“Kris was very communicative- providing regular photos and updates during the boarding. This was the best experience we have had boarding our pets. Definitely recommend!”
“Our uneasiness and worries about leaving our newly adopted Golden Retriever quickly vanished after meeting Jean. While away in Costa Rica, Jean’s timely photos, videos, and texts assured us that our beloved Toby was well taken care of. Honoring her promise to keep in touch daily, we were able to see him playing, eating, and sleeping. This heightened our confidence that he was happy and content! Thank you, Jean, from the depths of our hearts for taking such wonderful care of Toby while we were away. We highly recommend Jean’s care to anyone looking for a dog sitter! You will not regret your decision. This I promise. Della & John”
“Was delighted with the service we received... I could tell that my daughter's cat, Luna, had seriously enjoyed her 4 nights with Susie and her daughter when I picked her up and we all loved receiving photos from Susie on what I think was a daily basis whilst Luna was with her. No hesitation in giving Susie a 5-star rating - I highly recommend her!”
“Marybeth and family took good care of our dog Toby for a week. I believe Toby had as good a vacation as we did! He got to play with Zoey and keep an eye on the cats. He spent time relaxing on the back deck watching the chickens. Working out the details with Marybeth was easy and she's quick to respond. She's obviously good with animals.”
“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Jamie and Nicole took very good care of our dog and kept us posted with many happy photos. Our dog seemed to miss Jamie and Nicole the first night we took him home. We highly recommend them!”
“Sharon is amazing. She sent me pictures everyday. Clara is a 8 pound Havanese and very spoiled. Sharon is a a new trusting friend if Clara’s. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you Sharon for loving our little girl.???”
“Veronica is very sweet. She was very nice to my dog. Her 2 dogs are very friendly and seems like my dog had a great time at Veronica’s house. I will ask her again. I do strongly recommend her to all dog owners.”
“Amanda and Jaime took fantastic care of my dog and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. My dog is still a puppy and this was his first time away from us for an extended period of time, but the boarder did her best to ensure he felt safe and tried to ease his anxiety as much as possible. I will definitely use Amanda and Jamie for my future boarding needs!”
“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”
“noemi was so great with my dog while i was away! she really understood how to take care of a senior dog, was flexible about letting him go out, sent many pictures of him while i was away; and he seemed very calm and content when i went to go pick him up after my trip. i highly recommend her!”
“This was Ziggys first time staying with Nadine and he was so excited and ran up the stairs to her front door. He must have remembered Nadine and her fur babies from our meet and greet. Ziggy seemed so happy after his weekend with Nadine. Her backyard is amazing. We’ll definitely book again!”
“She did an amazing job with our dog. Our dog can be really fussy and linda was super patient with her. Linda is also extremely competent communicative and always responds quickly. She provides detailed updates and lots of pictures everyday which was so nice when we were gone. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Laura was absolutely amazing!! It was very clear that she treated my dogs with much love and care. She sent regular check-ins with pictures. I felt very relieved to know they were being treated so well!”
“Bonnie was very sweet and took such great care of William for us while we went away for the night! She is very friendly, sends updates, took him on his daily walks & even got in a bonus play date! So thankful to be able to go away for the weekend and not have to worry too much about leaving William behind. Would highly recommend!”
“Chester clearly loves staying here. He runs into Sandy's arms and doesn't look back (well, not very much.) He stayed two weeks this time and, by all appearances, thrived. ”
“Hannah was a great communicator and sent us updates and pictures daily. She responds very quickly and answered all our questions so well. Our dog had a wonderful time at her place. We will look to booking with Hannah in the future.”
“Keelan and his wife were so wonderful to my baby boy Domino. They were communicative and flexible with my return from the Gorge Ampitheatre (you never know how much traffic there will be) they sent pics multiple times a day and based on the cuddles I saw in the photos I can tell Domino made himself at home with them and their two cute pups, Loki and Minty. I would absolutely recommend them and hope to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Mara was great! She was very communicative and took excellent care of our 2 pups. They enjoyed long walks and plenty of snuggles. It was our first time boarding them and we’re happy with their stay. We’ll be back!”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our girl with anyone so we were very nervous on how it would go! Nancy was so reassuring that Paisley would do well. She sent us pictures to keep us updated on how she was doing. Paisley came home one happy girl! We are so thankful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her!! We will definitely use her in the future!”

About: My cat Tom was my first that I had after moving from my parents. I adopted her from the humane society and had her for 10 years. For the last couple years of her life she was diabetic and needed insulin shots 2x per day.
“Kaylee was amazing! She spent time with our kitties, played with them, fed them, and even gave them treats that her cat didn’t love. She was a clear communicator and reliable! We’d have her watch our cats any time!”
“Summer did an excellent job in making sure Chunk was happy and well cared for. Chunk can be shy with new people and she took it slow and made sure he knew she was there when he was ready! We would definitely book with her again.”
“Shianne was on time, efficient and I felt very comfortable having her in my home. Now, if my 2 cats would have come out it might have been a lot more fun for her. She never got to see them because they hid, but she reported back every day that they ate their food and did their business! Highly recommend Shianne! Thank you!”
“maya is absolutely wonderful! she jumped in to help in a time crunch and provided outstanding care. i could tell that maya is a fun, attentive, and loving caretaker. i appreciate her reliability and great photos/notes!”
“ChristyLynn, did a great job! She always sent me updates and pictures with each visit. Felt relt really secure with her in taking care of my cats during visits. Totally recommend her with cat care.”
“Kathy did a fantastic job watching our cat, Lilly. She gave descriptive check-in notes which were very comforting while we were away. Lilly normally gets quite lonely while we are gone and she seemed very content when we returned!”
“Erin was wonderful. My cats loved her. The reports and photos she sent to me were so reassuring. I would invite her back anytime. She went above and beyond in her visits.”
“Megan did a fabulous job caring for my apartment and my anxious cats while I was away for a week. I recommend their services and will definitely be using them in the future!”

“Thank you so much Katie for caring for my fur babies in short notice and during a holiday season!! Thank you again for being there for them! I look forward to having your assistance again in the future!”
“I’ve used Karly now three times as my cat-sitter while away to take care of my two cats, and just recently, for two weeks while out of the country. She’s great!! She makes sure my two babies are well taken care of - she’s gotten to know both of their personalities and tends to both of their needs (one’s playfulness and the other’s snuggles/pets)! She goes above and beyond and also considers me and the house while gone out of the country (by taking out the trash on trash day for example). She’s also a great communicator and I feel at ease trusting her to take care of both my cats and my home while away!”
About: I am a life-long cat lover. I had cats since I was old enough to remember and have always been smitten by their playful and curious nature, stunning looks, and most of all: their “cat-itude”. I started cat sitting part -time in 2006 for cats that were adopted from the Berkeley Humane Society, where I was the manager of the cat program. In 2011, I decided to take the plunge and pursue cat sitting as a full-time career. I consider myself a “kitty connoisseur” of sorts. I have two rescue cats of my own that I completely adore. The things I value most in a cat sitter for my own cats, I strive to provide for my clients’ companions. I am extremely reliable, responsible, and trustworthy. I understand that all cats have unique personalities, and I am very detail- oriented, so as to make your cat very happy when I am caring for them. Whether your cat is into playing, cuddling on a warm lap, being brushed, or just sleeping the whole time, I am there to cater to their every whim. I believe strongly in following the cat’s daily routine, so as to minimize stress, loneliness, and anxiety of their guardian being away. While most petsitting businesses focus primarily on dogs, I feel it's essential to give cats the same focus. Cats and dogs are very different types of animals and respond differently to a "cat person" or a "dog person." While I do love dogs, cats are the distinguishing feature between my business and other petsitting businesses.

“Hannah and Blake were excellent. They are very friendly, kind, and responsive. My 2-year-old GSD spent her first day with them, and came back happy playing with other dogs. I received many photos and video. I will definitely book again.”
“Kris is always knowledgeable flexible and personable. He has a great love for dogs and it shows his daughter and he even play piano for the dogs..My babies are always well taken care of and I have no worries that they are always in good hands. Thank you Kris! Youre the best”

“Tommy was great with Lennox! It didn't take long for the two to like each other :) I had a great experience with scheduling, availability, and updates throughout the day. You can tell that Tommy has lots of experience with all kinds of dogs and can quickly adjust to whatever your dog needs. He took Lennox on his walks what our little Aussie enjoyed a lot. We will be back for sure :)”
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”
“When Dexter developed a medical condition while I was away, Maggie handled it beautifully, giving Dexter the care he needed and keeping me apprised of the situation even though I had limited cell coverage for a while. Thank you Maggie!”
“Awesome experience! Susie was super quick to respond and very flexible with my timing. She sent pictures with updates and kept me informed while I was gone. My dog was happy and tired when I picked him up after the day.”
“Awesome as always! Mikka gets excited every Tuesday to get her snuggles and playtime for the day. I live in the neighborhood and can’t walk within 2 blocks without her pulling towards their house. It’s definitely her happy place, so much so that we come to the private field/doggy oasis to play on other days too! She’s looking forward to her three night stay later this week too. Thank you, Allen!”
“Bridgitte is always great with our little rescue dog. We always get pictures of them out taking walks, and she takes our dog out to public places like restaurants which is good for her socialization. Bridgitte is super friendly and personable, and couldn't be easier to work with.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I grew up in an animal loving family and as a mother of two I have passed the love for dogs, particularly, down to my own kids. We know that our pets are family members and understand that their well-being, happiness, and comfort is of utmost importance! I am the go to dog sitter for friends and family. I have cared for everything from puppies to seniors. Our family is a safe haven for your dog and you can rest assured that they are getting the attention, care, and respect they individually need. I work from home. My rescue dog is by my side all day. He’s the sweetest guy who gets along with any and all dogs. Any age, breed, or gender is welcome. The pups have attentive attention, full reign of our cozy home with doggy door, ample fenced backyard, and friendly neighborhood to walk, if desired! Dogs like their routine and I am understanding of adhering to any restrictions or schedules needed.
“Miss Pickles and Ginger had a wonderful day with Amber. They must have played hard because as soon as we picked them up and got them in the car, they fell sound asleep. Amber was very easy to communicate with and fast with her responses during the scheduling process. We will definitely use Amber again in the future!”
“Amy, Eric, and Finley made our girl Riley feel like part of the family! She got a great long walk and then got to relax and snuggle for the rest of the evening. They paid close attention to her and accommodated her personality, quirks, and even a few nervous farts 😅 We really appreciate it!”
“This was my first time leaving Roo with someone all day and I instantly felt like I could trust Margaret! Roo came home happy and exhausted, she didn't even want to leave Margarets porch when I came to pick her up. The communication was great and I received photos/videos throughout the day and updates on how were going. This put me at ease and knowing that Roo was in great hands. Will definitely book again!”
“Lisa & Brian are super nice, friendly people who kept our 3 pups for the day while we did some sightseeing on our way through Portland. They had great communication with us throughout the entire time, sent pics of the pups enjoying their yard and home. I would definitely use them again if I ever need a puppy daycare in Portland!”
“In my first time connecting with Damon, he made me feel like we have been working together for a while now. He provided great feedback, photos and made me feel very comfortable on switching sitters. I would recommend Damon to anyone.”
“Catherine is super knowledgeable about pups (and even did extra research on our puppy’s breed). Poppy felt comfortable at the meet and greet and seemed to fit right in with Jack and Daisy. She had a great time and I felt confident that she was well cared for.”
“Peter and his family clearly love dogs! They were super responsive and sent photos throughout the day. Charlie loved playing with their dogs and we will absolutely be booking again! Highly recommend!”
“Veronica took excellent care of our 13.5 year old Penny Lane. She took her on a walk with her pups and sent multiple photos throughout the day which we so appreciated. Veronica is a conscientious person who understands dog behavior. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Veronica to look after Penny Lane again in the future. Thank you, Veronica!”
“Hi, We just had our sweet girl, Annie, stay with Allison for several hours. My husband found her cleaned up, seemingly secure, contented and nicely tired (I think the dogs will be good friends). We’d love to connect again and will let Rover know soon. Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for pets of many different breeds, sizes, personalities, and behavioral needs. Being a lifelong pet owner has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every animal is different. I currently share my home with Pigeon, my 8-year-old rescue, who has given me even more appreciation for the patience and trust that can be especially important with rescue animals. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual routine and personality, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care, attention, and respect I give my own. Building relationships with animals is an incredibly rewarding experience and something I truly cherish. I am currently a student at Oregon State University pursuing a Botany degree. All of my classes are virtual, so I am extremely flexible with my schedule and availability. I’m a big believer in meeting pets where they’re at. Some want to play and explore, some want nonstop attention, and others just need a little patience and space to warm up. I’ll get to know your pet’s personality and routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Walks, playtime, belly rubs, quiet company—I’m happy to provide whatever makes them feel most at home!
About: I offer dog walks, drop-in visits and house sitting services. I have 4+ years of experience walking and caring for dogs, as well as 5+ years of experience caring for indoor cats. I’m also an experienced dog trainer who specializes in training herding breeds. I’m working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I’m currently available any day of the week, afternoons or evenings. I will care for your pet exactly as instructed, including walks/food/water/grooming etc. and I won’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! I will care for your pet as if it’s my own :)
“Shianne is an exceptional dog walker! She's incredibly dependable, flexible, and has fantastic communication. She's also wonderfully sweet with our two corgis, and always makes sure they get a great workout. Our Lulu, who is obsessed with greeting people on her walks, especially loves her time with Shianne. She's my go-to person for our pups!”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats and rabbits I’ve always truly loved animals and spending time with them, taking care of them, giving them all the love and attention they need/deserve. Mainly throughout the years I’ve taken care of cats and I have dogsitting experience with pets owned by friends and family for about a few years. I love cats a lot and I end up having a special bond with every one I meet. I love dogs too, I believe every dog has a kindred spirit whether outgoing or reserved I try my best to treat them with respect and lots of love. I’m always happy to care for them especially since it’s fun to go on walks, have playtime with them. I will try my best to make sure every pet feels safe, content and happy with me I am looking forward to applying to a veterinary school program so I can one day be a veterinary technician but as of currently I am unemployed and looking for a job that will be fulfilling for me in every way. I am taking a gap year aswell to figure out my schedule for whenever I do get a job. In the meantime I spend my days relaxing at home reading or doing garden work I’d like to say I’m an observant person and very caring aswell, I tend to check in a lot even if it’s not needed and keeping track of when pets need to be let out, feed, given medication, any of the sorts im right on time. I also give pets time to adjust to me before jumping into touching them, I like to let them come to me first to make them feel comfortable if they are shy. If they are messy i don’t mind cleaning up a mess/cleaning up poop/pee. I also love to take lots pictures of pets for the people that book with me to ensure their pet is happy and in good hands
About: I’ve been a dog person for as long as I can remember and have cared for countless pets over the years. I previously had a Shepherd/Akita mix and currently share my home with two very loved Shih-Tzus, ages 12 and 6, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, energy levels and ages. I work from home, which means your dog gets plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. My home has a fully fenced backyard and a dog door for pups who enjoy having easy access to the outdoors. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will treat them like family. I’m attentive, dependable and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. And, of course, belly rubs are my love language. ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m around throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals and plenty of attention. Your pup won’t be spending long stretches of the day alone—I genuinely enjoy having some four-legged company while I work! I have a fully fenced backyard, a dog door for easy outdoor access, and two friendly Shih\-Tzus who are used to sharing their home\. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking and sleeping routines and will make sure they have a safe, comfortable place to relax\. Since I’m home throughout the day, there’s plenty of supervision, attention and, naturally, an unreasonable number of belly rubs\.
About: I have been caring for a variety of animals since I was young. I grew up with dogs and participated in 4-H for 10 years, where I worked with and showed dogs, horses, and goats at the fair. I have also provided dog and cat sitting services on and off for many years, including walking, playing with, and feeding animals. My experience includes caring for a puppy under one year old, where I helped with potty training, as well as an elderly husky who required additional care and attention. While working at a zoo, I also regularly handled a variety of animals, including snakes, turtles, birds, armadillos, and more. Overall, I have experience with animals of all ages and needs, including puppy training and senior animal care. I am currently planning to attend school part time (online classes) so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s) in between homework assignments! I have a large yard with 5-foot fencing surrounding the entire property. Depending on each pet’s needs, I enjoy taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood or on adventures such as a shorter hike or walk in a nearby park. My goal with every pet I care for is to make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and leave their time with me as a positive experience. I have a lot of experience reading pets’ individual needs and understanding what helps build trust and a positive relationship, whether that means treats, playtime, quality time, patience, or simply providing a calm and comfortable space.
About: I've taken care of dogs and farm animals since I was 10! I love all animals, especially dogs! I'm looking to fill my time by taking the best care of your fur babies.

I have a small yard and deck that are fenced off. The house is a spacious ranch with no stairs once you are on the main floor.
“Always reliable, flexible and communicative! My pups love Julie and she has been a big help with some extra care needed for one of the dogs unexpectedly diagnosed with health issues.”
“Our dog doesn't have a lot of experience with sitters, and Allison knew just how to patiently interact with her as she warmed up to her new friend. We're also going through a house move, so our pup and cats are going through lots of change. It feels good to know that Allison brings the experience we need as an animal lover.”

When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize maintaining consistency with their established routines to ensure a smooth and stress free experience. I adhere to specific instructions for feeding, administering medications, and exercise, while also offering companionship and mental stimulation as needed.

This includes tasks such as cleaning litter boxes, ensuring pet areas are organized, and leaving the home in the same condition it was found. I understand the importance of clear communication, so I provide regular updates and can easily be reached for any questions or concerns throughout the duration of the pet care service.
“Nigel and Ruby are the absolute best when it comes to taking exceptional care of my babies! I know that when they have my littles I don't have to worry about a thing. Honestly, I wish I would have found these guys sooner!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I have a medically complex cat, so I’m very experienced with giving pills and administering medications. As a pet owner myself, I understand how stressful it can feel to be away from your pet. My goal is to care for your animal with the same attention and genuine care I give my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m currently a medical student at Oregon Health & Science University completing a dedicated research year, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout much of the week. Taking dogs on walks or spending time with animals has become one of my favorite ways to step away from studying, get outside, and recharge, so I’d love for your pet to join me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I'm walking your dog or caring for your pet in your home, I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, playtime, and a positive experience. I always keep cats indoors and dogs leashed unless instructed otherwise in a secure, designated area. I also provide owners with regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: **Please note that I am only boarding dogs that are friendly with cats at this time** I've been called a dog whisperer on more than one occasion... Ever since I was a child (look through my photos for me as a kid hanging out with my pets!), I've always been around animals. I currently live with a Goldador, Sage, and a kitty, Roo, and have been pet sitting for many years and active on Rover for eight years. I have a flexible schedule and mainly work from home, which means I have time to do walks and exercise before work, during lunch, and/or after work every day. If you are interested in a timeframe that my calendar says I'm unavailable, please still reach out. I may be able to move some things around to make it work! I own a house with a great backyard for dogs. Check out the end of my photos for details. I never leave the pups outside when I’m not home, and Sage and I like to keep a consistent schedule so that she knows when food, exercise, and downtime happen.
“Liz was amazing! She picked up Momo right on time and sent some great profile pics so we see that our dog was happy and all tuckered out afterwards. She also gave some dog walking advice to boot. Professional, caring and fun!”
About: PLEASE NOTE: still available to be booked if you are going away for the 4th of July!! I’ve been around animals my entire life, bunnies cats, dogs and horses for the most part.

I just recently hopped back onto rover due to getting a new job but with a pay cut and been meaning to start up a second job again! what better way to make some extra money then hanging out with animals ☺️☺️I live in happy Valley and work in Milwaukee , so I prefer to work around the area I live in, but I’m also happy to drive a ways away if it’s a great fit!

I prefer to go to my clients homes for boardings, I want the animals to be in an environment that they’re comfortable and feel safe in!!

My dog is still a puppy and this was his first time away from us for an extended period of time, but the boarder did her best to ensure he felt safe and tried to ease his anxiety as much as possible. I will definitely use Amanda and Jamie for my future boarding needs!”
“Laura was absolutely amazing!! It was very clear that she treated my dogs with much love and care. She sent regular check-ins with pictures. I felt very relieved to know they were being treated so well!”
“Bonnie was very sweet and took such great care of William for us while we went away for the night! She is very friendly, sends updates, took him on his daily walks & even got in a bonus play date! So thankful to be able to go away for the weekend and not have to worry too much about leaving William behind. Would highly recommend!”
“Hannah was a great communicator and sent us updates and pictures daily. She responds very quickly and answered all our questions so well. Our dog had a wonderful time at her place. We will look to booking with Hannah in the future.”
“Mara was great! She was very communicative and took excellent care of our 2 pups. They enjoyed long walks and plenty of snuggles. It was our first time boarding them and we’re happy with their stay. We’ll be back!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”
“Wow…I just can’t say enough how wonderful Tommy was! He provided so many wonderful updates that made me feel like I could really enjoy my vacation.

I could tell she had a great time! Deeply appreciate all his great care! HIGHLY recommend!”
