“She is fantastic and Lew , had like a vacation time. I will recommend Rebecca to everyone who wants to be sure that his dog is going to enjoy and feel loved. Thanks Rebecca.”
About: Welcome! My name is Kirsten and I am a resident of Portland Tx! I’m originally from Austin where I began my animal care journey. I owned my own animal care service business in Austin for about 4 years taking care of dogs and cats from north all the way down to south Austin. I’ve loved every minute of meeting all kinds of personalities from all pets and giving them the love and attention they need. I’m happy to do a meet and greet with your fur baby. Look forward to meeting you! Pet care is a consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I currently work full-time as a dental assistant, and I am preparing to transition into dental hygiene school soon. Because I already manage a structured schedule, I’m very organized with my time and make pet care a priority. My routine allows me to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention. I love to take pups on walks In the neighborhood, play with their favorite toys and give them lots of rubs! If there are activities you prefer I would more than happy to add them to our daily activities. :)
“Mary and her family were wonderful. We had travel come up and no where to send our new puppy. She was attentive and kept us updated throughout that days with pics and video. Will def call her again in the future to watch our boy.”
“Tetiana is an incredible human and an amazing dog-sitter. My Australian shepherd, Cato, had an amazing time. She provided lots of updates and pictures, took him on plenty of walks, and gave him lots of love. Thank you so much again!👏🏽👏🏽”
About: My house is the go-to for all our family dogs whose humans can't be home with them! I have my own pets, and I have been caring for family pets for as long as I can remember. I keep them at the house, or care for them in their own homes. I've been told I have a giant heart, and there is plenty of space for your fur baby! I have a full time, fully remote job. My schedule is very flexible! I am home with my own pets for most of the day. I also have grandchildren who visit several times a week. I have a fenced back yard. I have a small dog and a medium dog. Both are neutered males. I also have some reptiles and birds in the home.
“Excellent with my dog who is very anxious when situation is outside his norm. She plays with the dogs and keeps them happy and occupied. Highly recommend!”
“Monica was excellent. Our previous dog watcher moved so it was intimidating trying to find someone else. I feel like Monica was the best choice. She has a backyard and provided comfortable accommodations and space for Ginger. Her dog is also friendly! While we were away in Europe, she would send photos every day. It was comforting waking up to pictures of Ginger relaxed and happy. She was very communicative with us and caring with Ginger. I definitely recommend her to watch your furry loved one.”
“Carolyn really looked after our "baby" while we were unexpectedly out if town. She is a picky eater (the dog, that is) and Carolyn went out of her way to encourage her to eat, as well as giving us and update and photo every day. We will be very happy to be repeated customers for Carolyn in the future.”
“This was our very first time using Rover and also boarding our Bruno. Stephanie sent us multiple pics of our doggy having a good time. I felt he was loved and cared for which made our experience excellent. I highly recommend Stephanie and I look forward to working with her again.”
“After the meet and greet with Bobbye and her fur baby family I felt confident that my dog Penny would fit right in. While on our little vacay Bobbye sent pics and kept me updated on how Penny was doing. Everything turned out great for Penny!”
“Our kitty was very well cared for by Kayanna! Kayanna clearly communicated with us about drop off, all through the stay and pick up. Her home is as neat as a pin. She sent us pictures each day. I would contact Kayanna for pet sitting again. She genuinely loves animals!”
“Kyoko was truly an amazing sitter! Tobias immediately got comfortable with Kyoko and her two pups. She kept us up to date morning and evening with pictures, videos, and messages. She took him on walks and took very good care of our fur baby. Our pup loved staying with her and her family and we highly recommend her! We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Lynda was fantastic!! She accepted my booking with nearly no notice, and did a great job with my older dog, Leo. Her place has a great little fenced in area for dogs, and you can tell that she really cares about their well being and doing little things to make them more comfortable and happy during their stay with her. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always had a special love for animals. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs, from basic commands and potty training to teaching good manners and routines. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable! I’m currently not working and am looking for a part-time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I would love the opportunity to spend that extra time caring for your pups! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and care they deserve. I live in an apartment with plenty of room for pups to play and feel comfortable. I also have a crate available if your pup needs one! I have a friendly chocolate Lab of my own who loves meeting new friends and going to the dog park. I’d be happy to give your pup plenty of playtime, attention, cuddles, and love while they’re with me!
“Karen has been a Godsend for us! We have a Chihuahua in the final stages of Congestive Heart Failure and Karen provides her with first class care. Karen has looked after our kitties as well and they love her too!”
“Khea was amazing with my Diva! She even took a special christmas photo of her that I'm definitely going to frame. It really looked like she had a blast. Thank you so much Khea for taking good care of my sweet little girl while we were away!”
About: I've taken care of my own dog for 10 years and have had family, friends, and neighbors offer my services to take care of them for overnight care, walks, housesitting etc. I have a fairly open schedule as I have one class a day all week and very short practices as a student athlete at my college! I have plenty of time available to tend to your pet. I care for every pet like they’re my own, following their routines, giving them plenty of love and attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep their space clean and provide regular updates to their owners.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Portland
DeAnn was amazing. We were visiting the gulf and planned an outing Roo couldn't attend, so last minute, found DeAnn and she accepted. Roo got to hang out with DeAnn and her neighbor Fran. He was well loved on. Both ladies are super friendly and sweet. Thank you both!
This was the first time leaving our pup with anyone. Deann made us feel very comfortable. It was a very clean environment and Deann sent us pictures and updates about how our pup was doing. We were very happy with the care our pup received and will definitely be using Deann again.

There are 144 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Portland. About 93% of Portland sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
