why pampered moose?

Locals and visitors to Central Oregon want the best for their pets. They also want to get out, adventure, and travel where their non-human friends can’t always tag along. Some pups don’t do so well left alone or in environments outside their homes like boarding kennels or daycares; rescues and infant animals often have separation anxiety; many local rental properties require pet supervision. Each owner, pet, and home is unique. At Pampered Moose we establish an authentic relationship with each client based on communication, reliability, and trust.

Pet parents deserve to be pampered too! For those who need to get away for a few hours, a weekend, or longer, look no further than Pampered Moose for customized pet care services. We provide you with peace of mind that your animals and property are safe and expertly cared for, giving you more time and energy to do your thing.

Pampered Moose is a fully licensed and registered LLC in the State of Oregon. Pampered Moose LLC and sitters are covered by PetCare Business Insurance. All Pampered Moose sitters are certified in cat and dog first aid.

fear free pet care

As a Fear Free pet sitting business we do our part in employing and advocating for practices that promote physical and emotional wellbeing. We are committed to learning, recognizing and responding appropriately to even subtle signs of fear, anxiety and stress in the animals for which we are caring. Dogs, much like people, carry trauma; aversive interactions can add to that trauma, often worsening behavior or reactivity. Our sitters will use scientifically sound, reward-based methods, avoiding using fear and force to motivate the animal. We will not utilize prong collars, shock or e-collars, bark collars, etc. This kind of approach can lead to a pet care scenario providing the opposite of peace of mind for humans and animals alike.

Pampered Moose will collaborate with pet pawrents to establish relationships with the dog(s) based upon their familiar routines and domestic environments, working to understand their cognition and how they relate to the world around them. Sitters can work within routines established by your Fear Free, positive reinforcement (R+), or balanced trainer. We are also able to recommend some local dog behavior and training experts who root their work in kindness and relationship building.
