“Breezey provided daily updates to us while we were out of state. When our spare key to our home didn't work, she reached out for help. Fortunately, she was then able to enter our home and care for our cat. I highly recommend Breezey.”

About: Hiya! I’m the quiet attentive home you’ve been searching for—whether for a puppy, a senior dog who requires medications, or a fearful pup who needs peace, or reassurance during the workday. I’m home full-time and have been a certified veterinary technician since 2009, with 20 years of experience in veterinary medicine, behavior, and humane reward based training. I also hold a certification as a Fear Free Practitioner. I’d love to welcome your dog into my home or visit yours and provide whatever they need while you’re away—extra puppy potty breaks, medication administration and monitoring, or simply a calm, loving environment where they’re treated like my own. I keep my home peaceful and serene, so I only host one dog at a time to ensure individualized care and attention. The needs of those under my care are prioritized. I will do my best to accommodate your pets schedules needs. Just let me know how to help! The pets that I keep in my home are prioritized, while your baby is under my care they are treated like my own! Bring whatever makes them feel more cozy

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since elementary school. Training horses and dogs has been my passion. Understanding dogs instincts and pack language helps me better serve their unique needs and personalities. My 35 years of animal care encompasses dog sitting, training, flying cross country on cabin with pup, breeding, and rearing physically and emotionally solid pups. I’ve ventured with my 4-legged buddies on hikes, walks, beach trips, long car drives, hotel stays, retirement homes, schools, river floats, horse rides, ranch work, and river walks. Living in the beautiful PNW there’s always fun to have with our pooches! I’m a work at home mom with four children and a beautiful tribe of animal, loving people. Kids and animals have routines to thrive. There’s always someone home to be with the dogs so no fur babe left behind on our watch. We go places the dogs can ride with us. Exploring the logging roads and nature walks are everyone’s favorite. Fenced yard and doggo doors allow for in and out as they please while at home. Routine starts with breakfast. Then it’s playtime with the kids while farm chores take place. If your dog eats 3x a day we’ll do lunch, more playtime, rest time since this is equally as important. Mental stimulation to stay sharp means using snuffle rugs, treat dispensers, hand feeding meals while reinforcing manners and obedience. My kids have a schedule and boundaries as do the animals giving everyone peace of mind.

“Angel was a perfect pet walker! Great communication too. I was traveling to Lincoln City from California with my 6 month old puppy. Since the hotel didn't allow the pups to be left in the room at all, it was great to have someone lined up during my vacation to care for her while I visited places that didn't allow dogs (Indoor seating restaurants and the casino). I'll will use her service again next time I'm in town.”

“Kris was very communicative and flexible. I very much appreciate his willingness to come out to our small town to take care of our cats in the unpredictable winter!”

About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.

About: I've been around all animals almost all of my life. They bring me so much love & I love giving it in return. I've also had the honor of working for a veterinarian for 10 years. I am currently available all times of day & all days of the week. My schedule is wide open & I look for the opportunity. I respect all manner of pet care, depending on the owners. We currently have 1 dog who gets along with animals. Our yard is fenced.

“Thank you so much for dropping in to check on our two kitties. We really really appreciate that you were able to visit around Mollee's bedtime and to see her in the photos all relaxed in her usual places. Della jumped down from the cat tree in the office when we got home, she was napping up top. Hopefully, as she gets to know you, she will come out and play with you!”

About: Hello! My name is Allison, and I have decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, puppies, birds, hamsters, and farm animals. I grew up in a family that owned multiple pet stores, which gave me hands-on experience with animal care from a young age. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet will be in safe, loving hands with me and will get plenty of attention, care, and cuddles! 🤎 I’m currently available full-time, including weekdays and weekends 😊 I’m home most of the day, so pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and time to play or relax. I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine, but otherwise they’re welcome to roam the house and enjoy time in the backyard. I’m flexible and always try to follow each pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home! 🐾 I have a fully fenced in large backyard that your pet can explore! My house has plenty of space for your pet to stretch out and make themselves feel at home. I also live near a large dog park!

“Jennifer has been a stalwart drop-in sitter for our dog Guinness for half a year now. She has put up with schedule changes, a sick puppy, and miscommunication on our end with absolutely no guff. Truly the best possible sitter we could have ever wished for. Jennifer is the best. Can't recommend enough.”

About: I’ve begged my parents for a pet since I can remember. Since I never got one I love to help anyone out with theirs when I can. From puppies to elderly dogs I love them all. I’m trying to transition from my current job, but I can work work around my schedule. Size and age of dog don’t matter to me I have experience with almost every kind of dog. I always watch my sisters golden doodles when she needs me to, so playing for a long time and going on lengthy walks to help tire your doggie out is no problem. I can easily crate your dog when and if needed. Adhering to your pets daily routine is absolutely no problem with me.

About: I've grown up with dogs (and chickens, hamsters and cats!!) my whole life and can't imagine my life without my dog Cafe. Pet sitting was my first real job when I was in middle school. I would take care of my family and friends pets, staying at their house and giving their animals all the attention they deserved! I have lots of experience with walking, feeding and loving animals and have full confidence with my ability to keep your fluffy one safe and happy. I’m super responsible and will make sure to send daily updates and photos of your fluffy one! I’m very active and love getting outside and going for walks (10x more fun with a dog by my side). I have a golden retriever back in my hometown that my whole heart belongs to. I make sure she gets two walks a day and all the love possible. I'm a senior nursing student at the University of Portland and wanting to give some love to other dogs and cats! My college schedule is very flexible and I have time in the mornings and afternoon/evenings, during the week and weekends for dog walking and pet sitting. I will make sure that all backyard gates are always shut before letting your dog outside and make sure to ask questions about your dog's comfortability with other dogs and children so I can be aware when on walks.

About: Having grown up with both a Chihuahua and Australian Cattle Dogs, I am well-versed in dogs that need high-energy play time versus those that just need to get their zoomies out! I have taken care of senior dogs, including a miniature poodle and a long-haired Chihuahua. I am an animal lover who has to pet any dog or cat I see and have a genuine interest in caring for and loving your special furry friend 🐾 I am currently in-between jobs as I am studying for my LSAT for law school so my schedule is very flexible right now! I have a car and am able to drive so that is not a problem. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very aware that I am a guest in the home and act accordingly. These days, privacy is important and I pride myself on protecting that for the client in addition to caring for the pet(s). When interacting with pet(s), I like to go at their pace in their home, respecting their boundaries, and gaining their trust. I am able to handle shy pets and wait for them to warm up as well as handle the rambunctious love bugs that want to snuggle!

About: Besides taking care of my own pets since I was a kid, I have over three years professional experience providing your four-legged family with quality care. From pups and kittens to older animals, I am skilled at maintaining a seemless regimen of care so your time away can be as worry free as possible. Right now, looking after your pets is my #1 priority. I'm free weeknights, weekdays and weekends - expect consistent communication, lots of photos, and plenty of love! I specialize in maintaining consistent care, especially for older animals. Rest assured your pets will enjoy a seemless transition while you're away. I'll preserve whatever routines you have established so it'll be like you never left (not that anyone could replace you)!

About: I have a great passion for animals. I have grown up around cats, dogs, horses, and cows. I am well-trained in taking exceptional care of animals and maintaining cleanliness as we go about our day! I would love to meet your fur babies❤️ Pet care is a daily occurrence for me. I am careful to make sure my own pets are well-fed, well exercised, and getting plenty of love! I'm happy to abide by any rules the owner gives me in their home or in my home. My apartment is too small to care for large dogs as I also have two cats; my only request is that is acommidable!

About: I have deep care for the animals we get to live with and I take this joyous role very seriously. I’ve been a dog mom myself and it would always bring me some anxiety to leave him with a new sitter. I’m here to answer any questions and meet your pup(s) to make sure that everyone feels comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies learning the ropes, to senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m comfortable with specific care needs such as administering medications, following special feeding routines, and giving extra attention to pets with health concerns. I’m self-employed and split my time between working from home and from my office. My schedule is flexible most days, which means I can usually adjust my day to fit your dog’s needs — whether that’s morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening playtime. I make sure pets aren’t left waiting too long and always work around their normal routines so they stay comfortable and happy. I take care of pets right in their own homes, where everything smells familiar and feels safe. I’ve found that staying in their own space helps them relax so much more while you’re away. I really try to keep things feeling “normal” for them — same routines, same little habits, same comforts. I’ll follow your instructions closely so your pet’s day feels as similar as possible to having you home. I pay attention when we go on walks — checking leashes, making sure doors and gates are secure, and watching for anything that might make your pup uncomfortable. I’m more than happy to slow down if your pet needs a little extra care. Whether that’s meds, quiet time, or lots of cuddles, I meet them where they are and give them plenty of patience and love. I treat your home with care and respect, and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own. I want you to be able to relax, knowing they’re safe, comfortable, and so well loved while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life—caring for them isn’t just second nature, it’s something I truly love. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I’ve spent years helping out neighbors by watching their pets while they were away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply being a calm and comforting presence, I bring attentiveness and compassion to every pet I care for. Recently, my husband and I welcomed a rescue dog, Grim, into our family through Oregon Dog Rescue. He is the goofiest, sweetest boy and has been an incredible addition to our home. Grim gets along exceptionally well with other dogs and people, and we have never once had an incident with him. He is well-behaved, trained, and truly enjoys the company of other pets. Having a dog who is so gentle, social, and adaptable allows me to confidently provide a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for any pets in my care. What sets me apart is my deep emotional connection to animals, my reliability, and my ability to pick up on each pet’s unique needs. I don’t just watch your pet—I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I am currently going to school full time at WSU completely online. Other than that, I am not working right now so this gives me the opportunity to have a lot of free time! I can complete my school work from anywhere with my laptop. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and creating a safe, loving space for them is something I take seriously. I live on 10 acres of private property, giving your dog plenty of room to explore in a peaceful, secure environment. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I care for each dog as if they were my own—offering calm companionship, routine, and individualized attention. I can easily accommodate crate-trained pups or provide a cozy space for rest, and I always follow your preferences to ensure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

About: With my veterinary field experience, I’ve cared for hospitalized animals by supporting their medical needs and giving them the love, patience, and comfort they deserve. I like to keep my Golden Retriever, Canela, on a set schedule. I provide consistent care with scheduled feedings, morning walks, and enrichment activities to keep her healthy, stimulated, and well-cared for. As a dedicated dog sitter, I ensure pet owners provide a detailed list of instructions so I can fully meet their expectations and provide the best care for their dogs while they’re away. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications on time, and maintain any specific routines to keep each dog happy, healthy, and comfortable. I create a welcoming environment where dogs feel safe, loved, and at home—even on the furniture if that’s part of their routine! I love bonding with dogs through walks, trips to the park, playtime, and quiet moments together, like reading while they relax nearby. I also provide brain stimulation through interactive toys, training games, and enrichment activities to keep them mentally engaged. My goal is to ensure every dog feels loved, cared for, and has fun while their owners are away, giving both the pets and their owners peace of mind.
