“Molly took great care of Luca during her drop in visits. She noticed that Luca was feeling lonely without her human family. In addition she would bring in any packages that were delivered.”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs from ages 4 months to 12 years! I like to learn each animals needs and modify my care for them! I work three days a week and keep an open schedule to care for others’ animals the other four days in the week! I have a flexible schedule and can even help on the days I am scheduled at my main job! I always ask for your preferences for your animals! Whether this includes walk length, treats and food, and even mannerisms, I always want to make sure YOU and your animals are comfortable!
About: I have had dogs since I was 3 years old. Currently do not have a dog of my own but still dog sit for my mom when she goes out of town or comes visits me. Have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes and puppies. Young professional in seasonal type job. My work is currently in the slow season so have plenty of time for dogs/puppies. I also have all my weekends available to puppy sit. I live in an apartment but there are plenty of walking trails and parks nearby. I also have plenty of time off and no weekend commitments so I can stay at your home so the pups are more comfortable.
“Tayla was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was taken care of when we were out of town! She spent extra time and attention to make sure that our cat was comfortable and eating after a fire alarm went off. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I have taken care of, and been around dogs, pretty much my whole life. As an adult I have experience with leash/dog reactive dogs, super high energy puppies, done overnights for dogs with separation anxiety. I also have experience training my own dogs and really enjoy it. I am stay at home mom with both my kids in school so I have free time especially in the mornings after school drop off. I am very careful with other people's property. There should be no signs that I've in your home except for well loved, exercised and happy pets.
About: I've always loved dogs of all sizes and I've been lucky enough to grow up around them. For fifteen years, I have walked, cared for, fed, trained and loved on as many dogs as I could. Whether they're cuddly or prefer their own space, want to play fetch for hours, or simply want a sniff filled walk in the park, I've enjoyed every moment of fur filled love and play. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from Saint Bernards and German Shepherds all the way to Pomeranians, Jack Russel Terriers, and all sizes in between. I have lots of experience with walking large and small dogs, whether they be amazing on a leash or like to pull you around at full strength and speed. I also have lots of experience reading canine body language, working with territorial or dog selective pups, even with anxious or high energy pups. I have a very flexible schedule and often I am available on short notice for walks, drop-ins, or short (1-2 nights) overnight stays. Whether your pup just needs a walk while you're at work or they need a friend for a few hours to play and feed them, I will always do my best to be available. I currently only do pet sitting in your pup's home environment, however I find this helps make all dogs much more comfortable when their favorite humans aren't around. I do have a large and very friendly dog of my own, Harley, who would happily join for a playdate if your pup would like a new friend. I will always do my best to take care of your pup just like you do and make them feel safe, loved, and happy.
“Louise was amazing! My dog loved her and she was always communicating with me and keeping me updated on his status. I would definitely recommend her and would love for her to watch Walter again!”
“Evita is the best! my cat is sweet but a crazy little lady and Evita keeps her fed and loved when I have to leave town. Thank you Evita for always taking care of my chunky fuzzball! Marcie loves you!”
“Michelle was amazing and so attentive to our kitties! She gave us wonderful updates (pics/videos) the entire time and was very kind. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a kind, helpful, and professional person to take care of their cats while they are away!”
“Rachel is the best!! This was my first time leaving my cat since getting him and I was so anxious beforehand but she did such a great job!! Never once did she forget to check in and give me the best overall summary of how my cat was doing, I was only gone a few days but I was never worried. She takes wonderful pictures of playtime and will always make sure to keep you updated how your pet is doing while you are away. Extremely professional would 100% book her again!!”
“So grateful to have found Elizabeth on Rover! She was incredibly attentive, understanding, and caring with my puppy ! and truly worked magic with her! My dog is usually very shy and scared around new people, but by the end of her stay with Elizabeth and her kids, she looked so happy and confident. I couldn't be more thankful! Elizabeth also sent me regular updates and lots of adorable photos, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving and trustworthy to care for their pet! :)”
“Lucinda is the best of the best! My kitty immediately fell in love with her. We will absolutely be checking her availability first before anyone else. Thank you so much for your care and attention. She really is as great as everyone says!”
About: I have a 4 year old excitable spaniel of my own who certainly keeps my life exciting! I have always lived with dogs and can’t imagine it any other way. But I also love cats! Nearly all my friends have cats and I have lots of experience pet-sitting for many of them. I love spending time around animals and would love to take care of yours! I have a full-time 8-5 job, but do have flexibility within my week. I wfh at least one day a week - sometimes more. Evenings and weekends are usually super open for me! But feel free to reach out about availability as my schedule fluctuates often. I have a small fenced yard with space for your pup to potty and run. I also have a friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. I have a crate that can be used if your pup likes a place to settle. My furniture is my dogs furniture and it would be the same for your furry friend too! I also have an animal loving roommate - so double the love.
About: Hiya! I’m a newer resident of the Portland area with a longtime background of caring for pets of friends and family hoping to fill a need in you and your pet’s lives. I love going on longer walks/excursions with dogs but also love just spending time in the neighborhood. I’m currently a part time post grad student looking to do some pet care during the day on weekdays, I can do weekends but mostly I’m looking for people wanting and needing pet time during their day to day work schedules when they can’t get home. I’m hoping to be as seamless into your life and schedule as possible. That means being in your house minimally, keeping you updated on times but not too buggy, keeping pets watered, and being in and out.
“I Highly recommend Adriana .. I’ve booked with her several times and she’s always quick to respond and is amazing with my dog. She sends fun photos of walks and playtime which is so reassuring when I have to be away. 🩷”
“Our kitties warmed up to Nadtakan fast, and she took great care of them while we were away. I appreciated her attention to detail and reliability, and would like to connect again for future trips!”
“Everyone in our household is thrilled to meet Chloe. She is kind, thoughtful, and super smart. We are confident that she is a great caregiver for all pets!”
About: I can create a fun and safe environment for pets and show them love while the owners are away. I love all dogs and cats !! I would like to take care of pets on the weekends! I work full time during the week and would love to watch during my free time! I have a fenced yard and I currently live in an home with no current pets! I would perfer the dog to be crate trained, however it is not required!
“Shannon was great! Super on time, followed instructions perfectly and added great notes and pictures to ensure we knew all of our fur kids were happy and safe.”
Forest Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Adriana once again exceeded our expectations with the care of our beloved old boy Cheese. She was very attentive and very communicative the entire week we were away. Not once did we feel as if we were not able to reach out; Adriana was always on top of her messages and was always a text or phone call away. Our Cheesy boy was very happy and it almost seems like he didn’t even miss us with how much attention Adriana gave him!! Will ALWAYS book with Adriana moving forward.
Elizabeth was so great with our girl! We were worried about leaving her at home for the first time in a new place, but Elizabeth did our meet and greet and Kira took to her immediately. She’s very communicative and sent lots of pics throughout our trip. 10/10 would recommend to anyone with fur babies.
Louise has been absolutely exceptional with Amani. She is caring, reliable, patient, and truly goes above and beyond. Amani is always happy, playful, and comfortable around her, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. I really appreciate the attention, care, and energy she puts into every visit. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats Amani like her own. I highly recommend Louise to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing to care for their pet.
Crystal was amazing! She met my boys for the first time and they loved her! I would feel so comfortable and confident with her watching them. I had a last minute schedule change and she was so accommodating to my schedule! Highly recommend and cannot wait for her to come back!
Madison is super communicative and sends lots of pics of my kitty playing and relaxing, which is incredibly appreciated! She even let me know she had to put some plastic away because my little gremlin kept trying to eat it for some reason. I always feel reassured knowing Madison is checking in on my cat while I'm away. Thanks Madison!
Chloe has done overnight dogsitting with Moose, and we plan to have her stay with him again this summer, so we booked a walk just so they can stay acquainted with each other! Chloe followed the plan we set in advance and everything went well! Thanks for taking him for a potty break and feeding his afternoon snack!
Michelle was amazing and so attentive to our kitties! She gave us wonderful updates (pics/videos) the entire time and was very kind. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a kind, helpful, and professional person to take care of their cats while they are away!
Maegan did an excellent job taking care of our cat, White Sox! White Sox was so happy and calm whenever Maegan spent time with her. Maegan also helped keep our place very tidy, and her attention to detail was outstanding. We are very selective when choosing a sitter, and Maegan exceeded our expectations. We truly hope she can take care of White Sox every time we’re out of town.
