Dog Sitting in Oregon

“Natalie was fantastic with my boys! I booked very last minute because my other sitter fell through, and she was wonderfully accommodating. Very happy with the experience!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life! I'm familiar with dogs of various sizes and ages, and enjoy spending time outside or inside playing with them. My own dog, Chloe, is a 13 year old little diva that keeps me on my toes. She has 3 pills twice a day and is spoiled with treats throughout the day. Although I have little "formal" dog care experience, I have interacted with dogs with many different personalities. I'm definitely not afraid to have to throw a chuck-it for an entire visit or walk a couple miles. The black lab I have sitted for in the past is very treat motivated for walks and needs to be convinced to go in the right direction. I will be writing my Master's thesis this summer, so I am extremely flexible with when I'll be able to visit and go for walks! This is a way to have some fun with dogs and take a break from reading literature and writing lots of pages! When completing visits and picking up for walks, I will make sure that I am on time and I enter the residence calmly and slowly, especially for the first time! When in your home, I will only use what you ask me to, and not go in any rooms not approved. I'm there to play with your pup, not have a tour - it's your personal space. If your dog is crated, I will make sure that they return to the crate before leaving. I will make sure to double check that doors are properly locked again before leaving. For walks, I'll go whatever route your pup is most used to. I know switching it up isn't ideal for some dogs - my dog, Chloe has only one route she will walk in our neighborhood. I'll let your dogs set the pace, and sniff all the smells! That's how pups see the world! I'm not afraid to walk in rain, but of course, storms are a no-go. I'll make sure that I have a water bowl and bottle for your pup, especially as it gets warm this summer.

“Ann took good care of my two cats while I was away! My energetic cat had fun playing and my super shy cat miraculously came out of hiding to say hello!!”

“Marcia did a great job caring for our pets. She had to do some problem solving with a door lock issue and a hiding dog and all was figured out.”

Claire M.

“Jolie was great with my three dogs. They clearly enjoyed her visits with her and she sent me lots of pictures. Followed all the notes I left and I felt very confident and comfortable with her caring for my pack.”

About: I’ve cared for young all the way to senior pets. Whether they’ve been friend’s or family’s, I love them all. I love both the activity & also the more relaxed moments with fur babies! I work from home, and can be fairly flexible on when I take my midday break (dependent on meetings). I like to start around 7/7:30 & my day wraps up around 3:30/4. I can provide cares anywhere around that schedule on a regular week. Since I have my own cat, I would prefer to care for pets in other’s homes. I am respectful of everyone’s (pet included) space, & take the time necessary to build trust & foster a safe environment.

“Mallory was reliable and great with our cat!”

About: Just getting started on Rover! I’d love to become your go-to, reliable pet sitter :) I’ve been a cat owner for 15+ years, and I’ve had experience dog sitting and caring for dogs for 4+ years. Willing to provide any care necessary for you pets including feeding, walks, providing medication, etc. I work as a full time School Psychologist, so during the academic year, I have late afternoon/evening and weekend availability. In the summer, I don’t work, so I have full availability! I have two cats of my own, so I would prefer to care for your pets in your home. Willing to stay at your home if needed.

“James was wonderful with our senior kitty Mocha! He showed so much care for her when he met her, and he took care of her special routine needs. He was incredibly timely even on a big holiday. We felt so at ease and we will certainly book again! :)”

“Isabel is extremely reliable and patient with our new puppy. She comes over when she says she’ll come, and she takes lots of pictures and notes during her visit, which we really appreciate. She plays with our dog inside and outside and makes sure he gets some good attention while we’re away at work. Would highly recommend her!”

Jennifer V.

“Nina is the kindest pet care giver I could hope for!! She's also very caring about our family as a whole. She's prompt in responses as well, which I truly appreciate!”

“Elizabeth was a life saver! She did such an amazing job with our dog who can be a bit of a handful! Very professional and cared for Stella like she was her own, I was really nervous leaving her with someone new for the first time and Elizabeth put our minds at ease. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Jackie is absolutely amazing. She loves our pup, is an equal partner in raising the puppy. She is always on time, always provides updates through the app with pictures. Very very reliable and always available when we need her. She genuinely cares for our puppy and would go to the extra mile to ensure the puppy gets the best care.”

About: Lifelong pet owner and experienced sitter! Having managed a multi-pet household (3 dogs, 2 cats), I’m an expert at maintaining routines, administering care, and ensuring every pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. All of my pets were specific in their needs and that individualized care is the best route. Pet sitting turned into a side hustle during college, and I loved it so much that I continued to balance it in my schedule after I graduated. As a teacher, I bring patience and organization to every visit, ensuring your furry family members get the care they deserve. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy puppy play to the specific boundaries of a senior cat. Before the school year comes to a close on June 5th, I will only be able to care for a pet before 7:30am and after 4pm. Once I finish up with teaching classes, I will have a very flexible schedule to help out whenever needed! I treat your home with the utmost respect and your pets with the deepest affection. My goal is to maintain their familiar routines in their own sanctuary, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease until you return.

“Justin stopped in to feed our cats a couple times over a weekend. when we returned, the cats seemed completely un-phased by our absence, which is always great! We will definitely reach out to Justin again.”

“My cat is very skittish, and Sierra did a great job meeting him where he's at!! She took care of him and sent pictures while respecting his space :) I'll definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11, have helped out friends and family and coworkers on long vacations; and, eventually, I adopted and trained a dog of my own from Fetch (local foster rescue here in Madison!). I love dogs deeply, and I love walks almost as much! I’ve worked long hours most of my student and adult life, so I understand how important it is to have someone that cares for your pet as much as you while you’re away. Whether it’s work, family/friends, sabbatical/vacation, or a break for solo time, I get how important the routine and schedule is for your pet. Or to have someone you trust step up for a brief period of time while you’re busy. Whether they need snuggles, long walks, or even runs, I’d be overjoyed to take care of your loved one. Their world is only as big as we make it, so it’s a privilege to help expand theirs with lots to sniff and see! I’m currently not working while I focus on my health and family, so I am able to help with your midday, or evening, walks M-F. In your home, I can pop in and out for the walk: I have plenty of poop bags and treats to spare so no need to provide those. I do ask for a leash and/or harness to be provided as these are specific to each dog, and I want them to have the best fit.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up with dogs, which taught me the importance of routine, exercise, and lots of love. Now I’m a proud cat owner of two, so I also understand how to care for more independent (but equally lovable!) pets. Whether your pet loves to play or just needs a calm, reassuring presence, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel at home. I work full time at UW Madison during regular business hours between 7:30a and 4:30p. I have a flexible schedule where I work from home twice weekly and at work 3 days. I care for your pets and your home as if it were my own. I treat the pets with the upmost love and care, and respect your home and privacy. I play with the pets if they are interested, and leave them be if not interested. Pets have bodily autonomy and I respect that. I’ll clean up a mess if I find one, and I’d let you know immediately if there’s an issue.

“Heather is a blessing to my dog family! One of the most compassionate, understanding and knowledgeable humans I’ve had the pleasure of coming across in a long time. She respects each of my four dogs in their own way, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch over them while I’m away. Thank you Heather, you have no idea how stressful and unbearable it was without meeting you. I appreciate everything you do!”

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and currently have one. I additionally watch my friend’s and neighbors dogs occasionally. My family and I also fostered dogs for 2 years which made me find my love for all breeds of dogs. I am currently working a part time job but I am very flexible and will make time for your dogs. I also have a couple weeks left of school but I am available in the evening. I would love to take your dogs for a walk in your neighborhood or use my vehicle (with a clean record) and go to the dog park to socialize. I am able to spend time playing or cuddling with your pup in your home and feed them if needed!
