“My first time leaving my pet overnight with someone. Amy took good care of her, walked her, and sent me an update photo for the day that she stayed there. Thanks, Amy!!”
“What a wonderful experience! From drop off to pick up Garrett and Monica were welcoming and warm to our pups. They sent tons of photos throughout the stay and our pups were tired and happy when we picked them up. Highly recommended! We will be using them again for sure!”
“I HIGHLY recommend Alicia. I was so nervous to leave our babies… at first. She put me at ease when we met her, I feel like we left them with a friend who loved on them like we do. She kept us updated, but was also very responsive when I checked on them too. Her amazing care of our babies allowed us to thoroughly enjoy our vacation. We would definitely use her services agaiin. ♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️⭐️ ♥️⭐️”
“Elizabeth was really kind and understanding! Made sure my cats were comfortable, and was very patient and accommodating when I had to book extra days. Thank you so much to you and your family!”
“Ruth was just what I was looking for! Difficult to leave a cherished pet - I needed to be away for 5 nights and hesitant to try Rover. However couldn’t have been happier with her daily photos, comments and attention to my little white Maltipoo, Gracie! Lovely home and setting- a long drive to Grants Pass but SO happy with the care! I will use Ruth again, for sure!!!”
“Miss Daniela is incredibly sweet. She has cared for our friendly giant twice now. He gets spoiled and all the love he could need while we are gone. He’s also been on medications and she has had no problem giving him his medications. We highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Our Maizy stayed with Allyse and her dog Cooper for a holiday weekend. They went on a hike and the two dogs played well once Maizy got settled in. Allyse knows dogs and she asked all the right questions when we met, which put me right at ease. She even asked if Maizy is allowed on the bed, which she is. She sleeps at our feet each night. Allyse states this in her description that she allows this and it's one of the reasons we chose her. Thanks, Allyse, for taking good care of our Maizy!”
“Aimee and Andrew have a huge fenced yard, a playful Doodle and 2 great kids that made me feel like Jackson was visiting friends, rather than just being boarded. I really appreciated daily updates and cute photos that let me know my Jackson was having a great time. Highly recommend to anyone needing a dog loving family setting for their dog when they travel.”
“Dorothea and Richard took wonderful care of my elder dog. Their place is great for dogs and their dogs are very friendly. I will be asking them to take care of my dog again.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Diana clearly took great care of Bella. We were away for 6 days and although Bella was excited we were back she came home the happiest she's ever been after any stay with a sitter. No moping or depressed behavior. Will definitely use Diana 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: Hello! My name is Samantha and I am 26 years old. I joined rover to earn some extra money while spending some time with furry (or non furry) friends. I have volunteered at local shelters and have watched the animals of my family and friends since I was about 10 years old. I treat each and every animal with the love, care, and respect that they deserve. I am very compassionate and take the time to tend to one’s animals as if they were my own. My rates are flexible depending on the animal(s), and the situation. I am able to flex my schedule around your needs! I work full time but I am able to work remotely if needed and can take breaks throughout the day if necessary. I often do not watch animals in my home due to my 5 fur babes. However, depending on the situation, and the animal, a short stay in my home may be an option. Hopefully I can be your next pet or house sitter. I have recommendations upon request. I am looking forward to speaking with you soon!!
About: I have always loved animals. Had dogs and cats growing up. Would always want to take the stray home or help the wounded ones. Over the years my family and I have had numerous dogs, rats, hamsters, cats fish goats and chickens I work full time but have time before and after work to feed, walk, play or just sit and hang out with your animals. I can also come and visit during my lunch breaks. I'm half to stay overnight in your home or have your fur baby stay with me! I have a ½ acre that is completely fenced out in the country. lots of room for your dog to run. I can also stay at your home if that's where your animals are most comfortable. I will make sure they are fed and always have water available. I want your dog to feel like they are at home and safe
“What a lucky find!! Very nice family & Bella liked having a little girl for her new friend. Danijela sent pictures & notes to keep us updated, since Bella has separation issues. So nice to have someone that Bella will know next time I’m visiting in Medford.”
About: Hello! My preferred name is Aspen but I also go by Maia. I am a care provider in all walks of my life. I have a strong nurturing personality and caring for animals and people is something I find very fulfilling. I have worked as a caregiver for 3 years and an animal lover for 20 years. I have had dogs, cat, lizards, and rats that have lived full happy lives in my care. I also work on a farm at the moment where I care for 21 sheep and 32 cows. I take great pride in caring for these animals. I have a great need to feel fulfillment in my everyday life and I feel that taking on the responsibility to provide your animals with such love will be a gift for you and your lifestyle as well as mine. I currently work four days out of the week so that gives me lots of free time for animal boarding and walks on my weekends. I’m an active person who loves to be outside and I take walks everyday. It would be lovely to have some accompaniment on those walks through town and the surrounding areas. I live in a tiny house on an expansive 30 acre farm in Williams OR. I have more than enough space to host an animal over night or for a couple days. I am very present and I always am cautious of what’s happening outside and inside my home. There is enough space for your pup to be in their crate if that’s what you desire. I also am only available to host one dog or cat at a time to ensure I give your animal my undivided attention and make sure I am present for their needs.

“Jennifer has been wonderful with Winnie. She walks and plays with her during her drop in times and Winnie gets a break from the crate. I feel comfortable knowing she is in good hands. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Josh was the perfect fit for Lil Richard. Lil Richard was living on the streets and showed up at my door. He’s somewhat timid but very loving. Josh gave him lots of attention which eased my kitties anxiety at being stuck inside while I was away. Josh communicated very well, I want to be contacted for any little thing and Josh heard me when I said that. Josh made good decisions and showed me Lil Richard his priority. I’ll be using him again.”
“We were nervous about leaving out cats with someone we didn't know, but throughout every step of the process, Olivia was courteous, friendly, and explained the process. She cared very well for our cats and we will definitely use her again!”
“Kailee is the best. She stayed at our house and took care of our three cat. Two who take a pill twice a day. She sent photos and updates. We had a late flight and Kalie left the lights on for us and collected the mail without us asking. We highly recommend her. She is awesome!”

“Brandy responded quickly with concerns. Brandy let me know when she was there caring for my cat, Harvey and when she left. However, upon returning home the litter box had not been cleaned for a few days and the larger water bowl was a bit dirty. My other cat, Amelia passed away naturally before Brandy was scheduled to attend to her needs. I appreciate she attempted to get a reduce rate since she was only caring for one cat, Harvey. I have to say her work was good. It was comforting knowing my one cat was being taken care of since my other cat died just prior to her scheduled time. Also, Harvey is hard to spend time with since he is extremely shy. I did appreciate the pictures taken.”
“Alicia was amazing with my cat, Jiji! I was out of town, so my mom dropped her off and picked her up from Alicia’s. It was a hectic time with the holidays, and we ended up having to change both the drop-off and pick-up times at the last minute. Alicia was so gracious in accommodating our last minute changes. She also sent picture updates of Jiji! She came back happy, safe, and sound. Thank you so much, Alicia!”

“Amy accommodated us last minute when we came to Grants Pass and realized the event we were attending didn’t allow dogs. She was flexible and easy to communicate with. Ranger was well cared for and happy. Thank you Amy!!”

“Kahlúa was so spoiled here. Aimee and Andrew welcomed her into the family! Thank you so so much! We are so grateful to find incredible care last minute, they went the extra mile. We look forward to having this sweet family care for our fur baby in the future. 💛”
“What a wonderful experience! Ruth really goes above and beyond. I couldn't be more pleased. She made sure to ask many questions and wanted to reinforce my pups training as a service dog by using the same words and hands signals I do at home. She kept me updated and sent pictures of him running with her sweet girl doggos and sitting happily at her feet. He was clearly happy and comfortable at her home. He was also asleep before we got home! My heart is so happy to have found this gem. I'm so impressed with Ruth's care that I'm going to book regular daycare visits for my guy to go there and have fun with his new friends even if I don't have any appointments! I honestly can't say enough about her. Totally blessed.”

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.

“Kaelin was amazing with our 10 week puppy Midnight!! Midnight is shy around new people but warmed up to Kaelin quickly and had the best time playing and hanging out with her all day, I know that we’ll be booking her again as soon as we can especially since she sent pictures and updates to us that really helped our anxiety with leaving her for the first time!!”

Since I have no other commitments, I am able to spend as much time as needed with the dogs and treat every dog like it’s my own. I don’t mind having to make special meals for dogs, going on walks, or staying full time at your house! I have experience with dogs with anxiety under circumstances such as storms and fireworks and I am also good with high energy dogs. I enjoy meeting with the dogs before booking so reach out! I do not have any other jobs currently so I am able to give my full attention to your pets! I already take walks on my own so having a dog join me would be beneficial as well. I do not have pets of my own so it’s easy for me to give full love and attention to other peoples pets like the pet I never had.
About: I've had pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to small mammals, reptiles, and birds. Growing up in a miniature menagerie taught me responsibility and how to properly care for animals and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Reading animal behavior and connecting with each pet's personality is second nature to me. Whether it's maintaining your pet's familiar routine, providing engaging playtime, or offering companionship, I prioritize making your pets feel secure and loved in your absence. I structure my daily and weekly routine around pet care, ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given attention. Each day, I set aside time for feeding, cleaning up after them, and making sure they have companionship. Weekly, I restock supplies and adjust my schedule as needed to meet their needs. I prioritize each pet’s comfort and personality, letting them set the pace for interactions. When entering a space, I allow the pet to approach me first and get down to their eye level to establish trust. I respect a cat’s independence and let them engage on their terms. When walking dogs, I exercise patience, allowing them to sniff and explore at their own pace, as I’ve learned this helps build trust and confidence. My approach ensures that every pet feels safe, respected, and cared for.
“Charlotte did a great job. Arrived on time and managed to calm down my over rambunctious dogs. Scarlett came back a very happy and tired dog. Thank you so much. I do not need any more walks at the moment but will be happy to get her again next time my daughter leaves them with me.”
About: We had animals in our house my entire life and I can't be without one. Currently, I have a Golden named, Luna and a black cat named Skippy. Growing up we had ducks, pigmy goats, dogs, cats and cockatoos. I love all animals. I have experience with puppies and senior care too. I look forward to sitting for you! I have a lot of availability. I currently work part-time. I'm here to walk/hike, play, feed, pet and whatever else you might need for your animals! I will care for your pets in whatever capacity they need. My dog and cat are indoor / outdoor. We live on the river and we go outside often. We play and cuddle.
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, fish, and turtles for years! I have a cat of my own, and my family has always had multiple dogs I care for. I love all animals! I personally take care of my pet every day with ensuring her food and waste is maintained, so these routines are familiar to me. I have lived with dogs my entire life, with and without fences, so I have walked dogs of all sizes and in all weather. I have experience with crate trained dogs, outside cats, outside dogs, picky eaters, weak bladders, elderly animals, puppies, kittens, and more! I care for elderly animals currently along with a kitten. Cleaning up accidents is no issue for me!
About: I was born into a house with 9 dogs. My mother has devoted her life to animal rescue and I have been helping and volunteering since I was 6. I absolutely adore animals and would love to look after yours! I’ve volunteered at numerous animal shelters at different places I’ve lived in the past and I have helped many different personalities of dogs and cats. I currently am working part-time, so I have a lot of time to spend with the babies! My schedule is flexible, so I should be able to accommodate any times or days you would need! I have been around animals my whole life and am good at being intuitive with their needs. If they are snuggle bugs, I’ll snuggle up with them! If they need play or to be left alone, I’ll act accordingly.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love playing with and getting to know them. I have worked with a couple of friends in high school dog sitting for family friends and relatives and have enjoyed every second I spend with their pets. I recognize and take into consideration the age, physical abilities, and daily habits of the pets I take care of and base my care and activities around those. I am currently living up in Portland working for a state campaign but I will occasionally be traveling down to my other home in Grants Pass for jobs and building projects for my family . I greet every pet I meet with respect, care, and love and will calmly approach any new animal I meet with the intention of building trust with that animal and letting them know I can take care of them and love them and that they can trust me.
About: Hello! My name is Samantha and I am 26 years old. I joined rover to earn some extra money while spending some time with furry (or non furry) friends. I have volunteered at local shelters and have watched the animals of my family and friends since I was about 10 years old. I treat each and every animal with the love, care, and respect that they deserve. I am very compassionate and take the time to tend to one’s animals as if they were my own. My rates are flexible depending on the animal(s), and the situation. I am able to flex my schedule around your needs! I work full time but I am able to work remotely if needed and can take breaks throughout the day if necessary. I often do not watch animals in my home due to my 5 fur babes. However, depending on the situation, and the animal, a short stay in my home may be an option. Hopefully I can be your next pet or house sitter. I have recommendations upon request. I am looking forward to speaking with you soon!!

“My first time leaving my pet overnight with someone. Amy took good care of her, walked her, and sent me an update photo for the day that she stayed there. Thanks, Amy!!”
“What a wonderful experience! From drop off to pick up Garrett and Monica were welcoming and warm to our pups. They sent tons of photos throughout the stay and our pups were tired and happy when we picked them up. Highly recommended! We will be using them again for sure!”
“I HIGHLY recommend Alicia. I was so nervous to leave our babies… at first. She put me at ease when we met her, I feel like we left them with a friend who loved on them like we do. She kept us updated, but was also very responsive when I checked on them too. Her amazing care of our babies allowed us to thoroughly enjoy our vacation. We would definitely use her services agaiin. ♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️⭐️ ♥️⭐️”
“Elizabeth was really kind and understanding! Made sure my cats were comfortable, and was very patient and accommodating when I had to book extra days. Thank you so much to you and your family!”
“Ruth was just what I was looking for! Difficult to leave a cherished pet - I needed to be away for 5 nights and hesitant to try Rover. However couldn’t have been happier with her daily photos, comments and attention to my little white Maltipoo, Gracie! Lovely home and setting- a long drive to Grants Pass but SO happy with the care! I will use Ruth again, for sure!!!”
“Miss Daniela is incredibly sweet. She has cared for our friendly giant twice now. He gets spoiled and all the love he could need while we are gone. He’s also been on medications and she has had no problem giving him his medications. We highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Our Maizy stayed with Allyse and her dog Cooper for a holiday weekend. They went on a hike and the two dogs played well once Maizy got settled in. Allyse knows dogs and she asked all the right questions when we met, which put me right at ease. She even asked if Maizy is allowed on the bed, which she is. She sleeps at our feet each night. Allyse states this in her description that she allows this and it's one of the reasons we chose her. Thanks, Allyse, for taking good care of our Maizy!”
“Aimee and Andrew have a huge fenced yard, a playful Doodle and 2 great kids that made me feel like Jackson was visiting friends, rather than just being boarded. I really appreciated daily updates and cute photos that let me know my Jackson was having a great time. Highly recommend to anyone needing a dog loving family setting for their dog when they travel.”
“Dorothea and Richard took wonderful care of my elder dog. Their place is great for dogs and their dogs are very friendly. I will be asking them to take care of my dog again.”
“Diana clearly took great care of Bella. We were away for 6 days and although Bella was excited we were back she came home the happiest she's ever been after any stay with a sitter. No moping or depressed behavior. Will definitely use Diana 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 always loved animals. Had dogs and cats growing up. Would always want to take the stray home or help the wounded ones. Over the years my family and I have had numerous dogs, rats, hamsters, cats fish goats and chickens I work full time but have time before and after work to feed, walk, play or just sit and hang out with your animals. I can also come and visit during my lunch breaks. I'm half to stay overnight in your home or have your fur baby stay with me! I have a ½ acre that is completely fenced out in the country. lots of room for your dog to run. I can also stay at your home if that's where your animals are most comfortable. I will make sure they are fed and always have water available. I want your dog to feel like they are at home and safe
“What a lucky find!! Very nice family & Bella liked having a little girl for her new friend. Danijela sent pictures & notes to keep us updated, since Bella has separation issues. So nice to have someone that Bella will know next time I’m visiting in Medford.”
About: Hello! My preferred name is Aspen but I also go by Maia. I am a care provider in all walks of my life. I have a strong nurturing personality and caring for animals and people is something I find very fulfilling. I have worked as a caregiver for 3 years and an animal lover for 20 years. I have had dogs, cat, lizards, and rats that have lived full happy lives in my care. I also work on a farm at the moment where I care for 21 sheep and 32 cows. I take great pride in caring for these animals. I have a great need to feel fulfillment in my everyday life and I feel that taking on the responsibility to provide your animals with such love will be a gift for you and your lifestyle as well as mine. I currently work four days out of the week so that gives me lots of free time for animal boarding and walks on my weekends. I’m an active person who loves to be outside and I take walks everyday. It would be lovely to have some accompaniment on those walks through town and the surrounding areas. I live in a tiny house on an expansive 30 acre farm in Williams OR. I have more than enough space to host an animal over night or for a couple days. I am very present and I always am cautious of what’s happening outside and inside my home. There is enough space for your pup to be in their crate if that’s what you desire. I also am only available to host one dog or cat at a time to ensure I give your animal my undivided attention and make sure I am present for their needs.
“Mattie was and is an excellent choice to help watch over your furry friends. I appreciated the communication and flexibility and quick responses. Thank you so much Mattie for taking care of my pup. He clearly had an excellent time!”
“Review is for cat boarding. That sounds like a sport but you get the idea - my cats stayed with Kaelin, who had generous availability on short term notice. 2 cats, 6 nights, 0 problems. Kaelin is an absolute gem. Pre-stay she held a call to learn the specific needs of my cats and throughout their stay she picked up on components of their personalities I didn't even think to share. One of my girls is considerably shyer than the other, but Kaelin made consistent and ultimately successful efforts to engage each cat in a manner comfortable for them. Her patience calmed my shyer cat and her energy and thoughtfulness invigorated my more excitable/curious cat - she picked up on beneficial ways to interact with each of them that could not have been covered alone by what I shared with her pre-stay. Kaelin is clearly someone who has a profound understanding of and deep appreciation for animals, and she takes seriously how much they mean to us, her customers. Kaelin paid incredible attention to detail, was able to tailor every aspect of their stay in ways beyond what I requested, and she provided consistent updates with photos and videos of the two, often focusing on activities she intuited that I would be wondering about (How is shy Summer utilizing the space and responding to interaction? How is playful Autumn being allowed to explore and see outside? etc.). Through the way she was engaging with my girls and seeing how they, in turn, responded to her, it is so clear that Kaelin approaches her work with immense passion and care. It put me at ease throughout my entire trip, and it was clearly an excellent experience for my girls as well. Cannot recommend highly enough, will absolutely be a return customer.”
