“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”

“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!!”

“We recently adopted our dog, who has been through a lot and were worried about leaving him for the first time, but the Armstrongs immediately made us feel comfortable, and that our dog would be left with a loving family. Our pup has some unique behaviors (liking to sit alone, enjoying time outside even if it is raining) and they were more than willing to allow him to be himself, without us having to ask. They also sent so many nice updates that made it easy for my partner and I to enjoy our vacation. Also, when our dog was having trouble eating his meals they kindly found a solution after checking with us to make sure he got food. Looking forward to having our dog stay with the Armstrongs again soon!”

“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.”

“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!”


“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”

“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”


“I had a great experience with Brittany! Very sweet, always communicated and sent me pictures of my fur babies. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!”

About: Growing up with pets, I learned at a very young age, that our family dog did not like being ridden like a horse! While I've been around dogs all my life, most of my experience has been acquired during my adult years. I (Laura) am a freelancing Designer, and my husband (Lawrence) is a retired Registered Nurse. Together we have many years of experience raising our own family dogs: First we had a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, then two Yorkshire Terrier's, and currently a Pomeranian mix... ...We also raised a couple of boys, and their motley-menagerie of creatures. I think my heart doubled in size, when I realized I could combine two of my favorite passion's; hanging out with furry little Lapdogs, and creating miniature fashion's for Sport! I also really enjoy doing 'Street' photography of doggies and their humans. Dogs bring us so much joy, we just love making a fuss over them! We live near Downtown Cottage Grove, in one of it's walkable historic neighborhoods. Ours is a child-free home, offering 'Boarding' and 'Daycare' services--hosting only small lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. Additionally, we also do 'Drop-in' visits in 'your' home for small and medium size dogs. Our fully-fenced backyard features a variety of tree's and flower gardens, with lots of room to romp and play. It's complete with a covered patio that provides protection from rain or sun year around. Most importantly, we want you to feel worry-free, while we keep your doggie safe and happy! We are available full-time to provide pet care. Occasionally, I freelance from home--where I make and sell custom-fit dog wear, including alterations on existing doggie wearables. My husband is retired, so we have very flexible schedules to accommodate and host our Lapdog friends. We can host up to three Lapdogs per day/night. We also can do 'drop-in' visits to your home, for both small and medium size dogs. Well, around here, it's safety first! We host only Lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. (Also, we only take small breed puppies.) Ours is a child-free home, with a fully-fenced backyard. We can host up to three dogs per day/night. I always sleep in the same room with our visiting doggies--either on our comfy sofas, or our king sized bed. My husband is a retired Registered Nurse. Please be mindful that visiting dogs need to be current with vaccines, flea & tick prevention, and an identity tag. We also have zoned heating and air conditioning throughout our house. There's several doggie-beds, toys, and crate (if requested) or feel free to provide your own. Also, we want to know about anything you think would be helpful in making your Doggie's visit a successful stay. We offer lots of love, cuddles, and belly rubs!
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”

About: My family has had dogs my entire life (as well as chickens, ferrets, and a cat!). I've helped train, care for, feed, groom, play with, and dog sit for my family and others, and I'm excited to meet some new furry friends in Eugene! I believe that my biggest strength as a pet sitter is my ability to match your dog's energy level. I love playing tug, fetch, and frisbee, but I'm also always down for a snuggle, backscratch, or bellyrub too. I also don't mind getting licked which has helped me make many furry friends over the years :) I am a student at the U of O, but my schedule is quite flexible. I am available for drop-in visits during the day as well as weeknights after 6pm and all weekend. I believe that building trust with a dog is crucial, so I am intentional about letting them approach me first, sniff me, and take however long they need to feel comfortable in my presence.
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”

“Diane was great! Lilly seemed comfortable there and it’s nice to have the fenced in backyard since we don’t have that at home. I appreciated the updates and pics over the weekend!”

“We are so grateful to Amy & Rob for taking such wonderful care of our dog! We felt that they listened to our care instructions and concerns and felt confident throughout our pup's stay. Amy & Rob were attentive, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay - and provided photos of our dog's meds being administered which we appreciated so much. Our dog came back happy and well-cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Brittany & her husband Eric are phenomenal dog people. Brittany sent me photos and videos every day for 2 full weeks. They have a loving home of dogs. My dog Lila started going blind a year and a half ago. Brittany & Eric made sure she got down the porch steps to their magnificent one acre fenced yard where Lila galloped and played her heart out with several dogs. It was a harmonious excursion. It’s hard to be separated from your animal. And bearable when literally see how much fun your dog is doing. I hope they will take care of Lila every time I go on a trip. I loved that their living room was full of neat dog beds & baskets of toys. This remarkable couple, Eric & Brittany, clear understand dog behavior & know how to alleviate potential problems. I highly recommend them to dog owners seeking a secure place with lots of roaming space for their dogs to have abundant fun. Mara Thygeson”

“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”

“Journey is the best! I had a flight delay and she was so flexible with adjusting the pick-up time for my pups, which was a huge stress relief! I always know my dogs are being well take-care of when Journey has them.”

“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”

“Cecilia and family took great care of my babe over a long weekend while I was out of town. She sent pictures and updates ensuring me she was having a wonderful time sunbathing and getting lots of cuddles. She has a back yard and took Helena outdoors to keep her fit and healthy. Cecilia is responsive and allowed me to be flexible given I was flying. I would recommend Cecilia for your pup's boarding anytime!”

“Kelsee is always such a phenomenal dog sitter! Our pups are so happy that she snuggles and plays with them during her drop in visits to our home. She is so thoughtful, thinking of the smallest details and she always sends the most fun pictures of our pups. We recently had one of our pups pass and Kelsee was so understanding of our changes in routines as the dynamics have been so different since losing a beloved and important member of our pack. We never have a worry when Kelsee is taking care of our dogs and she is the only sitter we ever want to use!”


“Danielle was a fantastic cat sitter for a drop in visits to our FOUR cats with unique needs and medication needs. She was attentive, took notes, asked clarifying questions and wanted to ensure everyone was properly taken care of in our absence. And she successfully did all that and more for us. We will be booking her for future critter care needs!”

“Willow watched our house and animals while we went overseas for over 2 weeks. She did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, the chickens and Baba the turkey. She also was in charge of keeping our gardens watered during super hot tempertures. And she managed to keep all my bird feeders and hummingbird feeders well maintained. It was a lot to expect from someone, but Willow proved to be the right choice for this job. I am very thankful that we found her. I will definitely use her again for our next outing. Thank you.”

About: I am the local cat befriender, crazy cats are fun to play with, aura cats are great to chill with and sassy cats will match my diva energy. All in all, I love how different cats are and taking care of them is great! The wild cats in the neighborhood, my neighbors down the street or even your best friend at home will always feel secure in their cattivities!k
“Hannah was very communicative and attentive. We felt great knowing she was taking care of our cats and she was happy to bring in the mail and keep our plants watered while we were away. We'll be booking her again, for sure!”
About: I’ve owned pets of all kinds my whole life. I’ve been trusted with taking care of my family and friends’ pets since I was twelve. One of my cats is older than me and has been with me my entire life, so I know very well how to take care of elderly and disabled animals, especially cats. I’ve also taken care of multiple very energetic dogs and I know how to handle their behavior. I’m very open to long play sessions or walks, but if a calm presence is what your pet needs, I am very good at providing that as well. I’m very adaptable. Whatever your pet needs, I am more than willing to do my best to give it. I’m a college student who is busy every afternoon but most mornings and almost every evening and night I am fully available for your pet. I’m completely free on the weekends as well. Understanding the signals pets use to communicate is one of the most important things to me. I value your pet’s safety and to me it is very important to know what they’re trying to say in times of crisis. I also am conscious of things in homes that may be harmful to pets, such as certain herbs, scents, or foods, and I go out of my way to ensure that pets do not make contact with anything that could be dangerous to them. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I want them to be met and for your animal to feel safe and comfortable with me and the environment.

“Alexandra dropped by to feed and water my three cats while we were out for 6 days. She sent pictures of the kitties each day, which was nice because I could see they were coming out to eat.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a little girl. Bathing them, walking, playing and feeding them the best meals because that’s what they deserve Waking up in the morning, I feed my baby before I eat. Anything I do through out my day, my baby is involved. No matter what. Following the routine they are used to. Whatever you do for your baby, let me know and I will mirror is exactly. I treat all babies as my own 💛

About: I once had 4 cats in my house. I know how to care for them and make them comfortable as well as entertained. Cats are a special kind of pet and with my years of experience I’m beyond confident I can give them the environment needed to stay safe and healthy, and of course happy.
About: Super experienced with pitbulls and puppies. Dogs are special friends who add a high level of joy to my heart ❤️ I say hi to all the dogs I pass on the street ☺️ I am a single parent with 50% custody and work part time so I have extra time for full time love for your dog family members ❤️ I live 2 minutes from a sweet dog walking area around a lake and I prioritize making sure the dog’s needs before leaving for the day!
About: I've been actively taking care of dogs and cats for other military families since July 2018. Most of this care has been centered around boarding for long vacations or deployments. I provide boarding for all dog breeds, boarding includes; feeding, walking, baths, and cuddles. When your dog is in my care, they are treated like my own dogs. For cats I provide drop in care because most cats don't like being removed from their homes. I am a huge cat person and when your cat is in my care I will do anything to gain their trust. I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to provide board and drop in care daily. I am home most days from work at 3pm and have weekends off. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs of my own who are eager to play with new friends. I love to do treat hunts with toys and go for daily walks. For drop In care at your home I provide plenty of playtime, litter box cleaning, walking and cuddles with your pets.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have been caring for them at an early age. One of my first jobs was at a dog daycare facility that included boarding, house sitting and dog walking in our services. I have 5+ years experience in the veterinary field. I am familiar with all types of dog breeds and behaviors. I am a full time mom and a part time barista, but have fairly open days to add some walks or drop ins to my schedule. I have experience housesitting pets and following instructions that each pet parent leaves. I am comfortable feeding, handling, giving medication, picking up poop, basically anything that needs to be done to keep pet parents and pets happy!

“This was our first time using a sitter that was not a family member so we were a little nervous about the situation. But chatting with Hannah and relaying our concerns to her before the stay really eased our mind . During Rosie’s stay Hannah kept me posted on her activities and also provided several pictures. I could see that she was being well cared for . Her service provided us the opportunity to attend our grandsons wedding and we are extremely thankful. Rosie appeared to have enjoyed her adventure and meeting new friends . We would book with her again and highly recommended Hannah if you’re looking for a caring, kind and reliable sitter. Thank you Hannah -”

“Laura, Lawrence & Lilah took wonderful care of Bella. She had never stayed or been around other dogs. Bella and Lilah were friends right off. They sent me many pictures which made my vacation less stressful. Bella was very comfortable there, it showed in their pictures. I would give them a 5 plus 🌟”

“We had a last minute change in our typical dog care. We came across Tessa and she is absolutely wonderful. They have a great large fenced property and right away I knew my doggos would be in a good space. She is great about sending updates and pictures, which was comforting in knowing they are well taken care of. Picked them up today and they are exhausted, which tells me they enjoyed their time. Will use them again.”

“I visited Eugene and needed some day care for my pups. Morgan is the first sitter I’ve felt totally comfortable leaving my dogs with in a long time. They both have their own unique personalities that require a watchful eye; Morgan was able to assure me they would be safe and upon meeting her I instantly knew they would be. She even went out of her way to help transport them at the end of day. Highly recommend Morgan (shoutout to her adorable dog Clover)!”

“Joel & his wife were wonderful. We dropped our old lady blind pup Gouda with them, so we xoukd explore Eugene and areas for the day. They took us at the last minute and gave us great and kind service!”

“Our pups were relaxed and happy when we picked them up. A good sign they got lots of cuddle time. We will definitely use Joshua when we are back in the area.”


“Daycare was a wonderful experience with Jennifer and Josh! Berry’s first visit was fantastic. He got to play and socialize, and I felt no worries while he was there. The meet and greet the day before was perfect assurance that it would be a good and safe fit. Drop off and pick up was very smooth and I received a photo and an update on how he was doing during the stay. Jennifer was also kind enough to give me feedback and guidance on training. Really looking forward to having Berry stay with them again soon.”

“We had an outstanding experience with Erika. She really went the extra mile in being prepared, communicating well with us and giving Ruby a lot of exercise, as well as companionship with her dog. Highly recommended.”

“Journey is the perfect sitter for our reactive baby. I could immediately tell she has lots of experience and is comfortable with even fearful dogs like ours. The thing about Journey that I am most appreciative of is that she has Fear Free certification. She showed in all her communication with me that she understood Guinness’s needs through his body language and was respectful of his boundaries (however long they lasted, apparently he got pretty cuddly!). I will definitely be bringing Guinness back for boarding, daycare, and probably grooming too. I can’t express how grateful I am to imagine being able to board Guinness and therefore travel again! Thank you, Journey!”


“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”

“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”

About: Hi there! My journey in professional animal care began early, shadowing my mother in her animal behavior and care business. I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of species—including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, cattle, goats, and rabbits—which shaped my understanding of how to meet animals where they are: emotionally, behaviorally, and physically. While I am not a licensed dog trainer, I’ve spent much of my life developing a thoughtful, intuitive approach to animal care. My professional background includes extensive training in wildlife handling and care techniques. During college, I volunteered at the Cascades Raptor Center in Eugene, assisting with the daily care and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, building trust through reliability, compassion, and a deep respect for each animal’s unique needs. Now, I’m excited to offer my experience and dedication to the local community. I’m Fear Free Certified for dogs, and while I’m not certified for cats or other animals, I apply many of the same principles across species: 🧘♀️ Creating low-stress environments 🐾 Respecting boundaries and body language 🛏️ Offering comfort, routine, and enrichment 🐕🦺 Using gentle handling and positive reinforcement In 2024, I worked with shelter animals at Greenhill Humane Society, where I received extensive behavioral training and advanced to independently care for dogs and support enrichment for cats. That experience helped me develop a deep understanding of animal behavior, stress signals, and how to build trust with pets from all backgrounds. What I offer: 🐶🐱 Drop-in visits, walks, feeding, litter care & medication support 🧶 Enrichment activities tailored to your pet’s personality 📸 Daily updates with photos and notes 🐾 Experience with seniors, shy pets, and those with special needs Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I bring calm energy, reliable care, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Thank you for considering me — as someone who has also used Rover for my own pets, I know it can be daunting to find the perfect fit for your furbabies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or extended overnight care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs without the constraints of a traditional 9–5 job. Because I’m home-based, I can offer: 🐕 Timely potty breaks and walks 🐈 Calm, low-stress drop-ins for cats and small pets 🐾 Flexible scheduling for last-minute requests Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or more involved care, I’m able to integrate it seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I currently do not offer in-home boarding, but I provide personalized care in your pet’s own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it's a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins throughout the day, I tailor each session to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. Because I work from home, my schedule is flexible—I can accommodate midday visits, early mornings, or evening care depending on your pet’s habits. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience by respecting their space, reading their body language, and offering enrichment that suits their personality. Your pet gets: 🐾 Familiar surroundings and routines 🧘♀️ Low-stress care with gentle handling 🐕 Walks, playtime, feeding & medication support 📸 Updates so you stay connected I treat every visit as a chance to build trust and make your pet’s day better. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I’m here to meet them where they are.
“I appreciated Claire's thoughtful intake process, her speed at replying, and her feedback from my girl's visit. Claire clearly cares about dogs and facilitating doggie-people relationships. I recommend her and look forward to booking future stays with her.”

“Denise did a great job! Biscuit was happy when we picked her up. She took Biscuit for walks and recorded them. Biscuit was comfortable enough to take a nap. I also appreciate the good day care price. We will use her again.”

“Howser thoroughly enjoyed his time with Angie and her pups! It's so comforting to know he gets to be with a true dog lover when I need to be away from him.”

“Mari and Steve provided a wonderful experience from beginning to end. They took extra care to make our dog and us feel at ease, communication was quick, and our dog left daycare happy and well loved!”

About: I love dogs, and can't wait to meet yours! I will closely follow your instructions to provide the kind of care I would expect for my own dog. I'm willing to work with you and your schedule. I'm a firm believer in the power of clear communication and honesty. You can expect regular updates, lots of love, attention, and with permission, a moderate amount of treats. My fenced yard is sufficient for pee breaks and I'm in a great location to walk over to local parks for number twos and exercise. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to hearing from you, and meeting your dog! I'm looking forward to spending my days off with your dog! I'm especially interested in long walks with chill dogs. Always positively reinforcing good behavior with praise, attention, and play. I have a fenced yard. I'm willing to spend lots of time with your dog, doing whatever it is they love to do. My availability is my weekends so that dogs in my care will not be left alone.

“Rosa was so helpful in caring for my dog while she recovered from an injury. Melon was so happy to see her when we got to her house so I know she was given tons of love and attention. I would recommend Rosa to anyone!”

“Amazing, fit, easy going, capable, reliable, on time. Lisa accommodated me on very short notice wlkg Hoot & Holler. I cant handle them on my own so Lisa helped me in getting some of their energy out. We wlkd just in the neighborhood and everything was great. Lisa is very easy to chat with, a real down to earth gal! I highly recommend. I wish I had found her before we were moving bk to WA!!!!”


About: I believe the best thing about pet sitting is offering pets the same love and attention that their owners give them. I am easy going, very reliable and will follow all instructions for your pet’s care. I care for both domestic and farm animals. ❤️ I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. That makes it easier for drop in visits. When I stay over, I may need to leave for an errand but I will be at your home as expected. I respect your privacy and will care for your home like it is my own. I depend on repeat bookings so you can expect the best service!
“Kyimani has been so great with my dogs. She has watched them 3 times this week, and every time she watches them I feel I can breathe easy when I am away. She really takes the time to get to know both of my dogs personalities, and treats them very well. I know that when I book with Kyimani that my dogs are going to be very well taken care of. After she’s finished she writes very descriptive report cards for my dogs, which always make me laugh and smile because I can tell she is getting to know each of my dogs. If you are looking for a trusting and caring sitter, I recommend Kyimani all the way. I’m already booking with her next week as well!”

About: I have a dog and three cats, I do school online and have a very open schedule. I grew up with animals and babysit frequently. I’ve watched rabbits to horses and everything in between.

My cats are all free range in the house and we have gates put in place so they can have their own space.

About: Safety is always my number one priority while pet sitting. I make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and cared for in a safe environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner guidelines to keep every pet healthy, comfortable, and protected at all times. Although I do work a part-time job, I try my best to fit pet sitting in my schedule because it’s what I love to do! Animals will always be well taken care of, I insure that your pets will be let out before I have to take off for work, making sure water is full and fresh. I will be back to love and care you’re pet in a timely manner! Although I do not offer boarding, I prefer watching animals in their owner’s home because I feel like it makes the animals more comfortable to be in a well-known environment. My biggest priority is making sure the owners have peace of mind while they are away and know that their animals are in a safe hands.

About: I will care for and love on your animals like they are my own. I follow their vibe, wanna play, we play, wanna walk, we walk, wanna cuddle, we cuddle ♡ easy peasy.

Just let me know any routines you like to do with your pet.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs in my house and I had pet frogs! I previously was a pet sitter for dogs, cats, and sometimes other critters. Afternoon/evening/overnights during the week, or weekends work best for me as I do work.

I will happily send cute pictures throughout the visit! I am comfortable asking clarifying questions.

I have raised fish in both tanks and ponds. Other services I provide include Drop-In Visits, Nail Trims, Administration of Medications and House Sitting. I am trained and skilled in recognizing abnormal behaviors and I am quick to act when care is necessary. *As of 2026 I am not currently up-to-date in animal CPR, but have previously completed this course for cats and dogs through a licensed veterinarian in Lake Oswego, Oregon and have real life experience using this life saving technique. PLEASE NOTE IN ADVANCE if your fluff baby does not yet handle children. I am a homeschooling mom and my Mini-Me is often with me on my visits. I currently have 3 dogs, 7 fish, a collared lizard, and a human child (and a husband lol). My rate varies and I accommodate sliding-scale needs. I home-school my gifted 3rd grader and work super-part time with my government job. This means I'm very flexible! I can mold my day around your furbabies schedule. **I can do doggy day care or over nights at my home for well established clients only.** I have a fully fenced, dog and child-centric acre with grass and gravel, sun and shade. I keep all gates closed or locked. With the exception of the doggy door so pups have freedom to come in from the elements or to go out for fresh air and potty breaks.
About: I love all critters and have an especially soft place in my heart for the elderly and/or disabled. I started by volunteering for neighbors friends on trips or working 12 hours shifts, just to stay busy, and it was awesome to see how my daily visits helped their overall health over time. Visiting with critters is always the highlight of my day. I move slowly, carefully, speak softly, so my energy is a great fit for older or anxious animals. I love them all, and every step. Greeting, walking, playing, chilling, pets and massage, special diets, and I have no problem helping administer medicine or any extra special care that is needed. It would be an honor to be of service for you and your fur baby :) I am flexible and available, single, no kids, and also a home care worker. I only work 4 hour shifts, so pet care can very easily fit in and around my other work schedule. When I meet you and your pet, you can show me the care routine, and I will confirm that I understand every step. What works well is if the supplies are visible and steps are also written down and left somewhere I can refer to if needed. I will take photos to either text or email you while I am at your home with an update for each visit.

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and even reptiles. I am currently training to become a dog groomer and I’m taking classes to get my vet tech certification. I have the experience and knowledge necessary to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable and happy with me. I am currently working part time so I have the availability to care for your animals without anything impeding my ability to keep a close eye on them. My house is a large space with a very large fenced in back yard. I have two dogs that are easy to get along with. I have animal gates I can secure if you’d prefer your pets to be separated from my two small pups. I have 3 bedrooms so I can even dedicate a room to just your animal so they have a private and comfortable space.
About: I have three beautiful cats at home that are super energetic and snuggly! My family had cats while I was in high school and I love being around all animals! Just moved to Eugene from Tennessee and currently have open availability! I’m an early riser so if you need a dog walked in the morning, I’ve got you! I have a car and am willing to walk or bus as well! Our house is plentiful of cat trees, window perches and tunnels! We give them fresh food and water every day and they all get individualized attention! I will do the exact same for your pets!
About: I’m constantly around animals. I’m wanting to become a veterinarian technician once I get into collage. I was raised having animals. I don’t recall any animals not liking me. I’m a very genuine person. I am very caring when it comes to animals. I’m a huge animal lover also very active when it comes to walks. I’ll make sure ur animals are well cared for. And your house. I was raised a hard worker and very responsible. I promise I will not let you down if you hire me. I hope I can show you how much care I will give for ur animals and I won’t let you down! I am not working right now, so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am free every day. I am available anytime. I will make sure they have everything they need to survive with, food, water, toys, and treats if they need. I can put them in their kennel if need be, and make sure they are well taken care of with lots of love.
About: I’m very responsible and great with animals. I have taken care of my cat, Baby, since I was 6! I also have a lot of pet sitting experience! I am always the go-to person for my friends and family. I am available Saturdays-Mondays! I am very flexible! I am also okay with late nights! Whatever works best for you and your best friend ! :) I am available to take care of your pets at your house! I can either drop in or stay there! Whatever is most comfortable to you :)
About: My wife and I have a combined experience of 14 years taking care of all kinds of animals. We see them as family. We were a former care coordinator for our local humane society before moving to Oregon and take looking after your family very seriously. Don't like a male in your home? No problem we'll arrange for my wife to present instead. We work together for you! After the passing of our dog we wanted to start Rover in memory of our Chewy we have 2 Cats and 1 small Senior Dog that would be isolated in our master bedroom to give your family member the space and attention they deserve! We can work all hours. My wife and I have very open availability to make any schedule work! Let us know what you would like! We have an apartment, with spare bedrooms, experience with puppies, kittens, sick animals, and special needs animals. (: If you want someone that knows what they're doing we're here for you!

“Jared took very good care of my Panini. She was very happy to have a walk during the middle of the day. Jared was friendly and responsive. Definitely will use him again for other services.”

“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”

“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!!”

“We recently adopted our dog, who has been through a lot and were worried about leaving him for the first time, but the Armstrongs immediately made us feel comfortable, and that our dog would be left with a loving family. Our pup has some unique behaviors (liking to sit alone, enjoying time outside even if it is raining) and they were more than willing to allow him to be himself, without us having to ask. They also sent so many nice updates that made it easy for my partner and I to enjoy our vacation. Also, when our dog was having trouble eating his meals they kindly found a solution after checking with us to make sure he got food. Looking forward to having our dog stay with the Armstrongs again soon!”


“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”

“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”


“I had a great experience with Brittany! Very sweet, always communicated and sent me pictures of my fur babies. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!”

About: My family has had dogs my entire life (as well as chickens, ferrets, and a cat!). I've helped train, care for, feed, groom, play with, and dog sit for my family and others, and I'm excited to meet some new furry friends in Eugene! I believe that my biggest strength as a pet sitter is my ability to match your dog's energy level. I love playing tug, fetch, and frisbee, but I'm also always down for a snuggle, backscratch, or bellyrub too. I also don't mind getting licked which has helped me make many furry friends over the years :) I am a student at the U of O, but my schedule is quite flexible. I am available for drop-in visits during the day as well as weeknights after 6pm and all weekend. I believe that building trust with a dog is crucial, so I am intentional about letting them approach me first, sniff me, and take however long they need to feel comfortable in my presence.
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”

“Brittany & her husband Eric are phenomenal dog people. Brittany sent me photos and videos every day for 2 full weeks. They have a loving home of dogs. My dog Lila started going blind a year and a half ago. Brittany & Eric made sure she got down the porch steps to their magnificent one acre fenced yard where Lila galloped and played her heart out with several dogs. It was a harmonious excursion. It’s hard to be separated from your animal. And bearable when literally see how much fun your dog is doing. I hope they will take care of Lila every time I go on a trip. I loved that their living room was full of neat dog beds & baskets of toys. This remarkable couple, Eric & Brittany, clear understand dog behavior & know how to alleviate potential problems. I highly recommend them to dog owners seeking a secure place with lots of roaming space for their dogs to have abundant fun. Mara Thygeson”

“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”

“Journey is the best! I had a flight delay and she was so flexible with adjusting the pick-up time for my pups, which was a huge stress relief! I always know my dogs are being well take-care of when Journey has them.”

“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”

“Cecilia and family took great care of my babe over a long weekend while I was out of town. She sent pictures and updates ensuring me she was having a wonderful time sunbathing and getting lots of cuddles. She has a back yard and took Helena outdoors to keep her fit and healthy. Cecilia is responsive and allowed me to be flexible given I was flying. I would recommend Cecilia for your pup's boarding anytime!”

“What a fun, loving home for pups! We dropped off our 2-year-old lab for the day while we were in Eugene for a track meet. We'll definitely book again the next time we're in town.”

“Hannah did a great job with Archer! She got Archer to eat when he was being finicky. Both of our old dogs seemed to get along well. I appreciated all the updates and pics. She was super flexible with drop off and pick up times and was very communicative.”


About: I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and routine. With my own experience caring for multiple dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has different needs—and I’ll make sure yours feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work part-time, so I’m available Thursday evening through Monday evening. I’m also available for overnight boarding, giving your pets plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. We have a fenced backyard, and 2 friendly dogs. Benny, 3 year old Golden Mountain Dog and Walter, 8 year old Golden Retriever. We also have 2 indoor/outdoor cats.
“Julie was so awesome! She sent updates with pics throughout each day which was sooooo very relieving for me. I could tell that my dog was being well cared for and being taken on many adventures :) He seemed to enjoy his time with Julie and I would definitely recommend her and/or ask her to board my doggie again.”

“Cory, Matthew and their daughter were gentle and patient with our little timid dog. They were accommodating in feeding, treats, and bedtime routines to make her comfortable, and even gave her some snuggle time in the morning. They have a great setup in their home and back yard for a dog, and ours came home healthy and happy. We’d gladly ask this family to board our beloved pooch again!”

“My dog had a great time with Cameron and her dog Bo. I was updated daily on the fun they were having. She treated my dog like part of the family. We will definitely use Cameron in the future.”
