“Bonnie was great! She was easy to get a hold of, had a great space for the pups, and sent plenty of photos throughout our dogs stay. I highly recommend Bonnie, and we’ll definitely be back!”
“Marybeth and family took good care of our dog Toby for a week. I believe Toby had as good a vacation as we did! He got to play with Zoey and keep an eye on the cats. He spent time relaxing on the back deck watching the chickens. Working out the details with Marybeth was easy and she's quick to respond. She's obviously good with animals.”
“Cathy took such great care of Teddy! She was so friendly and had a lovely space for him to play and sun bathe. If I need someone to watch him again I will absolutely reach out to her!”
“Angus had another fantastic staycation with Sabrina & Keelan! They and their pups welcome Angus into their pack and spoil him with walks, snuggles, and playtime. So happy we found them!”
“Our pup was nervous given she hasn’t stayed anywhere without us for a few years, but Laura sent us photos of her sleeping, and it was clear that Laura was very attentive and loving, so we knew she was safe and sound. Hoping a few more visits at Laura’s will help our little Chihuahua settle in a little easier.”

“Obi absolutely LOVED his time with Alicia! Alicia was fantastic - she was flexible with my unpredictable work schedule, took my pup out on a ton of walks/adventures, and sent photos and updates during my time away. I’ll definitely plan to board my boy with her again and Obi is already looking forward it!”
“Linda and Bobby were FANTASTIC! They kept me in the loop with what my pup was doing and feeling. This really felt like a home away from home for him. A part of me thinks he wished he could stay! We will absolutely be using them again in the future.”

“Victoria was very attentive and filled all of our requests. She talked with our kitties which I appreciate because it comforts them to hear human voices. All of their needs were met and all instructions were followed. I would absolutely ask Victoria to care for our little ones again.”
“Thank you Veronica! Arrived home from my journey and found everything in order and a kitty cat that was eager to see me, but was clearly taken care of in my absence. Will definitely seek to reenlist Veronica for future journeys”
“Just starting using Rover and Colby, my first time. Impressed by the prompt communication, updates, pictures if my dogs. Also, punctual. Thank you!”
“Sydney was great during an overnight stay with our cat! She was attentive and I could tell she was really looking out for his needs. When he became a bit antisocial and cried during the night, Sydney didn’t hesitate to reach out and see if there was anything else she could do to make him feel comfortable. Her energy definitely aligned with our cat’s and he got along with her great. Thanks Sydney!”
About: I have lots of experience with cats, from kittens to seniors! I’ve taken care of my neighbors, friends, and family’s cats for years before I even got my own cat. I got my own cat, Daisy, about five years ago and have been cleaning up her litter box ever since!
“Marianne was the perfect kitten sitter for our babies. Our first trip out of town was pretty nervewracking, but Marianne was incredibly thoughtful, communicative, and eager to play and entertain them. We were very grateful to have her watch over our boys, and will def use her services again!”
“Emily was AMAZING! Updates after each visit. Emily was in constant communication and responded promptly. Our cat, Mo, absolutely loved her. Sybil likes people on her own terms and let Emily pet her which is huge. The cats were well cared for. We will definitely be using Emily again!”
“We love Katlyn!!! She takes such great care of our 19 year old elderly ragdoll, Sky ❤️ She is also very reliable and kind and Sky loves her! It’s comforting to know she’s in good care and loved well when we’re gone.”
About: I have a lot of experience with cats- I’ve owned and cared for kitties all my life. My friends and family have often relied on me over the years to step in and show up for them while they are away. I understand that each cat comes with a unique personality and set of needs that may be very different from one another. I know it can take time for a cat to warm up to a new person & thats okay, i’m patient! there’s no better feeling in the world than being accepted and befriended by a cat. 💜
“Ann is reliable and responsive! She’s on top of the cat care and always sends a cute photo that reassures me my kitties are well taken care of.”

“Our puppy had the best day with Kristopher. He was sensitive to our puppy’s needs, and eased her into meeting his crew when she was nervous on arrival. She seems to have had the best day, and we are so appreciative of his expertise with puppies.”
About: I grew up in a house filled with many family dogs of all different shapes, sizes and backgrounds. My grandparent raised me and I helped her look after all of her various animals from a very young age. I had my own Bernese Mt Dog Freya until November 2023, she lived until she was 12.5 years young which was an amazing achievement for her breed, she was the love of my life and hanging out with her was my all time favourite thing to do. I have always been the go to dog sitter for all of my friends and family since I was a teenager, I like to be around dogs as much as possible because they bring so much joy to each day, I have also worked with local dog shelters fostering & walking dogs. When a dog is in my care, they will receive unique care and attention based on their needs, I truly look forward to hanging out with your pup! I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, I can adjust and accommodate to a dog's specific care needs. I take daily walks with or without a pup in my care but a pup always makes the walk more fun and exciting! My home is set up for dogs due to having my own large dog for the last 10 years as well as many other dog visitors over the years, I live very near to a fantastic park and enjoy walks with pups.
“I left my pup in Lisa's care for a very short stint while I had to run some errands during a visit. She had a nice space for Yoda and multiple locking puppy gates to accommodate the dogs, and he was able to settle in even with her other house guests being big dogs.”
“Veronica took excellent care of our 13.5 year old Penny Lane. She took her on a walk with her pups and sent multiple photos throughout the day which we so appreciated. Veronica is a conscientious person who understands dog behavior. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Veronica to look after Penny Lane again in the future. Thank you, Veronica!”
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”
“Cathy was absolutely wonderful not only did she take Sheldon into her home he felt it home, but she has a nice patio and she took him out for a walk all for a four hour visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She’s a very loving, kind and compassionate individual to get five stars, but I’d give her six if there were six stars available. Thank you, Cathy”
“My dogs had a great day trip to Portland and stayed with Mark. He was very nice to work with. Quick response time too! Thanks so much for taking good care of Vladimir and Arthur!”
“Hannah & Blake are awesome dog sitters. They're super professional, and we never worry when our pup is with them. They send tons of fun photos and videos, and their backyard is a dog's dream. Our dog always has a blast. Highly recommend them if you want your dog to be safe and happy!”
“Thank you for watching Lilith! This was our first time using Rover, I was pretty anxious after drop off but your messages reassured me that things would be ok.”
“Damon is a wonderful sitter and handled my two dogs with such great care! They had a great time and came thoroughly exhausted and happy. We got videos and photos throughout the day which was awesome. Your dog will be super cared for and in great hands with Damon! I highly recommend him.”
“Xóchitl loved Gabriela. Thank you so much for taking such great care. We got pictures of their walks together. Excellent communication. Highly recommend Gabriela and would definitely have her watch our dog next time we are in town and need a sitter. Mil gracias Gabriela.”
“We are really pleased with our dog’s first stay with Peter and Missy! We appreciated being able to meet them and their sweet dog, Gunner, prior to booking with them. Peter and Missy seem very caring, conscientious and knowledgeable about dog care. After our dog’s visit, we were pleasantly surprised to receive information about our dog’s activities (e.g. map showing where he went on a walk, at what time and distance) and loved the photos! We appreciated them taking such great care of our dog!”
“Alayna took great care of my pup Johnnie, even when he had a small, unexpected accident at their apartment. She handled things with grace and care. Recommend!”
“Devin was great with my puppy. Found out that my pup has a little bit of separation anxiety, but Devin managed to keep her distracted with walks and play time. Very happy with our experience. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve care for pets of all sizes and temperaments, bringing a happy, reliable presence that animals and their humans quickly trust. With hands-on experience in pet sitting, walking, I prioritize each pet’s routine and well-being as if I were their mom. I’m currently working part-time in a tech and good job so I have flexible schedules on both weekdays and weekends. Happy to help with taking care of your dearest family member! I have a Shiba Inu girl (3-year-old), nice and well-behaved, she loves furry friends and gets along with them well. Let’s have a quality pet time together!
“Miss Pickles and Ginger had a wonderful day with Amber. They must have played hard because as soon as we picked them up and got them in the car, they fell sound asleep. Amber was very easy to communicate with and fast with her responses during the scheduling process. We will definitely use Amber again in the future!”
“It’s clear that Christopher and his family genuinely love dogs! He is easygoing, an excellent communicator, and incredibly accommodating. Mason felt comfortable right away and absolutely loves going to doggy daycare at Christopher’s. We have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring hands.”
“Emma and Kenzie are incredible and our dogs love them! They go above and beyond to help make life easier for us and even bathed our labs for us. I am so grateful to find such wonderful people who love dogs as much as I do to take care of my pups! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Thank you ladies for being absolutely awesome!”
“Jennifer is so kind and wonderful! She came to our rescue when we had an unexpected family emergency and needed last minute doggy day care for our two puppies! They were exhausted from playing all day and excited to go back for day two!”

“Adeline was an absolute joy. I broke my arm and she took care of my dog (and me) for weeks. She was kind, timely and conscientious. She made what could have been a very stressful time much easier to navigate. I have nothing but good things to say about her and suspect she will be successful in whatever endeavors she chooses in life. We're so lucky to know her.”
About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.
“Katlyn was wonderful and our Golden was so happy with her. She was punctual and communicated clearly with us. Our Golden is large and she handled him so well. We will definitely hire her in the future!”
“Andi has been amazing! Highly recommend. She is an excellent communicator, reliable, responsible, patient and loving with my little 5 month old shih tzu bulldog mix. I really appreciate Andi's willingness to talk this over, see how things fit and adjust from there. Thank you, Andi!!”
“Jennifer is such a wonderful dog walker! She is extremely thorough detailing every walk, how my dog is acting towards her and others as well as his eating/drinking habits. I love that she takes multiple pictures on the walks so I can see more of my dog’s activity. Jennifer is always really great about checking in and asking any questions that come up as well. Great at communicating with me always! It sounds like my dog gets super excited to see her everyday as well which is always great to hear ???”
“I don't have enough good things to say about Colby!! He walks my dog for me and just goes above and beyond for her. I've never used a dog walker before and was nervous to try it out and Colby just made the whole process so smooth and reassuring for me. He has excellent communication and sends cute photo updates. It's everything to me to know my baby is in good hands!”
“Katharine has walked Meatball several times now and we love her! She’s always on time, communicated honestly and directly, and is great with Meatball. Thanks Katharine.”
“Shianne is an exceptional dog walker! She's incredibly dependable, flexible, and has fantastic communication. She's also wonderfully sweet with our two corgis, and always makes sure they get a great workout. Our Lulu, who is obsessed with greeting people on her walks, especially loves her time with Shianne. She's my go-to person for our pups!”
“Simon is a reliable pet lover who clearly cares about animals. My dog loves her. I definitely recommend their services to any one looking for trustworthy care.”
“We got a new rescue who was struggling with trust and wouldn’t come out of her crate. Aislynn was very understanding and tried very hard to make her comfortable. She went above and beyond and really cares.”
“Lucinda made multiple extra visits to my house (outside of scheduled walks) to try & get my very fearful dog to get to know her. She is very patient & understanding, I just wish my dog would be more cooperative! I appreciate how she went above & beyond to try & accommodate my scaredy cat dog. <3”
About: I have loved dogs and cats since a young age. I had my birthday party at a humane society when I turned 10 and I think that story perfectly depicts my love for animals. I’ve been walking dogs at the Oregon Dog Rescue 3-4x per week for the last 6 months, so I’ve gained a lot of knowledge on walking reactive and larger dogs. I have a cat of my own and hope to get a dog someday soon, but I think walking dogs and spending time with them would be a perfect way to get my dog fix in the meantime :) I have lots of experience around dogs and enjoy their good-nature. I currently work a remote job so I have the flexibility to fit a a dog walk (or two) into my days, most likely Monday-Friday and potentially occasional weekends. I like to get outside and I like dogs so I thought this would be the perfect way to do both. My cat is definitely very loved and spoiled. She gets lot of attention and treats. I would extend this same love and care towards any dog/cat I would be spending time with, and try my best to make sure they feel safe and cared for in their time with me.

“I want to thank Heather for taking care of Mabel Mae. She shared pictures with me, let me know Mabel was having fun. She was very patient with Mabel, she is a 9 month old basset hound, so she is very active. When I reached out with a question Heather answered right away. Thank you Heather for taking such good care of my puppy!”
“Kristopher and his family did a wonderful job oc caring for Mochi. They are experienced and took time to learn about her specific needs prior to care. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing someone to take care of their fur baby and would use them again should the need arise. 5/5!”
“Our cat and dog were left in good hands with Leah and Chris. We got daily feedback and pictures. We could tell our dog got the exercise he needed and daily activities. In the past when we picked up our cat at sitters he comes to us ready to come home, but this time he just laid there looking at us in the other room, ignoring us when we called him to come. You can tell our animals were well taken care of and were happy.”
“Kimo is officially Connor's sitter. Connor usually stays with family for when my husband and I go out of town. We just moved to Portland just over a year and it's just the 3 of us, no family to watch him. I came on Rover and saw Kimo's profile and decided to message him. He responded very quickly and answered all my questions and concerns about leaving Connor with him, he made me feel very comfortable. Connor was with Kimo a week, and everyday he sent pictures, videos, and responded to my text immediately. I highly recommend Kimo to watch your fur baby/babies.”
“Chom Chom had a wonderful stay with Heath & Amy! They made sure he had plenty of time outside and lots of snuggles. Chom got a lot well with all the other pups and had a great time!”
