About: I’m passionate about providing loving and reliable care for pets. With several years of experience and a lifelong love for animals, I understand that every pet is unique. I offer a calm and patient approach, making sure your furry family member feels comfortable and safe in their own home environment. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles on the couch, I’m here to give your pet the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I have currently retired, allowing me to offer a very flexible schedule, 7 days a week. I have a reliable car. Not opposed to taking dogs for a fun ride to hike a trail, or on long walks. You can count on regular updates and photos, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members

“Erin is amazing!!! Not only is she punctual but immediately became Baileys best friend. She understands pups and gives them such special attention and care. Best sitter ever!!! You can’t go wrong, we highly recommend her for your fur babies.”

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I am highly knowledgeable about dog care, behavior, and overall well-being. I have experience helping whelp puppies and have cared for and trained dogs throughout every stage of life, from puppies to seniors. I currently have a senior dog myself, giving me firsthand experience with the special attention older pets need. In addition to dogs, I have farm experience caring for horses, pigs, chickens, and other animals. I treat every pet with patience, compassion, and the same love and attention I give my own animals. Let’s plan a day for me to come do a meet and greet :) I currently work full time, but I am transitioning to part-time in the near future to dedicate even more time to pet care. Until then, I am available on weekends and am committed to providing dependable, attentive care to every pet I look after. As my schedule becomes more flexible, I look forward to expanding my availability and spending even more time doing what I love most—caring for animals. Pet care is a true passion of mine, and I am dedicated to making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I strive to provide a calm, loving, and stress-free environment, caring for pets in the comfort of their own home. I understand that many pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, and I am committed to maintaining their routines and giving them the individualized attention they deserve. With experience caring for animals of all ages, I am attentive, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Building trust with both pets and their owners is incredibly important to me, and I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and compassionate.

“Christopher was great again with our corgi boys! We realized as we were leaving that their food would likely run out while we were away, and Christopher offered to run to the pet store which we so appreciated! Thanks for going above and beyond!”

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life, and pet-sitting professionally for over 10 years now. I am particularly experienced and confident in caring for senior animals, pets needing medication, and those who are particularly shy or need that extra emotional consideration. You'll notice me take the extra time to get to know your pet and the nuances of their personality and needs. I offer animals the slowness and presence needed for deep listening and attunement: two qualities that help build trust. I am highly organized, detail-oriented, and good at communication. I'm used to planning my schedule and time around the needs of the animals I'm caring for, and am always ready to apply my extensive knowledge for unexpected situations that may arise. Some of my recent clients include a rowdy pack of 5 dogs of various size and breed, a senior cat with hyperthyroidism who switches her food preferences daily, a blind and deaf senior dog who loves to play, and a farm sanctuary with over 20 animals, including pigs rescued from a neglect situation and feral cats being socialized for the first time. If your animal needs a bit more time and care to feel comfortable around someone new, takes medication or is navigating ongoing health conditions, or is at higher likelihood of needing veterinarian intervention while you're away, these are situations where I have both experience and confidence. For me, animal care isn't just about completing all the tasks that need to be done for the well-being of our animal family members. It's about creating a relationship of trust with the animals relying on me, as well as their human guardians. Entrusting your beloved pet to another person, as well as opening your home to them, is something you deserve to feel secure and confident in. And your pet deserves to feel truly cared for, understood, and prioritized while you're away. With my years of experience both personally and professionally, and my special skills for medical and emotional complexity, I know I can provide a pet-care experience where trust flows in all directions. Pet-care is my main job (and joy) which I orient the rest of my living schedule around. I have lots of flexibility to form my schedule around your animal's needs. My most commonly booked form of pet-sitting is overnight care in the pet's home. This can put the pets at ease and lets them maintain their usual routines. I have lots of experience doing overnights, and am a clean, considerate, and respectful house guest, to the recommendation of all of my clients (happy to give references). I also offer visits / drop-ins throughout the day, and am consistent and timely in these visits.

About: Hi! I’m Jaedyn, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for all kinds of pets. Growing up, my family fostered over 10 dogs over the years, which gave me experience with different breeds, temperaments, and care needs from an early age. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, frogs, and other small animals throughout my life. One of my biggest passions was raising, breeding, and showing rabbits through 4-H, where I learned the importance of consistent care, attention to health, and understanding animal behavior. I currently volunteer part-time in a psychology research lab, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible. I currently volunteer part-time in a psychology research lab, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible routine, I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of companionship. I aim to provide pets with consistency and attention so they can stay comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before care begins. Whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, or behavioral quirks, I believe clear communication helps create the best experience for everyone. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for a beloved pet. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. Having cared for animals my entire life—from foster dogs to rabbits, cats, and small pets—I’m comfortable adapting to a wide variety of temperaments and care needs. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where your pet can feel secure and loved.

“Paula sent us pictures of our pup while we were away which we loved. Our house was clean and in order when we got home. We have booked with Paula before and she has always been great!”

“Debbie was great. She handled everything professionally, asked great questions, and even had some suggestions. Good communication leading up to and during our trip. We would use her again.”

About: I started taking care of animals when I was really young I think around 6 years old I would take care of my neighbor's dog was a little Pomeranian when they would go places. Also my neighbor had a Irish setter that I would go visit all the time and she would give me a dollar to walk her around the block or talking at least 48 years ago and I still remember it to this day it was one of the best times in my life when I was young. I think I've decided that I want to dedicate my life to this I mean what's left of it anyway lol I've been working with people most of my life and I thought I'd give this a try so daily routine and weekly routine would be up to the customer and it would be your preference after all you're the boss right? I've been a caregiver since 1998 of people I had five background checks last year for the state of Oregon I work for Oregon health Care commission and I'm a caregiver I passed five of them so you would not have to worry about me being in your home I would offer the services that you were requesting and you would also go beyond even more than what you would expect I think I would be a good fit with for anybody I'm an older lady and I've got a lot of grandchildren so I figured taking care of your for a babies and I would treat them like my grandbabies or you would say fur babies. Customer would be my boss so therefore I would do what they would ask.

“Megan sat for our dog for 2 weeks and she kept us up to date and how our dog was doing. She will be our sitter from now on. She’s one of the best that we had.”

“Great communication! Her demeanor, experience and attention to detail made it easy to entrust the care of our home and furry kids in her capable hands. Would recommend! 👍”

About: Hello! My name is Jasmine and I love furry beings of all kinds. I would especially love to take your dog(s) on walks this winter. Growing up I lived with many different pets because my mom is also an animal lover and a vet tech. I have experience with sitting and transporting dogs, cats, and even rats. I also have some experience with goats and chickens. For 2 years I worked through Citizenshipper which is a platform that connects pet owners with pet transporters. And have gone on many several-day road trips with pets. This involves many walks, potty breaks, photo updates, and meal stops, as well as overnight care. I’m no longer on that platform but offer the same services here on Rover. Trusting me to care and be responsible for your pet is an honor that I never take lightly! Feel free to message me with any questions. -Jasmine I have full availability to care for your pet every day or night of the week if need be! I want this to be my full time job. I will care for your pets as if they were my own! Let's talk about what your pet(s) needs in order to be comfortable while you're gone so I can accommodate them 😊

“Justin was kind and attentive to our dogs. He had his hands full with 2 puppies, who are full of energy; however he was undaunted and quickly "made friends" and calmed them! Also, our service dog immediately warmed-up to Justin, and she is very particular! Justin sent us pictures to let us know that all was well, and that was a welcome surprise! We have already scheduled another sitting date with Justin, and look forward to positive, on-going care for our beloved pets.”

“Lauren stayed with my cat and dog for two weeks and they loved her! Jasper looked for her in the house after she left- he misses her! They stayed busy and active and I received a lot of pictures and updates. Lauren is incredibly thoughtful and conscientious. Knowing she was here with the babes gave me such peace of mind on my trip. She is amazing!”

About: I have experience working with a wide range of animals, including puppies, adult pets, and seniors. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing basic training like potty routines, crate training, and positive behavior habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and attentive to their unique needs, whether that’s administering medication, supporting mobility, or simply giving them the extra time and gentle care they deserve. On a weekly basis, I stay organized by managing bookings and making sure I’m fully prepared for each pet’s specific needs—whether that’s exercise routines, training consistency for puppies, or extra care and monitoring for senior pets. I also build in flexibility so I can accommodate last-minute needs or spend extra time with pets who may require more attention. I tailor my care based on whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own environment, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and routine.

About: I have all kinds of animals my whole life including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters, cattle and pigs. I am currently going to Linn-Benton studying animal science. I am currently going to school in the early afternoons Monday-Thursday so I have plenty of time to care for your babies afternoons, nights, and early mornings. I have a fully fenced yard for your dogs to play in. I have access to a crate if necessary or required. I also have a spayed female dog to keep them company.
