“Shaelyn is a positive, friendly, capable person! She definitely spent a lot of valuable time with our kitty, which is what we wanted! Photos and messages were often, making me feel very comfortable with our cat’s care and emotional well being!”

“Shannon was great with our 5-month-old Border Collie puppies for a 3-day house/dog sit. They are a handful, and both dogs and house were in great shape, upon our return. Shannon is punctual and a solid communicator. Highly recommended.”


“Anthea is a cat whisper. My kitten took to her immediately and my anxiety ridden kitty stayed mellow and calm during the whole stay. She is dedicated to her charges and communicates in detail and quickly. Will leave my two fur babies with her anytime.”
“Two words. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. "I had such a wonderful experience with Steele! One of the highlights was receiving daily photo updates—it was the best part of my day and really put my mind at ease. It was so clear from the pictures that my dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I returned home to very relaxed Finnegan and Lucy. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Steele again!"”

“Leaving Dash for so long I couldn’t imagine who could love in him. Makayla loved my boop while I took a break from life in a far off land. Thank you for leaving the place so clean too! Well done.”

“Amy is the kind of sitter you hope to find: she's communicative, caring, flexible, and reliable. She stayed at our house, caring for our three pets for several days. We got great updates, and returned to a spotless house. We highly recommend Amy!”

“Thank you so much for the care for our senior cats, our chickens, rabbits, and home. Our home was so well cared for and clean, and thanks again for the delicious treat you left us! I would definitely recommend Felicia to anyone looking for a pet/house sitter.”
“Janexis and Zach were wonderful with helping take care of my reactive and anxious pit mix, Minnie. They sent just the right amount of updates, and she looked so happy and at home with each picture! They kept me at ease the entire time. They were also flexible when I needed to extend their care, and left my place cleaner than I left for them! I will definitely use them to care for my pup in the future.”

“Peyton was fantastic! He stayed at my home and took amazing care of my dogs. It gave me incredible peace of mind to know that they were taken care of while I was away. My dogs were clearly happy and comfortable with him and the house was clean! Ragnar was sad to see him leave! Peyton was reliable, communicative and thoughtful sending updates every day with pictures! I would absolutely trust Peyton to watch my dogs again and highly recommend him for others!”
“Peter is Fantastic! He was thorough in asking about my pets needs, as well as following requests and a schedule to ensure they got the right amount of exercise and care. He stayed at the house so it was comforting he was there with them the duration of the time he was caring for them. He sent detailed summaries of the day with pictures each evening. I would absolutely work with Peter again!”

“Kelly did great watching my boys for me! Very communicative, and sent me plenty of pictures while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies for you, and I will 100% be reaching out to her if I need help again in the future!”

“Heidi did a fantastic job watching our two dogs and home. When we returned home both dogs were happy and relaxed. She even watered the garden! I highly recommend Heidi for your dog needs.”

“Vicky, was amazing! This was the first time we left our pets alone with anyone outside of family and she made the decision stress free. She met with us the day prior to discuss what was expected and I immediately felt comfortable with her. She asked questions and was genuinely interested in making sure are pets and home were taking care of. Her updates while we were away made our trip worry free as we knew our fur babies were in good hands. Even our cat who normally hides from strangers was comfortable with her! We will definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Amy has the perfect temperament and disposition for this role. She came on time and was willing to stay for as long as we needed (we were flying home). Her calm and even-keeled demeanor was perfect for caring for our dog. Additionally, she is personable and great at maintaining communication with the owner. Would most definitely rebook with her. Recommend 10/10”

“Allison was the absolute sweetest! I felt so comfortable having her stay at our house and care for our two dogs. She checked in with adorable photos several times over the weekend, the house was just as we left it, and I could tell she just really loved being with our dogs which is the best feeling. Would book again in a heartbeat!”

“Madison stayed in my home for 2 nights. She was very good about sending a picture each day to show me my dog was ok and content. She seems very kind and trustworthy. My home was as clean as when I left and I felt my dog was well taken care of. I no doubt would want to have her pet sit again.”

“Lyla did an incredible job! She gave me updates and was flexible with my crazy schedule. Overall she brought a lot of peace while I was out of town. Just knowing that my dog was so well taken care of. Thank you Lyla!”


“Heather was so friendly and professional. She took great care of my pup, Frankie, and sent me updates throughout her stay. I enjoyed my weekend away knowing that Frankie was safe and well-cared for.”

About: Hi! I have so much love for all different types of animals from reptiles and rodents to dogs and cats. Big or small, young or old. Reactive pups aren’t a problem. All animals will be provided with wonderful care and love as if they were my own. I’m a Work from home mom so just text me and we’ll try to work something out that works out for you. My books are open. I have two big dogs of my own that are my life. Every animal will be treated as my own. No animal is too tough.
About: I’ve been pet/housesitting for the majority of my life! Growing up I was relied on heavily by many. I was consistently approached by family, friends, and neighbors. There were quite a few people that had me as their go-to whenever they needed the help and I made a strong connection with. I always get excited when people ask me to petsit for them! On top of that, I’ve done a lot of volunteer work at animal shelters, including dog walking, cleaning, and playing. I’m currently a SPED Educational Assistant, 8am-3:30pm every weekday at a school in Portland. Anytime around that I am free and willing, but I understand if that is too large a gap in the days as far as house sitting goes. Otherwise, my weekends are entirely free, as well as my summer break! I will accommodate to whatever needs must be met for your pet! I want to make sure your fur baby is completely safe, comfortable and happy with me. Every animal is different and I love to make space for them and learn about what they like, dislike, need, as well as their quirks and personalities. Connection and trust is very important to me.
Carter Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Michelle was absolutely incredible. I was away for 10 days visiting my mom because of her illness, and knowing Paco was so well cared for gave me real peace of mind during an emotional time. She sent pictures and videos every day and on the last day of the booking she even stayed late to make sure I had landed safely back in Portland before leaving Paco alone. When I returned, my apartment was immaculately clean and Paco was happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would definitely rebook Michelle and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and thoughtful sitter.

This is the second time I’ve used Marks services and he did another amazing job caring for our 13 year old cat. Our cat is generally shy and timid but Mark was able to get him out of his shell and took care of his every need while we’re out of town. He made sure to play with him, let him outside and fed him on his regular schedule. Mark is an excellent pet sitter that I would recommend to anyone.

Peyton is the BEST. I feel so lucky to have found him for my dogs. It gives me such peace of mind to know that my dogs are with someone they genuinely enjoy. Peyton gives them love, attention, cuddles and plenty of play time! He also provides pictures and updates for me! It’s so nice to come home to a clean house and happy dogs! Thank you Peyton!!!
Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our two doggies while we were away. She was very companionate to our dogs especially when they unexpectedly got sick. She picked up needed medicine from our vet and administered it, she prepared special food so doggies could get better faster, etc. She was very communicative and left the house in a very clean state. We will definitely work with Ashley again. Would highly recommend!

We used to live in Oregon and Roree was Aspens favorite person, so on our little trip back to the area we knew just who to call to watch Aspen for the weekend! Roree always sends pictures and updates and you can just see the excitement in Aspens eyes in every pic. She is a 100/10 dog sitter and has so much care and attention for your furry friend☺️ thanks for everything Roree!

Martha was fantastic! She house sat for our dog Georgie and our 3 kitties. Our 13 year old kitty needs a number of medications and special diet instructions and Georgie also needs medications, and Martha handled everything with ease. She took Georgie on daily walks and played with her in our yard when it wasn't raining. She sent daily updates and pictures, and was very communicative. There were a few small things for the house we asked her to do (like roll our garbage bins) which we were very grateful she did. She left our house just the way we left it, and you would have never known someone was staying with us. Our pets were so at ease when we got home because she spent so much time with them during our trip. We highly recommend Martha!

Madelyn was seriously amazing with my dog, Tuna 🥹 This was my first time ever leaving him with someone, and I was honestly really nervous, but she made me feel so comfortable the entire time. She sent me tons of pictures and updates, and he looked like he was having the best day ever. I didn’t feel worried at all while he was with her. I was even late picking him up, and she was super understanding and kind about it. Tuna came home completely tired out from all the fun 😂 I would absolutely trust her with him again and definitely recommend her!!

Two words. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. "I had such a wonderful experience with Steele! One of the highlights was receiving daily photo updates—it was the best part of my day and really put my mind at ease. It was so clear from the pictures that my dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I returned home to very relaxed Finnegan and Lucy. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Steele again!"

Madison is truly amazing! I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about our experiences with her! She again took such incredible care of my four fur babies, and it gave us so much peace of mind while I was away. Each of them has their own personality and needs, and she handled everything with so much attention, patience, and genuine care. I’m someone who finds it really hard to trust others with my pets, so leaving them is never easy for me. But with her, I truly had zero worries. She always kept us updated, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and treated them like they were her own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and all-around amazing pet sitter!

Rosalyn did a couple overnight stays and daily sitting of our pets. She took great care of them, and the pets all liked her (even our scaredy boy cat felt comfortable enough to come out with her at the house). She was easy to communicate with and sent pics of each pet daily for us. We hope to utilize Rosalyn for pet sitting again!
