We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”

Amy & Rob were attentive, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay - and provided photos of our dog's meds being administered which we appreciated so much. Our dog came back happy and well-cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Wendy was absolutely amazing! I had a sitter lined up who stopped responding the day before my trip. I messaged Wendy and she was available to come with less than a 24hr notice. She went above and beyond for all of my animals. Bringing fresh greens for my lizard, getting more wet food for my cats, and sweeping. I would absolutely recommend her. And will 100% be using Wendy next time I go out of town.”
“We went on vacation and Vanessa did drop in visits while we were gone, and she was fantastic. She was great with communication, sent us updates and pictures daily, and our cat Winnie absolutely loved her. Definitely recommend her if you need anyone to stop by while you are away!”

About: I grew up around cats, and the second I got ny own job I got a kitty of my own. I now have two cats, a boy named Severus and a girl kitty named Luna. They’re truly the best. I have years of experience taking care of cats. From feeding meals to cleaning the litter box. I’d love to take care of your kitty while you’re gone ❤️I also have experience giving kitties medicine.
About: I’m a veterinary technologist who has been working in human medicine for the past decade. I miss caring for and interacting with all my four legged friends. I grew up with all sorts of pets( horses, dogs, cats, fish, chickens, parakeets, reptiles) and have always been an “animal” person. I am comfortable giving medications and I am very detail oriented. I have been described as responsible, reliable, and respectful. I know hard it can be to leave your furry family member with someone new. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and health would be my top priority. I would love to meet your dog or cat(or horse,or chickens,or livestock, or reptiles!) and love them like my own(who aren’t spoiled at all ;) ) I currently work part time, so I would have plenty of time to make sure your pet is properly cared for daily. I do not work on the weekends and would be happy to walk or play with your dog/cat all weekend. I am quick to respond to any potential issues that may arise in the moment. I am keen on reading pets behaviors and body language and can act appropriately. I am very responsible and respectful not only of your pets, but of your space as well.
“Emily was awesome! I was super nervous because I had never had someone watch my dog before but she took great care of my high energy dog while I was gone. Will definitely schedule again sometime!”
“Tori was caring and good to my dogs while I was across the country. She would send cute photos of my fur babies having fun. I am already booking her again for my August 2nd travels!”
About: I was born and raised in a household with many kitties. I learned how to read their body language and interact appropriately which included learning to give them space as needed. I have fostered many kitties for a kitty rescue group over the years. Through this I gained experience with kittens, senior kitties, kitties that require medication, special needs kitties, and more. I feel confident that I can provide top quality care for your feline companions while you are away. I look forward to meeting you!
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!

I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’m here to give your pet the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you're away. As a part-time nursing student and mom of two, I’ve learned how to balance a busy schedule with care and attention to detail. qualities that I also bring to pet care.

My goal is to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.
About: I have been pet sitting and volunteering since I was 10. I have worked with shy dogs, reactive dogs, overly friendly dogs, puppies, anything you can think of.

“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!”
“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.”
“Arielle was a great find and took good care of my doggo as we explored the national parks nearby. Her location is ideal if you’re coming from the south end and she was great in communication and accommodating our schedule. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs a dog sitter as they explore kings canyon/sequoia!”
“Romeo had an awesome week. Great communication. Looking forward to next week already. Traveling for work can be stressful but knowing someone is lovingly taking care of my baby is so great.”
“Shelby did a great job with my sweet old dog. He felt so comfortable, and I could tell that he was excited to see her by the way he was prancing at the front door when we arrived. There was even a special gift in his travel bag when we got home and a thank you card! I will definitely use her services again, he loves her.”
“Claire was patient and kind with our younger rescue dog, Quince, who can get stressed in new environments. Our senior dog, Duncan, seemed to do great. We appreciated the pictures of their day and were happy they were comfortable enough to settle in for a snooze. Their home seemed warm and inviting with plenty of comfy spaces to cuddle up. Claire had some good insight for future visits, and we hope to be able to have our boys in her care in the near 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!”
“Her and her hubby are so sweet. My pup seemed happy. Their home was nice and clean. Everytime I'm in their neck of the woods, I'll be sure to look up their availability. My only wish is she is closer to me so I can drop off my pup more often! Lol.”
“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!

If we are ever back in the area again and need babysitting we will definitely bring our puppy back. Thanks Whitney!”
“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!”
About: Hi, I am an animal lover and former rescue volunteer & pet sitting professional. Being a long time animal owner (cats, dogs, turtles, hamsters & fish), I understand the importance of having a responsible and dedicated sitter available. In the past I have rescued and boarded different dogs and cats with different needs keeping them on holistic diets and regular baths when needed, I thrive in giving them a loving environment at home (with tons of cuddles). I also have a personal belief on the importance of outdoor activity. I have a lot of experience with medium and larger breeds (Pomeranian, Beagles, Chow Chow, Rottweiler, Sheperds, Labs, & Mixes, etc), and also with senior dogs. I am a doggie parent. I also will send you periodic pictures of your fur baby during their time with me. I do walk in visits for pet parents. I try to work with a flexible schedule, but it depends on the needs of the pet. Some pets preffer 2 visits per day to make sure house is clean and pets are fed. But mostly will preffer the ability to drop in the evenings and early mornings. When I go to clients homes, I first have a meet and greet to determine best fit. I also like to fill out a log for all the dog needs. Some people like to give me a list and I am very happy when they do! I adapt to the need of the pet. For example some cats are shy and take longer to interact. I talk to them and keep them company. Make sure to take out any pet who enjoys a good 20-30 minute walk.
“I can't recommend Jessica enough! My pup came home tired - which is AMAZING! Jessica was quick to respond (which was very helpful because I was in a time crunch!) and took him for two walks.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, cleaning, medication routines, and lots of cuddles. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and want every animal in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their person is away. 🐾💕 I’m completely free and flexible until September 23rd! Once classes begin, I’ll still have plenty of availability for pet care, walks, and drop-in visits. My class schedule is pretty spread out, so I’m able to work around your pet’s needs and can often provide care before or after class. 🐾💕 Monday: Classes 1:00–2:50 PM Tuesday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Wednesday: Classes 2:00–2:50 PM & 5:00–7:50 PM for midterms (will let you know well in advance) Thursday: Class 3:00–3:50 PM Friday: Class 2:00–2:50 PM Outside of these class times, I’m generally available and happy to work with your schedule! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I keep a close eye on pets during care, make sure doors and gates stay secure, and keep potentially harmful items out of reach. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and safe while you’re away! 🐾💕

About: • Veterinary student • Fear Free • *pending BLS/ALS RECOVER CPR certification coming 05/16* • • Transparent, reliable, and attentive care backed by extensive clinical experience • I’m Jennifer, a 2nd yr veterinary student at Oregon State University with an interest in small animal medicine and feline-centered care. I have 10+ years of hands-on experience working with (primarily) dogs and cats in both shelter and clinical environments. I began volunteering at the Arizona Humane Society, where I provided daily care and enrichment for incoming and resident animals. I later worked as a veterinary assistant in a small animal general practice clinic for 4–5 years, gaining extensive experience with patient handling, client communication, and medical care in a fast-paced setting, while completing a bachelors in pre-veterinary medicine and a wildlife management certificate. To supplement my extensive academic training, I have pursued Fear Free Certification and Cat Friendly Veterinary Practitioner certification to better understand how to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in animals in the shelter and clinic environment. I carry those principles into every visit, prioritizing calm, low-stress care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and personality. In addition, I am fully bonded and insured, and I maintain independent professional coverage beyond Rover platform protections. Currently, I am progressing on completing the BLS/ALS CPR certification through the RECOVER Initiative (the evidence-based standard used in veterinary medicine) and I will officially have that achievement met on May 16th! Additionally, I am continuing to expand my Fear Free certification in the coming weeks to include a higher tier of canine/feline care and a broader range of species in general. I am comfortable administering medications through a variety of routes and have experience caring for multiple species, including dogs, cats, and backyard poultry such as chickens and turkeys. While the majority of my experience is within the small animal realm, I have additional experience with a variety of species. Providing these services are an extension of my training and long-term career in veterinary medicine. I strive to provide thoughtful, consistent care so you can feel confident that your pet is in capable hands. One of my goals is to maintain your pet’s routine, while also monitoring for subtle changes in behavior or health while you’re away. I am currently transitioning into a full-time veterinary assistant role in a clinic in Eugene, OR, but I will do my best to accommodate any services in my time outside of the clinic. Thank you for sticking around to learn about me. I’d love to meet your fur kids! I am currently a 2nd year veterinary student that has needed to take a medical deferral for a year. I plan to return to OSU CCVM to finish my doctorate degree, during the Winter 2027 term. During the month of May '26, I expect to be transitioning into a veterinary clinic job in Eugene, OR. I will do my best to accommodate all requests in the meantime and I will be transparent about any scheduling conflicts. I am hoping to spend the next year focusing on my health, continuing my veterinary learning at a pace that suits my current needs, spending time with my cats and my partner, and exploring OR. I will reliably provide updates on the status of your pets and provide immediate reports if I notice anything abnormal or medically concerning during our visit. I am always available to be contacted if there are any concerns during the services or leading up to the services. In my time off from veterinary school, I plan to pursue BLS/ALS RECOVER CPR certification in Portland, OR in mid May. Fingers crossed that I am able to find a class with space but I will update my profile once I have official certification shortly! How cool to have a legit medical professional as a pet/house sitter while you're away! 😎 On top of being an approved Rover sitter/covered by the Rover guarantee, I have additional insurance coverage and am bonded through an external company to simply give myself and your family peace of mind while you're away!

About: I understand what it’s like to need a last minute resort for animal care, so I’d love to help without needing much notice in advance! I have pet sit & owned my own animals since middle school. I currently have a 1 year old dog named Wesley & he is very hyper so I also understand all levels of pets. I have worked with vet techs at customer service jobs, and have house sat for people with dogs/cats needing extra care medical, physical, or environmental wise. I’m currently a part time worker, who has a lot of free time for the next couple months. I love exercising so taking animals on walks would be so fun for me. I am an early riser & a night owl so i’m open to all times of needed help. I understand the ideas that everyone knows their own pets the best, so anything you need specifically done I would love to help you. I’ve house sat for people for years, and have always loved meeting new pets! I’m not scared of animals in any way, and understand the wide range of personalities, triggers, and behaviors!
About: All my life I’ve been obsessed with dogs 🐶 When I was finishing up nursing school, I needed to find some part time work to help make ends meet. I found a job as a kennel technician at a commercial dog boarding facility - where I mostly cleaned up to 36 dogs daily messes and gave them social enrichment. I quickly jumped up the short ladder of management and took over as CEO right around my first year mark of employment. I have cared for hundreds, possibly a thousand plus dogs in the last half of my entire lifetime. I’ve worked hard to help dogs and owners alike understand eachother better - communication often needs no words. I specialize in “project pups”, socialization and reactivity. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies to teenage obedience school dropouts - through the medically fragile & elderly pooches on palliative care & absolutely everything in between. I’ve worked in a rescue as an adoption coordinator and had the extreme pleasure of helping people and pooches find their forever spaces together. Along with rescuing over a dozen dogs of my own over the years & nursing several back to health from horrific conditions. Dogs are my passion - simple as that. Nothing makes me happier than helping a dog & owner relationship thrive. I am a stay at home mom, my boys are 2 & 3 years old. They’ve been raised around dogs & already have learned a healthy respect for their space. I am hyper vigilant & always err on the extreme side of caution for everyone’s safety - especially when it comes to those tricky resources. Other than weekly appointments on Mondays - we have a very flexible and open schedule. Our yard is fully fenced with 6 foot - reinforced wood fencing. Gates are double locked to keep toddlers from opening them - dogs too. I have a 10 year old spayed female border collie that I picked from her litter at 3 weeks old. She’s my right hand gal and socially bulletproof when it comes to hanging out with her furry friends. I often used her as the “Ice Breaker” dog when I ran the boarding facility - meaning she did all the temperament testing for any newly boarded dogs we were socially unsure about. We have multiple baby gates, and crate option for separation of space. A dog door built into our back door leading into our fully fenced, toddlerized but maintained, grassy residential yard on a quarter acre. We live in a very quiet tiny town on an even quieter little street, perfect for safely regulated walks and training opportunities.

Whether I’m caring for pets in my space or at a client’s home, I follow their usual routines closely; including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. My goal is to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.
About: I grew up with a black Labrador for 10 years and helped out with feeding him, playing with him, and walking him. Over the past year, I have boarded a cute pug on several occasions. This experience inspired me to join Rover. I absolutely love dogs and am passionate about caring for them and looking after them in the best possible way! I’m currently an elite runner who trains 2-3 hours daily, with a flexible schedule. I am excited to look after dogs and show them a good time! I have a spacious, unfenced yard in the countryside. I do not have a dog of my own or any pets. I am reliable regarding following instructions pertaining to the dog’s needs.
About: I've been around pets my whole life and love animals and I am quite good with them. I've pet sit and walked many times before. I am extremely responsible and currently work another job. I've taken care of farm animals and domesticated and enjoy helping others. I do have a part time job I can work anytime past 230 on weekdays and full time starting as early as ever on weekends. In my home I am in charge of feeding and cleaning after all my pets and making sure they are getting played with enough. I am a gentle person and make sure the pets I'm looking after feel as safe and comfortable as possible with a new person in the house.
About: I have taken care of dogs of various sizes and breads since I was five years old. My neighbors and friends trust me to take impeccable care for their pets. I am currently in college and I work part-time three days a week. Although, I have quite a bit of free time and in that time I usually like to workout or try new things. Occasionally my family and I go to bend on the weekends. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a property that Is not heavily populated by cars on the road. I also have three varying sized crates as well as two dogs. My dogs are let out every 1-2 hours. One of my dogs is crated when I am not home and my other dog does not have to be crated. In my clients home, I will care for their pets like my client would normally and I will ensure that their home is left clean.
About: I have worked at a boarding facility for three years. I currently work at an animal emergency facility and have been here for 2 years. I love animals and caring for them is my calling. I am well trained in dealing with emergency, animal nutrition, can trim nails and do basic grooming of pets as well! I am very flexible and am able to juggling my responsibility as needed. I do work as a veterinary assistant but I have a set schedule that allows me to be work another job. I have a create if needed. I have cat and dog proofed my home. I have a quiet room for birds and rodents if need be that away from the fur babies. I leash walk dogs only. I am willing to leash walk cats but only by request. I live by the Jackson Frazier Wet lands so walking dogs there is always a nice walk for them and me.
About: I've taken care of pets basically my whole life, especially cats, and I've also had a dog for a couple years. I'm always the first person my friends and family call when they need help with their pets. I stay well read on what's good for animals, from training to helping with anxiety, and I'm always willing to go the extra mile to make sure a pet is happy. They're living creatures who deserve just as much happiness as we do. In terms of training, I've helped a cat retrain to use the litter box after it regressed due to anxiety, working through the root cause rather than just the behavior itself. I've also reduced aggression in animals through consistent training. I'm willing to stick with things for a long time and stay consistent, especially when it's for the betterment of the animal. My life is quite flexible, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I prefer jobs where I'm able to stay in charge of how the work gets done, since that's when I feel like I can give my best contribution. That flexibility means I can adjust to a pet's needs rather than squeezing them into a rigid schedule. When I'm caring for a pet in their own environment, I make sure to respect their space and routine completely, from where they're allowed to go to how they're used to being handled. I pay close attention to safety details like doors, gates, and anything that could be harmful to them, and I adapt to whatever setup the home already has in place.
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 provide reliable, in-home pet care focused on consistency, safety, and following each pet’s established routine. I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments, including rescues, seniors, and high-maintenance pets. I’m attentive to body language, stress signals, and environmental safety, and I adjust my approach based on the individual animal rather than using a one-size-fits-all style. I’m comfortable administering medications, adhering to strict care instructions, and maintaining routines so pets feel secure while their owners are away. Pet care is a central part of my weekly routine. I structure my schedule intentionally to allow for dependable drop-ins, walks, and in-home visits, with flexibility to accommodate regular check-ins, travel schedules, and repeat clients. I provide care exclusively in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and communicate clearly with owners to ensure trust and consistency.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends, family, and clients for the last decade. I have experiencing administering medication as my family dog was diabetic, as well as medications for client’s pets as well. As a college student entering summer time, I have a lot of open availability to hang with your best furry friends! Pet care is an easy fit as I have a hybrid job with extremely flexible hours. I am free throughout the week as well as most weekends! I really do love hanging out with animals, so they receive my full attention!! Safety is a huge priority to having fun and spending time with them, so I remain extremely attentive to make sure they get the best safe care they can!

About: Hi there! I am a fear free certified Dog Trainer with a passion for animals of all sizes. Growing up, I had the opportunity to live with and care for a variety of animals including livestock, dogs, cats, pocket pets, aquatic animals, and more. In my free time, I cared for dogs and cats residing at the local animal shelters, providing them with loving attention and exercise. I have also fostered dogs and cats of all ages in my home providing them with a safe, loving, and enrichment-filled environment until they find their forever home. Throughout my stay, you can expect to receive daily updates covering their activities and overall well-being. This can include written updates, photos, or short clips of their daily activities. I am skilled at administering medications as needed and can provide specialized care for your pets. I follow your daily routine strictly and provide mental stimulation for both cats and dogs to ensure the smoothest transition until you return. I look forward to meeting you and thank you for your time! I am currently providing pet care and training fulltime so I will be able to provide your pet with my full attention throughout their stay. They will be cared for as if they were my own. I will follow the routine your pet is used to and be sure to provide extra love and attention to help them settle in comfortably.

I can help train a bit with basics if need be, am very patient and caring. I am able to take on walks, to the park or just hang out if needed. I can also give baths if they need one. I understand all dogs are unique and have different needs and am willing to help. I currently work part time, Monday through Thursday. So I will have plenty of time to check in on, take on walks/ to parks and just play with your animals. I can also bring my dogs along for other dogs if you would like so they have someone to play with or just learn to be around other dogs!

“Allison was amazing with our pup! Pepper loved her right away and I could tell from the meet and greet that this was a great fit. Allison was communicative, engaged and helpful with every step of setting up our dog’s boarding. She sent pictures and updates during our trip so we knew our girl was happy and cozy. We are excited to have found someone we feel so comfortable leaving our girl with and will definitely be connecting with her again in the future!”
“Catrina was so sweet with our dog Mac. She sent us pictures every day to ensure he was being well taken care of. We will reach out to her the next time we need to leave town without our fury friend. Thank you Catrina!”
“I am really glad I found Derek and Sabrina. We tried another sitter who fell through last minute. Thankfully these two were able to get us in for a meet and greet quickly and go over a few things. (Or dog has a medical condition) I was impressed immediately with how everything felt professional as far as making sure dogs are up to date with vaccines and can socialize together nicely. I always ask for a meet and greet before making decisions just as a rule in life so when that was a requirement on their end too I felt comfortable moving forward. My dog came back healthy and expecting extra outside time to run and play. He even pouted when we left when he’s very much a shadow pup typically. My favorite thing from Derek and Sabrina was the updates, check ins and pictures daily. They really were great and we will be using them going forward for doggy daycare and vacations”
