“Noemi was great! Very communicative, open and honest! My little guy is a senior and very anxious in new environments. By the 2nd day, I believe he was way more settled! She really cares for your pets while away and she even has her family to help assist which they all were friendly as well! I’ll definitely be booking again with Noemi!!”
“A big thanks to Christopher, he made the whole process easy. We were able to relax on vacation knowing he was being cared for through updates and pictures. We definitely recommend him to others!”
“Sandy took wonderful care of my dog, Albert, and kept me updated with great communication throughout his stay. Albert clearly enjoyed hanging out with other dogs his size, and I could tell he was well cared for. I’d absolutely book with Sandy again!”
“Linda was so accommodating and friendly, I felt at ease with them right away! They were so kind to take photos of our little dog Murphy which once we got back into cell reception it was a delight to see he had his own very fun vacation! Thanks so much Linda, you’re our first contact for our next time away!”

“Paul and Arnel were the best hosts! They were excellent communicators, sent us tons of pics of our boy, and did so many fun things with him. It really felt like they made him part of their family. I would highly recommend them to any pup parent.”
“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.”
“We cant’t say enough good things about our recent pet sitting experience with Gayle. It was our first time using Gayle and we were very happy with her communication and focus on the details to make sure the visit went as planned and it did. But more importantly was her attention to our dogs and making them feel at home in a new environment. In particular one of our dogs is a bit older and needs a little more attention and Gayle was very attentive to that. We would definitely recommend Gayle’s services.”
“I am grateful to Keelan for his empathetic and kind care of Rosie. He was so thoughtful in approaching her health challenges and encouraging in providing her social opportunities appropriate for her timid personality. She had a most positive experience on all levels.”

“My dog Remy had another great stay with Anastasia. I appreciate the awesome care and the pics/videos that she sent. I will definitely book with her anytime my dog needs boarding 😀”
“Dan took wonderful care of my two Labradors especially during a hot spell. He was undaunted about one of them being a 11 month puppy . I appreciated his care and attention to them.”
“Madeline is absolutely amazing. I would recommend her to anyone. My pup had so much fun, I was nervous leaving him with anyone, she communicated the entire time. Sent me photos and lets me know how my boy is doing. Will be booking for more than a week next time. House is amazing very well prepared for any dog she takes care of. I was very much at peace while on my vacation knowing my pup is in good hands.”
“Carrie did an awesome job watching my two dogs! Her house has a great fenced in yard and I got plenty of pictures of Blaze and Ember having a blast playing outside. Would recommend her to anyone looking to board their dogs!”
About: Hi there! My name is Janae, and I live in SE Portland. I have years of experience taking care of my pets, pets for others, and even fostering! I've taken care of all breed sizes, from small to large, and everything in between! I love and will be happy to take care of any breed. I understand each pet is different and has different needs. I understand how to treat every pet like the unique, lovable family member that they are! I've even worked with pets that have special needs, and know how to give gentle love and support. I love all animals, and will take care of your pet as if it were my own! I'd love to watch your dog and any other pet(s) you might also have!
“We hit the jackpot with Zo and Margaret!!! My girl is timid, has a sensitive tummy, and goes on a hunger strike every time I leave. Not only did Margaret and Zo treat her like the queen she is, they loved and pampered her like their own. I came home to a relaxed pup who was hesitant to leave (why would she want to?!)! There are no words adequate enough to convey my gratitude to Zo and Margaret. Their excellent care of my girl, their timely communication, and their highly evident love of animals allowed me to relax and enjoy a trip with my family. I am forever grateful!”
“Tammy was great - super responsive communicator, sent lots of updates, and was easy to work with to figure out logistics. We appreciate the great care she provided!”
“Amanda was great with my dog! She took care of her well and was very communicative. She has a great backyard for running around too, with is always a bonus. I would definitely take my dog back to her!”

“Kathleen was amazing! Our cat was well taken care of and adapted well to her visits. We felt comfortable with her and enjoyed the daily photos and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her next time we’re out of town.”
“Robin stayed at our house for 3 nights and looked after our 3 cats who all have varying behavior and medical needs. We got lots of cute pictures and all our cats seemed to really enjoy Robin's company.”
“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.”
About: As a pet parent to a cat and two dogs, I know firsthand how important it is to maintain a pet's daily routine in their own comfortable environment. Because I work from home, I bring my flexible schedule directly to you, providing dedicated sitting and drop-in care without leaving your pets alone for long hours. You can relax knowing your home will be respected and your animals will receive attentive companionship, regular exercise, and plenty of love.
“I have now used Charles 3 times. He is my absolute best and favorite cat sitter. He is always on time, communicates well, and covers all the basic cat care needs. What puts him above everyone else is that I believe he truly loves all he does- can caring for cats be someone’s calling? Apparently so! My cat also absolutely adores him.”
“Joss took amazing care of my cat while I was out of town. She sent detailed updates at every check in along with great photos! She is thoughtful, attentive, and a good communicator. I will definitely hire her again :)”
“Maya was communicative, punctual and professional. My kitties and apartment were both well cared for. I will book with her again without hesitation.”
“John took care of everything we discussed perfectly. He was friendly and we're convinced our kitties were happier upon our return from our trip than other times. We appreciate his willingness to give the cats the love and care they needed while we were gone.”
About: I was a vet tech for 13 years in Vermont. I dealt with all small animals but mostly cats and dogs. I am comfortable with administering medications and injections for both. Sassy cat? No problem, I’m ready for it ♥️
“Gera was so amazing. My cat was well fed and had a lot of fun hanging out with Gera. Im so glad to find someone who i could trust taking care of my baby when im not home.”
“Kay was amazing with our cat Shimmy, sending lots of great updates and photos. Kay clearly spent a lot of time playing with Shimmy - we would recommend Kay to anyone - thanks so much again!”
“Jenelle was absolutely amazing with my 19 year old kitty. She requires daily meds and Jenelle handle that very well. I loved all the pictures and the check ins. Janelle was also flexible with her schedule when I wanted to add an extra hour for more snuggle time for my elderly kitty. I would highly recommend Jenelle and would not hesitate to book her again this Summer!”
“Ann is a senior cat whisperer!! She took wonderful care of our two senior cats who have many medication needs and eating trickiness. She sent daily updates with pictures and text to let us know how things were going. We felt lucky to have her help and would definitely ask her to watch them again. Thanks ann!!”
“Jessica was an amazing cat sitter! She went above and beyond with her detailed notes and photos every day, leaving us confident that our cat was in good hands while we were away. We also really appreciated her enrichment activities and all the play time she gave our cat. I can’t recommend her services enough if you want someone who is attentive and caring for your pet. 😊”
“Raphael was great! Reliable, friendly, great communication and very sweet with my cat. He came by every day for 9 days and I got a picture of the cat in his lap every time :)”
“I’ve used Karly now three times as my cat-sitter while away to take care of my two cats, and just recently, for two weeks while out of the country. She’s great!! She makes sure my two babies are well taken care of - she’s gotten to know both of their personalities and tends to both of their needs (one’s playfulness and the other’s snuggles/pets)! She goes above and beyond and also considers me and the house while gone out of the country (by taking out the trash on trash day for example). She’s also a great communicator and I feel at ease trusting her to take care of both my cats and my home while away!”

“Kris helped us out last minute to take care of our two doggos who were out of their routine and did not love being in a hotel. They played. He kept them cool during the heat wave. He sent pics of two very happy doggos and they were so tired and happy when we picked them up. Thanks so much!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Lisa and Brian took great care of our pups, and had wonderful communication before and during care! The dogs were well supported in good hands, and we would be glad to return in the future!”

“We tried the drop in service today and it gave me such piece of mind knowing Dash was entertained rather than sitting at home alone. Tommy was quick to respond and very accommodating. Dash came home happy and sleepy. A++”
“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 💞”
“Very impressed with the genuine care and communication from Zo. My dog Bodhi can be rather anxious, so I was rather worried about how he would do meeting Zo for the first time. I had visions of him pacing around and barking. Instead I received pictures of him totally chilled out, relaxing and napping in the sunshine Highly recommend.”
“Amazing dog sitter! Ollie was safe, happy, and well cared for. Peter took daily photo shoots of my boy, and he always looked really joyful! I highly recommend them, and would absolutely book again.”
“Jackie was an absolute gem to our doxie Lilah. She had all the tricks and treats on hand to make Lilah feel safe and comfortable. Her large fenced in backyard allowed Lilah to let out her zoomies! we would recommend Jackie to anyone.”
“Chris has been amazing with my dog Bailey! Sends great updates and Bailey is SO excited to see him and go on long walks. Definitely will be using Chris again!”

“Linda was amazing! She took excellent care of my pug and always sent updates and pictures. She has a great yard and wonderful neighborhood. We are very pleased with Linda’s care. Will definitely be contacting her for our future dog care needs.”
“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!”

About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a cat, I know firsthand how important it is to maintain a pet's daily routine in their own comfortable environment. Because I work from home, I bring my flexible schedule directly to you, providing dedicated sitting and drop-in care without leaving your pets alone for long hours. You can relax knowing your home will be respected and your animals will receive attentive companionship, regular exercise, and plenty of love. I'm currently working from home with a flexible schedule so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm available weekends, most afternoons and evenings. I'll stick to your pet's routine in their own home, giving your fur baby the company/exercise they need and giving you peace of mind while you're away!
About: I love spending time with pets and walking outside. I've taken care of dogs since childhood, and now I live between Laurelhurst and Mt Tabor, so there's no shortage of trails in the area. Let's go!! I'm currently taking a sabbatical after several years working in tech, so I am available for your pet at all hours of the day! Staying in their own home is much less stressful for your pet than a trip to a boarding facility. Allow me to help your pet stretch their legs! I also have many years experience administering medication to grumpy cats, through my own grump, Moe.
“Catherine agreed to help me super last minute and did an amazing job with my dog Dino! She left incredible overviews of their walk together that assured me he was in good hands. She was super communicative all around and a joy to interact with! Would happily book again. Thanks Catherine!!”
“Jessica has been wonderful with Laura! Its been a week and It's a relief to have found someone that it's careful and sweet with our little one and we now know we can trust her. Laura (my dog) has her peculiarities but Jessica has been able to manage to walk her with no issues. Thank you Jessica!”
About: We’ve all been there. Concert tickets in hand, no one to bail you out. The encore is gonna rip but it’s been 5 hours since your ninja has been fed. I gotchu! Enjoy the show! I’d love to help the same pets over and over again. No renegade owners or abusers Hit the town or enjoy the concert. I’m just relaxing. Your schedule is mine and mine isn’t in the way of your fun! Water, food, excrement. No particular order but all 3 are a must! Funny fish tank videos and WU-Tang instrumentals. Prolly some fetch and feats of strength.
“The dogs get so excited when they see Desire coming up the steps. She takes great care in keeping them safe. Love the pics we get of their walk. Great communicator….I always know when she is on her way.”
“Kira is so communicative and easy to work with! She’s very through in the “rover cards” and I have so much peace of mind knowing my pup is being cared for by her.”
“Needed a dog walker for the first time ever and was nervous. Torri was great, even came over a week before to meet me and my dog. He was happy as a clam when I got home and it was comforting knowing he was in good hands.”
“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.”
“Nell is so wonderful and clearly so knowledgeable about pet care. You can tell she really loves animals. My anxious rescue pup adores her! Highly, highly recommend! I am so thankful I found her!”
“Nick is the best! He’s reliable, kind, and our pup LOVES him. Looking forward to more walks soon. I can’t recommend Krissy and Nicholas highly enough!”
About: I've been around dogs a lot in my life, but I helped raise a puppy (healer lab mix) with my ex partner this year, and learned a ton about what it takes to keep a dog happy and take care of a challenging, high energy, and extremely cute pup. Can't personally adopt right now, so I'm looking to make furry friends through rover! I work remote/hybrid, work early mornings on weekdays so my afternoons are typically open/free. I'm busy on a lot of weekends but will accommodate jobs where I can! Happy to go on walks, dog park adventures, hikes, playing in the yard, will treat your best friend like my best friend! I don't have a yard so I'd have to use your space or a local park.
“Lauren has walked my dogs for a week and done a great job. She has followed through with all the directions (especially all of the safety concerns- key back where it’s supposed to go and the gate latched on the fence). My dogs seemed very happy with Lauren, and she is very good about communicating.”
“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.”
About: Hello! My name is Marcela and I am originally from Guatemala. I am 27 years old and I live in SE Portland. I am a circus artist and an animal lover and will care for your best friend as if they were mine. I can walk your pet, play ball with them, or simply make sure they are comfortable and happy! Feel free to send me specific directions if your dog has a particular allergy, diet or requires any play or exercise. I live with a puppy and a kitten and I love them dearly so unfortunately for the time being I am unable to host. My puppy is staying with grandma until next week so I have some availability these days. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or mellow and easy going, I will match their mood and make sure they have the best possible time while away from you. I look forward to meeting your pet! Lastly, I want to make sure no one has to come home to a messy space and will ensure you bedding, kitchen and common areas are clean and ready for you to relax when you return. If you would like me to also do a deep clean of your home or any specific area, I am happy to add that as an additional service :) I work from home so and am available most days! Id be happy to work alongside your fur baby or check on them and take them out during my breaks. My schedule is quite flexible especially if I know ahead of time so I can prepare accordingly :) My goal is to help your pet feel at home and safe while you are away. Please let me know any and all things I can do to comfort and entertain them so their time spent away from you goes smoothly and quickly!
“Teryx loves Karly and her dog Nova. Karly has always been very dependable and gives us pertinent updates on Teryx’s behavior. We trust that she deeply cares for our dog and understands our needs as dog owners, too. We are lucky to have Karly to be around our dog regularly.”
“Sam was so great at communicating with me throughout her time with my pup. Mocha can be very nervous around new people and Sam worked really hard to help her feel safe and build trust!”
About: Animals have always been my first love! I grew up in a house with a minimum of 2 big dogs at all times and now have my own golden retriever and pitbull/heeler shelter mix. I’ve volunteered with dogs at the Humane Society, rescued farm animals at a variety of animal sanctuaries, and love animals enough to have gotten a degree in Animal Law. I promise to care for your pets with the same love and kindness I do my own. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so am happy to pop in and check on your pet or get them out for a walk during the work day. Safety and trust is truly the most important thing to me. I’ve used Rover before to find care for my dog and know how scary it can be to trust someone with someone as important as your pet. I’m extremely committed to listening to you and your pet’s needs, asking any follow up questions needed, and communicating with you throughout the whole process.

Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to. It was clear that our pup was happy at their home - large backyard to play in, lovely walks in the neighborhood, a space to hide upon hearing fireworks, lovely humans to keep him company. Highly recommend!!”
“Maggie took such incredible care of Indie! He had a great time going on walks, playing with her dog Ellie, and lounging around the home. Maggie gave us regular updates and was super communicative. Couldn’t recommend her enough. We will absolutely be booking with Maggie the next time we’re out of town.”

He has a very nice outdoor space for the dogs and is very attentive with them. I would highly recommend Stan as a sitter. Thank you for taking care of my baby!!!!!”
“We had the best experience leaving Alfred with Josh! This was our first time leaving our senior dog with someone other than a friend and we were nervous but Josh made it very easy with daily updates, pictures, and videos. It was clear how happy and well taken care of Alfred was for the entire week we were gone. It made our trip 100x better because we knew Alfred was in such good hands and we could just enjoy ourselves. We will absolutely book with Josh again and cannot recommend highly enough!”
“Our pups had such a great time with Taylor and Liv. We felt at ease knowing they were in great hands. They were comfortable with administering meds, managing their reactivity, and ensuring our pups were comfortable.”
