Cat Sitting in McKee Bridge

“Lexy was able to get close (physically) to my very shy calico cat during her first visit. I don't believe she was able to touch her but just getting within 2 feet sometimes takes a long time. Lexy is very gentle and takes her time which is very much needed. Of course food and water and clean-up was handled well. I recommend Lexy of course, just don't keep her busy when I need her- ha!”

“She was so great taking care of my cat while I was away! And even graciously put the trash cans on the curb when I forgot to do it before I left.”

“If I could give Jordan 6 stars I would- he took excellent in home care of our cats, guinea pigs, and grumpy cockatiel, including letting us know when one cat was sick and needed vet care, was able to transport to the vet and coordinate communication with the vet and me, and provide follow up meds at home. Awesome job Jordan, we can't wait to have you back again!”

About: I've cared for both cats and dogs since 2017, including walking dogs, feeding puppies and kittens, and looking after adult pets. I've helped dog sit with my aunts and have hands-on experience caring for my own two cats and three dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, gentle approach, and genuine love for animals of all ages. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, and giving extra care to pets that need it, whether they're energetic puppies or calm seniors. I work nights from 3:30 to 7:00 or 7:30 five days a week, with varying days off. I'm available for morning and afternoon visits before work, as well as late evenings and overnight care. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care that fits around your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make their comfort and safety my top priority. I follow any specific routines or instructions closely to help your pet feel secure and cared for. I keep a calm, clean, and respectful environment, making sure they get plenty of attention, play, and love while you're away. I treat every pet like family and every home with care.

“Jordan has been wonderful about watching my ducks. It’s a somewhat unusual pet sitting request, but he adapted to it right away and always sends the cutest pictures. I feel confident leaving my duckies knowing Jordan is watching them.”

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs nearly all my life. I have a chihuahua named Mae who I rescued as a 6-week-old puppy. Taking care of her for the past 7 years has been the greatest joy of my life. I love all animals and I’m very excited to take care of other dogs in need of care. I am gentle, attentive, perceptive, and extremely detailed and thorough. I won’t miss a thing! I’ve unfortunately had to help my pup through several health crises due to her chronic health conditions and I’m very familiar with emergency care. Being a rescue with behavioral issues, I am also very skilled at managing difficult behaviors such as food aggression. I look forward to supporting your fur baby! I am currently available for pet care any day, any time. I am new to Portland and still searching for full-time work. My only other priority is caring for my own dog as well. I am happy to care for your pets in your home, whether it’s a drop-in visit, a few hours, or an overnight stay. For overnight stays, I will also need to bring my chihuahua, who cooperates with dogs who are not aggressive towards her.

About: my entire life I've grew up with animals that I have loved and taken care of. I'd be so excited to take care of someone else's pets. I have a schedule that is not consistent, I have a full time job. I always work weekends. But that doesn't mean I cant stop by and check on them throughout the day but I won't be able to spend full days with them unless I'm off. but I can be there as much as I'm needed through the night. unfortunately I can not board any pets in my home. The other residents wouldnt appreciate that including the territorial cat and bulldogs who like to guard the house

“Madi is very friendly, personable and professional. Being new to the area and leaving our 2 anxious cats for the first time, Madi was patient to coax them out of hiding, feed and and care for them during her twice daily visits. She gave us detailed updates and pictures which helped ease our worries. We will definitely hire her again with confidence that our pets will be in her caring hands!”

“Cherie did an excellent job watching over our house and cat for 2 weeks. She really cared about the well being of our cat and put effort into building trust with her. Cherie went above and beyond by asking about additional things she could help out with around the house and even offering to stay later in case our flights were delayed. Would definitely book Cherie again!”

Paige B.

“My cats loved Joannie! The two of them usually run and hide but they came out for her and played with her too. Joannie did a great job and cared for my cats as if they were hers. I already rebooked!”

About: I started my first pet sitting business when I was just around 7-8 years old. I used to pet sit out here in the same area of Ruch. I grew up out here. As an adult now, with many of my own animals, I am now offering my services again. I rarely go anywhere because I do not like being away from home and my animals. I'm almost always available and close by (servicing only Ruch). I grew up with, and took care of, many kinds of animals; horses, donkeys, goats, dogs, cats, ferrets, birds, rabbits, etc. Being around animals gives me life and I love to help make animals feel special while their humans are away. It's already stressful for them, and for you too, so make it easier with someone who talks to them and makes sure that they feel special. I live at home with my hubby and he adored by every animal that meets him. He even stole my main doggy daycare client! Know when animals are here, they're cherished by both of us. I have my own small businesses that I can work on anytime I feel like it from home, which gives me great flexibility. I am available to take care of critters in the Ruch area almost any day, minus some appointments that I have sometimes. In my home: To protect my own cats and dogs, for day care, I need to ensure that your dog is friendly with my animals, vaccinated, and protected from fleas and ticks. Outside is fenced in with no climb fencing and acreage for roaming around our house, they get to let me know when they want to go outside, or come inside. My dogs knock on the door and tell me what they want (in or out). I'm sure they will teach your dog to do the same. When inside, we read, nap, cuddle on the couch, floor, in front of the wood stove, or in a crate if your dog desires. Outside, there are a couple of acres to run and explore. I spend all day tending to my dogs and can do this for yours too. For pet-sitting, where I come to your home, I would like to meet your pets ahead of time. I feel that it is important for them to meet me before you go away somewhere. I will follow your typical routine with feeding, potty breaks, play and cuddle time.

“Camille was really flexible and willing to roll with things as the timing for my trip changed a bit. She provided updates and photos and she had some great play sessions with my cats! Will definitely be having her back!”

About: Loving pet owner with 9 years of experience providing a safe, caring environment for a broad spectrum of animals. I grew up around and cared for pets as such as dogs, cats, fish, birds, gerbils, and even reptiles like snakes, lizards, and tortoises. Warm hearted and responsible, I've given pets and their humans peace of mind with consistent, mindful care. Presently, I'm working part time, so I'm available to watch over your furry, 4 legged kids any time from Monday through Friday and charge double to do so on the weekends starting at 5pm just because that's my busiest time of the week. I do charge $10 for the Meet & Greet just to cover gas expense. I don't have a yard right now so I would have to care for your lovable fur babies at your personal residence. I'm more than happy to do dog walks and play at the park.

About: Look, anyone can watch a pet. My thing? I actually listen. Seriously. My superpower is picking up on what animals are trying to tell me—be it a happy purr, a 'back off' bark, or a goat's casual bleat for attention. Being a digital nomad means my schedule is entirely my own, so I can truly be present and adapt to their needs, not some rigid clock. Playtime? Cuddles? Or just needing space? I read the room (or yard, or barn). I've got hands-on experience with everything from puppies to pigs, so your critters are always in genuinely attuned hands. This isn't just some gig; it's about making a real connection, deeply. As a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That means no rushing off to an office, no rigid 9-to-5, and definitely no 'squeezing in' pet time. I build my day around the animals I'm caring for. If a dog needs an extra walk, or a cat wants a sudden play session When I'm caring for your pets, my absolute focus is on maintaining their normal routine and comfort right there in their own space. I'm not just showing up to feed and split; I'm integrating into their lives. That means sticking to their feeding schedule, managing medications if needed, and keeping their environment exactly how you left it—clean, familiar, and totally stress-free. Here's the deal: as a digital nomad, my work goes where I go, and my schedule is completely my own. That translates directly into true presence for your pets. If I'm house sitting for you, your animals essentially become my co-workers. That means spontaneous play sessions, consistent outdoor time, and me being fully available. You'll get regular updates so you're never left wondering. Ultimately, it comes down to being attuned to their unique needs and ensuring they feel as comfortable, happy, and loved as they do with you, without ever having to leave their familiar surroundings.

“Olivia was fantastic with our shy Kitty. Amazingly she came out and really liked Olivia on the first day!!!! We will ask for Olivia’s help again and are more than satisfied.”

About: I've taken care of many dogs. I have trained puppies and also have experience with senior dogs. Very well versed in all things dog related. I currently own my own business and work for myself. So my schedule can be open anytime to fit the needs of my clients schedule. I have a fenced yard on 7.5 acres. I have one very friendly bordoodle and two cats. I am also very aware of dogs needs and keep a good eye on them.

“Diana watched our hound while we explored Oregon Caves. She was pleasant to work with and our dog loved her! We'd recommend Kiana to anyone.”

About: I have been caring for animals of ALL kinds since I was a small child. Animals seem to always gravitate towards me. I am a stay at home mom so I am almost always at home. I have taken care of older ill dogs, so am more than capable of administering medications or even therapeutic massage. I never use any toxic chemicals in or around my home as I have two small children and am extremely health conscious. I hike a lot so if you have an energetic dog, they would surely fit in around here :) I currently am a stay at home mom so caretaking comes very naturally for me. Both my children are HUGE animal lovers as well and they have always had a dog in their lives so from an early age they learned the proper ways to care for and respect animals. Your pet would get lots of attention here without overwhelming the animal as there is complete respect of for space one needs at any given time. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of leg room. I have an extremely friendly borderdoodle and a playful kitty that I share space with. I love to walk in the woods, go to parks, and even walk around the neighborhood often. There is a park walkable distance so I frequently go there to let Bruno off leash so he can chase a ball. I maintain a clean home with only natural non toxic products and good old fashion vinegar water . I always have a huge stock of naturally healthy dog treats on deck as well. I currently work from home and stay home with my youngest daughter. So your pet will always be with someone and will have access to the yard at any time they need to go out. As well having a huge basket of dog toys to explore :) I have a fenced in yard and have 2 fur babies. One being canine the other a friendly feline. They are both extremely friendly. The animals are always allowed to roam freely throughout the house and backyard.

“What an AMAZING pet sitter. We had something come up and she was able to meet us and our cat right away! She took such good care of our fur baby while we were gone and she sent updates and pictures and asked questions. I would trust her in my house any time to watch my animals! Thank you again, Toshyauna! You’re a life saver!”
