“Rowan really enjoys spending time with Jennifer and her family. Jennifer is great to work with. She communicates well and often and always sends photos/videos. I am always comfortable when I know Rowan is safe and happy with Jennifer. You know your dog is happy to be there when they are excited to be there again...that's how Rowan is when spending time with Jennifer and her family.”
“Shelby went above and beyond caring for Shadow 🫶 Daily walks, lots of photo updates, and even a thoughtful card and treat at pickup - it meant so much! I could tell he was happy and well cared for the entire time, and will absolutely be booking her again in the future 😊”
“Julie took wonderful care of our precious Penny sending lots of daily pictures and updates ! Penny became a part of her family for twelve days. We will definitely use her again and Highly Recommend her services to everyone !”
“Connie took lots of pictures and was careful to follow all of my instructions. She took the time to meet our dog ahead of hosting him and was very easy to work with. Very responsive.”
“Dave and Daniel provide a clean, comfortable and relaxed setting, with a shaded patio and pretty backyard. My guys, Buddy and Micky, looked relaxed and content in the picture and video D & D sent to me, and when I picked them up, it seemed like Buddy wanted to stay longer! I am confident that my guys are being provided excellent care and have already booked another stay. It's so nice to know they are safe, happy and well-tended! Thank you D & D!”
“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.”
“Jade is the BEST. Our pug Ayla had a blast hanging out with her. She is very good at communicating and providing updates while we were away. We plan to rebook with her whenever we are going out of town.”
“Tracy is a great pet lover! She puts all the animal needs first. She house/dog/cat sat for me, gave me updates, and thoroughly enjoyed my very active menagerie. She also hosted my dogs at her home for 3 days, and my dogs had a blast playing with her dogs in her big yard.”
“Our experience with Zuri was wonderful from start to finish. She was able to take our two dogs on short notice for a few days. She was incredibly accommodating to the needs and energy levels of our 8 year old malipoo and 1 year old boston terrier. She was able to provide medication for our maltipoo. Zuri was very flexible with pick up and drop off times which made leaving and returning from our trip a breeze. She kept us up to date with adorable pictures and videos of our dogs enjoying extra love, cuddles, and play time. Both dogs felt right at home cuddled up on the couch. Our boston terrier especially loved her dog Bonnie and her daughter. She and her daughter provided a safe and loving home for our babies while we were away! I would highly recommend Zuri if you ever need a dog sitter during the day or overnight”
“Diana cared for our 16 yr dog for a week. She is an excellent communicator and professional. Her home has plenty of outdoor space for him to roam free. She sent regular updates and pictures. She also is a groomer. Our pup is afraid of anyone who tries to groom him and hates water. Despite these obstacles she managed to give him a nice trim. I highly recommend Diana and will certainly hire her again!”
“We threw a small superbowl party at our home. Floki does not do well with guests stopping by, so we searched for near by dog sitter to watch him for the evening. We met with Jordan a couple weeks prior to dropping Floki off. He did well with him and his son. Jordan sent pictures throughout his, putting our mind to ease! The picture of our dog with his head on his son's lap was PERFECT! Like I said, he doesn't do well with strangers stopping by so this made both of us very happy receiving this photo! Floki is a very energetic dog and he was tired when he came home. Jordan took Floki for 2 long walks which was not expected but appreciated! He went above and beyond previous sitters!!! So grateful to have found him! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Oh and another thing that we must mention, he got along with the other dogs he cared for; out of the norm for Floki! We're definitely going to use him for future events.”
“Hailey and her family were absolutely incredible! She provided daily updates and pictures which greatly eased my mind. She went above and beyond to provide sensitive care to my aging dog. I would highly recommend Hailey!”
“I can’t say enough kind words about Gayle and her housemate Seth! They welcomed my boys into their home on very short notice for an overnight stay and fun day of play with their sweet pup Sitka. Sitka was a peach and shared all her toys with my boys. They were like 3 peas in a pod! Gayles home is the ultimate pup set up! Very clean and organized, lots of room inside and out for everyone to run and play freely. She provided me with frequent updates and pics of the boys enjoying themselves and OH! The way they bonded with her housemate! They were so comfortable and enjoyed all the cuddle time he gave them! I was in town for work, but will be making it a point to ask gayle for watching them on future work trips. Thanks so much again!”
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.
“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.”
“Michael was great! He was very kind, and gave me status updates. He treated my dog like part of the family. I would recommend him to everyone and will be using his services in the future whenever he is available.”
“Thanks Chelsea and family! Mia loved it at your house. I appreciated your extra effort to understand my dog and her unique needs. You went out of your way to make sure she was comfortable and had fun at your house. See you again soon!!”

“Elizabeth was very responsive and flexible and helped us in a pinch with a very last minute drop-in request. We are so grateful for her. She did everything we asked and even helped us out by bringing a package inside. We feel lucky to have found her and plan to request her for all of our future drop-in or house-sitting needs!”
“McKenna was great to work with. We had a meet and greet and it went great. Our cats walked up to her and were very comfortable. One of our cats, Sonya, is very shy and with a couple of visits McKenna had her doing flips in the air with the feather on a string toy and sitting next to her. In case you are wondering how I know I have a cat cam in the front room. The next time we need a cat setter McKenna will be on the top of our list.”
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!
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Astrid is an absolute dream out there. My cat, Mewbert, is a cranky old lady to visitors :) and Astrid broke through to her and provided all the care Mewbert needed. I highly recommend Astrid and will for sure be booking her again.”
“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!”
“Taylor is kind, considerate and a true animal lover. My shy, somewhat reclusive kitty felt comfortable with Taylor almost immediately. Taylor did an awesome job not only with overall care, but also communicating through notes, photos, and videos. It’s such a relief to know my kitty is in such good hands.”
“My experience with Melody was fantastic she went above and beyond, truly the best pet sitting experience I have had. This was a super last minute booking after my previous sitter cancelled and she responded immediately and was willing to take over and show up instantly. She was super communicative and made me feel very comfortable, even going as far as giving me updates when she was leaving the house for less than 30 minutes. Not only did she send plenty of adorable photos of my cats but she cleaned up as well leaving my house in better shape than I left it. I would recommend Melody in a heartbeat she is the best.”
About: I have owned cats my whole life and I understand what it is like to keep a cat safe and healthy. I currently only have one cat named Dobby but I used to have 4 more. I will care for your cat like my own.
About: I have had pets my whole life, different kinds, and ages! I am willing to help with any medication or any special request nothing is too big or too small for me to help with for your peace of mind!

“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 have years of experience caring for small and medium sized dogs and am the owner of two friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle. Because I focus exclusively on dogs under 40 pounds, I am highly familiar with the unique temperaments and safety needs of small and medium breeds. Working from home full time allows me to provide constant, dedicated supervision throughout the day, easily keeping up with your dog's specific feeding and bathroom schedules while keeping their anxiety low. Your dog will also have access to a fully fenced backyard, offering a completely secure space to get fresh air, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised outdoor playtime with Minion and Gizmo without any risk of escaping. Whether your dog has high energy or is a calm companion who just wants to nap by my desk while I work, I provide a peaceful, attentive environment tailored to making them feel safe and right at home. Since I work from home full time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine. My workday is structured around the dogs, meaning guest pets are never left unattended and receive constant companionship. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to step away from my screen and supervise outdoor playtime in my fully fenced backyard. Your dog will join my own friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, for a consistent schedule of morning feeds, afternoon backyard romps, and plenty of desk side company while I work. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, bathroom, or exercise timelines without any disruption to my work week. Trust and safety are the foundation of how I operate, which is why I provide care exclusively in my own home where I can maintain total oversight. To guarantee a secure environment, I strictly enforce a 40 pound weight limit for all guests. This ensures everyone is evenly matched with my own friendly dogs, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, eliminating the safety risks and anxiety that come with mixing large and small breeds. Because I work from home full time, your dog will never be left unattended and will receive constant supervision. Outdoor time is restricted to a fully fenced backyard where I am always physically present to monitor play and bathroom breaks. I build trust with owners through transparent communication, regular photo updates, and precise adherence to your dog's established feeding and routine instructions, providing a predictable and protective environment where your pet can feel completely safe.
“Bridget had a great time with Novely. Novely was very kind and caring with Bridget. With the photos and video Novely sent I could see that Bridget ran and played in the yard with Novely’s dog and had a fun day.”
About: Hi there and thank you for taking the time to view my profile! If you're looking for a place where your dog will be treated like a member of the family while you're away, you've come to the right spot. Since the day I was born, I have been surrounded by all sorts of breeds (herding, working, hounds, toys, sporting)…you name it. There isn't a breed or size I don't adore. This has taught me that every dog is uniquely special and I truly love them all. After I recently lost my sweet and wonderful 16.5 year old Blue Heeler, Sooky, I have so much love to share and I'd be thrilled to give it to your fur baby! Whether your dog enjoys running around in my fully fenced yard or snuggling up by the fire when it's cold, they'll get cozy and comfortable care while they are with me. I'm experienced with dogs at all life stages, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I can also handle things like giving medication or if you're working on commands/hand signals (I trained Sooky by hand signals only…no words) at home, I am more than happy to keep up that consistency while they're here! As a stay at home mom, I'm usually home all day so I can provide lots of company, attention, and affection! Treats are free with your permission! The only times I have to leave are for quick school runs for my kiddos, who are 3 and 6. My kids have been surrounded by dogs since they were born so they love dogs but they also understand some dogs need space and time to acclimate. With that said, if your pup is coming to visit, I kindly ask that they should be okay with kids and other dogs. Thanks for taking the time to read, please reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur love. I am 100% invested in creating a positive experience for both your pup and you. I look forward to having your pup steal my heart. P.S. Just something deeply personal to me. I take huge pride in my natural connection with dogs, I have heard countless times over the years "they never warm up to people that fast!” so know they will be in a loving environment. P.S.S. Please know I am happy to give you photo/video updates so you have complete peace of mind. As a stay at home mom, I have a lot of flexibility. This means I can really focus on what your dog needs each day and tailor it to them. If you have an energetic pup who needs frequent potty breaks and active fun, I’m here for it! If you have a wise senior who just wants a quiet spot to snooze with periodic belly rubs or back scratches, I’m here for that too. Besides taking my kids to and from school in the morning and afternoon, I'm usually home. This means your dog won't be left alone for long hours. Whether your dog likes morning fun, lazy afternoon naps or a cozy evening wind down, I'll make sure your pup has a wonderful time with me. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities for every guest pup. I want them to have a "home away from home". My home features a fully fenced, secure backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, and play under my constant supervision. Inside, they’re welcome to roam freely, play with toys or snuggle up where they please. To keep the environment safe and happy for all, I will make sure every pup is friendly with children and comfortable playing alongside other dogs. I will be sure to supervise all interactions and treat your dog with the same care I’d give my own. You’ll receive photo/video check-ins during the day so you can see just how safe, happy, and settled your fur baby is!
“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.”
“Zuri is an exceptional sitter, I’m so thankful to found her, she’s always been sweet and kind to reply and take care of my big boy. I’m sure my puppy is always happy to be at her house. She takes some adorable pictures and videos and send it to me. An amazing sitter that I love!!”
“Tess was available with short notice. She was able to wrangle my energetic dogs through their first babysitting experience. They were with her for a couple of hours and were extremely comfortable. Thanks, Tess!”
About: I am a dog lover who was born and raised with dogs. I have raised 2 dogs from pups of my own and cared for my late elderly girl at the end of her life. I have 18 years of experience caring for and training my own dogs as well, caring for family pets, and work experience in a vet clinic. I am a stay at home mom and college student. My schedule is flexible and allows me to be home the majority of the time. I provide respectful and responsible service. I have a secure, dog-friendly home with a large fenced backyard. My lab Potter will love to play and run with your fur baby!
“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!”
“Catrina was great! Our dog was a little anxious at first but Catrina managed it really well and sent us updates and photos through the day which was so appreciated! Definitely would use Catrina again when we’re back in town.”
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 :)
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.
“Wendy is awesome! She took amazing care of Norman while our family was gone. It was his first stay and she made him feel so comfortable and well taken care of. Plus during his stay, he got to have fun playtimes with other dogs as well! Wendy is very friendly and easy to work with. She was also great with photos/communication during Norman's visit.”
“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. She sent pictures and updates that kept our minds at ease. Her setup is great for the dogs and they made themselves comfortable. Can't say enough great about her!”

About: I am a remote worker with extra time available. I grew up with labs and Shih Tzus as well as cats. I've been dog sitting for the past 8 years and have done volunteer camps at the Willamette Humane Society. I am pretty flexible this summer for house sitting, dog walking, or drop ins. I can feed, walk, play with, cuddle, or even bathe your dog! I'm an animal lover and would be fine with other pets at the house, too. Watching and caring for dogs, cats or other pets is something I love to do on its own, aside from it being a "job." This would be a great way to spend my time. I am currently working part time, so will have time most days for drop ins, walks, etc. I am also available some weekends, as well. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home. If your pet is friendly, then it could be an option for them to come stay at my house.
“On time. She is patient and able to redirect my reactive small dogs with treats and/or a squeaky toy. She goes above and beyond by helping me to continue to train my dogs not to react while on their walks.”
“Elizabeth has been really great! She has made it easy to book services, her notes are detailed and she always shares lots of pictures. Murphy really seems to enjoy his time with her and that means a lot to us.”
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.

“We just finished our first set of walks with Riley and our dog Sahdow is already in love. Knowing he’s availabile for midday walks makes me feel so much better about scheduling out of town travel.”
About: I have grown up being surrounded by dogs! My dad always had dogs in our home. I raised my pitbull/lab mixed breed dog Nala from when I was the age of Ten until she passed away when I was 21 years old. She taught me a lot about being a pet owner as well as a person! She was my best friend🤍 I am a very active, responsible, and empathetic person! I enjoy being outdoors going on long walks, hikes, and runs! I’m always down for a furry friend to tag along :) My current work schedule is 6am to 6pm Sunday through Tuesday :) I am available throughout the week on my days off for some pet care! I am respectful of other spaces! I like to stay occupied and am willing to go on adventures with your fur baby! I am full of love to give for animals. My full time job is caregiving so I’m the kind of person to place others needs before my own, but I do prioritize my health so I’m always in tip top shape for whoever/whatever needs my attention!

About: I have had pets my whole life, different kinds, and ages! I am willing to help with any medication or any special request nothing is too big or too small for me to help with for your peace of mind! I work full time as a QC chemist, but my job is very flexible anyday! I am around almost all the time in the area unless I am going somewhere myself! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs myself. One is 6 years old who is a high energy husky and a 3 year old tuff chiweenie. 😅I have a wife and kids that will extra love on your fur babies as well if you want your fur baby to meet them!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds my whole life. I’ve fostered animals, dog and pet sat, and I have two dogs of my own. I am a college student home for the summer trying to raise money for school. I am excited to help families and meet new animals! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of pups! I either work 8am-1pm or 4pm-8pm on weekdays so I could dog-sit before or after work depending on my shifts and what is needed of me. I have a very flexible schedule and a very open schedule. I can work weekdays or weekends. At home, I have two big rescue dogs that unfortunately aren’t good with other dogs so all pet-sitting will have to be at the client’s home. However, they have given me experience working with reactive and unbehaved dogs so I can provide care for any dog. I have fostered over 10 dogs with my mom from puppies to 12+ aged dogs so I have lots of experience with different breeds, and types of dogs. I am very loving and caring and I love animals so it will be easy for me to love on your pups!
About: I’m experienced in caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I love walking dogs, teaching them new tricks and words and most of all play time outdoors. I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a large fenced yard in NW Albany. I have two doodles in my home. We spend a lot of time outdoors especially in the morning. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and given throughout the day.
About: I have been to go to pet sitter in my neighborhood all of my life. I've dealt with one neighbor's dog in particular who is a difficult dog and requires medication. Pet care is always my number one priority because if someone was taking care of my dog, I would want the same level of care that I provide. I like to learn and also know the routine of the animal I'm watching to best fit their needs and learn or change when necessary.
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 have worked with many different breeds such as pit bulls, boxers, mastiffs, golden retrievers and many more. Each had their own unique needs and personalities. I am willing to work with any breed even with special needs. I have experience with many different animals not just dogs and cats. I have worked with horses, bearded dragons, a few birds and a few more. If your animals needs care i will do it. I have a dog of my own and a bearded dragon so pet care is in my everyday life and so your pet is not much different. I can not board animals in my home cause i have a high anxiety senior dog so bringing any animal in to my home will not work but i will definitely stay at yours cause its a comfort thing for them. Its there own home. It not fair to kick them out of their own home. I have worked with animals for 3 years and been around them my whole life and i never had a problem and i am good at communicating with owners and i will ask questions if needed amd they can ask if needed also.
About: I have taken care of my family’s pets as well as friends and neighbors pets for most of my life because of how much I love animals. I worked in a pet grooming salon for a few years and besides leaning the skills of grooming pets, I also learned to treat their owners with the same amount of care. I am a college student heading into my summer vacation, and would love to spend more time with some furry friends. I am available any day and time of the week. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I always have doggy treats on me in case I meet a friendly pup and I love playing with toys or just cuddling if that is what they enjoy. I have two dogs at home, both are small, one enjoys cuddling and never plays with toys, and the other loves cuddling, but would much rather chase toys that I throw for him.

“Shelby went above and beyond caring for Shadow 🫶 Daily walks, lots of photo updates, and even a thoughtful card and treat at pickup - it meant so much! I could tell he was happy and well cared for the entire time, and will absolutely be booking her again in the future 😊”
“Connie took lots of pictures and was careful to follow all of my instructions. She took the time to meet our dog ahead of hosting him and was very easy to work with. Very responsive.”
“Jade is the BEST. Our pug Ayla had a blast hanging out with her. She is very good at communicating and providing updates while we were away. We plan to rebook with her whenever we are going out of town.”
“Tracy is a great pet lover! She puts all the animal needs first. She house/dog/cat sat for me, gave me updates, and thoroughly enjoyed my very active menagerie. She also hosted my dogs at her home for 3 days, and my dogs had a blast playing with her dogs in her big yard.”
“We threw a small superbowl party at our home. Floki does not do well with guests stopping by, so we searched for near by dog sitter to watch him for the evening. We met with Jordan a couple weeks prior to dropping Floki off. He did well with him and his son. Jordan sent pictures throughout his, putting our mind to ease! The picture of our dog with his head on his son's lap was PERFECT! Like I said, he doesn't do well with strangers stopping by so this made both of us very happy receiving this photo! Floki is a very energetic dog and he was tired when he came home. Jordan took Floki for 2 long walks which was not expected but appreciated! He went above and beyond previous sitters!!! So grateful to have found him! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Oh and another thing that we must mention, he got along with the other dogs he cared for; out of the norm for Floki! We're definitely going to use him for future events.”
“Hailey and her family were absolutely incredible! She provided daily updates and pictures which greatly eased my mind. She went above and beyond to provide sensitive care to my aging dog. I would highly recommend Hailey!”
“I can’t say enough kind words about Gayle and her housemate Seth! They welcomed my boys into their home on very short notice for an overnight stay and fun day of play with their sweet pup Sitka. Sitka was a peach and shared all her toys with my boys. They were like 3 peas in a pod! Gayles home is the ultimate pup set up! Very clean and organized, lots of room inside and out for everyone to run and play freely. She provided me with frequent updates and pics of the boys enjoying themselves and OH! The way they bonded with her housemate! They were so comfortable and enjoyed all the cuddle time he gave them! I was in town for work, but will be making it a point to ask gayle for watching them on future work trips. Thanks so much again!”
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.
“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.”
“Michael was great! He was very kind, and gave me status updates. He treated my dog like part of the family. I would recommend him to everyone and will be using his services in the future whenever he is available.”
“Thanks Chelsea and family! Mia loved it at your house. I appreciated your extra effort to understand my dog and her unique needs. You went out of your way to make sure she was comfortable and had fun at your house. See you again soon!!”
“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 😊”
“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!”
“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!”
“My boys (older doodle and younger dachshund mix) were excited to meet Larissa and I was grateful to see that they settled in quickly. They stayed for 2 days and now I know I have somewhere that they will be safe and taken care of when I’ve got to be away. I received updates that included both pictures and actual descriptions of how things were going with them. If you are looking for a safe, loving, family experience for your fur baby, Larissa is my number one recommendation!”
