“Emily took great care of our two dogs while we were away for the day. She sent photos and updates, took them for a nice walk, and spent time playing with them. They had a great day!”
“Tay's stay with our two pups went beautifully. Happy dogs and happy us. So glad she could help us for an afternoon while we headed out for an extended adventure while we were visiting Bend.”
“Couldn't have picked a better person to be our puppies pal for our 20 days away. We didn't have to worry at all! The pups were very happy and healthy when we got home. Kyle is clean and and very concientious individual and we already set up for our next jaunt with him. Thanks Kyle.”
“Skye was such a great communicator, keeping us update to date with photos. The pups were not even that excited about our return, which tells me they were very well attended to! We will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: Hello! 🐾🦴 My name is Clare (she/her). I am an experienced dog trainer and care-giver, and I am excited to be available for house sitting as well all of your other pet-related needs. Feel free to reach out if you’re looking for some dog help! 🐶 I work at a school, so I have plenty of time during the summer to be with your pup (whether that means playing with them, helping with training, taking them to the park with my dog, or cuddling on the couch).🏡 I provide individualized and engaged care for dogs of all ages. I have experience house and dog sitting (not through Rover), and I make it a priority to respect your property and your furry friend.
“Amy is fantastic! She took great care of our dog and cat while we were traveling for 12 days. We came home to two happy fur babies and a clean and well taken care of house. She is very communicative and responsible and kept us updated with photos while we were gone. Thank you, Amy!!”
About: I live an active lifestyle that involves going on walks and hikes around the beautiful Columbia Gorge. I grew up with dogs around the house and would love to take care of yours! I can provide the following services; walks, med administration, poop patrol, and expert belly rubs. Currently I am a graduate student that works from home so I am avalible on the days that I do not go to classes. With this flexible schedule, it should be easy for me to fit you and your pet during the week. I have indoor cats that I love and care for. Therefore, I will not be able bring any dog or another cat into my home.
About: I have trained puppies to be mobility service dogs from when they were eight weeks old to two years old. I have also lived with dogs for the past 17 years. I am highly proficient in training basic skills (sit, down, stay, heel) and well-versed in positive reinforcement and praise-based training methods. I also have experience with exercising dogs both physically and through mental enrichment. I am currently working a Wednesday to Sunday schedule and am generally available after 5 pm on those days. I have much more daytime availability Mondays and Tuesdays. I am happy to find appropriate walks for your pets of all ages and abilities in the area. I will make sure to meet your pet's physical and mental needs and communicate clearly and effectively.
“Another great house/dog sitting booking with Kim! My dog had some tummy issues and a paw hotspot on Kim's first day. She was super communicative and took care of my dog! He returned to his full self quickly and clearly loved the outdoor adventures Kim took him on.”
“What a pleasure it was to go away knowing my little man was in good hands. Mariela did a great job taking care of our Chihuahua,Bear, which at first is no easy task, but she mastered it. I would highly recommend Mariela and will use her services again in the future without hesitation. Wonderful job, everyone was happy. Thank you.”
About: I love pets!!! If there is any training you are working on with your pup, I will do my best to follow any guidelines given. I need to be taken on walks just as much as your dog does, so you can count on them getting exercise every day :) I love taking them outside to play! I’m home a lot, but I also love hiking and other various outdoor activities. Your dog will come home very happy! I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. No pets or kids, no rat poison and an electric lid on the trashcan. I can crate them as long as you provide the crate, and if they’re well behaved I can leave them out at night/ if I leave the house.

“Katie is a wonderful sitter, would highly recommend! We arrived home to happy pets and a thoughtfully cared for space. She did a great job making our pets feel comfortable with her. Her communication is friendly and prompt. Would definitely book again!”
“Tara was great! She took time to come meet Virginia and see the house pre sit, which put me at ease as I find discussing everything in person is more impactful than messaging back and forth. Tara left our home in perfect condition and Virginia was well taken care for. We would ask Tara to sit again in the future.”
About: I have over 15 years experience with pet sitting and I have had dogs my whole life, so I love dogs! I worked at a veterinary clinic for almost three years. I assisted with appointments but mostly took care of the all animal boarding for long periods of time. I have worked with almost every kind of dog/cat you can think of. I am also comfortable with administering medicines and caring for injured pets. I have a car so I can easily transport your pet as well for time at the river or hikes. I absolutely love animals and love being outside as well, so the two go hand in hand perfectly! I have a very flexible schedule right now and am a morning person! I love cuddling and showing animals love, it's my favorite thing! :) I do not have the ability to have pets in my home right now but will happily host them in yours, where they are more comfortable.

Hood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Tara is fantastic! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away for 10 days. We came home to two happy, well-loved pets and a clean, tidy home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, we would absolutely book with her again!
Another great house/dog sitting booking with Kim! My dog had some tummy issues and a paw hotspot on Kim's first day. She was super communicative and took care of my dog! He returned to his full self quickly and clearly loved the outdoor adventures Kim took him on.
Once again Kyle has impressed us with his caring ability to our pups and our home. He left the place as tidy if not better than when we left. We truly appreciate his caring attitude, and his love of animals, kindness, his cleanliness and his willingness to go over and beyond his normal duties.Not once did we worry about our fur babies which let us enjoy ourselves with family. Better book him if he's available. We have a couple more trips and we are going to definitely use him again!
Available on short notice. First time sitting my boy so he was nervous to be left with a stranger and worked himself up to vomiting (always at least a day 1 hunger strike to be expected from him). Mia informed me immediately and kept me updated, which I appreciate.
Ellen was a wonderful pet sitter for Miko. She met Miko a few times before our sit dates, so Miko could feel comfortable with her and Ellen could understand her special needs. Ellen left the house in pristine condition and took great care of Miko. All in all it was a great experience for everyone and Miko was a happy pup. Would highly recommend Ellen as she is kind, thoughtful and was attentive to all details and our needs.
