“Christina and her pack are wonderful! A lovely family and friendly Dogs. You can see they are totally dedicated to their pets and visiting pets. Nigel was well cared for and I did not worry about him a bit. I highly recommend them and hope to use them again in the future.”
“Had to change sitters last minute right before a flight and Tracy was able to get me set up quickly and easily. Considering the time constraints she was very helpful! Many pictures and updates were appreciated. It seemed like my pup enjoyed his stay. Thanks again!”
“Joe is great with our doggos! Lets them sleep on his bed, takes them for walks, and he’s careful with giving them their medications on schedule. They had a very nice time with Joe, and we will book with him again.”
“Shelby went above and beyond caring for Shadow 🫶 Daily walks, lots of photo updates, and even a thoughtful card and treat at pickup - it meant so much! I could tell he was happy and well cared for the entire time, and will absolutely be booking her again in the future 😊”
“Our dog Prim had a great time visiting Jade's again! Jade offers just the right combination of spacious environment, doggie friends to play with, and relaxed and flexible bedtime arrangements. Prim is able to make herself right at home here. Jade is also always very responsive and attentive, and we appreciate the regular updates and photos throughout her stay - thanks again Jade!”
About: I have years of experience caring for small and medium sized dogs and am the owner of two friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle. Because I focus exclusively on dogs under 40 pounds, I am highly familiar with the unique temperaments and safety needs of small and medium breeds. Working from home full time allows me to provide constant, dedicated supervision throughout the day, easily keeping up with your dog's specific feeding and bathroom schedules while keeping their anxiety low. Your dog will also have access to a fully fenced backyard, offering a completely secure space to get fresh air, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised outdoor playtime with Minion and Gizmo without any risk of escaping. Whether your dog has high energy or is a calm companion who just wants to nap by my desk while I work, I provide a peaceful, attentive environment tailored to making them feel safe and right at home. Since I work from home full time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine. My workday is structured around the dogs, meaning guest pets are never left unattended and receive constant companionship. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to step away from my screen and supervise outdoor playtime in my fully fenced backyard. Your dog will join my own friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, for a consistent schedule of morning feeds, afternoon backyard romps, and plenty of desk side company while I work. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, bathroom, or exercise timelines without any disruption to my work week. Trust and safety are the foundation of how I operate, which is why I provide care exclusively in my own home where I can maintain total oversight. To guarantee a secure environment, I strictly enforce a 40 pound weight limit for all guests. This ensures everyone is evenly matched with my own friendly dogs, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, eliminating the safety risks and anxiety that come with mixing large and small breeds. Because I work from home full time, your dog will never be left unattended and will receive constant supervision. Outdoor time is restricted to a fully fenced backyard where I am always physically present to monitor play and bathroom breaks. I build trust with owners through transparent communication, regular photo updates, and precise adherence to your dog's established feeding and routine instructions, providing a predictable and protective environment where your pet can feel completely safe.
“They're AWESOME! Super friendly & very responsive. High energy dog got tons of exercise, I've never seen him more wiped out! Would definitely recommend Tawna & John, and I will 100% be using them for future boardings. Can't say enough how appreciative I am. Thank you!”
About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for nearly two decades. My attention to detail never goes unnoticed and I am confident in my abilities to comfort your pet(s) by making them feel special and safe! I have experience with all kinds of creatures — dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents/ferrets, fish, and waterfowl, at all stages of life. Yes, even your beloved seniors. I’m a parent/caregiver to a child with disabilities and while that does not affect my ability to care for animals, it can limit some of my time due to my child’s day-to-day needs, appointments, etc. I update my calendar accordingly to reflect my availability. With that said, most of our appointments are virtual or in-home and I am a stay at home mom so I still have plenty of time for pet care. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs and I am always nearby supervising. I allow pets on furniture and treat them just like my own when I’m watching pets in my home. Instructions regarding potty breaks, feeding, kennel time, medications, etc., are always followed if given.
“We had Gemma watch our small dog for the second time now and feel lucky to have found her. She is very kind, flexible and caring. Zoey can be anxious with strangers sometimes but that doesn’t seem to be the case with Gemma and her family.”
“Miriam has watched Chowder for over a year now and she has been amazing! Chowder and her have connected so well and it’s clear that he is completely comfortable and happy around her. She is very attentive and sensitive to his needs. Very happy to continue working with her 😊”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
“Diana took wonderful care of Reggie and was thoughtful enough to send regular photos and video to let me know how things were going. Reggie had a good time and I had peace of mind know he was well cared for!”
“Madison took great care of Zeus and sent us fun photo updates frequently. She was very accommodating, communicative and flexible and we look forward to having her watch Zeus again during our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
“Gayle is the absolute best! She sends lots of update, pictures and videos and is very flexible with owner’s needs. My dog is so excited to see Gayle and her dog Sitka, he just runs in her house, he doesn’t even look back to say bye to me 😢🤩😊.”
“I appreciate Larissa very much. I am very satisfied with Larissa’s services. Larissa is very communicative and shared updates about my pup, which I truly appreciated. I would definitely recommend.”

About: I love the way that cats are they're very unpredictable One minute they're all happy and praying the next minute they're jumping on top of your head, I like that about cats I love to play with them too they're so fun. I got my first cat when I was 6 years old her name was precious I'll never forget her it was the best day of my life I think all animals including cats are precious.
About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets. For over twenty years, friends, families, business associates and everybody's been happy and i'm even animal cpr trained I am currently not working. Uh, so I have lots of time to spend with your pets playing with them. I have six acres, and i'm always outside with the dog, so never outside alone. I have a partially fenced yard. I have 6 acres, and I have trails through the property. But I never let the dogs go out by themselves. I always walk them through my property at least four times a day.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and absolutely love them. I have a 2.5 year old aussiedoodle who is my baby. I’ve house sat and pet sat for many families spanning from new puppies to large boxers. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m a foster parent for Safehaven Humane Society where I’ve cared for animals from 2 week old puppies and new kittens to new Mom dogs saved from hoarding situations. I am good with more timid dogs and also dogs with lots of energy. I look forward to meeting you! I am working part time and taking online classes so I would love to get out and go for walks or have dogs come hang out with my and my puppy (Juno)! We have a nice size backyard that is all fenced in and another friendly dog to keep your dog company! Our dog was used in evaluations for new dogs at her daycare, and gets along with everyone!
About: I really love getting to know each cat’s personality. Some cats are playful and social, some are shy and independent, and I’m happy to go at their pace. I have my own cat, Mango, so I’m very used to daily cat care like feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, treats, and paying attention to little changes in behavior. I’m patient, gentle, and truly enjoy making cats feel safe and comfortable while their people are away.
“Malie was amazing with our siberian husky! She was great with communication and reached out with each drop in. Our husky has a lot of personality, and several medications. Malie made it simple, and took great care of her! Malie was great at respecting Koda's cues, playing when she wanted to play, but also giving Koda space when she wanted it. We will be booking again with Malie very soon.”
“Erin was so helpful and exactly what my cat, Jared needed for a pet sitter! Erin’s attention to my pet’s needs and love for animals really shows! 100% will book Erin again, and I recommend Erin to anyone needing a pet sitter!……unless it conflicts with my bookings, ha ha. 😺”
About: I've had cats throughout my childhood and adult life, and I've lived with cats more often than not. What I love about cats is how varying their personalities are, and they are so unique in that sense because you often times cannot tell what they're going to be like as an adult when they're a kitten. If I had it my way, I'd be sleeping with cats in my bed every night.
“Holy wow! I cannot say enough great things about Allyson! From the very first interaction she was communicative, friendly, and respectful. She took SUCH good care of my cats while I was away. It’s easy to see she really loves what she does. I would recommend Allyson for ANYtime you need some help with your pets!”
About: Hi! I have experience with all different types of animals. I have a 7 year old terrier mix that gets along with other dogs. I used to foster and took care of all types of dogs. I’m a nurse so I have experience with giving meds. When I go to work, my boyfriend is at home and your pet will not be alone. I work 3 days a week but my boyfriend works from home and is home all of the time. We can take your dog to the park and go on walks at least twice a day. We have a two bedroom house with plenty of space inside. We have a small outdoor space for your dog to sniff but we will go on daily walks with your dog.
About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!
“Holly was super helpful and communicative. She was even able to do an emergency visit when an automatic feeder malfunctioned. My cat was happy and healthy in all the pics and videos.”
About: I've had cats since I was an infant. I've never NOT had a cat in my life. My childhood and heart cat died unfortunately at age 14 in 2014. But we still had 2 other cats and then I wound up getting a new personal cat and that's my baby Rem.
“Alivia was great with our two golden retrievers! She did drop ins for us during the day while we were working. She brought our dogs toys and treats. Phoebe and Winston give this rover sitter a A++! We will definitely use Alivia in the future!”
“We cannot speak highly enough of Hunter! Our fur babies were very well taken care of as evidenced by how calm and happy they were upon on our return. Hunter is a caring, kind, and extremely professional sitter and we wouldn’t think twice about having him back again in the future. Thank you Hunter!!”

“Amazing experience!!! This was the first time we had ever used Rover or had a dog sitter, so I was a bit worried. Remo is a 4 month old puppy and very mischievous. Zuri sent texts, photos and videos, so I could see what a great time Remo was having at her home. I would definitely book again with Zuri and totally have piece of mind that Remo is in good hands.”
“I really appreciated how Tracy was able to provide daycare when I was out of town over the holidays when I needed to alter my plans last minute. My daughter needed some help caring for my puppy and Tracy was able to help us out. I was able to set everything up while I was stuck in the airport, which was great! I also got lots of picture updates and my daughter said that my puppy was excited to go to Tracy’s house everyday.”

“As a first time user of Rover and never having left our pets with anyone other than family, naturally, I was very apprehensive about leaving Henry and Zira with complete strangers. Philly immediately put my mind at ease with the first video conference - he was very reassuring and understanding. During their stay with Philly we received regular updates on how the two were doing including pictures. When we picked them up they looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. I will most definitely remember Philly and Rover the next time we need someone to watch these two again. Thank you so much.”
“We brought our dog to Whitney’s house for three days while we were in the area for work and she took great care of him! She was super flexible since we needed to pick him up at different times each day. And our dog was happy and well exercised when we got him in the evening. If we are ever back in the area again and need babysitting we will definitely bring our puppy back. Thanks Whitney!”
“We needed doggy day care for our two dogs and Joe was wonderful with communication from the start to the end. Send updates and videos. Happy we found someone local to watch our pups. Will be using him for boarding our dogs for few days soon! Thanks!”
“Nancy is such a sweet person and was so helpful while we were visiting the coast. She watched my baby boy for a day so we could go to the aquarium and other places we can’t bring our dog. I was really hesitant booking an out of state rover without meeting people first but nancy made me feel that my boy would be in safe hands. He’s a really shy pup but when i picked him up he showed affection to Nancy as we were leaving so i know that he was treated kindly and had a lot of fun! She sent photos of him playing in the pool and taking naps ? I would highly recommend booking Nancy for your next daycare need!”
About: Hi! I’m an educator who has always had a deep love and respect for nature and all living creatures. As a professional in education, patience, responsibility, structured care, and high attentiveness are built into everything I do. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have had a dog since I was 3 years old—she was my best friend and was by my side until she passed away at the age of 19. When I lived in Turkey, I had two dogs, and I brought both of my sweet girls with me when I moved to the USA. Sadly, they have both crossed the rainbow bridge and are now our little angels. ❤️ Today, our family includes two little dogs and one sweet cat. I have been caring for pets since elementary school and have always shared a special connection with them. Back in Turkey, I actively helped many people adopt dogs, including helping the school where I worked adopt a campus pet. I truly believe animals are family, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and deeply loved is second nature to me. Why Choose Us for Your Pet? Constant Care & Attention: My husband works from home, and I work from home most of the time as well. This means there is almost always someone around to give your pets endless love, companionship, and attention. Professional Responsibility & Safety: With my educational background, strict adherence to feeding/walk routines, safety protocols, and individualized care come naturally to me. A Loving Home Away from Home: A friend encouraged us to try Rover, and we jumped at the opportunity simply because my husband and I both love animals so much. We treat every guest like our own family in a calm, welcoming, and stress-free environment. Peace of Mind: You will receive prompt responses, clear communication, and frequent photo/video updates so you always know your furry family member is happy and thriving. We can’t wait to welcome your sweet pet into our home! 🐶🐱✨ My husband works from home, and I work outside the home for a maximum of three half-days a week. The rest of the time, I’m home. I understand that every dog is different, and I adjust my approach based on each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. For example, I recently cared for a large-breed puppy who wasn’t used to playing with small dogs. To make sure everyone was comfortable and safe, I divided my home into separate areas so he could have his own space while my dogs had theirs. I also moved my workspace next to his area so I could spend more time with him throughout the day. Since he had a lot of puppy energy, I took him on walks more frequently than I normally would to help him get his energy out and keep him happy and relaxed. My goal is always to understand each pet individually and create a routine where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Loki loved spending time with Riley. Riley was excellent to work with, very communicative about all aspects of care and scheduling. We will definitely book with Riley again in the future”
“Chelsea was great with my dog, she was very responsive and you can tell how much she loves dogs! My pup came home very tired and happy from running around with her boys all day. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi there and thank you for taking the time to view my profile! If you're looking for a place where your dog will be treated like a member of the family while you're away, you've come to the right spot. Since the day I was born, I have been surrounded by all sorts of breeds (herding, working, hounds, toys, sporting)…you name it. There isn't a breed or size I don't adore. This has taught me that every dog is uniquely special and I truly love them all. After I recently lost my sweet and wonderful 16.5 year old Blue Heeler, Sooky, I have so much love to share and I'd be thrilled to give it to your fur baby! Whether your dog enjoys running around in my fully fenced yard or snuggling up by the fire when it's cold, they'll get cozy and comfortable care while they are with me. I'm experienced with dogs at all life stages, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I can also handle things like giving medication or if you're working on commands/hand signals (I trained Sooky by hand signals only…no words) at home, I am more than happy to keep up that consistency while they're here! As a stay at home mom, I'm usually home all day so I can provide lots of company, attention, and affection! Treats are free with your permission! The only times I have to leave are for quick school runs for my kiddos, who are 3 and 6. My kids have been surrounded by dogs since they were born so they love dogs but they also understand some dogs need space and time to acclimate. With that said, if your pup is coming to visit, I kindly ask that they should be okay with kids and other dogs. Thanks for taking the time to read, please reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur love. I am 100% invested in creating a positive experience for both your pup and you. I look forward to having your pup steal my heart. P.S. Just something deeply personal to me. I take huge pride in my natural connection with dogs, I have heard countless times over the years "they never warm up to people that fast!” so know they will be in a loving environment. P.S.S. Please know I am happy to give you photo/video updates so you have complete peace of mind. As a stay at home mom, I have a lot of flexibility. This means I can really focus on what your dog needs each day and tailor it to them. If you have an energetic pup who needs frequent potty breaks and active fun, I’m here for it! If you have a wise senior who just wants a quiet spot to snooze with periodic belly rubs or back scratches, I’m here for that too. Besides taking my kids to and from school in the morning and afternoon, I'm usually home. This means your dog won't be left alone for long hours. Whether your dog likes morning fun, lazy afternoon naps or a cozy evening wind down, I'll make sure your pup has a wonderful time with me. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities for every guest pup. I want them to have a "home away from home". My home features a fully fenced, secure backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, and play under my constant supervision. Inside, they’re welcome to roam freely, play with toys or snuggle up where they please. To keep the environment safe and happy for all, I will make sure every pup is friendly with children and comfortable playing alongside other dogs. I will be sure to supervise all interactions and treat your dog with the same care I’d give my own. You’ll receive photo/video check-ins during the day so you can see just how safe, happy, and settled your fur baby is!
“Penny had a great day with Christina! During the day, Christina sent me photos of Penny and updates on how she was settling in and getting on with her family furry friends. Christina is super friendly and a great communicator. I felt totally at ease leaving Penny with her.”

About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs and I’ve been around all kinds of breeds. I truly love dogs and love taking care of them.

I want people to know that their pets are safe with me and they will always come first. If your pets have special needs, I will make sure they are taken care of. I want your dogs to feel like they are on vacation as well. Walks to the park, and lots of play time are the types of activities I focus on. Your dog will be in good hands and very comfortable with me.

I am here to work around the Clients schedule, not my own. Each service is personalized and catered to your pets needs, wants and boundaries. Pets will be returned to the care of their owner & given a summary of services provided, behavior while being serviced & any other necessary information regarding your pets experience. It is important to me to keep owners as involved & updated as possible.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8 but began house sitting when I turned 16. I have experienced taking care of dogs, cats , horses and even chickens. while looking after your fur babies they will be given excellent care as if they were my own. A love to photograph animals so with my care come a free mini photoshoot. With your permission of course! My 1 year old black lab absolutely loves to play with others. So if your pup needs a buddy to burn off some energy she’s your pup . I work 6:30am to 2:30pm but I’m free the rest of the time to do pop in or walks. If I’m staying at your house I bring in my own food and drink. And stay with your fur baby the whole time. If I’m in home sitting I do a minimum of 3 30 min walks a day. 1 before work ,after work and before bed. And depending on your fur babies energy I’ll add in extra play time if needed. I’m stuck to strictly feeding schedules so whatever time you have them eat I’ll make sure to do they same. To help keep them in their normal routine. If I’m doing a drop in I can go walks /runs for about an hour unless you need me to take them for more time.
About: For over 3 years now I have had the wonderful opportunity to be a full time sitter for all sorts of wonderful animals with beautiful personalities. I have met dozens of dogs, sat bunnies, cats, birds, and reptiles. Before that I spent my entire life loving and caring for animals😊 My schedule is extremely flexible, so my availability really depends on the needs of the animals. Any time of day I am happy to hang out with some awesome pets!😊 I am happy to hang out with your animals in whatever environment they prefer. For example, if a dog loves to be outside, you bet I will be out there all day with it😊 I always do my best to follow rules and instructions given to me by the client; The pets happiness and safety are my #1 priority. My time is completely oriented around the needs of the pet I am sitting. So if they are up and about all night then I can be up and about all night. If they are lazy, I can be too. All that matters is that their needs are being met above all else😊 Safety is my number one priority when it comes to pet sitting. Beyond that I also prioritize the special instructions, needs, and concerns of my clients. For example, if your fur baby needs medication and to be supervised while they go outside, I will make it my mission to do so to the client's specifications.😊
About: Hi! I have experience with all different types of animals. I have a 7 year old terrier mix that gets along with other dogs. I used to foster and took care of all types of dogs. I’m a nurse so I have experience with giving meds. When I go to work, my boyfriend is at home and your pet will not be alone. I work 3 days a week but my boyfriend works from home and is home all of the time. We can take your dog to the park and go on walks at least twice a day. We have a two bedroom house with plenty of space inside. We have a small outdoor space for your dog to sniff but we will go on daily walks with your dog.

About: I bond easily with cats and dogs. I am gentle, patient and give 100% to all the fur babies in my care. I enjoy entertaining and caring for these special critters. While with me, I am observant and provide the kind of interaction the pet wants. This could be anything from a massage to hiking and play at a beach with a variety of toys. I always want your pet to feel warm and welcome. I believe walking is the best medicine, so I’m game to go out no matter the weather. I don’t feed people food to them but am happy to give appropriate treats and lots of praise. I have been taking care dogs for 15 years. Dogs are considered my family bond
About: I don’t live in Aurora, but I split my time between Portland and Salem. If you live in the Portland area or Salem area or anywhere in between, I am happy to help you with your pet sitting needs. I grew up with cats, dogs, and chickens. My earliest pet care was at the age of 10 taking care of my neighbors dogs and cats while they were gone. In my adult life, I've had one cat and 4 dogs. My current dog is a Standard Poodle named Percy. He's a huge love! I know your pets are your heart, too. I strive to give your pets my best love and care while you're gone, just like I would want someone to give Percy! I currently work from home, so I can pop in or stay over easily. I would hope that your pet is able to walk with Percy, because he would hate to be left out of the fun. Each pet is unique and will be respected. Grouchy kitty under the bed?? I’ll say hello extra sweet and then leave them be. Tigger-like active puppy? Let’s throw some balls in the yard! The pet that thinks my lap is theirs? Good snuggles and lots of sweet talk, for sure! Let’s chat and see what your pet needs.

My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
