Cat Sitting Jefferson

“This was our first time having Alyssa as our house sitter and it was for quite a long stay. I’ve had some challenging experiences in the past, but Alyssa made me feel very secure in her ability to take care of all the animals. She was communicative, reliable and overall just had great energy about her. We feel really fortunate to have found her and we hope to use her in the future! Thank again Alyssa, we really appreciate you!”

“Brandy is so kind and caring to all of my 3 fur babies at home. In person she is professional, amiable, courteous and is on time to her schedule. I would definitely book again.”

“Kelly did an amazing job caring for our wounded chicken, who required special care and handling. She went above and beyond and was as kind with our chicken as you would want her to be with your dogs and cats. We absolutely recommend her!”

About: I have been a huge animal-lover my whole life. I grew up raising dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, cows, chickens and horses. I decided to carry my passion for animals into my continued education, where I recently graduated with a Bachelors degree in Animal Science, giving me thorough knowledge of our companions’ health and wellness. Beyond this, I worked for an equine facility taking care of boarder horses and teaching kids lessons. Currently I work for a boarding kennel, being responsible for all-around dog care. Previously, I worked for a dementia care company caring for elderly clients, which represents my caring nature very well, as I enjoyed what I did! I am comfortable taking care of pets of all ages, shapes and sizes. I recently moved to Oregon from Northern Idaho and would love to find recurring clients that want some extra and well-deserved attention for their pets. I am currently work 4 days a week, but I am flexible to take care of pets around those hours. Unfortunately, the schedule shifts weekly, so if you have some flexibility on times, we will make it work! I can be very dependable on feeding and potty times and try to keep their regular schedule as consistent as possible. I will provide cuddle and playtime sessions as much as I can as well!

About: I have grown up with all different types of animals like dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies, etc. I am very much an animal lover and I treat all animals with love and respect! I have provided dog sitting services for over 10 years and have cared for dogs with all types of needs. I have experience in taking care of senior dogs, dogs with disabilities, dogs with high energy, and dogs of all sizes. I wouldn't say I have experience in professional training, but I have some experience in training my own dogs (and cat). I am currently a full-time nursing student with a part time job. My schedule is changing pretty frequently, but I am very organized and good at keeping my schedule updated. I am home most of the week doing classes online, so I do have a lot of extra time for pet sitting, dog walks, and drop ins! I pride myself in creating a safe and loving environment for all animals. I treat all animals with love and respect and I always aim to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. In my own home, I only have one cat, but I aim to make the home as safe and playful as I can for him. I intended to bring the same love to other people's homes.

“Madison was so communicative and great with the dogs, she attended to them and cared for them in every way I had hoped for.”

About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!

“Brianna was lovely! She took the time to meet my cat before confirming the booking and was very agreeable to all my many specific requests. I really appreciated that she was gentle and patient with my cat when she was shy and anxious about being around someone new. I highly recommend booking with Brianna! :)”

About: Animal care has been a part of my whole life. I've always had a pet, whether they were cats or dogs. No matter the size, age, or breed of the pet, I understand to respect their boundaries and be mindful of their safety. Spoiling and playing with pets is the easiest task on the planet. I'm a part-time college instructor. My hours are extremely flexible, so I can happily take a break from grading to pop in for a pet. I first and foremost will defer to the owner's instructions and requests. For pop in care, I will check basic needs first: food/water/litter box/potty breaks. Then comes socializing or any other request from the owner. Weather permitting, I like to take dogs out for fetch, chase, tug-a-war, or casual walks. What we do is sometimes determined by the breed of dog. For cats, I understand that play is up to them. I'm happy to engage in any way they prefer. My own cat is a fiend for a string.

“Amanda is such a gift. Communication is great and the pets are so well cared for. I don't know what we would do without her!”

About: Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I've had cats since birth, cared for large dogs for the past 10 years, and have owned snakes and other reptiles for more than 20 years. This experience has given me a great understanding of the unique needs, personalities, and behaviors of many different types of pets. One of my greatest strengths is building trust quickly with animals. I take the time to meet each pet where they are, learn their preferences, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pet is full of zoomies, or prefers to hide under the bed, I adapt my approach to what works best for them. I understand that pets are family - they are for me too. I can't imagine my life without my pups, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. Whether you need pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, or just plain companionship while you're away, you can feel confident knowing your beloved pet is in caring and experienced hands. I am a teacher and am currently off for the summers so my hours are flexible. During the school year I can help weekends and evenings. I follow your instructions and care plans as you know what’s best for your pet. My goal is for your animals to feel that while they miss you, their routine and schedule has remained the same so they feel safe and loved.

“Shawnee is great! Very sweet and responsible. She took great care of my chickens and goats while out of town for a week. I will definitely request her services again!”

“Thanks so much for taking care of our fur babies again.”

“My cats and I had a great experience! Makenna clearly loves animals, was positive and patient, a prompt and detailed communicator, and followed all the expected pet routines. I was also absolutely delighted with the photos she shared each day - she was somehow able to capture my cat’s personalities each day and the photos were totally above and beyond what I was expecting. Would totally recommend Makenna!”

About: Hi! If you’ve stumbled across my page, my name is Tra’shea (I also go by T) and I recently moved from Seattle, WA to Albany, OR. I have currently been boarding with rover for a few years now and have many of my customers as regulars, but unfortunately I have moved on from my home state and would love to start a new client base here! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and am good with all breeds and personalities. I’ve previously worked at two separate dog daycare/boarding facilities where I have stayed over night with upward of 15 dogs. I’m very flexible whether you need to book a short notice request or a month in advance. I look forward to meeting all of the dogs and owners I get a chance to book with. I currently work in the social work field Monday thru Wednesday and Saturdays, 4pm-12am. On Saturdays I am limited to drop-ins or walks before 3pm! I have a car, so park access, scenic walks, etc are highly accessible! I’ve worked with training & grooming some dogs as well, if you would like extra leash training on walks or any obedience work, nail trims or a quick bath- just mention when booking. :) Just over-all would like to make this the easiest & safest stay for you and your pet, while also having fun and getting them the attention & care they need!

“Jacob did a great job caring for my chickens and goats for several days. He and his wife Margo are delightful, caring people who know and care about animals. I will definitely use them again.”

“Caitlin was amazing! Great communication, lots of pictures, and detailed notes. We look forward to having her walk/check-in on Murphy again in the future!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a teen. I love walking and have experience with reactive, shy, and energetic dogs and cats. I have been referred time and again for my reliability and individualized attention to each animal I encounter. I have a very flexible schedule and I am looking to fill my time and energy with extra pet support for anyone who's in need! I am happy to walk in your neighborhood, take your pup for a hike and just hang out at home for the nervous or senior dogs. I can work with your routine and your pets individual needs.

“Emily was amazing with our dogs! She kept us updated every visit with sweet pictures, and it was clear how happy and relaxed they were in every one. She spent quality time playing with them and made sure they were tired out and content by the end of each visit. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly loves and connects with animals!”
