“Sandy and her husband were very welcoming to our dogs, and us! We did a meet and greet first and she introduced her dogs to ours one at a time, and all went well. So nice to not have dogs in a crate or kennel the whole time you are gone, and with Sandy they get to hang out and run around with her 3 Golden Retrievers, inside and safely outside, which is fenced. She sent us pictures while we were gone, of each dog sleeping on the couch. Very accommodating for pick-up and drop-off as well.”
“Julie and her family provided a warm and welcoming household for my dog Dewey. The love for dogs is evident when you meet her and her family, and I was very happy with my decision to leave Dewey with her! She is responsive and clearly has a way with animals. I would definitely use her again or recommend her to friends and family”
About: I have always been “dog” person. I got my first dog when I was 5 and have had multiple dogs since. I was a dog walker for neighbors and friends during adolescence and my teen years. I will make sure your dog is well taken care of! I am currently of of work for the summer because I work for the school district. I have a lot of extra free time to occupy. I have a huge yard and a crate if needed! I also have an 11 year old who loves dogs and would love to interact with some new, friendly puppers.
“Our second fantastic experience with Jade! She is amazing in working with our recent rescue dog who normally has significant separation anxiety. Jade clearly cares deeply about our Tobey. I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I live on a small sheep farm. Dogs will be on long leash outdoors, but lots of room for walks multiple times a day. My dog is very good with other dogs. I work from home most of the time so they will get lots of attention. I work from home, so multiple daily walks and couch cuddles are a typical day with me. I do not leave more than 4-6 hours at a time. I have a fully fenced yard, but since I have livestock, I keep dogs on a long lead so they can explore but also be safe.
“We had Gemma watch our small dog for the second time now and feel lucky to have found her. She is very kind, flexible and caring. Zoey can be anxious with strangers sometimes but that doesn’t seem to be the case with Gemma and her family.”
“Tamra kept my large GSD in her home for a week and took great care of him! He’s a sweet guy but set in his ways so one never knows how he will respond to a new situation…but it was obvious immediately that he felt comfortable with her and was well cared for: long walks, play dates with dog friends, lots of social interaction. I would 100% recommend Tamra!”
“Gayle is great. Her whole setup (house, yard, other pet guest, her own dog) works perfectly for my dog. It’s more like he is on his own vacation than just being boarded. Would absolutely use her again.”
“Shelby is fantastic! Our furbaby was well loved and cared for during his overnight stay. Great communication and photos to share updates. We will reach out to book again in the futur. Thank you, Shelby!”
“Jennifer is amazing! My dog, Koby, has special needs and wants lots of attention. Jennifer truly treated him like her own dog and I’m not sure he wanted to leave! I was really nervous leaving Koby for the week because I’d never left him with anyone other than family. Jennifer set me at ease right away and I got updates and pictures everyday. I’m so happy I found her!”
“My dog has a great time with Bradley. He seemed very happy and got plenty of attention and activity. Bradley wa great in communication, genuine affection for pups. I’d definitely look to Bradley in the future for dog sitting.”
“Diana was amazing with Winston she knew how nervous I was as this was the first time without my pup since I got him. She sent lots of pictures and kept in communication about him. She made him as comfortable as she possibly could her dogs made him feel a little more adventurous in the yard. I will absolutely rebook in the future! Thank you 😊”
“I appreciate Larissa very much. I am very satisfied with Larissa’s services. Larissa is very communicative and shared updates about my pup, which I truly appreciated. I would definitely recommend.”
“Tienne did great with my dog, Sydney. She was really easy to work with and was very flexible and understanding. She is a Vet Tech which made me much more comfortable should any issues arise. I will definitely use Tienne in the future.”
“Angela, (with dog Henry, and cat Dingus) created a Fantastic Christmas for Freddie with an absolute last minute booking after our other potential boarder was not a good fit. Great photos and video.”
About: I’ve owned and fostered both dogs and cats my entire life. I understand how stressful it can be finding someone to watch your pet when you travel- I’d love to help ease some of that. I’m comfortable administering medications and navigating the different needs of your pets. I’m currently working part time from home. I have a fully fenced in backyard and I’m home more than I’m not. I’m also training for a marathon so if you have a dog that enjoys longer walks or short runs I’d be happy to take them out for those! My yard is fully fenced and my home is kept clean. I can crate your dog or give them a separate space if that’s easier. I will follow your lead to make your dog or cat as comfortable as possible.

“Isabella was a perfect pet sitter for my two cats and my 14 chickens! She did a great job meeting all of their needs, went above the expectations by helping with packages and made me feel secure leaving my pets and farm animals in her care. I will definitely be rebooking for my next pet sitting need with Isabella. She paid attention to all the details and does a great job communicating about how things are going back at home while I travel.”
“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: I have taken care of cats and all animals since a very young age! I am very confident in cleaning, feeding, administering medications, even bathing! I used to work at a vet/daycare/grooming job and now work as a veterinary assistant and have been around cats for a long time! I have 3 happy kitties of my own!
“Alivia was great with our two golden retrievers! She did drop ins for us during the day while we were working. She brought our dogs toys and treats. Phoebe and Winston give this rover sitter a A++! We will definitely use Alivia in the future!”
“Tamra was great with my kitty who is not very social. I was nervous that Punkin would be afraid and hide while I was away, but she took to Tamra and her home right away. I received a picture text within 5 mins of leaving her all snuggled and settled in! Tamra sent me pictures of Punkin throughout her 4 day, 3 night stay which put me at ease. I would definitely use here again.”
About: Having been around cats my entire life and having been a cat sitter for friends and family since I was in my early teens, I have experience in everything from bottle feeding kittens to making sure that senior cats get their medicine on time every day and everything in between! I understand that while life may make demands on our time, that our fur babies still need and deserve uncompromised attention and love.
“Lily is awesome! She takes great care of Shy and Shy loves her. I always know Shy is in good hands when Lily is watching her. Lily keeps me updated with pictures and texts. She's 100 percent reliable and professional. I highly recommend Lily and grateful to have her watch Shy.”
About: I've had cats throughout my childhood and adult life, and I've lived with cats more often than not. What I love about cats is how varying their personalities are, and they are so unique in that sense because you often times cannot tell what they're going to be like as an adult when they're a kitten. If I had it my way, I'd be sleeping with cats in my bed every night.
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: Hi! I'm Shealee, and I've always loved cats. I know every cat has their own personality, so I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My love for animals led me to work as an Animal Care Attendant at an animal hospital that offered hospital care, daycare, plus boarding services. There, I cared for cats of all ages, personalities, plus comfort levels. My responsibilities included preparing meals, refreshing water, monitoring behavior, providing individual playtime, maintaining clean living spaces, plus making sure each cat was comfortable throughout the day. Working with so many different cats taught me that every feline is unique. Some love chasing toys or soaking up attention, while others simply appreciate a quiet presence that respects their space. No matter your cat's personality, I'll provide care that matches their individual needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your cat. I'll treat your furry family member like my own while sending regular updates plus photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful kitty!
About: Hi! I’m Noelle, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. From a young age, I’ve been fortunate enough to grow up in a household that nurtured a love for all creatures. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, horses, pigs, hamsters, and even a few cows. This diverse experience has helped me develop a deep understanding of different animal behaviors and care requirements, whether it’s a playful puppy, a quiet cat, or a curious hamster. In addition to taking care of my own pets at home, I’ve had the privilege of helping friends, family, and neighbors with their animals, which has allowed me to build my skill set even further. I’m comfortable with everything from basic pet care tasks like feeding and cleaning up after animals, to more specialized needs like administering medications or managing animals with unique health requirements. My experience also extends to larger animals like horses and pigs, where I’ve learned about proper feeding, grooming, and the importance of creating a comfortable and safe environment. I’m highly familiar with setting and sticking to a pet’s daily routine. Whether it’s a puppy needing regular walks or a senior cat requiring extra time to relax, I take great pride in ensuring each animal’s needs are met. This experience has taught me to quickly adapt to each pet’s individual personality and preferences, making sure they feel secure and loved while you're away. If your pet enjoys outdoor adventures, I love taking them to the park, going for walks, or engaging in playtime, giving them the exercise and mental stimulation they need. On the flip side, if your pet prefers quiet time, I’m more than happy to spend the day lounging at home, providing them with companionship and relaxation. I understand that every pet is different, so I always adjust my approach based on what will make them feel most comfortable. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll carefully follow the routines and guidelines you’ve set in place. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s preferences, whether they love playing outside or prefer to stay indoors, and I’ll make sure their environment is calm, clean, and loving. I know how important it is for your pet to feel like they’re in safe hands, and I go above and beyond to ensure they get the attention and care they need. At home, I have several pets of my own, so I’m used to feeding schedules, cleaning up after them multiple times a day, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to keep pets happy and healthy, and I bring that same energy to every pet I care for. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll take the time to understand their routine — whether they go outside or stay indoors, how you feed and interact with them — and do my best to follow your care style as closely as possible

I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’m here to give your pet the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you're away. As a part-time nursing student and mom of two, I’ve learned how to balance a busy schedule with care and attention to detail. qualities that I also bring to pet care. I work relief shifts as a behavioral health support specialist, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows time during the day and weekends to dedicate to animals. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring is what I do, whether it’s my own kids or someone’s beloved pet, I’m fully committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. In my home, pets have plenty of space to play and relax! I live in a duplex with a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel at home. Whether I’m caring for pets in my space or at a client’s home, I follow their usual routines closely; including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions.

“I was in town to visit Silver Falls SP and Sandy was the perfect sitter for Charlie. If I didn’t know better, he was sad to leave. She has a warm home and loves animals. She treated Charlie like her own and he was so happy to spend time with her. Thank you Sandy!”
“Hailey and her family were so wonderful to our Kai. They watched him while we went hiking in Silver Falls. She sent pics and updates so we knew Kai was in excellent hands. Kai was happy and relaxed when we picked him up.”
“Tawny was absolutely amazing with my 10 month old puppy, Stella - truly treated her as if she was her own. Additionally, she was always incredibly flexible with hours, sent awesome update photos throughout the day, and made the whole process a delight. I would highly recommend!”

“Candace is a wonderful dog mom!! From the moment we met I knew Maizie would be in good hands. Candace is warm and nurturing but also aware of the mischief puppies can get into. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and kept me updated on Maizie’s progress. Maizie had fun meeting the other animals around the farm. We are hoping to leave her for a longer time next time. I know Maizie is looking forward to seeing Candace-mom and her new big brother playmate, Wilbur again. She had a great time!”
“Jennifer has been an amazing sitter for Peggy, our little frenchie. Peggy is always excited to go to Jennifer’s and play with her doggy friends. She always come home happy and exhausted, which is perfect. Jennifer is very communicative, understanding, and always go above and beyond for us and our Peggy. We’re very happy to have found her!”

“Gayle was so good with our girls. She helped them get through their nerves upon our departure and was wonderful throughout the even after some displays of poor manners early on.

About: I have lifelong experience caring for animals of all kinds! I grew up on a farm, where caring for horses, livestock, and other animals was simply part of everyday life. Today, I continue that passion by fostering dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens through my local humane society, giving animals a safe, loving place to grow and thrive until they find their forever homes. I also have experience caring for small animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits, so whether your family includes four hooves, four paws, or tiny whiskers, they'll be in capable hands. As a teacher, I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to routines and individual needs, and I know every animal has its own personality. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra care, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax while you're away. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making animal care a natural part of my daily routine and ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide consistent, attentive care in a calm, loving environment. You can also expect regular updates and photos, so you'll always know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I've been an animal lover as long as I can remember. When I was 9 years old, my Dad got me my first Golden Retriever for Valentine's Day 1998. Her name was Star. I wanted a Golden because I fell in love with Shadow from "Homeward Bound". Star was my best friend, and we trained together in Canine Good Citizenry and agility. She could jump through hula hoops, over my arm, and she knew all sorts of tricks. I also love horses and used to spend summers and spring breaks on my cousin's farm in Apopka, Florida where she was the Barn Manager for a gal who rode in the Irish Olympics for the Equestrian Team. I had my own horse when I was younger, but we sadly had to sell her when my mother passed away when I was 9 years old. I've had dogs and cats off and on my entire life, but sadly, I just recently moved to Oregon and do not have any pets of my own right now for a few reasons: The first is that I'm working diligently to get established in Oregon and currently have a Mon-Thursday schedule with the City of Salem that requires me to be away from home for over 10 hours a day. Second, my roommate has a sick and aging cat who is not doing well, and we do not want to stress him out by adding pets to the house right now. Hopefully, my roommate will be able to reconsider when things change, but for now, Bok Choy (and his comfort) is our main priority at my house. Third, I'm hoping to move my Dad out to Oregon within the next 3 years, but for now, he is living alone as a retiree in Georgia, where I grew up. He is very attached to our dog Hank, and even though I'm definitely Hank's favorite person, I couldn't stand the thought of separating those two because I felt like my Dad needs Hank more than I do as Hank is his reason to get up in the morning! I miss Hank more than words can express, but I think we made the right call because Hank does not like being alone, and Dad can accommodate this as he is retired whereas I am in the main career years. I have previous dog sitting experience, but sadly, my identity was hacked, and I lost all of my photos on my Facebook account and lost many of my contacts through my old email address that I lost access to. I have also done amateur dog training and hope to get a professional certification in dog training within the next 12 months. I am happy to house sit during my work week if you only have cats that need tending after office hours. I won't be accepting house sitting for dogs unless there is an understanding of my work schedule and the dog has access to a doggy door and a yard or puppy pads are used during the day. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who can be with your dog during the business day instead of requesting me if you have dogs and need assistance during my work week (Mon-Thurs). This is a Side Hustle for me, but it also the more meaningful of my jobs because I love animals more than anything else in this world, and being around them is good for my mental health. I currently work Monday-Thursday until 4:30PM so it will be difficult for me to provide overnight dog sitting until Thursday after 5 PM unless your dog has access to a doggy door or puppy pads. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who does this full time if you need assistance during business hours Monday-Thursday. When I am at your house, your pet is my priority. If they need exercise or stimulation, we will make that happen. I will almost feel guilty for getting paid for it because it will literally be my pleasure. I will ask you to leave detailed instructions that will make my life easier and expect you to extend trust to me to do my job well. I understand it is difficult and that trust is earned and not freely given, but we need to have a clear discussion before you leave about what your expectations are so I can decide If I can meet those in a way that will not cause me undue anxiety. If you need someone after 5PM Mon-Thursday or anytime on the weekends, I am your sitter!

“Sandy and her husband were very welcoming to our dogs, and us! We did a meet and greet first and she introduced her dogs to ours one at a time, and all went well. So nice to not have dogs in a crate or kennel the whole time you are gone, and with Sandy they get to hang out and run around with her 3 Golden Retrievers, inside and safely outside, which is fenced. She sent us pictures while we were gone, of each dog sleeping on the couch. Very accommodating for pick-up and drop-off as well.”

“Our second fantastic experience with Jade! She is amazing in working with our recent rescue dog who normally has significant separation anxiety. Jade clearly cares deeply about our Tobey. I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I live on a small sheep farm. Dogs will be on long leash outdoors, but lots of room for walks multiple times a day. My dog is very good with other dogs. I work from home most of the time so they will get lots of attention. I work from home, so multiple daily walks and couch cuddles are a typical day with me. I do not leave more than 4-6 hours at a time. I have a fully fenced yard, but since I have livestock, I keep dogs on a long lead so they can explore but also be safe.
“Tamra kept my large GSD in her home for a week and took great care of him! He’s a sweet guy but set in his ways so one never knows how he will respond to a new situation…but it was obvious immediately that he felt comfortable with her and was well cared for: long walks, play dates with dog friends, lots of social interaction. I would 100% recommend Tamra!”
“Gayle is great. Her whole setup (house, yard, other pet guest, her own dog) works perfectly for my dog. It’s more like he is on his own vacation than just being boarded. Would absolutely use her again.”
“Shelby is fantastic! Our furbaby was well loved and cared for during his overnight stay. Great communication and photos to share updates. We will reach out to book again in the futur. Thank you, Shelby!”

“Michael did a great job with Kermit. He is compassionate and contacted us with concerns. Kermit was treated like part of the family. Frequent photos were really appreciated.”
“Arielle was amazing!!! This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone other than family! She made us feel so at ease & remained in contact with us throughout his stay! She sent us pictures so we could see how he was doing & it looked like he was on vacation!!! She accepted him last minute & he came home so content & exhausted from his playtime! We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”
About: Hi! I’m Noelle, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. From a young age, I’ve been fortunate enough to grow up in a household that nurtured a love for all creatures. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, horses, pigs, hamsters, and even a few cows. This diverse experience has helped me develop a deep understanding of different animal behaviors and care requirements, whether it’s a playful puppy, a quiet cat, or a curious hamster. In addition to taking care of my own pets at home, I’ve had the privilege of helping friends, family, and neighbors with their animals, which has allowed me to build my skill set even further. I’m comfortable with everything from basic pet care tasks like feeding and cleaning up after animals, to more specialized needs like administering medications or managing animals with unique health requirements. My experience also extends to larger animals like horses and pigs, where I’ve learned about proper feeding, grooming, and the importance of creating a comfortable and safe environment. I’m highly familiar with setting and sticking to a pet’s daily routine. Whether it’s a puppy needing regular walks or a senior cat requiring extra time to relax, I take great pride in ensuring each animal’s needs are met. This experience has taught me to quickly adapt to each pet’s individual personality and preferences, making sure they feel secure and loved while you're away. If your pet enjoys outdoor adventures, I love taking them to the park, going for walks, or engaging in playtime, giving them the exercise and mental stimulation they need. On the flip side, if your pet prefers quiet time, I’m more than happy to spend the day lounging at home, providing them with companionship and relaxation. I understand that every pet is different, so I always adjust my approach based on what will make them feel most comfortable. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll carefully follow the routines and guidelines you’ve set in place. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s preferences, whether they love playing outside or prefer to stay indoors, and I’ll make sure their environment is calm, clean, and loving. I know how important it is for your pet to feel like they’re in safe hands, and I go above and beyond to ensure they get the attention and care they need. At home, I have several pets of my own, so I’m used to feeding schedules, cleaning up after them multiple times a day, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to keep pets happy and healthy, and I bring that same energy to every pet I care for. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll take the time to understand their routine — whether they go outside or stay indoors, how you feed and interact with them — and do my best to follow your care style as closely as possible
“Allison was amazing with our pup! Pepper loved her right away and I could tell from the meet and greet that this was a great fit. Allison was communicative, engaged and helpful with every step of setting up our dog’s boarding. She sent pictures and updates during our trip so we knew our girl was happy and cozy. We are excited to have found someone we feel so comfortable leaving our girl with and will definitely be connecting with her again in the future!”
“Kathrine is an AMAZING sitter! I went out of town for 5 days and left my pup with her at her home. I immediately felt comfortable leaving her there when I dropped her off. She sent pics, videos, and updated me on all things (eating, pooping, etc.). Her dog, Ophelia, was the sweetest companion and I could tell her and my dog were besties from the pics she sent! They went on multiple walks a day, and even a weekend adventure! I will definitely be using Kathrine again in the future!”
