Dog Sitting Oregon City

“Arian is such a great cat lover and caretaker!! I felt completely at ease leaving her my keys for drop ins to my place, and from the looks of the photos and videos my cats will honestly miss her once I’m home! Fantastic experience.”

About: I have had pets in my family ever since I can remember. We have had all types of pets from fish and lizards to cats and dogs and lots of others in between. However, there has almost always been a dog in the house. I have experience training dogs and puppies and use lots of positive reinforcement. I have three dogs of my own. More than one person has called me "The Dog Whisperer"! I try to stay active but often need the motivation. What better way to get some exercise and fresh air than providing the same for man's best friend? I have a flexible schedule and am looking forward to making more four-legged friends. I live in a home on 4+ acres so there is plenty of space for your pup to explore and investigate. There are a number of parks in the nearby area where I like to go and am always looking for new dog-friendly places. There are 8 dogs who live here, three of which are my own (most of the dogs are large breeds). Three of the dogs typically keep to themselves and the other three are fun, energetic besties who love to play. All household members are dog lovers and dog owners.

“Margaret is fantastic with my puppy! Always right on time for the check-in and sends the CUTEST photos with a detailed update. It really put my mind at ease knowing my pup was in good hands while I’m at work. Highly professional and clearly a dog lover—I’ll definitely be booking them again!!”

“Parrish was a great communicator! She made sure to reach out prior to watching our cat for a video call, took notes, was attentive and thoughtful, and kept me updated.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Summer checking in and visiting my young and shy kitty Casper! She was always on time or early, and her communication was and is excellent. She sent updates with pictures and videos, and I had total peace of mind knowing Casper was in good hands while I was away. She is so wonderful, she brought little gifts and treats for Casper! I trust and recommend Summer, and I would definitely book her again in the future! 🫶🏼”

“Carolyn is very attentive to my pet and has done a great job with drop ins, especially since my pet was 2 days list op from being neutered and not feeling his best self. I appreciate how caring she is and attentive to his needs.”

About: With over two decades of animal care experience, my journey began as a child caring for our family's English Springer Spaniels and cats, where I discovered my natural affinity for animals. This early passion made me the go-to caretaker for classroom pets throughout my school years. As an adult, I've owned several dogs, including a beloved Boxer who shared 10 wonderful years with me, and currently care for two rescue dogs - a Labrador Mix and a Pit Bull Terrier Mix. Through my extensive volunteer work at a local dog shelter since 2021, I manage the daily care and cleaning for up to 25 dogs, many with complex medical needs or behavioral challenges. My professional pet sitting experience spans over three years with private clients, and I've developed expertise in handling medium to large breeds with high energy and prey drive. I'm equally comfortable caring for shy and timid smaller breeds, reactive dogs, and senior pets requiring medication. My feline experience includes managing a Maine Coon cattery of 10-20 cats, and I've cared for cats in all life stages, from newborn kittens to pregnant mothers. Beyond cats and dogs, my animal care expertise extends to reptiles, aquarium maintenance, and farm animals including chickens, goats, and horses. I've also managed large populations of show rabbits, sometimes exceeding 100 animals. I'm comfortable administering medications to all species and have extensive experience managing special needs pets. My clients receive focused, individual attention as I do not combine pet sitting assignments. I currently work full-time Monday - Friday (7 am-3 pm). I also volunteer on Sundays (7 am-11 am). I’m open to weekday availability as long as the pet owner is aware of my work and volunteer schedule. As your dedicated pet sitter, I believe in providing comprehensive care that goes beyond the basics. During my visits, your pets will receive personalized attention through engaging playtime, appropriate exercise, and mental enrichment activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. I follow your detailed feeding instructions carefully and maintain clean food and water dishes throughout my stay. Understanding your pet's dietary needs is essential - I'll note their treat allowance and any food or environmental allergies to ensure their safety and well-being. Getting to know your pet's unique personality, quirks, and daily routines is a priority for me. I take time to understand their comfort levels, favorite activities, and any special requirements they may have. My goal is to create a stress-free environment where your pets feel secure and content in your absence. Housekeeping is equally important - I take pride in maintaining a clean environment and will ensure your home is in pristine condition upon your return. As part of my service, I'm happy to handle additional tasks such as watering indoor and outdoor plants, collecting mail, and managing trash bins. Your peace of mind is my top priority, both for your pets and your home.

“Kate was great. We booked a 60 min drop in and she left them all tired out and gave them Kongs on her way out the door. We plan on rebooking with her soon.”

About: I have grown up with a dog in my home as well as have been around lots of pets! Have 3 cat fur babies of my own that I adore, love dogs as well! Currently working 4, 10 hour shifts as a medical assistant so am available 3 whole days a week 2 of the days being Saturday and Sunday and my day off varies weekly but I know what days I have off each week through the end of the year I will make sure each gets play time as well as walk time across the way we have a dog park and lots of place to run!

About: I have been a professional pet-sitter for over 20 years. I believe pets are not just companions, but family members. I grew up with a cat and a dog, and a dream about one day having my own horse. I am originally from Wisconsin, where the seed for working with animals began in middle school while volunteering at the local Humane Society. I have volunteered for animal organizations on and off ever since (that's one of my foster pups in my profile photo!). I am also a writer/editor, outdoor lover, yoga practitioner, and blues/swing dancer. I spend the majority of the day at home with your pet(s), and love to go on walks and play frisbee/ball in the yard. I'm also a sucker for cuddling on the couch. I look forward to spoiling your loved ones while you are away! I work from home as a writer/editor, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I love going on daily walks. I treat your pet(s) and your home as if they were my own. I am a homeowner myself and know how to responsibly care for a home. When boarding your pet, I love to play frisbee/ball in my fully-fenced backyard with a 6-ft fence.

“Julie was so great with my two little dogs. Nice, courteous, timely. They took to her quickly!”

“Allison was absolutely FANTASTIC with Ollie. I love the communication and actually working with Ollie on his walks and manners. Would 10/10 recommend and will be booking with her again!”

“Once again Roxy did a fantastic sit for our Rotor boy. Roxy is so easy to work with and always follows up with our needs.”

About: I want to hang out with dogs! I have a 3 year old golden retriever, a cat and a tortoise. You can definitely tell that we love taking care of pets! I am looking to change up my schedule, so it is likely that most of the time I will be available every week day in the morning until about 2 in the afternoon! In my home, we walk a lot! Our dog is high energy and doesn’t really get tired from exercise. We take her on long hikes often but she usually will want to play after! I hope to be able to provide some of that same excitement with your puppy, and replicate the amazing experience I’ve had on the app as a client!

“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”

“Liz did a wonderful job providing three days of drop-in visits for my two large dogs. She gave them excellent care, despite one of the dogs being hesitant to welcome new humans into the house! I recommend Liz's services and will definitely check back again for future visits!”

About: Veterinary assistant background, I am willing and able to do medication drop ins, feedings, and walks. I can do daytime sitting as well and my capacity for that may open up later. I have worked with disabled, and anxious dogs and cats and am fairly comfortable with most personality types. I have worked with professional trainers through my prior veterinary employment and am able to assist with basic training reinforcement. I am currently in a program so I have a lot of open availability, mostly daytime hours. I am available for dog walks, and drop ins, feedings/meds. I can do pet sitting for up to 6 hours at a time. I cannot do overnights becaus either have animals of my own, and I dont currently offer boarding due to my dog having a reactive nature. I have a lot of experience with animal handling and safety protocols. Leaving a pet in the care of a stranger can be nerve wracking. I treat every pet as I would my own. I will adapt to whatever care instructions are required when caring for each pet.

“Ella took fabulous care of our cats and dogs while we were out of town. Everyone was happy and healthy on our return and we would happily have her pet sit again in the future”

“Nicole cared for my rabbits and guinea pigs for two separate times. One was during my younger sisters unexpected funeral. She took great care of my exotic pets, keeping them fed and with clean water and clean cages and potty areas. Plus gave them loves and attention. It was nice to focus on being out of town, without worrying about my pets well-being. It was nice to come home and not have to scramble to care for the pets after a long flight. She is great with all animals with keeping them fed and cared for as well as giving medications. She sends pictures every day of your pets, and she does not give too little or too much communication... just the right amount so you can focus on being away. I will hire her again definitely in the future for my babies which are my rabbits”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats and rabbits I’ve always truly loved animals and spending time with them, taking care of them, giving them all the love and attention they need/deserve. Mainly throughout the years I’ve taken care of cats more and sometimes a few dogs. I’m more fond of cats and know how to give them what they need and when they need space or food I can understand quickly. I’m always happy to care for dogs though especially since it’s fun to go on walks, have playtime with them. I will try my best to make sure every pet feels safe, content and happy with me I currently work part time at the Moda Center and it’s but only twice or once a week so I have most days off and so much free time so I really want to keep busy as much as possible and help people out in the process! I’d like to say I’m an observant person and very caring aswell, I tend to check in a lot even if it’s not needed and keeping track of when pets need to be let out, feed, given medication, any of the sorts im right on time. I also give pets time to adjust to me before jumping into touching them, I like to let them come to me first to make them feel comfortable if they are shy. If they are messy i don’t mind cleaning up a mess/cleaning up poop/pee
