“Shawnee did an amazing job taking care of my cats , they both were comfortable with her right away. She went out of her way to check on a problem we had with our automatic feeder, thankful for that. We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”

About: Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I've had cats since birth, cared for large dogs for the past 10 years, and have owned snakes and other reptiles for more than 20 years. This experience has given me a great understanding of the unique needs, personalities, and behaviors of many different types of pets. One of my greatest strengths is building trust quickly with animals. I take the time to meet each pet where they are, learn their preferences, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pet is full of zoomies, or prefers to hide under the bed, I adapt my approach to what works best for them. I understand that pets are family - they are for me too. I can't imagine my life without my pups, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. Whether you need pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, or just plain companionship while you're away, you can feel confident knowing your beloved pet is in caring and experienced hands. I am a teacher and am currently off for the summers so my hours are flexible. During the school year I can help weekends and evenings. I follow your instructions and care plans as you know what’s best for your pet. My goal is for your animals to feel that while they miss you, their routine and schedule has remained the same so they feel safe and loved.

About: I have grown up with all different types of animals like dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies, etc. I am very much an animal lover and I treat all animals with love and respect! I have provided dog sitting services for over 10 years and have cared for dogs with all types of needs. I have experience in taking care of senior dogs, dogs with disabilities, dogs with high energy, and dogs of all sizes. I wouldn't say I have experience in professional training, but I have some experience in training my own dogs (and cat). I am currently a full-time nursing student with a part time job. My schedule is changing pretty frequently, but I am very organized and good at keeping my schedule updated. I am home most of the week doing classes online, so I do have a lot of extra time for pet sitting, dog walks, and drop ins! I pride myself in creating a safe and loving environment for all animals. I treat all animals with love and respect and I always aim to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. In my own home, I only have one cat, but I aim to make the home as safe and playful as I can for him. I intended to bring the same love to other people's homes.

About: I have been a huge animal-lover my whole life. I grew up raising dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, cows, chickens and horses. I decided to carry my passion for animals into my continued education, where I recently graduated with a Bachelors degree in Animal Science, giving me thorough knowledge of our companions’ health and wellness. Beyond this, I worked for an equine facility taking care of boarder horses and teaching kids lessons. Currently I work for a boarding kennel, being responsible for all-around dog care. Previously, I worked for a dementia care company caring for elderly clients, which represents my caring nature very well, as I enjoyed what I did! I am comfortable taking care of pets of all ages, shapes and sizes. I recently moved to Oregon from Northern Idaho and would love to find recurring clients that want some extra and well-deserved attention for their pets. I am currently work 4 days a week, but I am flexible to take care of pets around those hours. Unfortunately, the schedule shifts weekly, so if you have some flexibility on times, we will make it work! I can be very dependable on feeding and potty times and try to keep their regular schedule as consistent as possible. I will provide cuddle and playtime sessions as much as I can as well!

About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!

About: Animal care has been a part of my whole life. I've always had a pet, whether they were cats or dogs. No matter the size, age, or breed of the pet, I understand to respect their boundaries and be mindful of their safety. Spoiling and playing with pets is the easiest task on the planet. I'm a part-time college instructor. My hours are extremely flexible, so I can happily take a break from grading to pop in for a pet. I first and foremost will defer to the owner's instructions and requests. For pop in care, I will check basic needs first: food/water/litter box/potty breaks. Then comes socializing or any other request from the owner. Weather permitting, I like to take dogs out for fetch, chase, tug-a-war, or casual walks. What we do is sometimes determined by the breed of dog. For cats, I understand that play is up to them. I'm happy to engage in any way they prefer. My own cat is a fiend for a string.

About: I have cared for a wide array of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, insects and amphibians! I have owned many pets over my lifetime, and feel confident in caring for elderly animals and administering medication. I have volunteered at my local vet clinic on multiple occasions, so handling animals prone to stress is also something that I am familiar with Currently I attend community college part time on Mondays, Wednesdays and the weekend. Every other day I will be completely free, and will make it my priority to give your pets all of the time and attention that they deserve! One of my greatest goals, second only to the welfare of your animals, is to ensure that client privacy and boundaries are respected at all times. I will ensure to follow instructions given about the home to the letter.

“Alice cared for my rats while I was away. I am very happy with the level of care she provided to them. I will definitely trust her with my rats again in the future.”

“Kerri was an excellent cat sitter when our original sitter fell through. She was great at communicating and sent more photos than required, and our pets loved her!”

About: I would love to take your dog for a walk when you can’t, feed it when you’re out of town and even stay with it if it has anxiety while you’re out of town on a business trip or on vacation. I work during the day so I would love to take care of your dog before and or after depending on what is requested. I work 11 - 7 Friday through Tuesday. I like to go on walks during my free time and a companion would make it that much more fun and enjoyable! I am saving up to travel the world and getting the chance to look after you dog one way or another would benefit me in more ways than you know. Thank you for taking the time to consider me a viable sitter. Have a great day! I work a 9-5 M-F with weekends pretty free. That means I can watch you pet and not miss any feeding times or walks! I can also stay at your place if you’re comfortable with that to make your animals life a little better while you’re away. I am comfortable with quick visits to feed your dogs, take them on walks and even cuddle them to make them feel safer. I can give them treats and play fetch to gain their trust!

“I was so glad when Elizabeth was available. She writes awesome visit summaries and stays in touch the whole time”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for years. I’m able to walk, bathe, and snuggle your pets . I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a fenced yard in NW Albany. I have two doodles in my home. We spend a lot of time outdoors especially in the morning. I involve them in the afternoon activities as well when I go out to garden. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and are given throughout the day.

“Kassidee did an awesome job taking care of our pups and stoping by to feed them. We would use her again without question.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and pet owner. I specialize in both dog and cat care from training and exercising, to feeding and brushing. I am a proud owner of several huskies and a Siamese cat currently. I am a teacher during the day during the school year but have evenings free and any time on the weekends. I’m available most anytime during the summer months. I am a runner and a dog sport enthusiast. I frequently engage in urban mushing with my huskies. I can run or walk your dog and I am also skilled in basic dog obedience skills and pet care. I enjoy interacting with pets in ways to keep them active and happy.

“Very well mannered and both my rescues liked him!!!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting with cats as a kid and later helping with my mother-in-law’s Jack Russell terrier and Siberian husky, as well as my own 100 lb English Lab. During my five years as a rural letter carrier, I earned the nickname "the dog whisperer" for my ability to befriend even wary farm dogs on my routes. Since then, I’ve looked after a mix of local pets, including a reactive Lab-Shepherd and a few energetic pit bull mixes. I’m patient, calm, and consistent, and pets trust me quickly. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule while I pursue my Master's in Behavioral Health. I value structure and routine, which makes it easy for me to keep pets on their normal schedule. Spending time with animals is grounding and rewarding. It balances the intensity of my studies and keeps my days centered on care, calm, and connection. I provide attentive and responsible care for pets, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and overall well-being. In my care, I ensure that feeding schedules are followed, environments are clean and secure, and that pets have appropriate stimulation through play or companionship. I maintain open communication with pet owners, report any health or behavioral concerns promptly, and adapt my care routines to each pet’s unique needs and temperament. My experience in customer service, time management, and careful attention to detail ensures a reliable and trustworthy environment for all animals under my supervision.
