Pet Sitting Vaughn

About: Hello! I'm Lauren! I'm laid back but responsible, and I hope to be the kind of sitter that makes your pets happy and you relaxed while you are gone. I've been known to cut short a vacation because I missed my pets too much, so I know how important it is to provide responsible, communicative care. I have worked in vet clinics for about 15 years- from kennel assistant to finally, in 2025, as a Certified Veterinary Technician. I have worked with all different breeds and temperaments of dogs. I have experience giving medication, injections, and re-enforcing correct behavior. Also, I have spent a lot of time giving patient, kind TLC. I don't mind taking a little time with a scared doggie, or working on scaling back a very enthusiastic one. I am a Texas transplant and have been in Veneta for about the past year. It's been an awesome year of exploring the Pacific Northwest with my little doggie by my side, when he feels like it. :) My goal is to make both you and your dog look forward to seeing me, and you to be confident that your dog is in good hands. I enjoy enriching the life of any dog around me. I am currently working on a relief basis, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I do ask for some advance notice for bookings because I may have a trip or hike planned. Quality over quantity will always guide the business I accept, since I would never feel comfortable giving less than the best care. Housesitting: Your pup will get at least 2 walks a day and multiple potty breaks. I do not typically stay overnight/ full time but this may be discussed in certain situations. Small house sitting tasks like watering plants, collecting the mail, etc should be no problem to include.

“This was our first booking with Rover and Sarah. She kept us updated on our kitties and sent tons of pics. Sarah is very personable and professional. If she wasn’t sure of something she didn’t hesitate to ask (we told her to reach out anytime with questions). Our getaway turned into a great trip knowing our animals were being taken care of. Sarah truly put my mind at ease and we are forever grateful.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 30 years, and caring for them has become my lifelong passion. For the past five years, I’ve run my own professional pet-care business, building long-term relationships with clients who value trust, reliability, and genuine love for their pets. At Gentle Paws Home Care, I provide a calm, nurturing environment where dogs can feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, they’ll enjoy gentle routines, quiet walks, soft places to rest, and plenty of affection. For dogs who need a little more activity, I also offer my signature adventure walks—hour-and-a-half off-leash excursions that let your pup explore, play, and connect with nature in a balanced, mindful way. My references reflect the consistency, compassion, and professionalism I bring to every animal I care for. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, I’ve learned how to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. To me, dogs aren’t just pets — they’re people with their own unique personalities, and I take pride in giving them the care and attention they deserve. I run volunteer groups at Zumwalt park and take a lot of pride in our doggy community there. In my home, pets are truly part of the family. I’m with them the entire time, so they’re never left feeling lonely. I have plenty of cozy dog beds throughout the house, and if your pup prefers, they’re always welcome to snuggle up in my bed at night. We enjoy two large walks a day (and often a third smaller evening stroll), along with snacks, games, and fun activities to keep them happy and engaged. When I provide care in a client’s home, I do my best to stick closely to the routine and schedule you’ve set. I know how important consistency is, so I keep things as normal and comfortable as possible while making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way.

About: CPR and first aid certified. Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young. She gets along with cats really well and is around farm animals frequently. Working 40 hours a week while managing pet care is essential, I am able to work around my schedule as fit for the animal's needs. Please inform me if any needs are requested to make sure everything, like fresh water, is taken care of. I offer care at the clients home, which I have experience in. I am usually in the same room as my pets, so I will often be in the same area with your pet while they are under supervision. Please inform me at least a day in advance for booking.

“the daily updates and pics were great. she did a fantastic job with my akita. thanks again, jenna!”

About: Experienced owner, foster, and sitter for dogs of all ages and needs. Ability to administer medication, go for walks and provide plenty of stimulation/play time. I am a self employed wedding photographer, with a very open weekday schedule. Most of my work days are on one weekend day a week, with a lot of flexible availability. I care for all pets with the love and care I give to my own. Our animals deserve intentional and safe interactions, exercise, and routine.

About: I have experience with all shapes and sizes, from playful pups to seniors with higher needs. I’ll always make sure every dog receives all the puppy love they deserve, whether that’s trail-running, daily walks, or a little extra playtime! With me being a student at OSU-Cascades, I have more free time than most, ensuring your pup gets all the care while you’re away 😊 Im a full-time Environmental Science student at OSU-Cascades with plenty of gaps to fill my schedule. This means flexible work and lots of available hours! I’m free pretty much any time, any day :) While my current living space is not suited for dogs, I will always acknowledge that your house is YOUR space and will do my absolute best to keep it better than how I found it. I have dog-sat throughout many places in Central Oregon and should you need a reference, I got you covered. I’m here for the pup and the pup only 😊

“Madison is a reliable, flexible, dedicated and communicative pet sitter who obviously loves animals. She follows directions, frequently checks in with pictures and updates and just makes you feel like your pet is in great hands. I was really lucky to come across Madison's profile and would highly recommend her to anyone who shares my anxiety about leaving others to watch our furry friends. She's also just a really sweet person and a joy to work with.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 13 years old. Neighbors and friends trusted me to walk, play, and love on their pets while they were away. I have experience with puppies and kittens all the way to senior cats and dogs. I also have experience giving medication to dogs and cats. I work part time so I'm looking for something fulfilling and fun to fill the down time I do have! It is a true joy to be able to spend my day caring for other people's fur-babies. I can provide food and fresh water according to your exact schedule and needs. I can walk your dog or take them outside for potty breaks or just let out some energy outside. I can administer prescribed medication or treatments and log each dose. I can provide companionship and playtime and monitor their behavior, appetite, and mood to ensure your fur baby is feeling their best.

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.

About: I’ve had dogs in the past; loved them and walked them every day. I’ve trained puppies before on how to walk on a lease and more. I’ll be able to give them lots of attention in the morning and afternoons/evenings. I work a flex schedule, but the flexibility allows me to make my own schedule. On the weekends I’ll be with your pet full time. I have a fenced front and back yard. I will walk them and feed them on their schedule. I’ll probably love them too much to and take too many pictures.

About: I have experience with all sorts of animals. I have worked with dogs and cats and most other household pets including snakes and birds. I have also worked with horses and most livestock farm animals. I make a daily roster of animals to care for and schedule my time accordingly. I care for my animals first always and help my community with animal care needs. I have a large fenced yard with room to run. I have 2 female dogs that are well trained and managed. The smaller mutt is elderly (11) and has a room of her own where she will put herself as needed. My big girl Sally, the Bernese is friendly to all animals large or small and really the very best calm neutral dog I have ever known.

About: I've cared for senior dogs as well as puppies. All are personal animals, but, I believe that's an advantage. Being familiar with animals on a personal level has made me more empathetic and gained the ability to really connect with animal's. Wonderfully! I can care for a pet multiple times a week. My current schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work with you on hours! I would prefer to care for animals in their own environment. I understand some pets feel more secure in a familiar environment. I want to provide the most enjoyable experience for the owner as well as the pet.

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: I am an avid lover of animals and take my treatment of them to heart. I can keep your pup or kitty very happy and very healthy. My last old guy was a diabetic with a thyroid condition for the last 8 years of his life (2 insulin shots a day. 2 thyroid pills a day.) I’m very comfortable with giving medicine or shots to any animal. That includes emergency situations or routine management for the fur babies. My schedule is very flexible right now. I’m available most every day except for special occasions. I have a routine cancellation policy, but I’m pretty chill. I have a big fenced yard with beautiful grass and lots of things to smell. My house is single story with lots of open space for zoomies.

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’ve had animals of all kinds in my family since I was born. I’ve taken care of animals and helped watch and care for loved ones pets over the years. I’m currently a SAHM and looking for extra ways of generating income while doing things I love and things that are fulfilling! Very flexible and eager to help. Ready to help where is needed. I have many good references. I am trustworthy, kind, careful, communicative, and an all around animal lover! I can’t wait to meet yours.

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.
