“Justine has been doing a fantastic job with my dog, Daphne. I can tell by the pictures and short interactions I've seen with them that she and Daphne built a bond very quickly which is a testament to Justine's care and experience. I look forward to our continued bookings!”

About: I have always had an affinity for animals, and have always had them in my life. My first dog was a keeshound mix named Katrinka, since then I have had a wide variety of animal friends, from ferrets to horses. As an adult I worked as a vet tech and organic dog treat baker These days I am a working artist and have fewer animals, in the interest of being able to travel and create. Pet sitting allows me to enjoy the company of a wide variety of animals, without the long term commitment. In addition to pet sitting in your home, I am available for daily drop-in visits to get your pup out for a run, change litter boxes + water, or just give them some company while you are at work. I am currently available for pet sitting in your home, as well as dog walking, chicken tending, and related animal services. As your surrogate I'll maintain your pets's routine, in the comfort of their home, with compassion & respect. I am a working artist, which affords me much flexibility in my schedule. Whether your pet needs a quick mid-day check-in, or a comforting presence 24/7, I enjoy helping support people give their animals their best lives. Thank you for taking the time and attention to read about my services before you propose a booking with me. I bring over a decade of diverse experience working with and caring for animals; I offer a patient, compassionate, attentive care to your animals and your home. When housesitting, I seek to create a seamless experience in caring for your pet by maintaining their routine, and having fun with them while doing it. I seek to go “above and beyond” in my services: watering houseplants, and gently caring for your home as if it’s my own sacred space. Your home will be clean & welcoming for your return, and your pets will be content and well cared for. I greatly appreciate details, as they are am essential piece of giving them the specific and individualized care for that they & you deserve. I am a fiber artist, which affords me the flexibility to maintain a colorful life of caring for animals as needed for you. I am happy to create space so our schedules align. With the focus being on your animals calm, healthy, peaceful & fun experience: I care for your pets in their 'comfort zone (your home), where they surrounded by familiar spaces, scents of you around & the routine that works best for them. Overnight at your home: I create a seamless experience in caring for your pet’s routine needs, helping them get exercise and have fun with them while doing it. cleaning up after myself and your animals and gently caring for your home as, if it’s my own sacred space. Your home will be very clean & welcoming for your arrival.

About: I have personally cared for dogs and cats for more than 20 years and have extensive pet-sitting experience. One of my long-term clients has trusted me with her pets for over 14 years. Throughout that time, I have cared for cats with a variety of medical needs, including administering oral medications and injections. I am comfortable providing specialized care and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail when caring for pets with health concerns. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a midday check-in, medication administration, a walk, or extra attention, I can often adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I am committed to providing dependable care and clear communication while your pets are in my care. Creating a safe and trusting environment is one of my top priorities. I provide pet care exclusively in your home, where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. Since I have a full household of my own with four cats, two pet rats, and a dog, I do not offer boarding in my home.

About: I’ve had pets all my life and have worked as a nutritionist at a holistic pet store for close to 4 years. I love animals and I love interacting with them! I currently work a part time job that only gives me 20-25 hours a week. Other than that I am completely available, as long as it fits into my current schedule. I cannot take animals into my own apartment, but I am more than happy to care for animals in their own home. I am well experienced in keeping a close eye on animals and love communicating with owners about their pets wellbeing.

About: Hello I’m Griffin, I moved to Eugene last September to accept a job with a local nonprofit. I absolutely love dogs, to the point where my entire social media algorithm just presents me with puppy videos (all dogs are puppies to me.) I grew up with dogs, specifically Labradors, Cairn terriers and a Yorkie. When I was in Peace Corps in Ukraine, I had adopted a street dog and named him Dantinos. Sadly due to pandemic I was unable to bring my buddy back. There’s a big dog shaped hole in my heart. So, I decided to give this a try. My nonprofit job, while rewarding and interesting, isn’t cutting it for the cost of living today. I work full time but have remote work flexibility and live within a few minutes walking distance from my place of work- so whether it’s boarding or drop-ins, or walks, there’s a great opportunity to make it work. I would love to meet and pet and give your puppy some scratches if you’ll have me. I’ve got 35 years experience because I’ve grown with dogs all my life; and while I am not able to care for my own right now, taking a stroll with your puppy might be a win win win situation. I work full time, but have remote work flexibility and given a day or two in advance could likely block off some time to visit or walk a pet. Especially after lunch, when scheduled meetings are less frequent. When it comes to boarding- my work is literally a 5-8 min walk from my apartment- so even if I need to be in the office, coming back for potty breaks are not a problem. Fridays are generally half days, giving a little more flexibility I care for dogs by giving them love and affection when they want it. I’ve got a weakness for giving a dog treats with those pleading eyes, but I promise that I would never feed another persons dog anything not allowed, and certainly know to avoid over feeding. Eugene is a beautiful place and I think it would be a pleasure to take a stroll with your dog.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. As a Greenhill dog walker for 3 years, I have experience with all varieties of dog's energy levels and leash skills. I have been a foster to puppies and socially awkward dogs, so I am fine with dogs still learning manners. I have a calming presence that puts shy dogs at ease. I have fostered many puppies and can help teach them the basics. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule so I have lots of availability to come play with your pups and provide enrichment throughout the day. If you pick me to take care of your fur babies, I will follow all instructions you provide and will make sure to provide them any enrichment they need. I have experience with dogs that love to shred, dogs that want to play 700 rounds of fetch, or maybe they just want to relax with a chew while supervised.

“Kristine is a kind, knowledgeable, caring dog person who communicates well and appropriately. I highly recommend her and will DEFINITELY use her again!”

“We highly recommend Alix!”

I’m always happy to accommodate special requests and will always keep you updated! Please reach out — I’d love to meet you and your fur baby! I am currently completing my veterinary technician course online so my schedule is very flexible for the summer! I am a good last minute option if needed! I treat every pet like they are my own! I respect clients spaces and pets spaces. You will always come home to the same way you left it! When hosting in my home- - since I do not have a yard, it’s very important to me that my own dog and any dog staying with me gets the appropriate amount of exercise. Whether that’s a long walk along the waterfront or drive to forest park for a hike!

“Alisa is so kind! And I really appreciate how quickly she responds :) She took both my dogs on a thirty minute walk and the dogs loved her. I will definitely be having her walk my dogs again in the future.”

About: Hi, nice to meet you! As a fellow pet parent to a 7 year old German Shepherd mix and an 11 year old cat, I know how much peace of mind it brings to find someone you can truly trust. With over 10 years of pet-sitting experience, my goal is to become your pet’s (second) best friend and make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away! I care for pets of every shape, size, and life stage! Whether you have an energetic puppy or kitten, a sweet senior who needs gentle care, or a three-legged companion with unique needs, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I also have a soft spot for pets who are anxious, timid, or reactive and need a little extra patience. I’m comfortable following detailed routines, administering medications, and giving every pet the time, space, and attention they deserve. My dog occasionally joins me on sits when everyone is comfortable around other dogs, but she absolutely doesn’t have to come along! I always have care arranged for her at home, so I can accommodate whatever setup works best for your pets. Want to check out my reviews? ⭐ This Rover profile is new because I’m expanding my services across multiple regions in Oregon, but I’m happy to share my primary Rover profile so you can read my 5 star reviews and feedback from previous clients! I’d love to meet you and your furry family members and become someone you can count on whenever you need an extra hand ❤️ I’m currently taking a step back from full-time teaching to focus on substitute teaching, tutoring, and pet sitting! This gives me a more flexible schedule, allowing me to plan ahead and make sure your pets get all the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. Whether you have an energetic dog who loves long walks or hikes, a senior pet who needs medication, or a cozy cat who just wants some company, I’ll treat your pets like mine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to be more than just a sitter. I want to be a reliable sitter you can count on, and be your pet’s second best friend! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet and follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and their usual routines. I’m especially comfortable caring for anxious, timid, or reactive pets and understand the importance of patience, reassurance, and giving them space when they need it. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or mine, I want them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are in good hands!

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have always loved just being around animals. While I'm away from home, I'd love to spend some time with dogs and help give them the best possible time I can! I'm a college student, so my schedule shifts a bit with the seasons, but pet care fits in easily either way. Over the summer, I'm home essentially all day, every day, so I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins whenever they're needed. This fall, I'll be taking classes again, but since they're online and my schedule is very flexible, I'll still have plenty of availability throughout the day. While I don't currently have a pet of my own, I've spent a lot of time caring for others' animals and understand how much consistency and attention matters. I'm happy to work around your pet's existing routine, whether that means a set feeding schedule, a mid-day walk, or just extra company during the day. Since I offer dog walking and house sitting/drop-in visits rather than boarding, most of my pet care happens in the client's home and neighborhood, so I always make safety and comfort a top priority there. Before any visit, I like to get a clear understanding of the pet's routine, any commands they know, leash behavior, and specific instructions from the owner. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, stay aware of traffic and other animals, and avoid unfamiliar areas that could pose risks. For house sitting and drop-ins, I treat the client's home with the same care and respect as I would my own, making sure doors and gates are securely closed, food and water are refreshed as needed, and any medications or special routines are followed exactly as instructed. I also send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is safe and well cared for while they're away. At my own home, I have a fenced yard and no other pets or young kids, which makes it easy to give a visiting dog calm, focused attention with minimal distractions or safety concerns.
