About: While I’ve had family pets my whole life (dogs, cats, tortoises, frogs, and classic betta fish), I waited until after undergrad to try my hand at raising puppies. I have two energetic Siberian huskies who LOVE their play time, their walks and trips to the dog park. They make fast friends! Zuko, the youngest husky, has cataracts in his eyes, so I have a lot of personal experience with medication and eye drop administration. I currently only work part time at our local restaurant, and I’m off Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Wednesdays I work 4:30pm-9pm, and Sundays I work 9am-1pm, but I have the unique ability to take as many breaks on Sunday as I please, offering more time for potty breaks and walks! Mondays I work 9am-1pm and 4pm-9pm, so I usually do come home on my break to walk and feed my boys, and if that schedule works for your pup, I’d be happy to care for them then as well! My backyard is fully fenced (6ft wood fence), and two young, energetic Siberian huskies to keep your baby company! Both of my boys are neutered, friendly, and don’t mind a little rougher play. My dogs are not crated while I’m away, but I do have a crate and a separate room for your pup for the hours I am gone. Dogs are always allowed on the furniture in my house.

“Eliza is amazing. So diligent to our pups needs, asks questions about their health, behaviors, and any thing we'd like her to work on training wise with walks. She also cares about how comfortable our pups are emotionally and confidence wise so if they get spooked by a noise she's happy to change up the walk plan for a bit and try again. Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”


About: I have been looking after animals for the past seven years. I have neighbors, family, and friends rely on me to take care, walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I also have a lot of experience with blind dogs specifically and how to cater to their specific needs. I’ve also been cat sitting for since I can literally remember!! Not to mention, I have been caring for my own two cats for the past 12 years. I will take care of your baby as they are my own and make sure they feel like they’re on vacation while you’re on your vacation!! I’m currently a student in school, but that’s pretty much it, so I’d have plenty of time to put in all the necessary effort and time into your pet’s needs. Most of the cats I cat cat sit are indoor cats that are allowed a few minutes of monitored outside time. Additionally, I often have pets that need to follow a strict feeding, walking, and playing schedule that I always respect.

About: 🐶 About Me Hi there! I’m Jessica—a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet parent. After 16½ wonderful years with my own pup, I’m not quite ready for a new dog of my own… but I deeply miss the joy, snuggles, and companionship. That’s why I’m here—to give your dog a safe, loving, and fun environment while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have round-the-clock attention and care. Whether they love to play, nap in a sunny spot, or follow someone from room to room, I’ll be there for them every step (and paw print) of the day. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I had the joy of caring for my own dog for over 16½ years—from energetic puppyhood through her golden senior years. That experience gave me a deep understanding of how to adapt care based on age, energy level, and personality. Whether it’s giving meds, managing special diets, or making sure senior pups get up and down stairs safely, I’ve been there. What sets me apart is my ability to create a calm, loving environment that feels like home. I work from home full-time, so your dog won’t be left alone—and they’ll get personalized attention, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. I’m especially tuned in to dogs who need a little extra TLC—whether they’re shy, older, or adjusting to time away from home. I’m happy to stick to specific routines, administer medications, and support training habits you already have in place. This isn’t just a side gig for me—it’s a heartfelt way to stay connected to the dog energy I love so much, and to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾 Why I’m a Great Sitter 16+ years of hands-on dog ownership Full-time work-from-home setup = 24/7 companionship Calm, nurturing energy and personalized care Flexible schedule and great communication Comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and personalities 🏡 My Home & Yard Your pup will love my fully fenced backyard—it’s a secure space perfect for zoomies, sniffing adventures, and lounging in the fresh air. It’s also chock full of toys and “buried treasure” from my own beloved pup—a backyard with history, love, and tail-wagging energy. Inside, they’ll find a calm, cozy space with plenty of room to relax, play, and feel at home. Whether they’re crate-trained, couch cuddlers, or both—I’ll follow their routine to the letter. 📸 What to Expect I provide consistent updates, adorable photos, and check-ins so you’re never left wondering how your fur baby is doing. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone—and I take that responsibility seriously. Your pup will be treated like family, because in my house… they are. I work from home full-time, which means I’m here all day to keep your pup company! My schedule is flexible, so I can easily accommodate potty breaks, playtime, walks, and feedings according to your dog’s usual routine. Mornings start with outside time in my fully fenced yard, followed by a mix of work (for me) and supervised lounging, cuddles, and playtime (for your pup). Midday walks and backyard breaks are part of our rhythm, and evenings are all about winding down together with lots of love and attention. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, your dog will have round-the-clock care and companionship. I never overbook, so your pet gets the dedicated attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming environment with lots of soft places to rest, space to play, and loving company throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time—perfect for sniffing, exploring, and soaking up the sun. I always supervise outdoor play, and dogs are never left unattended in the yard. Inside, I create a low-stress atmosphere with minimal noise and no other pets or small children, so your dog can settle in and relax. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, crate routines, or medication needs. I’m happy to provide frequent updates with photos and notes, so you always know how your pup is doing. This isn’t just pet sitting—it’s building trust and creating a safe, loving space that feels like home while you’re away.

“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful! She cares for our dog as her own. After each walk, she gives a detailed report complete with pictures of her visit. Highly recommend!”


“We used Mckenzie and Andre's service for the second time this past week when Andre did a daily walk for our two mini Aussies while we were away on vacation (with our adult daughter home but away all day). Andre accommodated our request to transport them to a less busy area to walk, and he kept us updated on the basics of concern to us; his help was much appreciated and a relief to us. It seems our pups enjoyed the way he walked them together, as they have been giving us signals that they both want to be in front now as Andre does it:) We would happily use the service again. (Thanks!)”


“We really appreciated Andrea's dog walking services. She was respectful and trustworthy! She did a great job walking our 2 puppies while we were away. She sent us cute pictures and gave us peace of mind that they were being well taken care of! I would definitely use her again!”


About: As an animal lover, I'd consider myself very experienced with animals of all kinds. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, and horses. Before losing him in the fall of 2023, I raised and cared for my dog, Chaps, for 12 years. It was a great 12 years, and I loved spending time training him. "Sit" and "down" are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the tricks Chaps could do. I am very comfortable with pets of all sizes. I am also comfortable taking care of most any special needs your pet may have. Tell me what you and your pet like, and I will do my best to provide an experience just the way you, and they, like it! Your pet will be safe and comfortable with me! I'm pretty flexible in how I organize my time. Walks, feedings, etc. can all be arranged with me to satisfy your expectations. Having had our own pets, we feel confident that satisfying your pet’s needs while they’re in my care should be seamless. Our backyard is dog-safe with a 6-foot privacy fence and access to a maintained yard with grass. Following your instructions and having the ability to communicate will provide a sense of security for you and helps me to give the best experience for your pet if I have questions about your pet’s care while you’re away. I’m a big fan of communicating!

About: I have over twenty years experience caring for not only dogs: but also speciality animals such as horses and reptiles. I have a vet assisting degree, and security experience. I am familiar with licensing and bonding, animal behavior and various medications - including but not limited to insulin injections, and I am licensed with the state of IL to practice security. Not only am I reliable, but I am an experieneced and safe option while you’re away. I live on a five acre farm with horses, cats, dogs, and other various animals. I believe animals are family. I have a section of the house for cats, and one for dogs. The cats have access to the dog room, but can easily be cut off from entrance. My home, and habits, are very safe and organized. I work and network with my husband and family. There is always someone available! All animals are considered family to us! Please take special note that when booking for you animal companions to stay at our home, we are not a boarding center, we are a personal home setting. In order to ensure the best success with this arrangement, a visit to your home where your dog is comfortable and not stressed is required before visiting our place of residence. This gives us important insight on your animals natural behaviors to ensure the best action/sitting experience not only for us - but especially for your animals. I have plenty of time for your pups and their specific needs/routines. We cater to every animal as if they were our own, and understand each one is special and different. We have a double fenced yard, with lots of open space indoors and out. Extra crates and or farm house furniture for your pets needs.

“Kayla has been great with my pups, they seem to really enjoy their walks with her. She is responsive, timely, and follows instructions wonderfully. I look forward to booking with her for regular walks during my work week!”


About: My passion for animals runs deep. I have been taking care of dogs since childhood (35+ years). Professionally, I have experience working at a doggie daycare and for a self-service dog wash. I understand the importance of keeping pets on a consistent, healthy diet and administering medication properly. As a doggie daycare attendant, sometimes managing 60 dogs at once, I understand the importance of reading dog behavior and redirecting to diffuse situations. This skill translates to dog walking when there are many different stimuli - other dogs, people, squirrels, traffic, something on the ground they should not eat, etc. I understand the importance of being consistent with dog training and using the same commands as the owners is key. Dogs come in all shapes and sizes but it is important to be intentional with each dog's particular needs and understand their unique personality. There is a special place in my heart for senior dogs. I have been running a small hobby farm since 2016 and have experience with chickens, ducks, turkeys, rabbits, cats, peacocks, pigs, and goats. Feel free to reach out for any unique pet care needs. I view all animals as God's creatures. My schedule is often flexible. I work part-time in Beaverton Wednesday-Saturday. Much of my work can be done online so if you need me to watch your pet in your house for an extended amount of time, a requirement would be reliable internet or the ability to come and go as needed. I have pets of my own so I would need the flexibility to check on my pets from time to time. Working in pet drop-ins and dog walks around my work schedule is easy. I can board your pet at my house most Sundays-Tuesdays. I am able to care for your pet(s) in the specific ways that you need. I will not create or enforce bad habits. I have no problem crating your pet, keeping them off the furniture, following a strict diet, or administering medication. I live out in the country on 15 acres and have many animals. Inside the house lives a 4-year-old sweet German Short-hair pointer and 50% of the time I am watching a friend's cat. If your dog loves to run, my place would be heaven. This would only be ideal for dogs that come when they are called as there is no fencing. The other option would be that your pet stays inside and only ventures out with a leash. I have 12 acres of timber so walks in the woods are super fun!


About: The first and only thing I ever begged my parents for was my very own dog... I didn't care how big/small, young/old it was but I knew it would be my best friend. I got my very own dog when I was 11 years old for Christmas and now, almost 17 years later I could never imagine life without dogs in it. Our only pet is our puppy Georgia who is a 5 month old Lab/Pit mix and we adore her so much! She is great with other dogs and loves all people. Aside from my love of dogs (and all animals) I am Certified as a Dog Trainer and also Certified as a Veterinary Assistant, which means I am also capable of administering medication while you are away. I am home just about 24/7 so any dog that stays with me will never be left alone. I look forward to meeting and speaking with you, thank you! -Megan R.

About: Have raised up our family dog for 8 years since his puppy. Can handle bigger dogs (german shepard, huskys). Have delt with hyperactive/ seperation anxiety dogs that require more attention and specific care, feeding. I am currently doing studies on the side. I have full time availability. Willing to be at your home/with your pet as earlt as 6am, and stay as late needed. Giving my dog attention whether its on a walk or playing tug of war it is always important to be around him when possible. He has a feeding schedual he is accustomed to so I know that punctuality is a key factor in a pets schedual.

“We have known Katri since her childhood. She has always been a dog lover and her two dogs are her children. She is a loving and caring pet owner and takes a genuine interest in other people’s pets as well. She has frequently cared for our 3 dogs when we are out of town and often takes them for long walks and/or plays with them. She is patient, thoughtful and very intelligent. My wife and I would highly recommend Katri to anyone considering using her for pet walking, boarding or general pet care. She is an amazing human!”

Jessica J.
“I’ve seen firsthand how much love, patience, and care she gives to every dog she watches—like they’re her own. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a senior pup who just wants cuddles and calm walks, she’s amazing at tuning in to what each dog needs. She’s responsible, super communicative, and keeps both dogs and their humans happy and at ease. I’ve watched dogs literally not want to leave her side when it’s time to go home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and genuinely passionate about animals, you won’t find better.”
