About: I have cared for a variety of dogs for over 6 years. From puppy to elder, tiny to huge, and sleepy to bouncing off of the walls- I love hanging with all! I have experience in multi animal households, walking (exercise in general), feeding regiments, injuries such as ear infections, etc. It is important to me to maintain normalcy as much as possible while owners are away, and make sure they feel so loved! I am a recently graduated student who is in Eugene for the summer. I work part-time doing research virtually so I have a lot of time on my hands 🙂 I truly cannot think of anything better to do than meet all of the animal neighbors around me. **I am only in Eugene through August 15th** I value clear instructions and will always focus on meeting those expectations. Happy to reinforce rules, training, etc. in all ways! Routine is so important for our pets and I always uplift whatever the norms are.

“Azul did a great job checking in on Jasper while I was away! She made sure his automatic feeder and litter box were working and kept me updated after each visit. I also really appreciated that she came by beforehand so I could show her everything and go over Jasper’s routine. She was easy to communicate with, reliable, and I felt comfortable knowing Jasper was being taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely book with Azul again!”

“I chose Paula because she was very friendly, prompt, and communicative. It was our first time using a sitter for our cat. Naturally, we were nervous. However, Paula took the time to get to know our cat, sent daily updates with photos, monitored food and water intake, and provided her with play time. Paula was reliable, responsible, and our cat loved cuddling with her daily. Paula went above and beyond by vacuuming up the mess our cat made with the litter box. I would definitely recommend Paula, and feel great knowing that if we need help again, we can reach out to her!”

“Sabrina is fantastic. She watched our cat for a 10 day trip and did a great job of getting our cat to warm up to her. Sabrina spent lots of extra time hanging out with her to make her feel comfortable. By the end they were good friends, which is not common for our cat. Right at the beginning of the trip, she discovered ants in our kitchen. She went out of her way to clean up any traces of food and every day she vacuumed up any residual ants. By the time we got home it was all taken care of. She also helped with trash and recycling while we were away. 10/10, highly recommend Sabrina.”

“August did an incredible job with our 2 kitties. Her communication was thorough and she was on top of everything. She sent lots of great photos which was awesome for pet parents with separation anxiety. We will definitely book August again and highly recommend her for pet sitting. Thanks so much August, the boys will miss you! 🩵”

“From our first initial contact I could tell Conner was thorough, attentive, and caring. He asked great questions that a sitter had never asked before. We felt confident that is something terrible were to happen when we were gone, our cats would be in good hands. Our cats seemed to warm up to him quickly which is impressive for them. Conner was also very flexible and understanding about key drop off when our building had an unexpected issue.”


“Kinsley is a top notch dog-sitter! She visited our dog 4 times per day with detailed updates each time. We know Macey is in great hands with Kinsley. Highly recommend!”
“Marcia was very friendly and great with our kitten. We were nervous to leave her alone for the first time, but Marcia sent lots of pictures and took a lot of our worry away. Will definitely be contacting her again in the future :)”

“Kristen was excellent as always. She is so caring and communicative. She took the initiative to find activities for our dog during her check ins. Highly recommend.”

“We brought in Justin to help supplement Morsel's care while away on vacation. He was punctual and very responsive. We would absolutely continue to work with Justin on future trips.”

“Malaina was great! Wubz doesnt tend to like…anyone, really, but it seems she warmed up while I was away. I got updates and AMAZING pictures of my fur demon while I was gone. I came back and everything was clean, food was full, and poops were sufficiently thieved. Such peace of mind to return to!”

“Krista was a fantastic pet sitter - very responsive and went far and beyond. Our kitty loved her and it was so lovely leaving town knowing that our kitty was well taken care of!”

“Felix provided very detailed updates when he checked in on Monty today! I appreciated the neighborhood investigation updates and knowing the peace that I feel knowing when I’m out of service range that Monty is well taken care of!”

“Raymond was great and very communicative! We loved all the pictures he sent us throughout of the doggies. We got the sense that he really knew what he was doing compared to other Rover’s we’ve hired in the past. The girls seemed happy when we got home which is a great sign. Thank you Raymond! We recommend his service to anyone interested and will definitely hire again in the future 🙂”

“There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude and overall recommendation for Deanna! She helped us with a unique request for our pup and dealt with many detours along the way with nothing but kindness and humanity. Canyon looks forward to future walks with her!”

“I can tell my cats were well cared for by Hannah as they were comfortable and content upon my return from a trip. Hannah also kept the house clean, taking care of the usual messes left by the cats. I'd happily recommend Hannah and hope to hire her again in the future!”

About: I’ve cared for cats for most of my life and have owned several of my own as an adult. I also had a dog for several years, so I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, litter box care, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their usual routines. I’ve also been involved in cat rescue work, which has given me experience with different personalities and comfort levels. I’m attentive, reliable, and happy to provide frequent updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are well cared for while you’re away. I work from home on weekdays and have a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I’m generally most available between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m., with afternoons being especially convenient. I can often accommodate visits outside those hours as well with advance notice. I’m very attentive to each pet’s routine, comfort, and safety, and I’ll follow your care instructions closely. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, a clean litter box or bathroom break, appropriate play and attention, and plenty of time to feel comfortable with me. I’m also careful about doors, gates, medications, and any special instructions you provide.

Adria was an absolute dream of a pet sitter for our extended weekend away. Watching two cats and an elderly dog is no small task, but she handled it with exceptional care, thoroughness, and genuine love. What truly sets Adria apart is her attention to detail. She picked up on small things that most people might miss, but made a world of difference for our peace of mind. Whether it was double-checking that the automated feeder was working properly or keeping an eye on our cat who insists on chomping on plastic, she never missed a beat. Her communication was thoughtful, clear, and proactive. Seeing our senior dog and cats looking so relaxed and looking like absolute stars brought us so much joy while we were away. If you are looking for someone who will treat your animals with the exact same level of detail, affection, and care that you do, hire Adria!

Azul did a great job checking in on Jasper while I was away! She made sure his automatic feeder and litter box were working and kept me updated after each visit. I also really appreciated that she came by beforehand so I could show her everything and go over Jasper’s routine. She was easy to communicate with, reliable, and I felt comfortable knowing Jasper was being taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely book with Azul again!

Heather is hands down one of the best cat sitters we’ve worked with on or off Rover! We know we can trust the care of our cat with her and appreciate her thoughtful touches and all of the adorable photos she takes! She is extremely quick to respond to requests and was super accommodating and patient with some of our last minute changes. Can’t recommend her enough!

The best cat sitter we have ever had, highly recommend! Our cats aren’t the easiest to watch (one is not good with strangers and needs a pill) and Simran handled everything in stride. She asks all of the right questions. She is a great communicator and ultimately let us enjoy our vacation and feel at ease with her taking care of our pets. Will be booking her for all our future trips.
