“Lisa is such a kind, easy going, and thoughtful person. She takes the time to learn and carry out your pet’s care instructions, and also sent photos + well being updates every day. The best part of Lisa’s care was seeing Rooster so happy and content in her home, not rushing out the door when we arrived to pick him up. She has a perfect home away from home!”
“Bentley can get really nervous around new people but immediately warmed up to Sandy. He was exhausted when he came home so I knew he had a great time! I loved getting pictures of him while I was away! Sandy is wonderful!”
“I almost want to gatekeep Kathryn, she’s so good. Dog sat my puppy for 10 days and don’t think he wanted to come home. No but in all seriousness, Kathryn is the epitome of professional and a talented dog person. Appreciate her so much.”
“Abby had the best time at Lajetta'a house! She cannot wait for her next visit! Thank you for all the pictures during her stay so we could see all the fun she was having!”
“Jules was so amazing with our girls!! She watched our 12 year old Chihuahuas for the weekend & they were so well cared for and happy! She took time to provide us with pictures and videos multiple times a day and our girls looked so happy and content in them😍 We usually never leave our girls with Rovers because we tend to be anxious pet parents, but Jules totally put our minds at ease. Our baby Bailey is a quite timid girl and can be difficult to warm up, somehow, Jules was able to get Bailey to warm up to her in just two days and even let Jules pick her up to carry her. If you knew Bailey, you would know how big of a deal that is! Jules has a very warm and kind energy. We cannot wait to book with her again next time we’re needing a sitter! Thank you Jules!!”
“I had to leave my cat for a week while traveling for work and she did great. Leah & Chris are amazing and the cat room that they have set-up made Ellee feel at home. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Ellee, Leah & Chris!!”
“Kimo is officially Connor's sitter. Connor usually stays with family for when my husband and I go out of town. We just moved to Portland just over a year and it's just the 3 of us, no family to watch him. I came on Rover and saw Kimo's profile and decided to message him. He responded very quickly and answered all my questions and concerns about leaving Connor with him, he made me feel very comfortable. Connor was with Kimo a week, and everyday he sent pictures, videos, and responded to my text immediately. I highly recommend Kimo to watch your fur baby/babies.”
“Dawn was great! We did an initial meet and greet to make sure my dog was comfortable in her house and around her dogs. She sent plenty of status of updates and pictures while watching my dog and my little guy was in great shape when I picked him up. Would definitely use again!”
“Barry is wonderful! Like many pet owners, we were so nervous leaving our almost 14 year old Callie behind for a few days. However, within our first meet and greet with Barry and Shaka we were comfortable, knowing Callie would be in good hands. Barry sent daily updates and pictures everyday. Allowing us to be more at ease on our trip. Communication was great as he was quick to respond and was very flexible with our drop off time, when we were running behind. Barry has experience with senior dogs, he was kind and understanding with all of Callie’s feeding and meds instructions. We could tell, Callie really enjoyed all the smells in the garden and the calm setting. We can’t say enough, other than we are so glad we found Barry and we would highly recommend him.”
“We had our new puppy stay over while we went on a 4 day vacation. I could tell he had lots of fun! While he's definitely adorable I know he's a handful so thank you so much!”
“Paul and Arnel are the best! They took excellent care of Lola and treated her like family, great communication with numerous updates throughout her stay. She definitely seemed to enjoy herself and looked super relaxed despite being somewhat anxious and slow to warm up. It's such a relief to know she's in good hands. She is already looking forward to her next stay.”
“Laura was so amazing!! We left our 4 month old puppy with her and she was extremely accommodating. She communicated with us throughout the whole process and even sent us updates, since our 5 year old son was pretty concerned about leaving his best friend with a stranger. I felt very comforted knowing Sylvie was in great hands. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Gabriela was a great sitter for my 11 year old pup Rigo. She was responsive and friendly. She sent pictures of their walks together and made sure to keep me updated. My boy is a bit picky and she went above and beyond getting him to eat. I would request her to watch my pup again in the future!”
“Annika, John, and Pepper were great with our pup Lemon. She’s very shy and takes a little bit to warm up, but she was cuddling with them in no time. They were very communicative and sent us updates so we were never worried. And Pepper is a perfect, well behaved playmate. :)”
“Christopher gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our vacation. He met Ted, our Aussiedoodle, the week before scheduled our trip. While we were gone, he housesat and gave Ted lots of attention. He sent us text messages daily with photos of their outings. The house looked great when we got home and Ted was pretty mellow.”
“Tammy took great care of our golden. She texted often to give us updates on how he was doing and we knew he was in good hands. We look forward to working with Tammy again in the future.”
“Sonia is a great sitter. I am comfortable with her, and my puppy is a fun, safe, and clean environment. Sonia is a great communicator, and consistently keeps me informed about my pup’s care.”
“Kathy took such wonderful care of our puppy and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our boy came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for! Kathy was also great with communication and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”
“Mousse always arrives home from her visits with Christine and Steve relaxed and happy. We appreciate the amazing photo portraits we receive during her stay and the great communication around how things are going and logistics.”

“Kelly far exceeded my expectations. My senior cat Jack was well taken care of. Kelly was stuck yo the agreed times and sent lot of fun phots. I knew he was in good hands And that meant I could relax while on my long weekend. I would highly recommend Kelly and will definitely be using her again.”
“Rachel is incredible. Such a professional. Made us feel totally at ease before our trip, and took exceptional care of our two boys. 10/10 we'll be calling on her again”
“Casey was amazing, my dog absolutely loved them! Casey went the extra mile to make sure she was well taken care of and comfortable while I was away. As someone who is picky with who watches my dog, I would not hesitate to book again with them. Thank you so much Casey!”
“First time using this app and was very happy to have such a positive experience with Rebecca! She is great, lots of pictures and communication, and my cats loved her. Highly recommend :)”
“We’ve booked with Alina before and once again she did an incredible job and really went above and beyond to take care of our two kitties while we were away. We could tell they had been well cared for and she also sent thoughtful updates and cute photos everyday. She really set our mind at ease so we could enjoy our travels abroad while knowing our kitties were in good hands.”
“Asia conducted house visits for 8 days to feed and spend time with my cats, Lucy and Penny (the girls). Asia sent photos and updates after each visit so I could see the girls were happy and healthy. I liked looking at the photos before going to sleep so I had that warm fuzzy feeling as I drifted off. Asia was prompt with communication and receptive to my many schedule adjustments leading up to her visits. I recommend Asia for anyone needing a sitter and will certainly book with her again in he future.”
“Alexander was very communicative and responded quickly to messages. This was my first time using him for cat-sitting with medication administration and I arrived home to a happy kitty so everything went great!”
“Cassie did an excellent job with our five cats. She visited at the recommended times. She sent pictures of the cats, so we knew all was OK. We’re very happy, and will use Cassie’s services in the future.”

“Micaela was fabulous! Everything went smoothly and she was awesome with the photos and updates. I came home to a very clean apartment and I can tell she took great care of my kitty”
“Sadie was so helpful making daily drop-ins on our cat, while we were away. She was gracious in having to clean up quite a few messes he made, she made sure his food, water, and litter box were kept fresh, and she spent some time with him each day to keep him from getting too lonely. She was very easy to communicate with during our trip. Thank you, Sadie for taking such good care of our kitty!”
“Jourdan was able to help with a last minute drop in that allowed me to take care of some time sensitive family matters. Her communication, knowledge, and care went above and beyond. I was able to do what I needed to do, while also knowing my diabetic cat was in the best hands possible. Thank you again, Jordan!”
“Tayla is wonderful! I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I felt at ease knowing she spent quality time with my feline friend and she was attentive to take care of everything he needed and a variety of play options. Excellent communication and also sends lots of cute pics”

“Storm takes a bit of time to get comfortable in new environments with new people, but she seemed to settle in easily with Gil and Peaches! We are so thankful they are patient with her separation anxiety and welcome her on daycare days!”
“Frank enjoys spending his time with Don (and Hunter) very much. He gets excited when we pull up to the house, because he knows he's in for a day of fun and VIP treatment. I highly recommend Don and Melodie for both Daycare and Boarding.”
About: I have worked at a doggie day care, dog walked and dog sat for years, and trained both of my personal dogs. My last dog was a reactive German Shepard so I have experience with leash reactive dogs. I try to do research and stay up to date on important animal care info and training! My schedule is changeable, but currently very flexible. I am planning on making it more routine and I am open throughout the week and during the weekends. I have a one year old border collie mix. I walk her twice a day, training everyday, and I take her on hikes and adventures on days off/ the weekend! I love to be active and if your dog is friendly I am happy to bring them along on our adventures!
About: I adore all animals, available for drop-ins, walks, and puppy play dates with my dog. I’m currently self-training a wonderful psychiatric service dog, Sobek (still in training). Together we have taken a large number of classes, passed the CGC, volunteered with Oregon Humane Training, canine PT, and had a whole lot of fun along the way. I am familiar with positive reenforcement, force free, settle training, crate training, socialization, clicker training, agility and capturing calm behaviors. I have experience with animals who have mild to moderate mobility issues, puppies, senior and special needs, safe stretching/activity monitoring, and reactive body language. *I graduate from Karen Pryor Academy March 2027* and will be a certified dog trainer then. I’m happy to answer questions or assist you on your journey, teach your dog a thing or two, make suggestions or point you to my many trusted local resources. Inclusivity, flexibility, and honesty are some of my main core values. I am honest about my availability, knowledge and conduct. I’m also a former pro photographer and bound to take many cute photos. They/them, queer/trans affirming. I work from home so I am flexible depending on my meetings. I am available late afternoons and evenings unless otherwise noted in my schedule. I’m fairly organized and pet-proof my own home. I always treat other’s homes as if they were my own, meaning I pack out what I pack in and respect the boundaries of humans and pets who live there.
“Another wonderful visit at Dawn's house. She has so much fun with Dawn's daughter and their two dogs. It's a mini vacation for Maggie when she is with them. Couldn't find a better place for her when we are away.”
“Ronnie was amazing with our 10 month old pup! This was our first time using Ronnie and will for sure be a repeat customer. Our pup was so happy and tired afyer his fun day with the pack! Thanks!”
“Sarah was a great sitter for my dog Rosie. Rosie was so excited to come back every morning for daycare, and Rosie and Ellie were fast friends. We will definitely book with Sarah again in the future!”
“Lajetta is the best! She frequently watches my dog and he gets so excited to see her and loves going over there. He usually doesn’t want to leave when I go pick him up. She does a great job caring for Tony.”
“Our pup Kya had a great time staying with Allen and his dog! This was Kya's first time staying at someone else's house without us so we were a little nervous, but Allen made Kya feel right at home. He sent us pictures and updates throughout the evening, and she certainly made herself comfortable. We will definitely be leaving Kya with Allen again in the future!”
“Peter took my puppy on more walks than he gets at home! He came home tired, which is hard to do with this fella. I appreciated the generous care he offered my puppy.”
“Phoenix and Ollie love coming over for the day! They love the back yard and phoenix loves all the toys he can get his paws on! Matt and his wife are super sweet and the boys love going over!”
“Leah was available last minute to care for my new puppy. She sent several photos and updates throughout the time and it was clear my puppy loved her when I went to pick her up she kept pulling me back to Leah! We will definitely be using this star sitter more in the near future. thanks Leah.”
“Debbie has watched Milo many times for me and I feel comfortable and confident every time I drop him off. She takes great care of him and every photo I get it looks like Milo is having a great time! Any and every time I'm in the Vancouver area I send Milo to her ❤️❤️”
“Took great care of Spike and showed him a good time! Kate took him to the dog park (his favorite place) and got him some treats at the local pet store (his second favorite place)”
“Parker had such a good time hanging out with Kimo. Kimo has such a chill space and lives close to a great park which was perfect for my senior pup. Kimo was very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!”
“Ava is a gem! Super communicative, flexible, and caring. Very convenient to downtown Portland / Pearl District / Goose Hollow / Nob Hill. She met with me and my pup before our day care booking with her sweet Golden Retriever ‘Lila - I immediately noticed how well cared for and well mannered her pup is, which is in my opinion a very good sign of her care and dedication. Moseley can be anxious with new environments and being away from his people at first, she gave him love and helped him calm into his day with her and took him on a nice walk. Would absolutely book again!”

“Shannon is very communicative and took the time to do a meet and greet. She also was mindful of the heat and even went out of her way to bring a package in for me. Thanks Shannon!”
“Alex was very friendly and punctual. He took great care of my little two guys for a solid week and a half. The pictures were great and I was more than assured that my dogs not only were well taken care of, but were having a great time or there. Book Alex with full confidence.”
“Bobby was great - super communicative, dog saavy and nothing but good vibes. He really went above and beyond by sending me lots of pics and a detailed summary of Charlie’s walk. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely contact Bobby again if I need dog walking or any other dog services.”
About: I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, shapes, sizes, and personality. I have trained puppies before (and even my cat can do tricks) as well have helped care for elderly pets who need extra attention. I am very skilled at reading animal body language and finding the right way to connect with each unique furry friend. My schedule is very open! I currently see clients on Tuesday afternoons/evenings for an internship, but otherwise my schedule is open and flexible. There are occasional dates where I have other obligations, but I generally am able to work with most schedules. NOTE: Not looking to house sit for longer than 3 days at a time. I am very respectful of the spaces of others, and aim to leave no trace other than my care for your pets. I am training to be a therapist/counselor, so I very much understand how fundamental mutual trust, boundaries, and communication are in a healthy working relationship and take that extremely seriously regardless of what service I am providing.
“Jenni is great. She has helped us get our high energy dog out for walks while we are at work. She is patient with our little pup, and he always seems happy on days they walk. She always takes great pictures of our dog, and is very communicative about what is going on with our dog. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Our 17-month old Boxer is full of energy and we haven’t yet trained him to stop pulling on leash. He was staying with his senior grandparents while we traveled, so we hired Victoria to take him on a long daily walk since she knows how to handle a strong dog. Victoria was great! She was timely every day, communicated well before and during the week she walked our pup, and sent great report cards. She asked our thoughts on walking her dog with ours, which we enthusiastically endorsed - our dog loves friends. Her dog and ours had a great time together and our puppy was thrilled when Victoria arrived every day. This was a great experience for us and our puppy.”
“Emily did great for a first meeting and walk with our pup. She can be slow to warm up and Emily was patient and very honest and communicative with how the visit went. Appreciate the extra step of cleaning up a mess our kitties made that wasn’t on the bill!”
“Mark was fantastic with Oso and was good at being firm but gentle. Oso seemed happy and pleasantly tired! Definitely would have Mark walk him again and would recommend Mark!”

About: When I was 12 I began volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society caring for and walking dogs of all ages and behavioral levels. I volunteered at the OHS until I turned 18 when I began working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, as well as pet-sitting. As a dog handler I spent time 1:1 time with dogs, distributing medication, and moderating large groups. Currently, I take many of those same dogs on weekly hikes, adventures, dog walks and work on basic obedience. As a dog owner myself, I participate in dog sports, service dog training and canine conditioning with my young dog and senior dog. Additionally, I am in the process of becoming a certified dog training (CPDT-KA) and certified behavioral adjustment trainer (CBATI-KA). I work a flexible part-time job, allowing me the time to provide 1:1 fun and intentional care of your pet, that works for you and your schedule. I will confidently and responsibly listen to and take action to provide the support both you and your pet(s) need. Whether it is walks, play, adventures, potty breaks, medication or basic training, I am here for you and your pet.
About: We have taken care of dogs of all shapes, sizes, and needs our whole lives. Both of us love the quirkiness of all pets, especially rescue doggos. My partner and I can be there for your pet, just as we are there for our dog 24/7. Between my partner and I, there will always be someone with eyes, love, and attention on your pets. We are very hands on and like to play with your pets. We will walk to the park, nap, watch TV, and listen to records together if that is what your dog wants!
About: I have been on Rover for about 5 years now. I have taken care of multiple animals during my time. It brings me joy caring for animals. I will make sure your animal has the best time while your away :) I have grown up surrounded by dogs my whole life. I have two German Shepards at home that are full of energy and very playful. I feed them, pick up after them, and most importantly play! We also have a small multipoo dog in our home as well. Being surrounded by dogs my whole life has made me feel very comfortable around them. My old housemate had a cat that loved to play with toys. He cuddled with you but only when he wants (but I’ll take it). He was a very friendly cat. I just love animals and nurturing a comfortable environment for them to be in. I took a break from Rover but I am happy to be back! My schedule is open and I am committed to your needs. I can be flexible if needed! When visiting a client's home, I will ensure that their pet is well taken care of with all their needs met. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and treated like family. I am very careful of any special instructions, medications, or routines and follow them closely. Your home will be left exactly as I found it!!

“My dog always has a great time with Josh. I really appreciate the pickup and dropoff service. Not only is it convenient for me, but I think it is less anxiety-inducing for my dog as well. I'm not abandoning her in a strange place - she's going on an exciting adventure with her buddy, leaving me safe at home (as far as she knows) where she doesn't have to worry about me. It's great for both of us.”

“Kristen is fantastic! This was the second time she cared for our dog Watson while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier. Her communication is excellent, with thoughtful updates and great photos sent to us throughout his stay. Most importantly, Watson clearly loves spending time with her. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust!”
“Such a great experience! Matt and his wife were very accommodating to my last minute plans to have a sitter for my corgi, and they were very flexible with her pick-up time the next day as well. They have a beautiful, large backyard for the dogs to run around in and they even sent me pictures of Bonnie lounging on their couch. Wonderful people and I will definitely be seeking them out again the next time I make a trip to that area.”
“Heath and Amy were wonderful! They took great care of Eloise and were patient and attentive to her timidness with new people. I appreciated the communication, updates and photos. Eloise got along great with their pup and they played and enjoyed each others company. I will book Eloise a stay with Health and Amy again in the future! Thanks again for taking care of my sweet girl.”

She’s also a CHAMPION communicator, sending quick replies and the cutest updates that kept me smiling. Bonus: she’s not only affordable, but super flexible too, which made everything so easy. I swear my dog didn’t want to come back home… and honestly, I don’t blame him! Highly recommend 🐾✨”
“Brandi was incredibly attentive to our pups needs and very communicative! I greatly appreciate the updates, photos, and videos. My dogs are usually very slow to adjust, but seem to feel at home very quickly. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
