“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!!”

“Veronica was very attentive and sent pics, Bogey seemed to be having a blast! She has an excellent setup at her house and is a trustworthy and caring person. Thank you Veronica for the TLC you gave Bogey while I was out of town backpacking! Much appreciated!!”

“Sandy took such great care of our mini schnauzer, Hugo! She made us feel immediately at ease when giving us a tour of her place, which is a perfect set-up for small dogs! Love that she only watches small dogs and that everything is secure (fence with dual gate system and keeping the dogs at home at all times). I so appreciated her updates and photos as well! We will definitely be reaching out to Sandy for all future needs for Hugo!”

“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.”

“Linda was great with my dog and was very communicative. She went above and beyond to make my dog’s stay more comfortable. I would book with her again for any future dog sitting services.”

“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!”

“Larry is relaxed when he comes home. That says it all. Plus, Anastasia's vibes are the best. Thank you for taking such good care of my guy while I'm away!”


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!
“Keelan & Sabrina take wonderful care of Rosie. I am so grateful for their kindness and patience with her. Rosie seems to enjoy her visits with Keelan & Sabrina. She comes home happy and exhausted, just perfect.”

“Abby had a great time with Stan. She returned home happy, healthy and wiped out from all the play time. We will be happy to have Abby stay with Stan again.”

“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”


“Dan was great -- he was flexible in accepting (rather last minute on my part) booking request. He took my big dog on several walks to wear him out! Pick up and drop off were a breeze. We'll be back!”
“Our dog Taro stayed with Kyle for boarding while we were on an extended weekend vacation. It was our 1st time using Rover for him after 5 years of having him and I was feeling nervous about it. During our meet and greet, Kyle asked great questions and made us feel at ease about him staying with her and her pup Junie. We got lots of photo updates throughout the weekend with Taro and Junie becoming fast friends. We felt like he was on vacation too! We would definitely recommend Kyle to anyone and we will be back!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Madeline and highly recommend her! She took great care of our dog, Jayda, during a stressful time for our family and made the whole process so much easier. Madeline was communicative and sent regular updates with photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear that she took the time to get to know Jayda and made sure she felt comfortable and cared for. We’re so grateful for her kindness and would absolutely trust her again in the future! Thank you so much, Madeline!”

“Tammy was phenomenal taking care of my sweet Ralphie. I had no doubt that he was getting loved and cared for just as if he was her own precious pup. I had no concerns about him at all while he was with Tammy.”


About: I am a dog groomer and sitter of 3 years, I have a standard poodle and a Mexican hairless dog. I also show my Mexican hairless dog in akc dog shows. I have experience with reactive dogs, intact dogs, and primitive dogs. My specialty is aloof breeds as I love the connection and bond, it makes it even more special when they trust you. I work full time as a dog groomer and admin at barkzone, but your pup would be able to come with me and hang out in the office safely away from the other pups with fresh water and access to a backyard for supervised potty time I have a separate dog room for feeding time and kennels for unsupervised time away from them. If they need to sleep in a kennel I have extras or they can sleep with me. I do not have a fenced yard but I can offer structured walks around the block or to the parks! And lots of play time
“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.”

“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.”

“Madi was great with our two cats! She took the time to let our cats get to know her and was patient and caring. We got daily pictures and updates. I would definitely book with Madi again!”


“Gera was great! My orange son was in good hands. Did a much better job than I did of making sure they had all the right info on how to best take care of him and the daily updates and photos were a great reassurance. Would book again”


“Jessica (Joss) is a terrific cat sitter. It’s never easy leaving pets at home while you’re gone but Jessica made us feel so comfortable. She played with them, cared for them, and ultimately won their hearts (cat owners know how difficult this can be). Truly grateful for having her check on our girls, 11/10 would recommend a million times over!”

“Grace was great! Fantastic communicator. Our cat loved her. The place looks and smells great after being away for a week. Would book Grace again in a heartbeat.”


“Charles is amazing!! All three of my cats are shy, but he worked wonders with sweetness, patience, and respect for their ways…and thank heavens provided me with plentiful photos and thorough updates! I cannot recommend his services enough! 10 STARS”


“Kathleen was wonderful with our three cats. As per usual with cats, each is a little peculiar. Kathleen adjusted to each cat easily. Clearly an animal person! Made amazing progress with our shyest scaredy-est cat. The social one was spunky and happy when we got home thanks to Kathleen giving her the play and attention that she needed while we were gone. And the feral one got fed so he was happy too.”

“I highly recommend Kaylin for pet sitting. She was super understanding of my unique situation at the time and made me feel comfortable leaving my kitties. She was super responsive and receptive to all of my requests. Thank you again! 🙂”


“Thorough, conscientious, and caring--Angela took the time to get to know my cats' schedules and particular needs, kept me updated on each visit, responded quickly to my messages, and didn't hesitate to ask questions. I felt reassured and secure that the cats and house were in good hands! Thank you so much for taking care of my cat family over the holiday.”


“Janelle was so thoughtful and punctual while we were out of town. Sending us frequent and detailed updates w/photos keeping our mind at ease that our pet was home safe — we would happily hire her again and suggest her to other cat owners!”


“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!!”


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 ♥️

“Christopher is absolutely the best! Leaving Pax alone when we travel is always hard, but Christopher gives us such peace of mind! He’s really wonderful!”

“I needed a catsitter super last minute and reached out to Robin. I got a quick response and nailed down the plan within the day. Thanks for the quick turnaround and for taking great care of my babies!”


“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!”

“Lauren was highly communicative, despite my lack of cell service during my trip! She made sure to send pictures of my kitty and also tended to my school of guppy fish. She accepted my last minute booking and was easy to work with! Great local sitter.”


“Karly goes above and beyond to take care of my kitties while I am away! I work wildfire assignments and am gone for long durations of time, but feel comfortable and confident that my girls are always well taken care of with her!”


“Emma is a wonderful pet sitter! She was very detailed and communicative, especially because we just got a 6-week-old kitten. We got pictures and notes every day, and I could tell that my cats were happy and content while we were gone. Highly recommend Emma for any short- or long-term needs!”

“Margaret is great! She made a quick connection with my shy/nervous dog. By the 2nd visit, my dog was excited to see Margaret and not hesitant at all when I dropped her off. Margaret sends us lots of cute pictures and pays close attention to my dog's needs like when she needs a breaks from an overly playful puppy. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Our puppy had the best day with Kristopher. He was sensitive to our puppy’s needs, and eased her into meeting his crew when she was nervous on arrival. She seems to have had the best day, and we are so appreciative of his expertise with puppies.”

“This Couple…I have no words..I had a really rough week at work and they accommodated all the changes my work and schedule threw at me..I felt so bad and they were delightful and loving and attentive..My dogs love them..By the third day they were walking in their home like they lived there..Ha..I received pics and update and they had dog bed for my babies and gave lots of love and snuggles my doggies were almost asleep by the time I was home and always ready to see Lisa and Brian…Lisa and Brian YOU ARE MY ANGELS I feel so damn Blessed to have found you..Ill share yall but only a few days a week HAHA..Love yall and thanks for everything! You have made my Oregon experience so much better! Youre the Best!”

“My puppy loved his time with Anastasia--he was visibly excited every morning when I dropped him off, Anastasia sent photos and videos of him and his new pals having fun throughout the day, and he was thoroughly exhausted when I picked him up at the end of the day.”

“Mark agreed to care for my dog on short notice which I really appreciate. He was extremely communicative and was aware of my dog’s anxiety issues. Since I was booking from out of town, we never had a chance for a meet and greet, so my dog was pretty wary at the beginning. But Mark allowed him to move at his own pace and his dogs were very welcoming. Mark let me know how he was doing right away and sent me a lovely video. Mark was also very flexible with the pickup time. My dog did really well there. We can definitely recommend Mark!”

“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++”

“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!”

“I can’t recommend Kyle enough for dog boarding! It’s clear he’s enthusiastic about dogs. He sent photo updates throughout and gave great feedback about our dog during her stay. Would definitely board our dog with Kyle again!”

“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 💞”

“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!”

“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!”

“What a wonderful job Chris did today with Flip! It was so good knowing he was in such good care. And Chris took excellent photos of my little guy! Made the separation easier for me and I know Chris made it easier for Flip.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Desire was very professional. She responds promptly and provides updates. She went out her way to accommodate and meet or answer any of my concerns. My dog can be a difficult dog but she was patient with him and made me feel confident that he was in great hands.”

“My dog Opie loves Kira! She’s is super kind and very responsive. There was a day that my dog wasn’t feeling very good and had an accident which Kira handled! I’m very thankful to have her help!”

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 year-long sabbatical from a stressful job and training to hike the PCT, so I am available for your pet at almost all hours of the day! I typically hike a few times a week and may be gone for 4-8hrs, but this is flexible as your pets' schedule demands. My husband also works from home and can provide some extra attention and play. I'm a big fan of drop in and walks! I think staying in their own home is much less stressful for your pet. I am happy to offer a 15% discount if you book multiple drop ins per day (please inquire!). Currently, I am only boarding cats, as I have two cats of my own and occasionally foster. All guest kitties are kept separate.
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.
About: I'm certified for Pet First Aid/CPR and I'm an expert ear scratcher with senior dog and cat experience, including strategies for administering medicine and hydration. The bond with an animal is as pure as anything in life and they deserve our best. It would be my honor to spend time with your pet. Your pet is my first priority. I'm winding down a career as a music producer for advertising. My schedule is light and flexible. As well as being reliable with food and exercise, I believe that time and companionship are also essential parts of pet care. I will learn your pets needs, preferences and whims and will dote on them like my own, whether it be playtime or quiet couch companionship. We treat our two cats like the royalty they are, and I dearly miss the daily walks and friendship of our last dog. I'm excited about meeting your pet.
“Acacia always does a great job of picking up my dog and taking her on walks. I always come home to a very happy pup. Acacia is very dependable and clearly loves dogs. I will certainly have her come walk my dog again in the future.”

“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!”

“Jaclyn is my dog's new favorite walker! She's very reliable, gives lots of photos and great communication. Goes out of her way to take the best care of my furbaby.”

“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!!”

“I was apprehensive about using Rover, but I needed help during a recent work trip and hired Raphael. I'm glad I did. He was attentive, communicative, and accommodating with my schedule which included 3 walks per day, one of which was an hour. I would recommend working with Raphael to take care of your pets and for peace of mind. Thanks!”


“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.”

“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!”


“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.”

“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.”

“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.

He gets so excited every time we book that his little tail starts wagging as soon as we get to the neighborhood, it’s the best thing to know he’s so excited and happy to be where he’s going. Thank you for everything!!”

“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!”

“Fantastic sitter! My dog had tons of fun staying with Allen. He had lots of outdoor time with other dogs to get all his energy out. Allen was very attentive and cared for Koda greatly. Highly recommend!”

“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!”
