“I would highly recommend Steve for caring for your pets. Our family went on a last minute trip and lucked out with finding Steve to watch our dog Arlo. We set up a meet and greet beforehand and he and his wife were so kind and hospitable. Arlo immediately felt at home. I received many photos and updates while we were away, and he was spoiled and loved on every moment with them! He didn’t want to leave when it was time to say goodbye. The best part is that we made some wonderful new friends and knew that Arlo was in good hands!”
“My Cody stayed again with Suzanne, and this time boarding for 9 nights straight and I couldn’t be happier. My Cody is shy and very reserved, but he had an absolute blast! I got so many picture updates and messages, and I had total peace of mind that Cody is in great caring hands. Suzanne did so much more than I expected and truly cared for him above and beyond like Cody was one of her own pack. Thank you Suzanne, I’m sure Cody misses you and your crew already, and he will be back!”
“Katie boarded my 15-month cockapoo, Darcy, for a week. This was our first time with her. She offered to meet us beforehand to get to know us / him. She was professional and caring & we liked her! She was timely with communication before & during Darcy's stay, sending a couple photos a day to show how much fun he was having. When she dropped him off, Darcy was VERY sad to see her drive away! Katie gets my most definite recommendation!”

“When Clyde didn’t bark not once when we first met Angelique, I knew he was going to be in good hands. He usually barks at all strangers at first! She went above and beyond with Clyde!

About: HI there! I have been an animal lover and dog owner my whole life. I grew up on a farm in rural Oregon with 4 furry four- legged family members! I had a wonderful Rottweiler for 9 years and we enjoyed beautiful hikes, brisk nightly walks and serene moments at the coast. Now that he has passed, I have been the go-to for many of my friends and family when they are in need of hands-on care for their pets. I have been house/pet sitting for 6 years now and have decided to offer my services on Rover.com! I am experienced with all sizes of dogs and have a firm but gentle tone. I like to keep a tight schedule with feeding and potty time and walks are always at the top of the list!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd, who has taught me so much about patience, training, and providing loving care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or simply relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. I believe pets thrive with consistency, patience, and plenty of affection. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they get the exercise, attention, potty breaks, fresh water, meals, and love they deserve while you’re away. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the same care and love I’d want for my own!💜 I do have my own dog, Samson, who is a very friendly and gentle dog. He is not aggressive and is used to being around other animals. For any overnight stays or daycare, I make sure all pets have a safe, comfortable environment and that introductions are done slowly and appropriately. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, comfort level, and safety while they are in my care. I do have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure while their owners are away. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, and any special preferences their pet may have. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. My own dog, Samson, is friendly, gentle, and not aggressive, and I make sure all introductions are done slowly and safely so every pet feels comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine as much as possible. My goal is to provide dependable care, patience, and lots of love so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: My wife, Connie, a retired nurse, and I have had six dogs over 35 years. We miss them dearly. I have raised dogs from puppyhood through their senior years so I understand the patience, structure and affection that go with it. I am retired from my legal practice of 35 years, and very active. I love long walks and have a nice fenced backyard if pet sitting is needed. Only your dog(s) will be in our care during your booking. Whether your pup needs long walks, gentle companionship or just someone who treats them like family I’m committed to make them feel safe, loved and genuinely cared for. After being self-employed for 35 years I am looking for something to keep me busy and I can’t think of a better way to spend my time and I have a very flexible schedule. In my home I will provide a warm, clean environment, plenty of attention and lots of outdoor activity since I’m active and retired, with plenty of time to give. And again, your pup will also be the only one I care for during his/her stay…
“Rebecca is the Best. She was a perfect match for my Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I will be booking with her again and hope she is available. She’s knowledgeable and attentive. Thank you Rebecca.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”

I take care of dogs for my friends who have recommended me to other clients over the course of the last fifteen years. I am a total dog lover and love to stop and pet each and every one I come across. I take daily walks, weather permitting, with the dogs I am taking care of, including the English Mastiff! Because I do not have a full time job, I am available weekdays and weekends and am very flexible regarding times. I love and treat each dog as my own. I moved from Mesquite to Woodburn, OR 2 years ago and am starting to get back into dog sitting again. So please reach out if you need to board your dog at my house.

“Alex is very accommodating and he was able to work around our schedule. I appreciate how quickly he replied and made us feel comfortable leaving Kona with him. She had a great time playing with the other dogs he had there! He even sent pics and updates during her visit! We will definitely use him again when we go to Oregon.”
“Lauren was great! She was flexible & accommodating, loved on our Tucker dog, who can have high separation anxiety, and communicated with us through the day to let us know how he was doing and to verify any concerns. It was a blessing to have her watch him for the day, allowing him to join us on this trip but to know he was in good hands while we completed activities he could not join us for. We would definitely use Lauren again!”

“I left my dog with Brianna while I was sightseeing and everything went well! I really appreciated Brianna’s conscientiousness when it came to an intro and learning everything about my dog; she has a lot of knowledge but is also eager to learn specifics that will make your dog feel comfortable.

“Andrea was my hero for agreeing to watch my fur baby on short notice. Andrea and her family (including their very friendly Weimaraner) were welcoming and excited when we arrived. My dog never looked back! In fact, when i arrived, he seemed like he wanted to stay longer lol! The dogs played well together and the whole family loved on him. I highly recommend Andrea and her family and will love for my guy to go back when I next need doggie daycare!”
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life (Fritz and Sam, Buffy the vampire slayer and most recently Bella). We have enjoyed dog sitting since our last pup Bella passed in March 2022. I have recently changed my hours to part time at work, allowing more time to reactivate my rover account to meet new pups. I currently work part time, mostly from home. I often have pups sitting at my feet while working. Exercise or walks can be expected for lunch time breaks! While home, you can expect walks, play time and many cuddles from my family. My kids are not left unsupervised with a dog(s) from rover. We have fully fenced yard with a grassy area. We are located in a great neighborhood and surrounding area and have many great walking spots.
About: I have 10 years of specific dog care experience—from the puppy stage through the senior years. I understand that different ages and breeds need differing levels of energy and respond in kind. I know how important it is for your pup to feel safe and calm but also know how to let them let loose and have fun/playtime! I adore dogs and can’t wait to help care for your fur baby for you. I’m a stay at home mom, so my schedule is fairly open. I can work in walks, visits, and feedings for your pup(s) as it works for you. I also have a fenced in back yard, and can offer day boarding as needed, so your fur baby will have access to space to run and play while staying safe. Happy to also offer short term boarding or in (your) home care for times when you are out of town. Based on your needs, I can keep your pet here at my home where I have a fenced in yard, and can also crate your pet, if that is something they are used to. On walks, I will always keep your pet leashed and will offer a calm and gentle environment at all times while they are in my home. If your needs require me to be in your home, I will follow any and all guidelines pertaining to your space.
About: I've grown up around Labradors my whole life. Right now I have a yellow lab named Jasmine. She's a very high energy 10 year old dog. She's not the type of lab who likes to play fetch or even go into water. Which I feel is quite odd. The funny thing about Jasmine, she sounds like a monkey at times when she wants to come in the house. A little about me- I love being out in nature. My favorite place to walk is the beautiful Sherwood parks. I feel dog walking could be a lot of fun on my off season of my main job which is school photography. I've worked as a school photographer for 22 years. So I have a lot of patience with kids and feel I could take on any kind of dog. Right now I'm looking to fill my time walking dogs so I can get more exercise and love on many different types of dogs. I'm looking to make some extra money and take some great walks around town. I'm very dependable and will show up when I say I will. I will always make sure your amazing dog is cared for to the fullest and know they will be in safe hands while I have them.

“Maleny has been walking my akita Larry for almost a year and he loves her. I can always depend on her to be on time, or to contact me if she's running behind. She takes wonderful pictures of Larry while they're walking, she keeps him safe from strays, and makes sure he walks on the grass as much as possible when the pavement is too hot. She is always open and easy to communicate with and I'm looking forward to her walking Larry in the future.”

“Kaylie did a wonderful job taking my Piper for her daily walk - with the hot weather she adjusted the schedule so it would be more comfortable for her and Piper ... sent me great photos of them and updates on how the walk went. I felt very comfortable with her in charge of my "girl". Thank you for taking such great care with her!”
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.
“Elaine was a great help walking Homer while I was recovering from a back injury. She was prompt in responding to requests, bonded with Homer quickly, and provided detailed information about the walks, along with pictures. I will definitely use her in the future.”
About: I know how much pets are an important part of the family. I also know what piece of mind it provides when someone is caring for your pets in the way that you would, in moments when you can’t.

I will also tend to other needs in your home, if need be, to allow reassurance that everything is taken care of while you are away. I go above and beyond what is asked. My schedule is flexible and I am reliable and trustworthy. I am experienced with my own two senior dogs and so I understand the unique needs and care that older dogs need and how important their care is in your absence. Let me take care of your pet babies and allow you to enjoy a trip or not worry when you are away at work.
About: I am an energetic person and get along well with hyper dogs. I love puppies! I am good with play time as well as hard pullers on walks. I have gaps in between work and love to spend my days off with animals maybe 2-3 days a week. I love walking dogs and the opportunity for a dogsit is often a nice surprise! I respect the owner's home and belongings when sitting and doing drop ins. I use the backyard and locate the collar, leash, treats, and food.
“Katie was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, kind, and attentive to Misha. Before the walk, she even agreed to meet Misha beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. And the pictures of them on a walk together in the sunshine was the cherry on top. Katie, you rock!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd, who has taught me so much about patience, training, and providing loving care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or simply relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. I believe pets thrive with consistency, patience, and plenty of affection. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they get the exercise, attention, potty breaks, fresh water, meals, and love they deserve while you’re away. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the same care and love I’d want for my own!💜 I do have my own dog, Samson, who is a very friendly and gentle dog. He is not aggressive and is used to being around other animals. For any overnight stays or daycare, I make sure all pets have a safe, comfortable environment and that introductions are done slowly and appropriately. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, comfort level, and safety while they are in my care. I do have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure while their owners are away. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, and any special preferences their pet may have. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. My own dog, Samson, is friendly, gentle, and not aggressive, and I make sure all introductions are done slowly and safely so every pet feels comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine as much as possible. My goal is to provide dependable care, patience, and lots of love so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

“I would highly recommend booking with Chloe, she made my Lab feel right at home and took great care of him. He got daily snuggles and lots of outside time and had the best time! He came back really happy and I was happy to get daily pictures of him and updates while I was out of town.”
“I would highly recommend Steve for caring for your pets. Our family went on a last minute trip and lucked out with finding Steve to watch our dog Arlo. We set up a meet and greet beforehand and he and his wife were so kind and hospitable. Arlo immediately felt at home. I received many photos and updates while we were away, and he was spoiled and loved on every moment with them! He didn’t want to leave when it was time to say goodbye. The best part is that we made some wonderful new friends and knew that Arlo was in good hands!”
“Katie boarded my 15-month cockapoo, Darcy, for a week. This was our first time with her. She offered to meet us beforehand to get to know us / him. She was professional and caring & we liked her! She was timely with communication before & during Darcy's stay, sending a couple photos a day to show how much fun he was having. When she dropped him off, Darcy was VERY sad to see her drive away! Katie gets my most definite recommendation!”
“Tara was so great with our dogs and really helped us enjoy our trip to Dayton without having to worry about the dogs. They had a great puppy party and came back tired and fully content with their stay! Definitely will be reaching out again for our next trips to Dayton!”
“Scout, our 9-year-old Labrador, stayed with Siru for an extended period. Siru was eager to let Scout enjoy her favorite activities, which made her very happy. Knowing our beloved pet was happy and well cared for allowed us to enjoy our trip without worry. The best part was the updates and photos that Siru sent us.”
“Kim was wonderful and willing to watch our pups even though she had a busy weekend herself. I appreciate the transparency and being forward with the information. I believe our pups were well taken care of and loved.”
“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”
“Saawan and Kangna are the best! We’re so thankful we found them. They cared for Rosie with so much love. They were thoughtful and kind and very prompt with all communication.”
“Andrea made it so easy! She was prompt with communication and was very accommodating. My dog had some tummy issues which was communicated to me and resolved promptly. We booked a very long stay, and I was pleased to see my dog looked so good when I picked her up. I was happy with Andrea’s care!”
“Words simply aren’t enough to express the gratitude I have for how my 4 dogs were loved and immediately welcomed in by her family. To say my dogs wanted to stay with her isn’t an understatement. I consider myself blessed to have met such a wonderful and caring family to love on my pet people when I can’t. She deserves all the praise in the universe. Woof woof woof woof wag wag wag wag from the crew too. We love you!”
About: I have experience in giving pets medications weather its pills or injection. I have experience in elderly pets, I am very patient and very attentive, and I have great communication. I do pet care as my main job, so it fits in my day perfectly. Plus I can take the pet (s) with me when I have to leave the apartment for any length of time. I will always communicate with the owners before hand. I am VERY attentive to every pet/clients that I take care of. I always make sure to have some booties on hand. Depending on the weather, I always make sure the pet is in the shade, on the grass, or even some dirt. I make sure that I have extra pet rain gear as well
“Jean was very kind and helpful. I was nervous leaving my puppy for the first time (I spent a long time making a decision and even visited other homes), but I felt comfortable leaving him there and I think he had lots of one on one time and was not alone very much. She seemed to really enjoy her time with my puppy (who is a bit of a handful despite his size). She checked in with photos every day. They went for lots of walks and play time and he seemed very well cared for overall. She even dropped him off for me as I was getting in on a late flight. She is obviously a loving,fun person and enjoys dogs a lot. I would recommend her to other dog owners. Thanks Jean!!”
