“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!”


“Ron is great with Mima! She is a senior and isn't usually very comfortable staying away from me but every time I take her to Ron's house she walks in without looking back! Leaving her with Ron gives me peace and everytime I pick her up she is happy. :) Whenever we need boarding for Mima, Ron is right at the top of our list! Thank you so much, Ron!!”

“Vanessa was wonderfully communicative and considerate, and both of her pets seemed like absolute sweethearts too! I’m so grateful to have trusted her with my dog Dagger’s care, and would be relieved to do so again if I’m ever in the area in the future and need to!”

“Peanut had another great stay with Taylor and Liv! She's able to fully relax with them and enjoys spending time with them. It's such a relief to know she's with people who genuinely care about her and enjoy her company.”

“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 🙂”

“Keaton and fam were awesome! Daily check ins with photos of our dog having fun and being comfortable. He took great care of our dog and was totally evident in the pictures and when we picked her up! Highly recommend, will definitely use him again!”

“Maria is great! As soon as I met her, I knew Porkchop would be in great hands. She is attentive and sets a routine early on. I felt better on vacation knowing she was watching Porkchop. She communicated everyday and answered questions I had. Thanks Maria!”

“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!!”

“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Shari on Rover. This was our first time vacationing and leaving our special-needs dog, who has separation anxiety, and it was not an easy decision. From the very beginning, Shari made us feel completely at ease. She truly loved him and treated him as if he were her own. Knowing he was in such caring, capable hands gave us the confidence to fully enjoy our time away. Shari sent frequent updates and photos, which meant so much to us and really helped when we missed him. I couldn’t recommend Shari more highly. She is kind, attentive, and truly exceptional. We are so grateful for the care she provided and would absolutely trust her again.”

“I highly recommend Patricia and Kevin! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family and they could not have been more caring! My children (and I) felt so good knowing that our furry family member was in such good hands! From the picture updates to the reassuring messages, we were able to thoroughly enjoy our getaway and not worry! Such a great experience!”

“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.”

“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.”


“Heather was absolutely incredible watching our dog, she went above and beyond! Great communication and care and she was even kind enough to buy him a cute bandana. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you again so much Heather!!!”

“Evita is a great pet sitter! She is very responsive, flexible, and proactive in letting you know your pet is being well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her more, and hope she is available the next time I need to go out of town!”

“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!!”

“Zach communicated and our dog enjoyed his time. It was a longer stay than usual and we felt our Doug was well taken care of and lived while we were gone. Would recommend him to others. He truly cares about the dogs under his care”

“We had a wonderful experience with Evita! As first-time Rover users who had only ever left our cats with family before, we were understandably a little nervous, but she was incredibly patient and reassuring throughout the entire process. She was communicative, flexible, and very thorough, making sure we always knew how things were going at home. We especially appreciated that she continued sending updates and photos even when our cats were hiding. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cats' well being and took the time to make sure they were comfortable and cared for. We came home to happy cats and felt completely at ease while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter!”


“Kamrie was amazing. Super reliable and made me feel so at peace leaving my cat with her. She sent photos everyday and loved on my boy so well. Will definitely be hiring her again in the future.”

“Carmen did a great job! My very shy cat liked her from the first meet and greet. Carmen communicated well, sent pics and was very conscientious. I would call her again!”


“Mary is a great cat sitter! She offered to come do a meet and greet right away, and I could tell she was experienced with caring for cats. She made sure my girls were well cared for while I was away. She was communicative and easy to coordinate with. I will book with her again for sure!”

“My cat always has a great time with Lucinda! I’ve used her several times now and know that he is always in good hands. Lucinda is a true cat lover and will take great care of your little nugget!”


About: I have had multiple cats throughout my life and adore the opportunity to befriend as many new ones as I can. It's important to me that both you and your fur babies are as comfortable as possible and I'm happy to accommodate what is needed to ensure everyone is at ease and as happy as possible. I'm experienced with shy or aggressive cats to the biggest cuddle bugs, from kittens through elderly felines alike. I will give them the best possible care I can and look forward to collaborating with you to learn about what that entails.

“Susan was great with my very anxious kitty, seemed like they immediately had a good rapport, was great that she was able to get him to play during their visits as he’s typically a suspicious guy. Thanks!”


“Our three cats were happy and the garden and house were well cared for. Danielle was easy to communicate with. I would definitely call on her again when I have the need for a house sitter.”

“I've booked Molly multiple times since I've been out of town; she is incredible, very professional and caring, great at communicating, and went out of her way to check in on my kitties on unscheduled days. I'd absolutely rebook and recommend her for pet sitting!”


“Emma was amazing! Our cats clearly loved her and she was so great with communicating with us. We felt completely at ease with leaving our cats at home. Would 100% recommend Emma!”

“Clara is great at communicating in advance when there are schedule conflicts (which have been minimal) and in being flexible when things are different for our schedule. And she loves our pup as much as we do.”


“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!”


“Julia is great! She has watched my cat Bella twice now and has been extremely communicative and helpful. Bella loves having her visit! I would highly recommend Julia for all your pet sitting needs!”

“Tayla was wonderful when checking in on Goblin! The water was replaced and the litter was cleaned well. She gave us good updates on Goblin, who was being a bit of a scaredy-cat!”


About: Hello, Kaelin here! Cats are my favorite creatures in the world! I have experience trimming nails, shaving/grooming, and giving all kinds of medications to cats. I am happy to clean litter boxes and do light sweeping/cleaning. I am very respectful of our feline friends, and I understand that some cats want to play or cuddle and some cats just want to chill and be left alone. I will adore them either way. Thanks for reading!

“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++”

“Evita has an incredible smile, and that was indicative of the care and affection she obviously showed my pup. Our dog returned home happy, well fed, and well exercised. Evita was very friendly, and extremely attentive. I will definitely request her as a sitter again. Thank you Evita!”

“Gosh, Humphrey is so happy when he knows we’re getting close to Trish’s house! When I pick him up, he’s smiling and laughing as if you had told him the funniest joke. As someone who is anxious about her boys, I am very particular in who I allow to watch and/or be around them. I feel comfortable knowing Humphrey is safe, getting loved on, and being appreciated as an individual ❤️ Thanks Trish and Kev!”

“Catherine was great with our pup! We were traveling from out of state and needed someone to hang out with our puppy while we attended a soccer game in Portland. Great communication, provided pictures while she was watching our pup, and did great with our high energy dog! Would highly recommend and would use again if we are in Portland again!”


“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!”


“Damon has been a life saver for my daycare needs. He is reliable, personable, and communicative. I work full time and have an active GSD who needs adequate mental stimulation and play. By the time I pick her up, she’s ready to eat and relax for the rest of the evening. He has a spacious and clean backyard for the dogs to roam/play around in without it feeling too crowded. I always get pics and updates thru out the day to make me feel reassured she’s safe and having a great time. Would absolutely recommend Damon and his services.”

“Danielle was great with Mango and she sent regular updates throughout the day. She made sure Mango felt comfortable throughout her stay. She was also very good a communicating when planning drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend Danielle.”

“Exceptional couple who took great care of my puppy. They like dogs and helped me with some great training tips. You can’t go wrong with them. I almost want to hide my review, so that they don’t overbook we I need them😊.”

“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.”

“Sheung is a very trustworthy and kind person! Mochi was under great care. He went on an amazing walk under the cherry blossoms, he played outdoors and was no doubt a very happy dog when we picked him up. She’s also located very close to an enclosed dog park so that’s a bonus. Sheung is Number One!”


“Lilly was wonderful. Plenty of tail wagging going on and I know Kiko had plenty of fun on walks and runs, as his puppy energy was spent....in a good way in the evenings. I wouldn't hesitate to take Kiko back. Thank you Lilly!”

“Alison is dependable, reliable and a great communicator. She takes great care of my Bernese mountain dog, who loves going to her place for day care. Thanks so mich”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”


“Very thankful for Elizabeth and her awesome family for making Franklins day care the most memorable!! From play time to dressing him in the most adorable outfit, he was well loved and taken care of the entire time!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. As a child I grew up raising hunting dogs. In my early teens I raised a Seeing eye dog, which included many training sessions. After that I bred A couple generations of Golden Retrievers. While living in Montana I worked with several breeds ranging from Komondors to Poodles and Bichon Frises. In the last 10 years I have been caring for smaller abused breeds. I cared for a senior abused long haired Chihuahua and now have a little Puggle named Ozzy he is my JOY! I took an early retirement, so I have plenty of time during the day or night to care for your furbaby. I will treat them like my own. I live in a apartment in Slabtown. Plenty of places to walk and parks are close by. Nice neighborhood with lots of trees and other dogs

“Meg and Ryan are amazing! Treat our dogs like family and go that extra mile to make sure they are good - which is awesome with our senior dog. Am using and will continue to use their services!!”
“Lucinda is incredible with our boy! We can tell in all the pictures she takes that he has such a great time with her. She communicates so well. We always look forward to her reviews of how the day went with Cruz - she keeps it creative and always writes something fun and descriptive. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I grew up in rural midwest with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I was a dedicated and loving dog mama to my beloved bernese mountain dog, Riker, for 9.5 years and I miss him very much. I enjoyed taking my boy to thousand acres, Mt. Tabor, and several other dog parks and we've gone on many hikes on the coast, in the gorge, and in Mt. Hood forest. I have special connections with my friends' animals and I've enjoyed taking their dogs for walks since my boy passed last March. I'm a fourth-year doctoral graduate student at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). I have three full days of clinic per week and fill the rest of the week with writing and research. When I'm not in clinic I can be flexible with my schedule to take your fur baby on walks, check in on them to let them out, or schedule an adventure! I respect my client’s rules, preferences, and boundaries regarding their pets. I will avoid places they’re not supposed to go, keep them on leash at all times, socially distance them if requested, and never give them treats or food unless given owner permission.
About: Having grown up on a farm I have been around animals my entire life. My favorite have always been dogs and cats. I have taken animal care and vet sciences in 4H and volunteered in an animal shelter. I can't imagine life without animals, they add so much joy to life. I currently work part time as a caregiver for seniors. Most of my days are 4 to 6 hours long with weekends off. I have a flexible schedule . Since my schedule is flexible I can adjust to you pets needs well so they are being fed and walked at their regular times to help reduce stress.
“Julia has been very helpful pitching in for midday walks whenever we have schedule changes and cannot be home. We appreciate her flexibility, communication, and thoughtful attention to our dog!”

Plenty of opportunities for potty breaks for your pets :) I have worked with and owned all animals my entire life even spiders and reptiles. Anything your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable in my presence- it is my pleasure.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a child. My partner has also shared with me the many things they have learned from working in their mother's dog breeding business and at a company as a groomer. I have plenty of knowledge and experience and am ready to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own!! I'm currently not working at any other job than this one. This is my only source of income, so I am available all the time! I will take care of your home and pets, and bring my own needs and I will maintain the cleanliness of your home, and do as asked if there are instructions given.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs from ages 4 months to 12 years! I like to learn each animals needs and modify my care for them! I work three days a week and keep an open schedule to care for others’ animals the other four days in the week! I have a flexible schedule and can even help on the days I am scheduled at my main job! I always ask for your preferences for your animals! Whether this includes walk length, treats and food, and even mannerisms, I always want to make sure YOU and your animals are comfortable!

“My dog is getting up in years and some days has energy and some days wants to take it slow. I can always count on Tayla to be sensitive to her needs each day and tailor her walk. I couldn’t be happier with her sensitivity and kindness to my dog.”

“Emma was fantastic with my dog! He took to her so quickly and he’s usually more shy/timid around strangers. She followed all instructions to a T and took a bunch of photos which I appreciate. I would absolutely recommend Emma to watch your fur babies!”

About: I have a dog with seizures and I understand how much care is needed to care for him. I will treat your dog(s) with that same care and significance. I work early morning hours Thursday through Monday. I'm off work by 10:30am and can be available to walk, feed, administer medicatios and do drop in visits 7 days a week. I live in an apartment downtown that has a secured entry. I have a collapsible travel kennel that can hold a small to medium sized dog, I also have a wood kennel that can hold a pet up to 20lbs with plenty of room to spare. My 20lb Boston Terrier fits in it comfortably with enough room to stand up and turn around without any discomfort.
“Kat is incredible with my dog. She is very patient and in-tune with her needs. She's very communicative and I fully trust that my pets will be in good hands when they're under her care.”

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.

“From the moment my two dogs met Peter they loved him. He is so good with doggies! The pictures he sent me showed just how happy they were with his family. They were given lots of time, affection, and fun, as well as special attention and grooming. They were with him because I was in the hospital for a medical procedure that went longer then expected. For me Peter's flexibility with my situation and the confidence he inspired made leaving my doggies in his hands in an already stressful time for me a peaceful decision. I would clearly recommend him!”
