Pet Sitting Jefferson Westside

“Amy did an excellent job with our cats, and was very communicative when issues arose. Our cats were happy and well cared for, and I would happily recommend her to anyone!”

Madeline S.

“Erin was absolutely incredible! She took the time to write fun, thoughtful summaries of each visit and always included plenty of photos. It was such a relief coming home after a long, stressful day of travel to full food and water bowls and clean, freshly tended litter boxes. Since we’re new to the area, we’ve been dabbling in different cat sitters, and we feel so lucky to have finally found the perfect fit. Your pets will be in great hands with Erin!”

“Hayden continues to be such an amazing cat-sitter that it blows my mind. I had a very short notice visit I needed taken care of (next day), and she reached back out to me within the hour and we worked something out. I always appreciate how communicative she is, and how flexible she's willing to be, not to mention what a phenomenal job she does with the cats. This isn't the first 5-star review I've left for her, and it certainly won't be the last!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is how attentive and patient I am with animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, detail-oriented, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m especially gentle with nervous or shy pets and make sure they get plenty of reassurance, exercise, and affection at their own pace. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering basic care as instructed, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, cared for, and loved in a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I attend college on Mondays and Wednesdays, am mostly home and available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and available Fridays until the evening. I work short weekend shifts but remain flexible for pet care before and after work. I live in an apartment with two cats and maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment. I carefully follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions, give pets plenty of attention, and adjust care based on their comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines, keep spaces tidy, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Sonia is fantastic! She’s very professional and always on time. She takes such wonderful care of our dog (he’s always so excited to see her!) and she sends daily updates and pictures, which we absolutely love! We will definitely rebook with Sonia for future needs!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, starting with the two German Shepards (Satori and Jazzy) my parents had when I was born all the way up to my two cats (Lady and Tigerlily) and dog (Clyde) who bring me joy and purpose every day. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens and goats, learning to care, appreciate and work with animals from a young age. I’ve been professionally pet and house sitting for 4 years now and have loved every second of it. I work part time doing data analytics remote work. I set my own schedule and I will always prioritize you, your pets and your home. I care for my own and my clients’ pets through keeping them company, making sure their physical, mental and medical needs are met and by keeping them to their routines. I lead with compassion, empathy and responsibility.

“Kezia was the best Rover we’ve ever had! Took great pictures and left in depth blurbs about what our cats were up to. We really appreciated all the attention she gave.”

Robert C.

“Kendra took great care of our 3 boys (cats.) She was communicative and shared photos with us during her visit. She was a great help to make sure our boys got wet food, some company, and a clean litter while we were away. Thanks, Kendra! Would rebook and recommend her to anyone needing reliable pet cat care!”

Oliana Torres S.

“Caitlin goes beyond expectations. This is the 2nd time I hire her to check in on my cat and I'm very happy with her professionalism. Her visit photos and notes are lovely and they give me peace of mind that my cat is doing well.”

Maria E. F.

“Karina was AMAZING with my kitty Nuke! Nuke is a bit of an oddball, and even though she’s friendly, I’m always a bit nervous about booking a sitter. Karina asked so many questions at our meet and greet, really took the care to learn everything there was to know, and made me feel confident that I was leaving my baby in good hands. Great communication, super detailed daily reports, and so many photo updates too:) I truly cannot recommend Karina enough!! She really went above and beyond, and I could tell that she cared for my Nukie as if she was her own. I came home to a safe and happy cat:) She’ll definitely be my first choice for future Nuke-sitting!”

Amy T.

“Kelsie was an absolute dream to work with! Kelsie did weekly drop-in visits for me for 6+ months. My very shy and nervous dog loved her and I never had any concerns for his safety or happiness when he was in her care. She is communicative, flexible, and exceptionally trustworthy. I would highly recommend Kelsie to care for your fur babies!”

Liz L.

“Emily's cat-sitting services exceeded my expectations. At the meet and greet she asked for vet info in case of an emergency and asked about my cat's health so she could monitor for any issues. She was extremely warm, kind, and compassionate. She deeply cared for my cat and texted while she was here to let me know how the check-in was going and ask questions. We are thrilled to recommend Emily to others and looking forward to having her as our long-term sitter. Thank you Emily for your impeccable service and care!”

About: Twenty plus years of fun taking care of cats, dogs of different breeds, temperaments, ages, and sizes, and even some chickens. Including Noah's ark - a rabbit, hamster, rat, and fish. I have completed Rover's safety dog video. I grew up with dogs. My energy level is low-key and calm, which enables pets to relax. I give daily text updates and send photos. I have experience in giving shots (to my cat, who had diabetes), playing tug of war, throwing the ball, and taking Fido for walks. Currently I am not working a permanent job, so my availability is wide open (other than Sunday morning commitments & taking care of my place each day). I care for your pets in your home in the way you want them cared for. I give them the time to get used to me & treat them with gentleness and love. Making sure they are safe and having fun is important to me.

“Mia was very sweet and kind with our babies! And she was very attentive to their needs as well as loving on them, which is so reassuring while leaving them! She followed instructions perfectly and kept us in the loop with great communication”

About: At this point in my life, I have cared for almost any domestic, exotic or farm animal that one can run into! Time spent working with snakes and spiders in a reptile shop, working on farms with cattle, goats and chickens, and caring for everyones furry companions like cats, dogs and rodents in homes has left me feeling well prepared to handle whatever critters come our way. My remaining pet is Sharkbait, a 9 year old heeler mix, who has been the everywhere and everything dog with me for the last 8+ years. She has met all of the above animals in her time and is the ultimate friend to all. As a retired service animal, she is kind and intuitive while responding calmly to reactive animals she meets. This makes her the perfect travel companion and buddy for all your babies and she will always be with me on sitting and walking jobs as she and I like to stay very active, walking anywhere from 2-6 miles daily together. Lets chat about your animals specific needs and background! Being active is a huge part of my day and I love making sure your animals are included in that! Walks to the park and jogs around the block are my favorite way to keep your pets focus while expending that pent up energy. For homebody pets I love a good puzzle or snuffle toy to keep their minds working in their safe space. Meet and greets together as a family are priority so that when you're out of town or at work, your pet(s) can trust Sharkbait and I are there to support them. Any candid tips and tricks around behaviors or routines are welcomed.

“Rosa is a wonderful and caring person. She is very intuitive and instantly gained trust from my cats. She successfully delivered fluids to my kitty with kidney disease and provided me with updates. I would definitely rebook with Rosa.”

About: Hi there! My journey in professional animal care began early, shadowing my mother in her animal behavior and care business. I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of species—including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, cattle, goats, and rabbits—which shaped my understanding of how to meet animals where they are: emotionally, behaviorally, and physically. While I am not a licensed dog trainer, I’ve spent much of my life developing a thoughtful, intuitive approach to animal care. My professional background includes extensive training in wildlife handling and care techniques. During college, I volunteered at the Cascades Raptor Center in Eugene, assisting with the daily care and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, building trust through reliability, compassion, and a deep respect for each animal’s unique needs. Now, I’m excited to offer my experience and dedication to the local community. I’m Fear Free Certified for dogs, and while I’m not certified for cats or other animals, I apply many of the same principles across species: 🧘‍♀️ Creating low-stress environments 🐾 Respecting boundaries and body language 🛏️ Offering comfort, routine, and enrichment 🐕‍🦺 Using gentle handling and positive reinforcement In 2024, I worked with shelter animals at Greenhill Humane Society, where I received extensive behavioral training and advanced to independently care for dogs and support enrichment for cats. That experience helped me develop a deep understanding of animal behavior, stress signals, and how to build trust with pets from all backgrounds. What I offer: 🐶🐱 Drop-in visits, walks, feeding, litter care & medication support 🧶 Enrichment activities tailored to your pet’s personality 📸 Daily updates with photos and notes 🐾 Experience with seniors, shy pets, and those with special needs Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I bring calm energy, reliable care, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Thank you for considering me — as someone who has also used Rover for my own pets, I know it can be daunting to find the perfect fit for your furbabies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or extended overnight care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs without the constraints of a traditional 9–5 job. Because I’m home-based, I can offer: 🐕 Timely potty breaks and walks 🐈 Calm, low-stress drop-ins for cats and small pets 🐾 Flexible scheduling for last-minute requests Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or more involved care, I’m able to integrate it seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I currently do not offer in-home boarding, but I provide personalized care in your pet’s own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it's a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins throughout the day, I tailor each session to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. Because I work from home, my schedule is flexible—I can accommodate midday visits, early mornings, or evening care depending on your pet’s habits. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience by respecting their space, reading their body language, and offering enrichment that suits their personality. Your pet gets: 🐾 Familiar surroundings and routines 🧘‍♀️ Low-stress care with gentle handling 🐕 Walks, playtime, feeding & medication support 📸 Updates so you stay connected I treat every visit as a chance to build trust and make your pet’s day better. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I’m here to meet them where they are.

“Guadalupe was very responsive and timely in her communication. Max seemed comfortable with her, and I received many sweet pictures of Max getting hugs.”

“Justine is a terrific kitty whisperer and photographer! Utterly reliable and a friend to my cat posse!”

Melissa A.

“Jennifer was available at fairly short notice, and cared well for our cat during drop-in visits, including a few extras like leaving lights on and closing the curtains, which felt very considerate.”
