Lifetime animal lover! Current dog mama to Frank for the past 14 years. She's 16 years young and going strong! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and all breeds, as well as with medication administration. I work a full time job in healthcare at OHSU, and am open for dog walks and sitting jobs as well. I am happy to work with your schedule, and look forward to meeting your pack! ++Complete availability on Thursday/Fridays, also any time after work (date night woo!), overnights for animals (if you are ok with them being alone 8 hours), and any errands or help needed outside of my work schedule. Here to help and will work with your schedule. Thank you for considering me and adding to my nursing fund++

I've been an animal lover and owner my entire life. Mostly dogs, but there were also 2 ducks, a couple of rats, a cat, a guinea pig and a hamster in the mix as well over the years. But I've been working professionally in the dog world for 13 years now. I think I've had just about every job there is. I've done private walks, group walks, pack hikes, pet taxi, and I've worked at variety of daycare and boarding facilities. I've also done daycare and overnight boarding in my home. Even poop scooper there for a while! I've taken care of 5lb dogs and 160lb dogs. Old dogs, blind dogs, handicapped dogs, you name it. I just love being around dogs all day. I have found the perfect career for me, and it's definitely my happy place. Contact me any time, I'm happy to help in any way if I can.

Jen comes 3x/week to take our 110# English Golden Retriever out with about 6 other dogs. The group is mostly the same each week, so he gets to play with his same friends. He absolutely loves it! He waits by the door at 2:00 and whines in anticipation when he hears her truck pull up. She runs him around and keeps him active, too, so he doesn't just flop down with a stick. On hot days she picks shady places with water and on rainy days she dries him off before depositing him back in the house. He comes home happy and exhausted. I am disabled and can no longer give Charlie the exercise and social interaction he deserves to have a good life. It's a line item in my budget and worth every penny.

Dog And Cat Lover

Hello! I'm Sarah, a 27-year-old pursuing her Bachelor's degree in Marketing! I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have been pet sitting since I was in my single digits for my neighbors and family members growing up. I have experience with 2-month-old puppies & kittens to senior dogs & cats, toy breeds to large breeds, as well as caring for 4 cats & 20 dogs at a time at a dog day care and boarding facility I worked at as a part time job. I am not an idle person and I'm creative, organized, and a planner. In my care I love to incorporate trips to the dog park, walks, games for mental stimulation and physical activity, and assist in correcting unwanted behaviors, and sending you photos during my care. I hope that I may be the right fit for four legged friend(s) and we may get to talk further, you won't be disappointed. References on request! Thank you! :)

Sarah is extremely professional, thorough and organized. She goes over and beyond with her thoughtfulness with tasks in our home. We have a great Dane and she is amazing with her! ( we give her even more bonus points for this!) We have also used her meal prepping skills. Her meals are beautiful, delicious and VERY helpful with time managing our weeks. Even with food sensitivities, she is able to work around and still make delicious meals. She is a very skilled house manager!

In 2018, I graduated from OSU with a Bachelor's Degree in Zoology because I am a dedicated animal lover! I have paid experience working for SafeHaven Humane Society, 3 Dogs Boarding and Daycare, and OSU's Mammalogy lab. Taking care of animals is my biggest passion in life and my dream job is to train guide dogs for the blind. I've taken care of many dogs over the years, big and small. I currently take care of my 4-year-old rescued cattle dog, Mollie, and my roommate's 2-year-old rescued dachshund mix, Pinto. I truly love all animals and have no problem with cleaning up after animals, giving baths, going on walks/runs, and giving lots of good belly rubs! Throughout my lifetime I've helped raise cats, dogs, hermit crabs, fish, birds, snakes, frogs, gerbils, and even a chinchilla! I have the education, the experience, and the passion to give your pet the absolute best care possible!

I am a lover of all animals and have lots of experience with pet-sitting, dog-walking, etc. I grew up helping my grandpa at his animal rescue, where he saved and rehabilitated dogs, horses, and even exotic animals like a kangaroo and a zebra! I am available to come to your house, and can also board at mine, no problem! I have a small, friendly dog who gets along with others, but can be kept up if need be! I look forward to hearing from you :)

College Graduate Looking For Childcare Position

I'm a Reed College graduate (Art History '15) trying to figure out what I want to do with my life (grad school? historic preservation? animal behaviorist?) and, in the mean time, enjoying feeling like a kid again. I'm looking forward to fun-filled days of exploring, adventuring, creating, discovering, learning, and laughing! I have been sitting regularly for 14 years, first in Chicago where I grew up and now in Portland. I have experience with children of all ages, including twin toddlers, 5-month-old babies, and siblings ages 3-13. My childcare responsibilities can include cooking, cleaning, household chores, transportation, homework help, ESL tutoring, errands, and pet care. I am fluent in Spanish. I enjoy exploring the great outdoors, cooking and baking, reading, arts and crafts, cuddling with pets, board games, puzzles, building towers, picnics, plants, music, museums, and much more. I am happy to share more information about myself and my references upon request, so please ask!

I have previously babysat (overnight as well) for a family as needed through college along side of working a full time job. I can multi-task exceptionally well. The family had 3 toddlers, and pets too. I am comfortable and confident I can take care of your family if given clear communication on how you'd like me to help. I have worked with high school age kids and special needs children in after school activities. The past couple years I have managed a juice bar, and made taking care of my employees a priority. I would share this care and my hard work with your family if you chose me to work with you. I am adult, child and baby first Aid/CPR/AED certified.
