Dog Sitting in Portland

“Scott is an incredible cat-sitter for my cat Stanley. He treats him as his own pet and always impresses me with his in-depth cat knowledge. On top of that Scott goes above and beyond to take care of my home while I’m away. I truly trust him to do a fantastic job making sure Stanley is loved while I’m out of town. Would wholeheartedly recommend Scott”

“Caroline was great! Super responsible, communicated well, and was willing to meet with me ahead of time! I felt peace of mind leaving her in charge”

“Ari is the best pet sitter we have ever used, on River and elsewhere. She followed every request exactly, and she took initiative to address things that weren’t covered. I think our cats and dog were happier with Ari than they are with us! Ari is incredibly kind, thoughtful, diligent, and thorough. Ari will always be our first choice for pet care going forward. Thank you Ari!”

About: Hi! My name’s Camryn, but most people call me Cami. Like the title says- I’m here to become your pet’s new best friend. I’m a professional, reliable, and responsible caretaker. I have multiple years’ experience watching dogs of all sizes, along with cats. My current lifestyle isn’t suitable for a pet of my own, so I’m here to love your pets like they’re mine in the meantime! Rover is simply my outlet. My 9-5 keeps me busy and pays my bills, but pet sitting brings me joy and keeps me active! Questions? Interested in setting up a meet & greet? Don’t hesitate to reach out! I typically work 8-5, M-F, with Fridays being remote. For house sitting, as long as you have reliable wifi, I will work remotely from your home on Fridays. I can provide quick potty breaks throughout the day, but longer walks will happen in the morning before work, on my lunch break, and in the evening when I’m done. If your pet is good with chilling with me while I work, then we’re good! Bonus points if they make an appearance in a teams call 😉 I’m located near multiple parks and am in a very walkable neighborhood, so I can help your pup burn off some energy by going for a walk or run with them. There’s LOTS of dogs in my neighborhood and apartment complex, so in-home boarding likely wouldn’t be a good fit for reactive dogs.

“Seleste did an amazing job taking care of my two shy cats while I was away on a short trip. They warmed up to her so quickly, faster than I’ve seen before and I’m so grateful. One of my cats also started daily eyedrops for her glaucoma, and Seleste was excellent about it. I will absolutely be rebooking Seleste whenever I need another pet sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Gage—a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets, I’ve done it all. My own furry family includes Greta, a friendly 3-year-old Shar Pei, and Phil, my laid-back cat. I currently work from home, which means I have a super flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available every day of the week, from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. I live in Portland’s Pearl District, right above Fields Park. This is where I typically take dogs for walks—unless you have another preferred spot! Fields Park offers plenty of green space, safe walking paths, and a fully fenced-in dog park for off-leash fun and exercise.

About: I cannot think of a time in which I have not had dogs in my life! Growing up, I cared for two dogs and raised many farm animals — in the middle of Austin, Texas no less. I have also worked on ranches all over (from Iceland to Oklahoma), so I’m not afraid of getting a little dirty to give the best care to every animal I meet! I currently have three dogs of my own who I raised and trained myself (even the service dog of the bunch). I have my own pets I care for, but spend the rest of my time studying or doing manual labor outdoors. Generally, I have open availability to help others. :) At my home, I have a fenced yard for the dogs, a catio that I built for the cats, and I make sure to keep a routine for things like food time so that they have some structure in their precious lives! Outside of my own animals, I am always very conscious and respectful of the care instructions relayed for other furry (or not furry!) friends.

About: I grew up with several dogs in the house throughout my childhood, including my golden retriever that I had for around 13 years. My family got her as a pup barely a couple years old, and we cared for her until end of life. We took her on frequent walks and would often play with her in the backyard. I have also helped care for my roommates dogs, with experience caring for both their senior dog and new puppy. I am currently only working part-time Monday through Thursday, so I have full availability on the weekends for pet care. My work day has short hours, so I can make time before or after work for pet visits and walks. My short work day also makes me able to house sit without being away for too long. I assist my roommates care for their cats while they are out of town by making sure they have plenty of food and water. I have a bearded dragon I care for by feeding him twice a day, making sure he has plenty of food and greens, and frequently checking the temperature of his enclosure. I ensure his safety by closely watch him and keeping larger animals away while he is out of his cage. I will ensure pet safety in the clients home by carefully following directions and staying in contact as needed. While on walks with dogs, I usually ensure safety by keeping dogs on lease and avoiding other animals.

“Checked in on my chocolate lab while I was out of down. Did a great job and very good at staying in touch.”

“Taylor is wonderful!!! I booked her for a week-long holiday trip and she was so attentive while I was gone! She sent photos of my kitty every day (who always looked SO happy!) and left notes so I knew what they were up to during her visits. This was my first time using Rover and I was so nervous about it, but Taylor is amazing and I felt so safe knowing my kitty was in her care. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

Ellen M.

“Lavin is an absolute gem. I am so thrilled she was available for this last minute weekend away. I never have to worry about my boys when she’s taking care of them!”

About: I have a 2-year-old golden retriever named Mio. You can see the cutest pictures of her in my profile. She has taught me everything I know about tending to a dog’s needs. Growing up, my family didn’t have pets so I always knew I wanted to have a dog when I grew up. Now, I get to live out my dream with my little furry friend and I can’t wait to meet yours! I work as a speech-language pathologist for a school district so my summer schedule is very flexible right now. I can provide frequent potty breaks and walks during boarding at home. I’m also able to sit at the pet’s home to tend to all their needs in their natural environment. I live in a very pet-friendly apartment building, which has a grooming station where I can provide baths at no additional cost. I also live walking distance from beautiful parks. For optimal care, I ask that pet parents provide any necessary materials so I can feed and walk your dog(s). I’m happy to discuss any household needs for overnight stays to best provide services in the comfort of your home. Your pet’s safety and comfort is a non-negotiable and I hope to make their time with me as seamless, fun, and stress-free as possible. I’ll also ensure to provide updates and photos of your furry friend through their time with me. I’m a quick responder so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions!

About: I was raised on a large property and we cared for several different animals in our company. I love caring for dogs and cats, I'll run with any dog and I love to interact with cats while reading and during feeding time for extra treats. I love animals very much, and have always pet-sat growing up. For dogs, I love to run; I trained in the military and always enjoyed a good run during my exercise. It's kept me fit and ready to make any furry friend work out that extra energy! For cats, despite my love of exercise and running, I enjoy the calm and make myself a great quiet friend for cats to bond with. I pay mind to litter, tracking, and popular cat hides to check on the finer details our feline friends need, since they talk to us a lot less than dogs! I am currently studying for Nursing and Nutrition and going back to college. Hoping to have this help out the part time I can work while I focus on life! I clean, scan, and prepare the proper food and keep to a schedule especially for cats. I have a cat with special care needs and always stressed finding her a sitter when I was away. So I want to offer my customers the peace of mind they deserve knowing their furry companion is cared for.
