“I can’t recommend Leah and Chris enough! They were so incredibly thoughtful in getting to know our dog, Indy, and her needs before her stay. They were also very easy to communicate with, so friendly and very accommodating. We received the most amazing pictures of her while we were gone and also updates about her days & how she was doing. We know she was so well cared for and can’t wait for her to spend time with them again!”
“We LOVED our experience with Jennifer! She was wonderful with our sweet Luna. She sent updates with photos to assure us that Lu was very comfortable with her, her family and family pets. There's nothing better than to find someone who clearly loves animals and takes such great care. Highly recommend her!”
“Kristopher and his family did a wonderful job oc caring for Mochi. They are experienced and took time to learn about her specific needs prior to care. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing someone to take care of their fur baby and would use them again should the need arise. 5/5!”
“Paul and Arnell were the sweetest with my Bandit. Sent lots of pictures and are very responsive at communicating. Nice meet n greet and easy drop off/pickup. Bandit was definitely spoiled with these two!”
“Kristen did a wonderful job watching our dog. I love that she sends daily updates and pictures. We always feel comfortable having Kristen watch our pup. Thanks Kristen!”
“My dog had a great time with Emily and her dog Bowie! Emily provided lots of updates and pictures. He got lots of walks and was able to enjoy her fenced in yard. Olive and Bowie were 2 peas in a pod by the end 🩷. I definitely recommend booking with Emily, especially if you have a nervous dog that needs some extra love. Thank you for making Olives first night away so enjoyable for everyone! Kaitlin”
“Colleen took really great care of our medium poodle. She sent multiple pictures everyday, and it looked like my skittish poodle got along well with her chill Jackson. Wonderful care and service. Highly recommend Colleen!”
“Jared’s experience being a vet tech really shows. He’s communicated daily throughout the stay, and our puppy (who’s usually destructive) was calm and entertained the entire time. Looking forward to the next stay with him”
“This is our second time using Emily and Eric. They always go above and beyond to make our pup comfortable and send lots of pictures and keep us updated. They are incredibly friendly and we always know that our pup will be well taken care of when we drop him off. Highly recommend!”
“Sandy did an amazing job of taking care of Cody. we will use her services any tme we take a vacation or are away. Toby had a great time, and it's really nice to be able to live your dog with someone that takes as good of care as we do. it means a lot. ”
“Dave is amazing! His calm and loving demeanor really helped our anxious Dorkie settle down right away. After our trip, Harley came back home a happy pup. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our little guy was being well loved and taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be using Dave to watch Harley in the future❤️”
“This was my first time using rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my dogs with someone that I didn’t know but Bobby and Linda made me feel very confident in their ability’s to take care of our dogs. They gave great updates with pictures and notes on what they did that day. I will recommend them to others and use them again in the future.”

About: I bring 20 years of experience in caring for cats and small dogs, as well as reptiles, farm animals, aquariums, plants, and gardens. I offer garden-tending and pet-sitting services for those seeking reliable assistance while they are away or just busy with life's demands. I provide reassurance and peace of mind that the needs of your home and beloved critters are attended to with care. I love looking after homes, gardens, and animal friends while helping other people travel with the peace of mind that their loved ones and homes are being well cared for.
About: During my time at the Humane Society, I had the opportunity to care for cats alongside dogs. While my cat experience is still growing, I'm comfortable with basic care like feeding, litter box maintenance, and making sure they feel safe and unstressed in their own environment. I understand that cats are independent on their own terms, and I respect that. I'm patient, observant, and always happy to follow whatever routine works best for your cat
About: Cats are my personal favorite! I have had a Russian blue, a black cat and, currently, a tuxedo cat. I really enjoy connecting with cats, earning their trust and building a relationship with them. I love to spend time with cats, whether it's kitty snuggles or just being in the same room, I cherish every second I get to spend with my cat buddies.
“Thank you for being reliable and proving that Rover.com is something I can rely on in my future when needed. I am now confident that the next person I schedule on here to watch Jane will be just as caring and professional. Good luck!”
“Angela was absolutely AMAZING, I cannot stress enough. She really cared for my cat like she was her own. She went above and beyond to make sure my Pippa was warm, cared for and checked in on, litter clean, etc. She set up one of her own cameras for me to be able to check in while I was gone, which was so nice! We stayed in constant communication, she was so friendly and I just really appreciate everything she did for my cat and I. Thanks again, Angela!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats and dogs & got my first taste of hands-on pet care when I got my sweet pup for my 8th birthday. Fast forward, I now have the privilege of loving that same dog’s two puppies (who are now 10 years old). I work from home and walk my girls every 2-3 hours. I can exercise high energy dogs or make walks shorter and easier for senior pups. I’m very affectionate and love cuddly pups and kitties. I’m happy to tailor care to your animal’s needs & love them like my own! I’m also comfortable administering medications. I work from home full time so pet care is easy and flexible for me. I walk my girls every 2-3 hours and will be happy to do the same for your pup. Whenever I do leave, I try not to be gone for more than 4 hours to ensure no one is left alone for too long. I live in a two bedroom townhouse with a small front yard for quick potty breaks. The neighborhood is great for walks and is very safe. My two dogs are 10 year old chihuahuas and are very relaxed, friendly, and lazy (they love to sleep all day). While caring for your baby, I can provide separation if needed or preferred, or if it’s comfortable for you, everyone can happily co-exist. I also have a small crate available if needed at any time. I work from home and am home with my pets all day. I also have a living room camera to check on the babies whenever we are out of the house. I can use the two-way audio & microphone to talk to them with this. :)
“Beyond kind to both me and my kitty! Always on time, very attentive, and sent great updates and photos! Took the time to interact and play with my cat and always responded quick! Highly recommend!”
About: I adopted my first cat over 2 years ago, miss 14 year old Kiwi, and have lived with cats since 2020. If I can make my stubborn and sassy senior kitty feel loved, I bet I can do the same for yours :)

I just moved to Oregon from Nevada and am currently settling in and building a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time and availability to focus on pet care. I’m not tied to a full-time job right now, so your pets will get lots of attention, walks, cuddles, and updates throughout the day. Whether you need someone reliable for daily drop-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here and fully present for your pets.

“Angela seems very professional and trust worthy. Argos has enjoyed his time with her and we will be using her again. Thanks for helping to care for the favorite mammal in the household!”
“What a lovely experience. I feel like my dog was cherished, which is a wonderful feeling to get from a dog sitter. I'd happily let Anastasia watch Tucker anytime and would absolutely recommend her if you're looking for a sitter.”
“Mark is so great! My dog has severe anxiety and separation anxiety, so I'm always worried about having people watch her since I know the type can very difficult for people to handle. I explained my dogs issues with Mark and did a meet and greet, he was very friendly and more than happy to accommodate my sweet dog. Apparently she did very well and they went on some great walkies. :)”
“Jared was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, he was warm and welcoming to my pup, instantly putting us both at ease. Throughout the day, Jared kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which I truly appreciated. His communication was clear and thorough, and he even informed me promptly when my pup had a minor nosebleed. Knowing that Jared has a vet tech background gave me complete peace of mind, and I was confident that my pup was in safe and capable hands. I can't recommend Jared highly enough and am eager to use his services again in the future.”
“Devin was great with my puppy. Found out that my pup has a little bit of separation anxiety, but Devin managed to keep her distracted with walks and play time. Very happy with our experience. Will definitely use her again!”

“Genevieve went above and beyond for me and my dog today. It was a last minute request for a new dog to spend the day with her and because I wouldn't be able to drive in the evening she dropped him off for me. So unbelievably helpful. I got pictures of him having way too much fun and I could tell when she was leaving how much he liked her. Knowing he was being so taken care of today made things so much easier. Thank you”
“Upon initial meet and greet, Margaret was very organized and caring making sure to understand all of Romans needs, allergies, and activity levels. He ran a ton to get his energy out so knocked out right when we got home. Margaret creates a great space for daycare for small to mid-sized doggos.”
About: As a new Rover sitter, I look forward to meeting new families and caring for their pets. I've consistently cared for dogs & cats for neighbors and friends over the last 8 years and have extensive experience with various kinds of animals. I treat pets as family and have experience with drop- in visits, dog walking, and overnight stays- always providing care with kindness and attention. I connect well with all pets, from senior animals needing tender care to energetic puppies.

I have a very open and flexible schedule, and I will be happy to work with any client in a way that best meets their needs.

“Michael was a lifesaver today on Super short notice (my sitter cancelled last minute) he was very quick to reply, extremely friendly and professional, but best of all.. my dogs absolutely Loved him. I have an English bulldog w anxiety/separation issues and a mix doodle who is shy and full of energy at the same time.

Thank you again Michael!!”
“From the beginning, very responsive and helpful! They were able to handle my high anxiety dog and didn’t get annoyed by the overly long explanation I had about his dogality. Followed up with pictures and updates and my dogs had a blast! Highly recommend Cass and Trevor for dog sitting.”
“We just started daycare services with Sera, and she has been great! She’s very friendly, and sends us pictures letting us know Hoku is doing well. We, along with Hoku, look forward to continuing daycare with Sera and Panda!”
“Adnan really came thru for us. He was quick to respond to our last minute request for daycare on a Saturday. As soon as I met Adnan I felt comfortable leaving our girl in his care. We got some great picture updates and couldn’t be happier.”
“When your dog is so excited to see his Rover sitter again that he literally does repeated two-foot vertical jumps when he sees her again, you know that you’ve found the right person to take care of your Dodd!”
“Chica had a great visit for the day! Rossana was very attentive and provided a safe, clean (and spacious) environment. Chica is still getting used to be left with other people and this was a very positive experience for her.”
“Jennifer and her husband were great. They are conveniently located by the freeway and right next to a Banfield Vet which my dogs go to. She sent me pictures during the day and my dogs were exhausted by the time I picked them up from playing with her dogs. I'll definitely be using Jennifer again when I'm in the area.”

About: I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking that are tailored to your pet's personality, routine, and needs. Whether that looks like a long walk, an energetic game of fetch, or simply settling in for cuddles and calm bonding time, I make sure every pet gets the attention and activity that suits them best. My experience comes from hands-on work at a Humane Society and past pet sitting opportunities, where I worked with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. From shy rescues adjusting to new environments to high-energy dogs who need an outlet, I've learned how to read animals quickly and respond to what they actually need in the moment. Whatever your pet's personality, I've probably met one just like them, and I know how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Right now, I have a wide open schedule, which means I'm able to give pets the time and attention they deserve. Whether it's an early morning, late evening, last-minute booking! Whether I'm house sitting, stopping in for a drop-in visit, or out on a walk, I treat every pet like they're my own. When I house-sit, I stick to your pet's normal routine, keeping the same feeding times, sleeping spots, and rules. Drop-in visits are attentive and unhurried, and walks are tailored to your dog's pace and energy level.
About: While growing up I have always had a dog in the home. I’m a huge dog lover and don’t know what I would do if I did not have a dog in my life. I remember when my parents let me chose our next dog when I was young. I chose a sheltie and named him Arrow. The reason for the name Arrow was when I went to pick him up I noticed in his fur on the back of his head was an arrow. I loved taking care of Arrow and we had a special bond! I loved taking him on walks and he loved chasing me around the house. When I turned 15 I started to take care of one of my neighbors cats and fish when they went on vacations. After completing one summer, I started taking care of their cats and fish for the next eight years before I moved out. Once the rest of my neighbors found out I was known in the neighborhood for taking care of my neighbors dogs and cats when they were on vacations! I have also taken care of many of my coworkers cats and dogs as well. So rest assured your pet will be in good hands while you are on vacation. It will be one less stress to worry about. I currently work full time, however work three 12 hours shifts. I’m currently off Friday-Monday. So I’m available for the weekends, so perfect for anyone wanting to do a weekend getaway! I do work graveyard so I’m available anytime after 2pm on Fridays. However, if you need to drop of earlier just communicate so I can plan ahead. My girlfriend and I live in a townhouse. I don’t have a fenced backyard. However, have a small backyard that is used for potty breaks. It does have a small area of grass turf (fake grass). The good news we live in Fairview in the Fairview Terrace community. We have a very large area for dogs. So your dog will have lots of playtime in the grassy area. Also, the neighborhood is perfect for walking your dog as well. The community is fenced and a gated community as well. Our community is very dog friendly and many pet owners. We also have a micro mini Golden doodle. So your dog will have a playmate as well. We can also send photos of your pet to you while on vacation to help with the separation. I know when I go on vacation I have a hard time leaving my fur baby behind. For me, getting photos of my fur baby made the vacation a little easier!

About: I have deep care for the animals we get to live with and I take this joyous role very seriously. I’ve been a dog mom myself and it would always bring me some anxiety to leave him with a new sitter. I’m here to answer any questions and meet your pup(s) to make sure that everyone feels comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies learning the ropes, to senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m comfortable with specific care needs such as administering medications, following special feeding routines, and giving extra attention to pets with health concerns. I’m self-employed and split my time between working from home and from my office. My schedule is flexible most days, which means I can usually adjust my day to fit your dog’s needs — whether that’s morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening playtime. I make sure pets aren’t left waiting too long and always work around their normal routines so they stay comfortable and happy. I take care of pets right in their own homes, where everything smells familiar and feels safe. I’ve found that staying in their own space helps them relax so much more while you’re away. I really try to keep things feeling “normal” for them — same routines, same little habits, same comforts. I’ll follow your instructions closely so your pet’s day feels as similar as possible to having you home. I pay attention when we go on walks — checking leashes, making sure doors and gates are secure, and watching for anything that might make your pup uncomfortable. I’m more than happy to slow down if your pet needs a little extra care. Whether that’s meds, quiet time, or lots of cuddles, I meet them where they are and give them plenty of patience and love. I treat your home with care and respect, and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own. I want you to be able to relax, knowing they’re safe, comfortable, and so well loved while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Nicole — a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog mom to my sweet 10 year-old Australian Shepherd, Gunnar. We provide a calm, loving, home-based alternative to crowded boarding kennels, with lots of attention, outdoor time, and personalized care for your furry family member. We live near beautiful hiking trails, parks, and open space, so your pup will get plenty of walks, playtime, fresh air, and affection. Gunnar is incredibly friendly, gentle, and gets along wonderfully with other animals. Because of his easygoing nature, I do ask that dogs staying with us are non-aggressive and well-socialized. I’m happy to accommodate special routines, medications, dietary needs, and individual personalities — I understand every dog is different and deserves thoughtful care. Whether you need help during a busy work week, a last-minute business trip, or an upcoming vacation, I’d love to help make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog like family and strive to create a warm, relaxed environment where they can feel right at home. We’d love to meet you and your pup! I’m home all day. I have a big vehicle and am dedicated to getting outside! We will have lots of fun around here! Not to worry! I have a fenced grassy yard and right by a big park. I like to do at least 3 walks per day and am fine with doggies sleeping with me if they want or need!

“I can’t recommend Leah and Chris enough! They were so incredibly thoughtful in getting to know our dog, Indy, and her needs before her stay. They were also very easy to communicate with, so friendly and very accommodating. We received the most amazing pictures of her while we were gone and also updates about her days & how she was doing. We know she was so well cared for and can’t wait for her to spend time with them again!”
“Kristopher and his family did a wonderful job oc caring for Mochi. They are experienced and took time to learn about her specific needs prior to care. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing someone to take care of their fur baby and would use them again should the need arise. 5/5!”
“Kristen did a wonderful job watching our dog. I love that she sends daily updates and pictures. We always feel comfortable having Kristen watch our pup. Thanks Kristen!”
“My dog had a great time with Emily and her dog Bowie! Emily provided lots of updates and pictures. He got lots of walks and was able to enjoy her fenced in yard. Olive and Bowie were 2 peas in a pod by the end 🩷. I definitely recommend booking with Emily, especially if you have a nervous dog that needs some extra love. Thank you for making Olives first night away so enjoyable for everyone! Kaitlin”

“Dave is amazing! His calm and loving demeanor really helped our anxious Dorkie settle down right away. After our trip, Harley came back home a happy pup. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our little guy was being well loved and taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be using Dave to watch Harley in the future❤️”
