“Once again, I feel like Ruby was very well taken care of by Dahlia. She gives me frequent updates and pics of how Ruby is doing throughout the day. I am very pleased with her service and will continue to seek her for my doggy care needs.”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Kristen and the outstanding care she provided for our dog, Luna. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and professional—always quick to reply to messages and happy to answer any questions. While we were away, Kristen sent daily updates and photos, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear Luna was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Knowing our dog was in such capable hands made all the difference. We will absolutely ask Kristen to watch Luna again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Tuna had so much fun at Sandy's! What a great opportunity for our puppy to get some much needed socialization while mommy and daddy got some much needed time away. Also the photos from Tuna's stay made my week! Highly recommend this sitter!”
“Taylor and Liv were the best when it came to taking care of Atlas! They were very attentive, detail oriented, and made sure to update me daily on how Atlas was doing. They took him on plenty of walks and gave him lots of cuddles. I will absolutely be using them again in in the near future.”
“Another great stay for my dog with Tommy! You can tell she had a great time and is bonding with him and getting more comfortable with him. He is also very good about sending photos and videos so when I’m traveling I get a chance to see her having a fun little vacation of her own!”
“Jamie and Nicole were amazing with my dog while I was on vacation. They sent daily updates and were very sweet to my pup. Their communication was fantastic and I could not be more appreciative of them. Will absolutely book with them again in the future.”
“We rebooked with Sarah and she provided another excellent long weekend of care for our dog when we were out of town! She sent cute pictures and updates and we felt so relieved to know our dog was in great hands once again.”
“Oh my goodness, I'm pretty sure Hazel had an even better vacation than I did! From the start she was comfortable and snuggly with Paul and Arnel. Their home is warm, relaxed, and attracts good "dog vibes," if that's a thing. I so appreciated the wonderful communication, too-- frequent pictures and sweet observations came my way. As a first time Rover user, I had lots of questions about logistics, communication, etc., and Paul was incredibly kind and helpful. Thank you, Paul and Arnel, for being the best imaginable home away from home for sweet Hazel!”
“Jason took wonderful care of our pup while we were away for the holidays. He was very responsible and communicative. Argus was relaxed and happy when we returned home to see him!”
“Amber and her family took excellent care of our dog Dobby! He was obviously very comfortable and received a lot of love and attention while there. The photo and video updates gave us a lot of confidence to relax, knowing he was in great hands and having his own vacation!”
“It takes a certain level of trust to leave your pup with someone new for several days when you are traveling outside cell-reception range, and Holly earned it from us after the very first meet & greet. She was very professional, obviously having lots of experience watching dogs in the past. Her space is very dog-friendly and has a large fenced backyard. She listened to all of our special requests, sent frequent updates, and made sure to keep the dogs safe during the first heatwave of the year. I would absolutely trust Holly to watch our dog again.”
“Evita is an amazing sitter!! I found her somewhat last minute, and she was nothing but incredible. My dog had a lovely time while I was away for work for a few days. She was attentive, made sure my dog had plenty of walks and playtime. She has a small dog, and my dog and hers got along so well! Definitely going to be using her all summer as my permanent sitter!”
“Amanda and her family were fantastic. We were confident to leave our dog and was able to enjoy our trip fully without worrying about our furry member of family. She sent me photos and updates daily. Thanks again!”
“Living in a new place without any family members to watch our fur baby made planning vacations difficult. We went out on a limb and booked with Rover for the first time and are so happy we did. Carol feels like a family member to us. She took very good care of our guy and made us feel so comfortable with the daily updates and photos. Our French Bulldog loved her home and backyard! What a great stay. Will absolutely be booking with Carol our next trip!”
“Wonderful sitters! They sent me so many sweet pics and videos of my pup and I knew I didn’t have to worry about him while in their care. 10/10 will book again”
“Laura and Nick are expert pet sitters! Cleo has such a fun weekend whenever they watch her, which gives us so much peace of mind knowing she is happy. They do a great job sending lots of pictures, taking Cleo on long walks and outings, and are prepared with extra dog supplies on hand in case it’s needed. This is the first dog sitter we’ve used- are all dog sitters this awesome?!”

I will definitely book again!!!”

“Stayed extra long to make friends with my nervous orange tabby! Went above and beyond to make sure he was ok. Even had to play an impromptu game of hide and seek with him when he was hidden away. Truly appreciate how Karly really cared about my sensitive baby, Chonky. And jumped in when other care from a friend fell through. Thank you! Will definitely book again!”
“I highly recommend booking with Taylor. I work from home so my 2 active cats are used to lots of attention and love. They clearly got plenty of that from Taylor over the six days she stopped by to feed and play with them. So grateful that when I got back home my kitties were happy and fully exercised from plenty of play. 100% would book again and would recommend this sitter to anyone!”

About: My name is Sarah and I'm a dog lover. I work full time as a nurse and on my days off I like to be active and go on walks or hikes. I'm excited for the weather to get warmer and for the flowers to start blooming. I love to throw the frisbee or playing tug-of-war. I am also happy to sit on the floor and watch TV or study while my new furry friend takes a nap. I have experience with overnight housesits and also cats if you ever need additional feline care. I currently have two cats of my own. I love to explore new neighborhoods and local parks on foot with a new furry companion. Message me with any questions that you may have!
“Caroline took great care of my cats while I was out of town! I came home and they had plenty of food and water and their litter box was clean. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates”
“Emma was wonderful to work with! Very thorough in her meet and greet and her communication throughout the entire stay was fantastic. Our kitties were well taken care of and given lots of love and attention! Our generally stand-offish kitty warmed right up to her which is always a good sign! Emma not only took excellent care of our three cats but also great care of our home. Would recommend her, and will certainly look forward to working with her again.”
“On time, met Moon is advance, and was super respectful of the care document I left. I would have liked a few more pics, but I won't doc a star since I hadn't specifically said that before hand. The pictures I did get were lovely and Moon was well taken care of.”
“I was so thankful to have Molly take care of my kitten while I was gone. He’s usually very shy, but I could tell he felt safe with her by how playful he was being. He was well taken care of and would definitely have her care for him again!”

“Emily is the best! She took great care of my fur baby with updates and was even super patient with the nervous barking she does when meeting someone new. I really recommend her for great care, where you know there won’t be any worries. My dachshund usually doesn’t eat dinner when meeting someone new or walk well on a leash but she ate her dinner and was walking happily & even napped.”
“Margaret was kind enough to take care of Boingo on a Saturday when she normally doesn’t do weekend daycare! She clearly understands dogs and gave me some training tips when I picked up my puppy, which I really appreciate. Boingo was exhausted and happy after his day here - will definitely bring him back.”

“While we were on a road trip and in Portland just for the day, Lyle watched our dog so we could go to OMSI and Powell’s, etc. We booked last minute and Lyle even helped us with directions to his place. Our dog was happy when we picked him up, but also had a ton of energy so I’m not sure if he got much exercise while there. But I’m glad he had a place to wait and potty breaks.”
“Evita is super lovable, responsible, and flexible sitter. Our dog loves going to her home and spend time with her. Thank you for all that you do for Lulo!”
“Amanda was so welcoming and caring while dog sitting for Q. She was knowledgeable and very capable; made sure to know what Q’s needs were. Her dog Ginger was friendly and understanding of Q being shy. Q was so well taken care of in a few days she went from being really shy to getting all excited play with Ginger. Amanda made sure Q had her walks and gave me all the updates I needed. Q started to participate in play more so I know her time with Amanda was safe, fun, and instructive! I would definitely recommend her for dog waking and dog sitting!”
“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 💞”

“Cathy was absolutely wonderful not only did she take Sheldon into her home he felt it home, but she has a nice patio and she took him out for a walk all for a four hour visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She’s a very loving, kind and compassionate individual to get five stars, but I’d give her six if there were six stars available. Thank you, Cathy”

“Kai is wonderful and picks up on all my fur babies traits without me even mentioning anything. Which shows me that they are being ever so present with her, and I adore that.”
About: I have been around pets my whole life, when I was a kid in vancouver I used to imagine living in an apartment in portland and walking people’s dogs while I enjoy the city 😆 My schedule is in the process of changing and is inconsistent, I will take as many appointments as I have free time. should be available more often than not! lots of experience walking dogs, aware of how to keep a dog safe on a leash around other dogs and busy roads. experience with very small and relatively large dogs
“I don't have enough good things to say about Colby!! He walks my dog for me and just goes above and beyond for her. I've never used a dog walker before and was nervous to try it out and Colby just made the whole process so smooth and reassuring for me. He has excellent communication and sends cute photo updates. It's everything to me to know my baby is in good hands!”
About: Growing up I always had animals, especially dogs and cats! I absolutely adored each and every one. I love animals of all sizes, and treat mine like my children. I will give your baby all the attention, snuggles, and love they want. I have many years of experience in caring for dogs and cats, and would love to spoil and care for yours just as I do mine! :) I work through out the week so during that time I have limited availability but I am flexible for drop-in’s most evenings and early mornings. I am completely available Friday through Sunday. I will keep a close eye on your baby and make sure to the best of my ability they’re safe at all times! If you have a certain schedule or routine for your babe I am happy to keep them on that as well. For boarding, I don’t have a yard at my apartment but have easy access to trails/parks for walks and frequent potty breaks!

“Christopher did a great job I would hire him again and again. I can tell when my dog has done a brisk walk or has had a stroll. Each time Christopher walked my dog she was tuckered out in the evening. He went above and beyond. Christopher had great communication and came on time.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I’ve had experience doing jobs dog sitting, dog walking, dog boarding, cat sitting, and cat boarding since I was 12. I love animals and animals tend to love me too! I am currently stay-at-home, looking for a remote job so I can continue looking after my pets and hopefully yours. I am flexible and available on weekends. I have occasional trips home to see my family, but other than that I don’t travel that much. Every pet has its own personality and my care tends to match that, as well as the pets needs. One of the dogs I used to walk loved having a chance to sprint in circles over and over. I tailored her walks to go to a nearby, dog-friendly, fenced in park so she could get out all her wiggles before we walked back home.

In the past when we picked up our cat at sitters he comes to us ready to come home, but this time he just laid there looking at us in the other room, ignoring us when we called him to come. You can tell our animals were well taken care of and were happy.”
