1. Karina S.
“Our Ivy cat was given so much love and attention while we were away for 4 days. I’m so glad we found Karina and loved the many pictures and updates she provided us. We are definitely booking again in the future.”
2. Brandy D.
“Brandy did an absolutely top-notch job taking care of our two senior kitties!! She responded promptly and professionally to our last-minute request to pet-sit our cats while we went away for the holiday weekend. She sent us photos and detailed notes from each visit, and went above and beyond by doing little things like taking in our newspaper and rinsing out the cat food can. Most importantly, our cats (who can be a bit anti-social with strangers) responded to her immediately, and our hyperthyroid kitty let her give him his meds without any issues. We will absolutely go to Brandy first whenever we need a pet sitter!!”
3. Bev C.
“Bev was great with my two cats! She was very communicative with me and showed that she spent time with them through pictures! She also cleaned the litter box and everything looked great when I got back! Will def book again.”
4. Sonia C.
“Sonia did a great job making sure my cat had food and water at her usual times! My cat is very shy and likes to hide. Sonia made sure Phyllis was OK by taking pictures of Phyllis in her favorite spot. Gave me peace of mind that my cat was healthy and doing fine while I was away.”
5. hayden s.
“Hayden was fantastic! She was available to watch our 3 large rambunctious dogs on short notice. Hayden came by before our trip to make sure the dogs were comfortable with her, then took excellent care of them when we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which put us at ease using this service for the first time.”
6. Miles H.
“Miles was a great sitter for our pup and cat while we were out of town for a week. Regular photos for every check-in gave us some peace of mind, along with notes of highlights from his visit. Our animals are very attached to us and usually don't do well with strangers, but Miles made them feel right at home! We definitely plan to reach out to Miles again when we're in need of a sitter.”
7. Bernice P.
“Bernice was amazing for our needed day care visit! They quickly responded to our request, cared for our pup as we would, and sent adorable pictures! I would highly recommend their services.”

13. Jennifer W.
“Jenni is great when pet sitting my two cats, Ginger and Whiskey. She played with them, kept them company, and fed them all according to my suggestions. She really goes above and beyond every time to make sure all their needs are met. I am so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone!”
14. Sydnee P.
“Sydnee W. dog sat for me several times. She did a wonderful job. My dog, Ivy, loved her and they were best buds! I strongly recommend her to anyone who needs a dogsitter or dogwalker. Thank you. Larry D.”
15. lexie F.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little girl. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their animals while they were away. Not only that but this is my passion and joy. I love getting to take care of dog and getting to play with them. At the moment I am working part time. I work evenings shift. So I have time in the day to come play with your pets. I have a big fenced in yard so they can get lots of exercise in . There is one dog that lives here full time and two other dogs that occasionally visits. Mostly on the weekends. But all the dogs are dog friendly. They love making new friends. Plus they are all up to date with vaccines. If I have dog over they will never be left alone. I will always have an eye on them.
16. Erin P.
“Erin is the best! Even when my pups were naughty and snuck out of their crate and ate all the milk bones she stayed late with them and watch to make sure that they didn't have bloat and that their bowel movements are normal. She is fantastic and does such a great job with the dogs and the kitty when were out of town. We couldn't ask for a greater sitter”
17. Julia A.
About: I have experience volunteering at an animal shelter walking and socializing dogs of many different breeds, sizes, ad personalities. I also have personal and professional experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, farm animals, and other household pets as I’ve been pet sitting in the Eugene/Springfield area on and off for about 7 years! I have a chihuahua/corgi mix and a german shepherd/great pyrenees mix so I love dogs of all sizes. I also love caring for cats as I’m not able to have one right now and I enjoy getting to know their personalities 💕 My large dog is reactive so I have had to do a lot of work with him so far and am constantly learning about dog behavior and training methods! I am patient and understanding of animal’s cues and boundaries which allows your pet to feel more comfortable. My work is currently focusing on pet sitting so I can devote lots of time to caring for your babies! I also do some flexible work from home so I try to accommodate the pet’s schedule the best I can. I will meet with you first to get a feel for your animals and what your needs are and allow your pets to get to know me so they feel more comfortable when I come in the future. I will follow any specific schedules and expectations as needed but most importantly provide a loving and patient presence for your animals! I’m good at reading animal behavior and taking things at the animal’s pace.
18. Michelle & Anthony P.
About: I’ve worked at a vet clinic for 8 years, and before that worked in dog grooming. So I have some experience with dogs, pet sitting for various ones throughout the years, but I’ve had cats 15+ years, so I do really well with them too. I work full-time, 4-10 hour days a week, but my husband is always home. I live within 15 mins of my job, and run a lot of errands since I’m the manager, so I stop by a lot to have lunch, check in on my pets, etc. I’m completely off 3 days a week, and hours vary, but are pretty flexible. I have a big fenced backyard, and a very friendly and playful 2-year-old dog. We have 4 cats, but also a couple crates if needed to separate. No kids.
19. Julie G.
“Julie has taken such loving care of my 50 pound Golden-doodle, Phyllo. She takes her on walks and plays with her. Phyllo is always so excited to go to her house and is a bit depressed when she leaves and I know why. Julie (and her family) are kind, attentive, and love on my pup like she's their own. She treats my pup like family.”
20. Rebekah G.
“Rebekah is an awesome sitter that you can trust! We were travelling for 5 weeks and she took care of our cats as well as our house for 5 weeks. Our cats love Rebekah, also she took care all our mails, trash, everything! If you hesitate to leave your keys to someone you don’t know, Rebekah is the right person! Thanks for being such an amazing sitter, Rebekah!”
