“Denise did a great job! Biscuit was happy when we picked her up. She took Biscuit for walks and recorded them. Biscuit was comfortable enough to take a nap. I also appreciate the good day care price. We will use her again.”


“Valerie has a great space for the dogs and really worked well with my shy mini-Aussie! Will be coming back and know that Winnie will have a great time :)”

“Joel & his wife were wonderful. We dropped our old lady blind pup Gouda with them, so we xoukd explore Eugene and areas for the day. They took us at the last minute and gave us great and kind service!”

“Claire was patient and kind with our younger rescue dog, Quince, who can get stressed in new environments. Our senior dog, Duncan, seemed to do great. We appreciated the pictures of their day and were happy they were comfortable enough to settle in for a snooze. Their home seemed warm and inviting with plenty of comfy spaces to cuddle up. Claire had some good insight for future visits, and we hope to be able to have our boys in her care in the near future.”

“Joshua took our 5 month old puppy on very short notice which was a HUGE help to us! He sent pictures while she was with them and updated us as well. We will use his dog sitting services again next time we're in town!”

“What a great experience. We needed a last minute day care and based on reviews we chose Sabrina and Derrick. They were thorough asking questions to be sure Skippy was a good fit. Their yard is perfect for dog play and the dogs are also allowed inside. They are obviously experienced with dogs and they are really kind, gentle people. I highly recommend them. Skippy was very relaxed and came back happy.”

About: I value a pet’s quality of life more than anything else! In my life I have successfully cared for and loved many pets, great and small, young and old. It would be my honor to care for your pet and provide your peace of mind while you’re away. I have a very social, 60lb Ibizan/red heeler mix fixed dog who lives at the house full time. Ghost is friendly, kind, and excellent company for any nervous pets who prefer companionship. I am at home full time and attend to my own dog’s needs throughout the day. I’d be happy to welcome your pet into our gentle and consistent routines. Guaranteed happiness and comfort! I am a person who thrives on routine and structure, and usually pets do too, so my home environment is very mellow and consistent. Your pet will feel secure knowing I’m reliable with those treats, walks, and anything else they might need! My neighborhood is quiet and has sidewalks for safe walks, but I also have a fully fenced backyard preferable for zoomies.

About: I worked in Veterinary medicine as a CVT for 15 years. I’m now in real estate so I have the experience but am able to work from home and spend hours with animals that need special care & medications (whether orally, injectable or topically). I am comfortable with most farm animals as well. My rates are based off of pets that need that extra care/ medications etc. Depending on their needs (or ease of care) my rates can be flexible! Just ask and we can discuss your/your pets needs to figure it out I am available for walks or drop ins most days but for boarding (my house or yours), I am available Wednesdays and Thursdays and every other weekend. Because I can work from home your animals don’t have to be lonely while you’re away! I am active, healthy and smoke free. I love walking dogs, running them at the park, playing chase or tug a war or whatever shenanigans your pet loves. I’ve raised goats, chickens and pigs and have some experience with cows and horses. I have helped with reptiles and birds too.. As having worked in day practice and emergency medicine I have a wide knowledge and experiences with various medical needs, diseases and behaviors. I pay close attention to body language and want to make your time away as stress free and reassured as possible. I am happy to help with house needs during the stay as well such as watering plants, getting the mail, taking out the trash, etc.
“Maple Bacon had the most wonderful stay with Mattea and her pups! I was nervous to leave Maple somewhere new but she sent soo many updates to reassure me. Maple can't wait to stay with her again!”


“Hoppy is a bit of a handful and is always up to something, he seems to enjoy the small groups of dogs Michelly places him with and he comes home tired, so I know he's been playing all day. I highly recommend.”

“So glad we went with Alisa. She was very personable and Bug seemed to be taken care of. I appreciated the pictures and updates during our dog’s stay. It put my mind at ease. Would definitely use Alisa again!”

“Jojo was well taken care by Jan and her grandchildren. Having them there was a real plus. Jojo loves kids. I would definitely use Jan again if we ever needed a dog sitter again in the Eugene area!”
“Ruby had a great time with Derrick! She got to meet other dogs and played all day, resulting in a happy, sleep puppy on the way home. Derrick was incredibly communicative and sent me lots of pictures, which of course I enjoyed! I hope to be able to book with him in the future!”

“My dogs were happy and healthy every time I picked them up, which is the most important factor. Diane was communicative, friendly, flexible, and accommodating. I appreciated her going out of her way to treat me and my dogs well.”

“Emma was a very wonderful sitter and so conscientious to our dog’s needs. She was communicative with us to let us know he was in good hands. We look forward to having her watch our dog again”

“Heather loves our pup like he was her own! Our pup is showered with love, attention and gets 2 walks while at Heathers house for doggy day care! I appreciate she’s been very accommodating to any rules/ behavior things we’ve been focusing on and continues to reinforce what we’re working on. I feel so comfortable leaving our pup in Heather’s loving care and I’m so thankful we found her!”

About: Hi there! My journey in professional animal care began early, shadowing my mother in her animal behavior and care business. I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of species—including dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, cattle, goats, and rabbits—which shaped my understanding of how to meet animals where they are: emotionally, behaviorally, and physically. While I am not a licensed dog trainer, I’ve spent much of my life developing a thoughtful, intuitive approach to animal care. My professional background includes extensive training in wildlife handling and care techniques. During college, I volunteered at the Cascades Raptor Center in Eugene, assisting with the daily care and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet care for friends and family, building trust through reliability, compassion, and a deep respect for each animal’s unique needs. Now, I’m excited to offer my experience and dedication to the local community. I’m Fear Free Certified for dogs, and while I’m not certified for cats or other animals, I apply many of the same principles across species: 🧘♀️ Creating low-stress environments 🐾 Respecting boundaries and body language 🛏️ Offering comfort, routine, and enrichment 🐕🦺 Using gentle handling and positive reinforcement In 2024, I worked with shelter animals at Greenhill Humane Society, where I received extensive behavioral training and advanced to independently care for dogs and support enrichment for cats. That experience helped me develop a deep understanding of animal behavior, stress signals, and how to build trust with pets from all backgrounds. What I offer: 🐶🐱 Drop-in visits, walks, feeding, litter care & medication support 🧶 Enrichment activities tailored to your pet’s personality 📸 Daily updates with photos and notes 🐾 Experience with seniors, shy pets, and those with special needs Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I bring calm energy, reliable care, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Thank you for considering me — as someone who has also used Rover for my own pets, I know it can be daunting to find the perfect fit for your furbabies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or extended overnight care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs without the constraints of a traditional 9–5 job. Because I’m home-based, I can offer: 🐕 Timely potty breaks and walks 🐈 Calm, low-stress drop-ins for cats and small pets 🐾 Flexible scheduling for last-minute requests Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or more involved care, I’m able to integrate it seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I currently do not offer in-home boarding, but I provide personalized care in your pet’s own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it's a quick drop-in, a longer visit, or multiple check-ins throughout the day, I tailor each session to your pet’s routine and emotional needs. Because I work from home, my schedule is flexible—I can accommodate midday visits, early mornings, or evening care depending on your pet’s habits. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience by respecting their space, reading their body language, and offering enrichment that suits their personality. Your pet gets: 🐾 Familiar surroundings and routines 🧘♀️ Low-stress care with gentle handling 🐕 Walks, playtime, feeding & medication support 📸 Updates so you stay connected I treat every visit as a chance to build trust and make your pet’s day better. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I’m here to meet them where they are.
Cal Young dog parents share their Rover experiences
Claire was patient and kind with our younger rescue dog, Quince, who can get stressed in new environments. Our senior dog, Duncan, seemed to do great. We appreciated the pictures of their day and were happy they were comfortable enough to settle in for a snooze. Their home seemed warm and inviting with plenty of comfy spaces to cuddle up. Claire had some good insight for future visits, and we hope to be able to have our boys in her care in the near future.

Madyson kept Penny in her home while I needed to be away all day. I liked that I was able to see the walk they went on and some photos of Penny during the day. I appreciated how communicative Madyson has been about this day of daycare and about our upcoming boarding. I feel that my shy little dog will be well cared for while I'm out of town.

Traveling in from Colorado I was delighted to find such good care for my 5 month old puppy during an Oregon football game. Not only did my puppy receive great care, but I received an update on her zoomies around the yard mid-game. Very happy my pup was so well looked after.

I wasn't sure how Harley would like going to stay with a dog sitter. He had so much fun with Ann and her dog that he was thrilled the next day when we went back. She sent lots of pictures and took him on long walks. He had blast! I highly recommend Ann and so does Harley! Thank you Ann!

All positives! Great location - large fenced yard and adjacent to walking path. Caitlin was easy and prompt to communicate with electronically and super-nice to interact with in person. And most importantly, you can tell she loves animals and I could tell my from my dog’s behavior that she was well cared for.

McKenna watched lucky while we attended U of Os graduation. She asked all the right questions on Luckys care and she treated him like a king. He’s an older boy and when we picked him up he was well rested. Sometimes the stress of not being with his humans causes him not to eat but he ate two meals with McKenna!

My first time using Rover and my #1 criteria was to find a daycare situation which matched or closely resembled my dog's living situation...which is just him and I...no other pets, kids or too many people. Noemi was a PERFECT match😁 We did a meet and greet the previous day which went very well. My dog is a senior but I knew if he felt relaxed he would most likely sleep much of the day aside from his joy at going on walks...which is what happened. Also my schedule was not exact per se so I greatly appreciated Noemi being flexible in that context. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Noemi and would happily hire her again.
