“Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!”

“Lucinda was very attentive to the unique needs of our elderly dachshund. We appreciated her flexibility, communication, and her updates while she watched over our pups and our home. I would recommend Lucinda to anyone in need of a dog sitter or house sitter (or both).”

“Tayler was wonderful. She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She checked in daily with us and sent pictures to keep us updated. Her temperament and patience worked really well with our dog who is skiddish and wary of new people. We would highly recommend her!”

“Veronica was incredibly attentive to our pups. Our older dog can sometimes be anxious, but had no problems while Veronica was here - I’m guessing because she felt comfortable and taken care of. Veronica left our place cleaner than when we left. We’d be happy to have her back!”

“Thank You, Ann! We appreciate the thoughtful care you put into watching our pets for a long weekend. Midnight and Joy were in high spirits when we returned. Highly recommended!”


“Jamie is hands down the best sitter we’ve had. He took excellent of my senior, arthritic, anxious pit bull and 4 ducks. He asked thorough, conscientious questions about their care which showed me how much he really cares. My dog Annie has difficulty walking long distances and Jamie was incredibly patient and kind with her. He also left our house extremely clean. Thank you, Jamie!”

“Chanel was a great cat and house sitter. She sent me pictures of my cat each day and kept me updated on how she was doing. She left my condo the same way she found it. She was great with communication before, during and after the pet sit. I would recommend Chanel for your pet sitting/house sitting needs.”


“Our two dogs were instantly at ease with Kelly the moment they met her. She watched our two large dogs (60lb and 70 lb) for eleven days while we were traveling. She took each of them on a walk every morning, kept them company during the day, and spent the night at our house for their peace of mind (and ours). She coped admirably with an unexpected outbreak of ants in the kitchen that started the morning before we left, and with our inquisitive Shepherd chewing up her sunglasses. In addition, she fed our pet frogs twice weekly and watered our house plants. She sent us daily updates and pictures of the dogs. When we returned home, our dogs were happy to see us but calm and didn't appear stressed in the least. We look forward to hiring Kelly again to care for our dogs.”

“This was our second time using Laura and can’t recommend her enough for a repeat sitting. She sent us so many pictures and updates of our pup and went above and beyond to take care of our house. Thanks Laura!”

“Ashlyn was great! She was super communicative and punctual. I had a VERY last min overnight sitting request and she was as on it no problem. She left my home clean and tidy and took excellent care of my old giant breed pup. I would totally recommend her. Thanks Ashlyn!”


“Sparkle was just amazing. It was obvious that our two pups were taken well care of. She provided lovely updates and kept our home very very clean while we were away. If we weren't moving out of town I'd for sure hire her again. HIGHLY recommend her!”

“Dustin was very prompt with communication and sent frequent pictures and videos of our pups on our trip. Our older dog can be stubborn and picky about taking her meds, and he was patient with her and able to get her to take her medications, so that really says a lot to us. We will be using Dustin’s services again for our next trip in October too.”

“Victoria was wonderful while watching our dogs! She was communicative and shared videos and pictures of our pets. We knew our pups were safe and well looked after. Highly recommend Victoria if you are looking for the best care for your fur babies!! Would absolutely use her again!”

“Michael was fantastic. He was open to meeting on short notice and saved the day when our original sitter fell through. He's a real pro and was so attentive to our pups. We'd absolutely book him again.”


About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently share my home with five cats and three dogs, including a senior dachshund and a four month old puppy we’re training ourselves. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and it's something I truly love. Friends and family often trust me to look after their pets, from cats and dogs to bunnies and even bearded dragons. I'm kind, attentive, reliable, and always on time, I treat every animal with the same care and affection I give my own. I'm a recent high school graduate, and I'll be heading off to college in a few months. Right now, I'm enjoying my summer break and have a very flexible schedule—giving me plenty of time and energy to care for your furry friend. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. With no other major commitments this summer, your pet will have my full attention and care. I approach every home I care in with a strong sense of safety, consistency, and respect for privacy. While I may be pet sitting in your home, I understand that your space is personal, and I treat it with the utmost care and discretion. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I make sure to keep the environment clean, organized, and calm. I provide attentive, personalized care and always follow any special instructions whether that involves administering medication, sticking to a specific diet, or following a preferred exercise routine. My ultimate goal is to create a stress-free, positive experience for both you and your pet.
“Matt was an excellent pet sitter. He was extremely easy to work with and took great care of our house and pets while we were away. He was always quick to respond, and I feel he went above and beyond to ensure we came home to a well-kept home and pets.”

Chanel was a great cat and house sitter. She sent me pictures of my cat each day and kept me updated on how she was doing. She left my condo the same way she found it. She was great with communication before, during and after the pet sit. I would recommend Chanel for your pet sitting/house sitting needs.

This was the fourth or fifth time Sadie took care of my pets and my home. My pets absolutely love spending time with Sadie, and I can sense their disappointment when I arrive instead - I suspect that only pet owners understand the joy of being a disappointment when they return. Sadie is also an excellent communicator, and I trust her completely.

This was the first time Lisa stayed with our golden Beatrice. She was great!! She took excellent care of Beatrice and our home. We came back to happy dog and a clean home. Lisa sent regular updates and photos and left a detailed care sheet for us with everything that she did each day. She followed our instructions for Beatrice perfectly. I highly recommend Lisa to take care of your pets. We will definitely rebook Lisa in the future.

Our first time with Celeste and we were very happy with her care of our fur kids. She took care of our two old pups - one who loves everyone and one who is less than thrilled with humans in general. The grumpy guy even liked her. And our three-legged cat was happy too. We got photos and videos daily, and everyone seemed happy and content. We will definitely have Celeste over again.

Jude was the best sitter I can get my hands on!! It was very last minute and I was afraid I would get a a sitter that wasn’t attentive, but that’s not the case at all. We did a meet and greet and we walked through all of my kittens needs. Jude made sure to follow through all of those needs and more! Sent follow ups and updates on time. There was even a last minute schedule change where I needed Jude to pet sit more and they were very understanding! Very will use Jude another when I go on my trips. Recommend to anyone looking for a sitter that cares and loves animals!!

Seth is a true professional who cares about the details and the well being of your puppy / dog. Despite short notice, Seth was very thorough in the communication leading up and during the sitting. He provided photos and updates on Maple’s health. Definitely recommend!

Emily was fantastic! She came to meet our puppy, connected with our puppy quickly, and asked great questions about her care. Emily is personable, clearly loves animals, and had great communication both in setting up the booking and while we were away. She sent cute pictures to let us know how each day went and Emily was flexible when the dates changed during our trip. Thank you Emily!

Steven is truly wonderful!! I feel so lucky that I’ve found such an awesome human to take care of my baby girl and my home. She took excellent care of my pup, who is now sleeping like a rock from all of the wonderful care and attention given to her. Steven also took wonderful care of my home. I highly recommend her, as I will be using her from here on out!!

Lucinda is just amazing.!! Thoughtful, gentle, and conscientious of my specific needs for MY high maintenance needs for my dog that I asked of her. Her communication throughout the time she stayed was impeccable. She took lots of pictures. I almost didn’t make it home her last day bcuz of flight issues and she was immediately willing to watch another day on the spot. What more could one ask for. She left my home exactly as I would. She’s also just a caring and lovely person too!!

Veronica is a wonderful person I couldn’t have asked for a better in home pet sitter. Very communicative from the start, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cared and treated both our dog and kitty with so much love and attention. We really appreciated the updates and could tell our pets were comfortable and happy with her. Veronica went above and beyond also taking good care of our home. She is very trustworthy, I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly wonderful pet sitter!

My wife and I were visiting the Oregon coast and needed a sitter just for the day. I had searched and reached out to a lot of people to try and accommodate our needs. Luckily Alyssa and Max were in the area sitting another pup literally just up the road. We had set up a meet and greet and my dogs knew right away they were a great fit. We were so glad to have found them. At the end of the dog sit they even provided a little report card telling us how everything went, super cute. I would hire them again in a heart beat.

Bonnie has watched our dogs and our home twice now and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provides! She even offered to do a second meet and greet to make sure she didn’t miss any details on our dogs unique diets. Our girls are small but they are leash reactive and Bonnie handles them! Thank you for being awesome, Bonnie!
