“We have Jenni care for our dog and reptiles every time we go out of town. She is reliable, and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is well cared for! It is so nice to know that we do not need to worry about the pets when we are away!”


“Harper was very good. She kept me updated and sent pictures. She even cleaned up the mess my dog made as she got out of her crate and loved her freedom. I highly recommend her.”

“Jade was awesome! This was our first time using Rover, and we will be using Jade again. Her communication was A+ She kept us updated the entire time we were away. She was easy to reach, and super responsive. She included tons of pictures of the pugs - including outdoor time, belly rubs, and having fun w/out Mom and Dad :-) We felt totally at ease with Jade. Thank you for being you and taking such great care of our pugs while we were away.”

About: Our family would love to spend time with your dog! We had a Shitzu Llaso Apso for the last 15 yrs, but he passed away. We're not quite ready to adopt another dog but he left a serious hole. We'd be ever so grateful for you to lend us your pup to soak up our attention! Brenda has had dogs her whole life. From puppies to old buddies. We'll take your instructions seriously and make sure your dog is happy and loved. Dogs under 40 lbs are the best fit for our space and we limit our pup sitting capacity to two pets at a time. If your pet needs 1 on 1 care just let us know and we'll do our best to arrange it! We have two kids (12 & 14) who went to the"PET" (Pet Education Training) class at OMSI last summer and are serious about treating your dog well. We love to play at the park and go for neighborhood walks! Or just hang out in our fenced yard if that's your buddy’s speed. Reach out, we'd love to meet your pup fur-real! I work part-time from home and loves the energy that dogs bring to my workday. We have a fenced yard and love going for walks. We have experience with dogs of all ages, though we aren't taking puppies at the moment. If you have any questions just text/call us at anytime during your dogs stay.


“Thank you so much Blake! Blake was great. He took my booking request even though it was last min. He made time to come visit before hand and meet my cat and get a lay of the land. My cat warmed up to him right away and I could tell me cat was enjoying Blake’s company from the photos Blake provided. I would definitely recommend Blake to other pet owners. Thanks again.”


“Jade is always so helpful and we'd recommend them to anyone that needs care for their pets. We feel so lucky to have found someone who cares so much for our little ones”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my home since I was born. Now I’m raising one of my own, and he’s my soulmate. While I’ve never worked with animals professionally, over my 30+ years of personal experience, I’ve learned the ins and outs, the good and bad, of what it means to love and care for a dog and give them the happy and healthy life they deserve. My desire to give that to any and all animals is a huge part of me. I’ve always just naturally connected with dogs, but I’ve also volunteered at various pet shelters and taken dog behavioral courses. I’ve done pet sitting for numerous friends and family members. Every dog is different, and I’ve found myself to be very in tune to each individual dog I’ve met in order to get to know them and earn their trust. I’d love the opportunity to meet yours! I’m available for drop-in visits and walks. Right now, my open schedule is Monday-Friday during the day, from about 10am-4pm, give or take. I’m generally unavailable in the evenings. For drop-ins, I’d be happy to do feedings and water refills, potty breaks, and of course snuggle and play indoors or outdoors. For walks, we’ll stroll in your neighborhood! Please let me know if your dog has any triggers or sensitivities (loud noises, other dogs, squirrels, humans, etc) and I’ll do my very best to avoid them. I will always take your dog out on a leash. No matter how well-trained and impressive your pup is, I’m just not comfortable with pups I don’t know well off-leash. Harnesses are preferred in addition for large pups.

“We were visiting the area and staying in an Airbnb for a wedding. We needed a dog sitter for the day of the wedding and Dana was great! It was awesome knowing our boy was safe and taken care of while we were celebrating with family. Thank you Dana!”


“Kathleen is awesome! She gave great updates full of pictures and spent a lot of time with them so they feel comfortable around her. I knew they were in good hands, she followed all instructions and gave them plenty of play time.”


“We’re so grateful for the care Alexandra showed for our kitty while we were away. Our cat loved her immediately! Alexandra truly went above and beyond and her daily check ins were so detailed and thoughtful. Thank you, Alexandra!”
