Relax, I have this... 🐾 Have peace of mind when you need to be away!
I am a mild tempered, mature individual who travels around Oregon and into Washington, providing in-home pet care and small farm sitting. I care for animals of varying needs and so many different personalities! I thoroughly enjoy what I am doing and love each animal under my care! Providing this service to families and individual pet owners brings me joy, and plan to continue for as long as I possibly can.

Linda responded to our house/pet sitting appointment request fast & kept in touch with us really well. This week she came to our home to meet our pets, see our environment, & she spoke with us & asked questions so comfortably at ease that we hired her. It’s the 1st time we’ve used online pet sitting service & I know we’ll have a fun, relaxing vacation with Linda staying on our property caring for our furry kids!

Linda did a wonderful job with our 2 boxers. I could tell they liked her from the moment she met them, and were content when we came home. Linda is prompt and reliable, and shared photos with us via email showing our very happy dogs. Linda has a partner, Lana, who also takes care of pets, which worked out wonderfully for us. Our son has 2 boxers as well and Lana took care of them as we all went to a family reunion together. We will most certainly use Peace of Mind Pet Care Services whenever we leave town!

Thank you Hanne : )
Lana and I each enjoyed caring for your family of boxer babies! It is always a pleasure to care for pawed companions that are well cared for and loved by the entire family. Your boxers are affectionate, well mannered and have great personalities. We look forward to spending more of our days with them. Linda

Linda did a great job with my older lab mix. My dog was happy and well taken care of. Embarrassingly enough, I was working on a flea situation when I left town, and Linda was so helpful and really went above and beyond by spraying and even brought over a natural remedy she used for fleas. She left the house in perfect condition, and even washed the bedding.
I would not hesitate to use Linda again.

Linda was great watching our two older dogs. She kept us updated while we were away, and we came home to very happy tails.

Linda was awesome this past weekend taking care of our boxer Gemma.
She went "above and beyond the normal pet sitter" walking Gemma for a great long walk, giving her tons of attention, taking her potty, feeding her and sharing her love, caring and compassion with Gemma. Highly recommend Linda and cccshe will be taking care of Gemma again and again. We felt comfortable and relaxed while we were at our event with no worries at all. We are sure we would feel the same way about any of Linda's employees. THANK YOU LINDA from Michael, Rose and Gemma.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
3 day minimum fee for care outside of Eugene/Springfield.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After initial contact and providing you with any information you may need, we set up a meet and greet at your home where you can see I am who I present myself. At that time we meet your pets and talk in detail about their care needs and any other responsibilities. A tour of your home and security instructions are provided when you have made your decision to hire. When you feel comfortable to hire, you provide a key which I personally will keep secure in a fire and waterproof safe. Some clients prefer their key returned after each visit, others have me hold on to it. If I am holding a key, it makes life easier in the event something happens where you are unable to make it home for a feeding or potty break, medicine.
Whatever you feel comfortable with, key preference is your choice.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My love for animals and desire to be a part of ensuring pets are safe, loved, and in all ways taken care of while their humans are away from home keeps me doing this.
