“Lajetta is an exceptional caretaker. She is intuitive, warm, thoughtful and communicative. I would recommend her to anyone! My doggy was so well loved and cared for during his stay with Lajetta!”
“Peter is the BEST!! We've left our little one with him several times and she comes back happy and tired. Since he only takes one dog at a time we don't have to worry about her being overwhelmed. She gets lots of love and is spoiled by how many walks she gets. Thank you Uncle Peter!”
“I felt so comfortable leaving Frankie with Lisa! This was our very first River experience and it was awesome thanks to Lisa. Great communication! Lisa has a very calm presence and energy which was very helpful for Frankie.”
“Debbie is wonderful! She took our dog on lots of walks and sent pictures and updates during his stay. Our dog looked relaxed and happy, which made us feel comfortable leaving him with her. We will definitely use Debbie again in the future.”
“Our dog had a wonderful experience with Sandra. Iggy is a very picky dog. When we go away, he usually loses weight from not eating, and becomes quite depressed. With Sandra, to the contrary, Iggy was in great spirits, ate his food, and did not lose any weight. Highly recommended.”
“Nancy took great care of my Ollie and was very responsive while I was away. She even did some training with him while she had him. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”
“The best! Kirsten’s love for dogs is evident as soon as you meet her. She instills lots of confidence that your dog will be well cared for, send sweet picture updates, and my Rosie comes back happy, tired, and smelling better than when she left”
“Heath and Amy were wonderful! They took great care of Eloise and were patient and attentive to her timidness with new people. I appreciated the communication, updates and photos. Eloise got along great with their pup and they played and enjoyed each others company. I will book Eloise a stay with Health and Amy again in the future! Thanks again for taking care of my sweet girl.”
“Jocelyn was great! We ended up having to change dates and she was flexible which was so nice! Our dog is always happy to spend time with Jocelyn and her two pups! So thankful we’ve found her!”
“Juan was awesome with our boy Vandal! He took him on walks, went to the park, sent pictures, and gave him ALLLL the attention! We will definitely be booking with him again in the future! Thank you so much!!!”
“Barry took such great care of Bug. He was very intentional with walks and treat enrichment. He has great communication. I will definitely use him in the future.”
“Ching yin, was an awesome host for Addie! It was a short notice booking but she and her husband were very flexible. Very responsive and frequent updates were great and appreciated. Would book again!”
“We love leaving our pup with Paul and we know she loves it too! Everyone seems to have a great time, and we never have a worry! Lots of great photos, and very responsive too!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Christine and Steven! They were generous in setting up a meet and greet as this was our dog’s first time staying with them. They are caring and responsive, and we really appreciated the photos and updates about our pup!”
“Amber provided excellent care. Otis had a great time! We wanted Otis to experience more socialization with other dogs and he had two days of fun and playing with Amber and her family. Her location is perfect for travel out of PDX.”
“Holly was outstanding in every sense! She and her family were so loving, caring, and patient with our baby. She was communicative, and completely understanding when we had to extend our booking due to unforeseen circumstances which only assured me more that Milo was in good hands. She is extremely trustworthy and I know any dog she cares for is lucky to be in her company! Plus her yard is every dog’s dream haha! Will definitely be booking with her again in the future. 😊”
“Communicative and pictures. Tulip had a great stay! You can tell Elaine and her family are dog lovers. Tulip can't wait to visit her new bffs (kiddos) again. Thank you Elaine!”
“This was the second time ysong Rover. Our first was god awful. I was hesitant but Haleigh was reassuring that she was going to take great care of my pooch! All the photos proved it along with the pitty smile Red Dog had when I picked him up! He was walking and loving life before he even noticed I was there to get him. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Taylor and Olivia were wonderful sitters and my dog just loved them. I felt really secure knowing my dog was in great hands. Would be thrilled to book again. Thank you both so much for taking such good care of my little Dot.”
About: My husband and I have had many years of experience with dogs. We have a rescue that we adopted a year and half ago. While we can't afford a second dog right now we would love to have more in our home! My husband and I both work from home. I do go into the office on Tuesdays, but he is always here. We are available 7 days a week currently. I have a fenced in yard and one 20 lb female rescue pup to keep your dog company. We allow dogs on the furniture/bed, but we can also crate your dog if preferred.

Peter did an excellent job taking care of our high energy, mischievous puppy. He played with Tulin a lot and took him on multiple walks each day. Our puppy is still getting trained, and Peter had to clean up multiple accidents inside, as well as coax him into eating meals as a picky eater. He sent many photos and thorough updates each day, and we felt like Tulin was being well taken care of the whole time.
We had such a good first experience with Lajetta. She is a wonderful communicator, sent lots of photos and took great care of our dog. Our dog got along well with the other dogs, and was his normal self when picking him up at the end of the stay. Lajetta is proven to be great with dogs, and a responsible sitter, much appreciated!
Amelia was wonderful! She communicated very clearly, was flexible with our holiday schedule, and our quirky, sometimes nervous dog Leo let her pet him right away, which says a lot. She has two very sweet and friendly dogs of her own, and we felt completely comfortable having her stay in our home. We loved getting regular updates and knowing Leo was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Amelia again if she’s willing and available. Thank you so much!
Sean was great with my big girl Fiona. He took care of all of her needs and took her on some fun little adventures too. Plenty of updates with pictures and videos were greatly appreciated too. Would definitely book with Sean again if I need someone to watch my girl.
Anni is the best! She took incredible care of my reactive dog and was so understanding about his weird needs. Her house has a great fenced backyard for lots of play. She’s super responsive and sent lots of sweet pics and videos of my dogs time with her. Will 10000% book with her again and recommend to others!
Jessica and Jascha were amazing pet sitters! My frenchie has skin allergies and has to take lots of different medications and they were great about taking care of him. They also sent daily updates with photos and videos. I’m sure Rocky will be seeing them again sometime in the future :)
Joseph was an excellent sitter for my dog, Tanner. His daily check-ins, along with thoughtful photos and videos, gave me peace of mind while I was away. He took wonderful care of Tanner, and it was clear that Tanner had an amazing time during his stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Joseph again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter :) Thanks, Joseph!
Caroline was wonderful, and super responsive before and throughout the stay! She asked great questions to help my high-energy pup settle right in for the week, and made sure to send plenty of pictures too. Cricket came back cheery and rejuvenated from her holiday too, and I’m sure would love to go back for another stay in the future.
Our 6.5 month old Portuguese Water Dog spent the day with Ronnie and Dino and he had a blast. Ronnie sent us several videos throughout the day and it was great to see how much fun he was having while we were away. Ronnie was also super communicative during the booking process, which was great because this was our first Rover booking and we had a lot of questions.
Peter is fantastic with our dog, Cuddy! He’s warm, attentive, and incredibly reliable. We always get great updates, he’s super responsive, and we can tell he cares about her so much. He’s been our repeat dog sitter for a reason, we couldn’t ask for better. Highly recommend!”
