“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”

“Marybeth was a great host! She communicated very well and provided daily updates/pictures. She was also very flexible with our travel plans. I’ll be keeping her top of mind for future boarding.”


“So grateful that we were able to book Peter to watch Timber and Willow. After meeting Peter I was very comfortable with the booking. Peter provided status updates and photos throughout the stay. At pickup time though the dogs were happy to see me, they seemed sad to have to leave. I highly recommend Peter and will definitely use his services next time we are in the area.”

“Leslie’s home was a great Home away from home for our dog! She provided lots of care, updates, and home made treats. Our dog was completely comfortable in her home, which has a large fenced in backyard and lots of places to rest and snuggle!”

“Tommy is caring and loving, and you'll be getting a lot of updates from him. His price is amazing, and I thought it was too good to be true at first, but he exceeded every single one of my expectations. Will definitely bring my babies back the next time I'm out of town”

“Taro had a wonder time at their home. I call it his lil spa day cause he doesn't have a backyard at home. Maria is very accommodating and a delight to have stayed with.”

“Mariah did a great job. She sent me photos of Harper getting comfortable at her house and updates consistently throughout Harper's stay. Mariah even went above and beyond boiling chicken and rice to mix with Harper's dog food when it appeared she wasn't eating. Excellent dog sitter.”

They are “PRO” Also Hanna was very easy to communicate with! She sent me lots of pictures and it made me relieve. if you’re planning on enrolling the puppy in daycare problem for solicitation, this is the best place too, your puppy can play with friendly dogs and have a chance to meet with their beautiful baby. I’ll book again as long as this beautiful family is in this business!”

“Keelan and Sabrina took great care of our pup Nelson when we were out of town for a long weekend. We planned a meet and greet so Nelson could meet their dogs in advance of boarding and after that went smoothly, they confirmed the booking. They were easy to communicate with, gave plenty of updates and shared pictures each day. We would happily leave Nelson with them again.”

“Tammy was an exceptional dog sitter for our dog, Rusty. Rusty is very anxious and often struggles with meeting new people. Within the first day, it was clear that Tammy quickly earned his trust and love. We felt at ease during our trip that he was well cared for and happy. We appreciated her daily updates. 100% would recommend.”

“Emily was wonderful! She did a meet-up prior to our pup’s stay to ask questions and become familiar with our senior dog. She provided pictures throughout the stay and even trimmed my pup’s nails because she is a trained vet tech, and it’s been so difficult for me to get her in for an appointment. I would definitely recommend Emily because I will be rebooking her again for my next vacation!”

“This was our first time using somebody from Rover and we had a wonderful experience! It was quite obvious that our golden was very well cared for while we were away. The couple caring for our dog were attentive, very responsive when we would message to check in and provided us with pictures daily. We will definitely utilize their services again! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Winston!”

“Marisela was accommodating, communicative, flexible and took great care of Philo. We had multiple changes to our booking but she was so understanding. We would love for her to watch Philo again. I highly recommend Marisela!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dunthorpe
My dog Nellie had the best time with Lauren! Nellie was spoiled with lots of play time and trips to the park, and I felt extremely comfortable and confident leaving her in Lauren’s care. I received lots of updates and Lauren was patient with all of Nellie’s quirks. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience! He communicated really well, was flexible with small changes to timing, and was so kind and understanding when our dog had a little nervous accident right when we arrived. We felt very comfortable leaving our girl in his care and would absolutely recommend him to others. Thank you for being so kind and accommodating! 😊

Marybeth was amazing with my dog Wendy! My dog can be a little nervous with new people but I could tell from the pictures I received that she was having so much fun at Marybeth’s house. Marybeth was great at sending me updates and communicating. I would definitely recommend!

Melanie and Jeremy took care of Una while we were in Portland, and this was our second time having her stay with them. They were easy to communicate with and Una was comfortable and settled when we picked her up. We appreciated knowing she was safe and cared for while we were away. Thank you both for taking care of Una!! ♥️

Very responsive and helpful. We needed a sitter on short notice to house our dogs overnight so we could attend a concert we came to Portland for. Laura was quick to respond, easy to work with. Laura has a great set up. Tall, private fence for the back yard. She was very caring and attentive to the pups. Sent us some great pictures in the evening and morning. We are so grateful for getting a night out together. If/when we come back through Portland, we will look up Laura again.

Rena was absolutely amazing with Mavis! We are so pleased with the level of love and care she received from both Rena and her partner. Rena gave us updates and sent us photos every day. Her communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away without worry. This was honestly the best dog sitting experience we have ever had. If I could give more than five stars I would. :)

Tom and his partner are amazing, responsive, and caring. My dog was so excited to see them again, and she left their home in such a great mood. They always listen to my dog’s specific needs (meds, behavior) and take great intentional care of her. Would highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Dunthorpe home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Dunthorpe.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Dunthorpe sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
