“Thank goodness for Grace! She is the dream pet sitter. She was so helpful, communicative, and most importantly made me feel so much better about leaving my kitty. So grateful for her!”
“I honestly can’t rave enough about how kind, patient and caring she is with our wild boxer pup. This is the 2nd time we book her and we are so happy with the amount of updates she shared with us.”
“Joseph made our first time using rover easy and stress free. He sent us frequent updates and pictures to let us know how jazzy was doing. He went out of his way to do a meet and greet with us before our trip. Asked questions to make our experience a smooth one. Jazzy and her family are a Joseph fan for sure!”
“Rooney joined me and my neurotic dogs for a 60 minute meet-and-greet walk: the dogs and I warmed to them instantly. My two boys are scrappy rescues with rough beginnings and Rooney's calm presence was very reassuring - I don't have any hesitation handing over the reins. The experience was better than perfect: 10 out of 5 stars.”
About: I started dog walking and doing cat play dates out of high school 11 years ago and loved it! I grew up with two large dogs and two cats in Portland, Oregon. Calm or animated, tall and long, short and stout, I take care of dogs & cats with all types of personalities, needs, and routines. I know dog & cat first aid through the American Red Cross and will go above and beyond to be a steward of your space. I study critical theory around the subjects of visual culture and land use at Portland State University online, so my schedule is open and adaptable to yours. My availability is completely open. I'm currently a student online, so I can adapt my schedule around whichever days and times you need help. I'm a patient, soft-spoken caretaker that allows a new fur friend to get to know me first. I'll walk the greenest routes in the area and cross the streets at the safest points. I walk at a steady pace and can check in with you and your pet during the walk or pet sit. We can play games or lounge around if that's more their style. I'll tend to your pet's grooming, diet, activity, and behavior specificities as well as any household tasks that accompany the visit.
“Kayla was professional, prompt, and courteous. She stayed in our home four nights taking care of our 10 week old Lab puppy. Not an easy assignment. Kayla followed his busy schedule and took amazing care of him. We would be thrilled to use her again!”
“Gabriana was so sweet with our anxious pup and met all of her specific needs. Gabriana also went above and beyond taking care of our home. We are very much looking forward to booking her again in the future!”
“I was so nervous to leave Olive alone. She is elderly and has a little trouble walking/balancing. Whitney and Lizzo were wonderful companions. I received frequent updates and photos, and when I came home after my 4 day trip, Olive was happy and relaxed. I’m so grateful to Whitney and have already rebooked her!”
“Rachael is the best! She has a natural understanding of dogs, and makes us feel totally comfortable going away for the weekend. One of our dogs is a rescue from the shelter with a bit of anxiety he still deals with, and Rachael knew just how to take care of him! Great house guest too.”
“5 stars ⭐️ Really amazing communication and care. Thank you for being so prompt, communicative and reliable. Ziggy was well exercised, fed and cared for throughout the 4 days we had and will definitely have you for long time stays in the future! Thank you for your professionalism! ?❤️ ZIGGY, Y + L”
“Bertha was very thorough, kind, and communicative throughout her stay. My apartment looked the same as when I left and my babies were happy! She has a passion for animals that is very evident and made me feel at ease leaving my animals.”
“Talia took amazing care of my dog Margot while I dealt with a family emergency. She sent the sweetest photos, and always updated me on Margot’s anxiety levels which put me at ease while I was away. So glad to have found her!”
“I have a reactive German Shepherd, and it can be difficult introducing her to new people. Lio (Jenny) was incredibly patient with us and very understanding of the challenges that come with having a reactive dog. I honestly thought I would never be able to get my dog to trust a new person, let alone leave her alone with them. But my dog felt safe and comfortable with Lio and took to them very well. We left for a 5-day trip, and Lio was very communicative and attentive to the dogs the entire time. Sent us plenty of pictures and videos. I could also tell our house was well taken care of. I feel so relieved to have found someone like Lio that I can truly trust to take care of my babies”
“Jennifer was fantastic looking after my two Bengal cats. She was punctual, extremely responsive and sent photos every day that showed me how comfortable the cats were with her. I’ll definitely be using Jennifer again.”
“Lauren took care of our black lab and bunny for 10 days over the holiday and she did a great job! We don't normally leave for so long so we were worried about leaving them with a new person but Lauren was very sweet to them and very communicative with us. She sent pictures and updates daily and was flexible with us when our travel plans changed. And it was so nice to come home to such a clean apartment! We will definitely hire Lauren again and recommend her to our friends!”
“Emily is so wonderful! She shared so many great updates and truly takes the responsibility of caring for your fur kids seriously <3 Could not recommend enough.”
“Jasnik was sweet and compatible with my furry pal nando! He immediately took to liking her and felt safe and cared for. She followed directions to the T and i will definitely ask her to care for Nando again in the future! ☺️”

Dee was truly amazing! I swear he might actually be a dog whisperer. My dog Blossom absolutely loved him and was so happy and comfortable with him. He was incredibly communicative while I was away, and I felt completely comfortable and assured the entire time knowing my dog and my home were in such good hands. He sent thoughtful updates, was attentive to everything, and clearly cared about making sure Blossom was happy and well taken care of. He also took incredible care of my home and left it even better than he found it. It’s rare to find someone you feel this comfortable trusting with both your pet and your home. I would have him back in a heartbeat and highly recommend you reach out to him!
Absolutely phenomenal! I'd give her 6 stars, for real. 1 year ago I went out of town and when I got back a whole slew of major health problems hit both my cats hard (not the fault of the pet sitter at the time). I was terrified of going on vacation again; I had PTSD. For over a year I refused to go out of town. Then I met Claire. Claire went above a beyond to make sure I felt connected to my two senior cats 100% of the time I was away and I never once felt uneasy. I was able to actually enjoy my vacation for the first time in a very long time. She was perfect. A breath of fresh air. She kept me updated regularly and frequently with pictures and texts. Actually one of my cat's conditions, he has a compressed nerve near the back of his spine, actually improved while she was watching them. He jumped on the bed to be with her which is something he rarely does, and does only with me. She followed my instructions to a T and was very flexible. She respected my home. I also think she did some light cleaning because it felt cleaner than I left it. I will definitely seek her out the next time I go on vacation. If you're on the fence I promise you it is money well spent. She puts your animals before herself and she will go to great lengths to make sure they are cared for while you're away. The money is well worth the peace of mind. I almost feel like I got a bargain. Thanks again Claire!!!
Wow! Pixie went “above and beyond” in caring for my Cookie who has separation anxiety. I was so worried leaving her, not knowing how she would handle this 3 day break. But with Pixie spoiling her and sending me multiple videos I was able to relax and enjoy my weekend. Book with Pixie! Your pet will thank you. Not only is Pixie energetic and loving, she knows a lot about dogs and how to care for even a spoiled pup.
Dominique took great care of our dog and our home while we were away. We’re always a little nervous the first time our dog meets a sitter because she can be shy at first, and she’s reactive with other dogs, so it takes a calm and confident dog lover to make us all feel at ease. Dominique is fantastic! Kona felt comfortable with her very quickly. She asked great questions when we first met, making sure she understood Kona’s personality and routine. She sent us adorable updates throughout the stay, and we came home to a clean, tidy house and a happy dog. 10/10 recommend!
Brigette was incredible! She was punctual and communicative through and through. We felt such a sense of peace while away knowing that our beloved cat (and home) would be cared for in all the important ways. Whenever we travel again, can only hope that Brigette will be available:)
Jessica took excellent, loving care of our dog and cat while we were out of the country for a week. She took many pics and shared frequent updates with us, and put our minds and hearts at rest that they were being taken care of wonderfully. Our worry now is that our dog and cat will miss her too much! We will not hesitate to recommend her services and call on her again. Thank you, Jessica!
Amanda house-sat and took care of Cricket while we were away on a long trip. Her daily photos and updates helped us feel secure and never worried. Cricket seemed to have a great time, and our apartment was cleaner when we got back than it had been when we left! Thanks Amanda :)
Ninon is our first rover choice. She is reliable, dependable, and wonderful with our dog. Would definitely rebook her and I would suggest you do too! She jumped in for us last minute when another rover person we booked with backed out with short notice. Our dog also has special needs and Ninon handled her beautifully! While she is more expensive than some others, you are paying for peace of mind with your animal while you’re away. I really don’t think I could have said the same with the other provider we had initially booked at a lower cost. So ultimately, that decision and Ninon are absolutely worth it.
