“Christopher is a great dog walker. He is very considerate and always gives us a heads up before coming in the house to get our dog (in case we’re there). He took our dog Aggie on really nice long walks.”
“Corinne was a pleasure to work with. She’s ultra communicative and will ask for clarity and how to work best with your dog. I needed help because of injury for walking, and Corinne was available to help despite a full schedule. Thankfully we both had the ability to be flexible. If you’re able to get in time with her, lucky you and your pup. I appreciate she gives you a heads up before heading out to your way.”
“Leah was great with Buddy and Papa Bear and brought some treats for them and was very gentle with the boys. I know they can’t wait for future walks with her!! 🐾”
“Kat is great at communicating and takes great pics! She’s thorough in her rover cards which is fun too. Pip enjoys her company and I’ll keep using her in the future.”
“I really appreciate Ashley. She hung out with my pup during the heat wave and made sure he stayed hydrated. Most importantly, Ashley notified us when she noticed our pup wasn’t being himself and we got the care we needed to for him. She’s a great communicator and I would love to have her again.”
“Lucinda has been a wonderful addition into our pups life! This is our first time using Rover so we were a little uneasy, but Lucinda made it extremely easy to entrust a stranger with our Oreo girl. She came over for a meet and greet and is wonderful with our pup. She provided the walks in the time frame we requested and provided detailed updates with lots of pictures. We definitely feel comfortable with her taking care of our pup and highly recommend her! Thank you Lucinda!!”
“I am so happy that I found Atlas! They are reliable, punctual, and truly care about my dog’s well-being. My pup always comes back happy and well-exercised after their walks. Communication is excellent. I highly recommend their services to any pet owner looking for someone trustworthy and attentive!”
“This is the second time I booked with Ariana. She is responsible, shows on time, and listens carefully to the given instructions. I also was informed on how the walks went with Pipa, as she does not warm up easy when she meets new people in general. I will book with her again!”
About: The first pets I ever sat were my neighbors horses. Soon after, a forest fire came through and I had people bringing me wild rabbits and birds to rehab. The critters have gotten much more standard since - cats, rodents, birds, reptiles, and aquatic friends. My own cat is an old curmudgeon with sad kidneys so I know how important food quality and consistency is. I know not to overfeed fish and can do partial water changes if you'd like. I work a desk job at a nonprofit by day and frequently volunteer for a different nonprofit by night. These take me across a decent swathe of the metro. WALKS are available at a discounted rate in SE Woodstock. Just let me know when you request. Show me your routine and I'll keep it consistent. I don't allow dogs to jump on me and there are dogs that sit only for me. I have been told that my love language is competence and I love every critter in my care. For house sitting stays, I may bring a human guest by for extra company, depending on the critter.
“New client soon to be regular here! Sequoia did an amazing job taking care of my dog during the heatwave. I appreciated her consideration in avoiding excessive heat exposure and her attention to detail in handling my leash reactive dog. Communication was great, photos are even better. Thanks so much Sequoia!”
“Ryenne is fantastic! My dog Brewer has a tendency to be stubborn on walks and she does an awesome job of handling and encouraging him to walk while they are out. I appreciate her responsiveness, updates, and pictures. 10/10 would recommend”
“McKenzie is great! Confident even with my dog who can exhibit dog aggression and I can tell she really gets joy from spending time with Cully. Have booked her for ongoing walks and am thrilled to have her care for my dog. She communicates timely and intentional and is punctual as well when arriving for her walks.”
“Olivia, is very knowledgeable about dogs and leads them exceptionally well. Spartacus has obedience training but stills pulls on the leash during walks. Olivia handle that just fine and Spartacus was on his best behavior. I recommend Olivia highly.”
About: I have been taking care of my own pets as well as my neighbors and friends pets since I was a kid. I have taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and fish. I am beyond excited to meet and take care of new furry friends! I am currently a student in college with a variety of classes throughout the day, but I have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pets throughout the day and my late afternoons are very free. I always try to make animals feel safe and calm even in their own homes. They can get nervous when a new person is around and I promise to do everything in my power to make sure they have a fun time.
About: NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN THE SELLWOOD/WESTMORELAND/WOODSTOCK/MILWAUKIE/ SE AND SW PORTLAND AREAS! Hello, I'm Liz! I started my dog sitting career in Seattle and have been living in Portland now for a little over 6 years. I really love all the dogs I've had the pleasure of meeting and spending time with. I have owned and taken care of all different kinds of dogs throughout my lifetime. Big, small, puppies, you name it! Not only do I have quite a few repeat clients but I've dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family members many times over the years. I am trustworthy, dependable, and always full of energy, just like your pooch! I am always respectful when in a client's home, leaving everything just the way you left it. I pay attention to detail and most importantly, your pets behaviors. Some of the things I like to know about your pet are their favorite toys/hobbies, triggers, and whether or not they have any separation anxiety. Every dog I watch I make sure is comfortable and happy, that is what's most important to me. The fun and attention shouldn't stop while you're away! I currently do not have any dogs of my own because I live in an apartment and if I were to have a dog, I would want to give them the life they deserve. Being on Rover gives me the opportunity to be around dogs, as animals are one of the things that truly make me happy. When your dog is happy, I'm happy. I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday and go into the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So dogs would need to be okay with being along 8-9hrs on Tuesday and Thursday. I prefer to take jobs that are close to my home so I can give your dog all the attention they need. If you have any additional questions I'm more than happy to answer them! Pet care fits into my daily routine well. I typically get up early to provide long walks in the morning and in the evenings as well. Dogs should have at least one long walk a day with a few other short walks as needed for potty breaks and to let the energy out. At this time I only provide house sitting services in clients' homes. I am respectful of all client's spaces, making sure to clean up after myself and your lovely pooch before departing after a visit. I prefer providing house sitting this way because being in a familiar environment reduces the amount of stress on your dog. I try to spend as much time in the home as possible so that they always have a friend around to give them pets and cuddles <3 I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I do have to go the office in Beaverton on Tuesdays and Thursdays so dogs would need to be okay being alone for 8+ hours. I always make sure to leave a client's home just as or better than I found it! As an avid outdoors person this is my life motto. I have pets of my own so I always make sure to close doors immediately when I enter and leave.
About: I have owned a dog my whole life, and I love hanging out with them. Dogs I've interacted with like me as much as I like giving them attention. My current work is flexible, so I can be with your dog whenever they need attention--any time of the day, any day of the week. I am always looking to offer the best experience to the dogs I work with, and I trust in owners to know and communicate what is best for their dog.

Kelly T.
“I used to fill the robot feeder and go away for the weekend without a second thought. My cat was always a little stressed/weepy and clingy when I'd come home. I went away for a full week and had Kelly come over every day to keep him company. When I finally got home, Zim couldn't care less. I'd call that a success! Kelly even rescued my potted fiddleleaf fig. It was down to two very curled leaves on a 5ft stem. She knew what it wanted and it had a big new leaf a month later.”

Both of my dogs love hanging with Liz and I'm so thankful I can trust Liz with my pups.... I tend to be a bit anxious about who is caring for my dogs and I always feel comforted knowing that Liz is looking after them.”
