“Daniela was fantastic! She watched my two springer spaniels over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos of the pups having a great time with their new dog buddy Ranier. I couldn't have felt more confident that my dogs were being well cared for! Thank you Daniela! We'll definitely be back”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Simply amazing! My Lana had a wonderful time with Jeanne that I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home. The love and care Jeanne showed Lana is what any pet owner would want their fur baby to get…thank you SO much Jeanne!”
“Heather was absolutely amazing with Biggie and Peaches! She made them feel at home. Also took time to accommodate to their schedule. Will definitely be calling her again for Biggie and Peaches.”
“Jordan and Lio were great. Jordan was friendly and very accommodating. We had a friend drop off Marla while we were hiking the PCT and everything went so smoothly. Marla seemed rested and well taken care of during her stay in Ashland. Lio has those nice chill vibes so new comers feel comfortable. ?”
“Anika takes great care of our active alert doodle-mutt! Rosie is happy and tired, calm and relaxed — Anika provides a fantastic place where dogs can be safe and have fun — thanks so much!!”
“Serena was absolutely incredible with my dog Oliver! He was instantly happy to meet her and her family at the meet great and had a wonderful weekend getting spoiled with lots of cuddles and walks everyday! Will absolutely be booking with Serena in the future!”
“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”
“Julianne and Ragen took great care of our pup Georgia, they were flexible and accommodating and get me up date while we were away. We will use them again in the future if we can!”
“Denise & her husband were wonderful with Henry. They gave him lots of love and snuggles, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been well cared for. Denise will always be our first pick for our boarding needs!”
“Linda was FANTASTIC! My wife and I am very protective of our French Bulldog, Penny. We rarely leave her alone and never for 9 days. But we had a vacation cruise booked and had to find a sitter for Penny. We were both very nervous leaving her anywhere for so long. But Linda put us to ease after meeting her and touring her home. She has a large backyard and I personally walked the perimeter (twice!) carefully looking for any holes or places a small dog could weasel out. It's secure! One thing we really appreciated was that Linda works from home and was with Penny the entire time. We got updates and pictures daily and that helped us relax and enjoy our vacation. Penny got lots of love and attention and care. Most important to us, she was safe. Thank you Linda! We will be back.”
About: I have have multiple years of caring for people's pets. I was a professional housekeeper with my own business for over 20 years and also cared for their animals when they were away. I have been a long time pet owner myself and recently my fur babies passed away. I am looking to earn a little extra income as a senior while enjoying the company of animals. I am a senior and I am retired. Recently my fur babies passed away and I am looking to supplement my income while caring for people's pets. I really miss having animals in my home. I live in a senior mobile home park and I have a fenced in yard. I make sure that animals are safe, fed watered, walked and get plenty of potty breaks. They will get lots of love. I keep the yard clear of poop so that their environment is healthy for them.
“Adrienne was amazing. She showed so much love for Ted and her dogs are super sweet. They all got along really well. She kept me updated throughout the day and I truly appreciate all the pictures she sent of Ted. Lots of walks. Ted found his family in Medford and he's going back the next chance he gets!”
“We were so happy with Jennifer and her girls taking care of Vinny. She sent us pictures and really helped us feel comfortable about his stay. We would definitely use Jennifer again.”
“Kyndra was great at communicating, sent us pictures and video of our dog and he was having the time of his life! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more happy. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kyndra to anyone. Thanks again! ❤️”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”

“Autumn is great, and highly recommended (but please don't keep her so busy we can't book her again!) She paid close attention to every detail when she came to get instructions from us, kept every agreement fully, and went out of her way to establish report with our VERY skittish kitty. :)”
About: I recently had two rescue heeler mixes. We competed in agility, and did herding, barn hunt, and parkour. I loved to hike, walk, run, and be active with my dogs. Now that they're gone, I have an open space in my heart for time with yours. I walk and run or hike several days out of the week. I'd love to bring your well-behaved dog along for their enjoyment and my company! Because I live up a steep gravel driveway, I prefer to meet in town or at your place to take your dog for a walk or run. But if they need to come to my place for sitting, I have a fenced yard with some agility equipment. I also have a dog door, to let them have free access to my .5 acre fenced yard. I do have a cat, so if your dog comes to my place, it will have to get along with her.
“Dean did a great job. He was on time, spent time with my kitties and made sure they were well taken care of. I highly recommend Dean and I will use his services going forward.”
About: Cats deserve just as much individualized attention as dogs, and I strive to provide a calm, low-stress environment where they can settle in comfortably while you're away. I have over 14 years of experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, from outgoing social butterflies to those who simply prefer a quiet place to observe. Whether your cat enjoys attention or likes to take things at their own pace, I tailor my care to their individual routine and comfort level. My background includes veterinary shadowing and experience administering oral and injectable medications. I'm comfortable caring for senior cats, kittens, and those with special medical or dietary needs. Boarding cats are provided with their own quiet space away from resident dogs so they can relax without unnecessary stress. I closely monitor eating, drinking, litter box habits, behavior, and overall comfort throughout their stay and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands. Whether your cat is staying overnight while you're traveling or simply needs a comfortable place to stay for a few days, my goal is to make their experience as peaceful, safe, and familiar as possible.
“Lacey and her daughter Olivia were wonderful! I needed a sitter last minute and they came to the rescue! Their communication was excellent (including pics with the check-ins) and were flexible with the short-notice information. Would definitely recommend and hire again!”
“Diana was AMAZING! We are so glad we found her to watch our fur baby Max. She went above and beyond while we were away. She pays attention to detail, she is reliable, friendly, and so caring/good with animals! We will 100% be working with Diana again!”
About: I own three cats and treat them like they’re my children! I will take care of yours and treat them with the same love. Every cat is unique, I will respect their boundaries and give them all the love they want.
“Dennis and Judy cared for my cat for a week. They spent time with her and entertained her. They sent pictures of my happy cat! I would definitely have them care for my cat again!”
“Emalyn was amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She met my boys same day as a last minute drop-in & surprised me with how much my 4 year old dog warmed up to her! (Never seen him so calm with someone new) Will happily have her again & again!”
“Andrea took great care of my cats while I was away over night. She was very professional and clearly cares about animals and making sure that their people feel comfortable and reassured. She kept me updated, and I wasn’t worried for a moment while I was gone.”
About: I've had cats throughout my life and am very comfortable caring for cats of all ages and personalities. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers quiet companionship, I'll respect their needs and routine. I can provide feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication administration when needed, and lots of attention to help them feel comfortable while you're away.
About: I’ve owned cats for all my life and have learned their needs through their body language. I love spending time with them but also know that the socialization is up to them, I hate forcing any animal to do anything. I value their feelings. I hope to make your cat’s time away from you as peaceful and enjoyable as possible, catering to your cat’s specific needs.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities and understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while your away. Hi!

About: *BRITT Festival Adjacent * Hi, my name is Diana. I have been taking care of all different types of pets and all breeds and sizes of dogs for over 25+ years. I am a groomer & I have volunteered at animal shelters. I am a certified Pet Care Specialist. I have owned cats, dogs, birds, reptiles and fish.When I'm watching your pets you can always reach me by phone 24/7. I will look after your pets as if they were my own! I look forward to meeting you and your pets, See you soon! Please don't hesitate to text me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and supplying them with what they need. And as many walks as needed. Trips to local dog parks are available, too! Bring beds, kennels, toys , food and any instructions for a more personalized visit. They can hang out with us all day! Have a great day.
About: I have over 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My background includes lifelong pet ownership, kennel work, veterinary shadowing, and professional pet sitting through Rover. I am comfortable caring for energetic puppies, senior pets, dogs requiring medications (including oral and injectable medications), and pets with special routines or needs. My goal is to provide a calm, structured home where every pet feels safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog is different—some love to play, while others simply want a quiet place to relax. I tailor each stay to your pet's personality, energy level, and routine whenever possible. Safety is one of my highest priorities. I carefully supervise introductions, monitor body language and stress signals, and use separate spaces, baby gates, and crates (when appropriate or requested) to ensure every pet has a positive experience. I believe thoughtful planning and honest communication create the best boarding experience for both pets and their owners. My husband Andrew and I work together to provide attentive care, which means there are two experienced adults available for walks, playtime, supervised introductions, potty breaks, medication administration, and lots of affection. I don't believe every dog is the right fit for every environment—and that's okay. My goal is to ensure every booking is the right fit so every pet can have the safest, happiest, and least stressful experience possible. Whether your pet is staying overnight, spending the day while you're exploring Southern Oregon, or simply needs a safe place to relax while you're out to dinner or attending an event, I strive to treat every guest like a member of our own family. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to maintain it while they're in my care. Whether your pet enjoys active play, leisurely walks, or simply lounging nearby, I tailor each day to their individual personality and energy level. I currently work part-time outside the home, but my schedule is intentionally arranged around pet care. Throughout the day, your pet will receive regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, enrichment, exercise, plenty of affection, and opportunities to rest. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is doing well. Your pet's safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I provide care in a calm, home environment with a fully fenced backyard, baby gates for flexible separation when needed, and thoughtful introductions between dogs. I believe every pet deserves an environment that matches their personality. Some dogs enjoy having a playmate, while others are happiest relaxing on their own—and that's perfectly okay. Our resident pets include: • Benny, our friendly German Shepherd/Border Collie mix, who enjoys meeting new dogs but understands that not every guest wants to play. • Cricket, our tiny 6-pound Chihuahua mix, who generally prefers to quietly observe from a distance. Every once in a while he'll decide another dog is his new best friend—and if that happens, they've definitely won the lottery! Because every pet is different, I supervise interactions closely and adjust the environment to help everyone feel comfortable. My goal is never to force interactions, but to create a positive, low-stress experience for every guest. For first-time boarding and daycare guests—particularly larger dogs or adolescent puppies—I may recommend a Meet & Greet beforehand to ensure my home is the best fit for everyone.
“I last minute needed a new dog walker for my two pups, and Jordan was able to jump right in and become that awesome, trusted, & reliable person we needed. He is great with my two high energy dogs, and we appreciate all his care, help, & time.”

About: I love pets. I’ve always had dogs of my own. I would give your pet the quality and attention that it deserves in your absence. I will provide walks and interactions to make sure your pet is okay while you are away. You can feel confident that your pet will be properly cared for and adored. There will not be places in my home where your pet will not be allowed to roam. I have a fully fenced front and backyard that will allow your pet the space it needs to roam safely. I am reliable and attentive to your requests and recommendations. Please let me know anytime that you need quality care for your pet. I am around the house most days. I take my dogs on daily adventures and have consistent interactions. I make sure that they have access to both the front yard and the house. I have a fenced yard that will properly keep your pet contained. My pets are able to roam free upstairs but not allowed to go downstairs in bedrooms.
“My pups immediately took to Dennis & Judy. They look forward to their walks with them. My Perry is older, 16, and I feel confident with Dennis & Judy walking him along with Zoey is younger but can be skittish.”
About: I’ve owned pets for all my life and believe that all animals deserve to be treated with kindness and love. I’ve helped walk and dog sit for people for four years now. I’ve stayed with puppies, senior dogs (barely can walk and use the bathroom), and dogs filled with anxiety. I hope to make your pet’s time away from you as peaceful and enjoyable as possible. I’m home from college this summer so my schedule is very open to staying with a pet for however long they need. Staying over night or just a few hours to keep them entertained, loved, and cared for all work perfectly with my schedule. I love to spend personal time with my clients’ pets, making sure their nervous systems are regulated and cared for. I don’t just care for their physical health but also mental. I can stay at my client’s house and take pets on daily walks, making sure they get plenty of of exercise.
About: With over three decades of personal dog ownership and a lifetime of nurturing experience, I bring a uniquely patient, structured, and loving approach to pet care. As a school teacher of 26 years and a dedicated Guide Dogs for the Blind puppy raiser, I excel at clear communication, positive reinforcement, and managing routines. Whether your pet needs an energetic running partner for the trails or a calm, attentive companion, my background as a mom and outdoor enthusiast ensures they will receive the highest standard of safety, enrichment, and care. I am working from home during summer break and enjoy being outdoors with animals. I can work with animals all days of the week and love helping pet owners feel confident in the care choices. I have a fenced yard with two friendly Labrador Retrievers. They are both neutered males. One is 12 years old and the other is 4 years old. I am able to care for pets on my home or I can come to your home if that is better for your pet.
About: I am bilingual in English and Spanish! I am very active and available. I will care for your animal with all my love and attention. I have 4 pets of my own, so I understand the seriousness of pet needs. Also have experience giving medication to dogs. I am a chiropractic assistant and work Monday-Thursday. I am available to sit or walk animals every evening and on weekends. I am very flexible! With four cats, I pride on keeping a clean and sanitary home! They deserve the best, and so do your babies. I am willing to stay at your place and keep things exactly the way you want them!
“This guy is kickass. He really cares about your pet and he went out of his way to be respectful of any requests I had for my pup. He even showed up the night to introduce himself and get to know my pup named max. Max loves him and I probably will use his services in the future”
“I couldn’t be happier with the dog walking service! My dog was happy, relaxed, and well-exercised. What really made my day were the adorable pictures that were sent during the walk — it was so reassuring to see my pup having such a great time! Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again.”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have several years of hands-on pet care experience. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets while they're away, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I am currently working part time remotely, therefore I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and extended pet sitting depending on your needs. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicative, and attentive so you can feel confident your pets are receiving excellent care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having grown up with both dogs and cats, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing supervision, and creating a calm environment. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and house rules. Whether caring for pets in your home or during walks and visits, I treat every animal as if they were my own and ensure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care.
About: I have 2 years of pet care experience providing dependable, compassionate care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. I work Monday through Thursday, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pet before, after and between work. On my days off, I have even more time to provide walks, playtime, and personalized attention, so your pet will always receive the love and care they deserve. Pets are welcome to freely roam throughout my home in a safe, comfortable environment. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in their crate, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel secure, loved, and at home during their stay.
About: Wide range of experiences. Grew up on a farm in Germany feeding cows, always have owned pets from cats, dogs, lizards, fish, rats etc. I’ve worked at dog training and boarding facilities called Sweet Doggies and CALIK9 in Sunnyvale, California for three+ years. At those facilities I cared/trained for up to 50+ dogs in an free range area. I’m usually the go to friend when people need their pets to be babysat because they’re going out of town, usually it’s older cats and dogs that need special care, health needs and attention. I love all animals in general and I’d care for your pet as if they were my own and my own are very very loved. I typically work Thursdays-Saturdays from 6p-3am. I also work at music festivals and will leave weeks at a time but as long I’m in town I’ll make it work! I currently do not take pets to my home since I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own in an apartment. Any additional needs a client needs for their pets, I will be sure to take precautions!

“Adrienne did a wonderful job walking my dog for two weeks. She was very communicative and she put my older dog's needs first. You can definitely tell that she is a dog lover! I would certainly recommend Adrienne to anyone else needing help with walks.”
“We just met Anika. My dog is super shy with people when she first meets them, but not Anika. She definitely passed the vibe test for my dog Stella. I felt 100% comfortable having Anika come into my home and walk my dog. It is such a stress reliever knowing I can trust someone to help me care for Stella on a long work day. I definitely noticed on the days Anika walked Stella, Stella was way more chill when I got home from work . I appreciated Anika’s communication and her love for working with dogs is evident. She is not someone doing a side gig as a dog walker. She has years of experience and knowledge working with pets. I’m grateful we found her.”

“Dillon has been awesome! He communicates well and is understanding. If he can accommodate last-minute changes, he will. Draco is smiling in almost every picture that is submitted on his Rover card; it brings me a tremendous peace of mind when I have to work long days to know that Dillon is there giving my boy rubs, loves and treats!”

She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Jordan and Lio were great. Jordan was friendly and very accommodating. We had a friend drop off Marla while we were hiking the PCT and everything went so smoothly. Marla seemed rested and well taken care of during her stay in Ashland. Lio has those nice chill vibes so new comers feel comfortable. ?”
“Anika takes great care of our active alert doodle-mutt! Rosie is happy and tired, calm and relaxed — Anika provides a fantastic place where dogs can be safe and have fun — thanks so much!!”
“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”
“Julianne and Ragen took great care of our pup Georgia, they were flexible and accommodating and get me up date while we were away. We will use them again in the future if we can!”
“Adrienne was amazing. She showed so much love for Ted and her dogs are super sweet. They all got along really well. She kept me updated throughout the day and I truly appreciate all the pictures she sent of Ted. Lots of walks. Ted found his family in Medford and he's going back the next chance he gets!”
“We were so happy with Jennifer and her girls taking care of Vinny. She sent us pictures and really helped us feel comfortable about his stay. We would definitely use Jennifer again.”
“Kyndra was great at communicating, sent us pictures and video of our dog and he was having the time of his life! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more happy. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kyndra to anyone. Thanks again! ❤️”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”
“Juli took such great care of Bandit like he’s one of her own. We were also comforted knowing Bandit had access to a yard and an air conditioned space since it was especially hot that day. Juli kept us informed of how he was doing, which was also very reassuring. Would definitely have Bandit stay with Aunt Juli again. :)”
“Patricia is an amazing sitter. I came from WA, drove to Medford, then had to board my dog Blue while I flew to Phoenix, AZ and drove back to Medford with my Dad. Many things went wrong on the trip, but not once did I have to worry about Blue at all. Patricia sent me pictures and updates to let me know he was doing okay, but even without those, I knew she would take good care of him. You could tell she loved animals and was responsible. I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind she brought me. Thank you again Patricia!”
About: I have 2 years of pet care experience providing dependable, compassionate care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. I work Monday through Thursday, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pet before, after and between work. On my days off, I have even more time to provide walks, playtime, and personalized attention, so your pet will always receive the love and care they deserve. Pets are welcome to freely roam throughout my home in a safe, comfortable environment. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in their crate, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel secure, loved, and at home during their stay.
“Linda was awesome, our puppy was so zonkered out we got the puppy respite we so much needed. Got her night early we missed her so much, thank you again for being so attentive to our furbaby. We appreciate your patience with us for our first rover booking 😊.”
“Garrett and Monica were loving hosts to Jake - our energetic Doodle. We received plenty of updates and photos which helped reassured us while away. I recommend them.”
“I can’t even begin to express how grateful we are to have found Dorthy to watch our sweet fur baby, Pippy! They took fantastic care of her with updates and photos the entire time. Our sweet girl took a doggy vacation while we were away with nature walks, fun with the other dogs, play time, long naps, and brushing her out. She was one happy girl all weekend long! Thank you so much for loving our girl and playing with her. It brought us a lot of comfort knowing she was having a blast and safe. I am excited for our next trip and more puppy vacations for Pip! This was better than leaving her with our family!”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have always had at least one dog or cat in our home, as well as others often like fish and reptiles. I even lived and worked on a goat farm for a while and milked and cared for the goats. I'm an avid hiker and am happy to walk your dog for any length preferred on trail or road. In my other work I have over 15 years of experience as a healer (massage therapy and energy work) and meditation/yoga instructor and bring the calm this field has taught me to pet care. I'm used to hearing pet people tell me that their pets are so calm around me. I seek to form a connection based on trust and understanding with your pet. I am, without a doubt, a cat lady having had cats in my life since the age of 5. I currently have a sweet and sensitive Calico, who has lived with me for the past 11 years. She is a finicky eater and often deals with digestive issues, so I've had plenty of experience with various food regimes and giving supplements. We also have a sweet, playful, young male cat in our home (my daughter's cat) and a beloved bearded dragon. We recently welcomed a Shiba Inu into our family and she is such a joy in our home. I offer pet care as a side gig to my other work and love any opportunity to connect with your furry friends and other pets. I offer pet care part-time in addition to other work I do. I'm happy to walk dogs most weekdays/weekends between 8 am-3 pm and I can do pet check-in's most weekdays and some weekends and holidays with a few days notice. I am sometimes available for overnight pet stays in your home with ample prior notice. When coming to your home, I follow what usual routines you share with me for your pet and treat your home with utmost respect and care. If you have a preferred route to take your dog on a walk or favorite dog park, I'm happy to go with whatever your norm is and will make your dog most comfortable.
