Providing Pet Sitting in the Deschutes County, Oregon
Quiet, clean, responsible sitter. Loves senior dogs and special needs pets.
I got lucky! After another sitter had to cancel for a family emergency, Suzanne said she was available to step in. I know she's well sought after here on TH so I always feel like I won the jackpot when she's available. This was a short sit but it didn't matter, Suzanne is always consistent. She's well organized, clean, and generous with her loves to our animals and most of all is great about communicating while we're away. Thank you Suzanne!

Kelly and Samuel were wonderful, trustworthy, and reliable. It was the first vacation that I never worried about the house or the pets! They kept us informed each day with sweet photos of each pet and a brief update on how things were going. They pay great attention to detail and kept the safety of each pet a priority. Our house was cleaner than when we left and all indoor and outdoor plants looked great (despite an unexpected heat wave). These folks are great!

Ed and Luz were extremely professional and friendly sitters. We can't recommend them enough. They took excellent care of our two dogs and we returned to a home that was sparkling clean. Ed is a great communicator and they are very self-sufficient. We will definitely invite them to sit again!

Sharon and Paul were absolutely amazing. As we agreed, they sent me daily updates and pictures - which were fun to receive and definitely kept my mind at ease knowing that Ollie was being cared for, exercised and loved on. These two are wonderful and very thoughtful and generous. They took care of my house and left it perfectly clean. I would highly recommend this lovely couple and I would use them again in a heart beat.

 Amy was an excellent House/Pet Sitter. Our kitties were very happy and content when we got home. She left the house very clean. She communicated very well with us during the day. We would be happy to have her as a pet sitter again.

Experienced and Energetic Couple: Your House and Pets are Priority #1 for us !!
Richard and Caroline were fantastic sitters! They helped us out by arriving a day early since we had an early flight the next day. They are easy going and very kind and oh so loving and caring towards our animals. They communicated with pics and videos and general updates, which made us feel at ease. Our house was clean as can be upon our return! We'd welcome them back anytime!!

Much experience and TLC for your pets and home!
Jane was absolutely wonderful. It was so nice knowing that my dog and house were well taken care of while I was away. She learned all about my dog and house beforehand, as she was actually sitting in a house nearby. So I was really lucky to have that. While I was away she communicated well and shared photos, which I always love. Afterward, she left my house nice and clean! I would trust Jane again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!

Caring mathematician, artist, woman
Our house/pet sit with Yael was great. We communicated several times through e-mail and video chat prior to her arrival so although she arrived after we were already gone, everything went smoothly. E-mail updates assured us that everything was fine at home and our cat was well taken are of while on our trip. When we returned home, the house was clean and neat with a nice welcome home note from Yael and it was obvious by the cat's behavior that he had received plenty of loving care. I highly recommend Yael as a responsible and caring house/pet sitter.

Animals are my teachers, healers and our earth angels.
It was such a joy to have Hamsa stay in our home with George. Such a lovely presence about her and her connection with George was immediately evident. George outdid himself living his very best cat life and Hamsa remained unruffled and creative with his daily antics. Hamsa was great with communications and updates for us and I loved that she was able to take advantage of the beauty of the area and the outdoors. We would love to have her back any time she is available when we travel. Very definitely a 5 star sitter.
We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!
honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Rebecca was amazing! She is a kind and clear communicator, took loving care of our pets, and left the house in perfect tidy shape. My husband commented, "You can't even tell she was here!" :-) Her calm demeanor, intelligence, humor, and common sense experience as a pet owner made her the ideal sitter for our 7 pets of varying species, ages, personalities, and needs. She managed the pet routine like a pro—including diapers and daily meds for our older dog—and cared for all of our pets as if they were her own. If you're looking for total peace of mind, Rebecca is your sitter!
Sharon was a fantastic sitter for our week away! She left the house as tidy and clean as we left it, including changing the sheets for our arrival. I truly cannot even tell she was here and that made coming home after a long travel day so much easier. She was communicative every step of the way and provided daily updates on our cat with photos. We knew our home and pet were in good hands! I would gladly welcome Sharon back any time should we be so lucky : )
Leah was an excellent pet sitter and take care of our home when we were on vacation. Our dogs were sad when she left. She even made us some delicious tacos when we got home from the airport! We highly recommend her!
Erin was a great pet sitter who took such good care of little Chino. She was very reliable, kept us up to date with videos/pictures, looked after our home and kept it neat and tidy. She even left a thoughtful gift upon our return and was flexible with our travel plans. We would definitely recommend Erin for anyone looking for a reliable and friendly pet sitter!
We had the pleasure of having Tara as our house sitter while we were away, and we can't praise her enough for the fantastic job she did. Not only did she take excellent care of our home, but she also showed tremendous love and attention to our beloved dogs. From the moment Tara walked through the door, we could tell she had a genuine passion for animals. She immediately bonded with our dogs, and they seemed completely at ease with her. Throughout our trip, she provided us with regular updates and photos, which truly put our minds at ease knowing our boys were in great hands. Tara took great care of our home as well. It was evident that she respected our space and coming back home, we found everything just as we left it, if not even better! We highly recommend Tara to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and caring house sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she proved herself to be a responsible and dedicated individual. If you want to ensure your pets and home are in the best hands while you're away, Tara is the perfect choice. Thank you, Tara, for taking such incredible care of our dogs and home. You made our trip stress-free, and we're truly grateful.
David was a super interesting guy, we had good conversation. My place was clean, my cat was happy...he communicated with me.. David is a great house and pet sitter . He is very gentle, which my cat enjoys.
What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs! You can truly feel their love for animals. Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson! Our home was perfect when we got home. They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen. We highly recommend this couple! Jim & Wanda
Amazing experience! Five stars all the way... Nikki was kind enough to watch our two cats Thomas and Toby while were away on our honeymoon. From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with clear communication and quick replies. Since she was local in Atlanta we got to meet her ahead of time and hand off keys before we left. While we were away she sent pictures of our little buds having fun and being themselves, so we always knew they were ok. She always showed up exactly when she said she would from pickup to dropoff and it was so incredible to know they were in good hands, and we never had to worry. They love being around people so for her to have been able to stay with them and love on them regularly we came home and could immediately tell both Thomas and Toby felt great as they were completely comfortable. Much much different than when we leave even for a few days and have a pet sitter stop by and feed them. She asked all the necessary questions in advance, so she didn't have to email or ask anything while we were away. She even took the time to make sure everything was neat and tidy, prepped the sheets to be changed, and was unbelievably sweet to get us a wedding gift we both love. Nikki we can't thank you enough for taking care of our cats, and we would only be so lucky if you stuck around town! :)
