Another wonderful stay! Elise has really bonded with our boy Leon who is VERY picky and shy. They had a great weekend together - came home to a cleaned house, and on top of that Elise was SO flexible and helpful when we had major flight delays getting home. She’s the best - highly recommend.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have been helping to care for them (walking, feeding, etc.) since I was around 10 years old. I’ve pet sit for many family friends throughout the years - dogs and cats alike. Recently I even housesat for 4 dogs and 2 cats all at the same time! My family dogs both recently passed away and I’ve been looking for something to fill the whole in my heart. Would love to take care of your pets! I am a freelance writer, musician, and retail associate, so I’m able to make my own schedule a lot of the time. I’m free during the day Monday-Thursday to walk your pooch or for drop-in visits, and I’m available after work on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (I typically get off around 3-5 pm). I can walk, feed, or house sit for your dogs or cats. Also just love spending time with them in general! Whatever you need, I’m here to help.

About: Hi, I’m Katie! I’ve owned and pet-sitted both dogs and cats all my life. I currently have one kitty named Joni at home, but have lots of past experience with pups. I’ve cared for pets who take meds and tend to be on the anxious side. I’m excited to spend time with your best friend(s)! I work full-time, but have a fairly flexible schedule and can accommodate working from home and breaks to check in on your pet. I’m generally free on evenings and weekends, as well. I’ll follow your lead to make our time together the most safe and comfortable experience possible for your pet. Feel free to set up a meet-and-greet beforehand to go over any special instructions.

About: Hello! My name is Erin! I live on the Portland peninsula and have for five years. I have always loved animals both on land and in the ocean. Growing up, I constantly had dogs and cats in my household and volunteered to pet sit the neighborhood animals. In my eyes, dogs are family members and they deserve love and respect! I would love this opportunity to get some exercise and meet new dogs! In my free time, I love to ski, hike, bike, and read. I am available during the week for walks or drop ins. Occasionally I will be open to dog sitting or cat sitting opportunities as well. I am a caring person who will treat your pet with respect and kindness! We will spend some time outside and go for long walks or hang out in the park.

Jay stayed with my dog Lucy while I went on a business trip across the country and she was so wonderful with my sweet old girl. She was very curious about Lucy’s needs and communicated with me and shared some pictures along the way. I came home to a happy dog and I’m so grateful to Jay for taking such good care of her!

Ashton was a great sitter for our dog and cat while we traveled out of town for a few days. My dog can be a bit anxious so it’s always a bit nerve wrecking leaving her with someone else but Ashton was up for the challenge and my anxious girl warmed right up to her. She even made an extra trip over during the day when my dog was having a little bit of a panic moment. Will definitely use her again!

Margot was happy and healthy when we returned and Megan was communicative with photos throughout the stay. So happy we booked Megan!

Bret accepted our short notice booking and stopped by for a meet & greet before we headed out for a weekend trip, which was great. Our pets are currently pretty low maintenance but it was important for us to have someone stay the weekend while we had some R&R. We’d have Bret back on a future vacation.

We were so at peace leaving our dogs and home to Erin while we went away. The dogs bonded with her instantly which made for smooth transition when leaving and returning. She gave our dogs lots of love and adapted to each of their personalities - would recommend!

Elise did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs while we were away for a week. We have anxious pups that warmed up to her really quickly. When one of them wasn’t feeling the best Elise did a great job taking extra care of her and keeping us informed. And as a bonus, our house is super clean, we can barely tell someone was here. We highly recommend Elise as a sitter, and are super thankful to have found her!

Sarah was great with Oliver, a dog that can be a little defensive and territorial. She was able to "read" him and gave him space when he needed it. She was flexible in terms of her time and handled all of the pesky details well. She was friendly and kind, and communicated with me consistently while I was away. I would definitely have her sit my dog again in the future.

Fischer was amazing! He was super communicative throughout the process, which was awesome because this was our first Rover booking. He arrived early and even came over earlier in the week to meet our dog and get to know our house/ routines. In addition, he sent us regular updates so that we knew Bailey was safe and happy. We’ll most definitely be working with Fischer again!

This was my first time using Rover, I was a little nervous but Miranda put my mind totally at ease. She was friendly, professional, and easy to work with. My dog took to her right away. She sent updates throughout the weekend and my house was spotless. I would highly recommend her and would absolutely re-hire her. Thank you!

I had a family emergency, and Heather went above and beyond to care for my cat Rasmo. I can't thank her enough for continuing to extend her time with him, and for her wonderful care. Normally when I get home Rasmo is always a little bit skinnier (a picky eater who knows well how to bend me to his will). This time he is as nicely dense as when I left him. Heather was responsive to questions and gave me lots of pix and videos of a very contented cat . I'm incredibly grateful to her and would not hesitate to hire her again - though hopefully for a more fun time away next time!

Carly went above and beyond taking care of my potbelly pig, Notta. She sent daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Mini pigs are unusual pets with big personalities, and Carly took the time to really get to know Notta and make sure she felt comfortable and happy. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Carly to anyone looking for a caring, patient, and attentive pet sitter.
