About: I am an animal lover, I only have 2 pets in my home right now, but I would have a cat rescue if I was able. Experience with all ages of pets. My schedule is flexible as I work from home. I prefer to walk in the morning or evening, to avoid heat stress, but I am able to work around your schedule I have an 8yr old St. Benard who is a gental giant and a 8ish year old cat that's my baby. A fenced large yard.

“Savanah was an absolute delight to work with, was very compassionate, and communicative throughout the process. It was so lovely that Lola and Oshie played together and Lola got to be her mostly lazy self. Lola was very well taken care of and I would absolutely have Savanah watch Lola again.”


About: “Over 25 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. Skilled in feeding, walking, bathing, administering medication, and providing lots of love and attention. Reliable, compassionate, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs.” I currently work 4 days a week so I have Thursday night through Sunday night to hang out and care for your furry friends. I do get some weeks off so I do have some variability. • Provide a clean, pet-friendly, and fully pet-proofed environment. • Secure indoor space with locked doors, gated areas, and no access to hazardous items (e.g., cleaning supplies, toxic plants). • Pets are never left unattended for long periods; supervised play and rest throughout the day. • Separate quiet area for nervous or older pets to feel comfortable and stress-free. • Familiar items from home (toys, blankets) encouraged to ease transitions. • Regular communication with pet owners including photo and video updates for peace of mind. • Emergency protocols in place: local vet contact, pet first aid knowledge, and transport readiness if needed. For owners home I will follow your protocol to make the environment as close to the pets routine as possible.

“Zuri is absolutely fantastic! My mini schnauzer had a blast and made friends with her dog kids. She is incredibly attentive and genuinely loving. She’s the only dog sitter I will use now! If I could give 10 stars I would.”


“Total dog people, my pups are so excited to go and come home tired! Accommodated some last minute schedule changes without hesitation! So nice to have a place where my guys are loved and safe.”


About: I have owned 5 different dogs in my lifetime, and each one lived to be over 10 years old, I am a “dog whisperer” as some people say because of my ability to connect with them and make them happy! I currently work part time and do this as another part time job. I am available most days in the week to watch your pet! Please let me know 1 or 2 days in advance for pet care, and I will do my best to work out the schedule details! My house is a reasonable size and has a huge fenced yard for your dog to play in. I will make sure they feel at home when you’re gone and get care as you request.

“Diana was communicative, flexible and wonderful. My little guy had a wonderful time and she took the time to make sure he got comfortable. Will definitely be booking again”


“Ayla was able to accommodate Palmer on extremely short notice! Very knowledgeable about socializing and overall dog behaviors. Took the time to make sure Palmer was comfortable and acclimated appropriately. Thank you!”


“Emily was great! She was super communicative and friendly, and it was clear my dog loved her right away. She kept me informed by sending videos and pictures, and it was so reassuring to see how happy my dog was while I was out of town.”


“Samantha and her family make getting away carefree. For the first time since I began having pups, I can actually go on vacation or weekend getaways with absolutely zero worry about my fur baby. Charlie, my 6 month old Shih Tzu, almost doesn’t want to come home with me because he feels so loved and has had an absolute blast. He also comes home completely exhausted from all of the fun with her adorable and sweet little girls. Highly recommend for anyone who loves their pups.”



“Jo was amazing! My dog had so much fun with her and her dogs. She was also super accommodating when our flight was delayed. She communicated well, and sent pictures every day of our dog playing and having a great time!”


“Very nice guy, was easy to schedule drop off and pickup. Can tell he loves dogs as much as I do. My dog was well taken care of, and good and tired out from playing with Nick's dog. Will definitely book with Nick again.”


“Pakuna is honestly hands down the best sitter ever. This was my first time leaving my puppy for a couple of days and was very nervous about leaving my puppy but Pakuna reassured me that everything will be ok and that my pup would have a blast. Our pup loved being with her and her pitty. Highly recommend booking her!”

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey! I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, especially when they’re shy, senior, or have very specific routines. I always give time, patience, and quiet energy to built trust and respect boundaries. You and your pup can expect many photo and video updates, medication administration if needed, daily walks, feeding and many cuddles. I treat every dog like they’re my own-because that’s what I’d want for mine. I’m always happy to follow detailed instructions, maintain routines, and make sure your pup feels seen, safe and spoiled. I am a part-time caregiver for humans too ! I have recently relocated to Corvallis and would love to help out as much as possible! I provide positive reinforcement and match your pets energy requirements-from calm and quiet to running in circles playing! I treat your pet just like my own

About: I have taken care of family/friends dogs since I was little, I have also taken care of my own since I was a teenager. I have one puppy now who is a year and 5 months who is my best friend. I love all animals. I can help train a bit with basics if need be, am very patient and caring. I am able to take on walks, to the park or just hang out if needed. I can also give baths if they need one. I understand all dogs are unique and have different needs and am willing to help. I currently work part time, Tuesday through Friday. So I will have plenty of time to check in on, take on walks/ to parks and just play with your animals. I can also bring my puppy along for other dogs if you would like so they have someone to play with or just learn to be around other dogs! I can either take care of your pet in your home or in mine if needed. I do have a fenced yard and a puppy of my own. Who is friendly with other dogs and can play/ keep your dog company if you would like. I know how crates work and am willing to learn the routine you have for your animal. (Food/crate/sleeping habits).

“Gayle is the absolute best! She sends lots of update, pictures and videos and is very flexible with owner’s needs. My dog is so excited to see Gayle and her dog Sitka, he just runs in her house, he doesn’t even look back to say bye to me 😢🤩😊.”

“Daisy had a great stay! She looked happy in all of the update pictures. She handled her medications for me and her special food needs. Daisy was calm and happy on the way home after her stay. Will definitely use her again.”


About: I have grown up with various animals. Our family has had everything from lizards, hamsters, dogs, cats, and horses. I am a vet student at Oregon State and have had the opportunity to work with many different animals. My availability is flexible and chances are I can be there when your pet needs me. I have class during the weekdays but plenty of time before school, during lunch, and in the afternoon/evening. I would be more than happy to come meet your pets before sitting for them if they are nervous around new people or if you as the owner would like to meet me first! I love going on hikes and walks and being outdoors. If your pet loves these things I am more than happy to go on long walks and if not hanging out at home works for me too!

Albany pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nicole was amazing! It was the first time we have left our dog for a whole week and it was the most perfect stay. When meeting, Nicole asked many questions about Kiyoshi’s routines and habits, and while we were gone she sent daily updates and photos. Kiyoshi was very happy! We will book again next trip we go on for sure!
