House Sitting in Portland

“Best dog friend we have ever found. Extremely attentive, stayed with the dogs the entire time and sent lots of pictures and updates. Elizabeth made sure our thunderstorm-shy puppy had his meds well in advance of the storm and even let one of the puppies sleep on the bed with her (turns out he does not share the bed well). We cannot recommend Elizabeth highly enough and will always check with her first when we go out of town!”

“Kyanna gave appropriate updates and gave good communication on handoffs. Already rebooked for next trip.”

“Cindy did an overnight for us and she was fantastic! She reached out with questions, which we appreciated as it ensured everyone was on track and being fed as they have come to expect. Cindy also responded to my text messages. The only evidence I had she was here is the toilet seat was up. :-) Cindy left the house in fantastic condition.”

“Katie is a great dog sitter! Our pups took to her immediately when they met her. She kept us posted daily as to their well-being while we were out, and followed instructions to the letter. She asked us questions about their care if she was uncertain, and even about other things she noticed around the house that she could help with. I highly recommend Katie and know we will call on her again in the future!”

“Lauren was a pleasure to deal with and fulfilled all of our requests. We are very happy with the experience and would recommend her for your dog-sitting needs.”

“Nick is truly the best! Nick is a great guy and so trustworthy. We left our yellow lab, Bodi with Nick for 5 days and came back to a spotless house and a well taken care of dog. Nick was thoughtful enough to give us daily updates on how things were going along with pictures. He is truly a natural with dogs and can tell how much he loves animals, our Bodi took to him right away. Definitely will be requesting Nick for future dog care and highly recommend him. Nick is a true gem who went above and beyond without being asked.”

“Jessica does a great job with our dog and kittie while we are gone. We have no worries that she will take care of everything and we get daily updates and cute oics!”

“Shirley couldn’t have been any nicer - our meet and greet went well, and my babies loved her. Imagine their surprise when their new bestie came to hang out with them for the weekend! Shirley sent me *phenomenal* photos, kept me posted on my little ones stinky ear, and loved on my dogs like they were her own. She went above and beyond, getting our mail and taking care of the house. When we got home, it was like nobody had been there! We will definitely be having her over again, or our dogs will revolt! Thank you!!”

Elizabeth W.

“Gru and I love Paige! She was able to stay and look after my giant puppy right after the holidays. She was so kind, a great communicator, and made sure to send pictures. I knew he was in great hands! Thank you, Paige.”

“Tony was amazing. He is kind and took great care of our fur babies. They took to him right away during our meet and greet. I highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to rebook with him.”

Krysta E.

“Chelsie took great care of our four cats! I think our youngest two cats want her back because they got lots of play time! She made sure to check our mail and keep it organized. We think our house may have been cleaner when we came home than when we left! We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch our house and fur babies.”

About: I had a golden retriever when i was little girl, and my love for dogs exploded! I have experience with young puppies to older dogs. Playing fetch and walking are my favorite activities to see doggie tails wagging! 😊 I currently work part time and go to college part time. I have plenty of time to take care of your loving fur babies and make them always feel at home! I cannot do pet sitting at home, but I am more than comfortable staying at your home and taking care of your furry animal! Safety comes first!

About: I treat every pet and home with the same care and attention I’d give my own. What sets me apart is my intentionality — I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routines, and needs, whether it’s a high-energy dog, a shy cat, or a senior pet that requires a calm companion. I’ve provided care during holidays, followed detailed medication schedules, and even kept houseplants thriving while clients were away. I’m communicative, clean, and genuinely enjoy creating a stress-free experience for both pets and their people. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine — I genuinely enjoy it and plan my days around giving pets the attention they need. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feeding routines, I stay flexible and dependable. I also build in time for play, snuggles, and cleanup to make sure every visit feels intentional and relaxed. I treat pet care as more than just a task — it’s a rhythm I enjoy and a responsibility I take seriously. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect and create a calm, familiar environment for the pets. I follow all instructions carefully — from feeding routines to preferred walking routes — and make sure pets feel safe, seen, and relaxed. I lock up securely, stay aware of my surroundings on walks, and provide detailed updates so clients always know how things are progressing. My goal is to maintain a peaceful, clean, and trustworthy atmosphere — one that is both for the pets and their owners.

“Thalia was incredibly involved and kind with my dog Alaska. She listened to my concerns and ensured that my pet was well taken care of. She went above and beyond, and I will be using her services again.”

About: I have owned dogs and cats all of my life, ever since I was a child. Since the beginning of September 2022 I have also been working at a doggie daycare/boarding/grooming facility. On top of all of this I have also watched my friends and families ever since I could drive around to there houses (16 years old). I would love to help make your life easier by taking care of your pets as well! I am currently a full-time student as well as a part-time worker and would love to add more pet care to my schedule. I can have more pet care in the mornings I dont work, the evenings and on the weekends! I live in an apartment complex with my two cats, dog, and two guinea pigs. While your animals won't interact with mine, they would love it! In a clients home it is allabout making sure your pet is loved and cared for while you are gone. I will make sure your pet gets the quality time they need while you are gone. I am currently a part-time voice teacher in Grand Rapids as I just moved back to Michigan. I am not gone longer than 4 hours at a time typically. My main services are done in the clients home. This works really well for pets as it doesn’t disrupt their routine while their parents are away. I do my best to keep them comfortable and relaxed. Whether that involves playing or snuggling on the couch.

About: I am an avid dog trainer and owner. I have raised dogs for the past 5 years, while traveling around the county with my own dogs and those of others for AKC shows. I am a part of a local 4H club, recent graduate, and have attended prestigious events such as the Westminster Dog Show. During this time I have been responsible for dogs own by other people. I have skills with basic and advanced obedience and conformation. Dogs that I have cared for range from puppies to senior dogs. I have a great ability to make connections with all breeds of dogs. I am used to a daily routine of letting dogs out, feeding, exercising, and training. This routine comes very natural for me. I enjoy working with dogs. I am able to keep a balanced and safe schedule for all pets. I am used to meeting the needs for multiple animals. I show responsibility by following clear directions that have been given to me in order to care for the pet.

“April did awesome with our puppy! I loved that she frequently sent me photos of him and kept me updated throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their furbabies.”

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages. I've attended many dog training sessions with Petsmart and multiple dog training experts. I have three dogs of my own, a pomeranian, a golden doodle and a doberman. I am available anytime Friday thru Sunday for walking and or sitting. I am also available noon to five upon request Monday thru Thursday for dog walking only. I would follow your schedule and routine for your fur babies as needed and requested. I will gladly care for your fur babies as if they were my own.

“Alexis stayed at our home for a week with the dogs while we were out of town. We have an anxious senior dog that had just started meds prior to us leaving. Alexis administered her pills daily and kept her calm. She sent photos of her and the pups and kept our home tidy, even picking up when our older dog had gotten a hold of something and chewed it up. We appreciate everything she did and will definitely be booking with her again!”
