“Katy did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. Her daily photos of them and updates were much appreciated and made it possible to relax and enjoy our Christmas visit with our daughter, son-in-law and baby grandson in Seattle. We returned to two happy, well fed kitties with clean water to drink and clean litter boxes. We feel fortunate to have Katy available to care for our cats and look forward to being able to book her again.”
“Olivia took fantastic care of our cat Milton! He is older and usually very shy around strangers, but she was able to make friends with him over the course of our time away and he came out for scritches and treats!💖”
“Paul took excellent care of my kitten Clover while we were away. Clover has a wild disposition, and so is choosy about who she likes, but Paul won her over. He took lots of pictures and took the time to make her comfortable. Thank you!”
“Lucy took wonderful care of our senior cat. She was reliable, communicative and gave the best updates. She had an obvious love for animals and we would highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve sat for a variety of sweet dogs and cats. From elder cats with dietary issues, shy cats who prefer to be left alone, puppies who adore attention, and chill grown up dogs who just like to hang out. I work full time from 8-5 on the weekdays so unfortunately I can’t be there full time those days. However I do have a flexible lunch break and can make sure a dog or cat is fed/walked within a four hour period. I follow the specific instructions given in terms of how often they are fed, given water, treats, their exercise/play routine. And give them lots of pets!
“Emily is incredible. This was the first time I had left my pets with anyone and it was Emily that I trusted to care for them. She took time to meet me and them in advance to make sure we were all comfortable with her. My pups instantly loved her. She is kind, thoughtful and professional. She cared for my girls as if they were her own and kept me posted on their activities and well being. I will definitely ask for help in the future without hesitation.”
About: I will give your pets all the love and attention they need. I Currently don’t have any pets so yours will be my top priority. Currently a full time college student so I have pretty flexible hours. I can always check in on pets in between classes or in my free time. Willing to do whatever is necessary. If you have any specific requirements for your pets just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them to the best of my ability.
“This is the 2nd time Jenna has watched my boy Reggie. She goes above and beyond to make sure his high energy demands are meant. Thank you Jenna for taking such good care of my buddy!”
“Taylor was quick to reply to my request. It was on short notice. He was able to come meet Otto the next day. He arrived on time spent time meeting Otto and learning his routine. Taylor provided efficient care with updates for walking and feeding. I would definitely have Taylor again.”
“Alanna is the best! I loved getting all the photo updates while I was away. She really knows her way with animals and gave me so much peace that our fur baby got all the love while we were away. She’s definitely our new “go-to”!”
About: When you go on vacation, your pets deserve a vacation, too! I strive to not only meet your dog's needs but to provide them with personalized attention and enrichment. I take the time to greet your pet, learn their personality, and let your pet lead the interactions. With five years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and ages, I've worked with everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, including dogs with anxiety and other special needs. Your furry friends will enjoy hiking adventures, special treats, and all the individual attention they crave. I'm also experienced in administering medications when needed. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities - because when they're having a great time, you can truly relax! I'm currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have general availability. I'm fully available evenings and weekends. I accept advance reservations and operate on a first-come, first-served basis. My focus on house-sitting means all pets I care for have the comfort of familiar and safe surroundings—a key benefit over boarding. I make a point of meeting pets and owners beforehand. I also operate on a "leave no trace" principle when house-sitting. In other words, I leave your home clean and ready for your return.
“For the first time ever we were able to travel without worry for our two Great Pyrenees. Melissa is so kind and caring, her empathy and love for dogs was apparent immediately. She is extremely competent and thoughtful, we received multiple photos of our pups and other farm animals. She even sent photos of locked gates! We returned home to happy & healthy pups, horses, and cattle. I trust Melissa immensely with our beloved pets and hope to work with her again in the future!”
“Outstanding person and sitter!! Helped us immeasurably when we could see on camera that our cat was not eating as usual. She is also so good at really getting what you are asking, even if there are details. We are so thankful.”
“Sara was amazing with our kitties while we were out of town! She checked on them daily and was very reliable. She asked excellent questions prior to watching them and gave us great updates while we were gone! We would definitely book Sara again!!”
About: I’ve had a dog for almost all of my life and love every single breed, shape, size and color! I had 3 dogs at once all different ages, sizes and personalities. I’ve recently found myself in a position in life where I do not have a fur baby of my own, so I thought I’d give this a shot! One big perk: I work full time at a compound pharmacy where I make vet medications so I know the tricks of giving them and how important it is to give them accurately. I currently work full time Monday through Friday 9-5, but can adjust my schedule to earlier or later if need be. I also have the option of a one hour lunch break. My schedule is usually pretty open on the weekends. I have no problem with dogs free roaming or being in the crate. I love after work walks and play time to help keep them occupied and happy.
About: Hi there! I’m Shaylee. I love all kinds of animals. I grew up with dogs and bunnies, and took horseback riding lessons as a kid. My family bred several litters of Golden Retrievers, so I’m familiar and comfortable with puppies. I have my own sweet pup, Birdie. She loves to swim, hike and play fetch. I often help out with friends’ pets, and would love to care for others! I’ve cared for reactive dogs in the past, and am open to any additional measures I may need to take to ensure everyone’s comfort. I’m confident in my ability to keep your pet safe and happy. I’m about to begin a grad program at MSU and will have classes Monday and Wednesday through the summer. Other than that, I’m pretty flexible! I know each animal is unique in what they need to be happy and healthy, and I follow all instructions to a T to make sure they get the care they need. I also certainly watch for concerning behavior or symptoms that may indicate illness or distress, and will always check in if I think something’s up. I’ll treat your animal like my own!
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a dedicated Animal Sciences graduate from Oregon State University (Chemistry minor) with four years of hands-on experience at a professional dog boarding facility, plus extensive large-animal and livestock care that gives me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and nutrition. At Double C Dog Boarding I worked full-time for two years and part time for one, I was responsible for the daily care of 10-45 dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I handled feeding customized diets, administering medications, providing exercise and playtime, monitoring health, and creating a calm, home-like environment so every dog felt safe and happy while their families were away. I’m comfortable with high-energy pups, seniors, anxious dogs, and multi-dog groups, and I’ve built a reputation for being reliable, patient, and attentive. My formal training and other roles make me even more equipped to care for your pets: • Worked as a Student Worker at the OSU Horse Center (stall cleaning, feeding, turnout, hoof care, and medication). • Served as Student Ranch Hand at the OSU Beef Ranch, checking cattle daily, treating injuries, and repairing fencing. • Conducted beef nutrition research at OSU, performing blood draws, fecal sampling, rumen fluid collection, and precise diet management. • Currently a Communications Intern at the Oregon Farm Bureau, where I continue promoting animal welfare and agriculture. I’m extremely reliable, a clear communicator, and I genuinely love what I do. Whether you need overnight boarding, drop-ins, or just a trustworthy sitter who truly understands animals, I’m here to give your dog the same high-quality, loving care I’ve provided for years. I’m based in OR and would love to meet you and your pup! Feel free to message me with any questions. 🐾 I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to cater to and come see your pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule, so please feel free to reach out! In your home, I will follow your pet’s exact daily routines, feeding schedules, and preferences to keep everything feeling familiar and stress-free. Using my years of professional boarding experience and Animal Sciences background, I’ll provide fresh water and meals, give medications if needed, offer plenty of playtime and enrichment, and monitor closely for any changes in behavior or health. I’m reliable and committed to treating your pets like my own while keeping your home respected and cared for.
Kerns cat parents share their Rover experiences
I was away for 4 days, and Taylor did a wonderful job of taking care of my pet! She's very skittish most times, but by the end of the 4 days, it was clear that she was warming up to him! He played with her every day (as much as she would allow) and sent wonderful photos and updates!
My Clover kitten, my fish, chickens, and houseplants are all in good hands with Paul Louis. He is by far and away the best home + pet sitter I have ever known. He is impeccable with his communication and always goes above and beyond—treating my home and family with the care he would show his own. Thank you once again, Paul Louis!
Adrienne was a fantastic sitter for our three cats who love attention. She was very reliable and communicative and sent update messages and photos, all of which gave us peace of mind while we were traveling for 6 days out of state. The cats obviously loved her, as even the shy one would come out to get pets and to play. We hope to have Adrienne back again to care for them!
