“Sunshine watched my dog three times during my visit to Portland and I highly recommend her. She was responsible, communicated very well, and we were able to work together so that I could explore some non-dog activities, while she kept my nervous-nelly well cared for.”
“Stefan has come for check-ins with Oscar several times and been a huge help to us. He clearly has a lot of experience with dogs and wasn’t frazzled by our puppy’s frantic energy. Definitely reach out to Stefan if you need your dog walked or if your dog needs a check-in!”
“Desiree looked after our cats for a few days while we were out of town and did a great job of keeping them happy. She was communicative and responsive. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Aimee did a great job on our last booking! I requested a last-minute drop in and she was able to accommodate no problem. I really enjoy working with her, she replies fast and is a great communicator.”
“Thanks Bandon for taking such great care of Diego and Sundancer. It's great to be able to take a long weekend without having to worry about our babies. We will definaitly contact you again when we need kitty care.”
“Johnny is always accommodating and helpful when coming in to check on our cat. It’s wonderful to have a sitter that is trustworthy and will go above and beyond when needed.”
“Beth did a great job caring for my cat! I appreciated the photos provided and the fact that my cat looked content in them. There were a couple small things like our back door being unlocked and litter not being thrown away, but I could have communicated better! I recommend Beth to anyone needing an attentive and caring cat sitter.”
“Kayla did a great job caring for my four cats while I was away! Will definitely book her again as she was professional, attentive to the cats needs/routines, and provided me timely updates.”
“Juliet was so great! Needle looked like he had so much fun with her. She was so flexible with my craziness and set up. I highly recommend trusting her with your fur babies!”
“Our Juni loves Stuart! She is a tiny high-need baby and I really appreciate the consistency, communication, and kindness he has shown to our (sometimes really annoying) baby puppy. Right now shes all teeth and little brains, and I'm glad we’ve had Stuart who we can trust in our home and to be kind and patient with our sweet girl. We hope to keep seeing Stuart through the different seasons of Juni’s development. Thanks so much, Stuart 💜”
“Evita was amazing!! This was our first time using rover and she made it a breeze. She was very accommodating to our cat, who can be quite anxious and have an attitude at times. We will be booking with Evita any time we need a pet sitter!!”
“Peter is so amazing! This was my first time hiring a cat sitter and I was a bit nervous about it, but Peter made the process so easy and took such good care of my babies while I was away. I am so grateful !! If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would”
“I have no hesitation in saying that Celeste is the ABSOLUTE BEST cat sitter on Rover. She would journey through Mordor to check on her furry charges - and that's exactly what she did during The Big Storm 2023. There were issues getting access to my kitties due to the apartment office being unavailable (because the storm), but she persisted and made sure they were taken care of. I know she was doing this for all of her clients during those days - that dedication and reliability is priceless. She is very communicative, which is so so so much appreciated given how anxious I was during all this storm mishigas. Also she takes the best pictures! It was clear that my cats were having a party when she stopped in. Plus she writes the absolute most thoughtful, sweetest updates post visit - like little kitty novels - and it's really lovely to read when you're away from home and maybe a little homesick. It's clear that she loves what she does and treats your pets like her own. 10 out of 10! Would (and will) recommend!”
“Laura was so accommodating and great to communicate with. My two doggies really have trouble meeting people and can be quite a handful. They warmed up (warm for them) faster and easier than with anyone outside of my husband and I. They were still quite a handful, but Laura handled it calmly and heroically. Im very happy to have found her and know she will be great for our dogs and just maybe we will be able to get a human only trip in this year.”
“Sydney is very easy to communicate with and she took great care of my cat Momo. I will absolutely be booking with her again when I’m out of town. My cat is very shy around strangers but she got her to open up in no time :)! Thank you Sydney!”
About: Both of our families have our childhood dogs in Denmark - and we miss them! We both love dogs. In Denmark we dog sittet through another site for a couple of years and Maria has regularly dog sittet two dogs for friends in Portland the last year. We love taking them for walks and spoiling them with snuggles! Our main goal while dog sitting is to provide a safe environment for your dog and give you peace of mind. We know we are taking care of your precious baby and that is how we are going to treat your dog. Maria is studying in Denmark and is working from home. Mads is working on-site every day but will contribute to dog sitting after work. We will have plenty of time to play with your dog! We live in an apartment in the Pearl District but we have a doggy lounge in the building and Fields Park is nearby. We want to take your dog on walks and if your dog wants to socialize with other dogs, there are plenty of playmates in the area.
“As a nervous cat mom, Yana made me feel very comfortable and was so attentive. I would highly recommend and will be rebooking if she’s available for our next out of town trip!”
“My kitty warmed up to Lori right away. She’s responsive, kind, and gave detailed and thoughtful updates that I really appreciated. An excellent pet guardian!”
“Midory is amazing!! This was my first time leaving my cat with someone we didn’t already know, and I felt so much comfort after her first visit. She sent so many great pictures and I could tell that my cat was happy, comfortable, and having fun!”
“Kate was responsive & transparent about her availability. She took the time to sit & pet our sweet fully-outside cat, which was so considerate & kind to do in the cold Portland fall.”
