“Absolutely the best. Tayler was super responsive and made our first experience with Rover incredible. She provided us with some many pictures and updates and our girls loved her. Will 100% be using her services again!”


“I couldn’t recommend Jamie more! Jamie watched our cats and dog while we traveled and it was one of the first times that my husband and I were able to actually relax and forget about our pets, rather than worry about them with a sitter! Jamie was communicative, punctual, and warm. He sent pictures and updates and I felt comfortable asking for any needs that popped up throughout our time away! Jamie will be the first person I contact for our future house sitting needs. Thank you so much Jamie- excited for you to see the babies again!”

“Atlas was communicative, considerate, and clearly has a love for animals. As an anxious person with anxious animals, I was able to relax knowing that my pets were in good hands while I was traveling. I would be happy to book Atlas as a pet sitter again.”

“mackenzie was so great with my dog, she was thorough and proactive in making sure kane would be as comfortable as possible during their time together. highly recommend!”

“Alicia was an awesome house sitter! I'd recommend her for anyone. We were gone for a week and Alicia gave us every update we needed and went above and beyond our expectations. We had total piece of mind with Alicia watching our pup for the week. 5-stars, no doubt!”

“Scott took amazing care of my shy lab and crazy cat They both were so happy with him and were well taken care of. I appreciated the regular updates and came home to a clean house and happy animals! I will definitely book Scott again!”

“Donna was amazing. We had her stay at our house when we had to go out of town for the night. Donna showed up on time and kept in contact with pictures and text's. She went above and beyond for our 2 poodles, who loved her. Very kind, trustworthy and caring.”

“Noemi was very kind and patient with my two large dogs, one of whom is very high energy, and the other who is very shy and fearful. Noemi sent many pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. She left my home cleaner than she found it, and the dogs were fine when I got back. I can recommend her heartily!”

“Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!”

“Ann was great to work with. She clearly has an understanding of the process and knew how to keep things both friendly but also efficient. We will definitely reach out to Ann again.”

“Taylor got along great with our tricky, anxious dog, and our senior cat loved snuggling with her. My partner calls her “the dog whisperer.” She was very attentive to our instructions, asked for clarification when needed, requested a video of how to give the cat his medication the right way, and communicated with us regularly and shared lots of videos. Our elderly dog had a medical issue come up while we were gone, and she had the supplies and experience to get him into her car and to the emergency vet, then spent the whole afternoon and into the late night at the vet with him. She was very reassuring through a difficult time and it helped so much to be able to trust that he was in expert hands. We didn’t know how we could possibly take a vacation due to our pets’ high needs, and we’re so glad we found Taylor!! We returned to happy pets and a home that was just as we left it.”

“Skyler was great! Did an amazing job taking care of our pups and keeping the house in one piece. Communication was on point, sending updates each day. Would definitely rebook in the future. Highly recommended!”

About: I have been a certified veterinary technician for 6 years. I've been taking care of pets ranging from fish, reptiles, dogs, and cats for pretty much my entire life! I also worked as a positive reinforcement dog trainer for a couple years while in tech school. As a veterinarian technician, I have experience administering medications and dog/cat CPR. I also have experience with fearful or reactive dogs. I am looking to make this full time so I am hoping to spend as much time w your pets as possible. I am currently open to booking any day of the week and can stay overnight. While I'm at home I am always cuddled up with one of my pets and it would be no different in your home! As a pet sitter/walker, my goal is to give your pets the attention they want and follow the routine you have! I want their time away from you to be as stress free as possible.
“This was the first time Lucinda stayed in our house and took care of our dog. I can't say enough about how wonderful it all went! Lucinda is an excellent communicator which is very important to me. She sent me regular updates and photos. I felt very confident that our dog was being well cared for. She really seemed to enjoy being with him! We came home to a clean and orderly house. 5 Stars all around!!!”

“Matt was an excellent pet sitter. He was extremely easy to work with and took great care of our house and pets while we were away. He was always quick to respond, and I feel he went above and beyond to ensure we came home to a well-kept home and pets.”

“Jeanne was absolutely wonderful! She stayed with our dog and cat for two nights and took such great care of everything. She checked in daily, sent thoughtful updates and photos, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, she went above and beyond by leaving us homemade pickles and marinara sauce. Such a kind and unexpected touch! Our home, dog and cat were clearly cared for with so much love. We would 100% book Jeanne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”

“Natalie was a wonderful and considerate dog/cat/house sitter. Our old dog had a lot of anxiety when our family was gone over the holidays. It was the first time he had a sitter from Rover. He really gave Natalie a hard time, and his hip dysplasia took a turn. Natalie was so caring and great at communicating and coming up with ideas to help him take his meds. She gave us a lot of piece of mind while we were gone.”

“Thank you for being reliable and proving that Rover.com is something I can rely on in my future when needed. I am now confident that the next person I schedule on here to watch Jane will be just as caring and professional. Good luck!”

Milwaukie pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kate was great!!!! Kate stayed ant our home to care for our little Boston Terrier for the weekend. She came for a meet an greet prior to her stay. She was communicative and bonded with our Mollie. She was respectful of our home and it was just as we left it. Clean and organized. She was very engaged with Mollie. I’d definitely recommend Kate. Thank you Kate!!! :-)

Q always is so caring with our dogs. We have a lot of care requirements and they always are more than willing to make sure all needs are met. They also make sure to hang out with them a lot which makes Penny and Winston so happy. Highly recommend them for sitting.

Lauren was an amazing Rover sitter! She took wonderful care of our dog, and it was clear from the updates and photos that our pup was happy and comfortable the whole time. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. We’ll absolutely be booking with Lauren again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!

I hate leaving a review because I want Jamie all for us! We’ve never had such a phenomenal dog and house sitter who takes such amazing care of our pets and our home. He lets us truly relax and enjoy vacation knowing everything at home is in the best hands. I couldn’t recommend him more.

We were so impressed with Tadgh. Our dog gravitated to him right away. He messaged us about a man that came up to our door and knocked on it about eight hours after we left. We were so glad he was housesitting for us. He is a responsible and attentive person. We will definitely schedule him again.

Ann was always on time, reliable, and made sure Muffin got his medication and followed his daily routine. This was our first time using Rover and leaving him at home. He’s very attached to us and has some separation anxiety, but Ann made the whole experience easy and comforting. We appreciated the daily updates, had total peace of mind and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛

Atlas did an amazing job watching my dog! They read all my instructions, were patient when my dog was anxious at first, gave her lots of love and attendtion, and kept me in the loop with regular updates. I highly recommend Atlas and will be booking with them again!

We give Luke high marks for caring for our pup. He kept her active and engaged with lots of walks and attention. We enjoyed his frequent updates and photos while we were gone. It made our trip more enjoyable knowing our dog was in good hands. Would definitly recommend him to others!

Brooke is awesome! She met with us first to make sure it was a good fit. Her training as a dog behaviorist and trainer was noticable. She put our anxious dog at ease right away. It's very clear she loves animals. As a house sitter she was very respectful to our space. It was left just as clean as when we left and our animals seemed very happy.
