About: I love dogs and I can handle any size: big or small or anywhere in between. I went through a dog obedience training with my dog who was a fox terrier. As well as took the Rover training course and I think I did very well on it. I can do long walks and short walks, in the city or in the country, morning or evening on most days. I did have to pick up a full time job, so I'm available weekends, with weekdays on a as needed basis. So I'll need all information before booking. I've always enjoy working with and watching animals. My home is currently not an environment that I'm comfortable bringing your pet into. I have roommates and not a completely fenced yard. I'm more than willing to spend time with and work around your animals comfort. I have found keeping to what they are used to makes for a happier furry family member.
About: I’ve seen all kinds of shenanigans while caring for pets and give special attention as needed, including administering meds through syringe, pills cleverly placed in cheese or food, companionship and present time, play time, feeding pet pigs in a manner that avoids food battles and many more! I’m up for it all and have the freedom to watch your lil loves while you are away so let me know if you have any questions. Happy to answer them for you. I’m available for housesitting on weekends and during the week (with enough heads up!) so give me the dates you plan to skip outta town for and I’ll let you know if I’m available to meet, greet and watch your little furbabies / reptiles / pets of all sorts. I take the occasional camping trip and flight to see my long distance boyfriend, otherwise, let’s coordinate the details! I’m happy to follow any house rules you set for when I come to house it and pet sit for you and your loved pets.
About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.

About: I just moved to Portland and I work remotely so I can definitely spend time with any pets I care for! Growing up my family always had pets and I loved taking care of them! My family currently has one dog and anytime I go back to Southern California to visit I love hanging out with her. Throughout my life I've always been the one to call for pet sitting when neighbors and friends go away on vacation. I really love taking care of their dogs and cats while they're away. Along with helping my friends and family take care of their pets I've also worked at a pet supply store where I interacted with animals daily. Before moving to Portland I lived in Bend where I had a good amount of repeat pet sitting gigs and I loved them like they were my own. Before moving to Oregon I lived in San Francisco for about 12 years. While living in San Francisco I volunteered with the SPCA which was definitely a great experience! I've always loved animals and I feel like I am just happier around them :D I currently work from home so I can spend all day everyday with the pets I care for! I love going on walks throughout the week and my work schedule is flexible so I can take your pet out anytime :) I follow all rules your pet currently has so it doesn’t disrupt their daily routine. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable while in my care.
About: Hello! My name is Allison, and I have decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, puppies, birds, hamsters, and farm animals. I grew up in a family that owned multiple pet stores, which gave me hands-on experience with animal care from a young age. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet will be in safe, loving hands with me and will get plenty of attention, care, and cuddles! 🤎 I’m currently available full-time, including weekdays and weekends 😊 I’m home most of the day, so pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and time to play or relax. I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine, but otherwise they’re welcome to roam the house and enjoy time in the backyard. I’m flexible and always try to follow each pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home! 🐾 I have a fully fenced in large backyard that your pet can explore! My house has plenty of space for your pet to stretch out and make themselves feel at home. I also live near a large dog park!
About: I have a wide range of experience, from dogs and cats to exotic animals including amphibians and reptiles. Ive done farmwork and can care for other livetock while you're on vacation as well! I love spending time with animals of all kinds and have about 8 years of experience. I have a very flexible schedule to provide frequent potty breaks, come over at priority times for walks, and make sure your animals are getting what they need! I usually do three major potty breaks and two long walks a day unless otherwise requested. Two meals unless otherwise specified! Im flexible to the needs of your pets
About: I love cats and dogs, and grew up with large dogs. I walk and run a LOT so dogs usually love being taken care of by me. Cats feel special as I make sure to give them love if they want it, otherwise they have food, clean water, and a clean litter box every day! Pets tend to really like me and although I'm not a professional dog trainer, I know how to encourage positive behavior. I'm super responsible and reliable, and I have been asked to house sit numerous times since I'm also really clean and quiet and take very good care of people's homes. I'm currently working part-time so I have a flexible schedule. 9a until evening. And I am available on the weekends. If I stay at the house, that can happen any time during the week. I have been entrusted to care for many homes and cherished pets, and do so with great care! I'm very clean, quiet, and responsible. I love being able to take dogs for walks and to be able to give cats attention or at least fresh food!
“I rebooked Malissa and was not disappointed. I rebooked her for walks not a housesitting this time and I found my dog happy. She also sent me pictures and was on time for the walks. I trust her completely and already rebooked her for the end of July housesitting.”
About: I have experience with small dogs, big dogs, crazy cats and shy cats. I know each animal has a different way of life. I take into consideration all of their favors and sensitivities. I want each animal to feel loved and as comfortable as possible while they are away from their parents. I mostly have open availability. I usually only work at night for about five hours for about only three days a week. I have a pretty flexible schedule and if you contact me, we can work something out! I live in an apartment. I have a small backyard with no fence. I have a park nearby where I can walk dogs. I am also willing to come to the animals home and care for them there as well.
About: Being raised on a small farm, there have always been cats & dogs around to share in the ups & downs of life. I love leaning into each individual's personality and working with positive reenforcement to catch the animals doing good behavior! I have experience training/working with dogs of all ages. Sometimes our furry friends need extra care. I am experienced in oral medicine administration, wound care, ear & eye treatments (if need be)! I am available for pet care on a daily basis. I care for my cats & dog daily. If ever I need backup support, I have a network of folks willing to lend a hand. When pet sitting, I follow the instructions given by the owner regarding when to feed, how much food, how often they need to go outside. Beyond that, I typically tidy up the space every evening, sweeping/vacuuming, refreshing waters, etc. I try to develop a routine so that the animals know what to expect and can relax into a sense of order. I generally find ways that each animal likes to play and find games that are fun and rewarding.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10. I grew up with many dogs, cats, even chickens. I grew up with four different corgis as well as a yellow lab & various cats. I’ve pet sit for numerous friends, families, colleagues, and neighbors throughout my entire life. I’ve dog walked at the Oregon Humane society as a teenager mostly walking pit bulls which have a special place in my heart. Ive pet sit all kinds of cats & I’ve worked with almost all kinds of dogs, as little as a chihuahua and big as a Saint Bernard. Animals are 100% innocent & they need to be protected, loved, & guided. It means so much to me to be able to do that. So many Animals feel joy so easily & naturally & they bring me joy in the same way. Animals are really a huge importance to me & are creatures who truly love unconditionally. I believe animals have an inner life we can’t comprehend from our own human viewpoints & understanding of consciousness. But In my experience at least, they have souls, big emotions, big hearts, and can be deeply in tune with humans and others energy and needs. They communicate with us in various ways all the time. They communicate they’re listening, need you, love you, or express joy or any emotion, or even communicate on behalf of other humans or animals. Some animals will be service to humans or rescue us even as a complete stranger. We’re all creatures & I see us as equals because we all exist in this world together-separately but together. As a former teacher, one of the most significant things I learned is how important play and physical activity is to well being-it helps us physically & thus mentally & emotionally, this applies to both animals during play time & walk time-as well as animal caregivers! Playing & walking are super rewarding & beneficial to my overall health & it’s a never ending circle because I get super happy seeing dogs joyful while out in nature & on their walks. I’m helping them be happy & healthy & they’re helping me be happy & healthy! Cuddles & physical touch varies depending on animals needs but overall pets love & benefit greatly from physical affection & humans do too Availability does change month to month especially with more regular clients who snag up dates quicker so best to plan out a stay a week or two in advance. However I definitely accept same day/week bookings as well! Just depends on the week/my calendar so feel free to always ask! If you’re seeking more regular care that is always welcomed! I’d prefer to ultimately have more regular clients with longer stays but open to all Caring for your pets in my home isn’t an option at the moment but I am fully capable and happy to care for your pets in your home. It’s important clients know that in my care pets will be sure to get plenty of water, be fed, have plenty of walks, potty breaks, baths, as well as given cuddles medication or any other specific needs, they are going to be met. The house will be well secured whether we are away on a walk or it’s an overnight stay. Respect of others space is important to me & only designated areas & items will be used. I have experience Housesitting with and without animals so if special requests such as watering plants, taking out garbage, or special pet/house care-anything, I’m open to that so don’t hesitate to ask.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Deer Island. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
