Pet Boarding Veneta

“I recently boarded my two small dogs with Ying for a long weekend. From the many pictures and videos sent to me from Ying, I could see that my dogs were well taken care of and they seemed happy. I would certainly use YING’s boarding services again.”

“Our dogs love, Tori! Her fenced back yard is like a giant playground for our Lab (who loves Tori’s sweet girl, Mona!) and is easy for our older dog to get around in, as well. They were so excited when we pulled in for our second visit that I couldn’t get the leash off our dog before she and Mona were off and playing! We’re looking forward to the next over night visit while we’re on vacation. Such peace of mind to know they’re in a safe and loving environment while we’re away! Thank you, Tori!!”

“Cecelia watched our dog Hobbes, and it seems he enjoyed his stay! She sent pictures of him to update us, and he had the run of her back yard. Would definitely recommend Cecelia!”

“Erin did an exceptional job of communicating with me about how Mitzi was doing during their first time together. Without my asking- Erin sent photos of Mitzi with a brief comment. I will definitely use Erin again if the need arises.”

“Pickle (the dog) and Rhubarb (the cat) seemed to really enjoy their stay. I think Pickle really enjoyed having more playmates, and Rhubarb discovered the wonder of a catio. Joshua was communicative, we got some nice updates and some photos, and the boys are readjusting to home life well. I really appreciated that Joshua suggested a half-day test-run to make sure that Pickle (who is a fairly small dog) wouldn't find his larger ones intimidating or stressful, and that Rhubarb would be okay with being in a new place like that in general. I did know Pickle seemed to loved all dogs he met regardless of size, and that Rhubarb was unusually adaptable for a cat, but even so I was a lot more comfortable leaving them for multiple days already knowing they'd already taken being there well! Next time we need to be away from them, we're likely to make the same choice.”

“Our 2 girls were very well taken care of for the 4 days they were at Josh & Jennifer’s. We received pictures & videos of them having a grand time. We missed them so much, but it helped knowing they were treated so great!”

Don And Florence H.

“Mari and her family took such great care of our 11yr old lab. Loved all the photo updates, flexibility and communication during the stay - but was especially so impressed the way they made Pepper feel right at home and a part of their family. I could tell he loved his stay and we're excited to have a great place for Pepper to stay when we travel.”

“Valerie is great and her boarding setup is great. No complaints and I feel very lucky to have found her. Our dog came home happy and healthy after five days of fun and games.”

Nicolas G.

“Jonathan took great care of our dog while we went away for 4 weeks. We received many pictures and messages. Jonathan is very reliable and dependable. He was very patient and kind with our dog. I recommend Jonathan for boarding and daycare.”

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: 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.

“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.”

“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.

“It went great. He sent plenty of pictures and my dog diddnt seem to stressed when we picked him up! I would book again.”

Samuel H.

“Shay was great to work with! Dennis had a great weekend and I got regular updates and pictures on how he was doing! Would definitely use her again in the future. Thanks for taking such great care of our Dennis:)”

Debby B.

“Jessi was awesome. She kept me updated the entire time and made sure my dog was comfortable and exercised. Would very highly recommend using her!”

Brian C.

“Momo had great time staying at Alex's, made friends and playing with her friendly dogs while I was gone. Originally I chose Alex this time was because her dogs and giant yard that I know Momo really loves. Her picking up and dropping off Momo was a surprise I really appreciated. On top of her kind and friendly like other dog sitters on Rover, I would also say she is professional, because she does this full time, I bet Momo got a lot more attention with Alex than at home. I highly recommend Alex to anyone who is occasionally not available for their dogs.”

“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”

Tammy S.

“Landen was great ! Georgie would love to stay with her again.”

Jenni Kay M.

“Julie provided a perfect place for Harriet to stay during a weekend visit to Eugene. Great updates from Julie throughout the visit. The weekend was also very hot, but Julie was prepared keeping the AC on in the room for the pups and plenty of outside water activities for Harriet who loves water. Harriet felt very at home at Julie's!”
