“Christina is the absolute best at what she does and is so caring. She has been an absolute blessing for ourselves and our pupper Astro . Astro always lives his time with her and the other pups . This was the first time that we have ever had anyone watch Astro overnight. Christina made us feel so comfortable and honestly we didn’t worry at all . Thank you again”


“Megan was awesome. There was plenty coordination on the front-end to do an intro to make sure the visit would be successful. We got regular updates about our pup even over the holidays and some great pictures to share with our family. And she and her family will definitely be a keeper for future visits. Absolutely recommend!”



“I had never left my dogs with a stranger before and Natalie was great!! I got updates and pictures everyday, they were happy and well taken care of. Natalie made me feel like she really enjoyed having them and that really made us feel better. Thank you!!”


“Kaylee is a gem! My family and I were on vacation in Asheville and staying in a hotel, so we decided a Rover sitter would be a great option for our Min pin Huck. We found Kaylee on the app and she had amazing reviews. She didn’t disappoint and we felt very comfortable leaving our sweet guy in her care. She even met us at the hotel right on time to scoop him up for us! Lots of updates and pictures were shared. Thanks so much Kaylee!”


“Mala had a lovely stay with Alissa. Mala had a large, private, cozy space for rest and relaxation, which was perfect for this 15 year old girl. Alissa has a large property providing plenty of opportunities for Mala to explore outdoors. And, she was spoiled with homemade treats! Thank you for taking such good care of her, Alissa!”


“Craig was so great with our hyper, anxious dog! He sent regular updates and photos and was very flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. His own dog is so calm, and was so sweet with ours as well. I highly recommend Craig—your dog will be in very good hands with him!”


“Really appreciate Alex watching our pup for the night. He's doesn't get along with most other dogs, but Alex had no issue keeping him separated from her dogs and handled his care with experience and ease. Nice to know he was in good hands! Thank you!”

“Breanna has been an absolute lifesaver! Her flexibility was quite remarkable. But, on to the dogs— she’s like a dog whisperer lol. My very difficult and reactive dog took to her immediately and my senior dog was comfortable as well. My dogs were well cared for, no doubt about it. I will definitely use her again.”


“Eugene and Gale are amazing! They're very kind, friendly folks who truly love dogs. They took wonderful care of my dog, Fry -- they were thoughtful and attentive towards him, and they took care to make sure he felt comfortable in their home. I hope to have Fry stay with them again in the future!”


“Marissa was fantastic! She went above and beyond for our dogs and took such good care of them. She sent photos every day. She took them for walks and swims and gave them extra love and the best care. She was extremely responsive, and I would give her 10 stars if I could! I hope to use her again in the future!”


“Tonya took great care of our little dog, Key while we were away for the week. She sent us photos and updates. Our dog looked well taken care of when we picked him up. We are planning on bringing him back again when we go on vacation.”


“Colleen has a great approach to dog sitting. She spent lots of time playing outdoors and exposing Oakley to new adventures, which for him is great. She has a beautiful place with excellent opportunities for puppy adventures 🥰”


“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”


“Nathan was so good with my dog, Ella! I was in the planning stages of a tentative trip when I reached out to him and he really took the time to answer all my questions and even ask his own to ensure a successful stay for Ella. He was prompt, knowledgeable, and so kind in his communication from the planning stages, during Ella’s stay, to pick up. He has such a warm and calm demeanor that put both Ella and I at ease. At drop off, Ella and he were fast friends and he really took the time to get to know Ella and help make her feel welcome and comfortable. He sent regular updates and pictures the whole time so I never had to worry how she was doing. And she had an absolute blast! She’s not the easiest dog, she’s still working on a lot and has a ton of energy and he handled her impeccably. He mentioned he has experience with rescue dogs and that really shown through in his demeanor and connection with her. She felt safe and was her playful happy self when I picked her up. He was nice and organized and had her things in order and ready when I got there. He had given her a nice walk and some water right before knowing she had a decent car ride home. I was just so impressed. Will definitely be back. Cannot recommend Nathan enough!”


“It was wonderful to have peace of mind that my boys were being well cared for while I was away! Lots of updates and photos of my boys playing and having the time of their lives! Lots of room and space for them to play around and make new friends :) I can’t thank Lindsey and your boyfriend enough!!! 10/10 would highly recommend!”


“Caroline was wonderful! We're so happy we found a great dogsitter in Portland and are loking forward to rebooking with her the next time we're in town. She was prompt and professional in all her communication and sent us updates and pictures. We were a little nervous about leaving our dog, a 1-year-old Aussie mix, with a stranger, especially because she experiences separation anxiety, but Cisco warmed to Caroline quickly (I don't think she even noticed us leaving!). We also really appreciated Caroline inviting us in to her apartment, and her flexibility with drop-off and pickup times. When we picked up Cisco, Caroline let us know all the relevant information: how much Cisco ate, when she last went out, etc. Thanks again, Caroline!”


About: I have 3 years experience working in pet care professionally. I worked in a doggy daycare and boarding facility for 2 years. My previous job was working in a veterinarians office. I have a passion for animals and caring for them. I am currently in between jobs and I am excited by the prospect of looking after animals. I previously worked with animals in different capacities and would love to continue working in this field. I love to treat other peoples pets as if they are my own. I love to make pets feel as comfortable as possible in all spaces.
