“Very appreciative of Scott accepting my last minute booking. We reached out when we realized what we thought would be a shorter day trip was turning into an entire day outing. He stopped by and walked my German Shepherd and Jack Russell terrier. Fed them, gave them some love & attention and got their water refilled. He did a great job and sent me all of the communication and photos when he was checking in walking and checking out. I recommend Scott highly to anyone who needs help with pets!”

About: I love animals and currently have one 40lb pit terrier mix. My family is easy going on pet rules and treat animals as members of the family (no feeding from the table). We live in a pet friendly community with good lighting and many dog potty break stops and stations. Our house is 2 stories with space to put a crate in a secluded place for dogs who need quiet time. On weekends I would love to take them to dog parks (if they are comfortable with that) or on hikes (if they are people friendly). My husband (Gabe) is a stay at home parent and I work 4 days a week, we will be available for your animal's needs. Plus I love to take and send photos!
“We have never left our dogs alone and they seemed to be extremely stressed based on the mess that they left. Estrella did an amazing job caring for them and cleaning up. She exceeded my expectations and did an amazing job!”

About: I’ve always been a dog girl & for as long as i remember there has always been a dog in my house; truly the best feeling the relationship you can build with dogs. I am able to check in or even stay over night whenever , my schedule is pretty open with online school and only working friday nights and saturday nights from 4-9, besides that i can make time. I have a pretty big spacious house and a back yard that’s not closed all the way off with a fence but a pretty good open area , i will always make sure your pets feel loved and well taken care of.

About: Hi there! I am someone who genuinely loves animals and understands how important it is to find a sitter you can fully trust with your pet. Pets are part of our family! I approach pet sitting with patience, consistency, and communication with owners. I adapt my care style to match every pets personality and energy. I am comfortable working with younger pets who need calm guidance and stimulation as well as older seniors who may need a slower pace, extra patience, medication and low stress environment. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, I aim to provide the same level of care and attention I would want for my own animals! I have a very open and flexible schedule! Currently, I already have a dog I take care of weekly 1-2 times a week usually from 11AM-2PM weekdays. I currently have 2 cats at home and would not be able to take in pets but am more than willing to drive to take care of pets in the comfort of their own home! I take time to understand each pets needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, etc. I aim to create a low-stress, caring environment while treating your home with respect and keeping you updated with regular messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I have over 12 years of personal pet care experience from growing up with and caring for my own pets. As a full-time physical therapy student, I’m highly responsible, detail-oriented, and compassionate. I’ve cared for my own pets for years, including senior animals, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, grooming, and medication routines. My background gives me a special sensitivity to mobility and health needs, making me a calm, attentive sitter who treats pets like family. I’m currently a full time graduate student. As of right now, I am off for the summer and am available during most weekdays and weekends until the beginning of August 2026. I enjoy spending my free time staying active and caring for animals, so pet sitting is a natural and rewarding part of my weekend! I provide care in the client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions like medications or crate time. I always aim to keep pets happy, safe, and stress free while their owners are away.
“Ahnalisa is one of the best pet sitters I have ever hired. She did way more than I requested of her as far as caring for our pets, house and plants. My one cat is elderly, needs a pill twice a day, and is a picky eater. Zumbie has to have a different food every time he is fed. Ahnalisa even organized his food cans by flavor! My other cat stays in the utility room (sprays). He needs lots of play, brushing and petting. Jitters and Zumbie both were happy and healthy. They got lots of time with Ahnalisa and her son! The house was neater than when we left. She also cared for two llamas, watered our plants, got the mail and piled it neatly and took the garbage can down and back up our long driveway for garbage pickup. I would recommend Ahnalisa to anyone looking for a conscientious and caring sitter!”

About: What sets me apart from others is that I will spend quality time getting to know the pet and his/her individual needs. Building a trusting relationship with the animal is of the upmost importance. My weekly schedule will allow for me to be available to work providing pet care services 20-30 hours a week. Along with being reliable I am also willing to be flexible. Again, I get to know the animal and his/her needs while honoring the instructions and guidance from the owner. Establishing a solid, trusting relationship with the pet and its owner allows for a positive experience for all involved.
“Natalie is such an amazing sitter! We had to find a new sitter and she is wonderful. She cleaned up some messes one of our older cats made, ensured that their waters were clean, and loved on my cats. Keeping her info for the future!!”

About: Hi, my name is Siobhan (Shh-Von) I started recently caring for animals in a professional setting this year, but have had/cared for animals my whole life. Ask me for references, and I’d be happy to give them to you. I have experience for caring for all sizes and ages of dogs, cats, bunnies, small birds, and some experience with horses. I do work full time. I can check on your fur baby's after work in the evenings around 8pm, but I am also completely free Friday's and Saturday's! I have reliable transportation. I can come to you and your fur child when you need a check in, potty break, food, water, a walk, or overnight stay on Thursday nights or Friday nights.
“Olivander took excellent care of our two dogs when we were at work. The dogs were able to play outside, then chill inside and get some lovins. We will use Olivander again and would not hesitate to recommend him!”

About: I recently pet sit my coworker's great dane for about a week. She is a therapy dog and I had fun doing it! Took her on walks and made sure to follow up on feeding and potty breaks. My siblings also have their own pets and I love to spend time with them. I work part time, but I tend to be free most Sundays and Mondays. Happy to do some pet sitting or walks! Would love to find pets who need walking to keep up with my daily step goals ☺️ I can crate your pet if needed. I tend to care for pets in the places they feel most safe and comfortable. If they have specific routines, even better!
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.
About: My name is Anna, I'm 29 years old, and I love all animals. My favorites would be dogs and cats! They are worth having someone who cares about them to watch over them while their family is away, and I can provide that for them. I have had dogs and cats since I was a kid, as well as many experiences watching friends’ pets, so I have quite a bit of experience. Know that your own baby would be spoiled and taken amazing care of with me! I would so enjoy taking care of your dog(s). I have a friendly, playful dog who would love to have company at my house during doggy day care or boarding stays. I offer daycare and boarding in my apartment, and I also do pet sitting in your home, or drop in visits as needed. I am also available for dog walking. I’m currently taking college classes online, so my schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time to give your pets attention all throughout the day! I typically give tons of pets and cuddles if they want them, my priority is their comfort and happiness while they’re here. I live in a ground floor apartment with quick access to outside, so I can take your pup potty plenty of times easily. Dogs are allowed on furniture, they are part of the family while they’re here! I never leave them alone, if I have to leave (which is rare, I try to plan my errands around my dog schedule) I will take them with me in the car, or crate them, whatever works best for you and your dog! My own dog, Max, loves new and familiar dog friends coming over. He likes to play with other dogs, but he’s pretty gentle and mostly likes to play tug and fetch. He loves keeping other dogs company and just being their friend, so your dog won’t be lonely!
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for them. Growing up in a dog-loving family, I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and giving lots of love and attention. Dogs are truly my favorite animals because of their unique personalities, loyalty, and the joy they bring. I am comfortable with all different breeds and sizes! I am currently a part time hairstylist that works only a few days throughout the week. I am currently totally free Monday through Wednesday with time some Saturdays for visits. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet stays on their normal routine as closely as possible — including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I carefully follow all care instructions and make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure before leaving your home. For walks, I use secure leashing at all times and stay alert to our surroundings to keep your dog safe. I adjust the pace and distance based on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs. I avoid unsafe areas, extreme weather conditions, and interactions with unfamiliar dogs unless instructed otherwise. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own. You’ll always receive updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. 🐾

“Violet was great to work with! She was responsive, understood and completed the detailed feeding instructions, and kept me posted on a daily basis. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a friendly, reliable, sitter.”

Hillsboro dog parents share their Rover experiences
I highly recommend Emily. She took EXCELLENT care of my dog! He is blind and takes a couple daily medications and she was great with him, making sure he received his medicine and food on time. She gave him plenty of exercise, lots of play time, and most importantly, attention and love. She also sent lots of photos, which helped me feel confident that he was happy and taken care of while I was away. Emily even went above and beyond by providing extra visits when our flights home were delayed. It’s clear that Emily loves animals and wants them to have the best possible care. <3

Becky is very sweet and reliable. She was able to meet my dogs and quickly built rapport with my very shy little pup. It was only one week later and my shy baby was giving her kisses and not barking when she came to care for her. Becky sends me photos from the visit and regularly checks in. I appreciate her help with my grandma dog and the extra love and care she needs. Becky has been great and I am very thankful for her help!
