“I have a very difficult older rescue dog and Jules handled him beautifully! My other dog is an angel but a little shy, and Jules made her feel at home. I didnt worry and loved the updates. Great small dog home away from home.”
“You will not find more attentive and caring hosts than Dan and Dave! Our very anxious older dog was quickly at home with them and their sweet chihuahua, Hoss. Our Maisie was walked twice a day and I was sent pictures and updates each day. I couldn't recommend them more highly! They are wonderful pet hosts!!”
“This is the second time we’ve left Nalu with her for a long period of time. She communicates well and sends videos and pictures throughout the stay! He came home so happy and I was at peace knowing he was well taken care of!”
“I'm so glad we met Shelby through Rover. She made us feel so comfortable leaving our senior dog for the night. She was communicative, sent pics, and several updates throughout our dog's stay. We appreciate the love she gave our girl and highly recommend her!”
“If you need a sitter for your pet don't look for anyone else but Jade!! She made us feel at ease with our meet and greet and is very professional. We were nervous about leaving Maisie with someone but she started sending pictures and videos almost immediately and put us right at ease. We didn't worry the whole time we were gone. Jade is our go to sitter for Maisie from now on!!!!!”
“Gayle was AMAZING with my fur babies. She was very good at communicating and giving updates and photos during their stay. My babies opened up so much while spending time with her and Sitka. She was very flexible and was able to keep them for an extra night when my plans changed last minute. We are very grateful to her for taking such good care of our pups and will gladly book with her again ?”
“My dog has a great time with Bradley. He seemed very happy and got plenty of attention and activity. Bradley wa great in communication, genuine affection for pups. I’d definitely look to Bradley in the future for dog sitting.”
“Arielle was amazing!!! This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone other than family! She made us feel so at ease & remained in contact with us throughout his stay! She sent us pictures so we could see how he was doing & it looked like he was on vacation!!! She accepted him last minute & he came home so content & exhausted from his playtime! We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”
“Danielle really came through for me at the last minute, I'm so grateful! She was very kind and attentive with my dog, Esther, sending adorable pics and updates. Esther is an anxious girl, but she seemed to relax in Danielle's home, it really put me at ease. Thank you again!”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Christina was easy to work with, very responsive and kept us updated the entire time she watched our cat, Gus! I would highly recommend and will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Karlie was very flexible and easy to plan with. Her house is very dog friendly and her pup, Dresden, is a great playmate! Our dog didn’t care when we left at drop off because she was already having so much fun.”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”

We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”
About: I have taken care of cats and all animals since a very young age! I am very confident in cleaning, feeding, administering medications, even bathing! I used to work at a vet/daycare/grooming job and now work as a veterinary assistant and have been around cats for a long time! I have 3 happy kitties of my own!
About: I’ve spent more than 20 years around cats of every temperament, from mellow house companions to high-maintenance personalities. I’ve cared for everything from playful Manx and shy rescues to a proud flame-point Persian who kept me humble through high school. I understand feline boundaries, body language, and the patience it takes to earn their trust. Whether your cat is social, skittish, or simply set in their ways, I’ll keep them comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’m Noelle, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. From a young age, I’ve been fortunate enough to grow up in a household that nurtured a love for all creatures. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, horses, pigs, hamsters, and even a few cows. This diverse experience has helped me develop a deep understanding of different animal behaviors and care requirements, whether it’s a playful puppy, a quiet cat, or a curious hamster. In addition to taking care of my own pets at home, I’ve had the privilege of helping friends, family, and neighbors with their animals, which has allowed me to build my skill set even further. I’m comfortable with everything from basic pet care tasks like feeding and cleaning up after animals, to more specialized needs like administering medications or managing animals with unique health requirements. My experience also extends to larger animals like horses and pigs, where I’ve learned about proper feeding, grooming, and the importance of creating a comfortable and safe environment. I’m highly familiar with setting and sticking to a pet’s daily routine. Whether it’s a puppy needing regular walks or a senior cat requiring extra time to relax, I take great pride in ensuring each animal’s needs are met. This experience has taught me to quickly adapt to each pet’s individual personality and preferences, making sure they feel secure and loved while you're away. If your pet enjoys outdoor adventures, I love taking them to the park, going for walks, or engaging in playtime, giving them the exercise and mental stimulation they need. On the flip side, if your pet prefers quiet time, I’m more than happy to spend the day lounging at home, providing them with companionship and relaxation. I understand that every pet is different, so I always adjust my approach based on what will make them feel most comfortable. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll carefully follow the routines and guidelines you’ve set in place. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s preferences, whether they love playing outside or prefer to stay indoors, and I’ll make sure their environment is calm, clean, and loving. I know how important it is for your pet to feel like they’re in safe hands, and I go above and beyond to ensure they get the attention and care they need. At home, I have several pets of my own, so I’m used to feeding schedules, cleaning up after them multiple times a day, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to keep pets happy and healthy, and I bring that same energy to every pet I care for. If I’m watching your pets in your home, I’ll take the time to understand their routine — whether they go outside or stay indoors, how you feed and interact with them — and do my best to follow your care style as closely as possible
“Emily was awesome! I was super nervous because I had never had someone watch my dog before but she took great care of my high energy dog while I was gone. Will definitely schedule again sometime!”
About: I have all kinds of animals my whole life including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters, cattle and pigs. I am currently going to Linn-Benton studying animal science. I am currently going to school in the early afternoons Monday-Thursday so I have plenty of time to care for your babies afternoons, nights, and early mornings. I have a fully fenced yard for your dogs to play in. I have access to a crate if necessary or required. I also have a spayed female dog to keep them company.
About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats of all ages and my own baby is over 4 years old now! I’m a huge cat lover who understands that every kitty has their own personality, boundaries, and routine. 🐱💖 Whether your cat is playful and social or more shy and independent, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for awhile you’re away.
About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!
“Alivia was great with our two golden retrievers! She did drop ins for us during the day while we were working. She brought our dogs toys and treats. Phoebe and Winston give this rover sitter a A++! We will definitely use Alivia in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals for over 5 years and have hands-on experience with large breeds, working dogs, reactive dogs, and high-energy personalities. I currently own German Shepherds as well as two chinchillas, so I understand the importance of species-specific care, structure, enrichment, and maintaining a safe environment. I’m comfortable with crate routines, medication administration, basic training reinforcement, long walks, litter box care, feeding routines, and reading animal body language. My professional background in high-stress environments has also made me calm, dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative. I know how important trust is when leaving your pets with someone else, and I treat every animal like they’re my own.
About: I really love getting to know each cat’s personality. Some cats are playful and social, some are shy and independent, and I’m happy to go at their pace. I have my own cat, Mango, so I’m very used to daily cat care like feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, treats, and paying attention to little changes in behavior. I’m patient, gentle, and truly enjoy making cats feel safe and comfortable while their people are away.
“Erin was so helpful and exactly what my cat, Jared needed for a pet sitter! Erin’s attention to my pet’s needs and love for animals really shows! 100% will book Erin again, and I recommend Erin to anyone needing a pet sitter!……unless it conflicts with my bookings, ha ha. 😺”
About: I am a certified cat lover!! I have my own cat, her name is Bebop. I have experience pet sitting with cats that have specific dietary restrictions and medications they need to take. Overall I understand cat boundaries and am wanting to make your kitty as comfy and happy as possible! :)
About: I grew up with three dogs in my house, and many more coming in and out. I have lots of experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I got a COVID puppy in 2019, so I also have experience with training high energy pups! I truly love all animals and would love to help your family out where I can! I currently only work 3 days a week and have plenty of time in the evenings on those days. Other than that, I am free! In your home, I will follow all the rules you have in place while providing gentle, loving care for your animals! In my own home, keeping up with diet, exercise, and training is important for my pups.
About: With over six years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs, cats, and even small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs. From daily walks and playtime to administering medication and providing special care for senior pets, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’m here to give your pet the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you're away. As a part-time nursing student and mom of two, I’ve learned how to balance a busy schedule with care and attention to detail. qualities that I also bring to pet care. I work relief shifts as a behavioral health support specialist, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows time during the day and weekends to dedicate to animals. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring is what I do, whether it’s my own kids or someone’s beloved pet, I’m fully committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

“I was in town to visit Silver Falls SP and Sandy was the perfect sitter for Charlie. If I didn’t know better, he was sad to leave. She has a warm home and loves animals. She treated Charlie like her own and he was so happy to spend time with her. Thank you Sandy!”
“Hailey and her family were so wonderful to our Kai. They watched him while we went hiking in Silver Falls. She sent pics and updates so we knew Kai was in excellent hands. Kai was happy and relaxed when we picked him up.”
“Candace is a wonderful dog mom!! From the moment we met I knew Maizie would be in good hands. Candace is warm and nurturing but also aware of the mischief puppies can get into. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and kept me updated on Maizie’s progress. Maizie had fun meeting the other animals around the farm. We are hoping to leave her for a longer time next time. I know Maizie is looking forward to seeing Candace-mom and her new big brother playmate, Wilbur again. She had a great time!”
“Phillip is very communicative and flexible when it comes to scheduling pickup and dropping off. My puppy came back happy and tired(yay!). I will be booking again. Thanks Phillip!!!”

Pets will be returned to the care of their owner & given a summary of services provided, behavior while being serviced & any other necessary information regarding your pets experience. It is important to me to keep owners as involved & updated as possible.
About: I grew up with three dogs in my house, and many more coming in and out. I have lots of experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I got a COVID puppy in 2019, so I also have experience with training high energy pups! I truly love all animals and would love to help your family out where I can! I currently only work 3 days a week and have plenty of time in the evenings on those days. Other than that, I am free! In your home, I will follow all the rules you have in place while providing gentle, loving care for your animals! In my own home, keeping up with diet, exercise, and training is important for my pups.

About: Hello! I now host doggy and other animal boarding in my own home! Going on vacation? Wanna leave the pup with someone safe and trusted? I have a Big yard and up to two professional dog caretakers at a time 😊 Let’s talk!… I grew up on a farm and have spent 23 years loving all animals, caring for pets, farm companions, and learning how to provide each unique critter with the love they deserve. In the pictures above, you’ll find several of my beloved pets, clients, and animals I have had the fortune of meeting! I believe a passion for helping animals has made me into a highly empathetic individual who has a keen eye for understanding details in animals, allowing me to provide care that puts your pet first. I try to go beyond the basic necessities to help animals feel safe, happy, enriched, and loved, in your absence. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, kittens and seniors. I display an intermediate level of training, including how to reinforce actions that benefit your companion, as well as steer away/de-escalate unwanted habits. I will always advocate for your pet, especially around other animals. Ample cuddles as well! Aside from cats and dogs, I especially enjoy caring for horses (feel free to inquire separately!), rodents, reptiles, chickens, and more. Available almost everyday/nights and open to all inquiries. Located in Eugene, Salem, and Portland. Questions? Shoot me a message! Communication is highly important to me and all messages will be responded to as quickly as I can. I strive to spend most of my days caring for pets and my doggy (or cat/other!) most of all. I provide personalized and loving care from Portland, or in your home, anywhere from Salem To Eugene! Shoot me a message anytime and I will reply promptly. Whether your fur baby is in my home or yours, overnights or walking, I ensure utmost respect, cleanliness, privacy, and respect. I will follow your schedule, directions and pet needs with great care for detail. Communication is highly important to me and all phone calls and messages will be responded to quickly. For all clients, I will setup a time for us to meet in person to get to know each other better, and for your pet to get to know me in a familiar environment prior to the first day of care!
About: I'm a dependable and hard worker who's had dogs and cats my whole life, and have been pet/house sitting off and on since I was an early teenager. I love taking dogs for runs or walks with me and getting the chance to exercise them, or just playing with them in the house. I have plenty of experience with older dogs who need medication and various special care needs, dogs who have recently had operations, as well as with puppies making messes. I also have cared for kittens and older cats who need play time or lots of love. I'm happy to give daily updates on your pets; I think they are just as cute as you do! I've taken care of houses, plants, and pets for up to three month periods, communicating with the owners the whole time. I will love and care for your pets just like you do! I currently work from home and have a completely flexible schedule, so I can fit your pets' care needs in however works best for them. I have lots of experience with very high energy working dogs, German Shepherds, who needed to be kenneled and fed in particular ways, as well as experience with caring for up to six pets at a time, making sure they're all fed and getting along at dinner or play times.
“I recently got a puppy and booked an hour with Erica as part of his socialization process, to get him used to spending time with strangers. Erica and her daughter did an amazing job and I could tell Raider warmed up to both of them right away and felt very comfortable. It’s SO important for young puppies (especially giant breeds) to have positive experiences with new people. Thanks for helping to make sure I don’t wind up with a 120lb dog that’s afraid of people 🤣🖤Very much appreciated! 100% recommend”

I currently work night three night out of seven day week and love taking pets for walks i have the time and love animals i have one of my own I have a fenced in yard with one smaller dog that can use a fur bear friend as well as crate your dog if you would prefer
About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).

“I rebooked Malissa and was not disappointed. I rebooked her for walks not a housesitting this time and I found my dog happy. She also sent me pictures and was on time for the walks. I trust her completely and already rebooked her for the end of July housesitting.”

“I'm so glad we met Shelby through Rover. She made us feel so comfortable leaving our senior dog for the night. She was communicative, sent pics, and several updates throughout our dog's stay. We appreciate the love she gave our girl and highly recommend her!”
“If you need a sitter for your pet don't look for anyone else but Jade!! She made us feel at ease with our meet and greet and is very professional. We were nervous about leaving Maisie with someone but she started sending pictures and videos almost immediately and put us right at ease. We didn't worry the whole time we were gone. Jade is our go to sitter for Maisie from now on!!!!!”
“Gayle was AMAZING with my fur babies. She was very good at communicating and giving updates and photos during their stay. My babies opened up so much while spending time with her and Sitka. She was very flexible and was able to keep them for an extra night when my plans changed last minute. We are very grateful to her for taking such good care of our pups and will gladly book with her again ?”
“My dog has a great time with Bradley. He seemed very happy and got plenty of attention and activity. Bradley wa great in communication, genuine affection for pups. I’d definitely look to Bradley in the future for dog sitting.”
“Arielle was amazing!!! This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone other than family! She made us feel so at ease & remained in contact with us throughout his stay! She sent us pictures so we could see how he was doing & it looked like he was on vacation!!! She accepted him last minute & he came home so content & exhausted from his playtime! We have definitely found Opi’s home away from home!!! If you’re looking for an awesome sitter for your fur baby, look no further!!!”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Christina was easy to work with, very responsive and kept us updated the entire time she watched our cat, Gus! I would highly recommend and will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“Karlie was very flexible and easy to plan with. Her house is very dog friendly and her pup, Dresden, is a great playmate! Our dog didn’t care when we left at drop off because she was already having so much fun.”
“Jordan is seriously a dog whisperer. His energy and confidence is God send. My dog Cedar can be reactive, barking, jumping, even nipping when meeting people but with Jordan, it was like a completely different dog. Calm, relaxed, and instantly comfortable. I was in total shock. Even around another dog (which normally worries me), Cedar was in dog heaven. No issues at all. I went in nervous and left totally at ease. THANK YOU Jordan for making my vacation that much better. If you’ve got a challenging dog, Jordan is your guy, Just go with Jordan.”
“Best decision ever! We were nervous about leaving our two dogs with someone we did not know but with one getting older we didn’t want them to be in a kennel and not have interaction with others. We were gone over a week to Hawaii and I received regular updates and pictures. I could tell they were well cared for and having a great time. It was a good peace of mind being so far away. When we got home we could tell the dogs were happy and had a blast meeting their new friends. We love Nicole and we will definitely do this again next time.”
“Allison and her family were wonderful! We got morning and evening updates each day.🐾 It was evident our dogs were well cared for while we were away. We have a heeler who can have a hard time adjusting to new environments but Allison knew exactly how to handle her. Allison was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was a wonderful experience and we hope to use her again in the near future! 🐶”
“Kathrine is an AMAZING sitter! I went out of town for 5 days and left my pup with her at her home. I immediately felt comfortable leaving her there when I dropped her off. She sent pics, videos, and updated me on all things (eating, pooping, etc.). Her dog, Ophelia, was the sweetest companion and I could tell her and my dog were besties from the pics she sent! They went on multiple walks a day, and even a weekend adventure! I will definitely be using Kathrine again in the future!”
“My beagle stayed with Madlin for 4 days, had an issue with another arrangement while I was out of town and Madlin was able to handle everything (picked up my dog and helped both my beagle's stress and my own with great communication). She was a life saver for me and my dog loved her, would recommend her to anyone in the Salem area.”
“Kayla took fantastic care of our pet Pepper. Pepper was happy and had eased quickly into the routine at Kayla’s with her pet family. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need someone to look after our dog.”
