“Our cats loved her! By the end of the visits she had our most skittish kitty excitedly waiting for food. Takes such great photos and does wonderful little summaries each time. Will absolutely book her again!”

“Kelsie was fantastic! She was very timely, posted photos of each drop-in visit, and described each event that occurred during the visit. My wife and I highly recommend her!”

About: I've cared for animals since childhood, looking after pets for both friends and family. I grew up with dogs and have lived with roommates who owned both cats and dogs, often caring for their pets while they were away. Additionally, I've provided regular care for large-breed dogs, including a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Newfoundland. These experiences have prepared me to provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. I currently have a very flexible work schedule, so I am able to work in dog walks and/or other pet care into my schedule every day of the week. I will always take the upmost care with every pet entrusted to me. I follow instructions precisely and always prioritize each animal's safety. My goal is to make every animal feel safe and comfortable while in my care.

“Rosa is a wonderful and caring person. She is very intuitive and instantly gained trust from my cats. She successfully delivered fluids to my kitty with kidney disease and provided me with updates. I would definitely rebook with Rosa.”

About: I've had pets since I was born. Cats and dogs of all shapes, sizes, and age. I've spent the last 14 years with my soul dog. He was a Golden/Lab/St. Bernard with a lot of anxiety and a huge love of food. In his old age he had mobility problems, incontinence, was on several medications, and needed as much attention as I could give him. I am fully prepared to give any animal I meet the same level of love and care. I've been the main care provider for my dogs for the last 14 years and always put their needs before mine. Taking them potty is the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing I do at night. Furry friends rely on us for care and I want to make sure they are doing great. When I care for pets in your home I will follow your instructions to a T. Make sure they get lots of love, cuddles (if they like them), and attention.

“Maya is amazing!! She took so many cute pictures and really made me feel better about leaving our kitty at home for a couple days. She was super responsive and gave lots of good updates. She’s my first pick from now on!”

About: I’ve raised two reactive dogs. One towards humans and one towards other dogs. This has taught me a lot of skill to keep the dog and others safe. I had a 16 year old pit bull mix who taught me about taking care of elderly dogs, such as changing diapers and giving medication. I truly love all animals and they are always my number 1 priority when I’m around them! I am very flexible with working all days on weekdays and if really needed open to weekends as well. Shoot me a text and I’m sure we can find a time! Whatever the owner says, goes. My interest is in creating the best environment for your pet. You know your pet better than anyone so I’m gonna listen to you. If I were to take your pet to my house, I do not have a fenced yard so they would stay inside with me whenever we are not walking or going on adventures. I’m a huge outdoor guy and if you have an active pup who loves the nature I would also love to go on hikes with them.

About: I am an experienced pet sitter and a true animal lover :) I have provided caring and compassionate pet care for the cats and dogs of my friends, family members and neighbors for several years. Previously, I have worked for a dog-walking agency and have received formal First Aid training in pet care. My work schedule varies day to day, which means our schedule will depend on the day and the service being provided. When I am working from home, I am able to provide frequent potty breaks, tons of play time and scheduled feedings as requested by the humans! If you and pup are interested in long walks and/or outside time, we will make it happen! If your dog is more chill and laid-back, I can provide attentive and gentle care, and relaxation time. I am happy to crate your puppy/dog if requested. For cat owners, I am very cautious moving in and out of an individual’s home - I know from experience that sometimes they try to sneak out the door to explore! I believe a primary component of building trust with a client is consistent communication, so I prioritize keeping owners updated with photos and check-ins throughout the day.

“Erica was able to take care of my dog when I was out of town for the day last minute. She was very professional and kind. Knowing she was able to spend some time with my dog put my mind at ease while I was out of town! ”

“Ada was incredible! Very communicative, professional, absolutely incredible with my pup, and an absolute pleasure to work with! Will definitely use her again.”

About: I've grown up around and cared for all sorts of animals all my life, especially dogs and cats. I've been dog sitting specifically for around 2 years, including caring for elderly dogs with strict needs/ medical issues, and anxious dogs. Despite mostly sitting for dogs at this point I'm also well versed with cats (having one of my own). I am a full-time college student, so while that takes up some time I am free Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's anytime after 2 and fully on the weekends. I make sure to follow their needs closely, keeping them on schedule with feeding, medications if necessary, etc. If an animal needs lots of interaction I make sure to give them as much attention as they want and if they don't then I make sure they're given the space they need. The individual animals care it of utmost importance and I make sure to individualize my care based on what each specific animal needs :)

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and I’m excited to meet yours! I am very experienced with reactive and senior dogs and understand that each dog is different and has individual needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions for care to ensure they are getting exactly what they need. I have worked with many rescues and currently work with NW Dog Project, so I’m well versed in all things dog. :) I take your trust in me seriously as I know how important our dogs are to us and I look forward to helping with their care. I am a self employed Massage Therapist so I have some flexibility in my schedule. I have mostly open availability on weekends and am available in the morning and evening on week days. It is possible I am available throughout the day if given enough notice. I will follow your lead on rules regarding walking your dog or drop-in visits- and will always respect your home and keep your dog safe and protected on walks!

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.

“Amy was amazing with our senior dog! She was so gentle, patient, and understanding. As a professional, Amy excels as well. She stayed in communication with us, took pictures or video, and was always on time. Our dog has some special needs and medications, and Amy made sure that everything was done just right. Amy is a joy to work with, and I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

About: I have volunteered at the Humane Society of Utah weekly for 5 years with both dogs and cats where I’ve had the opportunity to care for both dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and needs. Last year I moved to Oregon to pursue my undergraduate degree (go ducks!) and I’m so excited to bring my experience and love for animals to caring for your pets!! At home in Utah I have two dogs (Millie and Iroh) and a cat (Luna) and have been caring for them for the past 5 years. Iroh has epilepsy and anxiety so I am experienced with handling animal medications and special needs. I’m dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and I’m happy to accommodate their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I'm currently in school at University of Oregon but do not have a job outside of that so I have a fairly flexible schedule. Typically, I am in class from 12-5pm, which means I’m available to spend my mornings and evenings with your pups and kitties! My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment. I’ll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any other care they need. I will treat your home with the same care and consideration I would my own.

About: I have experience with all shapes and sizes, from playful pups to seniors with higher needs. I’ll always make sure every dog receives all the puppy love they deserve, whether that’s trail-running, daily walks, or a little extra playtime! With me being a student at OSU-Cascades, I have more free time than most, ensuring your pup gets all the care while you’re away 😊 Im a full-time Environmental Science student at OSU-Cascades with plenty of gaps to fill my schedule. This means flexible work and lots of available hours! I’m free pretty much any time, any day :) While my current living space is not suited for dogs, I will always acknowledge that your house is YOUR space and will do my absolute best to keep it better than how I found it. I have dog-sat throughout many places in Central Oregon and should you need a reference, I got you covered. I’m here for the pup and the pup only 😊

“Joshua is our go-to Rover for our two shy cats. As always, he is reliable and communicates promptly and well to keep us posted about our pets!”

About: I grew up in an animal-loving environment, and I have been a cat-mom since 2016. I love to spoil my babies and I want to spoil yours too! I worked in vet-med for a short time, and I have lots of experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm particularly skilled in befriending anxious cats and dogs. I have experience in giving oral medication, administering eye/ear drops, and trimming cat claws. I'm currently available 7 days a week and my schedule is very flexible. I have lots of time to dedicate to caring for your pet. I enjoy walking daily, and I really enjoy playing with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. My husband and I have two black cats at home, and we treasure them dearly. They get a lot of attention, play time, treats, and snuggles. I am comfortable spending time with your pet in your home, feeding them per your directions, giving any necessary medications, and taking them out for walks/exercise. I can drive your dog to a park or dog park, if desired. I will happily give your pet snuggles and scritches if they want them, but I also respect every animal's personal boundaries. I pay close attention to behaviors and body language that tell me if they feel safe and what kind of attention they want.

About: With 10 years of dog walking experience, I bring a loving and skilled approach to pet care. I'm experienced with all ages, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs. I've spent years caring for family and neighbors' pets, so I'm confident in handling any dog's unique needs with patience, care and love. I am currently a student at the university taking online classes and working Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons so my schedule is pretty much open any other morning, day or evenings! To care for pets in a client's home, I like to have a good understanding of their routines and needs. Maintaining consistent walks and playtime as well as feeding times. I make sure to keep the home tidy and or as it looked when i walked in.
