About: I’ve had pets my whole life (18 years!), so being around animals just comes naturally to me. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—from chihuahuas and shitzus to corgis, huskies, Australian cattle dogs, bullies, and cats—so I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I love to keep up with high energy dogs who love to endlessly play, while I'm also just as patient and gentle with dogs who just want to sit back and relax! I have experience with senior dogs so I understand the extra attention and care they need. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m a high school student with a pretty flexible schedule, so I have lots of free time to dedicate to pet care. Since I already love going on walks, taking dogs out for exercise and fresh air fits perfectly into my daily routine. Pet care is something I naturally make time for—I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’m reliable and happy to adjust my schedule to make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific preferences—so pets feel comfortable in their own environment. I’m very mindful of safety, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. I also pay attention to their behavior and mood so I can respond quickly if anything seems off. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized while I’m there. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can feel confident and at ease knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Theresa is awesome! The perfect person to look after our cat while we were away. She was very thorough and did a great job giving the cat attention.”

“Eliza did an amazing job watching our pups! She kept us updated and informed regularly throughout the weekend, did a great job keeping our pups loved and cared for, and was flexible and helpful in accommodating our plans. Definitely would recommend!”

Danica K.

“Emma is fabulous! She is punctual, communicative, and amazing with my cats. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my cats are well cared for by Emma while I am away.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities! I have a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd, so I know firsthand what it takes to care for a high-energy, crazy dog of my own! I’ve worked through training challenges and reactivity after he experienced a traumatic event as a puppy. Because of that, I have a lot of patience and empathy, especially with pups who need a little extra attention or structure. I also have two sweet cats at home and grew up around animals my whole life, so I’m totally comfortable with multi-pet households. Friends and family often trust me to care for their pets when they’re away, and I always make sure to stick to routines and give pets the love and attention they need while their humans are gone. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog who needs a gentler pace, or a cat who likes their own space, I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, I already spend a lot of time walking, playing with, and caring for my own Aussie, so I love adding more furry friends to the mix! I’m off on weekends, work from home on Tuesdays, and my weekday schedule is generally flexible. I’m typically at work from 9–5, but if that’s too long for your pet to be alone, just let me know! I’m more than happy to flex my schedule when I can to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I’m more than happy to follow any instructions you provide, down to the smallest detail, so your pets can stick to the routines they know and love. Whether it’s special feeding, medications, or just the way they like to be tucked in at night, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and cared for. In your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I want both you and your pet to feel at ease, knowing they’re in loving hands. I’ll keep you updated along the way so you never have to wonder how things are going, just a little extra peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hiya! I’m a newer resident of the Portland area with a longtime background of caring for pets of friends and family hoping to fill a need in you and your pet’s lives. I love going on longer walks/excursions with dogs but also love just spending time in the neighborhood. I’m currently a part time post grad student looking to do some pet care during the day on weekdays, I can do weekends but mostly I’m looking for people wanting and needing pet time during their day to day work schedules when they can’t get home. I’m hoping to be as seamless into your life and schedule as possible. That means being in your house minimally, keeping you updated on times but not too buggy, keeping pets watered, and being in and out.

“Adara is very professional, friendly, and reassuring — a fabulous set of qualities for just what we needed: a reliable cat-friend to check up on two different kitties. 1000% will book again!”

“Natalie did great, and the dogs loved her. She took great care of my dogs and gave me the peace of mind that they would be well taken care of. I would definitely book again.”

About: I've grown up in a dog house since I was little, and have always loved taking care of animals. Growing up I took care of our dogs, cat, frog, and my never ending bug farms. I've been the go to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family especially in high school. I've taken care of dogs both big, small, and everything in between. I also am good with dogs of all ages and am currently raising my little five month old terrier son so the puppy routine is already drilled in! I've taken care of many elderly dogs with various medical conditions, although each one is unique. If you have a dog with special needs please reach out with details and I will let you know if I'm confident I can accommodate them! I'm always happy to work with a little high energy trouble maker as I had a husky mutt growing up who gave me a real run for my money. If you need someone to take your dog on a walk/run that will knock them out if even for a little bit I'm happy to provide that relief! Additionally I also spent 6 years in a herpetology club which involved taking care of turtles, tortoises, snakes, lizards, frogs, toads, salamanders, and even hissing cockroaches. If you need someone to check in and make sure both their space (heat lamps, food, water, filters, tanks, etc.) and themselves are taken care of I would be very happy to meet some scaly friends. My schedule is fairly flexible as I do scheduled service work. Afternoon visits are when I'd be best available and I'm always happy to help on the weekends! Wether it's a play partner, someone who mysteriously brings snacks and food, or just keeping them company I'd be happy your family happy. I'm more than ready to give a high energy dog some good running in as well!

“Emily took great care of our cats and chickens! Our cats are 18 years old and require medications twice a day. She sent notes (via Rover cards) after every visit and also sent us many photos. This gave us such peace of mind and heart. Thank you, Emily!”

Sue H.

“Rylee was great with my cats. She was able to give one of them his daily meds. She kept me updated and sent me lots of pictures. I would book with her again!”

Emma C.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs from ages 4 months to 12 years! I like to learn each animals needs and modify my care for them! I work three days a week and keep an open schedule to care for others’ animals the other four days in the week! I have a flexible schedule and can even help on the days I am scheduled at my main job! I always ask for your preferences for your animals! Whether this includes walk length, treats and food, and even mannerisms, I always want to make sure YOU and your animals are comfortable!

“Leor was fantastic!”

Adam W.

“Sarah checked in on my pugs! She took good care of them and sent videos and photos. ☺️”

Amanda Z.

“I'm glad I found Rylie to care for my pet cat, bean. She was patient with her and helped her warm up to her gradually. Thank you so much for caring for her and being really accommodating with my requests.”

About: Animals have always been a major part of my life. Along with years of caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, I worked at a professional pet boarding facility that partnered closely with a veterinarian. This experience gave me hands-on training in proper animal handling, health monitoring, medication administration, feeding routines, recognizing signs of illness or distress, and providing individualized care for animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, high-energy dogs, cats, and animals with special needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to my pet care experience, I have helped care for animals on family farms and am comfortable working with livestock and farm animals. I understand the importance of maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring animal well-being, and providing dependable daily care. I am also experienced with administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic pets, and comfortable caring for pets with special medical needs. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, medication, extra attention, or simply a trustworthy companion while you’re away, I will treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care that gives owners complete peace of mind. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine and provide the attention they deserve. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated along the way. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, loved, and understood. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine and provide consistent care that keeps them comfortable and happy. We have a gated dog park in my apartment community for safe exercise and playtime, and all outdoor activities are closely supervised. I follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and special needs, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos throughout their stay.
