Dog Sitting Happy Valley

“Kat is always eager to help to check in on my cat Hank, and is very timely and communicative. It's a great feeling to know that I can rely on her when I'm out of town.”

Matt H.

“Ashley did a great job with our two kitties. She popped over to our house prior to our trip to meet the kitties and know her way around the house. We appreciated the daily updates and photos, as well as cleaning up the messes the kids had made. Any concerns we had were taken care of. Thank you Ashley!”

About: Animals have always been my first love! I grew up in a house with a minimum of 2 big dogs at all times and now have my own golden retriever and pitbull/heeler shelter mix. I’ve volunteered with dogs at the Humane Society, rescued farm animals at a variety of animal sanctuaries, and love animals enough to have gotten a degree in Animal Law. I promise to care for your pets with the same love and kindness I do my own. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so am happy to pop in and check on your pet or get them out for a walk during the work day. Safety and trust are truly the most important things to me. I’ve used Rover before to find care for my dog and know how scary it can be to trust someone with someone as important as your pet. I’m extremely committed to listening to you and your pet’s needs, asking any follow up questions needed, and communicating with you throughout the whole process.

About: Hello, I'm Taylee, a long-time pet owner with a passion for making new friends and providing quality pet care! Whether it's taking your companion for a walk, tossing a chuck-it, using indoor toys, or just making sure they have familiar company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, happy, and safe. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I strive to create a stress-free environment where pets can feel comfortable and enjoy their time while you're away. I'm currently putting all my focus into this - so my schedule is quite flexible! I primarily travel via public transit which can limit short notice availability. When caring for pets in my client's home, I treat it with the same respect I’d show my own. I ensure pets are safe by securing doors, gates, and any areas they shouldn't access. I prioritize keeping their space clean, feeding them on time, and providing regular walks or play sessions based on their usual habits. I also send photo updates and communicate often to reassure pet parents that their furry family members are in good hands. Unfortunately I am unable to provide care in my personal home.

About: I've been passionate about animal care ever since I started my first pet-sitting business at 15. I still remember my first clients: A family with an older cat and a family with two pomeranian puppies. While I love dogs and can take care of them, my specialty is feline friends! I absolutely love cats in all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I'm there if your cat wants a long-term babysitter relationship or just a friendly person to fill the bowl and respect their need for personal space. I'm so excited to be getting back into the animal care business in Portland, Oregon! I'll be available for work after July 30th, 2024. Feel free to contact me any time if you think we may be a good match! In Seattle, I am available on Fridays and weekends. Once I move to Portland, my schedule is wide open for animal care. However, I may need to add some restrictions as I get settled into my new home and look at other work to supplement my income. I will be sure to update my schedule as appropriate. Feel free to communicate with me as your needs change as well! So much of my care is based on the animal themselves. My cat Betty is super playful and affectionate, so I make sure to schedule out play time for us every day. Some animals just want affection and cuddles, which I'm also happy to provide. Some of my more aloof customers prefer to be left alone, and I always respect their space. My number one priority for all animals is that they are comfortable and safe during my time with them.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since middle school for friends and family, and have grown up with dogs for my entire life. Throughout college, I was a member of an animal rescue philanthropy organization, and spent every Monday morning walking the pups at the shelter, so I am very familiar with all types of pups! Currently, I have a 9 year old Mini Aussie who is the cutest pup with loads of anxiety and daily meds so I know how to handle skiddish babies and medication administration! Additionally, I had a senior Chihuahua back home in Texas that took daily meds, so I am experienced in senior care as well. Looking forward to meeting new furry friends! I have a relaxed presence and try to make every interaction with fur babies special! I’m currently available for drop-in’s and walks before and after I work (9-5) Monday through Thursday. My job is flexible so I have some leeway for those times during the work week. I don’t work Friday through Sunday so I have full availability and flexibility those days! I am available for early morning or late evening times for any services if that works best for your pet’s schedule. I currently do not do overnight sitting. I am a very attentive pet sitter, and am very observant of the needs of my furry clients! I prioritize the safety of the pet in everything I do, whether that’s something small like ensuring that their water bowl is never empty, or something bigger like giving important medication on a consistent schedule. I always follow the pet’s cues to ensure that they feel safe and comfortable around me!

“Johnna provided excellent care for my three cats, Ole, Oskar and Ozzy. Excellent communication, punctual and responsible. Don't hesitate to book her to care for your pet!”

“Kaylee was amazing! She spent time with our kitties, played with them, fed them, and even gave them treats that her cat didn’t love. She was a clear communicator and reliable! We’d have her watch our cats any time!”

Phylicia C.

“I had another fantastic experience with Sequoia! I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with my cats when I’m away and will definitely be booking again for my next trips! Thank you!”

Olivia C.

“Natalie did an amazing job caring for my cat. She was right on time for each visit and very communicative. I felt completely reassured that my cat was in good hands and I plan to continue having Natalie watch her in the future.”

Jake N.

“We rebooked Lea because we were so happy with her care and communication when she watched Aria. She sends tons of pictures and her Rover Cards are always thorough and fun to read. She is responsible and loves animals. We feel extremely comforted when Lea is dropping in on our puppy. She’s always on time and follows care instructions exactly.”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little kid. I’ve fed, bathed, medicated and walked many breeds, large and small. I’ve also been the proud pet parent of several breeds, and I really understand who they are. I try my best to give the type of care each personality requires! I have a schedule that allows me to be available with flexibility. I’m even available for weekends and holidays, but do not provide overnight care. I have a real eye for detail, and would love to make your pet feel comfortable at your home with the instructions you provide. I can never be a replacement for their humans, but will always try to give them the best comfort they can receive while they wait for their loved ones to come home.

About: You and your pet can always look forward to scenic walks, adventures in the car, extensive play time, and even longer snuggle time! My lifelong experience with animals aids me in creating the perfect pet sitting experience for you and your pet. I've cared for many unique animals from senior to special needs, and have learned how to cater to their exact needs. I'm thrilled to get to know you and your pet! I am usually available seven days of every week for over night stays. I am located in Southeast Portland and am not currently employed elsewhere, so my pet care schedule is very flexible. I do my best to follow your pet's usual and familiar schedule in order to make them comfortable and meet their needs. I try my absolute best to fully meet and protect your pet’s desires and will not put them in any situation that is potentially dangerous or out of their comfort zone. My relationship with animals comes out of respect and I nurture their trust on my end.

About: We have been pet sitting for over 12 years and have been lucky enough to own, foster, and dog sit many amazing warm little souls. We are highly experienced with deaf and disabled dogs requiring mobility devices as well. We have 2 fenced in yards (front and back). One yard is specifically a dog fun park with artificial grass, playground wood chips, a couple large rocks for dogs to stand on. Your dog will have unlimited access to outside with constant supervision. The house is well suited for your furry friend and they are welcome in all spaces in the house. We aren't afraid of accidents in the house, and have plenty of natures miracle dog cleaner on hand :). We will be loving and kind to your dog at all times. Dogs are welcome on all sofas and beds in our house. We currently 2 small dogs. Reading dog language and hearing all your dogs needs is something we find pride in. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend!! Margo is a at-home artist and Joleen works from home full time at home. We are twin sisters who own our home together, so you get 2 sitters for the price of 1! We are always home and rarely are away at the same time, so your dog will always have a human by their side. We have 2 fenced in yards at our house. One yard is a garden and the other is what we call “the dog park” that we created and catered to dogs needs with turf, play ground wood chips, toys and much more. Both yards are fully dog friends and your dog will be able to explore both. We believe dogs should be able to go outside whenever they want so they will have unlimited access with constant supervision. We have 3 stair steps to access the house, if your dog has mobility issues, let us know and we will put up our dog ramp so your dog will not need to use the stairs. Dogs are welcome on all sofas, chairs and beds. We are easily able to separate dogs during feeding if that something your dog needs.

“Jayne took great care of the critters! I really appreciate all the photos documenting all she did and the time she took to let the cat know it wasn't forgotten. Experience with chickens is a definite plus. I recommend Jayne for my neighbors and will happily call her again.”

“Followed my instructions. Quick to respond. Pleasant person. 😊”

About: Hello! I love all animals of any form. I believe all animals deserve patience to get to know someone. I’m not afraid to be nipped a little to earn their trust. My style of pet sitting is matching the pet! I understand some animals prefer just lounging around and playing with toys inside, while others love running outside and going on long walks! I have fun doing both. In my lifetime, I’ve owned 4 dogs, 2 cats and 2 hamsters. I’ve done pet sitting for the past three years to make extra income for school. Trying out the Rover app to see if I can schedule more work! I currently am at work / school from M-F 12pm-5pm but don’t let this deter you! My office is pet friendly and I can bring along your pet with me (I request that they are potty trained). I’ll be free to pet sit at home / at your place out of office hours! There’s a little bit of flexibility in here, please reach out. I currently have no uncaged pets roaming around the house. Other than that, our house is free for your furry friend to roam with a two dog parks nearby. For housesitting, I follow all rules listed! If there are no rules, I’d let you know what my plans will be for the day! I always update with photos and videos, every 2-4 hours. You can also call me anytime I’m with your pet and see how they’re doing live. :)

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young child. We always had pets growing up, and I adored being apart of the care taking process. I began to care for pets professionally around the age of 15 and have absolutely adored it. The pets I have watched have always loved spending time with me, and we quickly become friends. I make an effort to ensure that every pet receives the love and care they need when their humans are away! I take pride in ensuring that I learn about each pets individual needs and personality so that I may provide them with excellent care. I work in a research lab from ~10:30-7:00 pm m-f! Therefor, I have limited availability during the week. However, I am free most weekends! I live at home with my wife and two cats, and love getting to know new pets! My goal here is to just make some extra cash, and so I will be focusing on drop in visits! I can feed and play with pets, as well as clean up after them and give oral medications! I care for pets in a clients home! While in their home, I always make sure to respect the pet and their space. I know that it is their home, and I ensure that they still remain comfortable and happy! I build trust with each pet at their own pace, and ensure that they understand they are safe in their space. I never do anything to make them feel uncomfortable or unsafe in their environment! I make sure to have an open line of communication with owners and communicate any concerns promptly!

About: Hey there - I'm a dog lover through and through. And each dog I meet knows it immediately. While I've only ever owned a small dog, I've enjoyed sitting for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. When they're happy (and tired!), I'm happy! I'm currently working part-time, so I have lots of availability for walks during the afternoon or evening. I'm also available to walk your dogs on weekends. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions from their owner. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re away. I also provide updates so owners know their pet is happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of attention.
