“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.”
“Always wonderful with my shy baby and my reactive baby. My dogs are always happy and relaxed when I pick them up, honestly I think they would stay with Julie forever if they could! I’ve been going to her for a year and still go to her despite moving up to the Portland area!”
“My dog had so much fun with Shelby. He has a lot of energy and she managed to tire him out every day. She communicated well and sent lots of great pictures. We got delayed on our way back and she held on to him for longer than planned. I will definitely book with her in the future when I have the need.”
“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”
“Madison took great care of Zeus and sent us fun photo updates frequently. She was very accommodating, communicative and flexible and we look forward to having her watch Zeus again during our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“I’m so glad we found Maddy! She assured me that my precious old gal was fully integrated into their family throughout the stay. I very much look forward to using Maddy again.”
“We have a rescue dog who is nervous in new situations but Dee Dee was wonderful with her. She gave her a great atmosphere to feel calm and welcome, and then plenty of pets when our pup was ready. Dee Dee was communicative, cheerful, and sent us lots of photos, which we loved. We are definitely going to reach out to Dee Dee the next time we go out of town. She’s so delightful!”
“Joseph was great with our pups. He helped us out last minute when we were in a mind and was very responsive. The pups had so much fun running around and making friends! We would love to have him watch them again!”
“Chandra was great with our pup, Ivy! We had a last-minute change in our original booking and she was very accommodating. We got lovely updates and would definitely book with Chandra in future!”
“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!!!”
“Our pups did well with Claire on their first stay! Claire was very communicative and sent photos too. She was very patient and understanding of letting our girls adjust to a new environment. Claire is very knowledgeable and gave us a few helpful recommendations as well.”
“Miriam has watched Chowder for over a year now and she has been amazing! Chowder and her have connected so well and it’s clear that he is completely comfortable and happy around her. She is very attentive and sensitive to his needs. Very happy to continue working with her 😊”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
About: I’ve always loved animals, often more than people if I’m honest haha. I will love your babies like they are my own! Crate trained or not crate trained are welcome. They won’t be spending much time, if any, in it unless that’s part of the requested care. I lost both my rescues, the most recent almost 2 years ago. It’s an indescribable loss. My heart isn’t ready to own another animal yet, but I truly have so much love to give them. I’m the type that let my dogs on any and all furniture, celebrated birthdays, and went on special trips and outings I know they would love! I’ve always owned animals, specifically dogs, my entire life. I believe they are the purest form of love. I’ve watched animals for friends and family, but my senior dog made it difficult towards the end of his life to have any other animals around. I live in a private community with 2 grassy dog parks inside it. While I have your baby, please feel free to connect anytime you want an update or reassurance that they are safe and sound! I work at a spa part time, and also from home. I have plenty of walk and spoil time! I’m not away at work longer than 5 hours at a time a few days a week. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I want them, and you, to feel safe and relaxed 😌 I’m a sucker for animals. I’m sure your pet will figure that out in the first 5 minutes haha. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
About: I worked at a pet boarding facility for a 7 years before I moved. I am a fast learner and choose to have the pet accept me before moving on to anything else. I shadowed groomers and vets to be sure the road I was taking would assure me happiness with animals and still plenty of time with my own animals. Working with the boarding facility I learned pets are different without there parents and can act differently around them so learning their likes and dislikes personally is a must for me. I want to make sure Pets and Parents are happy with me as help. I want both parties to feel safe, happy, and well rested when staying with me. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule. I would be able to come for an early morning and evening walk or adventure if needed. I have two dogs that are high energy. We often go to parks, take long walks, or swimming during hot days. I do have a kennel and a large vehicle for transport.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, cleaning, medication routines, and lots of cuddles. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and want every animal in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their person is away. 🐾💕 I’m completely free and flexible until September 23rd! Once classes begin, I’ll still have plenty of availability for pet care, walks, and drop-in visits. My class schedule is pretty spread out, so I’m able to work around your pet’s needs and can often provide care before or after class. 🐾💕 Monday: Classes 1:00–2:50 PM Tuesday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Wednesday: Classes 2:00–2:50 PM & 5:00–7:50 PM for midterms (will let you know well in advance) Thursday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Friday: Class 2:00–2:50 PM Outside of these class times, I’m generally available and happy to work with your schedule! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I keep a close eye on pets during care, make sure doors and gates stay secure, and keep potentially harmful items out of reach. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and safe while you’re away! 🐾💕

“Vanessa was patient and understanding with my skittish kitties, giving them a chance to get to know her. Everything was taken care of as asked, and she was wonderful to interact with!”
“How great to have found Emily to care for our pet. She was professional, considerate and patient - very understanding of nervous pet-parents leaving the pet for the first time overnight.”
“Emily was awesome! I was super nervous because I had never had someone watch my dog before but she took great care of my high energy dog while I was gone. Will definitely schedule again sometime!”
“Very highly recommend! She is amazing! Played with our two cats. Kept litter box clean. Was very attentive to their needs. She was nice enough to get our mail too! Provided awesome pictures on visits and contacted us for one minor issue with the cat's water. Some reason a screw decided to get extremely rusty. It turned the water a very strange color and she noticed the cats didn'twant to have anything to do with it. Don'tpanic people, we have lots of other water bowls in another area of the house. They definitely were okay with water. This was their favorite pet water fountain to drink from. She immediately contacted us and helped get things set with extra water for the cats again. Cats made additional mess getting in top of the fridge and knocking over the oatmeal container and she tended to it too!”
“Thank you, thank you! Because of you I was able to go out of town for a much needed day trip to visit my daughters and an aunt without the worry of having to rush home to take care of Zeus. It’s been a very stressful few weeks. You’ve been great to work with and hope to call on you again.”
“This was our first vacation with Rachel as our kitty wrangler. Took her just one visit before our shyest kitty realized she was a friend 😊 We will definitely rebook with Rachel.”
“Angel is absolute best. My cat loves her and she even found a new toy he likes despite not being the playful type. He’s a big cat and she did great job keeping cat boxes clean. No smell at all once we got home. Terrific, dependable and professional care can’t be beat.”
“Angela was an amazing cat sitter! She took excellent care of all our cats and made sure every one of their needs was met. She truly went above and beyond, doing thoughtful extra things without even being asked. She even watered our fuchsia, which was so sweet. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everything at home was so well cared for. I highly recommend Angela’s cat-sitting services and would gladly hire her again!”
“Imani was incredibly attentive and so patient with our kitty while we were gone for 2 1/2 weeks! She sent so many photos and gave us little updates every day (twice a day!). I highly recommend Imani, she is a wonderful kitty sitter!”
“Whitney stopped by and provided check in visits as we had arranged. She was able to give the snacks my kitty enjoys and build rapport. Sent pictures to reassure me that my kitty was not stressed. Appreciated knowing someone dependable was checking on my little family member!”
“This was our first time having Alyssa as our house sitter and it was for quite a long stay. I’ve had some challenging experiences in the past, but Alyssa made me feel very secure in her ability to take care of all the animals. She was communicative, reliable and overall just had great energy about her. We feel really fortunate to have found her and we hope to use her in the future! Thank again Alyssa, we really appreciate you!”
“Tori was caring and good to my dogs while I was across the country. She would send cute photos of my fur babies having fun. I am already booking her again for my August 2nd travels!”
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!
“Nicole has been such an amazing sitter we went to seven feathers for my grandma’s birthday and she just amazes me she is just the best person to have at ur house watch your animals I would recommend her to anybody!! I’m so happy I never had to get a pet sitter but we were just blown away with her and her service the way she just handled everything was amazing! 100/100 couldn’t be happier with her service!! 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ she’s just so uplifting and has such great energy thank you Nicole for everything”
“The attention Thor gave to our cat was great, and the frequent photo updates allowed us to know Mr.Picklesworth was in good hands while we were away. Also, the frequent communication Thoe provided us through the Rover app was greatly appreciated. We look forward to having Thor watch Mr. Picklesworth on next adventure! Thank you for the great service Thor!😃”
About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs since I was in middle school, currently have my own 8 year old pitty girl and we have 2 other doggy roommates. I have experience with cats as well as I have many friends with cat that I’ve cared for :) I hope to provide comfort and care to your furry pal(s) ❤️ I work as a bartender in Philomath and Corvallis but pretty active and willing to drive around as I have friends and family from Eugene to Portland to the coast! Weekends are pretty open for me as well for checking in on your pet or walking them! I love to create a relationship with new furry friends that will allow them to gauge how they feel about me and hopefully I can earn their trust. I will ensure not to force them to do anything they don’t want and provide them with love and care as I would my own pets ❤️

“Shelby is great! Loki enjoyed spending time with her and her sweet furbaby Winston. Shelby's an excellent communicator and matched Loki's energy level perfectly. She sent him home with a little note and goody bag, which was just so thoughtful! We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you so much, Shelby!”
“Tracy took great care of my 3.5m old German shepherd puppy. She loves dogs and dogs love her. She has a LOT of experience reading dogs body language and understanding dogs. My pup will be very happy to go back to stay with her again.”
“Im very thankful I found Joe, he has the PERFECT location with a fenced yard for lots of playtime. My Duke was cared for and made new friends to play with. Thank you Joe, and thank you Rover.”
“We brought our dog to Whitney’s house for three days while we were in the area for work and she took great care of him! She was super flexible since we needed to pick him up at different times each day. And our dog was happy and well exercised when we got him in the evening. If we are ever back in the area again and need babysitting we will definitely bring our puppy back. Thanks Whitney!”
About: I am an animal lover, I only have 2 pets in my home right now, but I would have a cat rescue if I was able. Experience with all ages of pets. My schedule is flexible as I work from home. I prefer to walk in the morning or evening, to avoid heat stress, but I am able to work around your schedule I have an 8yr old St. Benard who is a gental giant and a 8ish year old cat that's my baby. A fenced large yard.
About: I have been around dogs and cats since before I could walk! I started pet sitting for my neighbors when I was a kid and have spent most of my life helping out my friends and family with their pets. I am a huge animal lover and also very active! I often pet sit for my friends and love to take their dogs on walks and runs. I live in Albany with my cat, Bill, and work from home a lot so I have lots of availability and would love some more dog time in my life! I work from home four days a week (wednesday’s i am in office) so i have a lot of availability to spend time with your dog! I am also an active runner and walker, so I can get your pup outside and get out energy if that’s what they need, or we can cuddle up inside and play or hang out :) I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment with lots of grassy areas and walking paths around. I do have a cat, he gets along well with dogs, but your pup would need to be okay with cats! I have a very gentle approach to dogs and respecting their boundaries is so important to me. Depending on what you prefer for your dog, they are free to roam my apartment and be on furniture, unless you prefer them not to be! I have some experience training so if you’re in the middle of building habits, i will adhere to those practices :)
“Plain and simple, Madison was nothing less than a pure blessing caring for my puppy Sailor. She didn’t simply care for her, she made her part of her family. Finding Madison (Maddy) to care for my pup was an answered prayer. I cannot sing her praise enough! 5++++++++ stars!!”
“Chelsea was great with my dog, she was very responsive and you can tell how much she loves dogs! My pup came home very tired and happy from running around with her boys all day. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been in love with cats & dogs for as long as I can remember. In my home we always had 2 dogs and 2 cats. I cared for four family friends’ dogs in California the last couple of years. I love taking dogs on walks, and play time and cuddles with cats too. I have a mini poodle and a cat at the moment, they are best friends :) I am an RN but I am not working at the moment, so I spend a lot of time at home, so message me and we can see if what you need works out❤️ I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your dog. I am also happy to play with them using their favorite toys! I am a nurse and I live with my husband who is a doctor (he also adores dogs). I am readily available to provide walks and companionship to your beloved pet on my days off. I would only dog sit your dog if I was not going to work, since when I do work in the hospital I’m gone all day and would not want to leave them for that long. So, on my days off and I dog sit and give them all the attention! I live in a 800 sq ft apartment overlooking a large park which offers an ideal space for playtime. I also live near a beautiful pond great for walking and exploring. I prefer dogs that will not sleep on my bed, but I’m ok with them going on the sofa.
“Arielle is really friendly and understood our dog’s demeanor. Our dog quickly took to her. As well, Arielle was very response through text and a life saver for the last day of our Sequoia trip. She is located just outside the entrance to Sequoia National Park… so very convenient!”

I will definitely have Isa watch him again when needed, she is a very trustworthy and wonderful sitter.”
About: I've been around dogs intermittently, ranging from small to large, lazy to active, and administered medicine to elderly dogs as well. I understand that every dog is different and will do my very best to accommodate to each and every dog I take care of. I have a very open availability, I'm only away for ~10hrs spread out between two days during the weekdays. I can pop for however long or stay for a couple of hours! Whatever the pet needs I can provide. I keep a watchful, attentive eye on the pets I care for. I give them my full attention when playing with them, and whenever they ask for attention. I treat all animals with respect and play with them in a style suited for each individual personality.
About: I have had dogs in my family since I can remember, including a husky, shiba inus, a rescued staffordshire terrier, red labrador, and an icelandic sheepdog. I have experience training them as puppies, including walking, tricks, and obedience. I have experience walking 2-3 dogs at once, as well as experience with elderly dogs and health issues, including a seizure disorder and asthmatic symptoms. I am currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule, and am able to prioritize your pet! I am available for walking and house-sitting or check-ins any time at the moment. Feel free to reach out and I’ll do what I can for you. At home, I prioritize my animal’s freedom and playtime as they are very energetic. While I do not board animals, I am happy to work around your schedule to make sure yours are taken care of. I can crate them, spend time outside, teach small obedience lessons or tricks to keep them busy, or provide other activities they already know in your home.
About: Growing up, my family fostered more than 10 dogs, giving me experience with dogs of many breeds, personalities, and care needs. Combined with over 10 years of caring for animals, this taught me the patience, consistency, and attention every pet deserves. Hi! I'm Jaedyn, and animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered more than 10 dogs, and I loved helping care for them. Being around so many different breeds, personalities, and energy levels taught me that every pet is unique and deserves patience, consistency, and individualized care. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have years of experience caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, frogs, and other small animals. I raised, bred, and showed rabbits through 4-H, where I learned the importance of recognizing health concerns, maintaining consistent routines, and building trust with animals through calm, attentive care. I'm especially comfortable with shy or nervous pets and enjoy taking the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your pet is energetic and loves adventure or prefers quiet companionship, I'll meet them where they're most comfortable. With my flexible schedule, I'm able to give pets plenty of attention while you're away. I'll treat your pet like they're my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and do my best to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. Because I volunteer part-time, I'm able to adjust my schedule around your pet's routine whenever possible. Whether that means multiple potty breaks, long walks, playtime, medication, or overnight house sitting, my goal is to keep their day as normal as possible while you're away. For house sitting, I can often spend the majority of the day with your pet if that's something they'd benefit from. If I'll need to step away, I'll always communicate that with you beforehand so there are no surprises. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Before every booking, I take time to learn their normal schedule, favorite activities, medications, feeding routine, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable while you're away. I'm especially patient with shy or nervous pets and understand that some animals need a little extra time to warm up to someone new. I never rush interactions and always let pets build trust at their own pace. During walks and visits, I'm careful about securely attaching leashes before opening doors, checking gates, and paying close attention to my surroundings. In your home, I'll treat your space with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine, following your instructions carefully and making sure everything is secure before I leave. You'll also receive regular updates and plenty of photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have raised three pets of my own, one dog and two cats as well as being raised with family pets. I have plenty of experience taking care of my family and friend’s pets. I am comfortable with cats, dogs, or really any animal. I can meet your pet where they’re at with energy levels, personalities and their quirks. I am able to administer medication if needed. I am in school and work part time but I am free to check-in or walk your pet around those obligations. I have availability almost every afternoon/evening and can do earlier in the morning depending on the day. I can check in on your pet as much as they need, make sure they are fed and watered. If you have cats I can clean litter boxes for them. If you have dogs I can take them out for potty breaks and walks.
About: All my life I’ve been obsessed with dogs 🐶 When I was finishing up nursing school, I needed to find some part time work to help make ends meet. I found a job as a kennel technician at a commercial dog boarding facility - where I mostly cleaned up to 36 dogs daily messes and gave them social enrichment. I quickly jumped up the short ladder of management and took over as CEO right around my first year mark of employment. I have cared for hundreds, possibly a thousand plus dogs in the last half of my entire lifetime. I’ve worked hard to help dogs and owners alike understand eachother better - communication often needs no words. I specialize in “project pups”, socialization and reactivity. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies to teenage obedience school dropouts - through the medically fragile & elderly pooches on palliative care & absolutely everything in between. I’ve worked in a rescue as an adoption coordinator and had the extreme pleasure of helping people and pooches find their forever spaces together. Along with rescuing over a dozen dogs of my own over the years & nursing several back to health from horrific conditions. Dogs are my passion - simple as that. Nothing makes me happier than helping a dog & owner relationship thrive. I am a stay at home mom, my boys are 2 & 3 years old. They’ve been raised around dogs & already have learned a healthy respect for their space. I am hyper vigilant & always err on the extreme side of caution for everyone’s safety - especially when it comes to those tricky resources. Other than weekly appointments on Mondays - we have a very flexible and open schedule. Our yard is fully fenced with 6 foot - reinforced wood fencing. Gates are double locked to keep toddlers from opening them - dogs too. I have a 10 year old spayed female border collie that I picked from her litter at 3 weeks old. She’s my right hand gal and socially bulletproof when it comes to hanging out with her furry friends. I often used her as the “Ice Breaker” dog when I ran the boarding facility - meaning she did all the temperament testing for any newly boarded dogs we were socially unsure about. We have multiple baby gates, and crate option for separation of space. A dog door built into our back door leading into our fully fenced, toddlerized but maintained, grassy residential yard on a quarter acre. We live in a very quiet tiny town on an even quieter little street, perfect for safely regulated walks and training opportunities.
About: I have taken care of family/friends dogs since I was little, I have also taken care of my own since I was a teenager. I have two puppy's one who is 3 years old who is my best friend, I also have an 1 and a half year old who is also my best friend. I love all animals. I can help train a bit with basics if need be, am very patient and caring. I am able to take on walks, to the park or just hang out if needed. I can also give baths if they need one. I understand all dogs are unique and have different needs and am willing to help. I currently work part time, Monday through Thursday. So I will have plenty of time to check in on, take on walks/ to parks and just play with your animals. I can also bring my dogs along for other dogs if you would like so they have someone to play with or just learn to be around other dogs! I can either take care of your pet in your home or in mine if needed. I do have a fenced yard and 2 dogs of my own. Who are friendly with other dogs and can play/ keep your dog company if you would like. I know how crates work and am willing to learn the routine you have for your animal. (Food/crate/sleeping habits).
About: I bond easily with cats and dogs. I am gentle, patient and give 100% to all the fur babies in my care. I enjoy entertaining and caring for these special critters. While with me, I am observant and provide the kind of interaction the pet wants. This could be anything from a massage to hiking and play at a beach with a variety of toys. I always want your pet to feel warm and welcome. I believe walking is the best medicine, so I’m game to go out no matter the weather. I don’t feed people food to them but am happy to give appropriate treats and lots of praise. I have been taking care dogs for 15 years. Dogs are considered my family bond
About: I’ve taken care of all different types of dogs, to my personal golden doodle to my aunties Great Dane. I also have 3 cats and and have had them from kittens to adults same for my dog, as I got when he was a puppy. I love to take my dog on walks and understand the importance of keeping your animals healthy with activity and attention! I pet sit for family and friends on occasions well as house sit. I also am a babysitter and the family’s have dogs that need to be taken care of while I’m gone as well! I am currently a first year student at Oregon State and looking for a way to make some extra money! That being said did rover over the summer and decided to continue it into Corvallis! I am currently taking a break from housesitting as I’m trying to get used to the dorm life but I am free to come feed/take care of your pets during the morning daytime and evenings!! I also love dog walking and it will be nice to hang out with some dogs/cats as I will miss my own as I’m away from home. I would be open to hours of your liking and week days and weekends since my class schedule pretty calm. How a typically care day will look would be up to my client/you. I will just follow your likings of what you want your pet care to look like. Stopping in will be me coming over at certain times to play with your dog/cat let them go potty, feed them and any other special request.
About: I've been around pets my whole life and love animals and I am quite good with them. I've pet sit and walked many times before. I am extremely responsible and currently work another job. I've taken care of farm animals and domesticated and enjoy helping others. I do have a part time job I can work anytime past 230 on weekdays and full time starting as early as ever on weekends. In my home I am in charge of feeding and cleaning after all my pets and making sure they are getting played with enough. I am a gentle person and make sure the pets I'm looking after feel as safe and comfortable as possible with a new person in the house.
About: I've taken care of pets basically my whole life, especially cats, and I've also had a dog for a couple years. I'm always the first person my friends and family call when they need help with their pets. I stay well read on what's good for animals, from training to helping with anxiety, and I'm always willing to go the extra mile to make sure a pet is happy. They're living creatures who deserve just as much happiness as we do. In terms of training, I've helped a cat retrain to use the litter box after it regressed due to anxiety, working through the root cause rather than just the behavior itself. I've also reduced aggression in animals through consistent training. I'm willing to stick with things for a long time and stay consistent, especially when it's for the betterment of the animal. My life is quite flexible, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I prefer jobs where I'm able to stay in charge of how the work gets done, since that's when I feel like I can give my best contribution. That flexibility means I can adjust to a pet's needs rather than squeezing them into a rigid schedule. When I'm caring for a pet in their own environment, I make sure to respect their space and routine completely, from where they're allowed to go to how they're used to being handled. I pay close attention to safety details like doors, gates, and anything that could be harmful to them, and I adapt to whatever setup the home already has in place.
About: I've lived with my dog, Avery, for about 10 years back home, have cared for family friends' dogs when needed, have participated in fetch-a-friend multiple times with Heartland Humane Shelter, and I am very comfortable around cats as well. I can provide a very active few days running or walking for your pets, or I can keep them homely company while you are away. Since I have a car, if desired, I can take your pets to the park or just on short car rides. If your pets have any medications required, or specific eating/dosage times, I will make sure to set alarms to stay on time and dependable. My main job right now is DoorDash, so any time you need me to be available is free. My schedule can allow for week-long petcare, if needed, or just a short walk :3 I try my best to be friendly, understanding, and patient with any pets I interact with; if a pet is trying to tell me something, I will pay my best attention! Additionally, if a pet needs some space while adjusting to me or the lack of usual people around, I can provide that space while still keeping an eye on them.
About: I have taken care of dogs of various sizes and breads since I was five years old. My neighbors and friends trust me to take impeccable care for their pets. I am currently in college and I work part-time three days a week. Although, I have quite a bit of free time and in that time I usually like to workout or try new things. Occasionally my family and I go to bend on the weekends. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a property that Is not heavily populated by cars on the road. I also have three varying sized crates as well as two dogs. My dogs are let out every 1-2 hours. One of my dogs is crated when I am not home and my other dog does not have to be crated. In my clients home, I will care for their pets like my client would normally and I will ensure that their home is left clean.

“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.”
“My dog had so much fun with Shelby. He has a lot of energy and she managed to tire him out every day. She communicated well and sent lots of great pictures. We got delayed on our way back and she held on to him for longer than planned. I will definitely book with her in the future when I have the need.”
“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, often more than people if I’m honest haha. I will love your babies like they are my own! Crate trained or not crate trained are welcome. They won’t be spending much time, if any, in it unless that’s part of the requested care. I lost both my rescues, the most recent almost 2 years ago. It’s an indescribable loss. My heart isn’t ready to own another animal yet, but I truly have so much love to give them. I’m the type that let my dogs on any and all furniture, celebrated birthdays, and went on special trips and outings I know they would love! I’ve always owned animals, specifically dogs, my entire life. I believe they are the purest form of love. I’ve watched animals for friends and family, but my senior dog made it difficult towards the end of his life to have any other animals around. I live in a private community with 2 grassy dog parks inside it. While I have your baby, please feel free to connect anytime you want an update or reassurance that they are safe and sound! I work at a spa part time, and also from home. I have plenty of walk and spoil time! I’m not away at work longer than 5 hours at a time a few days a week. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I want them, and you, to feel safe and relaxed 😌 I’m a sucker for animals. I’m sure your pet will figure that out in the first 5 minutes haha. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
About: I worked at a pet boarding facility for a 7 years before I moved. I am a fast learner and choose to have the pet accept me before moving on to anything else. I shadowed groomers and vets to be sure the road I was taking would assure me happiness with animals and still plenty of time with my own animals. Working with the boarding facility I learned pets are different without there parents and can act differently around them so learning their likes and dislikes personally is a must for me. I want to make sure Pets and Parents are happy with me as help. I want both parties to feel safe, happy, and well rested when staying with me. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule. I would be able to come for an early morning and evening walk or adventure if needed. I have two dogs that are high energy. We often go to parks, take long walks, or swimming during hot days. I do have a kennel and a large vehicle for transport.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, cleaning, medication routines, and lots of cuddles. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and want every animal in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their person is away. 🐾💕 I’m completely free and flexible until September 23rd! Once classes begin, I’ll still have plenty of availability for pet care, walks, and drop-in visits. My class schedule is pretty spread out, so I’m able to work around your pet’s needs and can often provide care before or after class. 🐾💕 Monday: Classes 1:00–2:50 PM Tuesday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Wednesday: Classes 2:00–2:50 PM & 5:00–7:50 PM for midterms (will let you know well in advance) Thursday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Friday: Class 2:00–2:50 PM Outside of these class times, I’m generally available and happy to work with your schedule! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I keep a close eye on pets during care, make sure doors and gates stay secure, and keep potentially harmful items out of reach. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and safe while you’re away! 🐾💕
About: We are a dog family with a pack of 2. We have worked with local rescues in the past to volunteer our home and time to foster heeler puppies. Our dogs are social and love having friends to play with. Our large fenced yard allows for lots of running, playing or lazy sunbathing. We have experience with young puppies and just went through a season of caring for and saying goodbye to our senior ladies. Our home and hearts are open to making many new doggo best friends. My spouse and I work opposite shifts so we have ability to spend time with the dogs in our home. Our youngest is still training (only 4 months old) so we make sure that the longest the dogs are left alone is 3 hours. We have a fenced yard and 2 Dogs of our own (4 year old Great Pyrenees and 4 month old Kelpie Mix) that love to socialize and make friends. My spouse is at OSU taking classes and preparing to apply to Veterinary school. We have volunteered with a local rescue to foster heeler puppies and have helped 7 puppies find their forever homes. We love giving dogs the opportunity to live their best lives possible.
