House Sitting in Waterloo

About: Caring for animals has also been a significant part of my life. I have cared for my family's pets since I was a little girl, feeding, watering, giving them treats, playing with them, and cleaning up after dogs and cats. For at least three years, I helped my neighbor’s dogs by letting them out, feeding and watering them, practicing their tricks during treat time, and caring for their puppy. I love getting the opportunity to help with and spend time with animals! I am currently a college student and am not available until after 4pm on Thursdays. I am free for walks, sitting, and check-ins after 4pm on thursdays, and anytime in the day every other day of the week, unless otherwise stated in my calendar. For house/pet sitting, I am able to do so any day of the week! My biggest priority is to care for the pets however the owner wants me to. I let them out to potty, give them food, water, and treats, play with them, lay with them when they are feeling snuggly, and go for a walk with dogs. I always respect the pets and their home.

“Lauren stayed with my cat and dog for two weeks and they loved her! Jasper looked for her in the house after she left- he misses her! They stayed busy and active and I received a lot of pictures and updates. Lauren is incredibly thoughtful and conscientious. Knowing she was here with the babes gave me such peace of mind on my trip. She is amazing!”

About: I am an animal lover, I only have 2 pets in my home right now, but I would have a cat rescue if I was able. Experience with all ages of pets. My schedule is flexible as I work from home. I prefer to walk in the morning or evening, to avoid heat stress, but I am able to work around your schedule I have an 8yr old St. Benard who is a gental giant and a 8ish year old cat that's my baby. A fenced large yard.

“Chris meet and exceeded my expectations. He took great care of my two girls and I could tell they were comforted by his presence when I received my photos. I was able to fully relax on my vacation and not worry about my puppers. I have experience with quite a few boarding and pet sitters and Chris has been the best. House was also well cared for and as clean as when I left it. Very respectful and reliable sitter.”

“Rachel is fantastic! She responded quickly from my first inquiry. We have two large and overly friendly spoiled rotten labs. She is experienced with large dogs and is able to walk them with ease! She gives them lots of attention. One of our dogs is needy and a bit anxious and he is very comfortable with her. She sends updates and pics to relieve my anxiety too! Highly recommend Rachel!!!”

Cathy H.

“Salena was great! She was able to arrive in the early morning for Archie since we had to catch a flight; she kept us updated with pictures throughout her stay. We felt very comfortable having her in our house taking care of our boy. I’d recommend Salena to anyone feeling anxious about leaving their pet for the first time!”

Summyr M.

“Allison was a hit right away with Hunter during our meet and greet! And when we returned from our weekend away he was obviously very content while we were away! Allison was very easy to communicate with and attentive to specific instructions for Hunter, as well. We’d have no concerns having her take care of Hunter again, and we are confident he would be only too excited to see her!”

“I was in Eugene for a concert and my dog couldn't be left unattended in the hotel so i turned to rover. Cookie can be a little wary of strangers but she warmed up quickly and i left her without worry. Makenna arrived early and sent me photos of my dog at ease. When I got back they were snuggled up and I could tell that cookie was well tended to. I was a professional pet sitter for 14 years and Makenna did everything right, I definitely recommend her and if I'm ever in a similar situation in Eugene she'll be the first person I call.”

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I am highly knowledgeable about dog care, behavior, and overall well-being. I have experience helping whelp puppies and have cared for and trained dogs throughout every stage of life, from puppies to seniors. I currently have a senior dog myself, giving me firsthand experience with the special attention older pets need. In addition to dogs, I have farm experience caring for horses, pigs, chickens, and other animals. I treat every pet with patience, compassion, and the same love and attention I give my own animals. Let’s plan a day for me to come do a meet and greet :) I currently work full time, but I am transitioning to part-time in the near future to dedicate even more time to pet care. Until then, I am available on weekends and am committed to providing dependable, attentive care to every pet I look after. As my schedule becomes more flexible, I look forward to expanding my availability and spending even more time doing what I love most—caring for animals. Pet care is a true passion of mine, and I am dedicated to making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I strive to provide a calm, loving, and stress-free environment, caring for pets in the comfort of their own home. I understand that many pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, and I am committed to maintaining their routines and giving them the individualized attention they deserve. With experience caring for animals of all ages, I am attentive, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Building trust with both pets and their owners is incredibly important to me, and I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and compassionate.

“Megan sat for our dog for 2 weeks and she kept us up to date and how our dog was doing. She will be our sitter from now on. She’s one of the best that we had.”

About: Hi! I’m Jaedyn, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for all kinds of pets. Growing up, my family fostered over 10 dogs over the years, which gave me experience with different breeds, temperaments, and care needs from an early age. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, frogs, and other small animals throughout my life. One of my biggest passions was raising, breeding, and showing rabbits through 4-H, where I learned the importance of consistent care, attention to health, and understanding animal behavior. I currently volunteer part-time in a psychology research lab, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible. I currently volunteer part-time in a psychology research lab, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible routine, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of companionship. I aim to provide pets with consistency and attention so they can stay comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before care begins. Whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, or behavioral quirks, I believe clear communication helps create the best experience for everyone. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for a beloved pet. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. Having cared for animals my entire life—from foster dogs to rabbits, cats, and small pets—I’m comfortable adapting to a wide variety of temperaments and care needs. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where your pet can feel secure and loved.

“Mackenzy took excellent care of our two dogs, one whom required insulin shots. Would definitely recommend and use again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small for 8 years. I have some experience training puppies and adult dogs as well. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, over all take great care of their furry friends for weeks before. I have always had a love for furbabies, I always volunteered at the rescue shelters as much as I could. Im currently enrolled in college, however after class hours and in between I spend all my time taking care of my fur babies at home. I am not currently working which gives me plenty of time to play and care for your loved pups/kitties. I have a big yard and 2 playful pups to keep your furry friends company. I have a couple crates so that if needed they can have down time away from each other to ensure I can prioritize the care given to your loved ones.
