About: I have my own pets and am definitely the person that gravitates towards the furry critters at social gatherings. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats and have often been my friends go to petsitter. I have two dogs and a cat, and have had other pets previously. Currently I work full time Monday through Friday, with limited telework flexibility. However, my weekends and schedule can be flexible with notice. I'm your go to for quick weekend (Friday - Sunday) getaways! I love hosting friends and family, and your pets are the same! I make sure they understand their surroundings and have the basic needs met, water, food, bathrooms, AND fun.
“Thayer has been so great with walking our pup. She is reliable and our Doodle is excited to see her. Great communication as well with messaging/details of pup’s walks.”
“Naomi is amazing. She is reliable, flexible, and quick to respond to any communication. She gives me great updates on my dog each day and most importantly I can tell she truly enjoy spending time with him. As someone who has pet owner guilt over leaving her pup all day, it is such a huge relief to know he has someone who cares a lot about him to spend some time with him during the day. Thanks for being so amazing, Naomi!”
“Haley was great with Lucy. Lucy is a giant great Pyrenees and Haley had great control and a calm demeanor for the walk. Highly recommend and Lucy will look forward to her next with her.”
About: I've grown up with kennels and have done dog rescue and transportation for the past few years. I'm very experienced in bigger dogs, high prey drive, high energy and enthusiasm dogs. I want to take care of your companion the way you do, to keep the stability in their lives as much as possible, whether at your home or mine, I hope to make a good friend in your dog, and provide the most consistent care possible! I love dogs of every size, though bigger dogs and senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. I keep a close eye on all dogs in my care, and always take every precaution for their safety and well-being. Thank you for taking the time to read. I work from my phone and am available for most scheduling options. I'm up by 6am and often stay up quite late most days. An afternoon nap is perfect with a fur friend. Currently I am not offering boarding services but I am happy to come sit your furry family in their home. When house sitting I am at your house all my default hours unless we specify something different. I limit bookings to repeat clients mostly and would not be gone more than 2 hours. I respect your home and generally meal prep for a house sitting session, I don't cook at your house and I bring my own blankets and towels. I always ask your allergies and dietary preferences so I keep the routine of your home safe while you are away.

Please reach out if you would like specific days/ times that aren’t available on the schedule, it will only let me list days I’m available all day, but I’d be happy to care for your fur babies before or after work days as well!

About: Hi there! I'm Madeline — a college student, lifelong dog lover, and proud dog mom to Azul. While I’m new to Rover, I bring years of trusted experience walking and sitting dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful 8-week-old puppies to wise 13-year-old seniors. Friends and family have relied on me time and time again, and one even called me a dog whisperer after watching me connect with their strong-willed Rottweiler-Pitbull mix! I’ve studied basic training techniques through a puppy obedience course, guidance from a professional trainer, and good ol' YouTube. These tools help me better understand each dog’s energy and needs—whether they’re high-energy adventurers or mellow cuddlebugs. My goal is always to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to connect with you and your pup! I'm currently a college student, and while on summer break, I have a very open and flexible schedule—available on both weekdays and weekends! Whether you need regular daily walks, last-minute check-ins, or extended sitting while you're out of town, I’m here to help. My open availability means I can easily accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent care and attention. I've had the pleasure of dog sitting and walking for close friends and family, always making sure to follow any specific instructions they provide. Since summer days can get especially hot, I’m always prepared—I carry a bag with essentials like water, a bowl, treats, poop bags, and a frisbee. If the pavement is too hot (I always check with the back of my hand), my dog wears protective boots to prevent burns. On those extra hot days when it’s safer to stay indoors, I make sure dogs still get their energy out with games, enrichment toys, and fun training tricks. I love keeping things playful while prioritizing safety and well-being.
About: It’s been rough - three rainbow bridge trips in short order. I need more time before I go down that road again, but in the meantime, I will happily love your dog (or cat, or parrot, or lizard, or...?) as if s/he were my own. I have a special fondness for seniors and special needs, but I’m game for anything. And, who doesn’t like puppies and an in-the-prime-of-lifer?? Ornery, shy, suspicious, or complicated personalities happily embraced. I am patient and sensitive to the fact that some animals need lots of closeness and reassurance while others need their space. I’m willing to work to earn their trust and set appropriate boundaries to earn yours. The pet and owner and I will work together to set the terms of our relationship, and I promise to be a most excellent guardian catering to each individual’s needs. My most consistent regular obligation is a daily trip to the barn to take care of my horse, but if needed, I have alternate coverage. I try to keep my presence low profile while I’m there. I appreciate the trust that comes with visiting in someone else’s home. When you come home, it’s nice for everyone if you can barely tell I was there.
About: I have helped dogs with birthing and caring for puppies. Owned dogs for over 20 years from little to big breeds and some with special needs Currently retired so pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routines. The well being and care of your pet would be my top priority Pet sitting in your home I believe helps to lessen the stress of separation for your dog with being in a familiar environment instead of a kennel
“Lily was very good at communicating with me about my elder dog. She was very nice would recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Jon! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets and those with special needs. Whether it’s syringe feeding, preparing special meals, or offering extra patience and gentleness, I treat every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel safe leaving your furry friend with someone you trust. That’s why I bring not just love and enthusiasm, but also calm, reliable care to every walk, visit, or overnight stay. Whether your pup needs a stroll around the block or your cat needs meds and a cozy lap, I’ve got it covered. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch with joy! I am a free lance worker. My work schedule is very fluid, I am able to work online when I am not caring for our 4 legged friends. I stay on a farm, and the dogs here are free range. We have one inside cat and two outside cats. I take the dogs on a walk into the woods every day. Two dogs get fed at night, while the cats are in the morning, and Patrick the smaller dog gets fed at noon.
About: I have owned pets my whole life and I have experience caring for them since I was 13-14 years old. I have experience with pets of all ages. My availability relies heavily on the bus schedules so please keep this in mind. If I can make it there and back on the bus or with a caregiver (I'm disabled), I can do it. On some weekends or weeks during school breaks, my 10 year old will need to come with me sometimes when I don't have anyone to watch him. He knows how to behave safely with animals. I will not leave your pets unattended or in forbidden areas and I am ON TOP of giving any necessary medications, feeding, or any other time-sensitive tasks. I will take your dog on walks every single day and I will provide the appropriate amount of attention to your pet including during play sessions.
About: I have extensive experience with a wide variety of dogs, from as small as chihuahuas to as large as Great Danes. I have trained multiple pit bulls and mixed breed dogs and have always lived in a house with a dog. I am currently training a Doberman-Pitbull puppy and a Brittany-Pitbull puppy, who are both great with other dogs of all sizes and love to help socialize other puppies. I am a full time student at the University of Oregon studying Business Administration with a concentration in Sports Business, I am also a freelance photographer so my schedule is flexible which allows me to accommodate more time for pet care. During drop in visits I will let dogs out in the owner’s backyard to go to the bathroom and I will play with them during the remainder of the time. If discussed beforehand, training can be added to drop in visits. Training includes: sit, stay, lay down, leave it, drop it, shake/high 5, and heel. During a walk, I will walk your dog(s) around your neighborhood. If discussed before and your dog(s) are healthy enough I am able to run your dog(s) during the scheduled visit. I will provide photos of your dog(s) during each visit.
About: I have owned a dog and cats since I was just a young girl. The energy and light that all animals bring into this world is magic. I have fostered a few dogs and cats over the last years for some friends. I have a big backyard and lots of time for playing. I currently only have one dog in the home that is very well mannered and looking for friends. I will take care of your pets like they were my own, only the best care and lots of attention! I am currently free for the time being so I will have plenty of time and open availability for your pups! Can do boarding for pups over night! I have a big yard and a pup at home that wants to make friends. I believe dogs deserve to be dogs. They deserve kindness and to be treated just like family. We live a simple life at the dog parks and walks everyday.
