“Harper was very good. She kept me updated and sent pictures. She even cleaned up the mess my dog made as she got out of her crate and loved her freedom. I highly recommend her.”


“We truly appreciate Deb taking great care of our sweet tiny dog! Deb ensures that Gambit gets sunshine, playtime, treat toys & warm cuddles. Deb provides updates & photos that are uplifting & very amusing!”


“Kateri welcomed the opportunity to watch over my best friend. Echo took to Kateri’s approach of care so much that I could clearly see from the pictures she sent each day. It was a long stay too, for a 2+ week, twice a day drop in visit. She was responsive, professional, and exceeded our expectations for a guardian while we were away. Thanks, Kateri! You crushed it.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Maya! She took great care of our babies and was very mindful of their specific needs. It’s always tough to leave our fur babies behind, but Maya’s detailed updates and photos made us feel very comfortable and able to relax while we were gone.”


“Maya’s first ever Rover experience with Lisha has been amazing! Lisha goes above and beyond to make sure she is comfortable, well cared for, and happy :) Lisha takes lots of photos and videos, checks in, and is overall a great communicator. We look forward to more weekends with her services.”


“Johnny did a great job taking care of our cat while we were out of town. He was very communicative and our cat was in great spirits when we returned. Will definitely be booking again!”


“Scott is an incredible cat-sitter for my cat Stanley. He treats him as his own pet and always impresses me with his in-depth cat knowledge. On top of that Scott goes above and beyond to take care of my home while I’m away. I truly trust him to do a fantastic job making sure Stanley is loved while I’m out of town. Would wholeheartedly recommend Scott”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow! this was my first time ever leaving my cat with someone, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kat was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and caring, and knowing she was there with Plum Jelly gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make Plum feel safe and to ease my anxiety about being away, which meant everything to me. I couldn’t recommend Kat more. She’s someone who genuinely cares, and that makes all the difference. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again and highly, highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter who will love your pet like their own, go above and beyond to make them feel safe, and give you total peace of mind while you’re away. 💛”


“Midory did a great job taking care of our cat. She followed all of our instructions and sent lots of cute pictures to keep us updated. Would definitely have her come drop in on our pets again!”


“Bonnie was an incredible last minute resource for a Christmas party staycation. She responded quickly, read over the house instructions thoroughly, and showed up in a timely manner. Great communication- we’ll definitely hire her again.”


“Once again, Casey made my holiday trav to visit my family possible and without worry. She is reliable, helpful and responsible and does an excellent job with my kitties. Highly recommended”


“Christopher was absolutely amazing! He played with our boy and sent us lots of pictures. He will be my first choice going forward! I cannot more highly recommend this guy!”


“Jourdan has been great so far. She has visited Penny twice and has already made progress with her. She also came to meet Penny with us after hours before our visits began to make sure knew Jourdan was ok. We appreciated that”


“Cleo is amazing! She took great care of the cats while we were in France and was very responsive (even with a crazy time change!) I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies 🥰”


About: I’m an upbeat guy who loves dogs. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their dogs when they have been busy. I work part-time as a freelance video editor and am looking to help out busy dog parents with walks or check ins in my spare time. My flexible schedule allows me to focus and provide quality, one-on-one care for your pup. I’ve watched and walked many dogs in Portland. I will get to know your pet and make sure they are in good care and that their needs are met.


“Kate is great. We have a dachshund puppy that has some separation anxiety and can be hesitant around new people. She has been very patient with him and it is so appreciated. She is very communicative and we know our boy is well taken care of with her.”


“Ivory was very communicative and made my first Rover experience easy! I really appreciated all of the daily pictures. I would definitely have Ivory watch Morty and Earl again!”


About: My specialty is small nervous dogs that require special care, but I also board/sit larger dogs. The important thing is I’ll follow your instructions precisely on how to care for YOUR dog, so when you’re reunited it’s like you never left! :) I work from home with a flexible schedule so I can prioritize your dog’s needs, whether they’re an early riser, require medication, regular exercise or anything else. I live down the street from a dog park. If you’re looking for house sitting I’m happy to do that as well, and will leave your place just as I found it!
