About: Hi! My name is Kaitie and I’m a reliable, caring animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets of all kinds. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a consistent routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is receiving excellent care. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved companion! I’m available to care for your pets Saturday–Monday and every other Tuesday. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, or companionship, I’m happy to provide reliable and loving care during those days. Message me anytime to check availability for your dates! 🐶🐱💕 I treat every pet as if they were my own—with kindness, patience, and lots of attention. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I focus on maintaining their normal routine and making them feel loved and comfortable. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, play sessions, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they need while you’re away. I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being.
“Makenzie took such great care of our 4 month old pup! She was very communicative, sent photos and even taught him how to lay down. I highly recommend Makenzie and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Our dogs loved staying with Skye! They got to go on many walks, explore outside, and even sleep on the couch. Skye sent texts with photos and updates throughout the time we were away, giving me peace about how they were doing. The dogs seemed comfortable at Skye’s and I felt fine leaving my babies in her care.”
“Allison goes above and beyond to ensure my pup was welcomed and comfortable. From the daily updates and pictures while I was away relieved me of worry and anxieties wondering if my Maggie was okay. Allison is very caring and has a big heart for her dogs and the one she takes care of. Would highly recommend for dog sitting and will be returning for future away trips when vacations come up.”
“I needed a dog sitter at the last minute, and Toyatunya came through for me. She was super responsive to questions, sent pics every day, and took the best care of my babies. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Louise was wonderful :) She came to my rescue when my usual sitter was unable to take care of my little cockapoo. She responded quickly, was extremely flexible in meeting my needs - I needed a place for Kuchoo for the next day, and she arranged her schedule so I could drop her off right before I left for the airport. She also was very flexible in when I could not pick her up which was late in the evening. She asked me about Kuchoo and what she liked or did throughout the day, so that she could make sure she could do the same. She had us meet her dogs together, before I left - which helped me be relaxed about her 2 dogs - whom are sweet as well. While I was away, Louise even send me a picture of my dog playing with her dogs, and send me brief emails about how she was doing. All in all, from now on, I am sure to use Louise whenever I leave town. I felt completely comfortable with the arrangement and knew that my Kuchoo would like her experience. Thank you Louise :)”
“We were concerned about leaving our little girl with a sitter for a long trip; however, Peggie was fantastic. She took great care of our girl exceeded all of our expectations. We had a lot of peace of mind during our trip. Highly recommended.”
About: I am comfortable with all animal types and caring for their special needs. I’ve worked on a ranch so i’m fond with it all. I have experience with senior animals that need extra help, and have recently cared for puppies 1 and under. Pet care fits into my daily routine by waking up and it being the only thing on my mind. I feed my dogs then take them on a long walk to get their energy out. I play with my dogs at least 5 times a day, ending it with their special food and another walk to the park. I care for pets in my clients home the same way I would my own, with love, care, and respect. I treat the animals I care for like they’re the only thing that matters!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Over the years, friends and family have consistently trusted me to care for their pets as if they were my own—whether that means daily walks, overnight stays, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship and love. I take pride in being a dependable, compassionate sitter who creates a calm, safe, and happy environment while you’re away. I have a 4-yr old dog now named, Buckaroo, who is amazing with a majority of dogs. I work remotely for Aya Healthcare, a nurse and Locums management company. I am free to get away to walk your pet, or even stay at your place overnight and work from there. Plenty of schedule flexibility. I provide personalized, attentive care based on each pet’s routine and the specific service requested. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help reduce stress. I ensure a safe, clean environment, give plenty of affection and exercise, and closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully, including administering basic medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.
“Cory watched our 3-month old puppy Willa for a few nights, and we had such a great experience with her. She had us come over to meet Willa before we booked officially, and made us feel so comfortable, letting us see her house and where Willa would be, and taking Willa for a little stroll around the block with us. She kept us updated the whole time Willa was there, sending photos and little notes which made us feel SO much better as it was our first time being away from our puppy! Cory also really cared about our schedule with Willa and wanted to keep up the training we'd been doing with her. She asked tons of detailed questions which I really appreciated. We already have her booked again for the holidays! We're so grateful we found her.”
“Charlie was amazing with our bratty dog! My husband was very skeptical at first, because we were leaving the country and leaving our dog with a new sitter. But Charlie sent us updates several times a day of the hikes and playtimes and interactions with the other dogs. We received photos and videos of the daily activities. Charlie is an amazing communicator and is amazing with dogs. Our girl came home exhausted from 12 days of fun! We will most definitely use Charlie again and would highly recommend him to anyone, needing a dog sitter.”
“Jessica was awesome! A previously arranged dog sitter fell through and Jessica was able to do a meet and greet last minute and board my dog for that weekend in her home. Her house and backyard space is set up great for dogs. Bruno loved laying in the sun in her yard. She was very responsive and sent pics everyday while Bruno was with her. I will definitely be using her again!”
“This family is so wonderful to Jake, and always so accommodating (appreciate the early morning drop off to make a flight). Thank you for taking such great care of our senior dog!!”
“Annemarie was wonderful. Attentive, great with communicating and keeping us updated. She really went above and beyond in caring for our girl, we are grateful to have found her!”
“Diana was amazing with my dog Stella. It was first time for my puppy to be boarded and I know she had the best time with Diana. I was worried that Stella wouldn’t want to come back from her place :) they took her for a walk, to the river and Stella had amazing time with Diana’s dog too. I really appreciate all the loving they gave my Stella.”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever and had a Heeler mix for 16 years that traveled cross country with me. I’ve got great experience with elderly dogs and young dogs alike. My fiancé and I are home quite a bit with fenced yard, but love to hike in the area to make sure dogs get all the exercise they need! I have mornings off, so plenty of time for walks and hikes. My fiancé is a ski coach with summers off and is home most of the day to hang with the dogs. I have a fully fenced yard to play in with plenty of sunshine. Plenty of time spent at home to socialize and exercise! Morning and evening walks close to parks and hiking.
About: We are a married couple that work from home and have a friendly 3 year old golden retriever and an 11 month Collie Mix. We have decided to host one dog (family) at a time. We are home bodies and our pups love having company. When you book with us feel safe knowing both of us will be at home with your dog and monitoring their safety. We both grew up with family dogs and other pets and we understand the scary feeling of boarding your dog. We are happy to meet and answer any questions before taking in your dog. We will update you daily (at a minimum) of how they are doing, including sending pictures of course. As mentioned, we work from home. Our schedules are very flexible. When we book a stay we plan on staying home and playing with the dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard where our boy Lambeau plays. Your dog will be part of the family and free to roam the house and yard as they please.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Carson
“Rebecca responded quickly to all of our questions and was patient. We had never put our dog Izzie in a kennel before. The photos of their facilities gave a good sense of what the dogs were provided with inside and outside, and photos of Izzie Rebecca sent to us on the days Rebecca was caring for Izzie were fun and reassuring. Lastly, their roaming farm animals were a delight. We will kennel our dog with Rebecca whenever we are in this part of the Columbia Gorge.”
“Makenzie was responsive, easy to work with, and kind to my dog. Her dog Mochi is a well behaved playmate and my pup came back happy and tired after getting long walks and lots of playtime in the yard.”
“It felt so great to leave my pup with Laura - from the moment I dropped her off I knew my pup was in safe and loving arms. Loved the picks of my pup on a walk and grateful for Laura's flexibility as my drop off and pick up times were changing. Definitely recommend Laura for your pet.”
“Cory was a lifesaver for me. I was in town for a wedding and frantic and she picked Franklin up and dropped him off for me at my hotel. She was super flexible about my time leaving since I wasn’t exactly sure when I’d be back. She sent me photos and updates the whole day. I’m so grateful she was available.”
“Charlie was awesome! We needed some last minute doggy daycare and he came through for us. He clearly loves dogs and has a wonderful property to host them. While watching our guy, he was communicative and attentive to our dog’s needs. We would definitely recommend his services!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 16 years old. I love caring for the pet of others and allowing pet owners to have peace of mind when they are away. I care for the pets of others if they were my own. I work from home, so I am flexible. When I pet sit sometimes the animals will hang out with me in my office while I am working, or sometimes I will find them in the living room sleeping on the couch. I care for pets in my home by allowing them to roam freely as if were their own home. It will vary depending on the type of care you pet needs. Special diets, etc.
“Tracy and her family did a wonderful of taking care of Ollie. He was very calm and not at all anxious when coming home and loved all the attention he was given. I will be leaving him with her on a regular basis.”
About: I have experience providing attentive pet care, including administering medication to cats safely and calmly. I cared for a kitten with asthma, monitoring symptoms closely and ensuring medication was given on schedule. I am patient and gentle, helping pets stay comfortable and stress-free during treatment. As a teacher, I have summers off and a very flexible schedule during that time. During the school year, I’m available in the evenings and on weekends for pet sitting and drop-ins. I keep a safe, calm home for pets—run by two cats and one dog who think they’re in charge. I understand pet dynamics and make sure every animal feels comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I love dogs!:) I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for dog walking many hours of the day.Thanks for considering me! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pup company. I am in good health and can walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood when needed!
About: I love working with all types of animals. I'm a passionate outdoor girl that loves any type of adventure and love to take my girls everywhere to, so let me take yours with me! On my farm, I care for dogs, cats, and chickens! I have taught them to co-exist and also be themselves at the same time. Patience, love and lots of treats along with their favorite toy or exercise type whether it is 1-1 or a the dog park! To me it is about adapting to them and seeing the happy wags and the toothy (sometimes weird) smiles! We love to do adventures outdoors if they are up for it, but sometimes they may need a little TLC while you are gone so that's ok too. I have a very flexible schedule where I live and work from home and adjust my schedule to suit them. Nature calls and when it does, time to go! Also, when they need extra attention of a little hug or extra treat, it's about mind reading in a way, and I love trying to figure out their little brains! Most people and their pets have a routine. That's important. It's about communication and understanding the basic needs in life. Also, most importantly how many beds they get to have! Rules are rules and happy to follow any that come along. My house is flexible as there is literally nothing they can hurt or damage that cannot be easily replaced or fixed. Although my goal is to wear them out where they only need some treats, love and a nice soft bed from the start of the morning until they are out for the count.
“My pup, Ella, truly enjoyed her stay with Amber and her family of dogs. I love the photos and care Amber showed Ella. I also very much appreciate the last minute accommodations Amber made for us!! Thanks!! See you again…”

I know how scary it is to leave your pet alone with a new person and I'd love to be the person that treats your fur baby exactly how you prefer. I am a Cincinnati transplant who just moved to Portland. I am currently working part time, and I would love to spend my free time hanging out with your animals.

About: I stand out because I’m patient, reliable, and truly dedicated to helping pets feel safe and understood. I have experience with all ages, from energetic puppies who need guidance and structure to senior pets who require extra gentleness and attention. I also cared for a family’s diabetic cat for a full week, giving daily insulin shots and monitoring their behavior to make sure they stayed comfortable and healthy. I treat every pet like my own, and I’m always focused on creating a calm, loving environment tailored to their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently work part-time at a restaurant from 2pm–7:30pm a few days a week, and I’m a part-time online college student. This gives me plenty of flexibility, especially in the mornings and evenings. I use this open time to focus fully on walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and any special pet needs. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m happy to structure my day around making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well taken care of. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I follow their routines exactly so pets feel secure—whether that’s feeding times, walking routes, or specific care instructions. I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I keep a close eye on behavior or any changes in health. I give updates, photos, and messages so owners know their pets are happy and safe. My goal is to create a calm, dependable environment where each pet feels understood, respected, and cared for just like they would by their own family.

“Makenzie took such great care of our 4 month old pup! She was very communicative, sent photos and even taught him how to lay down. I highly recommend Makenzie and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Our dogs loved staying with Skye! They got to go on many walks, explore outside, and even sleep on the couch. Skye sent texts with photos and updates throughout the time we were away, giving me peace about how they were doing. The dogs seemed comfortable at Skye’s and I felt fine leaving my babies in her care.”
“Allison goes above and beyond to ensure my pup was welcomed and comfortable. From the daily updates and pictures while I was away relieved me of worry and anxieties wondering if my Maggie was okay. Allison is very caring and has a big heart for her dogs and the one she takes care of. Would highly recommend for dog sitting and will be returning for future away trips when vacations come up.”

About: I am comfortable with all animal types and caring for their special needs. I’ve worked on a ranch so i’m fond with it all. I have experience with senior animals that need extra help, and have recently cared for puppies 1 and under. Pet care fits into my daily routine by waking up and it being the only thing on my mind. I feed my dogs then take them on a long walk to get their energy out. I play with my dogs at least 5 times a day, ending it with their special food and another walk to the park. I care for pets in my clients home the same way I would my own, with love, care, and respect. I treat the animals I care for like they’re the only thing that matters!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Over the years, friends and family have consistently trusted me to care for their pets as if they were my own—whether that means daily walks, overnight stays, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship and love. I take pride in being a dependable, compassionate sitter who creates a calm, safe, and happy environment while you’re away. I have a 4-yr old dog now named, Buckaroo, who is amazing with a majority of dogs. I work remotely for Aya Healthcare, a nurse and Locums management company. I am free to get away to walk your pet, or even stay at your place overnight and work from there. Plenty of schedule flexibility. I provide personalized, attentive care based on each pet’s routine and the specific service requested. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help reduce stress. I ensure a safe, clean environment, give plenty of affection and exercise, and closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully, including administering basic medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.
“Charlie was amazing with our bratty dog! My husband was very skeptical at first, because we were leaving the country and leaving our dog with a new sitter. But Charlie sent us updates several times a day of the hikes and playtimes and interactions with the other dogs. We received photos and videos of the daily activities. Charlie is an amazing communicator and is amazing with dogs. Our girl came home exhausted from 12 days of fun! We will most definitely use Charlie again and would highly recommend him to anyone, needing a dog sitter.”
“Jessica was awesome! A previously arranged dog sitter fell through and Jessica was able to do a meet and greet last minute and board my dog for that weekend in her home. Her house and backyard space is set up great for dogs. Bruno loved laying in the sun in her yard. She was very responsive and sent pics everyday while Bruno was with her. I will definitely be using her again!”
“This family is so wonderful to Jake, and always so accommodating (appreciate the early morning drop off to make a flight). Thank you for taking such great care of our senior dog!!”
“Annemarie was wonderful. Attentive, great with communicating and keeping us updated. She really went above and beyond in caring for our girl, we are grateful to have found her!”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever and had a Heeler mix for 16 years that traveled cross country with me. I’ve got great experience with elderly dogs and young dogs alike. My fiancé and I are home quite a bit with fenced yard, but love to hike in the area to make sure dogs get all the exercise they need! I have mornings off, so plenty of time for walks and hikes. My fiancé is a ski coach with summers off and is home most of the day to hang with the dogs. I have a fully fenced yard to play in with plenty of sunshine. Plenty of time spent at home to socialize and exercise! Morning and evening walks close to parks and hiking.
About: We are a married couple that work from home and have a friendly 3 year old golden retriever and an 11 month Collie Mix. We have decided to host one dog (family) at a time. We are home bodies and our pups love having company. When you book with us feel safe knowing both of us will be at home with your dog and monitoring their safety. We both grew up with family dogs and other pets and we understand the scary feeling of boarding your dog. We are happy to meet and answer any questions before taking in your dog. We will update you daily (at a minimum) of how they are doing, including sending pictures of course. As mentioned, we work from home. Our schedules are very flexible. When we book a stay we plan on staying home and playing with the dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard where our boy Lambeau plays. Your dog will be part of the family and free to roam the house and yard as they please.
“Emily was so great!! She watched our golden retriever who has a lot of energy and my dog was so tired and happy when I picked her up. Her dogs are so sweet and had so much fun with my dog, and I felt like Emily was really caring and understanding of some diet needs she has. I’ll definitely board with her again!”
“Andrea took wonderful care of our pug while we were away and we highly recommend her! She was super easy to communicate with and also flexible when we requested to add a couple days so that we could extend our trip. She's friendly and helpful, as is her family and puppy. Thank you so much Andrea!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by pets of all kinds, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Today, I’m a proud dog dad to a sweet two-year-old German Shepherd who keeps life active, fun, and full of playtime. I’m currently in graduate school and spend most of my week studying from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. Our home has a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, and we’re located near several great parks where I regularly take my dog for walks and exercise—your pup is always welcome to join us! My German Shepherd is very friendly, well-socialized, and loves meeting new dogs, so if your dog enjoys having a playmate, they’ll have a built-in buddy here. Between park trips, backyard time, enrichment activities, and lots of affection, I aim to make every dog feel comfortable, stimulated, and right at home. I’m also happy to be flexible with your dog’s routine and needs—whether that means specific walk schedules, feeding times, or play preferences. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup has a safe, fun, and loving stay. As a graduate student currently completing my master’s degree, I spend most of my week studying and working from home. Because of this, I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention and consistent care throughout the day. My typical routine includes a morning walk or park visit to start the day, outdoor playtime and stimulation in the afternoon, and another walk or activity in the evening. Since I’m home, your pup won’t be left alone and will have lots of supervision, companionship, and opportunities for exercise. My schedule is also flexible, so I’m happy to adjust walks, playtime, feeding, and rest periods to match your dog’s normal routine and needs. I offer a calm, safe home environment that’s perfect for dogs who need a comfortable place to stay. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can play and explore safely, and my home has plenty of space for them to relax indoors as well. I don’t have children, which helps keep the environment quiet and predictable for pets who may prefer a more peaceful setting. I also keep a clean, pet-friendly space and closely supervise dogs both inside and outside to make sure they’re always secure and comfortable. My goal is to make every dog feel at home while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in a safe, attentive environment.
About: I have experience providing attentive pet care, including administering medication to cats safely and calmly. I cared for a kitten with asthma, monitoring symptoms closely and ensuring medication was given on schedule. I am patient and gentle, helping pets stay comfortable and stress-free during treatment. As a teacher, I have summers off and a very flexible schedule during that time. During the school year, I’m available in the evenings and on weekends for pet sitting and drop-ins. I keep a safe, calm home for pets—run by two cats and one dog who think they’re in charge. I understand pet dynamics and make sure every animal feels comfortable and cared for.
