“Paul and Arnel do a great job of caring for our pooch. They give her not just feeding, treats, and walks but clearly -- from great photos sent daily -- lots of affection and curled-up comfort. As repeat customers, it's a real comfort for *us* knowing we can leave her in such good hands.”
“Kristen is fantastic! This was the second time she cared for our dog Watson while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier. Her communication is excellent, with thoughtful updates and great photos sent to us throughout his stay. Most importantly, Watson clearly loves spending time with her. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust!”
“Wrigley and Smash had a great week at Sandy's! We received photo updates throughout the week and the boys always looked happy and relaxed. They love Sandy and we love knowing that they are being so well cared for!”
“Noemi and her family were a perfect fit. They were thoughtful, caring and I'm pretty sure our Ella would have moved in. Ella came back happy, healthy and I could tell she had a great time. Will book again next time. Thanks Noemi (and fam)!”
“Jason’s family took great care of my dog— it’s especially special because I was nervous about having a dog sitter over the holidays. But Cosmo did great! And I appreciated getting little reportbacks and photos everyday. Thank you!”
“Carrie was such a great sitter for our shy, older dog. Easy to communicate with and sent us lots of photos throughout the stay. It was very clear that our dog had a great time!! Would definitely recommend and hope we can book again for any future trips!”
“Erin took such great care of Theo and gave us frequent photo updates on our little guy. He got along and I'm pretty sure made great friends with their dog as well. Overall really wonderful experience and would trust Erin to care for Theo again!”
“This was Reggie’s first time staying with Kris. It’s was pretty hot those 3 days and 2 nights but luckily Kris’ air conditioned home kept out hound cool and they played in the doggy pool to cool off during the day. We appreciated the photos and updates Kris provided. We would definitely recommend Kris.”
“I feel so lucky that Leah and Chris are going to be taking care of my senior dog in a few weeks. We had a meet & greet and a trial sleepover. Although that trial was just a few hours, they sent lots of sweet photos and my guy was clearly being well cared for. Chris & Leah were focused on his comfort and well-being. It brings me invaluable peace knowing I can take my trip out of state for a week and leave my darling boy with such caring and attentive people.”
“Emily and Bowie were such amazing hosts. I know my pup Chommy had a great time and felt right at home. I really enjoyed all of the pictures and videos Emily sent along the way! :)”
“I highly recommend Gayle! She was so accommodating with my dog who stayed at her house for 6 days. I appreciated that she sent daily photos with detailed updates. My dog always looked happy and I can tell he loved his daily walks. He got along with their dogs as well. It was great to see him look so comfortable and happy. They have a big backyard perfect for dogs to run around and nice covered patio too. I especially loved seeing him cuddling with them on the couch. I will definitely book my dog with Gayle again.”
“Frida was awesome with communication and taking care of Ashton. He seems like he had a great time, we’ll definitely be back in touch. He seemed super comfortable and happy when I picked him up.”
“Breann did a great job. My dog has some sensitivities, but Breann ensured she was comfortable and safe. She asked good questions during our meet and greet, which demonstrated critical thought toward safety and adjusting her effort to each dog. Breann has other dogs, both of whom had different tolerances for play than my higher energy, large hound. She managed them together well. She provided us with frequent photo updates, and would have been available if we needed anything. I recommend booking with her.”
“Josh did great with our cantankerous 16 year old chihuahua! He allowed Max to get acquainted with the other dogs but also gave Max his own space to come and go as he needed to accommodate his frequent nap schedule. Josh sent daily updates and was very pleasant to work with. We would definitely recommend him for boarding needs!”
“Hayleigh took good care of Enigma for 19 days. She’s very happy that she has playmates at Hayleighs and a yard to roam around. We’ll definitely be back at her place next time we need dog boarding.”
“Serena was so sweet with Chewy and sent photos of him and Nugget on there walks and playing together. Great communication and responsiveness! We would definitely book again with Serena!”
“Kelley and her son are absolutely LOVELY and made our anxious dog’s first overnight with them just wonderful. Even after just 24 hours we could see that our furry baby was at ease with them and relaxed in their home. Kelley is a great communicator- responsive and clear. I am thrilled to have found such a safe and loving ‘second home’ for our pup.”
“Linda was an excellent sitter for our sometimes challenging dog. She kept him happy and entertained throughout the whole 5-day stay, including regular walks as well as visits to local off-leash areas and Sniffspots. She was also great with communication and sending photo and video updates. Eneldo already misses her and can't wait until we leave town again! We highly recommend Linda.”

“Kind and communicative. Felt comfortable with Mindy & Daniel right away (as did our cat)! Sent sweet photos and updates daily, and we knew our “Tiki” was in good, kind, and gentle hands.”

“This is the first time I have used Avery for the sitting of my two cats Ozzy and Luke. Avery came into my life at a time where I had Medical concerns that needed by full attention and to know that my boys were taken care of twice a day and with the utmost care meant everything to me. She even did little tasks around the house that kept my home running when I was not there to oversee it. In my mind she went above and beyond. You cannot go wrong with choosing Avery and she is very conscientious caring and responsible! I have ended up moving away and may not see much of her going forward but I think we will be staying close friends now and into the future! She's that kind of person! Thank you Avery!”
“Tiana was absolutely wonderful with my kitty! Having moved to a new place, I was a little worried about leaving my cat but Tiana eased my worries during the meet and greet itself. She gave me regular updates and pictures and followed all of my instructions. She even cleaned and laundered before she left which she totally did not have to but was very much appreciated. I came home to a happy kitty!I cannot recommend her enough and will be definitely booking her services again!”
“We hired Jasper & Jaydon for house sitting as well as drop in visits for our pup and two cats. They were communicative, timely, respectful, and had quick response time. They sent photos and updates frequently, which brought great comfort to me. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable pet care. We hope to have them be our sitter for a long time coming!”
“Serena has watched my cat several times and she’s wonderful! She’s very responsive, attentive, and reliable. She even gets my shy cat out of her shell. I really appreciate her.”
“I have an anxious cat and the last time I left him for several days, he was more than happy to see me when I got home. He was a clinging wreck. But Niki must be a cat whisperer, because--yes, he was thrilled to see me, but settled right down. I love normal. So grateful.”
“Shad is a responsible & kind dogsitter who takes time to make sure our dog is comfortable & gets some enrichment for the day while we are away. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa was great! She watched our two cats and our fish while we were out of town. Communication was great, she showed up as expected, and was eager to catch some photos to share with us. Would highly recommend.”

“When my boyfriend picked Gizmo up he said he just seemed like he wanted to stay with Joanna. This is a big deal because he’s super attached to us and we were anxious about leaving him with someone new. Joanna posted a video of him during the day so I knew what he was up to and didn’t have to worry at all. Her house is set up for dogs to be comfortable with a lovely sunroom and nice big yard. Joanna had a good energy that I trusted to take good care of my special boy. I will def be using her again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️”

We appreciated their flexibility and willingness to attend to each dog’s individual needs, providing opportunities for entertainment, nourishment, and relaxation as necessary. They provided updates and pictures and were adaptable with their care during the rainy weather. We would be happy to use their services again!”
“Very impressed with the genuine care and communication from Zo. My dog Bodhi can be rather anxious, so I was rather worried about how he would do meeting Zo for the first time. I had visions of him pacing around and barking. Instead I received pictures of him totally chilled out, relaxing and napping in the sunshine Highly recommend.”
“Ryan was an amazing sitter for our dog Levi! He’s super nice, attentive, and made us feel at ease by sending us lots of picture updates throughout the day. Levi has special eating instructions, and Ryan followed them perfectly! We really appreciate the care and attention he gave Levi. He was clearly happy and comfortable!! We’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future! 😊”

“Jenni is great. She has helped us get our high energy dog out for walks while we are at work. She is patient with our little pup, and he always seems happy on days they walk. She always takes great pictures of our dog, and is very communicative about what is going on with our dog. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Kai is wonderful and picks up on all my fur babies traits without me even mentioning anything. Which shows me that they are being ever so present with her, and I adore that.”
About: As your pet sitter, I am not just watching your animals; I am getting to know them. From their routines to their quirks, I care for every dog and cat like they’re my own, so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have been housesitting and caring for other people's pets for over a decade. As a pet parent myself, I also know that clear communication and photo updates are a must so that you can feel confident and relaxed while you are away that your babies are being well taken care of. Currently, my schedule is open so that I have all the time to dedicate to your furry family members! For overnight care I do request a minimum of 2 nights. I will take care of walks, feedings, litter boxes for cats [if requested] and easily administered medications. If staying overnight I will treat your house like my own. I can bring in mail, take out trash, and water plants if needed.
“Kira is awesome! She is kind, communicates in a timely manner, and is great with our pup. We appreciated the photos of Caly, and the screenshot of her walking route. Looking forward to using her services!”
“Makenzie is amazing! She always includes tons of photos and is great at communicating around anything with the regular walks. My dog is very nervous around new people, and she immediately loved Makenzie. She has a great presence with dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Megan is communicative and on time, I feel at ease having her walk our pups. One of our pups can be reactive on leash and she followed our guidance and took great care. Loved seeing the videos and pictures!”
“Jordan took really good care of our dog. My dog has a missing toe and needs to wear a boot and Jordan was very careful about that before he took him on a nice neighborhood walk.”
“Mark was fantastic with Oso and was good at being firm but gentle. Oso seemed happy and pleasantly tired! Definitely would have Mark walk him again and would recommend Mark!”

She is very patient when my dog is wiley, she has learned my dog's routines and aided greatly in her training, she is honest and forthcoming, and she spends quality time with my dog. I really cannot speak highly enough of Natasha and how lucky I feel to have found her and her services.”
About: Hello! I'm a very conscientious and loving pet walker/drop-in sitter who will go above and beyond to make sure your four-legged family member feels safe and loved. I've had dogs and cats my whole life (varying sizes/breeds), and have had a range of experiences with them, including handling medical conditions, training, and making sure they get enough exercise. I also used to work at a pet retail store for multiple years and have gained a wealth of experience in how best to care for pets. I would love to help give your pet some love and care while you're away! I'm happy to give couch cuddles, play time, walks, and basic needs. I look forward to taking care of your pet and giving them great care! I have a flexible remote work schedule most days, so my availability for sitting visits is pretty open! I am available for drop-in visits and walks. When visiting a pet in your home, I am very respectful of your space and focus on making sure your pet is taken care of. I check all food and water bowls, making sure they’re clean, making sure the environment is still safe how you left it, and giving them any needed enrichment like play time, cuddles, walks, etc that you’ve outlined.
“Anna was so professional and considerate of our house and our old dog. She asked all the right questions and made sure he was comfortable with her before we booked. Absolutely would recommend!”
“Amazing dog walker. Jasper was on time and went above and beyond in caring for our pup. On an exceptionally rainy day they lent her a doggy rain jacket, and left us with a personally made pet portrait 💕”
“Shad was a kind, courteous dog walker for my fussy angel Lunchbox. Great communicator, understood my dogs needs, and responsible. Added bonus was he worked around my mobility following a surgery which was an extra kind aspect of working with Shad. Highly recommend!”
“Jade was really great with my dog, Ember who can sometimes be reactive on walks. It was a relief to have someone who has a lot of knowledge and experience care for her while I'm at work, plus my pup loved her. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Nick is the best! He’s reliable, kind, and our pup LOVES him. Looking forward to more walks soon. I can’t recommend Krissy and Nicholas highly enough!”
About: Besides my experience with my own pets I began volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society at 17. After that I went on to dog sit for various different families part time for around 3 years. I have a big window of availability currently. I’m going back to school in the fall, but until then I am just working part time. I work for my grandpa, so my schedule is super flexible! When I dog sit in the clients home I will follow your instructional list for feeding/walks/ activities/ grooming ect. I have car so I can take your pup to nearby parks/ dog parks if you would like, or just for a classic stroll around your neighborhood if you prefer. For clients that would prefer I take car if you dog in my home I have a fenced in back yard and live near several park so we can go on several adventures. Or just chill at home if you have a senior/ more low energy dog. My only deal breaker is that your dog isn’t reactive towards cats.

Not only did Margaret and Zo treat her like the queen she is, they loved and pampered her like their own. I came home to a relaxed pup who was hesitant to leave (why would she want to?!)!
