“We felt incredibly relieved to know that Molly was in great care! Ashleigh took photos, sent updates, and loved on Molly. She was incredibly communicative with us, and we are so grateful for her and the service she provided Molly and us! WE highly recommend her to care for your pup! Thanks, Ashleigh!”

“Such a relief having good care for my pups. Great host and her children are helpful and love animals. Perfect location for walks to the park. I appreciated photo updates and will definitely request boarding with Michelle in the future. She also does gorgeous pet portraits!”

“Our boy LOVED being with Ann and Adam! He got to go to the dog park, river swims and fetch! He loved being spoiled so much he is moping around, missing his little vacation with his new bestie Archer. Definitely going to trust our guy with them again!!”

“Gregory was great. He took Lola for a ride and a park outing. An all-around great weekend. And Lola made a new canine buddy her size. Yeah!”

“Angela was fantastic with Juniper and was excellent at keeping me updated with pics during her stay. She was great with communication, and flexible when it came to drop off and pick up logistics. Would 100% recommend her for overnight stays, and I hope to have her watch Juniper again in the future!”

“Thank you Christina for the loving care you gave Willie. I know he enjoyed his visit because he was very calm and mellow when we picked him up”

Susan M.

“Madeline was amazing! Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and was so excited to stay with her when we dropped her off. I would absolutely recommend her!”

Rio J.

“Words cannot express how amazing Alexandra and her husband, Mike, were to my girls. I have two big gentle giants and they treated them as if they were their own. They took them on long walks, played with them, cuddled them, and gave endless scratches! These girls couldn’t have been in better hands and the photos I received showed that! I enjoyed my trip knowing the care they were receiving. When I picked them up, I could tell they had the best time and truly loved Alexandra and Mike. I could not recommend these amazing hosts enough! Their hospitality and kindness are unmatched and I will absolutely be bringing my girls back in the future! I would give them 10 stars if I could. Absolutely book!”

Chelsey R.

“Samantha was a great choice for our 4 year old lab. She was very attentive and communicative, sending pictures and updates often. Would definitely use her again!”

Hannah H.

“Colin and his daughters were incredibly kind and helpful watching our dogs over the holiday weekend — especially with only 30 minutes notice! They sent photo updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind, and we never had to worry about our pups at all. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they watch. We’re so grateful for their flexibility and care, and would absolutely book with them again!”

About: I’ve always had a pet as a member of my family. Cats and dogs. My current love is a super chill (yes, there is such a thing!) lab. Every walk is a mini training adventure. My lab Riley will get along with your pup, it’s just his nature. I provide enrichment during the day to keep boredom away. If I visit your cats, I know they might not visit me! I’ll just sit on the floor and wait for them to come out from under the bed! I’m fortunate to be able to adjust my retiree schedule every day. I’m flexible to your particular pet’s needs and schedule. It depends on the type of service, in my home or in yours. I have a completely fenced, (tall too) back yard. I don’t leave my pup unattended while he’s out. We leash walk mornings, afternoon and evenings. I have numerous sniffing loops I use as I live along the canal.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since elementary school taking care of two family dogs with very high energy! Now a work from home dog dad, I can provide plenty of attention to your furry friends. Including morning, lunch time, and evening walks to get the zoomies out, play tug of war, or some simple fetch. I work from home and tend to have very limited scheduled meetings. This allows me to be flexible with my week day schedule as I’m available 8am and on to take care and play with your dogs. Weekends I am typically busy with an outdoors adventure, but am always open to adding a furry friend to join my pup on outings. I have a completely fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run around and get the zoomies out. I live in a safe and quiet neighborhood with a great 20-30 minute walking loop and quick access to the Deschutes river if your dog loves the water.

About: Hi! I'm Naomi, a lifelong animal lover based in Bend, Oregon. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets as if they were family. I share my home with two dogs and a cat, so I'm comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your dog loves long walks and adventures or prefers a slower pace and plenty of cuddles, I'm happy to tailor my care to what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I offer dependable, attentive care with regular photo updates, so you'll always know how your pets are doing while you're away. I'm experienced with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, reinforcing routines, and giving pets the patience and affection they deserve. My goal is simple: to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets. I treat every animal in my care like one of my own, providing plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and companionship. * Experienced caring for both dogs and cats * Comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and multiple-pet households * Reliable, responsible, and communicative * Flexible scheduling * Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment * Regular photo and message updates * Calm, patient approach that helps pets feel at home I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. Let's schedule a meet-and-greet so we can make sure it's the perfect fit! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet is staying overnight, stopping by for a visit, or joining me for a walk, they'll receive consistent care, exercise, and lots of affection. I plan my day around the pets in my care, making sure they have regular potty breaks, meals on their normal schedule, playtime, walks, and time to relax. I believe keeping pets on their usual routine helps them feel comfortable and reduces stress while you're away. When your pet stays with me, they'll be treated like part of the family. I strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable from the moment they arrive. I take the time to learn each pet's routine—including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, favorite toys, sleeping habits, and any medications or special instructions. Keeping their routine as consistent as possible helps them settle in and feel at home. My home features a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs a secure place to run, play, sniff, and enjoy the outdoors under my supervision. In addition to backyard playtime, each day includes walks, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Safety is always my top priority. Pets are never left outside unattended, I closely supervise all interactions, and I maintain a clean, pet-friendly home where they can relax and feel at ease.

“Kathryn was sure to ask all the right question about Rossco’s needs and care. He was so happy with her and her family. They made sure he was played and got to go on lots of walk. Such a great experience for my first time with boarding on Rover. I won’t be looking anywhere else for care when I am in need of a dog sitter unless Kathryn is all booked.”

“Where to begin - from Meet and Greet to picking up Stanley at the end of his stay, everything was perfect! Lauren is the ultimate professional with patience and expertise in caring for these fur babies of ours. In fact, Stanley was so excited to stay with Lauren that after the meet and greet, he jumped out of our SUV before the gate was down and ran back into her house! From day 1 of his stay with Lauren, we received daily detailed texts and pictures of how and what he was doing. He was having the time of his life!! We were especially happy to hear that Stanley was doing well with Lauren's little girl. He hasn't been around small kids before so that was a great positive experience as well. Lauren made everything easy for us. All we had to provide was his food and lead. Lauren had everything else that he needed. We will definitely book with Lauren again. We are ever grateful for the excellent care she provided. Deserved 20 stars at least!”
