About: As a long time pet lover, I began caring for dogs in my neighborhood and volunteering at the local animal shelter at the age of 12. I went on to work for a local petsitting company as a house sitter and dog walker while I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology. I am a skilled dog trainer currently offering training services in the Eugene/Springfield area. My dog training career started when I completed an internship with a local dog trainer in high school and since then I have continued to expand my knowledge of dog behavior through training experience, research, interviews with trainers, and online courses. I utilize gentle training techniques that reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in dogs and promote relaxation and confidence. I never engage in harsh training methods such as prong collars, shock collars, dominance, or physical force; my techniques are based only on positive reinforcement and trust. I specialize in training dogs with separation anxiety so if your dog suffers from this, they will be in good hands and they will never be left alone for long periods. Before joining Rover, I was already providing dog boarding and daycare to my existing training clients. I have experience with a variety of senior dogs and I am able to administer any medications your dog requires. I also offer daily teeth brushing if this is part of your dog's routine. You can rest assured that whatever your pet's needs are, they will be met while they are under my care. I am also an independently insured petsitter with Pet Care Insurance which covers accidents or injuries and provides that extra peace of mind. Petsitting and dog training is my full-time job and my husband works from home, so there is usually always someone home with the dogs. I provide boarding and daycare 7-days a week and your dog’s health and happiness is my sole responsibility allowing me to be attentive to your dog's needs throughout the day. My home is an ideal boarding or daycare situation for your small dog. I only accept dogs that stand 17 inches or less at the shoulder and weigh 30lbs or less. I do occasionally make exceptions to this rule for senior dogs up to 40lbs that are very good with small dogs, calm, low energy and slow moving. I don’t accept Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Pitbull Terriers, Bulldogs, Bull Terriers, Huskys, German Shepherds and Chow Chows or their mixes due to these breeds not being a good fit for my small dog environment (a small percentage of 15% or less is okay if it came up in your dog’s mixed breed DNA test though). Please keep in mind I carefully screen all dogs for proper temperament your dog needs to be friendly with a group of dogs during a daycare trial or meet and greet in order to be approved for boarding. My priority is to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for small dogs, and reduce the risk of injury. I have a house with a dog door and fenced yard and your dog will have full access to just like they are used to at home. I provide frequent potty breaks as well as not all dogs are familiar with a dog door. At night I offer a number of different sleeping options depending on your dog’s size and temperament. They might sleep in a crate in the bedroom with us, in a soft sided crate on our bed, in an exercise pen, or loose in the living room where they'll have comfy couches and beds available. Some dogs I allow to be loose in the bed with us but it depends on the dog. I do not by default require dogs to be crated, and if you prefer your dog not be crated they can usually have a crate-free experience at my house. In this case, I only use a crate or exercise pen as a last resort if your dog displays destructive behaviors that cannot be managed. I am very safety oriented and I will ensure your dog is never left alone with my dogs, or dogs from other households. I use tall pet gates to ensure all entrances are secure when doors to the outside are being opened to prevent escape artists. I always check the vaccination status (including bordatella) of all potential dogs who stay with me. If your dog experiences an illness or injury during their stay I will contact your dog’s usual veterinarian. In case of an emergency after hours I can take them to Wilvet South at 444 B Street in Springfield. I do everything I can to make sure your pet has a stress-free, comfortable stay with me.

About: I have personally cared for dogs and cats for more than 20 years and have extensive pet-sitting experience. One of my long-term clients has trusted me with her pets for over 14 years. Throughout that time, I have cared for cats with a variety of medical needs, including administering oral medications and injections. I am comfortable providing specialized care and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail when caring for pets with health concerns. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a midday check-in, medication administration, a walk, or extra attention, I can often adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I am committed to providing dependable care and clear communication while your pets are in my care. Creating a safe and trusting environment is one of my top priorities. I provide pet care exclusively in your home, where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. Since I have a full household of my own with four cats, two pet rats, and a dog, I do not offer boarding in my home.

“Teresa was such a help to me this week spending some time with my pup and providing a potty break while I’ve been at work. I will definitely be rebooking!!”

“Jillian did a fantastic job of taking care of our precious Gemma cat. My cat usually doesn't like other people but she warmed right up to Jillian and became friends instantly. Gemma was well loved and taken care of and I will be using Jillian's services again next time we leave town. Thanks again Jill! ❤️😽”

“Rosa is a wonderful and caring person. She is very intuitive and instantly gained trust from my cats. She successfully delivered fluids to my kitty with kidney disease and provided me with updates. I would definitely rebook with Rosa.”

Cheryl Y.

“Amazing! While usually shy and nervous, my little feline buddy immediately warmed up to Samantha. She provided excellent updates and pictures (very high-quality) consistently while we were gone. Would definitely book again!”

Connor S.

“Emily's cat-sitting services exceeded my expectations. At the meet and greet she asked for vet info in case of an emergency and asked about my cat's health so she could monitor for any issues. She was extremely warm, kind, and compassionate. She deeply cared for my cat and texted while she was here to let me know how the check-in was going and ask questions. We are thrilled to recommend Emily to others and looking forward to having her as our long-term sitter. Thank you Emily for your impeccable service and care!”

About: Hi! My name is Chelsea and I have loved dogs my whole life. My family had a bichon frisé when I was growing up, and I have adopted two of my own dogs in the last few years. One was a senior rescue and the other is a 3 year old rescue. Because of this, I do have experience working with senior dogs and administering medication to dogs. I have 15 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I primarily conduct my pet sitting services through another pet care app (not sure if I can list the name on here since it might be a competitor of Rover!) and I have nearly 200 5-star reviews on that app. At the moment, I am between full-time jobs, so pet care has become my full-time role for the time being! I primarily conduct my pet care services through another app (I am not sure if I can list the name here since it might be a competitor of Rover!) and I have nearly 200 5-star reviews on that app. There are several dogs that I walk on a weekly basis, but I still have room in my schedule to take on additional walks and sittings! When offering boarding, I make sure to keep my dog separate from the dog(s) I am boarding. She is super friendly but I like to be safe just in case and make sure everyone has their own space!

“Brandy is a sweetheart! Our pups love her.”
