“John is amazing. Our little Arlo is afraid of everyone (except John) He almost didn’t want to come home with us. He took such good care of him. He will always be my go-to. One thing, your pup may be lackluster the next day from the exercise he got and missing John.”

About: 🐾 Hey there! I'm Emily, a passionate pet-sitter with a lifelong love for animals. Growing up, pets were always a part of my family, teaching me the importance of care and communication. I understand how hard it can be to leave your furry friend behind when you're away, which is why I strive to provide a loving and attentive experience for both you and your pet. I ensure they receive the same love and attention they would get at home. Can't wait to meet your adorable furry friend! 🐾 I am available mornings and evenings everyday. I work from home so I have the flexibility to check on your pet throughout the day or work from where ever your pet is! I care for animals by listening. Pets tell you what they need a lot of the time! Whether we are going on long walks, going to the dog park or just hanging out at home I’ll make sure your pet has a friend!

“Anne is the best! She very obviously cares a lot about all dogs, but especially the ones in her care. She sent me lots of updates, photos, and videos - possibly more than she normally might because this was the first time I’d ever been apart from my dog and was a little nervous! She asked me great questions and was very considerate; for example asking first if it would be ok to give my dog a certain treat. She’s very mindful of animal interaction and knows each dog and situation are different. This was my first Rover experience and I hope they’re all as good as this was. Thank you Anne!”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with a cat who was much more than a pet—because I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, she was my best friend and constant companion. Later, after meeting my husband, who had a dog, I discovered how much joy dogs bring and how different, fun, and rewarding it is to spend time with them. Now that my own children are older and more independent, I finally have some time to do something I’ve wanted for a while: care for other people’s dogs. Spending time with animals truly makes me happy, and I would love to give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I’ve looked after dogs in my home and understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs love long walks and playtime, while others just want a quiet companion nearby. I’ll happily follow your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care. I pay close attention to the little details, carefully follow your instructions, and treat every pet like family. I’ll also send regular photos and updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m available for afternoon walks during the week, as well as boarding. Your dog will have regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. They will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and a cozy place to rest. . My children are older. They’re gentle and respectful, and they’ll happily play with your dog if that’s something your dog enjoys. I’ll also send regular photo updates, so you’ll always know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Meagan was great!- she saved me from a travel nightmare when i lost my petsitter due to airline cancellations & rebooking. She accommodated my schedule last-minute, had no problem administering meds to my hyperthyroid cat (and didn’t blink at my 3+ page pet-sitting instructions, which have gotten embarrassingly long & detailed), & endured all of my anxiety and (likely too frequent & annoying) check ins & inquiries about their welfare while I was away with good humor & kindness. The cats seemed happy & calm when i returned after a week away, which is all I really care about!- but she also was very respectful of my home, leaving everything clean & in order, even washing the linens & towels (which I consider above & beyond, but is certainly appreciated)! I will definitely seek out Meagan’s assistance with my kitties again, & absolutely recommend her to anyone in & around Portland looking for trusted help with their pets 🙏❤️🐱🐱❤️”

Leaving your pet can be nerve-wracking, but Lauren made sure to keep me updated on how Mimi was doing and made sure to give her adequate playtime during visits. I highly recommend.”

“My Rosie first met Matt when his partner was her primary sitter and she has been obsessed with him for well over a year. His wonderful partner is no longer dogsitting in the area so Matt joined Rover himself bc he loved the dogs so much and I could not be more grateful. He keeps her active enough that Rosie is tired when she gets home but most importantly I appreciate knowing she’s going to be loved on all day. Matt is flexible and super communicative plus he takes great pictures - I would recommend him without any hesitation.”

“Emily and Kieran took a very good care of our dog! They were very accomodating even on the last minute notice, and were very flexible on the timing, which we really appreciate :) They took Ohsam out for a walk several times, gave lots of loves and cuddles. I can see Ohsam had a great time with the family! Would recommend them during our next visit in Portland. Thank you!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and even horses and chickens since I was twelve. Reliable for pet sitting and walking. I work full time from home so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to drop in visits, walks, potty breaks, etc. I work full time from home, so I have a lot of flexibility to do morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins, and am also able to offer to do overnights on weekends or weekdays. I will look after your pet like it was my own. I am very courteous and respectful of other peoples spaces and I will give your animals the care they need and modify that care according to your preference/specifications.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of family and friends since I was in my teens, but more extensively in college and since. For 3 years I boarded and sat for three different family friends. I’ve personally helped raise 3 dogs and 2 cats. I’ve even helped herd sheep and tamed alpacas! I work nearly full-time as a server at a restaurant, so Wednesday to Saturday night I’m unavailable for somewhere between 6-9 hours on those days. When I have my off days I’m usually at home or out for a walk. I’m usually efficient with my errands and have extensive free time on off days. My apartment is a one bedroom, so if I’m not playing around the apartment with the pet, I’d want to bring them on a walk or to the park. I have a very comfortable bedroom conducive to nap time, and I live in the heart of Old Port. Whenever I am with pets in my house I am always looking to set up a cozy space for them to relax with blankets, pillows, their favorite toys. I try to make them feel like a proper guest in my home like anyone else. My apartment is always very quiet despite being downtown, but I would hope to find activities we could do in and around Portland to help keep them active and entertained.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for my whole life! I have experience with dogs of many sizes and breeds, cats, cows, and chickens. Walking dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I have worked for a dog walking company for the past 3 years. Also, I have worked on multiple farms where I’ve cared for farm animals and dogs/cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I’m working a remote part-time job which leaves me with plenty of time to walk dogs throughout the day and in the evening. Additionally, I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. If I am caring for your pet in your home I will make sure to follow whatever schedule you have for them. I will take them out to play often and give them lots of love.

About: I raised, trained, and cared for my family dog from a puppy when I was in high school. Post college I adopted a senior dog and cared for him for the last couple of years of his life. In the meantime I have been a sitter for friends and family dogs and cats over the years. I am used to giving medications (even when it needs to be disguised) and staying on a feeding schedules. I am very up for caring for senior dogs who want to lay around the house, and equally ready to go on long walks with a dog with more energy. I work from home always, so will be around during the day for pups who like to hang! I'm on the East End of Portland with the Eastern Prom very close by so plenty of places to walk and explore. I am usually out and about in the evenings for a few hours at a time. On the weekends I like to be busy, but can certainly adjust my time when I have a dog or cat around. I have a large one bedroom, and am on the 3rd floor. So my place is likely not good for pets with mobility issues (unless they are small enough that I can carry them). I live very close to lots of nature easily accessible and make a point to get outside often.

About: I've always loved animals, work for a veterinarian, have 2 dogs of my own (ages 13 and 16!). In addition to caring for the pets of friends and neighbors, I just genuinely love interacting with animals. I work part time for a veterinarian, so I'll have a lot of time to help out with your cats and dogs! In addition to basic needs, I plan to play snuggle and love on your pets. In and around your home, I will take your dogs for walks and playtime. For cats, I will make sure they are fed and not too lonely.

I have a flexible schedule when I’m in town but I travel once a month for a few days. I’m seeking arrangements that are aligned. I’d be happy to provide walks, drop in to the dog’s home to care for them or care for the dog for a half day or longer in my home. I have a fenced in yard.

About: I’ve cared for dogs while their families are away, providing lots of attention, regular walks, and dependable care. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priority. I’m available most days and prefer to schedule in advance when possible. However, I can often accommodate same-day requests and strive to provide prompt, reliable service. Pets are cared for with close attention to detail and provided comfortable spaces to relax. After each stay, everything is thoroughly cleaned to ensure a fresh, safe environment for every dog.

About: I love animals! I have had my own cat for 12 years, grew up with both cats and dogs, and have dog walked outside of Rover for some time! It is a pleasure to help other pet owner's with their babies while they are away or busy. As a pet owner myself I understand the trust needed when allowing someone time with your pet and always keep that top of mind! Looking to assist with dog walking and cat/dog drop ins to feed and take care of pets while owner is busy. Would love to set up regular walks/ drop ins. I currently work full time from home and am able to take breaks for walks/ drop ins. I am also typically available on weekends as well for walks and drop ins. I am happy to drop in and take care of your pet in your own home, or take your pup for walks! I live in a dog friendly apartment with my own cat but prefer to take care of your pets in your own space.

“In NEED of a dog walker while recovering from foot surgery, I found Alejandro here on Rover. I chose Alejandro after reading many walker profiles and one review stood out which ultimately helped me make the decision. Alejandro has been very easy to work with, I booked for reoccurring walks for the time I am incapacitated, he has a planned vacation in the middle of my needs. We worked out a schedule that would meet both of our needs. After a few days of being laid up, no one was helping with my pups morning walks. Asked Alejandro if he was available to do mornings and he could! What good luck?! Communication has been great, pup is panting and happy when he gets home, and the rate fits my budget. Thank you Alejandro! Enjoy your vacation and we will see you when you return!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life—from Cavapoos to Corgis to Wheaten Terriors to Doodles, to Boxers! I’ve also had the pleasure of having a Goldendoodle of my own as well! My sweet pup was in an accident and required lots of specific care such as wound care and medication administration for many months. I am a very patient and dedicated pet sitter and will treat your pet like my own. I’ll keep them safe, make sure they get the attention they need, and assure that you get the updates you crave while away from your bestie. I absolutely love animals and I also know how challenging it can be to have peace of mind while maintaining your life responsibilities outside of your furry friends—I hope to have the opportunity to take that stress off of your plate! I’m currently in grad school for Speech Language Pathology (classes are online until January 2027) and work per diem at the hospital. I have two shifts per week serving at a restaurant in Portland as well, they are typically 6-8 hour shifts so if booked for an overnight, there may be a day or two that I am away for that amount of time! Otherwise, my schedule is super flexible and perfect for that mid day potty and play break! Safety is first! You tell me how you like things to go in your home and what makes your pet the most comfortable and I’ll make sure it happens! Let me know if your pet has any anxieties in public and I’ll keep in mind ways to keep them happy and calm on walkies!

About: We love taking care of dogs! We are the go-to pet sitters for our friends and family, and now that we are up in Portland, would love to be the go-to sitter for your pup! We've cared for a range of dogs, from puppies to senior pups, and all sizes in between. We have a wonderful 5-year old rescue pup named Dill. He is extremely sweet and does well with other dogs at the dog park and obedience classes. We request that all dogs that stay with us for doggy day care or boarding are friendly with other dogs. We do have space to keep pups separated for breaks, if needed. We both currently work full time jobs away from home, Mon - Friday 9-5, so would not be able to care for dogs that can’t be left alone for the workday. We would still take your pup out for a lunchtime potty break! During the week, our evenings are typically spent at home and the weekends are usually open! We currently live in a large 1 bed apartment with our rescue dog Dill. Your pup would be the only additional dog that we care for and we would introduce them to our pup at a comfortable pace! We have a partially-enclosed backyard and are near the Western Promenade for adventures.

About: I have pet sat for neighbors, friends and family for six years where I was responsible for walking and feeding their animals. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd and have been walking dogs since I was 10. I am an Elementary School Teacher so I am looking for something part time or full time for the summer months. I am also looking to continue my services when the school year starts in September. I currently have two cats of my own who get along very well with other animals. My parents dog stays with me as well on some weekends. I have a large park near my apartment and my parents dog really enjoys running around there. I am an elementary school teacher, so I will be available mostly full time during the summer months and then I will transition into a part time schedule when school starts back up in the fall. I have two cats of my own, so your pet will have fur friends to play with when/ if they stay at my home. Right next to my home I have a large park that residents take their pets to. I would also love to take your pet to a nearby dog park, that way they can socialize in a safe space!

“Anne is the best! She very obviously cares a lot about all dogs, but especially the ones in her care. She sent me lots of updates, photos, and videos - possibly more than she normally might because this was the first time I’d ever been apart from my dog and was a little nervous! She asked me great questions and was very considerate; for example asking first if it would be ok to give my dog a certain treat. She’s very mindful of animal interaction and knows each dog and situation are different. This was my first Rover experience and I hope they’re all as good as this was. Thank you Anne!”

“Lindsay was great! We were traveling to Portland from out of town and she was very clear and prompt with communication to arrange plans. The girls had a relaxing evening with Lindsay.”

“Kathleen made the process of booking easy and was very accommodating when I needed to modify the reservation slightly. She offered to do a meet and greet with my dog before the drop off. All went smoothly during the two-night stay. I am grateful for the care she provided.”

“Kelly was the perfect sitter for our Winnie! Winnie stayed with Kelly for 2 days and 1 night. Kelly and Winnie bonded immediately and she was totally comfortable in the home. Lots of walks, play time and snuggles! Kelly sent us many photos and catered to Winnie's every need. She will definitely be staying with Kelly again in the future! Highly recommended!”

“Lindsay was so great! My two cats were only with her for a short stay but she was very responsive, sent updates with photos, and followed their care instructions incredibly precisely. My boys seemed to come back super comfortable and happy.”

“This was Maizy’s second visit with Dill, Ike and Lucy. It’s obvious they love dogs! Their yard makes it easy for Maizy to go out. She was up early going for walks. The pictures we received showed how happy Maizy was on her vacation! Thanks guys!”

“Justin was fabulous with our boy Seamus! He took Seamus on many hikes and walks with his precious dog Lulu and sent pictures and videos everyday. Justin went above and beyond for Seamus and even took him for a pup cup and gave him a bath. Seamus was beyond well cared for - he became a welcomed member of Justin's family. Would highly recommend Justin to care for anyone's pets - he was wonderful!”

“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”

About: While I am new to Rover, I have lots of experience dog and cat sitting for friends and family. My whole life there’s been a rotation of dogs in my home (my parents never bothered getting a dog because we watched our friends’ so often) and in recent years I frequently do house visits to feed and entertain pets. I have had a cat before who I loved wholeheartedly and I would love to take care of yours. Please consider me as a candidate to help your family. Thank you! I have a flexible work schedule, so I can dog walk almost any time of day. However, I am not home all the time if your pet needs 24 hour care. For overnight jobs, happy to take your pet to my house or stay at yours. House is not puppy proof but I would be happy to set up an area for them. I have no pets at home.

“Katherine did an amazing job with Boone. He was well rested and not anxious at all when I picked him up. She was very flexible and communicative during his stay. I was very happy!”

About: 35 years of experience caring for dogs, puppies, kittens & cats. I’m good with anxious dogs & scaredy cats. I have a flexible schedule, let me know how I can help. I am currently doing Rover full-time. For many years i have lived in homes with pets and helped care for them. Currently living in a home with 1 cat, 1 dog, and 12 chickens. We also do doggy day care and do boarding- so we keep pretty busy. I always walk dogs on their leashes. I make sure to keep medications and other harmful things locked away. We have a fenced in yard, but i’m always out there with them. I try to take as good care for your animals as if they were my own.
