Pet Boarding Veneta

About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs. Anyone that knows me, knows that I am a dog-lover through and through! Since early middle school, my family and I have rescued and loved 4 amazing dogs. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I've cared for dogs of family, friends, and co-workers in their homes. As I write this, I'm watching two great pups! I am responsible, caring, and have experience with a variety of different breeds. From bigger dogs like Great Danes, Pitbulls, Bulldogs, and Boxers to smaller pups like terriers, Chihuahuas, and all kinds on little poodle mixes. I am happy to walk, feed, snuggle, play or just spend time with your fur babies! I'm available for boarding on weekends. I work hybrid and can occasionally accommodate longer stays depending on when I work from home. I spend a lot of time at home and would be able to spend a lot time with your pet. I live in an apartment, so frequent potty breaks and walks outside would be given. I would prefer to crate your dog while i'm out of the apartment. I'm not usually away for more than a couple of hours.

“Rosie was well taken care of and Nova, Jonathan’s dog, was a great friend for her to hang out with. We were kept well informed and received pictures of Rosie throughout her stay. We will definitely use Jonathan again if we come back to Eugene and need a dog sitter!”

About: I’ve had pets all my life! I’m now in a position to be able to take care of yours, and I will do that as if they were my own. Love, sweetness and lots of attention. I’m currently doing my own thing and being with pets is the best part. Taking care of your fur baby would be a big privilege. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect. Your pet would be in loving hands and treated the way you would want!

“My dog is the anxious type but was very content here. She loved being around kids and getting outside. Cecilia was willing to be flexible with pick up and drop off and was easy to get in contact with.”

“We loved having Xander stay with Brittany! He was SO loved, we received pictures and videos daily, and drop-off and pick-up were a breeze. He came home happy and so tired from all the playing with new friends, and we will hope to have Xander return any time we're traveling through Eugene!”

“My pup was well taken care of and I was given daily updates. I will use these guys again. My pup had stitches and meds. Josh did not hesitate, re: ability or willingness to care for her. Bonus points... Maybe it was operator error as I am a newbie to rover. However, I thought I had secured some place for my dog to stay for the week while I traveled out of state. I did not hear back from that particular person. So the night before I had to leave, at about 10pm, in a panic, I got back onto rover.com and these folks saved the day!”

“Mari and Steve were super communicative and sent us pictures regularly. They kept our dog busy and he was super happy and relaxed when we picked him up.”

“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.”

“Valerie took such great care of my two kitty boys! She was truly amazing with them and also with me - sending photos frequently along with updates. She answered my questions and special requests to make sure Izzy was peeing first day. I was able to go visit them as well. Her home is clean and neat. When we arrived to her special room for kitties for drop-off day, it was so welcoming and all set up for two cats. I felt so welcomed. I will have to replicate some of the beds and carpet she has for them, they loved them so much. There is a big, secure catio with kitty door for those cats with indoor-outdoor preferences; it has a whole wooden structure in it for them to climb or be up high or down on the ground. Valerie gave my boys lots of loves and playtime/laptime. Milo "helped" her with paperwork (ahem). She is calm and warm and loving. When I visited, they were so calm. Izzy was hesitant at first, hiding under the bed, but by day 2 he was ready to get rubs and playtime. She even plays soothing kitty t.v./music for them. I 100% recommend Valerie and her set-up. She also invited me for a meet and greet before booking. I am so grateful for Valerie taking care of my cats while I traveled and looked for a rental.”

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.

“Julie took wonderful care of Phantom and made sure he felt comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated the regular updates and pictures, it gave me peace of mind knowing Phantom was happy and well looked after. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, caring place for their pup!”

“Jen and Josh are definitely dog lovers. It was so hard to leave my 4 month old puppy. I think I have separation anxiety. They sent me videos, photos, and texted updates to relieve my worries. They assured me Jesse was playing, having a good time, and sleeping in her crate. What a relief. I will definitely bring my fur baby there again. Thank you Jen and Josh”

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.

“Highly recommend Corynne and Matthew! They watched our 2 dogs while we were out of the country for 11 days. They did great with both of them, which are completely different in their needs: one a very energetic 2 year old heeler mix and the other a 16 year old lab mix. They administered meds for our senior also. Our dogs had such a great time, they didn’t want to leave. Will be booking again - thanks!”

“Caitlin was easy to communicate with, and her house is perfect for pet sitting, replete with a grassy backyard and dog door. Comfy, clean, welcoming environment. You can tell she really cares for the pets in her charge. Future repeat customer!”

Jack R.

“My dog Pete was happy from the moment he walked into Wilna’s dog-friendly house. While I was away I got pictures of Pete going on walks and at the dog park, which made me feel good about boarding him. I will definitely board Pete with Wilna again.”

Billie B.

“Derrick took amazing care of my dog while I was away on a trip! He sent lots of pictures and it was clear in all of them that my dog was having a great time. She came back relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Derrick and will definitely board my dog with him again!”

Zoe L.

“Ruthie was amazing, communicative, sent awesome pictures the whole time, and my dogs loved it. Ruthie even created a little doggie bag to go with a report card review of how great the dogs were. This is a really sweet touch and next time we are in Eugene we will definitely seek out Ruthie and Jolly Olly again - thanks again for everything.”

Alicia H.

“Seemed to be very caring with our dog and stayed in touch with us. Baxter came home and seemed happy and ready to crawl into his favorite space and take a long nap.”

Nick M.

“Jessi was great! She took amazing care of our big creature and was great communicating and keeping me up to date on how he was doing! Definitely recommend her!”
