House Sitting Macleay

“Candace was great! My husband and I just moved to the area and we’ve never had a non-family member take care of our fur kids. Needless to say I was nervous! Candace did an amazing job communicating with us before and throughout her stay. From her daily pictures we could see she kept the kids on their routine and they seemed to be so happy while we were away. We will definitely book Candace again for our next trip!”

“We had an amazing experience with Alivia and would recommend her to everyone looking for a dog sitter! She took such good care of our dog while we were gone. He’s kind of anxious around new people and she was so kind and patient with him, she sent us videos of him wagging his tail and being goofy :)”

Kaitlin F.

“Such a great experience! She sent multiple updates and it was nice to know that my pets were being well taken care of. Would definitely book again!”

“Kellie did a great job of communicating with us. We appreciated the pictures of our pup and her enthusiasm for taking good care of him. We will definitely request her services again.”

“Alyssa is AMAZING. our lil rescue Chiweenie can be a nervous guy and Alyssa was great with him and super patient. We had her come by and hang out while we were gone and it was so great having the peace of mind knowing someone was home with him. We will definitely be booking her again if needed in the future!”

Angelina C.

“Natalya was attentive and gave exceptional care. She administered supplements, kept feeding time schedules, and took time for outdoor activities. We appreciated her communication and pictures. We will definitely schedule her for upcoming care. Thank you, Natalya for giving us a peace of mind. :-)))”

“We were in a real bind to get a sitter and she was able to help us at the last minute. She took great care of both of our dogs and even washed some of their blankets while we were gone. Would recommend her again!”

Steven L.

“Debbie was great. She handled everything professionally, asked great questions, and even had some suggestions. Good communication leading up to and during our trip. We would use her again.”

David L.

“Melody did an amazing job taking care of our pets AND home! We felt extremely comfortable leaving them in her care. She was great at communicating, sent frequent updates, and really devoted her time to ensuring everything went smoothly. Truly an amazing sitter. We would absolutely reach out to her to watch our pets again!”

About: I have a tremendous love and respect for all animals. My attentive nature surges when in the presence of any animal… they are all I care about! I have been taking care of my family and friends pets for years! I can do special instructions with medicine for animals as well. I am currently working at Starbucks as a barista. My store that I work at is only 5 mins from my apartment. My shifts are normally no longer than 6 hours, and my boyfriend is home full time as well. Besides from work I am always home! I live in a cozy apartment with two of my own little kitties! I have a soft, large, playpen enclosure for your pet if needed, but my kitties are pretty friendly!

About: I've taken care of pets, both my own fur babies and those of loved ones, my whole life! Whether it's walking your puppy during a long work day or making sure that your senior cat gets their medication on time when you're out of town, whether it's playing with your teacup Chihuahua or your giant mastiff mix, I am well versed in pet care and understand that while life may make demands on our time, that our furry friends still deserve uncompromised love and attention. I am currently not working and am currently seeking part time employment, so my schedule is fully open! I can help make sure that your pets get what they need at the times that work best for your routines. I have considerable experience working with and being around cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and care needs! Whether it's a little dog with a big personality, a gentle giant dog, a lazy cat, or an active kitten, you can rely on me to stay calm and steady to provide the best possible care for your animals and to meet them where they're at in terms of need for engagement and activity.

“Lexi is an amazing pet sitter and house sitter. My guy buster took to her immediately, and she was so carrying in a ton with him. And went over and above to make sure that when I got home, I had a little to do as possible. I would absolutely use her again, and Ashley asked, but she is already busy for the next time I need help. She’s amazing and I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Chris was an excellent pup sitter for our black lab. We were nervous to leave our boy and it was our first time having a stranger in our home to care for him. Chris was kind and patient with Cayde and gave us frequent updates on how things were going. Chris put us at ease and left the home as he found it. We'd definitely have him return for future in-home pet sitting!!”

About: hi there! Im Dylan and I can't wait to meet you and your pet. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs, and I can't have one of my own right now so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I'm very understanding of dogs that are a little more anxious, and provide them with a calm presence during the stay. Your pet is your family, and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. I'm responsible, creative, and have been described as an old soul. I love meeting new people and dogs-and being a part of a thriving community. When your dog is with me, they'll get lots of one on one attention, and lots of love ! Im currently free anytime any day during the week. So whatever works for you is great to me. Monday through Friday even weekends are fine. I provide safe, and fun interactions with all pets I look after. I am respectful of all pet owners and their pets and am able to follow any specific care instructions set forth. I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups! And updating you on how the sitting is going ! I have no fenced yard. But well enough of space to keep your pup occupied and having fun ! Friendly neighborhood safe environment for your pup !

“My 3 pets were well taken care of by Alice for an entire week. She kept me updated with pictures and left my place very tidy before I got home from vacation. Will be booking with her again when I need someone to watch over my pets!”

About: I've been an animal lover as long as I can remember. When I was 9 years old, my Dad got me my first Golden Retriever for Valentine's Day 1998. Her name was Star. I wanted a Golden because I fell in love with Shadow from "Homeward Bound". Star was my best friend, and we trained together in Canine Good Citizenry and agility. She could jump through hula hoops, over my arm, and she knew all sorts of tricks. I also love horses and used to spend summers and spring breaks on my cousin's farm in Apopka, Florida where she was the Barn Manager for a gal who rode in the Irish Olympics for the Equestrian Team. I had my own horse when I was younger, but we sadly had to sell her when my mother passed away when I was 9 years old. I've had dogs and cats off and on my entire life, but sadly, I just recently moved to Oregon and do not have any pets of my own right now for a few reasons: The first is that I'm working diligently to get established in Oregon and currently have a Mon-Thursday schedule with the City of Salem that requires me to be away from home for over 10 hours a day. Second, my roommate has a sick and aging cat who is not doing well, and we do not want to stress him out by adding pets to the house right now. Hopefully, my roommate will be able to reconsider when things change, but for now, Bok Choy (and his comfort) is our main priority at my house. Third, I'm hoping to move my Dad out to Oregon within the next 3 years, but for now, he is living alone as a retiree in Georgia, where I grew up. He is very attached to our dog Hank, and even though I'm definitely Hank's favorite person, I couldn't stand the thought of separating those two because I felt like my Dad needs Hank more than I do as Hank is his reason to get up in the morning! I miss Hank more than words can express, but I think we made the right call because Hank does not like being alone, and Dad can accommodate this as he is retired whereas I am in the main career years. I have previous dog sitting experience, but sadly, my identity was hacked, and I lost all of my photos on my Facebook account and lost many of my contacts through my old email address that I lost access to. I have also done amateur dog training and hope to get a professional certification in dog training within the next 12 months. I am happy to house sit during my work week if you only have cats that need tending after office hours. I won't be accepting house sitting for dogs unless there is an understanding of my work schedule and the dog has access to a doggy door and a yard or puppy pads are used during the day. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who can be with your dog during the business day instead of requesting me if you have dogs and need assistance during my work week (Mon-Thurs). This is a Side Hustle for me, but it also the more meaningful of my jobs because I love animals more than anything else in this world, and being around them is good for my mental health. I currently work Monday-Thursday until 4:30PM so it will be difficult for me to provide overnight dog sitting until Thursday after 5 PM unless your dog has access to a doggy door or puppy pads. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who does this full time if you need assistance during business hours Monday-Thursday. When I am at your house, your pet is my priority. If they need exercise or stimulation, we will make that happen. I will almost feel guilty for getting paid for it because it will literally be my pleasure. I will ask you to leave detailed instructions that will make my life easier and expect you to extend trust to me to do my job well. I understand it is difficult and that trust is earned and not freely given, but we need to have a clear discussion before you leave about what your expectations are so I can decide If I can meet those in a way that will not cause me undue anxiety. If you need someone after 5PM Mon-Thursday or anytime on the weekends, I am your sitter!

About: I have been to go to pet sitter in my neighborhood all of my life. I've dealt with one neighbor's dog in particular who is a difficult dog and requires medication. Pet care is always my number one priority because if someone was taking care of my dog, I would want the same level of care that I provide. I like to learn and also know the routine of the animal I'm watching to best fit their needs and learn or change when necessary.

About: While I don't have a dog of my own at this time (due to both of my cats being absolutely terrified of them), I grew up with them and absolutely love and adore them. Every time I go to the Saturday Market I make it a point to pet and love on (with permission) as many dogs as I can. Whenever I visit friends or family with dogs, I'm most likely to be found on the floor next to them to ensure I get the most snuggle time as the dog is comfortable with. I've taken care of animals, including my own, for my whole life. I have my own medically complex cats that I take care of daily who each have their own medication and food plans, along with frequently watching my roommates cats when they are out for work. I've pet-sat for a friend for a number of years before I moving out of that area, which included both cat and dog care. I have loads of experience orally medicating cats and keeping track of difficult food plans. I've walked numerous dogs over the years and love getting to pet and interact with them. I left my job in April of 2026 and Rover is the first thing I have explored since then. While I have ongoing obligations on Wednesday and Friday evenings, the timing is flexible. I have lots of time to ensure fulfilling visits with your pets, making sure I can give them everything they need while I am there. I like to chat with folk about their animals ahead of time and learn some of their needs and habits. If they are shy - where do they prefer to hide and how best can I help make them comfortable with my presence. If they are abundantly friendly - how can I best spend my time giving them the right kind of care and affection to meet their needs (I have a cat who was wants to be next to/touching a human at nearly all times - having someone drop in for 20 minutes for food and some affection would NOT be enough for her). Every animal is unique, and our care should reflect that. I also make sure to clean/tidy up the area while I'm there and try to leave it just as clean, if not more, than it was when I got there.

“Kristina did a great job watching our two dogs and cat while we were away for a wedding. Our dogs can be challenging as they are both large and have their quirks being rescues but she embraced them and their quirks. She regularly sent us pictures and updates and even left an adorable Polaroid pic of the pets for us. Not only did she make sure they were well taken care of and loved but she also left our home in better shape than we left it. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“Whitney connected with Cedar at our initial interview so we knew this would be a great fit. No concerns and received updates daily. Cedar was sorry to see her leave!! The house was tidy and well cared for while we were away. A great house/Cedar sitter! Will recommend 👌!”
