“Jeff capably took care of our house and very shy cat while we were out of town for a few days. He even managed to snap a picture of our phantom cat! Definitely would recommend!”
“Madeleine was incredibly responsible and caring with my daughters for 18 days, even going so far as to water the plants, something I had forgotten to do. We are very grateful for her taking such good care of our girls and will definitely book her again.”
“Alyssa was wonderfully attentive for the drop-in visits we scheduled to take care of our two cats. All of the instructions were followed precisely and she provided all the photos I requested (worried for a cat who doesn't eat well when we're not at home). She also provided great notes with context of what she observed during her visits. We met for a meet & greet at the house and to go over the care routine, and we were impressed with her pleasant and calm energy which is a must for any caretaker of our anxious cats. She provided not just the requested service but also peace of mind. Thank you Alyssa, we'll definitely be looking to book with you again!! 🙏😸”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities! I have personally helped with feeding, potty breaks, bathing, playtime, and giving lots of love and attention! More recently, I have helped care for an energetic Australian Shepherd and a senior Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, adapting my care to each dog's individual needs and personality. I make sure all types of dogs feel safe, happy, and well cared for. As a college student, my schedule varies throughout the week depending on my classes and other commitments. I’m usually more flexible for dog walks, especially around my class schedule, and I love having the opportunity to get outside and spend time with dogs! I have more limited availability for longer house sits and check-ins during the week, but I’m happy to work with owners in advance to find times that fit both of our schedules. I do not currently offer pet care services in my own home. I prefer to care for pets in their own homes, where they are already familiar with their surroundings and feel safest and most comfortable. I will follow each pet's usual routine and their owner's instructions closely, while providing plenty of supervision. I want every pet and their owner to feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for.
About: With over 7 years of experience caring for dogs, I bring a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I’ve had the pleasure of working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, which has helped me develop a strong ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality. Whether it's providing a fun walk, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I’m committed to ensuring your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. My priority is always their well-being, and I work hard to create a positive, stress-free environment for every dog in my care. I am a student at Oregon State University but that leaves me with a good amount of extra time for pet care. Not only does it come easy for me, I absolutely love caring for animals whether it is my own or other pet owners. In my client's home, I tend to be an overcommunicator. I am always letting my client know when I am coming and going or when I am in for the night. I also love to send plenty of pictures. I always think that I would want my service and care to reflect how I would want my own pets to be treated.
About: Hello dog owners! And maybe even a few cats. My name is Nolan, I'm a twenty five year old guy looking to fill the gap that is a home with no pets in it, alongside making a little money of course! There has been no point in my life up until now that I haven't had dogs actively in my life, from pitbulls and bulldogs, to golden retrievers and yellow labs. There is no dog too naughty and no dog too young or old in my mind. I have bottle fed puppies as well as carried the most senior dogs up and down stairs. The creatures hold a particularly sweet place in my heart and if you are in a lifestyle that makes your little buddy need some outside help, I hope you would consider me as your walker because I will treat every pup with the patience and love I believe they all deserve, and I prefer to walk an individual families pets more so than a whole herd because I know they all want some attention specific to them. Hope to hear from you and your pup soon! At the moment I am applying for some VA assistance having finished my time in the service. So my schedule is wide open, I wish to be able to use my time well, help others and their pets to make a little scratch while I reacclimate. I would be willing to do drop in visits, potentially stay overs after enough time if that service is requested, so that we may get to know one another. Person to person and to pet! Im a big believer in the value of enrichment play, and like to apply a mixture of walk/run, fetch, tug, and hide and seek games with toys and treats. Anything I can do to help a pets mind flex as much as its limbs. But the skies the limit when theres familiarity and comfort with an animal. Feel free to explain any of your needs and we will work on it together.
“Holy wow! I cannot say enough great things about Allyson! From the very first interaction she was communicative, friendly, and respectful. She took SUCH good care of my cats while I was away. It’s easy to see she really loves what she does. I would recommend Allyson for ANYtime you need some help with your pets!”
About: I have cared for dogs all my life and I love building personal connections with animals. I miss being around dogs since I lost my own, so I truly understand how special they are. I put my heart into every walk and drop-in, making sure each pet gets the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. I am also a big mountain girl and would love to take your dog for a hike! I focus on creating a fun and safe environment, and I love sharing updates and pics with you so you can see how much joy they bring! I'm dedicated to providing the best care for your furry friend! My primary availability is Thursday through Saturday, but I'm also happy to fit in walks after 7 PM on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday’s!! Please contact me so we can find a time that works best for everyone. As a dedicated pet sitter and walker, I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment. During drop-ins and walks, I ensure your dog’s well-being by avoiding busy roads and keeping a close eye on your pet! I also prioritize building a strong bond through positive interactions and reinforcement. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in visit, I can ensure your pet will receive plenty of exercise and affection!
About: I have been caring for my friends and neighbors pets since middle school. I have also had experience volunteering at the Humane Society in both the dogs and cat departments. I also have experience with blind pets if needed. I am a full time student at George Fox University! I am available any time Tuesdays and Saturdays. As well as Monday through Sunday Evenings.

About: I am a music teacher and performer with a flexible schedule. I’ve taken care of pets big and small for family and friends. Everything from dogs and cats, to chickens, to hamsters and birds. I am especially fond of big dog breeds like shepherds and Pyrenees! I have experience and am down with everything from house sitting, feeding and checking in on, to walking or taking to the park. I am a music teacher and performer that loves kids and pets! My schedule is flexible and open for check-ins, walks, and house sitting. I have my own pets (dog, cat, chickens) that I love and care for, but I’ve also owned birds, fish, and hamsters. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect, keeping your space secure by double-checking locks, arming alarms, and maintaining a discreet presence. To ensure your pet’s total safety, I use strict escape-prevention habits when entering, perform regular hazard sweeps for loose items, and meticulously follow all feeding or medication schedules. You will receive frequent photo updates and behavior reports during every visit so you always know they are happy and safe.
About: I have had animal experience since the beginning of high school when I worked as a kennel assistant walking, feeding, and caring for boarded and hospitalized animals. Currently I work as a veterinary assistant where I care for my patients and work with my team to effectively provide healthcare and support to both animals and their owners. In this role, I assist with medical procedures, monitor patients, and ensure their comfort while also communicating with clients to help them understand their pets' needs. I am a veterinary student at OSU CCVM so my daily schedule during the school year is quite full but am available during early mornings, evenings, and weekends! I live in a small apartment so I am unable to care for pets at my place but I have a reliable vehicle and am able to travel anywhere in the Corvallis area.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have experience in senior and puppy care. I love dogs and have cared for ones of all sizes. I’m currently volunteering so I’ll have plenty of free days and weekends to watch and care for animals. My days are fairly free and I’m open for last second bookings. I have experience in crate training two dogs while providing them with a safe and comfortable experience. I also have a safe fenced yard with two friendly dogs.
About: I'm a responsible person on every aspect of my life. I consider this characteristic to be fundamental for taking care of pets. Also, I love animals and do my best to understand their very own characters! I manage my own schedule, so I just need a couple of days before to organize my journey. I usually plan my week on Sunday. I believe every pet is unique and a good owners know their pets needs. I listen and follow instructions about the pets requirements and care.
About: I have 2 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds and ages, including both puppy training and senior care. I take pride in providing personalized attention to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable, while giving owners peace of mind. I have plenty of availability with my current schedule. I have a puppy at home who I need to spend the mornings with, but my afternoons and evenings are wide open. I am a very gently caretaker, but I can be stern when necessary. I am good with training and commands, and I can adapt to a pet’s schedule very easily. I am passionate and loving about pet-care, and I will do all that I can to make your pet feel safe and comfortable.
“Kristina is Pawsome!! Her love for animals shines through in her presence. She reliable and so very caring! We received updates every time she came over. Our kitty Ro loved play time with her and after a few days of watching him he even cuddled her... this is a BIG deal because he’s not a super cuddly guy. I will defiantly be reaching out to Kristina again when we go out of town and you should defiantly do the same!”

“Isa did a wonderful job in connecting with our skittish cat. She did exactly what was asked and kept us informed with texts and photos. We are hoping to get out more and let Isa take over the care of our pet(s).”
About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, but I have been walking dogs professionally for 3 years. I have worked at dog daycares, for private walking companies, and for various apps. I am currently studying Animal Behavior in college, and I love animals more than anything in this world. I also have experience with elderly, stubborn, reactive, large, and disabled dogs. My life runs based on my pets' needs. Spending quality time with my babies is my priority in life! I also walk dozens of dogs per week, so I spend most of my free time with animals! Monitoring pets' mood and behavior is essential to make sure they're well fed, comfortable, and relaxed. Whether we're playing or cuddling on the couch, i'm always laser focused on the animal i'm with!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Philomath
Alexandra was absolutely fantastic. She was able to watch our cat on the shortest notice, was so communicative before the booking and sent detailed updates every day. We felt so confident our cat was in great hands. The best part is our cat clearly loved her!! She sent the cutest photos that made our day. Will definitely be booking Alexandra again next time we are away!
We had a wonderful experience with Kayla. She is kind, flexible, reliable, and took exceptional care of our cat while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cat was in such loving. She kept us updated and treated our pet as if it were her own. I highly recommend her!!!
Allison did a great job with the twice-daily drop-in visits for my cat, while I was away for four days. She followed the instructions I left and sent texts at the start and end of each visit. She also sent photos for every drop-in and replied to my texts promptly. She was reliable, consistent and trustworthy. I felt comfortable with her on my home and caring for my cat, and I’ll hire her for my next trip without hesitation.
Holy wow! I cannot say enough great things about Allyson! From the very first interaction she was communicative, friendly, and respectful. She took SUCH good care of my cats while I was away. It’s easy to see she really loves what she does. I would recommend Allyson for ANYtime you need some help with your pets!
