“Harper was very good. She kept me updated and sent pictures. She even cleaned up the mess my dog made as she got out of her crate and loved her freedom. I highly recommend her.”
“Helena was great! She was very communicative and kept me up to date on my cats. She even went above and beyond and dropped in an extra time as well as bringing a package I received up to my apartment for me! Will definitely use her again the next time I need a sitter.”
“My dog Lucy loved Jade. She came over 3-4 times a week, walked, and hung out with Lucy. Jade was great and Lucy looked forward to seeing her. I would still be using Jade if I didn’t move, but would use her again if I go back. Cannot say enough good things about Jade and how great she was with my dog.”

About: I am COVID vaccinated and perfectly happy to mask up for meet and greets. I have 13+ years experience with a difficult and anxious dog. Im able to provide a calm presence for nervous/fearful dogs and I have years of experience with administering oral medications. I’ve had pets my whole life, ranging from cats to dogs to hamsters to rats. I work full time during the day, but I am able to do morning and evening check ins for your pets. I’m a daily cat box scooper in my own home. My weekend availability it higher for longer visits as needed. I am a big fan of maintaining as normal of a schedule as possible for your pets. I’m happy to indulge any quirks (I’ve wiped bottoms after potty breaks) that your pet may have so we can have the best experience together.
“She was incredibly friendly and reassuring when she came for the intake. Our cat is a shy girl, so seeing pictures of Serena petting her and her eating is so amazing. We came home, and it was like we never left. Definitely coming to her again!”
About: Our family would love to spend time with your dog! We had a Shitzu Llaso Apso for the last 15 yrs, but he passed away. We're not quite ready to adopt another dog but he left a serious hole. We'd be ever so grateful for you to lend us your pup to soak up our attention! Brenda has had dogs her whole life. From puppies to old buddies. We'll take your instructions seriously and make sure your dog is happy and loved. Dogs under 40 lbs are the best fit for our space and we limit our pup sitting capacity to two pets at a time. If your pet needs 1 on 1 care just let us know and we'll do our best to arrange it! We have two kids (12 & 14) who went to the"PET" (Pet Education Training) class at OMSI last summer and are serious about treating your dog well. We love to play at the park and go for neighborhood walks! Or just hang out in our fenced yard if that's your buddy’s speed. Reach out, we'd love to meet your pup fur-real! Brenda works part-time from home and loves the energy that dogs bring to her workday. We have a fenced yard and love going for walks. We take your instructions seriously when it comes to caring for your pup. We have experience with dogs of all ages. If you have any questions just text/call us at anytime during your dogs stay.
“Jiwan was amazing with my dog, Rosie, and my cat, Trout! Rosie can be very slow to liking strangers and Jiwan was very patient with her and by the last visit they were able to play and go on walks together. The communication and pictures provided were very much appreciated as well”

“Mark took great care of our dogs while we took a quick weekend trip. They got to stay in the comfort of their own home while he checked in on them. Our dogs seemed to really like Mark and we look forward to using him again! ”
About: I’ve had all types of animals for most of my life. I currently have three dogs, two cats and two fish tanks between my partner and I. I love animals and have always had a special sense with them. My schedule is kind of odd. I work on Monday afternoons and I am a mobile bartender and my schedule for that is always changing. I am a great communicator though! I have a fenced yard and my dogs are extremely socialized. I have worked hard to keep them friendly and happy fur babies.i am competent and can keep multiple dogs under control on the leash or safely pass other dogs without reaction. I also have references if requested. I love everyone’s animal with the respect that they deserve.
About: I’ve lived with and fostered Cane Corso, Mastiffs, Labradors, a Norwegian Forest Cat, and more. My two Labs and I go for walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks. I currently have an epileptic dog, another with an insatiable appetite for snacks, as well as a diabetic cat. My family and I previously rescued a Cattle Dog with a broken leg, an English Mastiff that was starved and abused, and a chronically ill hedgehog. I passionately advocate for every animal on Earth to be shown love and respect. Available throughout the week for walks, check ins, and overnight sitting. Flexible with requests, and comfortable with all kinds of animals. Will communicate in a timely manner with updates and photos. I care for pets in the clients home because I have my own. Clients should communicate any instructions related to their pet and/or home and I will provide them courteously.

Haley M.
“Haley is an absolute gem. She takes such loving, attentive care of her own sweet senior pup, Luna, and it shows in how she treats every dog she meets. When she watched my dogs, Gyoza and Cloud, she treated them like they were her own — patient, playful, and totally tuned in to their personalities and needs. She gave thoughtful updates, sent adorable photos, and made sure they felt safe and loved the whole time. I could tell my pups were calm and happy when I picked them up — which says everything. Haley is the kind of sitter who truly gets dogs — especially ones who need a little extra gentleness or attention. If you’re looking for someone who’s both deeply experienced and full of heart, Haley is your person. I trust her completely with my fur family and would recommend her to anyone!”
