Briauna was amazing! Her communication was great and I really appreciated her flexibility when I had a last minute time change with my work schedule. She was so great with our senior, anxious girl and aided to her needs. Thank you so much!

Stephanie was great with my Shih Tzus Belle and Finn. She administered oral meds and eye ointment without a problem, played fetch, and kept them happy with cuddles and loads of attention. Quickly responded to my texts - I had no concern my Littles were anything but happy with her. Will use Stephanie again in the future!

Banana had a wonderful time with Heidi! This was our first trip since our baby was born and we wanted Banana to feel special so she wouldn't be left out. Heidi left our home looking better than we left it and kept us updated throughout our trip. We look forward to having Heidi stay with Banana again!

Ben was a great communicator before, during, and after our visit. He watched Penny over the fourth of july and the fireworks were stressful for our dog. He handled it really well and was checking in with us to help manage her stress. Would definitely book again!

Anthea communicates promptly and professionally. She was on time for our first meet-up prior to petsitting and arrived early for our sit so that our dog would have the smoothest transition possible. She took excellent care of our pup, exercising him multiple times a day and giving us regular updates on his mood and behavior. She provided us with lots of pictures and he was clearly having a great time. If he could talk, I'm sure he would have told us to stay a couple of extra days so he could have more fun with Anthea! She has a great understanding of dog body language and was easily able to help him feel comfortable quickly and know what situations were working for him and when he was feeling more hesitant. We couldn't be more pleased!

Analyss is amazing! We were in a pinch and needed a sitter for our pup Juniper - who can be a little anxious on her own. Analyss saved the day! Very communicative, chill and super sweet with our pup. We loved our updates, and came home to a happy puppy! We will definitely be calling Analyss first when we need a sitter! Highly recommend!

During a rough start thanks to my anxious dog, Samantha was communicative and patient. I think it paid off and once Cava warmed, they had an excellent stay. Pictures and updates were provided every day. Samantha was able to help us out on pretty short notice as well so we are thankful. Will be using Samantha again.

Johnny was very patient with our dog who can be shy with new people. After only two visits Johnny and our dog are becoming good friends. Johnny is also very responsive to messages and regularly sends updates describing how our dog is doing.

James was wonderful taking care of our house and animals. Took great care of our dog with walks and cuddles, and played with our cat and made sure they got outdoor time. He is super responsive and was a pleasure to meet. We will definitely be reaching out again when the time comes.

Joseph watched our two dogs and home for a few days. He was available for a meet and greet prior and provided cute photos and daily updates during his stay. Though our velcro dog would have loved some more human time (he can't get enough) we came home to happy dogs and a clean house!

About: Hello, I’m here to help care for your VIP! I recently said goodbye to my soul dog, Milo, and now my home and days are open to share with your pup—whether that’s long walks, gentle strolls, little adventures, or just cozy hangouts. My approach to pet care is rooted in connection and understanding. From my strong-willed, expressive mare to my sensitive and quirky Milo, I’ve learned to listen closely and respond with empathy and compassion. I’m especially good with shy or anxious dogs who need time to feel safe, as well as sharp pups who thrive with mental enrichment and engagement alongside exercise. Caring for Milo into his senior years also gave me hands-on experience with medications, special routines, and the gentle art of supporting aging pets. I recently started volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society, where I work with a variety of dogs and continue to deepen my understanding of canine body language, behavior, and personalities. DAY CARE: I can accommodate separation anxiety and other pups that need full day companionship depending on which days are needed. Let's chat! BOARDING & HOUSE SITTING: Although I work remotely which allows me to spend the majority of the day with your pup, I can only accommodate pups that can be left alone up to 3-4 hours as most afternoons I go to the barn to care for my mare 🐴 I work from home full-time, so my availability is flexible and generous throughout the day and week. At most I am away for 3-4 hours on the days I go to tend to my mare or walk the pups at OHS. My home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of grassy space for play, and I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood just a few blocks from Pier Park. When your dog stays with me, they’ll have free rein of the house, lots of supervised backyard time, and a cozy bed in my office if they feel like being my work buddy. I do live with my husband who your pup might see in the mornings or occasionally midday for lunch, but no other people at the house while your pup is here for day care. If I’m caring for your pup at your home, I’m happy to set up a remote office and spend the day on their turf, keeping them company in their own space.

Megan arrived on time and stayed a little later caring for our pets! We appreciate her pet sitting as pets were not allowed on hiking trail. Thanks Megan!
