“Jeff was fantastic with the Whippets, always went above and beyond the time limit of the daily walks. Much appreciate the help during the two weeks vacation, it was very comforting not to worry about the dogs. Thank you!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities! I have personally helped with feeding, potty breaks, bathing, playtime, and giving lots of love and attention! More recently, I have helped care for an energetic Australian Shepherd and a senior Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, adapting my care to each dog's individual needs and personality. I make sure all types of dogs feel safe, happy, and well cared for. As a college student, my schedule varies throughout the week depending on my classes and other commitments. I’m usually more flexible for dog walks, especially around my class schedule, and I love having the opportunity to get outside and spend time with dogs! I have more limited availability for longer house sits and check-ins during the week, but I’m happy to work with owners in advance to find times that fit both of our schedules. I do not currently offer pet care services in my own home. I prefer to care for pets in their own homes, where they are already familiar with their surroundings and feel safest and most comfortable. I will follow each pet's usual routine and their owner's instructions closely, while providing plenty of supervision. I want every pet and their owner to feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and been comfortable with them all my life. I love dogs and recently dog sat for my parents and their 2 older dogs for 3 weeks. Currently I am at home for summer before going back to school in September. My schedule is pretty open with lots of free time throughout the day. I generally start my day by greeting the dogs and feeding them before checking to make sure they have water. With my older dogs who need their medication I’ll bury it in their food to make sure they eat it. Later on I’ll take them out on a walk to get their exercise. When we get back I’ll give them a treat and some pets before going on to whatever else I need to do.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and I started dog sitting older dogs before my family got our current dog in 2020. I take care of my puppy and have continued pet sitting for family and friends for the last 6 years. The pets I have taken care of include dogs, cats, fish, and a gecko. I work part time right now and I recently moved so I am missing my puppy and need and outlet for my love of animals. I am patient and a quick learner. I am also not a risk taker when it comes to other people’s pets. I will take care of your pet exactly how you want me to and I will obvious give them lots of love and keep them company.
About: I have always loved animals! I have grown up with dogs and cats in my house my whole life and cared for them. I have dog sat, taken dogs on walks, volunteered at shelters, etc!

About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and have worked with dogs from energetic puppies to older dogs that need more care and other medications. I’ve also been a dog and cat sitter for my neighbors. I am currently a junior in college so my schedule can be busy but I can usually make room every few hours in between and after classes I also work a couple nights a week but anywhere in between I’m pretty flexible. I cannot house any dogs in my home overnight, but if needed I can have them over during the day! I can give regular potty breaks and necessary walks when needed. Since I am a student full time I cannot travel further the 20-30 minutes during the week and up to an hour on weekends.
About: I've been around dogs intermittently, ranging from small to large, lazy to active, and administered medicine to elderly dogs as well. I understand that every dog is different and will do my very best to accommodate to each and every dog I take care of. I have a very open availability, I'm only away for ~10hrs spread out between two days during the weekdays. I can pop for however long or stay for a couple of hours! Whatever the pet needs I can provide. I keep a watchful, attentive eye on the pets I care for. I give them my full attention when playing with them, and whenever they ask for attention.

About: I've lived with my dog, Avery, for about 10 years back home, have cared for family friends' dogs when needed, have participated in fetch-a-friend multiple times with Heartland Humane Shelter, and I am very comfortable around cats as well. I can provide a very active few days running or walking for your pets, or I can keep them homely company while you are away. Since I have a car, if desired, I can take your pets to the park or just on short car rides. If your pets have any medications required, or specific eating/dosage times, I will make sure to set alarms to stay on time and dependable. My main job right now is DoorDash, so any time you need me to be available is free. My schedule can allow for week-long petcare, if needed, or just a short walk :3 I try my best to be friendly, understanding, and patient with any pets I interact with; if a pet is trying to tell me something, I will pay my best attention! Additionally, if a pet needs some space while adjusting to me or the lack of usual people around, I can provide that space while still keeping an eye on them.

About: I bond easily with cats and dogs. I am gentle, patient and give 100% to all the fur babies in my care. I enjoy entertaining and caring for these special critters. While with me, I am observant and provide the kind of interaction the pet wants. This could be anything from a massage to hiking and play at a beach with a variety of toys. I always want your pet to feel warm and welcome. I believe walking is the best medicine, so I’m game to go out no matter the weather. I don’t feed people food to them but am happy to give appropriate treats and lots of praise. I have been taking care dogs for 15 years. Dogs are considered my family bond
About: Hello! I attend OSU as a graduate student and live locally in Corvallis. I’ve always grown up around animals and with dogs, and I’m missing having my own so much! I love spending time with dogs and have experience with many different breeds and ages, as well as positive reinforcement training techniques. Since I work full time mostly from home, so I’m able to spent a lot of quality time with your pets during the daytime and in the evenings after work. I like to stay active and go on walks often as well, and dogsitting is a perfect way to get more walks in! I’m not allowed to have pets at my house, but can stay at your house and help with other house sitting duties while I’m there (plant watering, etc.)
About: I'm a quiet, mature professional who works from clients' homes during the day and loves spending quiet evenings with pets. I'm an especially good fit for animals who are used to lots of companionship, including those with retired or remote-working families.

I work remotely and have flexibility for morning and evening walks, as well as daytime cuddles and play breaks. I coordinate with clients to ensure pet care is continuous, even if a return flight is delayed. I gather as much information as possible about an animal's routine, preferences, play styles or favorite games, and emotional and physical needs. I keep my client updated with photos and messages about their animal at the frequency they prefer, so they feel comfortable and confident that their animal is safe and happy.

About: Nanny families have relied on me to care for their fur family members for years! I've learned they're just like little kiddos. Learning everything and wanting love and connection.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Philomath. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
