About: I have had a love for all animals since I was a little girl. I have either had a pet to care for or have been watching friends pets whenever the opportunity arises. I am a stay at home mom. I am available to check in on animals throughout the day or even take them for a walk! I like to make sure your pet is happy and taken care of whenever you are away. I want to make sure they have what they need.

“I last minute needed a new dog walker for my two pups, and Jordan was able to jump right in and become that awesome, trusted, & reliable person we needed. He is great with my two high energy dogs, and we appreciate all his care, help, & time.”

About: I love pets. I’ve always had dogs of my own. I would give your pet the quality and attention that it deserves in your absence. I will provide walks and interactions to make sure your pet is okay while you are away. You can feel confident that your pet will be properly cared for and adored. There will not be places in my home where your pet will not be allowed to roam. I have a fully fenced front and backyard that will allow your pet the space it needs to roam safely. I am reliable and attentive to your requests and recommendations. Please let me know anytime that you need quality care for your pet. I am around the house most days. I take my dogs on daily adventures and have consistent interactions. I make sure that they have access to both the front yard and the house. I have a fenced yard that will properly keep your pet contained. My pets are able to roam free upstairs but not allowed to go downstairs in bedrooms.

About: I’ve owned pets for all my life and believe that all animals deserve to be treated with kindness and love. I’ve helped walk and dog sit for people for four years now. I’ve stayed with puppies, senior dogs (barely can walk and use the bathroom), and dogs filled with anxiety. I hope to make your pet’s time away from you as peaceful and enjoyable as possible. I’m home from college this summer so my schedule is very open to staying with a pet for however long they need. Staying over night or just a few hours to keep them entertained, loved, and cared for all work perfectly with my schedule. I love to spend personal time with my clients’ pets, making sure their nervous systems are regulated and cared for. I don’t just care for their physical health but also mental. I can stay at my client’s house and take pets on daily walks, making sure they get plenty of of exercise.

“My pups immediately took to Dennis & Judy. They look forward to their walks with them. My Perry is older, 16, and I feel confident with Dennis & Judy walking him along with Zoey is younger but can be skittish.”

About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have several years of hands-on pet care experience. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets while they're away, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I am currently working part time remotely, therefore I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and extended pet sitting depending on your needs. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicative, and attentive so you can feel confident your pets are receiving excellent care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having grown up with both dogs and cats, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing supervision, and creating a calm environment. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and house rules. Whether caring for pets in your home or during walks and visits, I treat every animal as if they were my own and ensure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care.

“I couldn’t be happier with the dog walking service! My dog was happy, relaxed, and well-exercised. What really made my day were the adorable pictures that were sent during the walk — it was so reassuring to see my pup having such a great time! Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again.”

About: I am bilingual in English and Spanish! I am very active and available. I will care for your animal with all my love and attention. I have 4 pets of my own, so I understand the seriousness of pet needs. Also have experience giving medication to dogs. I am a chiropractic assistant and work Monday-Thursday. I am available to sit or walk animals every evening and on weekends. I am very flexible! With four cats, I pride on keeping a clean and sanitary home! They deserve the best, and so do your babies. I am willing to stay at your place and keep things exactly the way you want them!

About: I enjoy dogs and will care for them like family. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs in my life since I was a kid. I enjoy playing with them, watching and walking your dogs. My schedule is flexible and I am able to work around your needs for pet care in your home. Look forward to hearing from you. I have a fenced yard at home and always walk dogs on leashes. I can use your pet stroller if you would like me to take them on walks. I double check for safety in and out of doors and make sure there is nothing that they can get into before I leave your home.

“This guy is kickass. He really cares about your pet and he went out of his way to be respectful of any requests I had for my pup. He even showed up the night to introduce himself and get to know my pup named max. Max loves him and I probably will use his services in the future”

About: I have over 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My background includes lifelong pet ownership, kennel work, veterinary shadowing, and professional pet sitting through Rover. I am comfortable caring for energetic puppies, senior pets, dogs requiring medications (including oral and injectable medications), and pets with special routines or needs. My goal is to provide a calm, structured home where every pet feels safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog is different—some love to play, while others simply want a quiet place to relax. I tailor each stay to your pet's personality, energy level, and routine whenever possible. Safety is one of my highest priorities. I carefully supervise introductions, monitor body language and stress signals, and use separate spaces, baby gates, and crates (when appropriate or requested) to ensure every pet has a positive experience. I believe thoughtful planning and honest communication create the best boarding experience for both pets and their owners. My husband Andrew and I work together to provide attentive care, which means there are two experienced adults available for walks, playtime, supervised introductions, potty breaks, medication administration, and lots of affection. I don't believe every dog is the right fit for every environment—and that's okay. My goal is to ensure every booking is the right fit so every pet can have the safest, happiest, and least stressful experience possible. Whether your pet is staying overnight, spending the day while you're exploring Southern Oregon, or simply needs a safe place to relax while you're out to dinner or attending an event, I strive to treat every guest like a member of our own family. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to maintain it while they're in my care. Whether your pet enjoys active play, leisurely walks, or simply lounging nearby, I tailor each day to their individual personality and energy level. I currently work part-time outside the home, but my schedule is intentionally arranged around pet care. Throughout the day, your pet will receive regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, enrichment, exercise, plenty of affection, and opportunities to rest. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is doing well. Your pet's safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I provide care in a calm, home environment with a fully fenced backyard, baby gates for flexible separation when needed, and thoughtful introductions between dogs. I believe every pet deserves an environment that matches their personality. Some dogs enjoy having a playmate, while others are happiest relaxing on their own—and that's perfectly okay. Our resident pets include: • Benny, our friendly German Shepherd/Border Collie mix, who enjoys meeting new dogs but understands that not every guest wants to play. • Cricket, our tiny 6-pound Chihuahua mix, who generally prefers to quietly observe from a distance. Every once in a while he'll decide another dog is his new best friend—and if that happens, they've definitely won the lottery! Because every pet is different, I supervise interactions closely and adjust the environment to help everyone feel comfortable. My goal is never to force interactions, but to create a positive, low-stress experience for every guest. For first-time boarding and daycare guests—particularly larger dogs or adolescent puppies—I may recommend a Meet & Greet beforehand to ensure my home is the best fit for everyone.

About: With over three decades of personal dog ownership and a lifetime of nurturing experience, I bring a uniquely patient, structured, and loving approach to pet care. As a school teacher of 26 years and a dedicated Guide Dogs for the Blind puppy raiser, I excel at clear communication, positive reinforcement, and managing routines. Whether your pet needs an energetic running partner for the trails or a calm, attentive companion, my background as a mom and outdoor enthusiast ensures they will receive the highest standard of safety, enrichment, and care. I am working from home during summer break and enjoy being outdoors with animals. I can work with animals all days of the week and love helping pet owners feel confident in the care choices. I have a fenced yard with two friendly Labrador Retrievers. They are both neutered males. One is 12 years old and the other is 4 years old. I am able to care for pets on my home or I can come to your home if that is better for your pet.

About: I have 2 years of pet care experience providing dependable, compassionate care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. I work Monday through Thursday, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pet before, after and between work. On my days off, I have even more time to provide walks, playtime, and personalized attention, so your pet will always receive the love and care they deserve. Pets are welcome to freely roam throughout my home in a safe, comfortable environment. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in their crate, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel secure, loved, and at home during their stay.

About: Wide range of experiences. Grew up on a farm in Germany feeding cows, always have owned pets from cats, dogs, lizards, fish, rats etc. I’ve worked at dog training and boarding facilities called Sweet Doggies and CALIK9 in Sunnyvale, California for three+ years. At those facilities I cared/trained for up to 50+ dogs in an free range area. I’m usually the go to friend when people need their pets to be babysat because they’re going out of town, usually it’s older cats and dogs that need special care, health needs and attention. I love all animals in general and I’d care for your pet as if they were my own and my own are very very loved. I typically work Thursdays-Saturdays from 6p-3am. I also work at music festivals and will leave weeks at a time but as long I’m in town I’ll make it work! I currently do not take pets to my home since I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own in an apartment. Any additional needs a client needs for their pets, I will be sure to take precautions!

About: I have have multiple years of caring for people's pets. I was a professional housekeeper with my own business for over 20 years and also cared for their animals when they were away. I have been a long time pet owner myself and recently my fur babies passed away. I am looking to earn a little extra income as a senior while enjoying the company of animals. I am a senior and I am retired. Recently my fur babies passed away and I am looking to supplement my income while caring for people's pets. I really miss having animals in my home. I live in a senior mobile home park and I have a fenced in yard. I make sure that animals are safe, fed watered, walked and get plenty of potty breaks. They will get lots of love. I keep the yard clear of poop so that their environment is healthy for them.

“Adrienne did a wonderful job walking my dog for two weeks. She was very communicative and she put my older dog's needs first. You can definitely tell that she is a dog lover! I would certainly recommend Adrienne to anyone else needing help with walks.”

“We just met Anika. My dog is super shy with people when she first meets them, but not Anika. She definitely passed the vibe test for my dog Stella. I felt 100% comfortable having Anika come into my home and walk my dog. It is such a stress reliever knowing I can trust someone to help me care for Stella on a long work day. I definitely noticed on the days Anika walked Stella, Stella was way more chill when I got home from work . I appreciated Anika’s communication and her love for working with dogs is evident. She is not someone doing a side gig as a dog walker. She has years of experience and knowledge working with pets. I’m grateful we found her.”

About: I have been house sitting for coworkers and family since I was 15 years old, and I adore it! I love all types of pets, and have taken care of both cats and dogs. I also raised a 10 week old puppy who is 5 years old now, and he’s very well behaved with no bad behaviors. I am a full time university student, but when spending time taking care of someone’s pet, I do take care to disclose my class schedule. I would do best for pets that are okay being alone for 5-7 hours at a time, as I have some back-to-back classes that I can’t miss. I am very passionate about animals and I love spending quality time with dogs and cats, so when I am with the pets I will be able to give them undivided attention. When in a clients home, I take great care in making sure that the pet stays safe and in no trouble. I make sure that any outside access is monitored and/or closed off to being able to escape or get into danger. I also stay mindful about not leaving things out for a potential animal to get into, and when I am home with your furry friend, I do everything I can to keep my eyes on them!
