House Sitting in Maplewood-Ashcreek, Portland, OR

“FANTASTIC 🎉 Lucinda provided such amazing care for my 2 puppers. Lucinda stay at my home for a week and cared for my puppers. I felt so comfortable and was able to enjoy my vacation. She communicated daily with updates and photos. I felt such ease knowing that my babies were getting their medicine and all the cuddles while I was away. As an added bonus she left my home cleaner than it was when I left for vacation.🤩”

“I absolutely loved having Heather take care of our precious babies. We have a doodle and a kitten and both were well taken care off. Heather spent two nights at our house with both pets. Our dog immediately took to her and was very comfortable. Our kitten is a kitten and needed some time which is normal. Heather followed our provided instructions and was kind enough to keep us updated and available when we checked in on the pets. Heather also left a follow-up note behind stating how both pets did and kept the house as it was. We are looking forward to building a long time relationship with Heather for as long as she is available.”

“Stephanie was the sweetest and best pet sitter, sending regular pic updates and asking all the right questions. Our pets had the most chill fun time with her and I’m sure are counting the days until we leave them behind again.”

“Diamond was great with our dogs. She did such a good job with them that they wanted to go home with her. Always a good sign that she took the time to bond, and because she mostly works from home, she was around them a great deal, so they felt really comfortable with her.”

“Chloe is AMAZING! She is without a doubt the best pet sitter we have ever used for our beloved bur baby. She is smart, responsive, and very thorough. She was easy to connect with initially and made the process painless for us. During her stay, she sent regular updates and photos. We came home to a spotless house and happy pup. We would not hesitate to book her again anytime. Thanks, Chloe for taking care of our baby and we look forward to booking again soon!!”

“Kelly did a wonderful job taking care of my two pets (dog & cat) while I was away! This was my first time booking with Kelly and from initial request emails, to setting up a meet and greet and throughout the entire stay she was very communicative. I never had to ask for updates as she'd make sure to send them daily with pictures which I always really appreciate. 10/10 recommend booking with Kelly and I'll definitely be booking in the future.”

Lauren S.

“Beth was wonderful from start to finish! When she came to meet the dogs and us before booking with Rover the first time they inexplicably didn't bark when she came to the door (a first!) and they were comfortable with her from the first sniffs! Beth reassured us with a text as soon as she got to our home. Beth took great care of our two Shih Tzus & shared photos daily so we knew they were happy & well cared for! Beth followed our instructions to the letter & asked questions when she needed more details, & also left our home in at least as good condition as we left it!”

About: Experienced dog sitter and dog walker who has looked after seven different dogs over the last 10 years for two different friends/households. These two different friends have both had me stay in their house while they are out of town, and these overnight stays have ranged from a single night to over a week. This past experience includes dog sitting and walking three dogs at once. I'm excited to bring my pet care experience to Rover in hopes that I can expand my network of furry friends. What sets me apart? I won't be staring at my phone or otherwise distracted while caring for your pet(s). I like to take daily walks by myself around my neighborhood, and when I see someone walking a dog that person is almost always looking at their phone/talking on their phone. That won't be the case with me. I love dogs, and I'm fascinated with how they interact with their surroundings during a walk or potty break. So, it's easy for me to stay focused on them. Another thing that sets me apart is that I love to talk to dogs and cats. I'm not mentally imbalanced - instead, it's just a fun way for me to strengthen the connection with my furry friends. I'm currently unemployed, with plenty of free time. I'd love to spend as much time as possible caring for pets. After spending 18+ years in the sportswear industry holding various roles in marketing and merchandising, I've decided to embrace my love of pets and try and make pet care a full-time job. During my dog sitting time for my two friends, I've always exhibited maximum trust and responsibility. I always try and mirror an environment the pets are accustomed to having. This includes feeding habits, bedtime preferences, what toys/games they like to play, etc. Even though I stay in their homes to look after their pets, I always leave the house as clean (if not cleaner) then when I arrived. I've also done other tasks for them, like watering plants, taking garbage/recycling bins to the street, etc. I'm comfortable managing the unexpected. While dog sitting, I've dealt with dog diarrhea, dog vomiting, a lengthy power outage, and a car alarm going off.
