“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”


“Alicia is just the best! Our little Coco gets excited when we turn down Alicia street and greets her with kisses. Coco then runs into her house to see which of her friends are visiting too. We get daily reports and pictures on how Coco is doing when we travel. We appreciate Alicia.”

“Communication to make a specific plan that worked for our schedules went well, and she went out of her way to make accommodations for the dogs and us. Sounds like a great time was had with play and walks! Dogs were happy, clean, and all supplies organized and returned. I will plan to use her services again in the future.”

“Hannah was so accommodating and above and beyond with her communication! Teddy enjoyed his time there and found that Toose was bigger than him and a great playmate! Would use again!”

“We felt so fortunate to find Brittany and her husband! They are truly lovely people that genuinely care for your fur family. We were so relieved when we dropped our dog off as he doesn't always do well around people. He was calm and chill when he met them. We visited two kennels before discovering Rover.com. We were so worried about leaving him in a kennel. This was our first time boarding our dog so you can imagine all of the sleepless nights worrying about his boarding experience. We feel like we won the lottery discovering Brittany and Eric. They kept us updated with videos and pictures. We really appreciated how they had a great understanding on how to work with him. He got to socialize with other dogs, and got lots of play time outside. He is very nervous dog and in every picture and video he was having so much fun. They are true dog people so if you want your dog to experience a true vacation then look no further.”

About: Growing up with pets, I learned at a very young age, that our family dog did not like being ridden like a horse! While I've been around dogs all my life, most of my experience has been acquired during my adult years. I (Laura) am a freelancing Designer, and my husband (Lawrence) is a retired Registered Nurse. Together we have many years of experience raising our own family dogs: First we had a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, then two Yorkshire Terrier's, and currently a Pomeranian mix... ...We also raised a couple of boys, and their motley-menagerie of creatures. I think my heart doubled in size, when I realized I could combine two of my favorite passion's; hanging out with furry little Lapdogs, and creating miniature fashion's for Sport! I also really enjoy doing 'Street' photography of doggies and their humans. Dogs bring us so much joy, we just love making a fuss over them! We live near Downtown Cottage Grove, in one of it's walkable historic neighborhoods. Ours is a child-free home, offering 'Boarding' and 'Daycare' services--hosting only small lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. Additionally, we also do 'Drop-in' visits in 'your' home for small and medium size dogs. Our fully-fenced backyard features a variety of tree's and flower gardens, with lots of room to romp and play. It's complete with a covered patio that provides protection from rain or sun year around. Most importantly, we want you to feel worry-free, while we keep your doggie safe and happy! We are available full-time to provide pet care. Occasionally, I freelance from home--where I make and sell custom-fit dog wear, including alterations on existing doggie wearables. My husband is retired, so we have very flexible schedules to accommodate and host our Lapdog friends. We can host up to three Lapdogs per day/night. We also can do 'drop-in' visits to your home, for both small and medium size dogs. Well, around here, it's safety first! We host only Lap-size dogs up to 18 lbs. (Also, we only take small breed puppies.) Ours is a child-free home, with a fully-fenced backyard. We can host up to three dogs per day/night. I always sleep in the same room with our visiting doggies--either on our comfy sofas, or our king sized bed. My husband is a retired Registered Nurse. Please be mindful that visiting dogs need to be current with vaccines, flea & tick prevention, and an identity tag. We also have zoned heating and air conditioning throughout our house. There's several doggie-beds, toys, and crate (if requested) or feel free to provide your own. Also, we want to know about anything you think would be helpful in making your Doggie's visit a successful stay. We offer lots of love, cuddles, and belly rubs!
“Shannon did an amazing job! She is so kind, easy to work with, and truly cared for Marshmallow! She sent me photos of them on hikes & snuggling, which gave me a lot of peace while out of the state. I absolutely recommend working with Shannon!”

About: I've been actively taking care of dogs and cats for other military families since July 2018. Most of this care has been centered around boarding for long vacations or deployments. I provide boarding for all dog breeds, boarding includes; feeding, walking, baths, and cuddles. When your dog is in my care, they are treated like my own dogs. For cats I provide drop in care because most cats don't like being removed from their homes. I am a huge cat person and when your cat is in my care I will do anything to gain their trust. I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to provide board and drop in care daily. I am home most days from work at 3pm and have weekends off. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs of my own who are eager to play with new friends. I love to do treat hunts with toys and go for daily walks. For drop In care at your home I provide plenty of playtime, litter box cleaning, walking and cuddles with your pets.
“Jackie was awesome to work with and was super easy to work with. She sent regular pics, videos, and updates of our pup and I never had to worry if his needs were being met. He’s a big dog and can be a lot to handle but Jackie was awesome with him. Thank you Jackie!”

About: Ive taken care of all my own dogs since I was 15, we can bathe, give pills, walks, runs, park trips, rides in the car, hikes.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and providing plenty of affection and companionship.

I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and always prioritize your cat’s safety, happiness, and well-being while you’re away.
About: I can care for a wide variety of animals. Care will include lots of physical and mental stimulation, as well as anything else you’d like! Let me know if your animal(s) needs any additional care such as medication administration or needs to be kept separate from other animals, and I will be more than happy to accommodate your animal’s needs. There will also be an opportunity to become a private client to avoid the insane Rover fees, so you can save money and I get the full amount that you pay! (Currently, Rover takes 20% of my pay AND charges you even extra!) I do have full time school 3 days a week, so will be gone a good part of the day during those days. Dogs are required to be crated while I’m away. I will do my best to be flexible and use effective communication with all my clients. I have 2 dogs, a cattle dog and a golden retriever. I also have 2 cats at home as well. Let me know in advance if your animal(s) are reactive or aggressive to people or dogs. All dogs will have plenty of physical and mental exercise, and anything else that they need during the day. Bring toys, food, leashes, crates, and whatever else is needed at drop off.

“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

“Jessica was amazing with my kitty over Christmas. She communicated daily, sent pictures, and gave my kitty lots of treats, cuddles, and love. My kitty and house was well-cared for when I arrived home. She went above and beyond, bringing extra food when my kitty got low on wet food. I cannot recommend Jessica enough and will be my #1 choice when I need a sitter in the future.”

“We couldn’t be more pleased with Alicia and her daycare. We were visiting family and needed daycare for our elderly seizure dog. The experience was seamless and delightful. Alicia is professional, kind and demonstrates and true desire to provide a loving, supportive experience for our dog. When visiting again we would be thrilled to use her service. Thank you Alicia.”

“Jackie did wonders for my puppy, Oggie! He’s still very new to my home and I was so worried about what I would do for the first few days while I’m at work. She kept Oggie occupied and happy. He came home and just wanted to sleep 🥰. She sent plenty of photos and updates on how he was doing throughout the day. I’ll be working with her in the future! Thank you so much Jackie!”

“Hannah is amazing! She made my clingy and anxious chihuahua feel comfortable and right at home. ? I’m very particular about who I leave him with and she is friendly and answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. I received photos and updates during his stay! So glad I found her! Thank you!”

“Another great visit for Ruger with Tessa and Tyler and their family! Ruger has such a great time with them and Duke. It’s wonderful to have such caring people to leave him with. I feel so fortunate to have found them.”

About: I recently trained my high energy border collie mix puppy and although he’s still a teenager, he’s turned out to be a calm, caring, and gentle pup. Most of my pet sitting care has been done for cats, but I have house sat for a family with a Newfoundland, so I have experience with large breeds. I also have cared for a smaller dog that has OCD and separation anxiety. Thanks to the research and dedication that went into puppy training, I’m well aware of what their body language is signaling, and how to adapt according to what they’re feeling. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. My weekends are pretty flexible as well. Most of my plans are in the evenings (if I do have plans). I give my pets a predictable routine. The cats need a lot of attention as they’re very social. I take my pup to the dog park every couple of days, but I also tire him out through walks, herding games, and mental stimulation.
About: I am a seasoned puppy and dog owner with 10+ years experience of dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family. I am knowledgeable of the Eugene area and with caring for reactive dogs. I am a recent homesteader with a few years experience caring for goats, horses, donkeys, pigs, chickens and ducks. I love fostering an environment where dogs get to have fun and farm animals feel loved. Our two dogs are treated with respect and lots of love. Plenty of couch and bed time mixed with running around the property and playing fetch. We have a doggy pool for when our pups get too hot on those sunny PNW days. We treat client’s dogs as we treat our own. Licking and cuddling allowed!
About: Animals are everything to me, I treat each like my own, with protection, love, and care. I take care of your animals and make sure your home is clean before you come back. I am able to stay the day, or night. I fear no animal. We play, hangout, and have memories together. You pet will be in the best care possible when I am around. When you leave your dog will never feel alone, will never be alone. By the time I leave your furry friend will miss me. I have many references, many people that have me come back when they leave. I am experienced in all care with a big range of animals. I DO HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO WILL JOIN ME. SHE IS 2 YEARS OLD.
About: I have watched many dog when my moms friends where out of town. I have stayed the weekend and made sure they where taken care of. My schedule is pretty open seeing as I make my own schedule at work. And it’s summer so that’s even more time to help out. I have a very friendly dog! He gets lots of walks and my place has a court yard so he gets lots of runs and love.

“Danita was amazing! We were on vacation and needed a last minute sitter for our 4 fubabies. We found her last minute and are so grateful we did! She was completely up for the job. She was sweet and responsive and above all flexible for our needs. Our dogs loved her and felt right at home. She also sent us photos of them throughout their stay while we were gone, which I always love and appreciate. I would highly recommend her for anyone out there looking for care for your furbabies.”

About: Greeting, My name is Helen. I’ve recently completed my contract in the military. During my time in the service I spent time caring for my colleagues dogs (I do love cats, but I’m allergic) and found myself actually branching out to others when they needed someone to watch their babies. I grew up always having a dog in our family, and know how important they are as family members. Their unconditional love is something I’ve always cherished, and it would be my joy and honor to care for your fur babies whenever. My schedule is flexible, and I am available often. It’s really not a hardship spending time with loving pups. I do have experience with pets that have special needs. I look forward to hearing from you and your fur members.

About: I volunteered with Northeastern SPCA, North Carolina in 2012 to 2014. I volunteered with Placer SPCA, Roseville, California. I provided dogs with walks. I assisted dogs and cats with classical conditioning and lure/reward training. I assisted dogs with positive reinforcement, desensitization, and counter conditioning. I apply positive reinforcement and maintain a clean a sanitary environment. I will provide the best care for your little one or your big one, but we all know they’re all little. You’re dog, cat, or whatever your companion may be they deserve the best care and all the love. I am prepared to give that to them. I love and care for animals. I plan to become a vet technician and a pet groomer for my career. I provide a good atmosphere and environment. I am creative and outgoing. I’ve been on Rover a little over one year now, and I absolutely love the people and their fur babies. I’ve been around many different animals my whole life. I am looking forward to meeting you and the your best friend(s) on four paws.

I am always very careful in terms of safety and security of the home and during walks, I always maintain an open line of communication for any questions, updates or concerns you may have.

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and even reptiles. I am currently training to become a dog groomer and I’m taking classes to get my vet tech certification. I have the experience and knowledge necessary to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable and happy with me. I am currently working part time so I have the availability to care for your animals without anything impeding my ability to keep a close eye on them. My house is a large space with a very large fenced in back yard. I have two dogs that are easy to get along with. I have animal gates I can secure if you’d prefer your pets to be separated from my two small pups. I have 3 bedrooms so I can even dedicate a room to just your animal so they have a private and comfortable space.

“Jared took very good care of my Panini. She was very happy to have a walk during the middle of the day. Jared was friendly and responsive. Definitely will use him again for other services.”
About: It’s been rough - three rainbow bridge trips in short order. I need more time before I go down that road again, but in the meantime, I will happily love your dog (or cat, or parrot, or lizard, or...?) as if s/he were my own. I have a special fondness for seniors and special needs, but I’m game for anything. And, who doesn’t like puppies and an in-the-prime-of-lifer?? Ornery, shy, suspicious, or complicated personalities happily embraced. I am patient and sensitive to the fact that some animals need lots of closeness and reassurance while others need their space. I’m willing to work to earn their trust and set appropriate boundaries to earn yours. The pet and owner and I will work together to set the terms of our relationship, and I promise to be a most excellent guardian catering to each individual’s needs. My most consistent regular obligation is a daily trip to the barn to take care of my horse, but if needed, I have alternate coverage. I try to keep my presence low profile while I’m there. I appreciate the trust that comes with visiting in someone else’s home. When you come home, it’s nice for everyone if you can barely tell I was there.
About: I love all critters and have an especially soft place in my heart for the elderly and/or disabled. I started by volunteering for neighbors friends on trips or working 12 hours shifts, just to stay busy, and it was awesome to see how my daily visits helped their overall health over time. Visiting with critters is always the highlight of my day. I move slowly, carefully, speak softly, so my energy is a great fit for older or anxious animals. I love them all, and every step. Greeting, walking, playing, chilling, pets and massage, special diets, and I have no problem helping administer medicine or any extra special care that is needed. It would be an honor to be of service for you and your fur baby :) I am flexible and available, single, no kids, and also a home care worker. I only work 4 hour shifts, so pet care can very easily fit in and around my other work schedule. When I meet you and your pet, you can show me the care routine, and I will confirm that I understand every step. What works well is if the supplies are visible and steps are also written down and left somewhere I can refer to if needed. I will take photos to either text or email you while I am at your home with an update for each visit.
About: I have had dogs of varied sizes, temperaments, and ages throughout my life from pug/shitzus, to chow chows, to Goldens, and have loved them all. I am currently working part-time from home, so my availability to watch and care for dogs is very flexible and abundant. Including weekends and most holidays. My home is close to town country living. I am on 6 acres with very large fenced fields and a peaceful road to walk and wooded trails to explore close by. I have a 7 year old Golden Retriever that gets along well with other dogs, but also has a place to stay if your dog needs one-on-one attention.
“Congxiao (Jennifer) and her daughter (Samantha) took care of our two small dogs over a long weekend and did an amazing job! I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them for both care and dog walking.”


About: I am an animal lover with many years of experience with cat and dog care. I have had rescue dogs and dealt with difficult breeds, large and small. I am comfortable with any animal with any temperament. I have experience with gentle training techniques and can support you in any effort regarding your animal's behavior if needed. I am always concerned with the utmost care of an animal and their safety and experience. I know every dog or cat is unique and have their own needs and am happy to accommodate them and you both feel safe and confident while your animal is in my care. I can provide excellent care to any animal. I have experience with whole food diets, and I can even do acupressure!
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and believe every pet deserves the same care, attention, and affection they get at home. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime to older pets who need a gentler touch. I’m active and love going on walks, but I also know how important cuddles, patience, and routines are for pets to feel secure. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping your furry friend company, I treat every pet as if they were my own I am a stay at home mom, so I can easily be with your pets all day! I am very active, so I love to take walks and do lots of potty breaks. We have a fenced yard so they can play outside. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-friendly, and free from hazards. I keep a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, and playtime so pets feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, to keep things as familiar as possible for their pet. I also send regular photo and text updates so pet parents have peace of mind knowing their furry loved one is happy and safe.
About: Throughout my life, I’ve had a deep love for animals. Over the past couple of years, I’ve been actively engaged in dog sitting, and my dream is to establish my own dog sitting business. While I currently don’t have any pets in my apartment, as they reside with my parents in Montana, I am excited about this opportunity to dog sit, not only because of my passion for animals but also to supplement my income as a University of Oregon student athlete . I have a genuine affection for dogs, cats, and all types of animals, and if chosen, I assure you that I’ll be the best dog or cat sitter you could find. This opportunity means a lot to me, and I would be grateful if you considered me as your pet sitter. I am currently a track athlete at the university of Oregon so I am busy with practice but that is really the only thing I have to do. And I have practice Monday through Saturday but I don’t have anything on Thursdays. I ensure a comfortable environment by providing proper bedding, toys, and familiar items. Regular feeding, walks, and playtime are essential. I also follow any specific instructions from the pet owner regarding medications or special routines. Clean water and a safe space are priorities.
About: There’s nothing I love more than animals! I have had and cared for them my entire life and have years of experience walking and feeding dogs, cats, and many other animals. I am reliable and can be flexible when needed. In my free time I volunteer at Greenhill animal shelter and have lots of experience with all types of dogs and their needs. I am currently a college student and have a pretty open schedule. I am always looking for ways to help out and love surrounding myself with animals. I am a very active person and love walking, hiking, trips to the beach, or just laying around keeping them company! I have classes and work but times vary for each. I follow rules and do everything that is asked, I leave everything as I came and pick up after myself. I ensure to always ask questions to avoid problems, better safe than sorry!

About: I have taken care of all types of animals since I was a little girl. My friends and family have taught me a lot about being a good caretaker , and having a very antsy and athletic black lab has given me a lot of experience. I work part time so I have plenty of time to walk and care for animals, spend time with the dogs outside and giving them all the attention they need. I think every dog is different, while some dogs can sit outside with no out lying fear of running away, while others need leashes and fences so I will be accommodating for each dogs needs

“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”


“Alicia is just the best! Our little Coco gets excited when we turn down Alicia street and greets her with kisses. Coco then runs into her house to see which of her friends are visiting too. We get daily reports and pictures on how Coco is doing when we travel. We appreciate Alicia.”

“Communication to make a specific plan that worked for our schedules went well, and she went out of her way to make accommodations for the dogs and us. Sounds like a great time was had with play and walks! Dogs were happy, clean, and all supplies organized and returned. I will plan to use her services again in the future.”

“Hannah was so accommodating and above and beyond with her communication! Teddy enjoyed his time there and found that Toose was bigger than him and a great playmate! Would use again!”

“We felt so fortunate to find Brittany and her husband! They are truly lovely people that genuinely care for your fur family. We were so relieved when we dropped our dog off as he doesn't always do well around people. He was calm and chill when he met them. We visited two kennels before discovering Rover.com. We were so worried about leaving him in a kennel. This was our first time boarding our dog so you can imagine all of the sleepless nights worrying about his boarding experience. We feel like we won the lottery discovering Brittany and Eric. They kept us updated with videos and pictures. We really appreciated how they had a great understanding on how to work with him. He got to socialize with other dogs, and got lots of play time outside. He is very nervous dog and in every picture and video he was having so much fun. They are true dog people so if you want your dog to experience a true vacation then look no further.”

About: I've been actively taking care of dogs and cats for other military families since July 2018. Most of this care has been centered around boarding for long vacations or deployments. I provide boarding for all dog breeds, boarding includes; feeding, walking, baths, and cuddles. When your dog is in my care, they are treated like my own dogs. For cats I provide drop in care because most cats don't like being removed from their homes. I am a huge cat person and when your cat is in my care I will do anything to gain their trust. I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to provide board and drop in care daily. I am home most days from work at 3pm and have weekends off. I have a fully fenced in yard with two dogs of my own who are eager to play with new friends. I love to do treat hunts with toys and go for daily walks. For drop In care at your home I provide plenty of playtime, litter box cleaning, walking and cuddles with your pets.
“Jackie was awesome to work with and was super easy to work with. She sent regular pics, videos, and updates of our pup and I never had to worry if his needs were being met. He’s a big dog and can be a lot to handle but Jackie was awesome with him. Thank you Jackie!”
