Availability
As a teacher, I work 8hr days Monday-Friday during the school year. I have a car and I am typically no more than a 30 minute drive from anywhere in the greater Portland area. On weekends and during school vacations I am able to stay at your home during the day if your pets require full-time care or need breaks every few hours.

Safety, trust & environment
Whatever your pet’s needs are, I am happy to comply- whether it’s special feeding arrangements, medication schedules, or training requirements. For outdoorsy dogs I love putting on some headphones and going on long walks, or trips to the local dog park. For indoor critters I love engaging with them using their favorite toys, or snagging some lazy snuggles on the couch (or bed if they’re allowed). Every creature has their own personality, and I love figuring them out in a calm and patient way so we can develop a mutually enjoyable relationship together. This is very similar to how I engage with students! I prefer staying in the animals’ homes, but if boarding with me is necessary I live in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment without animals or roommates that can accommodate even critters who are not crate trained. Although I don’t have a yard I live in a quiet, residential area that’s great to walk around, PLUS I love taking field trips in my Subaru to different parks or hikes.

Pet care experience
I grew up with many pets in my household-I even went to a summer camp for years hosted by the SPCA. For over 25 years now I’ve relied on positive word-of-mouth recommendations to meet new families who trust me with their precious pets- especially since I’m experienced with administering many forms of medication (including intravenously), and prefer to stay at an animals home so they’re more comfortable. I’ve had the pleasure of watching many different breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs and cats, as well as more exotic pets like rats, birds, lizards, hedgehogs, and more. I’m a state certified teacher who loves the company of animals after a long day surrounded by 30+ rambunctious teenagers. I can’t wait to meet your zoo and lavish them with care and love in your absence!
Cat care experience
Devon also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Devon was the only dog sitter we had for our Rottweiler Sally. She loved her like she was her own and gave us the peace of mind in knowing everything was great while we were away. We could go on vacation and relax without having to worry at all. Devon is super reliable, communicative, and absolutely loves all furry buddies. She's a great sitter. Highly recommend.
