“Daun did an excellent job taking care of our cats. She really went the extra mile, taking plenty of time to play with them and keep the litter tidy. She sent us plenty of updates and was great to work with. Highly recommended!”


About: I’ve completed numerous house and pet sits through another website (with all 5-star reviews) and I’ve also cared for many cats for friends while they travel. I understand that cats each have their own personality - some love cuddles and company, while others need quiet space and gentle respect. I’m patient, observant, and good at earning a cat’s trust on their terms. I make sure litter boxes are kept clean, fresh water is always available, and feeding routines are followed precisely. I also have experience administering oral medications and caring for cats with special diets or health needs.

“Emily did an amazing job; my original sitter had something come up so I needed someone last minute and she was understanding, flexible, and communicative. I could tell from the pictures she sent me that our cat loved the attention from her. Would definitely book her again!”


About: Cats are my personal favorite! I have had a Russian blue, a black cat and, currently, a tuxedo cat. I really enjoy connecting with cats, earning their trust and building a relationship with them. I love to spend time with cats, whether it's kitty snuggles or just being in the same room, I cherish every second I get to spend with my cat buddies.

About: I have sporadically taken care of cats since my teens. I've also helped take care of cats for my landlords while they were away. I love cats as well as dogs. Although I've never owned a cat before personally,I do enjoy providing the best care possible for an animal.

I’ve grown up with animals and currently care for two of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs extra playtime, a shy rescue that needs patience, or a senior pet with special care needs — I meet them where they’re at, with love and consistency. I just moved to Oregon from Nevada and am currently settling in and building a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time and availability to focus on pet care. I’m not tied to a full-time job right now, so your pets will get lots of attention, walks, cuddles, and updates throughout the day. Whether you need someone reliable for daily drop-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here and fully present for your pets. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone — and I don’t take that lightly. Your pets — and your home — treated with care and respect. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I understand I’m being trusted with something deeply personal. I approach every visit with respect, cleanliness, and attention to detail. I follow your instructions closely, keep doors locked, double-check gates, and make sure your pets stick to their routine so they feel safe and secure.

About: I was Blessed with a Tortoiseshell cat for 15 years named Penelope Rose. Pets truly help us through the hardest times of our lives and we help them in return. They do find us, for sure. She was developed cat asthma (rare) and medication was not helping her so I put her down and that was my last pet years ago. I grew up having a grey Siamese cat. Both cats followed me everywhere. Every cat I meet has a unique personality that I love getting to know each and every one. Cats make me feel very calm & relaxed and I feel I have that same effect on them as well. I like the idea of sometime developing a cat toy line because I used to make so many homemade, safe ones when I was growing up. I understand Dogs & Cats and they seem to get me too. I used to foster a 3-legged handi-capable cat and an amazing 1-eyed cat (who is older than 20 years and is now blind). She keeps on going that sweet girl! Shes got a great will to live. I’m familiar with wound-care and post-vet care. I’m in tune with cats and understand calming techniques to make their environment pleasant & comfortable.

Many of my neighbors, family, and friends who I have pet sit for have said nothing but good things on the way I strictly listen to all the needs of each pet. I am happy helping whatever type of pet as I am a big animal lover at heart! I have a puppy, chickens, cats, and an older dog I care for everyday. I feed them walk them play with them, I even cook for them. They are my babies and I always make sure they have the best care by being their full animal self. I have an acre, fenced backyard with tons of toys for dogs to play with. I always keep extra food just incase they need it! Always good to be prepared

“Danika checked on my cat for 7 days while I was on vacation. She communicated well and sent pictures and videos that put my mind at ease. My cat was relaxed and happy when we returned like we never left. I would have Danika watch my cat again in the future.”

About: I have taken care of animals for the last 12 years. I've done drop ins, overnights, and day sitting. I love meeting new furry friends.

Not to mention all the Pets they could ask for! I also have a new tag along! My baby girl is 8 months old and will tag along with me with walks and visits(if allowed). We love to go for walks and get out into nature, so your pup will have tons of fun with us. I live on a 13 acre lot so there's lots of room for your fuzzy friends to play. Metzler Park and Campground is about a 5 minute drive away. I am currently a stay at home mom with a toddler. I have all the time to hang out with your pup! We will give unconditional attention and love to any animal that comes into our home. Since it is summer I would love to take your pup on a walk near the few parks we have in the area or let them roam my 13 acre lot with supervision.

“Rebecca responded quickly to all of our questions and was patient. We had never put our dog Izzie in a kennel before. The photos of their facilities gave a good sense of what the dogs were provided with inside and outside, and photos of Izzie Rebecca sent to us on the days Rebecca was caring for Izzie were fun and reassuring. Lastly, their roaming farm animals were a delight. We will kennel our dog with Rebecca whenever we are in this part of the Columbia Gorge.”

“Mackenzie is the best! My pup has an absolute blast every time he goes there. He knows the route to her house now and gets so excited when he realizes that we're heading to her house! He's always so happy and so tired by the end of the day. There's no denying that he has an amazing time there.”

Since I’m home most of the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and caring for senior dogs.

“Amazing couple, beautiful spacious home. They did great with my puppy who was dealing with a lot of separation anxiety. I felt comfortable and relaxed knowing she was getting lots of attention from Julie and Barry. Can't wait for her to get more socialized with Julie and Barry!”

“Sage loves it here and they even brought his favorite thing in the whole wide world today, the hose!!! 😂 apparently he had the bestest time. Sage always comes home as if he just went to the groomer and I can never tell that he probably played in the water and dirt all day! They truly are the best and always so kind and flexible. Sage is my one and only baby, so it goes a long way for me to say that I trust them completely with him 💙💚”

“Charlene has been hands-down, the BEST dog sitter we’ve ever had. The amount of love, care, fun, and exercise she gave our dog, Ginkgo, was truly exceptional. I’m someone who loves pictures and updates, and Charlene provided beautiful pictures and updates without prompting during Ginkgo’s 4 day stay. He got to go on runs, long hikes, and even got a pup cup with her daughter. He came home each day absolutely exhausted, which was amazing for my husband after working long days. We are so grateful we found Charlene!”

About: I have grown up with pets and even found my first job working at an animal boarding house. You could say I learned to become a professional dog walker at a young age. I have two high anxiety dogs and have been working on their social skills and coping methods to help their anxiety. I work full-time from home but take frequent breaks to let the dogs go out and play and take multiple walks a day to give them exercise. Weekends are mostly free to cuddle and to play with the fur babies. When house sitting or boarding pets I stay close so they be taken care of as needed. I keep my own pets on a schedule feeding, potty breaks and play with puzzles to earn treats. I will follow clients care guidelines to maintain consistency and keep them comfortable while their owners are gone.
“Tracy and her family took great care of my big guy! Plenty of attention and play time in the backyard, and good communication throughout. No reservations about having her watch him again.”

About: Among my friends, I am well known for my love for pets - as well as for volunteering for animal-care organizations. I’ve been caring for pets for years - both professionally and for friends and fellow travelers. I’ve completed numerous house and pet sits through another website (with all 5-star reviews) and have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, and fish. I fostered for a German Shepherd rescue in the past (GSRNC). Now, I do dog sitting occasionally for these dogs. I am able to handle 80+lbs dogs, dog reactivity, etc. I’m also comfortable with administering medications, working with separation anxiety, and caring for both seniors and puppies. I adore all kind of pets since I was a child, and cannot have one due to a lot of travelling and moving around. So very much excited about this opportunity to interact with someone furry! I am currently in between the jobs and since I have a lot of free time now - my schedule is pretty flexible. I also travel a lot these days but always happy to provide the service when I am in the area! I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Safety and comfort are my top priorities—both for your pets and your space.

I keep my cats indoors, give fresh water every day in their cat fountain. I feed every morning and every night on a consistent schedule, a mix of kibble and wet food.
About: I am passionate about providing compassionate, high quality care for every animal I meet. Whether a pet is in my care or simply nearby, I naturally pay attention to their body language, personality, and individual needs. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet, and I have a habit of spoiling them with plenty of love, attention, and positive experiences. Along with exceptional care, I offer reliability and trust. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone who will treat them like family, and that’s exactly what I strive to do. Spending time with animals is both calming and fulfilling for me, whether we’re relaxing at home, going for walks, playing, or exploring new places together. I have fostered multiple animals, helping with socialization, basic training, and building confidence through patience and positive reinforcement. I also have professional experience as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior or special needs pets, monitoring for health concerns, and handling other tasks such as diaper changes or post operative care. My goal is simple: to provide your pets with a safe, enriching, and loving experience while giving you complete peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and earn your trust by providing the kind of care they deserve. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile!

I live on a farm that is fully fenced around the entire property, there is an option to have your pet(s) meet some other pets on the property and play during the day, but I also am fully prepped for keeping the dogs separate from each other for any reason if needed. When staying at your home I am respectful of privacy and rules. I will NEVER have anyone other than myself inside your home or on the property, and I will clean up after myself as well as have the home clean when you get back. I do allow dogs on furniture at my home but will not allow it if needed.

About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).

I have been animal sitting on and off for 20 years and have worked as a Vet Tech for over 10 years. I would love to watch your dogs, cats, horses or any animals you may have! Please message me on Rover for any sitting questions. I prefer coming to your house 2 times a day to watch your pets and I would like to set up a meet and greet prior to pet-sitting. Thank you! I am available to go to your house to take care of your pets mornings and evenings. Some weekends. I can do overnight stays if my two dogs are welcomed and get along with your pets. I will feed, water them twice a day. I can let them out to play if suitable or play with them. I can also take pets on leashes walks.
About: Hi, I’m Kaitlynn – your pet’s new best friend! I’ve grown up with animals and currently care for two of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs extra playtime, a shy rescue that needs patience, or a senior pet with special care needs — I meet them where they’re at, with love and consistency. I just moved to Oregon from Nevada and am currently settling in and building a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time and availability to focus on pet care. I’m not tied to a full-time job right now, so your pets will get lots of attention, walks, cuddles, and updates throughout the day. Whether you need someone reliable for daily drop-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here and fully present for your pets. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone — and I don’t take that lightly. Your pets — and your home — treated with care and respect. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I understand I’m being trusted with something deeply personal. I approach every visit with respect, cleanliness, and attention to detail. I follow your instructions closely, keep doors locked, double-check gates, and make sure your pets stick to their routine so they feel safe and secure.

About: Had dogs my whole life. Mines a coward and we'd need to check that he gets along with yours first, he'll get bullied if I'm not careful, the poor thing I stay home all day and spend as much of my time as possible outside. Your dog may come back muddy though, the messier you get the more fun you had and all! I am home all day with eyes/ears on the pets nearly constantly. I also spend so much time in environments that encourage explorative play and will keep most dogs too busy to get bored and act out in the first place. If a pet did act out, there's more than enough space in my place to separate animals and allow them to decompress. If at your place, mine is kennel trained for the same idea.
About: I have taken care of animals for the last 12 years. I've done drop ins, overnights, and day sitting. I love meeting new furry friends. I have a lot of experience taking in sickly animals and finding homes for them. When your animals are in my care they will get love, affection, and top notch sitting! Not to mention all the Pets they could ask for! I also have a new tag along! My baby girl is 8 months old and will tag along with me with walks and visits(if allowed). We love to go for walks and get out into nature, so your pup will have tons of fun with us. I live on a 13 acre lot so there's lots of room for your fuzzy friends to play. Metzler Park and Campground is about a 5 minute drive away. I am currently a stay at home mom with a toddler. I have all the time to hang out with your pup! We will give unconditional attention and love to any animal that comes into our home. Since it is summer I would love to take your pup on a walk near the few parks we have in the area or let them roam my 13 acre lot with supervision. Being so close to Mt.hood national forest, Metzler Park and Campground and other trails you can trust that your pups going to get the exercise they love.
