“Natalie is such an amazing sitter! We had to find a new sitter and she is wonderful. She cleaned up some messes one of our older cats made, ensured that their waters were clean, and loved on my cats. Keeping her info for the future!!”


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.

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 was a wonderful sitter for our senior cat. She was very thorough, thoughtful, and provided timely updates. Highly recommend and would book again in the future!”


“Keri took excellent care of our 4 month old puppy while I was traveling for work this week. I really appreciated the adorable photos and daily summary. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our little pup.”


About: I’m new to public pet sitting but have experience with friends and family. I want to make pet parents feel comfortable while their fur kids are being taken care of. I work full time however I can be flexible with my time during the week and my weekends are open. If I’m able to get a month notice I can be more flexible with week day schedules. I really enjoy senior pets so if you want me to read to them or watch shows or cuddle with them I am your sitter . I have a fenced yard and a doggie door with a back yard camera. I also allow them to roam my house and can provide them a bed to sleep in or cuddle with them whichever fits their needs. I’m open to keeping the pets at their homes if that’s also more comfortable for the pet and family . I understand that some pets have unique needs and that there can be separation anxiety so please feel free to know your pets needs .

“Andrea was a huge help when I was ill and couldn’t walk our Golden, Ellie. Andrea’s super dependable and it was lovely to have her come three times this week to walk Ellie. Ellie loves children so it was especially nice that Andrea could include her kids — and she made sure to ask us first about including them. Andrea gave us a Rover report and with pics after every walk! Without a doubt we’ll be looking to Andrea for more help with walks.”


About: I make sure your pet feels like a member of the family, not only are they smart, they need attention to make sure they can have trust. I have nothing but time and attention to give. I love to have fun, that's what life's all about, getting out there and having adventures. Any new opportunity is what pushes me into the next day, can't wait to meet you and hear your story. As a type one diabetic, I know how important special needs are, especially for pets, any medication, any set schedule, anything to make sure your animal has a long and fruitful life in your family

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and started caring for dogs when I was just 11. Every pet I meet feels like an extension of my own furry family. I’ve had the joy of raising both playful puppies and comforting senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I bring patience, compassion, and attention to detail to every pet I care for, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. As a full-time accounting student, I thrive when I have a full, productive schedule — and spending time with animals is one of the best parts of my week! I always make sure to dedicate time to give animals the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whenever possible, I also enjoy volunteering at special events with the Oregon Humane Society, which has only deepened my passion for working with animals and making them feel safe and happy. I’m able to give my full attention and extra love to the pets I care for. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, comfort, and creating a calm environment where pets feel at ease. I’m fortunate to live in a friendly community with plenty of beautiful walking spots perfect for outdoor time. I treat every home with great respect and always aim to leave spaces even tidier than I found them, ensuring peace of mind for pet parents while they’re away.

“Megan did an amazing job taking care of our kittys while we were on vacation. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone, even if it's just a one day thing. She was very attentive and awesome communication.”


“April was consistent with feedback and pictures. Our dogs loved her, even the one that typically doesn't care about sitters. We felt 100% confident that they were well taken care of and happy.”


About: Been taking care of dogs since I was little. I have a Cavalier king Charles spaniel and looking for more walking buddies. Also a student at Pacific University looking to make a little money in my spare time. I have school from 8-5 and am free to walk dogs most times besides that. I work very part time and am free all day on most weekends. My dog has a fenced in backyard with lots of shade and room to run around. I take them on a walk at least every day and a longer walk 3-4 times a week.

“Thank you so much for dropping in to check on our two kitties. We really really appreciate that you were able to visit around Mollee's bedtime and to see her in the photos all relaxed in her usual places. Della jumped down from the cat tree in the office when we got home, she was napping up top. Hopefully, as she gets to know you, she will come out and play with you!”


About: I’m an experienced and responsible student looking to spend time, love, and play with fur babies! I will ensure your pet is happy and well-cared for, giving you a peace of mind. I currently work part time, mostly in the afternoons, and would love to spend time with your pet in the mornings before I go to work! I am available Tuesday-Thursday for the most part, and could possibly be available some other mornings as well. In a client’s home, I prioritize comfort, safety, cleanliness, and most of all no stress for pet or owner. I would strictly adhere to instructions regarding feeding, and exercise routines, as well as anything else needed. I will provide plenty of attention, affection, and care to ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and engaged.
