“We were very happy having our dog Rita stay with Crystal and Joel. Rita is timid and, during our meet and greet, they both took their time getting to know her. They have a good understanding of different dog temperaments and which dogs get along well for group interaction. On Rita’s first day visit Crystal took time to introduce her to other dogs slowly. Rita came home happy and tired. We’ll be booking additional play days and an extended boarding time with them. Joel and Crystal are highly recommended!”
“Denise was the best with our little yorkie while we were in town for a graduation. She took care of him during the day and he was calmer than usual and happy! Thank you again Denise!”
“Thank you so so much for being patient with little ball of anxiety. I am so glad Oaks liked it. I highly highly recommend Valerie. Thank you also for keeping me in the loop with how she was doing, it helped me :)”
“Annie had a great day with Joshua, Jennifer and company! She made friends with new humans, dogs and cats, and I managed to catch up on several things at home. Annie will go back again next week. I feel quite secure about her care there and she was happy and relaxed when I picked her up.”
“Michelly was WONDERFUL!! Sophie has separation anxiety having been glued to me during the pandemic. She was calm and patient with Sophie....they had fun being with the other dogs and with her 7 month old!!! It was relaxing for Sophie. Great place with a perfect backyard! You can tell Michelly LOVES dogs. So happy to find a good, knowledgeable, reliable doggy day care sitter! Thanks Michelly!”
“We had to make a couple of changes to the times and dates of our dog sitting sessions. Diane was extremely accommodating and did a really nice job of spending some one on one time with our dog, who can get a little anxious when we leave him. Thank you Diane.”
“I actually met jamie at the dog park and have had her as my dogs sitter since he was about 4 months old. Her and her kids treat him great and give him lots of love and exercise. I decided to give her a review in hopes it'll help someone else decide to go with her.”
“This was my first time leaving my pup with someone new, so naturally I was a little nervous—but they totally put my mind at ease! They were super attentive with my little spoiled brat (and I say that with love 😄). He was always wagging his butt and happy to go back, which says it all. I really appreciated how they noticed he was picky with food—he wouldn’t eat there, but they still checked in and made sure I knew. He had plenty of playtime and always came home happy and tired, which is a win in my book! I didn’t want him going on walks because of his reactivity to cars, and they totally respected that—he got plenty of backyard play instead. Bonus points for being flexible with my chaotic work schedule. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“It is impossible to say enough wonderful things about Talitha (Tilly). Our staffy/husky/shepherd boy is our world and we are very picky about his care. He was in excellent hands with Tilly. She is so caring and loving. She sent us pictures of his walks and him lazing around at her house looking very cozy. We knew he felt at ease and so did we. And when a work trip delayed travel plans, she worked with us to provide last minute care as well. We will absolutely be using her in the future. She is an absolute delight (and our boy agrees!)”
“Jojo was well taken care by Jan and her grandchildren. Having them there was a real plus. Jojo loves kids. I would definitely use Jan again if we ever needed a dog sitter again in the Eugene area!”
“Heather loves our pup like he was her own! Our pup is showered with love, attention and gets 2 walks while at Heathers house for doggy day care! I appreciate she’s been very accommodating to any rules/ behavior things we’ve been focusing on and continues to reinforce what we’re working on. I feel so comfortable leaving our pup in Heather’s loving care and I’m so thankful we found her!”
About: I have grown up with animals, long before I can remember, and love being able to provide attention for my friend’s pets when out of town! I treat all animals as if they are my own with lots of love, activity, and treats! I am currently working part time as a nurse and have plenty of time to play with your furry friends on my off days! I have a 5 year old friendly corgi who makes a fantastic play mate. I live near trails and love going on walks, hikes, and getting outdoors! My schedule is very flexible and can accommodate last minute needs! While I live in a dog friendly apartment and do not have my own fenced backyard, I live near plenty of walking trails and love to get outside myself. I have my own pup at home to keep yours company and will be present at all times to ensure they are safe and comfortable. I live in a two bedroom apartment and can separate my dog if needed.
“Jen and Josh are wonderful to work with - dog lovers, very knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. They have an excellent set-up for a fun, safe "day camp" for dogs with different natures - active, chill, aloof, garrulous! Our little tugger is a playing machine, and initially presents as intense, so I wasn't sure if he'd fit in. Before taking us on, Jen and Josh met with us in person at their location, and on day 1, I felt that they were observing him carefully, based on Jen's updates. When visit #2 rolled around, as soon as we got to the front entrance where Jen was waiting, I became non-existent and the tugger embarked on a great day! I'm truly grateful to have found this setting- the tugger benefits greatly from the socializing and activity, and it happens in a secure place with attentive and caring humans!”
“Our dog was so happy and well cared for by Rachel. He stayed with her and we received multiple pictures of his day. Rachel was flexible with our times that care was needed and made the process so much better. We had a wonderful experience with Rachel and trusted completely that Thor would be well cared for.”
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds, shapes and sizes since childhood- dogs, cats, horses, and goats to name a few! For over a decade I worked as a Professional Pet Sitter, caretaking animals of all breeds, shapes, sizes and needs. I have a special place in my heart for seniors, puppies, kittens and animals with special needs such as medication or behavioral support. One of my core beliefs is that animals have an intuitive nature that can teach us a lot if we are willing to listen. I am excited to get to know your companions and their unique needs to help them feel right at home! I work part time from home, so pet care and dog walks are easily integrated into my daily schedule. My large backyard also allows for multiple potty breaks and play time throughout the day. One of my core beliefs is that animals are intuitive beings that deserve respectful relationships! I build relational trust through listening to what they may be trying to communicate and learning what unique traits each animal possesses. My home environment is quiet and private!
“Kaylee is amazing. I'm so grateful my Puppy got to spend a few days with her! She took adorable photos of his experience and came home tired from playing. Best of all, he got to meet a cat, which was on his bucket list :)”
“Our dog Dexter has Cancer and we were very worried to leave him alone for an extended period of time. Kari made sure he was safe and sound the entire time we were away. She sent us plenty of updates and photos to put us at ease. We were very happy with our sitter experience with Kari and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter who has older dog experience. 15 out of 10.”

Ginger is fantastic! We had a wonderful experience with her, as she treated Peanut with great care and love, ensuring she felt comfortable and secure during her stay. Ginger was extremely friendly and welcoming, creating a warm and positive environment. Her place was well-maintained, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Peanut was in a safe space. Throughout the day, Ginger shared pictures of Peanut's activities along with some of the other "guests." We highly recommend Ginger to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Tania was amazing once again! She came through on short notice and took great care of Max. My schedule can be a bit unpredictable, but she was super flexible and accommodating. Max had a blast playing in the backyard and always goes in wagging and happy. So grateful for her care!
McKenna watched lucky while we attended U of Os graduation. She asked all the right questions on Luckys care and she treated him like a king. He’s an older boy and when we picked him up he was well rested. Sometimes the stress of not being with his humans causes him not to eat but he ate two meals with McKenna!

My first time using Rover and my #1 criteria was to find a daycare situation which matched or closely resembled my dog's living situation...which is just him and I...no other pets, kids or too many people. Noemi was a PERFECT match😁 We did a meet and greet the previous day which went very well. My dog is a senior but I knew if he felt relaxed he would most likely sleep much of the day aside from his joy at going on walks...which is what happened. Also my schedule was not exact per se so I greatly appreciated Noemi being flexible in that context. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Noemi and would happily hire her again.
Jennifer and Josh are absolutely incredible! They are genuine, trustworthy, and truly have a deep love for dogs. We could not have asked for better people to care for our little boy, Max. From the moment we met them, we knew he was in the best hands. They treated Max like one of their own, giving him all the love, attention, and care he needed while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was safe, happy, and truly cared for. We trust them 100% and would recommend them to anyone looking for someone to love and care for their dog the way they would themselves. Thank you, Jennifer and Josh — you’re amazing!
I have a normal dog sitter but they were out of town for the holidays. I'm new to the Eugene area, so I don't really know many people yet, which led me to finding a sitter on Rover. I was nervous, but Faith took great care of my little girl. I'm glad that I was able to find a trustworthy care giver on such short notice.
