Pet care experience

Responsible and active dog buddy!

I have a well-behaved, 13 year-old Maltese-Poodle, Pavlov, and love spending time in the outdoors with him. My wife, two kids, our pup, and I love having other pups over and making new friends in this wonderful city. One of the biggest things we love about Rover is knowing our pets are never alone and are with a loving family instead of being boarded up in a small crate somewhere and would enjoy providing this service for others too. We relocated to the Portland metro from Seattle about 7 yeara ago and are loving the area! Another aspect we loved from our past sitters are the picture updates, and I will be sure to send pictures throughout the day for peace of mind.

Such a great experience. I had a last minute cancellation from a sitter due to a family emergency. After searching and reading reviews, I found Mike and family. Mike was available and offered to meet me and my pup prior to my departure. Mike, wife, two daughters and their adorable pup Pav were so kind. I felt like Odie would be in good hands. During Odies stay, I received updates and photos throughout the day. Odie recieved walks, play time with the girls and Pav. Thank you again and will definitely reach out again.

Bea appeared to love her time with Mike and his family and Pavlov. They were very communicative. I got plenty of updates and our dog was calm and happy at pick up. So much better than a boarding facility, hands down!

Mike was great with my 4 year old dachshund Dolce. She enjoyed her many walks, play time and especially nap on Mike's lap. I would definitely book Dolce a stay with him again!

Mike was awesome. He was so great about keeping us up-to-date on how Bella was doing. He regularly sent pictures and videos showing us that she was happy safe and sound. We will definitely use Mike in the future because we know our Bella was truly happy with his family .

Schedule

I work from home and appreciate the added companionship motivating me to go for walks more often. Also, I have a fenced yard where the pups get let our multiple times a day to play and get fresh air.

Safety, trust & environment

I allow the pups to go anywhere in the house while I work, although they usually keep me company in the office. I go for two walks with the pups daily to provide enough fresh air and exercise.

Pets

A typical day

I play fetch with the dogs, go for walks to the park as a family, and run around in the back yard playing chase to get fresh air and excercise.

Because we have two small children, we can only care for dogs who are potty trained, don't require medication, and are kind to children and other dogs. We only watch one pup at a time.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
