“Kena did a great job & was very conscientious in her car of Murphy. She asked questions when needed to know something, which I really appreciated. I will definitely use her when booking another reservation!”

About: I don’t have special skills but feel very close to every dog that I know. I have had puppies before and trained them. I’m not a professional, but you can make sure I will make my best taking care of your pet. I am currently working on my full-time job nine to five Monday through Thursday and Fridays nine to noon. Anytime after that I would love to take your puppy. I don’t have pets at home so I have enough space. Part of my yard it’s fenced and I there is a park right behind my house.

About: Hey pups and pup parents! I’m a systems analyst by trade, aka a checklist person. I’m naturally detail-oriented, so if your pet has a specific medication routine, a strict diet, or a very particular way they like things done, I’m the person who will get it right. With two high-energy children and a senior dog at home, I know all about being the beacon of calm and patience. I have a massive soft spot for silly “Golden Retriever energy" and a special place in my heart for seniors. I’m new to this paid pet drop-in gig, but I have cared for pets and children (including those with disabilities) nearly all my life. A quick note on fit: To keep things safe and happy for everyone, I only sit for friendly, non-aggressive dogs. I want to make sure I can give your pup 100% of my attention in a relaxed setting! I’m currently working part-time and have two children to take to from care. Because of this, mid-day drop ins/walks work best. When I’m in your home for a drop-in, I’ll treat your space and your security with total respect. I’m the person who triple-checks that the door is locked before we head out for a walk. My goal is to leave your home exactly how I found it—just with a much happier pet.

“Makenzie was a great with her visits to our 2 cats. They both warmed up to her very quickly and she sent us great photos and made sure everything was taken care of.”

About: I've had the privilege of caring for dogs for over a decade. I have experience administering medication, walking, cleaning and playing with puppies and middle age dogs. I am a full time artist with quite an open and flexible schedule. I am available during the day during the week and flexible during weekends. I love playing and spending time with my own cat, catering to her needs and spending time together. I have no issue crating other's dogs if asked.

“She took good care of my cats, followed instructions well and I didn't have to constantly check in to make sure my cats were ok. Great communication and Hayleigh was friendly. My cats seemed happy when I got home.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I currently care for 3 cats a dog and 2 frogs! I would love to work with as many fur babies as I can! I currently only work side jobs but i care for my 2 cats and dog and 2 frogs daily. With morning and night time routines . I will be traveling to work at your house where your pets can be cared for from the comfort of their own space. I am very patient and slow with animals and want them to be as comfortable as possible.

About: I may be new to Rover, but I'm not new to working with dogs. I know there are a lot of people on this site, who fluff their profiles and just do this for extra money. But, my life revolves around dogs and has for many, many years. I run my own business, Hounds of Love PDX, and bring a lifetime of experience in all areas including rescue, handling, walking, daycare, sitting, fostering, transporting and volunteering with local rescue organizations, as well as for Oregon Dog Rescue and Dove Lewis. I'm a small dog and senior advocate, and work with dogs of all sizes. I’ve always had an affinity for sighthounds(Greyhounds, Italian Greyhounds, etc), and understand their unique and sensitive nature well. I always put dogs first in every aspect of life, and feel they’re all part of my extended pack, and treat every dog as such. Safety is absolutely the top priority for me when working with pets. I’m always watching, listening and paying attention to their body language. I have a deep understanding of dog psychology and know that each dog has a unique personality and needs, and that not all dogs are extroverts. In fact, many are quite the opposite. I’m naturally hyper-vigilant, yet focus on remaining calm and assertive when working with dogs, especially when out in the world. I’ve completed a variety of trainings with dogs over my lifetime, from canine good citizen, to flyball, to advanced therapy dog training. I’m Pet CPR + First Aid certified, as well as bonded and insured through Pet Sitters Associates. I always carry a well-stocked pet first aid kit in my vehicle, as well as water, bowls, treats, blankets and travel crates so as to always be as prepared. I’m professional, reliable, punctual, responsible, trustworthy and pride myself on practicing clear and transparent communication. I'm located in the east Portland area, also near Happy Valley and Gresham, and I service most all surrounding areas. In addition to working with dogs, I'm also a part-time jewelry artist and I work out of my home studio. I make my own schedule and usually, always available. I can schedule around most everything. At my home, I have three small rescue dogs that are a bonded pack. We utilize pet gates and dog run fencing in our fenced backyard. Open to small dogs for boarding and daycare.

“Claire was wonderful! She took great care of my dogs during drop-in visits and gave special attention to my older dog as she was recovering from a surgery. Highly recommend her for drop-in care needs!”

About: I have had a variety of dog breeds my whole life. Mostly rescues across all ages. I have puppy experience as well as senior dog experience. Additionally I have done elder and developmental disability care for people. I believe in honesty, empathy, and compassion for those under my care. I am pursuing a Masters in Social Work and have an internship part time 3x per week (both remote work) , so I would like to fill the rest of my time to support myself financially ❤️ *no school/ internship until August 2026* I am very attentive and keep a close eye on pets at all times. I try and service my clients by appealing to their needs and sensibilities and not my own. Having worked as a caregiver for people with dementia and adults with developmental disabilities has prepared me to be alert and aware at all times.

“Elaine is the best! Reliable, intentional, and our pup absolutely loves her! ❤️”
