Pet Sitting in Oregon City

About: What truly sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. Each pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I make it a priority to follow that closely so they feel safe and relaxed. I’m especially skilled in caring for puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I focus on gentle training reinforcement, leash manners, potty routines, and positive behavior support using patience and consistency. For senior pets, I provide calm, attentive care, respect mobility limitations, and closely monitor comfort, medications, and changes in behavior. I’m very observant and proactive, which helps me catch small changes before they become bigger concerns. Clear communication is also important to me. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so pet parents always feel informed and reassured. Above all, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal isn’t just to “watch” your pet, but to build trust, maintain routines, and make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Im currently doing online college classes, so I have time and flexibility to care for your pups! I can be home most of the time with them to care for them. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I respect the home and the pet’s space, making sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment, along with regular updates and photos, so pet parents feel connected and reassured.

“Emily G. is fantastic! She cared for our pittie like she was her own pup. Emily sent us wonderful photos of playing with Roxy, and every meal and walk as well. She was always on time and whenever we came home after Emily had visited, we could tell Roxy was very happy. Roxy is a reactive dog, she is afraid of small animals and very afraid of dogs, and Emily G. was happy to take on this extra work. This means she walked Roxy and when she saw an animal would redirect with treats. Basically Emily helped us train Roxy! I cannot recommend her enough.”

If your pet needs any special attention or meds please let me know and I am happy to accommodate! Your pet will receive lots of personal attention, without a doubt! Please consider us for your pet care needs!

“Bonnie is fantastic! She understood the needs of our dog, kept a firm, calm, and consistent presence allowing our super anxious dog to feel comforted while we were away. It was the first time we could actually leave our dog with someone and enjoy our vacation. We had peace of mind that Maka was in great hands with Bonnie. The Rover cards also helped us to know how our pup was behaving as time went on. Thank you so much, Bonnie!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. More specifically, I grew up in the pet grooming, industry, and my mother had me starting to bathe the dogs for her at the age of 10. I did this on many weekends throughout school and summer. This is when I was taught dog body language and how to gently handle even the most nervous pups. When I was 21 she taught me to groom dogs and I have been doing it ever since. Throughout the years of 2020 and 2025 I owned an operated my own successful dog grooming business, which I built from the ground up. In 2025 I decided to sell that business to one of my employees, and I am now working for her. I have also babysat many friends animals throughout the years and have become a trusted source. I would now like to expand my skills to wider customer base. I want to make sure that your dogs are safe and happy while you’re away. I am comfortable with all breeds and all ages. If you have an older dog that needs more consistent check-in, I am happy to accommodate. I have a part-time job with very flexible scheduling, so I will be available most times for your pet during the week. If there is a scheduling for conflict, I will make sure to address that immediately. I will be coming to your home to babysit. I am very clean and respectful of peoples space and will only be in the required area to take care of your dog or cat.

“Erin was a lifesaver when our pet care fell through for our recent vacation. She was amazing with our dog who is usually a little slow to warm to people, and gave us update as to how he and our cat were doing while we were away. Couldn’t recommend Erin enough!”

Laura T.

“10/10! Allie was everything we wanted and more! Our pups warmed right up and really enjoyed her company. Very thorough with details and easy communication. We will definitely schedule with her again in the future when needed. Highly Recommend!!”

“Kat is always eager to help to check in on my cat Hank, and is very timely and communicative. It's a great feeling to know that I can rely on her when I'm out of town.”

Matt H.

“Thomas has completed three drop-ins with my two rambunctious pups, fed them, walked them, and played with them. They are both happy and healthy.”

Benjamin L.

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

Tamara K.

“If you are worried about leaving your dog, the best thing you’ll ever do is ask Liz to care for her! My 14 yr old pit, who needs meds and diapers and lots of “extras” was spoiled and got so much love while I was gone for a week. She sent plenty of texts and pictures daily and answered all my questions immediately. There’s just not enough room here to express how much Liz means to me. As long as she’s doing this, she will be the one for my girl!!”

I am able to spent the night at peoples houses and change my schedules to fit the dogs needs. I am able to do anything that fits the owners needs. I make sure to watch the dogs often and give them attention they need.

About: I have over 23 years of owning and caring for pets (mainly dogs and cats). I love both cats and dogs equally - however, dogs are more fun to play with:) 1 I currently have 5 pets in my family (but only 1 live with me:) - 2 golden retrievers (one is my older brother's and the other is my parent's - I watch them both regularly), 1 chow/husky mix, 1 Australian Sheppard and 1 dachshund (these are my younger brother's dogs). I love going on long walks and taking dogs with me - when I am at home, I love having my pets (and pet guests) sit with me - I enjoy keeping them company and spending time with them. I am experienced with dog walking (from small dogs to 100+ pound dogs), washing both cats and dogs, providing basic medical treatment, and making them feel comfortable and at home. I am a kind and strong individual that will treat your pet as my own. I work from home so they will get to spend a lot of time with me:) I work from home so your pet will never be alone while with me. I also live very close to 2 parks (both within 5 minutes walking distance) that are fenced in as well. The neighborhood I live in is good for walking dogs because it is OFF the main road and safe. I also have a well fenced in back yard for them to hang out in with me. I have a well fenced and big back yard that is safe. The home is 2000 square feet, split level and plenty of room for your pet to hang out with me or roam safely as they please (we pet proof the home).

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, having cats growing up and later volunteering with dogs at rescue orgs. My time as a training class assistant for Puppy Manners and New Dog Basics at the San Francisco SPCA gave me valuable skills in positive reinforcement training, socialization, and handling dogs of all temperaments. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience with horses, having owned and leased several. I’m comfortable with feeding, turnout, mucking stalls, brushing, and general equine care, making me a well-rounded caregiver for multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to care for pets at all life stages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra patience and comfort. Whether it’s structured walks, reinforcing good manners, or providing a calm and loving presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of pet behavior across species and a passion for ensuring their happiness and well-being, I go beyond basic care to provide engaging, enriching, and compassionate pet companionship. After our Husky mix’s TPLO surgery in Fall 2024, I’ve decided to make pet care my main focus. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and this shift allows me to dedicate my time and energy to providing top-quality care for pets in my community. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and customized care based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding and playtime, or extra TLC for pets recovering from surgery, I tailor my services to fit both routine and special care requirements. My experience with dogs, cats, and even horses means I’m comfortable handling a variety of schedules—from structured training sessions to free-spirited outdoor adventures. No matter the time of day, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my clients’ homes. At my home, we have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and spacious area for dogs to play and explore. Your pup will also have built-in companionship with our two friendly dogs, ensuring plenty of socialization and fun. For exercise and enrichment, we have scenic trails nearby, perfect for peaceful walks in the woods—giving dogs a chance to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s unique routine and environment, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether it’s reinforcing training, maintaining feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm presence while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. No matter the setting, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and enriching experience for pets—so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.
