House Sitting in University Park, Portland, OR

“I was very picky with who I trusted, and Emily did not disappoint! I could tell all of my pets where well cared for while I was gone for a week. And when I came home, the place was even cleaner than I left it.”

“Jaimie was nice, sweet, attentive, responsive and took great care of our house and pup! We returned home and everything was as it was when we left, and Bobby was happy and healthy. I would definitely book Jaimie again and recommend her to others, we couldn't ask for anything more!”

“Did a great job with both of my dogs. The little one can be a little much with his behavior and took to Anthony right away. Kept the place clean and nice for my return.”

“Natasha was fantastic with my cat and dog during my recent week-long vacation! She showered them both with love and attention, and was especially attentive to my little dog, Celica, who is 19 years old, deaf and blind. Celica loves physical touch, and she especially loves to go outside and sniff the grass, etc. Natasha made sure she had lots of both during her stay. She even brought my cat a home-made catnip toy, which he loves! Natasha sent me daily updates and photos of their activities while I was away. When I returned from vacation, the animals were happy, my apartment was spotless, and all my mail had been collected for me. I definitely recommend Natasha as an animal caregiver, and I will ask for her next time I go on vacation!”

“Brian was terrific. A very caring and kind young man. After having surgery, I needed help with my pets so I saw him in action as he took care of their needs and making my recuperation period bearable. He is a young person who loves animals and my pets loved him.”

“Jaz was incredible! Gave me updates on everything I requested and was 100% responsive to my communications. They understood my stress about my dog who was recently diagnosed with Addison's and were very patient. I was worried I would have to apologize for my dog's constant attempts to get ground food on walks, but Jaz had a lot of experience and was patient with her as well. I hadn't left my baby alone for more than a day since COVID started, and Jaz went above and beyond to put me at ease.”

“Woody is amazing! I have chihuahuas and I'm always extremely worried about their safety, and one is on a strict medication schedule. I feel soooo lucky that I found Woody. He's safety conscious, trustworthy, reliable, asks good questions, anticipates like everything that could go wrong and addresses it beforehand. During my trip he sent tons of pictures, updates, and videos. He's great with my dogs and they love him. I didn't think it was possible to actually relax on my trip but thanks to him I did! I've had all kinds of experiences on Rover and he's definitely the best out there. Thank you Woody ☺️”

“Maggie took great care of my dog, Pepper. She sent regular updates and I could tell my dog was at ease with her. I’ll definitely be booking her services again!”

“So thankful to find Nicky after our other new sitter canceled. He sent lots of great photos, took Dolly on lots of walks, and our home was cleaned and well cared for while we were gone. We'll be booking Nicky again for sure!!”

“Sara came to my home and took care of my two Pomeranians for ten days. She did an excellent job. I was impressed that she followed their routine with walks around the neighborhood, and the dogs were so comfortable with her! They loved being held and brushed just as if I had been home. Like a lot of you, I hate to leave the little guys, but I was able to have a restful, stress-free vacation, knowing that they were home and well-cared-for. Sara's talent in photography shone in the photos she sent. Sara was also very flexible when my homeward flight was delayed, and that was a relief too. She left the house tidy and even baked a surprise batch of brownies as a welcome! It's a good feeling to know that there is someone who can take care of the dogs almost as well as I can if I have to be gone. I won't hesitate to make plans now that I know Sara is available.”

“Emily went above and beyond during her stay at our home with our dog, cat, and two chickens. Emily is a very descriptive, consistent, timely, and clear communicator. We got several updates and pictures throughout her time at our house, and she handled A LOT of difficult and unexpected challenges that occurred due to the weather. High winds caused a power outage and she was calm and communicative as things kicked back on, and she made sure our chickens were safe, warm, and had access to warm water during the Christmas ice storm. She even brought warm sugar water out to the hummingbirds who frequent our yard! We were so thankful and appreciative that Emily could stay an extra night while we dealt with flight cancellations. I cannot speak highly enough of Emily and her professionalism and superb care of our pets and home.”

“Amy is an absolute gem and wonderful caretaker when needing help watching my cat for both short and long term trips! Thanks to Amy I have full confidence in Peaches well-being when away for any duration and could not recommend her more! Initial set up went seamlessly, after first watch dropping in I could tell Peaches had a great time as while she is usually a bit unsure of new people she was calm as could be on my return! Fortunate to have Amy watch Peaches again on a long trip and be fully confident in Peaches stay. Amy was excellent at communicating during all stages of watch and went above and beyond what I could have expected with her kindness and care. Appreciate her attentiveness and flexibility when plans change as well! Overall can’t recommend enough!”

“Lillian was terrific with my pup. He was even recently neutered and required special attention and Lillian was able to accommodate us. I was very thankful!”

“Goes well out of his way to make sure your dog is taken care of. Paul managed an entire power outage situation with our dog and house while we were away and everything went smooth. He was overly willing to do what he could to help and we are truly grateful.”

“Wow. First time using Stefanee, but won’t be the last. What a special, sweet person. Took care of our baby and was really great to work with.”

“Matt was very good during our pet sitting experience. He provided photos and informative updates about our dog and even bought our dog a Christmas gift! He is very kind and patient with our nervous dog and we would certainly request his services again. He left the place same as we left it.”

“Alex was super flexible and understanding. He really took good care of my elderly kitty under the constraints of my old house under construction...and watered my 3 gardens during the hottest part of summer...everything was alive & well on my return...including miss picky eater kitty.”

“David is very professional. He was attentive to all details concerning our pup Georgia and our two cats. We felt very secure leaving our "kids" in his care and having him stay in our home. He updated us with daily reports and tons of great photos! He brought our boxer Georgia to our local dog park (as we had asked) most days. On our return, friends that also frequent the park, told us that they would try and come to the park when David was there so he could exercise their dogs too! Thank you so much David! When we need a pet sitter again... we will call "Dogman" :)!”

“Jonathan did an amazing job caring for my dog. My flight home was cancelled and he agreed to stay for 2 extra days. He took great care of my dog and managed her medication, and we came home to a happy dog and a clean house.”

“Carly was so incredibly helpful when our cat had some last-minute needs requiring medication administration and an adjustment to our schedule. Carly was communicative and accommodating and sent lots of reassuring updates and photos. Our cats are clearly very comfortable with Carly and we are so happy to have a such a trusted, capable, and kind sitter!”
