“Kris was great with my two pups! He provided updates during the stay and was comfortable with my dog’s medication at mealtime. I was glad there was a fenced in yard in addition to walks and dog parks in the neighborhood for exercise and socializing.”
“Noemi and her family were very sweet and patient with our first time boarder. She sent updates and pictures showing our dog acclimating to their home and their own dog. Would definitely recommend her!”
“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Elizabeth and Sterling were fantastic. I booked last minute without much time for a meet and greet, and not only did they oblige and still meet same day, they made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their dog Lilo is such a sweetheart as well! They provided updates and exercise and I knew my pup was in good hands. Thank you so much for your great care! And I'm sorry again for the late plane arrival on my return!”
“Barbara is a really warm person who my dog took a shine to right away. I was very comfortable leaving my little buddy with her and it sounds like they had a great time 🙂”
“Linda was an excellent sitter for our sometimes challenging dog. She kept him happy and entertained throughout the whole 5-day stay, including regular walks as well as visits to local off-leash areas and Sniffspots. She was also great with communication and sending photo and video updates. Eneldo already misses her and can't wait until we leave town again! We highly recommend Linda.”
“Shari was great! She sent photos of my puppies daily and cared for them like her own. She is an excellent communicator and seemed well-tuned to my dogs' needs during their stay. I will use her again. Thank you, Shari, for taking such good care of my pups!”
“Veronica was great! Our dog Perla is 1 year old and very active and playful. She was kept busy with Veronicas two dogs for 12 days, which Perla seem to enjoy very much. Veronica is very knowledgeable about dogs and very patient. She kept us informed with pictures and videos. We will definitely use Veronica again.”
“Tammy was fantastic and took great care of our dog! From the photos she sent us during his stay he looked like he really enjoyed himself. We definitely plan to use her again for and future boarding.”
“This was our second time leaving our elderly dog in Kathy's care. When I dropped her off, she seemed to remember the space well and plopped right down to relax. Kathy is super sweet and communicative, and I know if I have to go on a trip, it's like Zara gets a little vacation as well. I used to fret so much about Zara's separation anxiety, but I know she's well cared for and cuddled with at Kathy's.”
“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!”
“Jake was a natural with our hyper hound and took great care of him for over a week! We were able to relax while on vacation knowing that he was in great hands and had another pup, Jake's dog Zoey, to play with.”
“Serena was so sweet with Chewy and sent photos of him and Nugget on there walks and playing together. Great communication and responsiveness! We would definitely book again with Serena!”
“Fantastic experience with Tommy. He kept me up to date on how Myth was doing throughout his stay over at Tommy's with photos and check ins. You can tell he is a true dog lover. We will be booking with him again soon!”
“Hayleigh took good care of Enigma for 19 days. She’s very happy that she has playmates at Hayleighs and a yard to roam around. We’ll definitely be back at her place next time we need dog boarding.”
“Bonnie was a wonderful host for my anxiety-prone doggo. She went out her way to make sure Rosie was comfortable and even provided services I didn't ask for, like chopping up extra fruit and veggies when the stuff I supplied ran out. Would highly recommend and would hope to be able to use her services again!”

About: Pets have always been a part of my life, and I pride myself on treating others' animals with the same tenderness and attention that I give my own pets. I am gentle and intuitive friendly human to all critters, and love dogs and cats equally. I pay attention to the details in terms of the animals needs and signals and am happy to communicate anything that seems odd or that I am unsure about. I am an educator on summer break and have great availability. There will be a week here or there when I am helping at school, but otherwise my schedule is wide open. I take great care to follow owner instructions. I make a point to connect with pets do matter how brief a visit is. Kindness, trust, and communication are at the top of my list. This includes keeping your house and pet secure as I am coming and going.
About: 🔆 Getting started on Rover! Rates currently reduced! I have had cats and taken care of cats for over ten years, and I have loved cats my whole life. Your furry friends deserve respect and care, and I'm here to help when you need it!
“Atlas was so great with my normally shy kitty! Provided lots of play time and attentive care, plus plenty of pictures to keep me updated. Would definitely book again!”
“Camille and Shayla were amazing with my cat, and are very lovely people. My cat is very shy towards new people, and they respected his boundaries. He came out of his shell after a few days of them stopping by. I appreciated their detailed reports.”
“Adeline took excellent care of our 2 elder kitties while we were out of the country. We are very grateful and will definitely work with her again next time we travel.”
“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!”
“Charles is amazing! Very communicative especially on time and how my kitties were doing. Did a little extra for me too like brining in the mail and watering my plants. I’d use him again in a heartbeat! He truly loves kitties too.”
“We have a medically complicated geriatric cat and Gera came by for a training check in to learn our protocols. She also wanted to check in with our cat to see if she could accommodate her high needs. I SO appreciate this kind of awareness and her saying yes to covering our upcoming vacation after confirming all the care fit fit well within her wheelhouse. Thanks, Gera!”
“Hannah is an extraordinarily kind sitter who my cat loves! Her thoughtful questions, great pix and responsiveness are all top notch, I would recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Lucinda took great care of my three cats during the holidays! One of my cats had a life threatening medical emergency last Christmas, so I was nervous to head out of town, but knew each of my cats and my house were in great hands.”
“Susan did a great job taking care of my cat for two weeks. Lots of communications, videos and photos. I would definitely come again and recommend her!”
“Karly was absolutely wonderful!! My love and I were a bit nervous leaving our cat with someone new for the first time but Karly made sure that our girl was loved and cared for during our long week trip. We highly recommended Karly for all pet care needs. We are so relieved to have found a great neighbor that will help take care of our girl while we are away. Plus, she has a new best friend! ? Thank you for being the best, Karly!!”
About: I had two cats that I grew up with from when I was five to my early adulthood. I cherished my two cats and spent a lot of time helping take care of, assisting in things such as feeding them, cleaning and changing their litter, brushing them, and making sure they are healthy overall. I also have quite a lot of knowledge on caring for elderly cats due to having to help my oldest cat when he was in his twilight years (he lived to be 23).

“Couldn’t have been happier with Tommy and the care he provided for Juniper. He’s very experienced and it shows. He sent pictures of junipers stay and other updates. Will definitely be booking more stays with Tommy.”
“Kris is absolutely the best sitter in Portland. He is communicative, he is honest and he is very giving towards your furbabies, he takes initiative to go above and beyond!”
“Sequoia took great care of my 1 year old Great Pyrenees puppy, providing good communication. My pup came home happy and tired from playing with her canine pals. Will book again!”
“Allen was super communicative all day and sent me photos and updates throughout. He even worked on some leash training with her which I super appreciated and gave me some of his own personal tricks. I felt like Roo had a fun filled day with such good socialization with the other pups. I will definitely book again!”
“Serena is great! I love that whenever I leave Theo in her care, I know he’s going to get nice and tired playing with Nugget, and I appreciate the updates I get throughout the day. 10/10 definitely recommend and we will keep coming to Serena!”
“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 💞”
“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.”
“Kathy took great care of our pup who can be a little on the nervous side. The second time we went there our dog knew where we were and excitedly went straight for the door to greet Kathy which I thought was very sweet. :) Good outdoor fenced space for dog to play and nice neighborhood.”
“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.”
About: My Dalmatian bestie and I are looking for small furry friends to spend a few days with us here and there. I am a full-time pet parent to a high energy dog who makes caring for him the best part of every day. We both love cats and small dogs and have been caring for others together for some time now. Let's set up a meet and greet to see if our furry friends hit it off! I work full time from home with my Dalmatian! We walk 3-4 times a day and could easily fit another small dog into our routine. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers to sit quietly undisturbed, my dog will respect their boundaries. My home has lots of space for play, cozy places to sit, large windows to look out of, and a patio to sunbathe. We keep things clean and put away so there is very little trouble to get into. I routinely take my dog for walks throughout the day and have plenty of control to add another to the mix.
“Damon is a wonderful sitter and handled my two dogs with such great care! They had a great time and came thoroughly exhausted and happy. We got videos and photos throughout the day which was awesome. Your dog will be super cared for and in great hands with Damon! I highly recommend him.”
“Lauren is great! My dog loved her, and she was very considerate of his nervousness and followed our care instructions perfectly to make him comfortable. Her communication is quick, and we’re so happy she was available to watch our puppy! Two thumbs up!!!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Jamie had a wonderful time! Linda is great to work with, flexible and accommodating. I ran late to pick him up due to traffic and she was able to work it out. Jamie would definitely be happy going to see her again. And we will rebook thanks.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Our nervous dog had an amazing day with Christopher while we hosted a party. She had several long walks and lots of rest time before coming home exhausted. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girlie”

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: 🔆 Getting started on Rover! Rates currently reduced! I have a lot of experience around animals of all kinds! I've checked in on cats and dogs during vacations, walked people's dogs, and have experience volunteering as a dog walker for a rescue. Your pet is a part of your family, and deserve to be treated with respect and care, as well as have fun! I'm currently available most times of the day and most days of the week, leaving me plenty of time to help take care of your furry friends! 🔆 Trust is incredibly important when it comes to who you have around your home and taking care of your pets, and I take that trust seriously. Safety is my highest priority when working with animals, and I take the responsibility of a caretaker seriously.
“Kai was amazing with Wednesday and made it a lot easier for me to relax and not worry about my fur baby while I am away! They were communicative and thoughtful throughout the whole process.”
“Tommy is exceptional. One of the most fortunate things to happen to my dog and I over the past two years was meeting Tommy. He walks her every day, rain or shine, and he has NEVER canceled on me, not once! He is so loving to George and sends the best pictures of her and sometimes he makes her her own quirky themed ads that he texts to me 😂 You are not going to find anyone who does a better job looking after your dog, just stop looking and go with Tommy 😉”
“Seth was incredibly patient with my anxious pup who gets stressed around new people. He clearly has a strong understanding of working with dogs and he developed a lot of trust with my dog in a short period of time. His daily updates and pictures were much appreciated. He even did some training with my pup as a way to build trust and confidence in her. We can’t wait to hire Seth again!”
“Tanja was wonderful with our dog (goldendoodle puppy) She was very responsive to our last minute request for a week of dog walking and was very communicative regarding how the walks went (updates, pictures etc). Will definitely use her again!”
About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.
“Lucinda filled in for 3 days as a dog walker for my furry-faced chihuahua daughter. She showed patience and kindness to a somewhat skittish pup. I felt confident that she would provide the care my pup needed while I worked long days in medicine. I would not hesitate to hire her again or to recommend her.”
“Atlas is timely, friendly and a great communicator. Mateo loves to see them and hang out! They take the cutest photos too, including cuddling together 🥰”
About: I grew up with at least 2 dogs in the house always, have cared for horses, cats, and dogs. I have 3 years experience dog sitting. I am unique in that I make it my focus to connect with each and every animal that I have the pleasure of meeting and or caring for. VISITS: I pride myself on giving your animal a fun time, making sure they do their business, and getting them back safe and sound. HOUSESITTING: I will respect your space and am flexible with the majority of requests. Whenever I receive a sitting or drop in request, that is my first priority and I make sure to schedule my work around the care of your animals. In your home I will follow your method of caring for your animals as closely as I can to make the animals as if you are not even gone! The best way for me to get a feel of how you do things is through a pre-sit meetup.
“I am so grateful that Karly has been walking and checking in on my senior dog, Carl these past couple months. It is such a comfort to know that she is taking care of Carl while I'm away for a long work day!”
“Alyson has been walking my little blind weenie for about a month now. My little girl loves her and is always so excited for her walk. Alyson is so sweet and gentle with her. Alyson communicates well and is prompt. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! My name is Sage, and I have around 4 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I worked at a dog and cat grooming salon for 3 years, volunteered at an animal shelter for a year, and have also spent about 6 months housesitting and caring for pets for multiple families. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies and kittens to senior animals. I’m comfortable helping with special needs, including giving medications and taking dogs to the park. I also have reliable transportation and am happy to accommodate your pet’s specific needs. Thanks for your consideration! I currently have an open schedule and reliable transportation, which provides lots of flexibility to meet your dogs’ specific needs! I prefer morning-late afternoon, but am also open to occasional evening care. When caring for dogs in their own homes, I make sure to look out for body language cues, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable.
About: Over 20 years of hands on pet care under my belt. I've been the go to walker and sitter for friends, family, and neighbors across Portland. From energetic malamutes who love winter hikes in Forest Park, to chill cats who want a lap and a scratch. I've handled them all. I know every pup's quirks, keep treats handy, and always come home with wagging tails and happy updates. Reliability is my thing: on time walks, clean pickups, and no drama. Let's get your furry crew out exploring. I am currently doing this part time and enjoy taking care of animals. I am fairly flexible on when I can be available for pet care. I love animals and treat all pets as if they were own. I can tailor to the owner and their pet to make sure everyone is comfortable.
“Meriwether helped me out when I needed a dog walker last minute due to my terrible planning skills. She was very communicative and asked all the right questions about my dog and was patient with his mediocre leash skills and willing to enforce some of his training/boundaries we've been working on. I'll definitely be booking her again if she's available next time I need a dog walker.”
“Hannah is always super responsive and helpful. Our pup needed walks last minute and she was able to accomodate us. She always sends updates and pictures which I love and I know Scarlett is happy to go on walks with Hannah anytime.”

“Catherine was amazing. I’ve never felt this confident leaving my pup with anyone before. She kept me updated with photos and videos and even comments as to her well-being.. She was kind and patient with my very nervous puppy. I’m so grateful I was able to utilize her services at such short notice and over a holiday. She is truly the best I’ve ever encountered.”
