“Kris is absolutely the best sitter in Portland. He is communicative, he is honest and he is very giving towards your furbabies, he takes initiative to go above and beyond!”


“What a fantastic oasis for our pup! She had an amazing time here, was lovingly welcomed and well taken care of. We would have her stay again if we were in town longer. This family is fantastic and provides a wonderful environment for dogs. Thank you!”


“Great first-time experience. So appreciate Anastasia's calm and warm manner with my pup. It was great to know that she was in good hands while I was at work, staying cool and getting some social playtime too! Thank you!”


“Couldn’t have been happier with Tommy and the care he provided for Juniper. He’s very experienced and it shows. He sent pictures of junipers stay and other updates. Will definitely be booking more stays with Tommy.”


“Erica helped me and my pup Rosie out of a last minute bind. She was incredibly flexible, communicative, and patient while Rosie warmed up from her initial shyness. Thank you Erica!”


“Mae loved playing with the kittens and came home super relaxed! Would say that I also really appreciate Wayne working with her on her fears of hats. She’s been less reactive since they’ve met!”


“Cassie is really stellar! She is so communicative and has helped us get to know our dog so much. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to care for Otto 😊”


“Lisa & Brian are super nice, friendly people who kept our 3 pups for the day while we did some sightseeing on our way through Portland. They had great communication with us throughout the entire time, sent pics of the pups enjoying their yard and home. I would definitely use them again if I ever need a puppy daycare in Portland!”


“Nathaniel is a god sent. I’m so thankful we found him. Our Luci doesn’t like to be alone and gets bored easy. She is having so much fun. She goes 3 days a week, has other nice dogs to play with, gets lots of spoiling. She is pooped when she gets home. It’s perfect. Nathaniel is flexible and willing to keep Luci when need be and even gave her a bath today and cut her nails. I’m so thankful because Luci gets spayed tomorrow. I highly recommend Nathaniel and Michelle. I don’t worry at all when Luci is there. I know she is loved and treated like a princess.”


“Absolutely wonderful!! She was available on short notice when we had a cancellation, and then she was super kind, loving, and sent many pictures and video of my doggie even though she was only there for 4 hours. Absolutely amazing and will use her again!!”


“Asher loves going to daycare at Savannah’s! I totally trust her and know he’s well cared for and having so much fun when I’m working or out of town. 10/10 would recommend!!”


“She was great my doggo was very happy with and her family. It was super helpful thank you”


“We are really pleased with our dog’s first stay with Peter and Missy! We appreciated being able to meet them and their sweet dog, Gunner, prior to booking with them. Peter and Missy seem very caring, conscientious and knowledgeable about dog care. After our dog’s visit, we were pleasantly surprised to receive information about our dog’s activities (e.g. map showing where he went on a walk, at what time and distance) and loved the photos! We appreciated them taking such great care of our dog!”


“Matt is so lovely and took great care of Lima. She came home tired and happy. It can be overwhelming to choose someone on here to watch your dog, I’m very glad we found Matt. Thank you!”


“Maggie is the first sitter I used on Rover and I am definitely going to utilize her services again. She cares for each pet as if it were her own. My dog absolutely loved Maggie's spacious backyard.”


“Meagan, her family and their sweet labradoodle Fern were so awesome with Willow. Very grateful> She got lots of play time on their absolutely gorgeous and spacious property.”


About: I grew up with all kinds of animals - mice, bunnies, cats, dogs. As a preschool teacher we had a classroom guinea pig whose nails I would cut and cage I would clean out (when she wasn't at a students house for the weekend). As an adult I have had cats and dogs, and have fostered dogs and bunnies as well. I am a real estate broker in town so am self-employed and work from home which means my schedule is pretty flexible. My late cat used to take liquid medication and crushed medication orally so I can do that if your animal needs it as well. I'd love to meet your fur baby! I work from home as a local real estate broker and often am looking for ways to take a break from my laptop. Because I am self-employed my schedule is flexible overall. There are days of the week I go to other parts of the city to volunteer, so I might have flexibility in distance, but prefer to offer services close to home during the week to maintain some sort of routine myself. I am attentive and first check for the basic needs - litter boxes/bathroom breaks, water, then food. Afterwards I try and play with the animal I am checking in on for at least 15 minutes - some aren't always into it though. I take photos of the animals I check in on, and sometimes videos, and share those with the person of the household I have been in touch with. If an animal needs a little more time I am always willing to bring my laptop and hang out at the client's house for up to an hour or so if that would be helpful.

“Katie, Ava, and Puggy have been so great in helping Maisie overcome her dog shyness. I can’t recommend them enough. Katie truly understands dogs and your dog will absolutely love spending time with her and her family. As soon as she hears “Katie,” Maisie gets so excited to go see her friends!!”


“My dog seemed to really enjoy her stay! Sarah was very communicative before and during her stay and sent lovely updates <3 I would definitely book with Sarah again!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kid. Everything from house sitting to daily walks. I’m the trusted go to pet sitter for all of my friends and family! I hope to be yours as well ☺️ I have a 4 year old spunky Cavalier who is my best friend! We love to get out on daily walks and longer hikes on the weekends. We’d love to adventure with your pup and love them while you’re away! I currently work completely remote and am home all day to take care of any needs. We love our daily walks and lots of snuggles around here! I have a fully fenced backyard as well as a friendly pup to keep your fur baby company. I’m happy to use a crate as needed as well if that’s something your pup is comfortable with!
