About: I am an animal lover who specializes in enrichment walks and play. All ages, 1 on 1 care. I am just like you! I have owned pets my whole life, I know how much they mean to our families and your boundaries and their health matter most to me. Happiness is everyone cared for and safe. I have a completely flexible schedule and I’ll be solely focused on Rover this summer and growing this business. I love to be outdoors and am an organized individual. My pet passed in February due to old age and so we have a full setup just waiting to accommodate a pup in need of a stay. We have animal beds, toys, A yard (not fenced in) with a chain run and lots of neighborhood to walk in! We also have a disabled person in the home with so much love to give to animals with a need for more affection and who can ensure someone is with your furry friend if we need to run an errand. We love a dog park or beach run if that’s what your pup is into, and our car is well equipped with baggies and h2o bowls to make sure any trip is safe and fun.

About: I’ve cared for family dogs and a cat my whole life, including senior pets with complex needs—so I understand how important patience and gentle care can be. For the past 5 years, I’ve also pet sat for friends and neighbors, from energetic puppies to older animals needing medication or extra help. I recently moved from Atlanta to the Portland area for a full-time job, and leaving my family dogs behind was one of the hardest parts. I work 4 long shifts a week, which makes having a pet of my own tough—but I have plenty of free time, love, and experience to offer yours. Pet sitting and walking helps fill that gap in my heart, and I treat every pet like family. I work full-time Wednesday through Saturday from 9am to 7pm, but I’m available for walks or check-ins before or after my shifts. I have open availability on Sundays through Tuesdays and plenty of flexibility to offer quality time with your pet. I’m also available for overnight stays—even on my workdays, as long as I can head out by 8am. Pet care fits naturally into my life, and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. While I can’t have pets in my apartment, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in your home where they feel most comfortable. I offer overnight stays, drop-ins, and walks, and can help with feeding, fresh water, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. I’m also happy to transport pets if needed. I treat every animal like they’re my own—keeping them safe, happy, and relaxed while you're away.

I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages in the workplace and in my personal life, even my dad’s police K-9 dog. To me animals are angels on earth and deserve a loving, caring, and compassionate atmosphere! Whether you are on a trip, at work, or in need of some extra help, you can count on me to keep your furry family member happy and safe! I am currently enrolled full-time in college, and I am looking for a flexible but beneficial job! On days that I do not have classes I am available to give all of my attention to your pets!

I also work at a zoo so I am comfortable around all types of animals. I am available any time after 6 everyday, usually 5 on weekdays depending on when I get out of work. If needed I am available before 9 AM everyday as well. I have a diabetic dog at home, so I am versed in administering shots. I have 5 cats and keep litter boxes clean and ensure they are happy and healthy.

About: Hi! My name is Faith and I’m a passionate animal lover with 10 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. From energetic puppies to senior cats, I’ve helped families keep their furry friends safe, healthy, and happy. I’m currently available Monday through Friday but will not be available Sundays typically I am available most Saturday mornings. I am available weekdays all day! I have a lot of experience with dogs and pay very close attention to detail. Making sure they have water and are fed on time, taken on walks and treat time is important !

“Carmen was amazing, she looked after Kono really well. She made sure everything was cleaned and he was well fed:-) I highly recommend Carmen!”



About: I'm highly dependable and punctual, and I always provide clear updates so you know how the walk went. You’ll never be left wondering—just happy to see your dog getting great care and exercise while you’re away or busy. I work a full-time job Monday - Friday, with remote work at the beginning of the week and an hour-long break each day for those local to my office in Portland. My weekends are typically open, as I have Saturdays and Sundays off work. Generally speaking, I may be able to accommodate walks before 8 am and after 5 pm throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space and their routine with respect. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding, refreshing water, wiping paws, or giving meds—and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you're away. For walks, I tailor the pace and route to your dog’s needs and energy level. Whether they’re a high-energy pup who loves to explore or a senior who enjoys a slow stroll, I make sure they’re getting the right amount of exercise, enrichment, and love. After every visit, I send an update so you know how things went and how your pet is doing!


About: Hello!! I currently have a fully flexible schedule and can provide overnights. During my time I will be sure to give all the care and attention to your pets :)! Thank you in advance for your interest. I grew up with dogs and cats and worked with animals professionally. I have 20 years of various animal experience, from riding horses to always being around dogs and cats. I feel confident I can handle any of your pets needs. My professional experience involves working at MSPCA where I administered medications and subcutaneous shots. I worked with high energy dogs, helping to correct behavioral issues as a trainer and coached peers. My very first job was working in a zoo where I cared for a wide array of different animal breeds. I am used to big dogs, small dogs, and animals with health issues. I can handle puppies/kittens and am reliable when it comes to last minute changes or short notice. Whatever you need, you can feel secure with me around. I look forward to helping you with your pet care needs. I seek to provide your furry family with a loving energetic and cuddly sitter. Please let me know anything you need. Thank you! I am available daily and have full flexibility. I am a runner as well and if your dog needs higher energy exercise, I can provide that. Unfortunately my space does not allow for boarding or daycare. From the moment I step into your home, I will care for your house and animals as if they were my own. I always leave the place how I found it or better. There is no greater feeling than walking into a clean space.


About: I’ve been working with animals for years now, whether it be dog sitting, assisting at a groomers, or now raising my own fur babies. Although our time together will be short, they will be treated just like family. Lots of cuddles and play time. I work full time but I work from home! My job is flexible if you need someone to pop in throughout the day. Most work days are 7-3:30 and I can certainly bring my set up with me for extended stays! My pets are my babies! I love them more than words can describe. They get alll the cuddles and attention one could need. I’m very observant and can sense when they’re in need and don’t let them do anything too crazy while still having fun!

“I love vacationing but I HATE leaving my cats home alone as they’re both rescues and I’m scared of them feeling abandoned. Sarah somehow managed to get my extremely shy and skiddish cat to come out for pictures, so essentially, she works magic. I came home to two happy cats and felt better about leaving them knowing Sarah took such good care of them!”


“Thank you Aria for taking such good care of George and Gracie - as much as you could. You put my mind at ease with your postings and your daily pics of George in the same chair. But they were eating well and pooping a lot. That’s the best a mom could hope for. Till next time”


About: I am a big advocate for making sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you are away whether that’s sitting with them and giving them all the pets or throwing a ball for as long as they’d like. I have 3 cuddly, goofy, loving dogs named Sofi, Sadie, and Kali! I genuinely love dogs and cats and always have! I am currently college student taking day classes. I am available part time from 8am-11pm. I am flexible with scheduling drop in visits for when you need me. I am not housing pets at this time. I am available for drop-ins. I am looking forward to meeting and taking care of your fur babies!

“Victoria was excellent with our sassy cat! She was very knowledgeable and professional. We really appreciated her patience with our cat and the great updates with photos. We would absolutely book with Victoria again!”


“Very responsive, thorough, and great communication. Super with Finn!”


“Prompt and friendly”


About: Various animal care experience including past training in pet CPR and First Aid. I've also been a professional petsitter for a small business before, and have owned dogs all of my life. I want clients, both animal and human, to feel well-cared for and I do that with dedicated service and thorough communication. Building relationships between myself and the animals as well as the people are really important to me. My focus is to understand and attend to each animal and family's unique needs and goals. I love being a part of a pack and to make sure the care and environment is as harmonious as possible. I'd love to get to know your pets and to be able to show you my devotion to animal care. I'm currently pretty available on Saturdays. I'd love to work with clients who are looking for drop-ins and/or walks anytime during the day and evening. For clients' pets I want to work with what helps keep their routine and services their needs. For my own dog who is highly active and a senior, I work with physical therapy exercises for his mobility, training games learned from Pawsitive Canine, and puzzle toys + throwing the ball.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. I genuinely care about their well-being—both yours and my own. I treat every pet like family and do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Given the chance, I’m confident your pets will feel right at home with me. I work full-time for the Department of Corrections, but that doesn’t get in the way of providing quality care. I'm available for morning and evening visits, and I can usually stop in during lunch—especially for multi-day stays. If I’m staying in your home to care for your pet, my schedule won’t be an issue at all. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I am pretty flexible as long as its within reason. I always let my animals out when ever I have the opportunity. If you prefer your animal in doors more that is fine too. Again it's up to you I keep a constant eye on food and water levels as well as any strange behavior a pet my display etc. Illness or maybe they ate something they shouldnt have.
