“Lajetta was an amazing sitter for our doggy. She is super kind and loving. She made sure to keep us updated and sent lots of photos! I would definitely use her services again!”
“Annika, John, and Pepper are perfect sitters for our shy dog! She gets lots of time to play/explore, spoiled with cuddles, and loves going over there. They’re always communicative throughout the stay.”
“Heath and Amy were wonderful! They took great care of Eloise and were patient and attentive to her timidness with new people. I appreciated the communication, updates and photos. Eloise got along great with their pup and they played and enjoyed each others company. I will book Eloise a stay with Health and Amy again in the future! Thanks again for taking care of my sweet girl.”
“Our pup took to Juan shortly after meeting him and she usually takes time to warm up to strangers. It was clear that he was patient and really listened to her needs. She had a great weekend. Loved the photo updates that Juan shared too. Would use him again.”
“Barry and his dog Shakka are just who we were hoping for. Our active dog seems to have had a really good stay. We got updates with pictures from Barry, that showed us a happy dog. We will be using him again when we can’t take our pup with us. Thanks Barry”
“Peter is the best! We loved Peter’s stories and pictures about our dog while we were out of town for a week. She was very happy staying with Peter. He and his son were very thoughtful with her.”
“Chava watched our dog during our wedding weekend and it was such a huge help! Penny came back happy and tuckered, which means she must have had a fun time. Thank you!!!”
“Christopher has a great yard for dogs to play in and I enjoyed the photos and videos he sent during our dog's stay with him. He seems insightful of dogs' communication and was able to handle our dog's protectiveness around meal times. I really appreciated Chris' communication and that there weren't a lot of other dogs there at the same time so I didn't have to worry about unknown dog group dynamics. I will gladly book with him again in the future.”
“Amber provided excellent care. Otis had a great time! We wanted Otis to experience more socialization with other dogs and he had two days of fun and playing with Amber and her family. Her location is perfect for travel out of PDX.”
“Another fantastic stay! So grateful for Lisa and how comfortable our guy is at her home upon drop off and pickup. Great communication daily, very kind and gentle person.”
“Ron's home is an ideal place for a dog with everything from a kind and dog-savy owner to a fenced yard and Emma-the-friendly-playmate. This was a first visit but it certainly won't be the last.”
“Don took amazing care of our pup, Indigo, while we were out of town. It's always nerve wracking to leave your dog with someone new, but during our meet and greet we could tell that he was extremely caring and would make her feel at home. We received pictures multiple times a day which made us feel at ease. Don and his wife took Indigo on walks, played with her, and even gave her a warm blanket for her bed. They really got to know her and treated her like their own. We could enjoy our vacation knowing that Indigo was in safe and caring hands. We will definitely be booking with Don again and would highly recommend him!”
“Another wonderful visit for Maggie with Dawn! She's the best! Maggie is so loved and cared for while she is here. Endless play and lots of walks. Not a thing to worry about while she's with Dawn.”
“This was the first time we had left Jazzie and Sadie with Sandy but I am happy to say, they came home both tired and happy!! We are planning to leave them there for a much longer stay and feel confident that the girls will be well taken care of. Thank you Sandy!”
“Amy was great! Very accommodating, responded quickly and sent plenty of pictures and videos. There was never a doubt that Treble would enjoy his time and was safe. When I come back, I’m definitely going with Amy again!”
“Brett and Angela were wonderful with my pooch Pia and I would highly recommend them to any of my friends or family. They kept me updated throughout with pictures and took my pup on various adventures (one was a doggy treat library!!). Thanks so much to you both, we will definitely reach out when we need a sitter again 🙂”
About: I have had dogs since I was 3 years old. Currently do not have a dog of my own but still dog sit for my mom when she goes out of town or comes visits me. Have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes and puppies. Young professional in seasonal type job. My work is currently in the slow season so have plenty of time for dogs/puppies. I also have all my weekends available to puppy sit. I live in an apartment but there are plenty of walking trails and parks nearby. I also have plenty of time off and no weekend commitments so I can stay at your home so the pups are more comfortable.
“Emily and Erik have been wonderful with our dog Blitz. Blitz loves to come play with their dog Lennox and we get updates and are never concerned about leaving him in their care. Definitely recommend this family for your dogs care.”
About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since a young age and have recently adopted a Great Pyrenees mix that has taken many hours of training and desensitizing to the world due to his difficult prior life. I adore my interactions with dogs and will treat them as if they are my own. I am currently not working but will be going back to work part-time over the next couple months. Right now my schedule is open and I spend most my time with my dog at home or socializing/playing with him on a friend's property with many different types of dogs. I have a yard with a 4 foot fence lining one side, 6 foot along the rest and a two story house with a basement. My rescue dog gets along great with other dogs and would love to have the company. I have many toys and games for dogs that come over as well as a dog friendly neighborhood and parks to walk in.

“He was very communicative and even did extra things that I forgot to ask him to do in the midst of travel prep — e.g., taking out my garbage bins. Highly recommend!”
“Sheila was great with our cat! She spent extra time and sent lots of great photos and videos. Great communication throughout. Would happily recommend and rebook.”
About: Here’s a unique and genuine "About Me" section for your dog-sitting profile: --- Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs, from laid-back pups to those with boundless energy. Growing up, I was lucky enough to have two amazing dogs that I cherished, and now my partner and I are eager to welcome a dog into our lives—but we’re not quite ready for the full-time commitment. Dog sitting gives me the perfect chance to share my love for dogs while gaining even more experience with different breeds and personalities. Whether your dog needs a calm, cozy environment or an active day filled with play, I’m here to provide the care and attention they deserve! Currently an online student and not working so my schedule is quite flexible! I am willing to work with clients on what works best for them. I currently do not have any pets but how I care for clients pets is entirely different based on the pets and clients needs. I am very attentive, plenty of walks, pets, and play!
About: My name is Bri. I'm currently a student at Portland State University. I'm studying Arts and Letters and am looking forward to graduating in the next year. With the exception of this current year, I've lived with a dog all my life. I am without a doubt a "dog person". As a child, one of my favorite memories was talking my dog for a run around the neighborhood. I would ride my bike and let me dog run along with me. Most of my experience is working with big dogs, but i believe little dogs are great too! I'm looking forward to working as a dog walker because of the flexible schedule. I'm in class on Mondays and Wednesdays, and the time I'm not in class I can spend walking dogs.
About: I’ve been working in the animal care industry since I could first have a job and have owned pets, of all kinds, my whole life! I work in animal control in a nearby county so I am dedicated to pets living their happiest lives ❤️ I have previous experience as a veterinary technician for several years and am highly capable and knowledgeable for any pet I am entrusted with. Nervous/scared dogs do not bother me and I know how to be safe and gentle with them. I have experience in medicating pets that are elderly or special needs. Reptiles and small animals don’t scare me and I love all the creepy crawlies! I am a rabbit owner so I am experienced in handling and can even help trim nails if needed (this goes for all pets). I have 4 dogs of my own and am happy to offer care from my own home to any friendly, small dog. Please reach out with any questions and we can discuss how to best and most safely care for your beloved pets! 💖 I am a queer woman and would love to work with other LGBTQIA 🏳️🌈 families! I work a standard Monday through Friday, 8:30-5 pm. I am available for morning and evening pop ins and walks. Boarding within my own home is an option for small, pet friendly dogs. I can also come out to visit multiple times a day on a weekend for boarding within your home. I have a fully fenced yard that is 100% secure and is new as of 2024. I have 3 small mixed breed dogs (~15lbs), a Bernese mountain dog, and a small house rabbit within my home. The rabbit is within a pen and will come out for supervised run around time. So long as your dog cannot jump into her pen and is good with the other dogs, I am happy to have them in my home! All of my dogs are very well socialized and I have always been the pet sitting house for my friends and family. My youngest dog is kenneled during the day. My roommate also works from home and lets the dogs outside periodically throughout the day! As long as your dog is house trained and not known to be destructive, they can be free roam within a bedroom or kenneled throughout the day and let out periodically. For drop in visits or boarding within your house, I request to meet your dog first with you so that they may know me and it is less stressful and safer for me when entering into their space later! Positive reinforcement and association is how I work so treats will be had with your approval in case of allergies or dietary restrictions.
“Kayla took excellent care of my two cats while we were out of town for a week. One of them is 15, in the middle of chemo treatments for lymphoma, and on SEVERAL medications - Kayla handled it all with ease! Gave us such peace of mind while on vacation.”
“Tayla was amazing! She left detailed notes after each visit with tons of pictures. She was flexible, communicative, and quick to respond to any questions/concerns. My cat can be timid around strangers at times but went up to Tayla immediately. I’d be happy to book her again :)”

“Michelle took such great care of our puppy. I wish I could give more than five stars. Highly recommend and she will be my first choice for future dog sitting.”
“Poppy received excellent care! She got plenty of attention and exercise and came home thoroughly relaxed and tired. A huge difference from other daycare experiences we’ve had where she comes home anxious and stressed.”
“Bangyun was amazing with my pup. Bella her dog is very friendly and had lots of play time and walk together during the stay. You know your baby has been having fun when they can’t wait to go into her house in the morning, jumping out of the car and rushing into the front door! Will re book when needed again definitely! Thank you so much !!! :)”
“Evita is super lovable, responsible, and flexible sitter. Our dog loves going to her home and spend time with her. Thank you for all that you do for Lulo!”

“Anupama took such great care of our dog Mimi! She sent photo updates, communicated well throughout the whole stay, and asked us thoughtful questions about Mimi to help provide the best care for her. Thank you Anu!”
“Haleigh has sat Rocky on a few occasions now when I've been in town for work and can't take him into the office. Appreciate her responsiveness and I know my pup is in trusted hands!”
About: I have availability 24/7 to care! Even as a kid, I’m the one who spent the most time with our pets! Will follow your example instructions just how you want! I’m currently not working, so I have all the time to take care of your pet. No schedule conflicts, so you don’t have to worry :) I have a small place, without much to do outside. But there’s a park less than 3 minutes away for walks. There are stairs to my place as I live on the second floor

“As a new dog dad and Rover app user, I was nervous about the last minute walks that I had to schedule. Luckily Byron was there to save the day and provide my pup the much needed exercise and attention he very much needed. Great professional communication and understanding. Highly recommend Byron!”
“Alex was an amazing dog walker for the year Toby and I lived in St.Johns, he went above and beyond, was able to walk Toby last minute if I needed and always made sure Toby had an amazing time on the days I worked long hours. Toby will miss Alexander and Ruby! Highly recommend!”
“Kate was so sweet and personable! She genuinely has a love for dogs and treated my furbaby as if he was her own! :) She is also very responsive and professional and we truly appreciate her!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I have a natural ability to connect with high-energy and young dogs. I grew up around pets and know how to keep puppies engaged, active, and happy. I treat every dog like my own and will make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. I am currently only working side gigs while I search for fulltime work in the school districts, but that means I am extremely flexible as far as my schedule goes. I currently live in an apartment and am only able to provide in home care (client side), but am more than capable of walking your pet!

About: I have lots of experience with cats and dogs and have2 cats of my own. I’m very flexible with my schedule and reliable. I love animals. I’m very patient loving and caring. I can walk, feed, play and give lots of love and affection. I’ve had dogs growing up and have had experience with pet sitting and walking. I’ve always had cats. I get a long very well with animals. I just need to know ahead of time of their needs. I have had asthma so I use an inhaler and can’t run but I can still walk them and make sure they get exercise. I don’t drive or have a car but I can take the bus or take an Uber or Lyft. I am disabled but still have lots of capability and time to spend time with dog or cats. I’m very flexible and reliable I make sure there’s lots of play time and opportunities to go outside to go on a walk or go to the bathroom. I can’t run due to asthma but I can still play and get exercise in. I give lots of love and attention just like they were my own I am disabled so I have a lot of spare time. I am a student but that’s part time so I still have plenty of time to spend with the pets I have an apartment with a small yard. I feed, bathe, walk, and play with pets staying in my home. They’re aloud on furniture or wherever they’re comfortable. In others’ home, I would care for the pets just as I would in my home unless instructed to do otherwise. Feed, play, cuddle, walk.
“Shannon is very communicative and took the time to do a meet and greet. She also was mindful of the heat and even went out of her way to bring a package in for me. Thanks Shannon!”

About: I’ve taken care of all animals since a young age. I strive to be someone reliable that you can count on and trust with your babies! I have a very flexible schedule since I have my own business and would be more than willing to help other people out with their pet care needs and would make sure to be reliable and always communicate! Making sure that the fur babies have love and feel safe with me is most important so gaining that animals trust. I am a big spoiler and love to play with them and cuddle them! I have a dog of my own so I have experience in everything. Feeding, walking, administering medication, etc…. And also taking to appointments!
“Noemi has been great to work with. She was super patient with while he got used to a new person. Now the walk goes super well and he’s having a good time. Can’t recommend her enough”
