1. Lisa W.

“It's been quite a while since we left our little boy with anyone other than family. We were a bit nervous initially how he would do with a bew peraon. We were very pleased with the care shown by Lisa during his stay. She was very atte tive to his needs and sent us lots of updates and pictures about how he was doing which helped ease our minds. We definitely recommend using Lisa if you need a Rover for your pooch.”


2. Susan H.

“This is our second time using Susan and our anxious dog feels really comfortable with her. She got lots of walks and I got lots of photos! We will be using Susan again!”


3. Michelle M.

“Michelle has been an exceptional sitter for our standard poodle. He enjoys daily park visits, swimming and lots of cuddles. It’s definitely a treat when our baby gets to stay with Michelle. Michelle is the kindest caretaker we have come across. She sends many pictures and videos to assure you that your baby is happy. We are return clients and happy for her services. She is reliable and flexible when emergencies arise. Thank you Michelle, you’re the BEST!!!”


4. Allyson H.

“Our boys (two 2 year old pups) loved their stay with Allyson! Plenty of hugs, playtime and outdoor fun. Excellent communication from Allyson with updates, pup pics and feedback. I will happily have our boys stay with Allyson again soon! 🐾 🐾”


5. Melissa A.

“I was so worried what to do with Isha when she was going to be needing somewhere to stay for 3 weeks, and Melissa and her family were just who she needed! Regular updates and pictures of my girl were so comforting, knowing that she was having a great time with a couple of girls and other dogs staying to give her plenty of attention while I was away :) In fact, when I came home she seemed ready to jump back into the car and head right back for another vacation for herself! Melissa was great tolerating her awful eating habits (eats or skips meals when she feels like it, and eats around kibble just for the canned goods) and had no problems at all with her medications. Thank you so much Melissa for taking care of my furry girl!”


6. Laurel J.

“My dog loved being with Laurel. So much so that she trotted up to the front door, wagging her tail the entire time when we returned. Loved the daily updates. I could tell Gigi had a great time as she was relaxed and happy when I picked her up.”


7. Brooklyn A.

“Brooklyn went above and beyond to accommodate Waffles and his car anxiety. He had a wonderful time with her and her pups (especially Tuna). I would not hesitate to leave Waffles with her again, or to recommend her to other pet parents.”


8. Lenore K.

“Lenore and Rook hosted Roscoe while I was away for new years. She provided lots of photos and updates to let me know that he was doing well and he seemed to be very happy when I picked him up. I would have Lenore watch Roscoe again in a heartbeat!”


9. Carol S.

“Carol is simply one of the best in her care for animals and for our aging dog who needed extra attention. She treated Bailey like he was one of her own. We will definitely use her again.”


10. Jocelynn A.
“My cats are afraid of everyone but they come out to spend time with Jocelynn. She truly has a gift. I've never met anyone so dedicated to caring for another species, be it a dog, cat, or chicken. You name it. Jocelynn will care for your animals. I feel like I am a good caretaker but she puts me to shame! If there is anyone I would trust with my pets it's Jocelynn.”


11. Melissa & Ryan W.

“Melissa and Ryan are very attentive and caring. Daisy enjoyed lots of fun play time and cuddles there! I would definitely use them again! They also dropped Daisy off at home. I so appreciated their care for her and all the pictures!”


12. Tami T.

“Tami was great with Brady! He was his curious self when I dropped him off and he was very comfortable. He was so calm and happy when I picked him up. Exceptional experience with Tami.”


13. Dolly L.

“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”


14. Ashley K.


“Ashley took wonderful care of our dog! She allayed any fears we may have had leaving Elliot with her for the first time by her knowledge, experience and genuine passion for animals! Her daily updates and pictures/videos were much appreciated. Elliot was definitely comfortable and happy during his stay with her. I'd highly recommend Ashley.”


15. Lauren C.

“Magnus had an amazing stay with Lauren and her sweet pup Ebey. He was able to play outside in the nice backyard and come and chill inside. Lauren sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. I think Magnus had the best time ever! Can’t wait to come over again soon!”


16. Erin W.

“Our dog had a great time during her 5-day stay with Erin & her family. Erin took her on daily outings - either to the dog park or on hikes. Those activities - & being able to play with Erin’s dogs kept her busy & also kept her usual anxiousness to a minimum. Erin sent photos & videos each day so we always knew what they’d been up to. I would not hesitate to recommend Erin & we’ll have our dog stay with Erin again!”


17. Leslie F.

“Our Bella had a good time with Leslie! It was her first time away from home and she came home happy and very excited. Leslie is very knowledgeable about dogs and gave us a lot of good feed back on things to work with our little Bella. Bella is a 1 and 1/2 year old pug. Thank you! K”


18. Jordan R.

“I couldn’t be more grateful to have found Jordan to watch my fur babe while I was on a trip. It’s very clear how much she cares, and I could tell how safe & cozy my babe was through the daily picture updates I received. As someone who tends to get anxious trusting others to take care of my babe, I had absolutely no worries & couldn’t be more appreciative of how well Jordan did in not only tending to her very particular routine but also making sure she felt loved while I was away. I’ll absolutely book again in the future!”


19. Michela S.

“Super helpful and appreciate her working with my stinker of a dog :)”




20. Trevor & Karen H.

“Trevor and Karen came through for us when our dog sitter fell through close to our trip date. They provided our Cavalier a sweet space to stay with plenty of attention and kept us in the loop with photos and updates. We really appreciated all of the effort and communication!”
