“Matt was a wonderful pupsitter for our somewhat neurotic, slightly clingy Frenchie. 😀 We left Maisey with him and his wonderful family of 6 dogs for only a couple of hours but during that time he sent a text update on how she was doing and took pics of her playing in the backyard. We rarely leave Maisey with a stranger but Matt made us feel super comfortable and we had an excellent experience!”

“Penny had a great day with Christina! During the day, Christina sent me photos of Penny and updates on how she was settling in and getting on with her family furry friends. Christina is super friendly and a great communicator. I felt totally at ease leaving Penny with her.”

“It was the first time using this app and the first time our pup has been away from us (except when at the vet’s) and I couldn’t be any happier with the experience! Alex and his dog Reggie took great care of our 10 month old. She was a little nervous at first and it showed. That didn’t stop Alex from confidently taking her leash and walking her over to meet Reggie. She calmed immediately around Alex and in less than a minute was playing with Reggie. I’m so glad we found someone as experienced around dogs of various personalities and temperaments as Alex is. He sent a couple pics, too. All around fantastic experience!!”

“Lauren was great! She was flexible & accommodating, loved on our Tucker dog, who can have high separation anxiety, and communicated with us through the day to let us know how he was doing and to verify any concerns. It was a blessing to have her watch him for the day, allowing him to join us on this trip but to know he was in good hands while we completed activities he could not join us for. We would definitely use Lauren again!”
“This was my first time using Tawyna & John P "Clay" for doggy day care, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. Clay was professional from the start and always prompt in responding to my questions, which I really appreciated. When we arrived, he took the time to give me a tour and patiently answered all of my questions. The multiple levels of fenced kennel runs with bark chips were very well done, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that both of my Weimaraners were safe and secure. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time! They came home happy and happily worn out at the end of the day, which says everything. I’m so thankful for the care Clay provided and would absolutely recommend him to others looking for a safe, well-run place for their dogs.”

“Jill was wonderful! Super easy drop off and pickup for our day trip to Willamette. We felt comfortable leaving our dog with her. Riley was happy and tired when she finished her visit. Thank you, Jill!”

“Megan did a great job sitting with Duke in our house and kept in touch during her stay with texts and photos. We are planning a trip later and will use Megan again for house sitting.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole entire life, a dog is a man’s best friend in my opinion. I currently got a 2.5 yr old English bulldog! His name is Wu-Tang😎 I’ve taken care of a lot of Frenchie’s for Crown bully farms, and still currently am. I would be available almost everyday, to walk feed or “dog sit” I am available M-F and Saturday.. get in contact with me for more information, TIA. I have a fenced yard at home, and there would be plenty of water for dogs outside. And will only feed dogs food that is provided for them..
“Chloe and her family took great care of our pup when we were in town for a softball tournament. She was really flexible in accommodating our last minute game schedules for drop off and pick up. ?”
About: If your dog loves walks, attention, and being treated like absolute royalty… we’re going to get along great 🐾 I’ve been dog sitting for over a decade, and at this point it’s less of a job and more of a personality trait. I walk my own dog three times a day (yes, we’re that kind of household), and I genuinely can’t wait to add your pup to the routine! I’m fully that girl who has to stop and say hi to every cute dog I pass—and by the end of it, we’re best friends. So just know: your dog is not getting casual care… they’re getting full-on obsession. Your doggo will get plenty of walks, love, cuddles, attention, and playtime from me and my sweet girl Sparrow. Think of it as a little vacation where they’re the main character 💁♀️ Can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new favorite human (besides you of course!) I work 8-5p M-F but work from home 3 days a week and have availability to walk early mornings, evenings, and during my lunch breaks! My weekends are typically very free and are usually filled with park visits and walks! I treat other dogs just like they are my own, and my girl is treated like an absolute queen! I make sure doors are securely closed, that anything potentially harmful is stored away, and always take weather into consideration when walking (if it’s over 80 degrees out, I will provide boots to ensure that pups don’t get their paws burned!) I make sure to bring water and poop bags and will always communicate if something seems off.
About: I love caring for animals from infancy to their seasoned days. Cats, dogs, small house pets, birds, goats, chickens, I got your back! Feeding schedules and any medication needs are no problem. Was raised with many types of animals my whole life thanks to my compassionate mother! I am happy to offer care as much as possible, my calendar regularly updated. I have time in the day typically I work from home and can check in morning and evening. Please let me know the routine and feeding times, locking schedule ect. My goal is to keep everyone healthy and safe under my watch. I am familiar with locking up livestock at dusk if needed.
“Hannah was great. She was very flexible and punctual and cared for our pup well. It was nice knowing our dog got to enjoy farm life. She even washed him when he got muddy. Very kind.”

About: We have taken care of many friends and families dogs over the years, small and large breeds. We've helped potty train puppies. We have had great success teaching them great tricks, such as sit/lay/wait/shake/whisper/etc. We are a newly empty nest home, very adventurous and outdoorsy. Taking your fur baby on hikes and long walks, playing at the park and enjoying our fenced in backyard. We are newly emptynesters, as both our boys are away at college. Dad works full time, Mom was a full time Mommy until the boys moved off to College. We lost our Yorker a few years back, but we were in a phase of life that kept us too busy for a new fur baby. But now that the boys are off to college and life has settled down some, we’ve talked about the possibility of bringing in a new dog to the family. Dad wants a new dog now, Mom wants to make sure it’s the right time first. So as a compromise, we want to care for and love your pets while you are away. On occasion, the college boys will be home to love on your fur babies as well. We are a very active couple, we love the outdoors. We'd love to have your dogs along for the fun! We cannot watch cats in our home, but are happy to do drop in visits in your home to play with and care for them. We do accept dogs in our home for care. We have a fenced in backyard for lots of playtime, and fields and parks nearby for longer walks and play. We currently have two cats, so your dog must do well with cats to stay in our home. We can also do daily or multi daily check ins on pets in your home (sorry, no housesitting/staying over in your home). We will play with them, cuddle with them, feed/water, clean litter boxes and make sure they are happy and safe in the comfort of their own home. Whether our home or yours, you can trust that your fur babies will be happy and safe in our care while you are away.

“Vanessa was super gracious and caring for my cats when I needed someone to watch them for a couple hours. Not only that, but she’s very educated with animals being a vet tech, and had all the supplies for them so I didn’t have to lug all their stuff over!! I’m definitely going to be contacting her again for help with my furry family. Thank you!!”
“We had our 2 pups stay with Roxanne while we were taking a daytrip to the coast, with the hope that by having them run around and play all day they'd be tired puppers when we got back. Mission accomplished! They were a little hyper when we picked them up because they were happy to see us again, but once we got home they were both EXHAUSTED. It looked like there were 4 other pups staying with Roxanne that day from the pictures she sent during the day, and from what she said they had a blast playing together. I loved how fast Roxanne was to respond to messages, as it made it easy to coordinate for dropoff/pickup. Thank you!”
