresham. I'm happy to discuss other walks with you and anything else you'd like to know.

I couldn’t recommend Jamie more! Jamie watched our cats and dog while we traveled and it was one of the first times that my husband and I were able to actually relax and forget about our pets, rather than worry about them with a sitter! Jamie was communicative, punctual, and warm. He sent pictures and updates and I felt comfortable asking for any needs that popped up throughout our time away! Jamie will be the first person I contact for our future house sitting needs. Thank you so much Jamie- excited for you to see the babies again!

Melanie truly went above and beyond with a last-minute housesitting request, and then came through again with an extra drop-in visit when my flight home was delayed. Total lifesaver!! She took great care of my pets, including long walks with my dog and giving them lots of love and attention. I could tell they were happy and well cared for while I was away. Melanie is reliable, trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and her rates are extremely reasonable for the level of care she provides. I’m so grateful for all her help!

We had several meet-and-greets before choosing a dog sitter for a family trip, and Jamie immediately stood out. She was genuinely engaged with both family’s dogs from the start, and my dog took to her right away. Throughout our trip, Jamie was an excellent communicator—sharing regular updates and photos and thoughtfully kept each owner informed. While we were away, our dog unfortunately got into some medication (he’s a sneaky one). Without hesitation or direction, Jamie took complete charge of the situation. She contacted Pet Poison Control, called our vet, multiple emergency veterinary hospitals, and ultimately transported him to an emergency vet. Throughout the entire experience, she was calm, proactive, and incredibly communicative, ensuring we were fully informed every step of the way. After his discharge, she continued to go above and beyond—handling late-night potty breaks, closely monitoring his recovery, and providing detailed updates on his condition. On top of her exceptional care for the dogs, Jamie also took wonderful care of our home. She cleaned up, watered plants, washed her bedding, and even re-seasoned our cast iron pans—an unexpected and much-appreciated touch. We recommend Jamie highly. Her communication, attentiveness, and genuine care for both pets and our home made it clear she cared for both as if they were her own.
