“Shelby did an awesome job! Went above and beyond and sent so many pictures. We have a husky and she brushed out her undercoat without being asked. Would definitely rebook with her again :)”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
“Whitney was warm and welcoming, and Zoey loved her and her dogs!! Whitney communicated with me and sent me pictures of Zoey during her stay which gave me peace of mind! I will use Whitney again! 😊”
“Maddy is the best sitter! She was so welcoming to Milo and took such good care of him! He came back happy, healthy and clearly having had a blast with Maddy and her family. Would absolutely rebook!”
About: I have always loved animals! I have grown up with dogs and cats in my house my whole life and cared for them. I have dog sat, taken dogs on walks, volunteered at shelters, etc! I have always loved animals and I am passionate about taking care of them. I am a licensed teacher getting my masters online, so I have lots of time to take care of pets on weekdays and weekends and am available most times! I have a medium sized house with a private room, another friendly small dog, and a great neighborhood to take dogs on walks and a small yard.
“Always super amazing! Jennifer is my Koda's new best friend, which is everything you want in a sitter. She is good with meeting all of my dogs needs and being there whenever we need her!💕”
“Our pup was excited to see Chloe for his first stay and happy when we picked him up 5 days later! We appreciated the updates, photos, and video of how the stay was going. We were very comfortable having Chloe caring for our Kermit and hope he can stay again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and a few other animals all throughout my life. I had at least one pet in my home ever since I was 5! I can groom, bathe, walk, feed, and care for your pets needs. I am currently a college student and haven’t been around my own pets for a while, so I definitely miss playing with them. I have lots of free time, so I am very flexible and accommodating for all pet care! In my clients home, I’d be respectful of the space and tend only to their pets needs and follow all instructions. In my own home, I have a small apartment that would be perfect for small or medium sized pets to feel comfortable, with a nice grass park right across the street.
“Can I give more than 5 stars??? First time taking our dog, Bobby Lee, to a sitter and we couldn’t possibly be any happier…and Bobby Lee too! Elizabeth kept us updated daily on how he was doing, sent pictures, and communicated and a professional and prompt manner. Elizabeth was great with Bobby Lee, even teaching him some new tricks (really it was manners). She took great care of him as if he belonged to her. We are very grateful we found Elizabeth and will continue to use her to care for Bobby Lee whenever we are out of town.”
About: Hi! I’m an educator who has always had a deep love and respect for nature and all living creatures. As a professional in education, patience, responsibility, structured care, and high attentiveness are built into everything I do. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have had a dog since I was 3 years old—she was my best friend and was by my side until she passed away at the age of 19. When I lived in Turkey, I had two dogs, and I brought both of my sweet girls with me when I moved to the USA. Sadly, they have both crossed the rainbow bridge and are now our little angels. ❤️ Today, our family includes two little dogs and one sweet cat. I have been caring for pets since elementary school and have always shared a special connection with them. Back in Turkey, I actively helped many people adopt dogs, including helping the school where I worked adopt a campus pet. I truly believe animals are family, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and deeply loved is second nature to me. Why Choose Us for Your Pet? Constant Care & Attention: My husband works from home, and I work from home most of the time as well. This means there is almost always someone around to give your pets endless love, companionship, and attention. Professional Responsibility & Safety: With my educational background, strict adherence to feeding/walk routines, safety protocols, and individualized care come naturally to me. A Loving Home Away from Home: A friend encouraged us to try Rover, and we jumped at the opportunity simply because my husband and I both love animals so much. We treat every guest like our own family in a calm, welcoming, and stress-free environment. Peace of Mind: You will receive prompt responses, clear communication, and frequent photo/video updates so you always know your furry family member is happy and thriving. We can’t wait to welcome your sweet pet into our home! 🐶🐱✨ My husband works from home, and I work outside the home for a maximum of three half-days a week. The rest of the time, I’m home. I understand that every dog is different, and I adjust my approach based on each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. For example, I recently cared for a large-breed puppy who wasn’t used to playing with small dogs. To make sure everyone was comfortable and safe, I divided my home into separate areas so he could have his own space while my dogs had theirs. I also moved my workspace next to his area so I could spend more time with him throughout the day. Since he had a lot of puppy energy, I took him on walks more frequently than I normally would to help him get his energy out and keep him happy and relaxed. My goal is always to understand each pet individually and create a routine where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
About: Have always had a love for dogs. Frequently walk, feed, and play with many dogs. Family and friends entrust me to care for their animals when away. Take pets out for frequent potty breaks and can crate dogs if needed. Able to restrain dogs when required and to clean up after them. Feed and take proper care of each animal. I have a sweet dog named Gouda who would love to have new friends to play with, so if your dog loves play dates they would be a perfect match!
“Our fun loving Bowie had a great time with Michael and his family. Michael shared daily updates and pictures of our girl living her best life. Highly recommend, especially if your pup would thrive in a family environment.”
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments through my three years volunteering at animal shelters, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care. I’m confident handling feeding routines, administering medications, cleaning up messes, and making sure each dog feels safe and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just some calming company, I tailor my care to each dog’s needs. My Zoology studies also give me an edge in understanding canine behavior, which helps me build trust with even the shyest pups. Pet care is a big part of my weekly routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my schedule around the pets I care for to make sure they get consistent attention and love. Since I’m a student I have flexible hours in the summer, I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits or walks throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet your pet’s specific needs and keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs, and I always follow client instructions closely. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment, free from hazards, with lots of love, playtime, and supervision. I also pay close attention to behavior and health changes, and I’m confident handling feeding, medication, and cleanup. I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect.
“I appreciate Larissa very much. I am very satisfied with Larissa’s services. Larissa is very communicative and shared updates about my pup, which I truly appreciated. I would definitely recommend.”
“Susana was fabulous with Daisy! I received daily updates with a sweet photo of how she was doing including lots of walks and cuddling. Susana is well versed in dog behavior so she was able to comfortably have Daisy along with a couple of other dogs and monitor their behavior closely during her stay. Daisy was well cared for and seemed very happy during her stay. I would absolutely book Susana again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs(my own) and others since I was 10. Recently adopted a 3 year old Malinois mix who is a sweetie and really good with other dogs. Since then I have interacted with a bunch of dogs and learned a lot. Our Malinois is trained and loves all types of dogs. We have taught her some tricks so maybe I can teach your dog some too 😎. I’m currently not working so your dog would be my primary job. I can take them to parks, on hikes or whatever requests are given I deeply respect every individual pet and their specific needs. Whether it’s taking them to the park or taking a nice stroll on the neighborhood so they have enough time to smell every plant, I take great care in every aspect of your pet’s stay/care with me. I live in an apartment, with plentiful grassy areas and park nearby, but also don’t mind going to a client’s house. At the end of the day, I care for every pet the same way I care for my own, with compassionate care and safety at the core.

“Shelby was the best! She read outloud to our girl each day since she's not the overly playful type and I thought that was sooo sweet. She also left a very nice card and lickable treat for us to give her when we got home. We have used Rover a lot over the years and she is by far the best sitter we've met! :)”
“Whitney stopped by and provided check in visits as we had arranged. She was able to give the snacks my kitty enjoys and build rapport. Sent pictures to reassure me that my kitty was not stressed. Appreciated knowing someone dependable was checking on my little family member!”
“Alyssa was fantastic! Very flexible and her communication with scheduling or updates about my kitties was efficient but intentional! This was extremely helpful since we hired her over the Christmas holiday, so everyone is so busy, but I never had to reach out to her nor ask her questions. She was thorough with check-ins, took great photos every visit and my kitties loved her! I would most definitely recommend her and will be keeping her info in my "back pocket" to use next time because she was so reliable!”
“Alyssa was wonderfully attentive for the drop-in visits we scheduled to take care of our two cats. All of the instructions were followed precisely and she provided all the photos I requested (worried for a cat who doesn't eat well when we're not at home). She also provided great notes with context of what she observed during her visits. We met for a meet & greet at the house and to go over the care routine, and we were impressed with her pleasant and calm energy which is a must for any caretaker of our anxious cats. She provided not just the requested service but also peace of mind. Thank you Alyssa, we'll definitely be looking to book with you again!! 🙏😸”
About: I have had multiple cats over the years and I love them all! Currently I have two cats, Luna and kitty, they are 7 and 2 years old :). I love learning about different cats personalities, every cat is so different! I have experience with both very social cats and very timid cats as well.
About: I have been around cats since a child and love the unique-ness that comes with them. I adjust care based on their needs/wants, some cats are more social and playful than others. I do my best to pick up on what they want.
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats for more than 20 years, and animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family. I’m loving, patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior, comfort, and safety. Whether your cat wants to play, or curl up next to me for cuddles, I want them to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and cared for. ❤️
About: I've never lived somewhere without cats, and everyone in my family has at least one cat. I can handle all sorts of emotions from cats and can handle them efficiently (this includes antisocial and stressed moods). I'm also adept at recognizing and noting strange behaviors, as well as administering medications.
About: I’ve worked in small animal general practice for multiple years, and now work in a large animal hospital. I have significant experience caring for cats with special needs such as medicating or specific care. Since I am not a student I am reliably available for long stretches and/or consistent care as needed. Thank you for considering me to watch your feline friends!
About: My family adopted field cats when I was 5, and they were with us until I went to college. Cats need play, exercise, and socializing just like dogs, and I enjoy giving them that care and companionship. As a remote worker, I'm able to provide constant companionship and care for your cats.
About: I’ve grown up around cats and absolutely love their unique personalities! I’m comfortable caring for shy, playful, cuddly, and independent cats, and I always make sure they get plenty of attention while respecting their boundaries. I’m happy to handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and of course, as many cuddles as they’ll allow. 🐱💕
About: I grew up around cats, and the second I got ny own job I got a kitty of my own. I now have two cats, a boy named Severus and a girl kitty named Luna. They’re truly the best.

“Shelby is great! Loki enjoyed spending time with her and her sweet furbaby Winston. Shelby's an excellent communicator and matched Loki's energy level perfectly. She sent him home with a little note and goody bag, which was just so thoughtful! We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you so much, Shelby!”
“I can't recommend Jessica enough! My pup came home tired - which is AMAZING! Jessica was quick to respond (which was very helpful because I was in a time crunch!) and took him for two walks.”
About: I’ve been in love with cats & dogs for as long as I can remember. In my home we always had 2 dogs and 2 cats. I cared for four family friends’ dogs in California the last couple of years. I love taking dogs on walks, and play time and cuddles with cats too. I have a mini poodle and a cat at the moment, they are best friends :) I am an RN but I am not working at the moment, so I spend a lot of time at home, so message me and we can see if what you need works out❤️ I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your dog. I am also happy to play with them using their favorite toys! I am a nurse and I live with my husband who is a doctor (he also adores dogs). I am readily available to provide walks and companionship to your beloved pet on my days off. I would only dog sit your dog if I was not going to work, since when I do work in the hospital I’m gone all day and would not want to leave them for that long. So, on my days off and I dog sit and give them all the attention! I live in a 800 sq ft apartment overlooking a large park which offers an ideal space for playtime. I also live near a beautiful pond great for walking and exploring. I prefer dogs that will not sleep on my bed, but I’m ok with them going on the sofa.
About: I am an animal lover, I only have 2 pets in my home right now, but I would have a cat rescue if I was able. Experience with all ages of pets. My schedule is flexible as I work from home. I prefer to walk in the morning or evening, to avoid heat stress, but I am able to work around your schedule I have an 8yr old St. Benard who is a gental giant and a 8ish year old cat that's my baby. A fenced large yard.
About: I have years of experience caring for small and medium sized dogs and am the owner of two friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle. Because I focus exclusively on dogs under 40 pounds, I am highly familiar with the unique temperaments and safety needs of small and medium breeds. Working from home full time allows me to provide constant, dedicated supervision throughout the day, easily keeping up with your dog's specific feeding and bathroom schedules while keeping their anxiety low. Your dog will also have access to a fully fenced backyard, offering a completely secure space to get fresh air, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised outdoor playtime with Minion and Gizmo without any risk of escaping. Whether your dog has high energy or is a calm companion who just wants to nap by my desk while I work, I provide a peaceful, attentive environment tailored to making them feel safe and right at home. Since I work from home full time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine. My workday is structured around the dogs, meaning guest pets are never left unattended and receive constant companionship. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to step away from my screen and supervise outdoor playtime in my fully fenced backyard. Your dog will join my own friendly pups, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, for a consistent schedule of morning feeds, afternoon backyard romps, and plenty of desk side company while I work. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, bathroom, or exercise timelines without any disruption to my work week. Trust and safety are the foundation of how I operate, which is why I provide care exclusively in my own home where I can maintain total oversight. To guarantee a secure environment, I strictly enforce a 40 pound weight limit for all guests. This ensures everyone is evenly matched with my own friendly dogs, Minion, a 12 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and Gizmo, a 5 year old mini poodle, eliminating the safety risks and anxiety that come with mixing large and small breeds. Because I work from home full time, your dog will never be left unattended and will receive constant supervision. Outdoor time is restricted to a fully fenced backyard where I am always physically present to monitor play and bathroom breaks. I build trust with owners through transparent communication, regular photo updates, and precise adherence to your dog's established feeding and routine instructions, providing a predictable and protective environment where your pet can feel completely safe.
“Zuri is an exceptional sitter, I’m so thankful to found her, she’s always been sweet and kind to reply and take care of my big boy. I’m sure my puppy is always happy to be at her house. She takes some adorable pictures and videos and send it to me. An amazing sitter that I love!!”
“Bruno and Cooper just had the most amazing day at Elizabeth’s. We have been looking for our new sitter after ours for the past ten years decided to retire from dog sitting/daycare. Elizabeth kept me informed all day through picture updates of our boys having a great time. Our dogs came home happy and tired. Everything we could ask for after a day of playing. Thank you Elizabeth. So happy we found you.”
“Tess was available with short notice. She was able to wrangle my energetic dogs through their first babysitting experience. They were with her for a couple of hours and were extremely comfortable. Thanks, Tess!”
“Super grateful for Tianna to watch my pup last minute. Lliira warmed up to her immediately. Tianna kept track of her potties and treats. Her home was clean and she’s got a decently sized backyard so Lliira had a chance to explore and be socialized with her own dogs. Very satisfied and will be using her again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Callie had an absolute blast! I appreciate the communication and updates! Gayle and her family are very friendly and took great care of Callie. I can’t wait to book again so she gets used to being in a new space! Thanks again , she is wore out! 🤗😴”
About: Hi, I am an animal lover and former rescue volunteer & pet sitting professional. Being a long time animal owner (cats, dogs, turtles, hamsters & fish), I understand the importance of having a responsible and dedicated sitter available. In the past I have rescued and boarded different dogs and cats with different needs keeping them on holistic diets and regular baths when needed, I thrive in giving them a loving environment at home (with tons of cuddles). I also have a personal belief on the importance of outdoor activity. I have a lot of experience with medium and larger breeds (Pomeranian, Beagles, Chow Chow, Rottweiler, Sheperds, Labs, & Mixes, etc), and also with senior dogs. I am a doggie parent. I also will send you periodic pictures of your fur baby during their time with me. I do walk in visits for pet parents. I try to work with a flexible schedule, but it depends on the needs of the pet. Some pets preffer 2 visits per day to make sure house is clean and pets are fed. But mostly will preffer the ability to drop in the evenings and early mornings. When I go to clients homes, I first have a meet and greet to determine best fit. I also like to fill out a log for all the dog needs. Some people like to give me a list and I am very happy when they do! I adapt to the need of the pet. For example some cats are shy and take longer to interact. I talk to them and keep them company. Make sure to take out any pet who enjoys a good 20-30 minute walk.
About: Hi! I have experience with all different types of animals. I have a 7 year old terrier mix that gets along with other dogs. I used to foster and took care of all types of dogs. I’m a nurse so I have experience with giving meds. When I go to work, my boyfriend is at home and your pet will not be alone. I work 3 days a week but my boyfriend works from home and is home all of the time. We can take your dog to the park and go on walks at least twice a day. We have a two bedroom house with plenty of space inside. We have a small outdoor space for your dog to sniff but we will go on daily walks with your dog.
“Danielle was wonderful with our shy, anxious rescue. She communicated well and asked plenty of great questions, was kind and patient, and has a calm demeanor. We weren't able to do a meet and greet in advance since I was traveling through, which made it even more impressive that my pup warmed up to her right away and relaxed so quickly. Responsible, professional service. Highly recommend!”
“Diana D. was so accommodating to take my little Harley at such short notice. When I came back to pick him up she shared with me some simple ways to help him feel more confident. Diana sent pictures throughout the day as well, which helped me get the a long meeting. Thank you again Diana.”

“After a long stay with Skye, we were able to work with McKenzie again the weekend after for a few walks while we were at a festival. She was so amazing, taking Skye out on long walks and feeding her. We’re so happy we found her and can’t wait to work with her again!”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since before I could walk! I started pet sitting for my neighbors when I was a kid and have spent most of my life helping out my friends and family with their pets. I am a huge animal lover and also very active! I often pet sit for my friends and love to take their dogs on walks and runs. I live in Albany with my cat, Bill, and work from home a lot so I have lots of availability and would love some more dog time in my life! I work from home four days a week (wednesday’s i am in office) so i have a lot of availability to spend time with your dog! I am also an active runner and walker, so I can get your pup outside and get out energy if that’s what they need, or we can cuddle up inside and play or hang out :) I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment with lots of grassy areas and walking paths around. I do have a cat, he gets along well with dogs, but your pup would need to be okay with cats! I have a very gentle approach to dogs and respecting their boundaries is so important to me. Depending on what you prefer for your dog, they are free to roam my apartment and be on furniture, unless you prefer them not to be! I have some experience training so if you’re in the middle of building habits, i will adhere to those practices :)
About: I’ve always grown up with pets in the house and we’ve had dogs in all ranges from chihuahuas to siberian huskies! I trained all three of our huskies to sit, shake, lay down, pray, roll over, etc. They are also all leash trained. My cats are fed twice daily so I definitely understand the importance of keeping a routine with pets! We are fortunate to have an automatic litter box, but I truly don’t mind cleaning litter boxes/picking up after pets. My cats have been trained to stay off furniture in my home and are leash trained to go on walks with me. They are fed twice a day and has access to their space which includes their food and water, litter box, cat tree, and toys at all times.
About: I have worked at a boarding facility for three years. I currently work at an animal emergency facility and have been here for 2 years. I love animals and caring for them is my calling.

I do work as a veterinary assistant but I have a set schedule that allows me to be work another job. I have a create if needed. I have cat and dog proofed my home. I have a quiet room for birds and rodents if need be that away from the fur babies. I leash walk dogs only. I am willing to leash walk cats but only by request. I live by the Jackson Frazier Wet lands so walking dogs there is always a nice walk for them and me.
About: I have been trusted with pet and house care since I was around 10 years old, I truly treat every animal I watch as my own. I am comfortable with caring for multiple pets at a time and have experience caring for newborn kittens with health complications, senior animals, and special needs animals. I will typically build my days around pet care. My only time constraints at the time are two classes this upcoming fall term (starts around September 20th). I will have lots of time to dedicate to your fur babies. I am happy to follow the routines, instructions, and typical practices for your animal(s) in your home. I always make an effort to respect the space, communicate clearly and often, and provide care you can trust.
About: I have always loved animals! I have grown up with dogs and cats in my house my whole life and cared for them. I have dog sat, taken dogs on walks, volunteered at shelters, etc! I have always loved animals and I am passionate about taking care of them. I am a licensed teacher getting my masters online, so I have lots of time to take care of pets on weekdays and weekends and am available most times!

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have experience in senior and puppy care. I love dogs and have cared for ones of all sizes. I’m currently volunteering so I’ll have plenty of free days and weekends to watch and care for animals. My days are fairly free and I’m open for last second bookings. I have experience in crate training two dogs while providing them with a safe and comfortable experience. I also have a safe fenced yard with two friendly dogs.
About: I've been around dogs intermittently, ranging from small to large, lazy to active, and administered medicine to elderly dogs as well. I understand that every dog is different and will do my very best to accommodate to each and every dog I take care of. I have a very open availability, I'm only away for ~10hrs spread out between two days during the weekdays. I can pop for however long or stay for a couple of hours! Whatever the pet needs I can provide. I keep a watchful, attentive eye on the pets I care for. I give them my full attention when playing with them, and whenever they ask for attention. I treat all animals with respect and play with them in a style suited for each individual personality.
About: I have taken care of dogs of various sizes and breads since I was five years old. My neighbors and friends trust me to take impeccable care for their pets. I am currently in college and I work part-time three days a week. Although, I have quite a bit of free time and in that time I usually like to workout or try new things. Occasionally my family and I go to bend on the weekends. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a property that Is not heavily populated by cars on the road. I also have three varying sized crates as well as two dogs. My dogs are let out every 1-2 hours. One of my dogs is crated when I am not home and my other dog does not have to be crated. In my clients home, I will care for their pets like my client would normally and I will ensure that their home is left clean.
About: I'm a quiet, mature professional who works from clients' homes during the day and loves spending quiet evenings with pets. I'm an especially good fit for animals who are used to lots of companionship, including those with retired or remote-working families. I prioritize prompt communication, regular photo updates, and a smooth, stress-free experience from booking through the end of your stay. I'm a non-smoker, don't drink, and take pride in leaving your home as clean—or cleaner—than I found it. I have seven years of experience with large dogs (including handling them on walks) and 2½ years of professional pet sitting experience with dogs, cats, and other animals. I've cared for pets with mobility challenges, leash reactivity, separation anxiety, chronic health conditions, and I especially enjoy caring for senior pets. For walks and drop-in visits, I offer a 15–20 minute video meet-and-greet before your first booking. I'm also happy to answer any questions by message! I work remotely and have flexibility for morning and evening walks, as well as daytime cuddles and play breaks. I coordinate with clients to ensure pet care is continuous, even if a return flight is delayed. I gather as much information as possible about an animal's routine, preferences, play styles or favorite games, and emotional and physical needs. I keep my client updated with photos and messages about their animal at the frequency they prefer, so they feel comfortable and confident that their animal is safe and happy.
About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and have worked with dogs from energetic puppies to older dogs that need more care and other medications. I’ve also been a dog and cat sitter for my neighbors. I am currently a junior in college so my schedule can be busy but I can usually make room every few hours in between and after classes I also work a couple nights a week but anywhere in between I’m pretty flexible. I cannot house any dogs in my home overnight, but if needed I can have them over during the day! I can give regular potty breaks and necessary walks when needed. Since I am a student full time I cannot travel further the 20-30 minutes during the week and up to an hour on weekends.
About: Hi! I’m a first year veterinary student at Oregon State University with a strong passion for animal care and years of hands on experience working with pets of all kinds. Before starting vet school, I worked as a veterinary technician at VCA Animal Hospital, where I gained valuable clinical skills and became comfortable administering injectables, giving oral medications, and providing attentive, high quality care to every animal I worked with. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every dog as if they were my own: prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. I grew up with both dogs and cats, so being around animals has always been a huge part of my life. While my schedule in vet school doesn’t currently allow me to have pets of my own, dog walking and pet care gives me the perfect opportunity to still spend time with animals and helping pet owners feel confident that their beloved companions are in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine and is something I genuinely enjoy. As a first year vet student, I use dog walks and visits as a refreshing break between classes and studying. It’s a great way for me to destress while still spending time doing what I love...caring for animals. I provide care in my clients’ homes to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow all instructions closely: feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications. While I currently have two cats in my apartment and am unable to host pets in my home, I’m very reliable with drop in visits and dog walking.
About: I’ve taken care of all different types of dogs, to my personal golden doodle to my aunties Great Dane. I also have 3 cats and and have had them from kittens to adults same for my dog, as I got when he was a puppy. I love to take my dog on walks and understand the importance of keeping your animals healthy with activity and attention! I pet sit for family and friends on occasions well as house sit. I also am a babysitter and the family’s have dogs that need to be taken care of while I’m gone as well! I am currently a first year student at Oregon State and looking for a way to make some extra money! That being said did rover over the summer and decided to continue it into Corvallis! I am currently taking a break from housesitting as I’m trying to get used to the dorm life but I am free to come feed/take care of your pets during the morning daytime and evenings!! I also love dog walking and it will be nice to hang out with some dogs/cats as I will miss my own as I’m away from home. I would be open to hours of your liking and week days and weekends since my class schedule pretty calm. How a typically care day will look would be up to my client/you. I will just follow your likings of what you want your pet care to look like. Stopping in will be me coming over at certain times to play with your dog/cat let them go potty, feed them and any other special request.
About: Nanny families have relied on me to care for their fur family members for years! I've learned they're just like little kiddos. Learning everything and wanting love and connection. I'm working full time during the week 8-4:30pm. Fridays are flexible and I can make a mid day if needed! Weekends are usually available just filled with chores so I would love to connect if this schedule works for you! Learning the pups environment and keeping clear communication on care instructions will ensure the happiness and safety of any pup and guarantee confidence of their owners.

“Shelby did an awesome job! Went above and beyond and sent so many pictures. We have a husky and she brushed out her undercoat without being asked. Would definitely rebook with her again :)”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
“Whitney was warm and welcoming, and Zoey loved her and her dogs!! Whitney communicated with me and sent me pictures of Zoey during her stay which gave me peace of mind! I will use Whitney again! 😊”
“Maddy is the best sitter! She was so welcoming to Milo and took such good care of him! He came back happy, healthy and clearly having had a blast with Maddy and her family. Would absolutely rebook!”
“Our pup was excited to see Chloe for his first stay and happy when we picked him up 5 days later! We appreciated the updates, photos, and video of how the stay was going. We were very comfortable having Chloe caring for our Kermit and hope he can stay again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and a few other animals all throughout my life. I had at least one pet in my home ever since I was 5! I can groom, bathe, walk, feed, and care for your pets needs. I am currently a college student and haven’t been around my own pets for a while, so I definitely miss playing with them. I have lots of free time, so I am very flexible and accommodating for all pet care! In my clients home, I’d be respectful of the space and tend only to their pets needs and follow all instructions. In my own home, I have a small apartment that would be perfect for small or medium sized pets to feel comfortable, with a nice grass park right across the street.
“Can I give more than 5 stars??? First time taking our dog, Bobby Lee, to a sitter and we couldn’t possibly be any happier…and Bobby Lee too! Elizabeth kept us updated daily on how he was doing, sent pictures, and communicated and a professional and prompt manner. Elizabeth was great with Bobby Lee, even teaching him some new tricks (really it was manners). She took great care of him as if he belonged to her. We are very grateful we found Elizabeth and will continue to use her to care for Bobby Lee whenever we are out of town.”
About: Have always had a love for dogs. Frequently walk, feed, and play with many dogs. Family and friends entrust me to care for their animals when away. Take pets out for frequent potty breaks and can crate dogs if needed. Able to restrain dogs when required and to clean up after them. Feed and take proper care of each animal. I have a sweet dog named Gouda who would love to have new friends to play with, so if your dog loves play dates they would be a perfect match!
“I can’t say enough kind words about Gayle and her housemate Seth! They welcomed my boys into their home on very short notice for an overnight stay and fun day of play with their sweet pup Sitka. Sitka was a peach and shared all her toys with my boys. They were like 3 peas in a pod! Gayles home is the ultimate pup set up! Very clean and organized, lots of room inside and out for everyone to run and play freely. She provided me with frequent updates and pics of the boys enjoying themselves and OH! The way they bonded with her housemate! They were so comfortable and enjoyed all the cuddle time he gave them! I was in town for work, but will be making it a point to ask gayle for watching them on future work trips. Thanks so much again!”
“I was apprehensive leaving our 5 year old Vizsla anywhere. Philly took him for a walk to bond. He sent lots of texts and pictures. He was able to accommodate drop off and pick up times as we changed both times. He let him on the furniture and sat in a chair just like at home. He understands a high energy dog with lots of walks and ball play. He works from home so Odie was never alone. Such a relief to know he was in good hands. . We will definitely use Philly again.”
“Natalia is a gem! We booked her kind of last minute for our senior dog and I’m so glad we found her. She was very responsive and asked if we had any special needs. She took great care of our dog and even took her with her on outdoor adventures and to work. She sent lots of sweet photos.”
About: I have always been “dog” person. I got my first dog when I was 5 and have had multiple dogs since. I was a dog walker for neighbors and friends during adolescence and my teen years. I will make sure your dog is well taken care of! I am currently of of work for the summer because I work for the school district. I have a lot of extra free time to occupy. I have a huge yard and a crate if needed! I also have an 11 year old who loves dogs and would love to interact with some new, friendly puppers.
“Sandy and her husband were very welcoming to our dogs, and us! We did a meet and greet first and she introduced her dogs to ours one at a time, and all went well. So nice to not have dogs in a crate or kennel the whole time you are gone, and with Sandy they get to hang out and run around with her 3 Golden Retrievers, inside and safely outside, which is fenced. She sent us pictures while we were gone, of each dog sleeping on the couch. Very accommodating for pick-up and drop-off as well.”
“Karlie was very flexible and easy to plan with. Her house is very dog friendly and her pup, Dresden, is a great playmate! Our dog didn’t care when we left at drop off because she was already having so much fun.”
