“Chardonay was fantastic and our dog Harley absolutely loved them! We already set up another sit, so we highly recommend working with her. Harley has some specifically reactivity needs, and we felt at ease with Chardonay watching her. She kept us updated and sent lots of dog pics throughout the sit too.”

“Shannon went above and beyond taking care of our two dogs and cat while we were away for two weeks. She left our apartment immaculate and we came home to happy, relaxed pets. She sent us pictures and updates and was very responsive. She even figured out our fancy litter box when it jammed. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again!”

“Chelsea was amazing! She took great care of my dog and 2 cats and provided daily updates with photos. I felt very comfortable with her and my pets clearly loved her as well. She stayed several nights at my house and gave everyone lots of love! I will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“William has a very calm, patient energy that put our anxious little dog at ease almost immediately. He was very communicative before and throughout the dogsitting stay, and we were so happy knowing that our pet was comfortable snuggling with him at home. Thank you!!”

“Scott was wonderful! He did a great job taking care of our pets and home while we were away. He tried multiple methods to give our cat her medicine and was patient and caring throughout. He also made sure our dog got regular walks and plenty of attention. He was respectful, tidy, and left the house very clean. Communication was great and we really appreciated how reliable he was. Highly recommend!”

“Helen is so sweet and trustworthy! Our pup had never stayed with anyone before, so we were anxious but she immediately put our mind at ease. Our house looks cleaner than we left it and our pup looks happy. We’re so grateful! Thank you so much Helen!!”

“I just moved back to Portland and was looking for a house sitter for my sweet little old lady, Pearl, and had a few upcoming trips planned. Danny was very communicative, always prompt and was more than willing to help with an unexpected medical need. Pearl was well taken care of and I'll happily work with Danny again.”

“Can’t say enough about you! Thanks for loving my sweet boy and for keeping me updated throughout my trips with pics. Not just that but you always go the extra mile…changing the sheets & leaving my place spotless. Arriving after a midnight flight to fresh sheets feels so nice.”

“Imani took excellent care of our dog and home for a weekend stay. She sent helpful updates and photos, and we came back to a very happy and tired pup, and a clean home. We will absolutely book with Imani again!”

“Kayla was fantastic! We received constant updates and could really tell our pup and home were loved and taken care of. I highly recommend Kayla, and will be using her services in the future.”

“Jasper and Jaydon took wonderful care of Muffin and my house! They were responsive, professional, and so kind and conscientious. I would recommend them to anyone!”

“Robert does a wonderful job caring for my dogs while I’m away. I get photos while I’m gone and when I get home it’s like I never left. They get lots of cuddles and play time too!”

“Shelly was an absolutely fantastic sitter during a 9 day stay with our reactive dog! She not only gained our dog’s trust quickly, but ours too. It was such a relief to have someone who understood and was empathetic to all of our quirky routines to help make our dog happier and more calm. Shelly was communicative, attentive, checked in daily with adorable photos, and left our place clean and tidy. We can’t wait to have Shelly stay with our girl, Lily, again.”

“Maxwell stayed with my huge dog for a week and, as usual, was incredible, reliable, communicative about everything, quick to respond, flexible, understanding, and most importantly, so very wonderful to my dog :) She stayed through a storm and I was able to not worry at all about him. 10/10”

“Cody did an incredible job at taking care of our cat and our apartment—he sent updates (and pictures) as well so i knew that Bug was well taken care of. it provided me a lot of ease of mind while we were away for two weeks. we will definitely be using him again in the future! thank you Cody!!”


“Jen was fantastic. She met my little one a few weeks before and they hit it off. They had walks and snuggles and when I came home, Pumbaa, was happy! Jen stayed overnight and you wouldn’t even know she was there. Everything was exactly the way we left it. Thank you Jen! We will be using your services again!”

“Baeli was great! Both of my senior girls take medications and Baeli had no problem administering everything. She sent daily pictures and updates, which I really appreciated! One of my pups is a very picky eater and Baeli didn’t mind offering different snacks or sitting with my girl to try to get her to ate. I came home to happy pups and a clean house! :] Thank you, Baeli!”

“Anna is exceptional. Extremely conscientious and an excellent communicator. She is doing what she loves. I will absolutely be using Anna more and can’t recommend her highly enough.”

“Madz was great with my pets! I received multiple photo updates each day and the pets warmed up to Madz quickly. One of my dogs needed medications while I was away and I was a bit nervous about it, but Madz was able to administer without any issues. Happy to book with them again!”

Eliot pet parents share their Rover experiences
First time working with my girls and they had a blast. I was very appreciative of Lee’s attention to detail with my girls’ care, updates on how they were doing, and multiple pictures throughout the house sitting timeframe. Definitely going to work with Lee again!

Savannah did a fantastic job as our pet sitter. She took such great care of our Great Dane, Lulu, and our cat, Prince, and it was clear they were in good hands the entire time. Her communication was outstanding, and we really appreciated the regular updates and photos. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy, healthy pets. Savannah went above and beyond to be helpful and attentive to our pets. We will absolutely book with her again!

Barbara watched our pets for five nights. She was communicative and sent great photos with updates. She even dealt with a home repair issue and I’m pretty sure our home was cleaner when we returned home! She made sure our pets were taken care of when we had an evening return home, which we really appreciated! Our pets were so calm and happy when we returned home 🙂

Elizabeth was a delight to work with! She took such good care of our fur baby, and I’d highly recommend her for anyone looking for overnight care of their kitty. She left the house in pristine condition, as clean as when we left it (if not cleaner!) She washed all of the towels and bedding she used and put everything back where it went. Our kitty seemed so happy and well cared for when we got home, and during our trip as well! We received lots of pictures and updates, and she spent so much quality time with our kitty! She was communicate and open to feedback, and we will definitely be using her again in the future!

Maria was amazing. I have never felt so much at ease leaving our boys with anyone before. She sent the cutest videos and photos of them together. They seemed very happy and bonded with her. Not only was she wonderful and caring with our dogs, but she's also a wonderful human. She was great to communicate with and left our home so clean and well cared for. We will definitely book another stay, knowing how loved and cared for our little guys were with her. We will definitely book another stay, knowing how loved and cared for our little guys were with her when we were away.

Susan has been dog sitting and weekly walking my 2 pit bulls for a couple of years now. She has been so wonderful with my girls. She genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and is very communicative about how they’re doing and giving updates. My dogs require daily medication and she gladly gave it to them without issue. My dogs are also a bit difficult to walk as they pull and are dog reactive. Susan took it all in stride. She has recently moved away and I am so sad that I won’t be able to continue having her help with my dogs. They are always happy and have clearly been well cared for when I return. Susan is extremely professional and naturally inclined with animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care! Thank you, Susan, for everything.
