“Jennifer is such a wonderful dog walker! She is extremely thorough detailing every walk, how my dog is acting towards her and others as well as his eating/drinking habits. I love that she takes multiple pictures on the walks so I can see more of my dog’s activity. Jennifer is always really great about checking in and asking any questions that come up as well. Great at communicating with me always! It sounds like my dog gets super excited to see her everyday as well which is always great to hear ???”
About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.
“Marissa was so easy to work with. She was timely and her report was detailed. She took Winston for a long walk which is so important during our long work days! Thanks again! 5/5 ⭐️”
“My dog, Cocoa just adores Julie. That's no easy fete as Cocoa can be naughty (she's a puppy) from time to time. Julie is reliable and has great communication with me.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for friends, family and neighbors. I also have volunteered at a local dog rescue, and I would walk dogs. I also volunteered for a cat shelter where I would clean and assist in enrichment activities for the cats. I am currently working a remote part time job. I have plenty of flexibility and am also an early riser. My job is flexible, and I am able to flex my hours. I always ensure that I sick to mealtime schedules and enrichment times. I will also support crate training and potty training, if needed. Making sure that your pet is supported based on their individual needs is important to me.
“Helped me out in a last minute request! My pup was so settled after his walks, I knew they had a good time and quality exercise. Also got to meet her dog, very gentle and sweet. 10/10”

About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. Whether it be my own animals, friends, or neighbors, I am always there to help care for our furry friends. Through pet sitting, house sitting, walking, bathing, and playtime, your pet is sure to be in the best hands! I am currently a college student home for summer. I am looking for a part time job while doing this! I don’t have a specific work schedule yet but I will work with you and make sure your pet comes first. I am available mornings, evenings, and overnight. If I am working during the day, I will make sure it’s not over an extended period of time and the animal is well cared for!

“We’ve had Angela walk our dogs several times now while we’ve been out of town. They love her! She’s trustworthy and great with animals. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
About: I have a very positive personality that I bring out in all work that I do. I am a practicing Speech Language Pathologist with a 3 year old pup of my own—Louie. I have taken care of pets through rover, as well as used it for my own pet care needs. I moved around the Portland area a bit, so I took a break from Rover, but now my life is more settled and I’m happy to take your fur-babies on walks, or drop in! I live in Mountain Park and would be happy to cover any “last minute” dog needs that you have. My schedule will allow for 1-3 walks/drop in visits per day. My most availability is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I pride myself in being thorough and paying attention to detail. I will follow any and all instructions that you provide. Having a dog of my own, I can supply poop bags and treats if necessary.
“Our dog doesn't have a lot of experience with sitters, and Allison knew just how to patiently interact with her as she warmed up to her new friend. We're also going through a house move, so our pup and cats are going through lots of change. It feels good to know that Allison brings the experience we need as an animal lover.”
“Monica was very sweet with our little girl, showed up on time, and payed attention to details. We live in a condo with several different instructions on how to get int to the place and a gate code to leave and enter back onto the property. She never asked questions after the instructions were given! She got “it” the first time. She is bright and attentive, and again was very good to our little dog! I will have her back when I need a dog walker OR house sitter.”
About: Hi, I’m Mary! I live in West Linn and genuinely love spending time with dogs—whether that’s getting outside for a walk or just keeping them company at home. I started pet sitting because I enjoy the routine, the movement, and of course the dogs themselves. It never feels like “work” to me. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and little notes so you know how your dog is doing. I take the time to learn your dog’s personality and routine so they feel relaxed, safe, and well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I am retired, giving me a flexible schedule that easily accommodates daily walks and dependable, consistent pet care, so your pets feel loved every single day. I have decades of dog-care experience, from puppies to seniors, I provide dependable dog walking and drop-in services. Now retired, I focus on creating a safe, positive experience that keeps your dog happy and refreshed.
About: Ever since I was a little girl, my family has had dogs (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel’s) that I’ve helped take care of and watch. I’ve also helped neighbors and friends watch their dogs both bigger and small dogs as well. I’ve experienced dog-sitting for those who need a little more senior dog attention to younger dogs that are more playful, and have always been very good with animals. My schedule is currently can be flexible, so I can make time to hang out and play with your dogs or cats. I’m available weekdays during the day, generally after 10am and before 4pm I am very good with animals and helping them feel comfortable. For drop-in visits and dog-walking, I’m good at sending little updates on your pets with each visit.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! The last dog I had was for around 8 years. Unfortunately lost him to cancer a few months back.

Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog made all the difference. Finding someone you trust with your pet is extremely important, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found Marissa. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog.
Here’s a natural, Rover-style review you could post: Christopher was absolutely fantastic with our dog. From the moment we met him, it was clear that he genuinely loves and cares about animals. He was always on time, communicative, and went above and beyond during every visit. He took our dog on great walks around the neighborhood and even picked up the pace and ran with him when he wanted to run, which our dog absolutely loved. We came home to a happy, well-exercised pup every time. Christopher was reliable, attentive, and treated our dog like his own. We’ve used several dog walkers over the years, and Christopher is easily the best we’ve ever had. We wouldn’t hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog.
Sydney is amazing! I cannot say it enough. She is reliable and trustworthy, patient and flexible, and is so great with our animals - they love her. We have been so lucky to have had the pleasure to meet her and have her take care of our little ones. Thank you Sydney for all you do!!
