“Kelsi was EXCELLENT. She very responsive with communication and loved her pictures and updates. Leaving a young pup with her felt like a lot to take on but she seemed very willing and capable! Sounds like they had a wonderful time together. I will definitely use Kelsi again in the future!”


“Liz and her family were fantastic with our Goldendoodle! Communication was great and we felt at ease our dog was in excellent care. We appreciated the attentive touches like an impromptu food pickup (due to miscalculation on our end during his 2 week stay), early morning walks on 85 degree days and some tasty treats. Highly recommend booking!”


“Susie was fantastic with my Charming! I felt she genuinely cared about my dog. I can tell my Charming was loved while I was away! Thank you so much for the daily updates and making him feel at home! I will definitely book again!”

“We are so sad to leave Nadine! Axel loves her and her crew and cannot recommend her enough to folks! Your animals will be loved on and taken care of. We will miss you so much!”

“Samantha and Brian’s family watched our Wheaten Terrier for two weeks. They kept us updated with photos and we knew he was in good hands. Thanks for giving Charlie lots of snuggles while we were away.”

“Chloe was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our dog and was wonderful to work with. She kept us updated throughout our trip and our pup loved her time with Chloe and her family!! Would highly recommend her and hope to have her watch our dog again in the future!”

“Angela, (with dog Henry, and cat Dingus) created a Fantastic Christmas for Freddie with an absolute last minute booking after our other potential boarder was not a good fit. Great photos and video.”

“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Murphy always has fun at Suzanne's. He comes home happy, rests and sleeps a lot for a day or two and then drops back into his more sedentary lifestyle routine. Even though we moved further away from Suzanne, we would never consider another sitter unless she's on vacation or has too many puppy guests ahead of Murphy. Suzanne is always notified way ahead of the dates we need her help so she can take Murphy.”

“Katie and her husband did a fantastic job caring for our Luna in their beautiful home when we were away for 10 days. She sent daily pictures and updates and our dog came home happy and tired from all the playing and adventures she had. They are very reliable and took care of our pup as if she was their own. We had complete peace of mind as we knew Luna was in good hands. Thank you both for taking such great care of her and hope to see you soon again!”


“Jean was fantastic! Our dog had the best time and we’re so thankful he had such a wonderful place to stay with ample room to play. She constantly communicated how he was doing with pictures included. He had a great time!”

“Once again, Oliver had a great time and was so well taken care of. The day before our trip, Ollie had an issue with his foot and was put on several medications. Stephen's wife, Connie, made a meds chart to ensure that every dose was given on time. That wasn't something we had planned for, but they were so great about it. That really allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Thanks so much, Stephen and Connie!”

“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”

“Shari is the absolute best! Roscoe had never stayed with anybody except for us and she made him feel so loved and relaxed. We are so thankful for the care she provided our pup and for the updates and pictures. I was so nervous to leave him but she reassured us that he would have a wonderful stay and she was right. Her disposition is so sweet and calming. Highly recommend!”


“I feel so relieved that I have someone like Myrna to leave my dog Shanti with when I go out of town! It’s always a really easy process and I love the photos I get while away. I can tell my dog is cared for and happy whenever I return home. Thank you Myrna! - James & Shanti”

“I felt very confident leaving Mowgli in Julie's care. She was communicative (via pictures and updates), kind and clearly knowledgable about dogs. Mowgli has a few things going on with his health and I appreciated knowing that he was in good hands. Thanks again!”

“I’ve worked with Sarah for a while now, she does drop ins to care for my three kitties. She’s been a lifesaver: reliable, thorough, detail oriented and my kitties love her! So grateful to have found her!”


“Kimberly takes such wonderful care of my deaf/blind old pup, Ollie and my shy kitty, Louise! She had dropped by to care for them a few times and I absolutely adore the photos she sends. I can just tell that both of my animals are comfortable and curious with Kimberly. I know it’s because Kimberly treats them like they were her own. It is so clear that she loves animals and really will go the extra mile (or few) to make sure the animals are cared for. Five stars and would highly recommended!”


“Highly recommend Kat! She took care of our two cats expertly for 6 days. One of our cats takes an inhaler for asthma as well as oral medication, and Kat was able to provide that without any issues which is so important to us. She spent quality time with them and kept us informed of anything that came up throughout our trip. She is very trustworthy and has a very nice and caring personality. Thanks, Kat!”

About: HI there! I have been an animal lover and dog owner my whole life. I grew up on a farm in rural Oregon with 4 furry four- legged family members! I had a wonderful Rottweiler for 9 years and we enjoyed beautiful hikes, brisk nightly walks and serene moments at the coast. Now that he has passed, I have been the go-to for many of my friends and family when they are in need of hands-on care for their pets. I have been house/pet sitting for 6 years now and have decided to offer my services on Rover.com! I am experienced with all sizes of dogs and have a firm but gentle tone. I like to keep a tight schedule with feeding and potty time and walks are always at the top of the list!

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”

“Our boy can be pretty anxious but Angela and her babies Henry and Dingus were so good to our pup. We were in town on vacation and just needed a day to run some errands so we’re so thankful she was able to make space in her house so last minute. Would absolutely recommend and we will definitely be a repeat customer if we’re back in town!”

“Steve and his wife did a wonderful job of caring for our dog, Dax, while we were in the area for a couple of days. Steve sent pictures and updates and Dax felt right at home with them. I will definitely reach out to use Steve again if we're in the area in the future.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover who currently shares my home with a beloved dog and three wonderful cats. My dog is truly my child, and I ensure he thrives through a strict routine of timely feedings, regular walks, and plenty of interactive play throughout the day. This personal commitment to my own pets' happiness and health is exactly what I bring to every animal I care for. What sets me apart is my experience with specialized care; I currently look after a special-needs cat, which includes performing daily eye treatments. I am comfortable following complex care instructions and providing the patient, attentive medical support that senior pets or those with health challenges require. Whether your pet needs high-energy exercise or gentle, specialized attention, I will treat them with the same love and devotion I give my own family. My daily routine is entirely structured around my pets. We start the day at a sharp 8:00 AM for morning breakfast and plenty of outside time. Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, your pet will receive constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and interactive play throughout the day. Our evenings are calm and cozy, ending with soft paw nudges for bedtime. Whether your pet needs a strict medication schedule or just someone to be there for afternoon naps, I have the time and dedication to make them feel right at home. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I provide a secure environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. To give you peace of mind, I am happy to send frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you can see how much fun they are having. For walks, I utilize multiple leashes and harnesses to ensure every outing is secure and controlled. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a vigilant eye and follow all specific care instructions to keep your furry family member happy and safe.

“Susie has been a wonderful caretaker for our dog during the day. Her experience was evident upon arriving for the first session and we couldn’t be happier to have found her.”


About: Your dog will receive lots of puppy love & attention! I've been dog-sitting for over 9 years and love it! My husband & I live in a very lovely neighborhood in West Linn (Barrington Heights) and have a large, fenced back yard for your dog to enjoy. We have a very friendly Mini-Aussie named Nova and 3 dog friendly cats. Both my husband and I are now retired and we enjoy providing your pet with lots of attention, affection & love! If your pet needs any special attention or meds please let me know and I am happy to accommodate! Your pet will receive lots of personal attention, without a doubt! Please consider us for your pet care needs! PLEASE NOTE: Due to insurance reasons: I am not able to accept dogs that are un-neutered, aggressive, or of a specific breed such as : Pitbull, Staffordshire Terrier, German Shephard, Belgian Malinoise, Rottweiler, Doberman, Akita, Chow, Dalmatian, Bull Mastiff, Malamute, Catahoula Cur, etc. I grew up with many of these breeds so please know that it pains me not to be able to accept them! My main objective is always to maintain a safe and harmonious time for all of my pets, my other clients pets and yours as well! I'm currently working Part/time M-F at a nearby school in the morning, but I'm home by lunchtime. My husband is semi retired and is often home in the morning hours when I am at work. I am almost always home by 1pm! I have a fully secure large fenced yard to keep your Fur-baby safe and secure. My dog is VERY friendly and really enjoys having "friends" over for visits!
About: I’ve been rescuing animals for over 22 years-I’ve cared for big, slobbery Rottweilers to tiny, judgmental cats, fish who pretend not to notice me, and guinea pigs that somehow eat like linebackers. I’ve handled rabbits with attitude, a special needs Yorkie who runs the house, and our Texas rescue Lucy—who I’m pretty sure thinks she rescued me. I have a designated bedroom with a ring camera just for my furry friends! We can keep the pets isolated in their own space the entire time, or they can have free roaming of the house. Options for those pets who need less sensory and more quiet and privacy. I work full-time at a hospital Monday through Friday, so my availability for more hands-on, all-day care is best on weekends. During the week, I’m still happy to offer overnight stays, I just like to mention that-because on weekdays, there may be up to an eight-hour stretch without potty breaks while I’m at work. I live in a fantastic walking neighborhood and can happily meet you in yours or bring them to mine. Can never get too much exercise in! Plus, my big fully fenced in yard is at their disposal.
“Nicole and Colton are great hosts. They became my go to day care after my first booking with them. They have plenty of friends and space to keep Bernie entertained all day. He comes home ready to sleep every time after a day full of fun!”

“Tawny was absolutely amazing with my 10 month old puppy, Stella - truly treated her as if she was her own. Additionally, she was always incredibly flexible with hours, sent awesome update photos throughout the day, and made the whole process a delight. I would highly recommend!”

About: I grew up having a dog in the house so I know what it’s like to care for one, and the responsibilities that come with it. I believe dogs are like humans meaning they need the same love and attention that we do. While your dog is in my care we will go on walks, I’ll play with them, and take care of all its basic needs as well as providing pictures and videos to keep you updated. One of my special skills is that I am very patient with animals. I know it’s hard to trust a stranger with your fur baby but I am very trustworthy and caring and will treat your dog as if it was my own. Thank you very much!

“Liz and her family were fantastic with our Goldendoodle! Communication was great and we felt at ease our dog was in excellent care. We appreciated the attentive touches like an impromptu food pickup (due to miscalculation on our end during his 2 week stay), early morning walks on 85 degree days and some tasty treats. Highly recommend booking!”

“Chloe was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our dog and was wonderful to work with. She kept us updated throughout our trip and our pup loved her time with Chloe and her family!! Would highly recommend her and hope to have her watch our dog again in the future!”

“Angela, (with dog Henry, and cat Dingus) created a Fantastic Christmas for Freddie with an absolute last minute booking after our other potential boarder was not a good fit. Great photos and video.”

“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”

“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.”

“Katie and her husband did a fantastic job caring for our Luna in their beautiful home when we were away for 10 days. She sent daily pictures and updates and our dog came home happy and tired from all the playing and adventures she had. They are very reliable and took care of our pup as if she was their own. We had complete peace of mind as we knew Luna was in good hands. Thank you both for taking such great care of her and hope to see you soon again!”


“Jean was fantastic! Our dog had the best time and we’re so thankful he had such a wonderful place to stay with ample room to play. She constantly communicated how he was doing with pictures included. He had a great time!”

“Once again, Oliver had a great time and was so well taken care of. The day before our trip, Ollie had an issue with his foot and was put on several medications. Stephen's wife, Connie, made a meds chart to ensure that every dose was given on time. That wasn't something we had planned for, but they were so great about it. That really allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Thanks so much, Stephen and Connie!”

“I felt very confident leaving Mowgli in Julie's care. She was communicative (via pictures and updates), kind and clearly knowledgable about dogs. Mowgli has a few things going on with his health and I appreciated knowing that he was in good hands. Thanks again!”

“Lyssette and family took great care of Gracie while we were away. She checked in with pictures and videos to keep us aware of how things were going. Looking forward future stays w Lyssette!”


“Tara was so gracious watching my dog over the holidays on short notice. We received lots of fun photos of my dog’s week stay at Tara’s winter wonderland! Thank you so much.”


“Peter and his family were the perfect fit for our puppy! Peter was able to accommodate us at the very last minute and even cared for our puppy while he was experiencing some digestive troubles. We got daily photos of our pup having fun and being treated like part of the family. We would 100% book with Peter again!”


“This was Henry’s third stay with Ron and Henry was clearly happy to see him when we dropped him off. As always, when we picked him up he seemed happy and was obviously well cared for. Ron has a great, calm demeanor that makes Henry comfortable immediately. So glad to have a sitter we can trust!”
“My dog, Yoshi, had a great time staying with Saawan & Kangna during a 2 week trip. We received regular updates and pictures during Yoshi's stay which was fun and reassuring. I appreciate that they were able to accommodate when our travel dates changed prior to Yoshi's stay.”

“Brittany and her husband were amazing. They made our pup, Alaska, super comfortable from the initial meet and greet and let her roam around their house. You can tell how much they love dogs and they treated her like their own. Alaska has a ton of energy and they kept her busy with lots of playtime and walks and they even did some training. She’s very observant of all of Alaska’s habits and asked really great question to really establish the best stay for Alaska. Brittany stayed in contact and sent photos and videos throughout Alaska’s stay which made me feel super assured that my pup was not only safe, but legitimately having the time of her life. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again.”


“Mariia took great care of my dog, Penny. She communicated with me very often and included lots of photos. She responded quickly when I reached out to her. I will definitely have Penny stay with Mariia again when I go out of town.”

“Kim was wonderful and willing to watch our pups even though she had a busy weekend herself. I appreciate the transparency and being forward with the information. I believe our pups were well taken care of and loved.”
