“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”
“Daniela was fantastic! She watched my two springer spaniels over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos of the pups having a great time with their new dog buddy Ranier. I couldn't have felt more confident that my dogs were being well cared for! Thank you Daniela! We'll definitely be back”
“Garrett and Monica were loving hosts to Jake - our energetic Doodle. We received plenty of updates and photos which helped reassured us while away. I recommend them.”
“Heather was absolutely amazing with Biggie and Peaches! She made them feel at home. Also took time to accommodate to their schedule. Will definitely be calling her again for Biggie and Peaches.”
“Abigail was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and I needed someone last minute and she was great with Huckleberry. She communicated great and sent pictures throughout his visit. He loved it there!”
“Hannah is a exelent with dogs, a very loving ❤️ family, I'm very happy with her, she sent pictures and videos of my dog while I was on vacation 😀 she took very good care of my dog 🐕.”
“Julianne and Ragen let Milo into the center of their lives for ten days while I traveled. He got lots of lap time, snuggles, treats, walks, and got to sleep on their bed, which made him comfortable when I couldn't be with him. They noticed a scabby wound and messaged, asking my permission to treat it; it healed well. Daily, I got a report on Milo; many days a pic, too. This was only the second time I was away from him this long. I was privileged to feel he was so safe and loved. It let me enjoy my trip without worry. Julianne and Ragen have had their own small dogs. They knew how to care for Milo and did it well!”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Alicia took such great care of our dog when we were away! He came back looking so happy and well taken care of. Great communication and sends awesome updates as well.”
“Dorothea and Richard took wonderful care of my elder dog. Their place is great for dogs and their dogs are very friendly. I will be asking them to take care of my dog again.”
“Serena and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 4 month old puppy. She was given lots of attention and walks each day. And the update messages and pictures were a great way of keeping in touch during our first time away from this new member of our family. Thank you for making us feel comfortable with our choice of sitter!”
About: I have many years of pet care experience as I was raised around animals all my life providing dependable, compassionate care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. I work Monday through Thursday, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pet before, after and between work. On my days off, I have even more time to provide walks, playtime, and personalized attention, so your pet will always receive the love and care they deserve. Pets are welcome to freely roam throughout my home in a safe, comfortable environment. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in their crate, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel secure, loved, and at home during their stay.
“Anika was very flexible and cared so well for Bruce. She sent several pictures every day and Bruce couldn't be happier. On the walk home he kept looking back for her or perhaps her dog Maisy! Anika is very welcoming and has a beautiful home with a yard for the doggies to play in! I would definitely think of Anika again next time I go out of town.”
“My dog loved her stay with Jennifer! After an initial meet-and-greet, my dog was very excited to return and stay for a few days. I will definitely be booking with Jennifer in the future.”
“Herschel had a great stay with Susan! She was easy to make plans with and asked lots of questions about his care before his stay. I could tell she really wanted to make sure he was well taken care of. Her home has a safe outdoor area that he can run around in. He can be a handful but she did a great job with him!”
“Kiera was very friendly, communicative and a great doggie sitter for my daisy pup ? .. I would definitely leave my pup on her care again.. I can tell she really enjoyed what she does and do it with passion and responsibility.. thank you Kiera I know my baby daisy was very happy with you ?☺️”

“Denise & her husband were wonderful with Henry. They gave him lots of love and snuggles, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been well cared for. Denise will always be our first pick for our boarding needs!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and all kinds of animals since I was little, so I’m confident handling pets with different needs and personalities. I have experience giving medications, supporting both puppies and senior pets, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’ve also helped my mom with her Rover clients, so I’m already familiar with providing reliable, loving, and professional pet care. Your pets will always be treated like family. As a college student, I have plenty of breaks and free time throughout the day to focus on your pet’s needs. I’m also studying pre-vet, so caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. Your pup will get lots of attention, consistency, and care built right into my routine. I love walking dogs and have a lot of patience for different temperaments, so I’m comfortable working with shy, energetic, or strong-willed pups. When I’m hired for dog walking, I make sure your dog gets a safe, structured walk with plenty of sniff time, exercise, and positive attention. For drop-ins or house sitting, I keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible—feeding on schedule, giving medications if needed, sticking to their usual potty times, and offering lots of play, cuddles, and reassurance. I also keep your home clean, tidy, and secure while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved the whole time you’re gone.
“Kailee is the best. She stayed at our house and took care of our three cat. Two who take a pill twice a day. She sent photos and updates. We had a late flight and Kalie left the lights on for us and collected the mail without us asking. We highly recommend her. She is awesome!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 13. Whether it was my own while my parents were gone or friends and neighbors as I got older. I have cared for both really active dogs that need to run all the time and older slower pets that need a lot of attention to details. I am currently a student at Western Oregon University enjoying my summer break back home. So I am available any time as I can create my own schedule. I can’t keep pets here but I am willing and able to do anything needed whether it is crating or making sure they are properly leashed if need be. I can also just watch as they run around!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! I currently own two Australian shepherds and 7 cats. I have a good amount of training in how to train dogs especially puppies and have experience with high energy dogs. I believe animals are made by God to be treated with love and value. I love walking dogs, visiting them, caring for cats & loving on them. I understand how to greet animals respectfully and make them comfortable. I’m home most of the time so I have time to come by easily. I have a car so I’m able to quickly get to a walk or care job. I love dogs and cats to be right with me and treat them like members of the family. I love to pet them and play with them in a way that is emotionally and physically satisfying to them.
“Jennifer has been wonderful with Winnie. She walks and plays with her during her drop in times and Winnie gets a break from the crate. I feel comfortable knowing she is in good hands. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Danielle was everything we hoped for and more, ensuring our cat was visited daily (even on Christmas Day). She sent darling videos and photos and he was obviously given a ton of love. We feel such relief knowing she will be part of our travel plans when we need a cat sitter.”
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was little! I have a huge soft spot for all animals. My family and friends always rely on me to care for their houses and pets! With a sudden and unexpected loss of a loved one recently, I decided to take some time off and be more focused on myself. That being said, my schedule is extremely open and flexible! I have a very high energy boarder collie so working with energetic dogs are not a problem for me whatsoever! I understand every animal should be getting their energy out and enjoy their lives!
About: I’ve pet sat for a long time and have had many dogs while growing up. My home currently has two kittens (they stay in a room upstairs not near dogs) and 2 dogs. An old bull dog and a 2 y/o German Shepard. All of our pets are up to date on shots and are neutered/spayed. Our Shepard has a lot of health issues (nothing contagious) she just needs special food that we cook and lots of attention so having her for two years has made me pay close attention to how the behavior of a pet shows how they are feeling and I have dog beds, crates, treats, toys and love for all breeds and sizes In my home. My husband and I play with our dogs every day and take them for hikes multiple times a week everything in our home and car is dog friendly! I work nights so I’m mostly looking to just walk dogs during the day. I’m not doing any cars in my home currently. I can do feedings, walks and playtime! I will do care for pets in their home but not my home. Lately one of my dogs has been less than pet friendly and it’s always better to be safe than sorry.
About: Hi! I’m Allyse I’m a responsible, animal-loving sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m naturally calm, organized, and attentive to details — which means your pup gets consistent routines, timely meals, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I’m great at following instructions and happy to stick closely to your dog’s normal schedule, whether that includes medications, special feeding needs, or just extra cuddle time. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize safety, clear communication, and peace of mind for pet parents. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. Whether you’re looking for short-term care or a regular sitter, I’d love to help care for your furry family member! I work from home so I am available all day. If I need to step out your dog will only be left alone for two hours max. I have a fully fenced in yard. Plenty of room to run and play! We live in a house so there is also room inside where the dogs can play as well.
About: I have a lot of love for animals. I am interested in dog walking or taking care of dogs/cats when you just need a little vacation to yourself or a busy day ahead! I have two years of experience with dog sitting. I have taken dogs on walks, stayed over night at the owner's home, fed them, play with them, and clean up after them when they have accidents. I have also taken dogs to vet appointments. I am not afraid of any type of dogs. They have this effect on me that makes me fall in love with them or feel better when I'm feeling down. I’m currently off of my main job as a special needs aide at a middle school as it is summer time! I have a lot of free time right now. I always want pets to feel safe and secure when they’re with me. I like using a soft voice with dogs, unless told to be more stern by the owners. I have experience with dogs that have been abused and are more timid, I usually sit on the floor with them until they trust me enough to come up to me.

“My dog is always smiling ear to ear and exhausted after playing at Amy's house. Amy is incredibly conscience of how dogs are interacting and making sure they don't play too rough. I never have to worry when my dog is with Amy.”

“Garrett was AWESOME! He handled my three Siberian Huskies with ease. His attention to the dogs was top notch (especially monitoring their heat levels during this warmer weather) and his photo updates were adorable and very appreciated. Highly Suggest!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, with care needs ranging from walking to diabetic care. And I am open to learning any new skills if needed. I work an alternating schedule but have many off days so I have lots of availability. I try to keep my schedule updated but if you need other days feel free to message me. I have a townhouse with a small fenced yard and a 8 x 10 kennel out back. I have one 3 year old lab who loves new friends. We go on a nightly walk every night.
About: I've taken care of my neighbors' dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs since I was a young teen, and have had multiple furry best friends of my own over the past 15 years. I'm highly qualified to provide the best possible care for your beloved friend, including seniors and pets with special needs. I'm a volunteer dog-walker at the local animal shelter, and have the ability to exercise high-energy dogs. I'd love to keep your dog healthy, active and socialized while you're away! My schedule is open and available for pet-sitting or dog-walking any day of the week! 24/7 available care when I overnight sit at your home In your home, I can stay overnight or make 1 house visit per day. I stick to the schedule you provide for feeding and walking so that your pet needs to make as few adjustments as possible to their daily routine.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and I know how stressful it can be to worry they aren’t getting the attention and care they need. I want to help alleviate your concerns and give your pup what they deserve! I work a flexible job from home and can easily fit your pet’s care into my schedule. Don’t see the time you need on my availability? Please feel free to reach out anyway! I work in the medical field and pride myself on my integrity and dependability. I promise to always do my best for you and your pet.
About: I recently had two rescue heeler mixes. We competed in agility, and did herding, barn hunt, and parkour. I loved to hike, walk, run, and be active with my dogs. Now that they're gone, I have an open space in my heart for time with yours. I walk and run or hike several days out of the week. I'd love to bring your well-behaved dog along for their enjoyment and my company! Because I live up a steep gravel driveway, I prefer to meet in town or at your place to take your dog for a walk or run. But if they need to come to my place for sitting, I have a fenced yard with some agility equipment. I also have a dog door, to let them have free access to my .5 acre fenced yard. I do have a cat, so if your dog comes to my place, it will have to get along with her.
“Taylor was just the best!!! She had no problem accommodating our schedule and sent updates and photos/videos throughout the day. Molly absolutely had a great time (she came home and passed out) which is whats most important!! Would absolutely recommend Taylor and will definitely being reaching out anytime we need a sitter! Thank you so much!!! ☺️”
“Kaelin was amazing with our 10 week puppy Midnight!! Midnight is shy around new people but warmed up to Kaelin quickly and had the best time playing and hanging out with her all day, I know that we’ll be booking her again as soon as we can especially since she sent pictures and updates to us that really helped our anxiety with leaving her for the first time!!”

About: Hi, I’m Kimber! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I currently share my home with six amazing dogs – so I know firsthand how much love, patience, and responsibility it takes to give pets the best care possible. Because of my experience as a multi-dog owner, I’m comfortable with all types of personalities – from playful pups full of energy to seniors who need a gentler touch. I also have hands-on experience caring for special needs and sick dogs, including giving medications, managing health routines, and providing extra comfort when they’re not feeling their best. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, medical care, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own pack. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and cared for, and I promise to give them the same attention and love that I give my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾 Pet care is truly part of my everyday life. With six dogs of my own, caring for animals is second nature to me—I plan my days around feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle breaks. I’m used to managing different routines, personalities, and even special needs, so fitting pet care into my schedule feels natural. Whether it’s daily exercise, giving medications, or just providing comfort and companionship, making pets feel loved and cared for is something I prioritize every single day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their established routines so pets feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow feeding instructions, exercise schedules, and any medication needs. I also spend plenty of time giving attention, play, and affection—because I know companionship is just as important as care. I always treat a client’s home with the same respect I give my own, making sure everything stays tidy and secure. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel completely at ease while I’m there.
“I last minute needed a new dog walker for my two pups, and Jordan was able to jump right in and become that awesome, trusted, & reliable person we needed. He is great with my two high energy dogs, and we appreciate all his care, help, & time.”

About: I was born into a house with 9 dogs. My mother has devoted her life to animal rescue and I have been helping and volunteering since I was 6. I absolutely adore animals and would love to look after yours! I’ve volunteered at numerous animal shelters at different places I’ve lived in the past and I have helped many different personalities of dogs and cats. I currently am working part-time, so I have a lot of time to spend with the babies! My schedule is flexible, so I should be able to accommodate any times or days you would need! I have been around animals my whole life and am good at being intuitive with their needs. If they are snuggle bugs, I’ll snuggle up with them! If they need play or to be left alone, I’ll act accordingly.
About: Hello! My name is Samantha and I am 26 years old. I joined rover to earn some extra money while spending some time with furry (or non furry) friends. I have volunteered at local shelters and have watched the animals of my family and friends since I was about 10 years old. I treat each and every animal with the love, care, and respect that they deserve. I am very compassionate and take the time to tend to one’s animals as if they were my own. My rates are flexible depending on the animal(s), and the situation. I am able to flex my schedule around your needs! I work full time but I am able to work remotely if needed and can take breaks throughout the day if necessary. I often do not watch animals in my home due to my 5 fur babes. However, depending on the situation, and the animal, a short stay in my home may be an option. Hopefully I can be your next pet or house sitter. I have recommendations upon request. I am looking forward to speaking with you soon!!
“Great communication and she is so good with my pup! My dog has a tough time leaving me and has anxiety separation. Carlie was so patient with her and was amazing in getting her comfortable on walks. I can tell Carlie has valuable experience with dogs and I feel so happy that my dog is safe with Carlie while I am at work.”
About: I've had pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to small mammals, reptiles, and birds. Growing up in a miniature menagerie taught me responsibility and how to properly care for animals and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Reading animal behavior and connecting with each pet's personality is second nature to me. Whether it's maintaining your pet's familiar routine, providing engaging playtime, or offering companionship, I prioritize making your pets feel secure and loved in your absence. I structure my daily and weekly routine around pet care, ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given attention. Each day, I set aside time for feeding, cleaning up after them, and making sure they have companionship. Weekly, I restock supplies and adjust my schedule as needed to meet their needs. I prioritize each pet’s comfort and personality, letting them set the pace for interactions. When entering a space, I allow the pet to approach me first and get down to their eye level to establish trust. I respect a cat’s independence and let them engage on their terms. When walking dogs, I exercise patience, allowing them to sniff and explore at their own pace, as I’ve learned this helps build trust and confidence. My approach ensures that every pet feels safe, respected, and cared for.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love playing with and getting to know them. I have worked with a couple of friends in high school dog sitting for family friends and relatives and have enjoyed every second I spend with their pets. I recognize and take into consideration the age, physical abilities, and daily habits of the pets I take care of and base my care and activities around those. I am currently living up in Portland working for a state campaign but I will occasionally be traveling down to my other home in Grants Pass for jobs and building projects for my family . I greet every pet I meet with respect, care, and love and will calmly approach any new animal I meet with the intention of building trust with that animal and letting them know I can take care of them and love them and that they can trust me.
About: Enjoy animals, enjoy walking and entertaining, having fun, checking out the walking area, enjoy being out in the weather. Seeing how the local area is. I am current picking and scheduling my time and travel when an opportunity is given, walking and fresh air, scenery and sun is a must I have a fenced in back yard, for freedom roaming aroun plus We take our dogs so many places, they are out traveling fire babies. We give them numerous walks through the day and early evening
About: I’ve had cats and dogs for the past 30 plus years. I’ve walked them, bathed them, made their food, cared for them when sick and loved them. I have a lovely, safe walking neighborhood for dogs, a fenced yard, and everything I would need for a dog to have a cozy stay with me. I currently work 100% remote and have time during the day for walks and playtime. I have dog beds for nap time and toys for them to play with. I also own several leashes. I have a fenced yard that’s very safe. I don’t plan on watching more than one dog at a time. That way I can devote all my time to the one who’s staying with me.

“Amy took our Great Pyranees for three days. Our GP is a new rescue, so she is not very predictable and still hasn't been to a groomer.... but Amy managed to understand her and love on her. She sent updates and pictures regularly and treated our girl like part of her family. Amy's flexibility was valuable behond words for us, given the circumstances. 100% recommendation 💛💛💛”
“Daniela was fantastic! She watched my two springer spaniels over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos of the pups having a great time with their new dog buddy Ranier. I couldn't have felt more confident that my dogs were being well cared for! Thank you Daniela! We'll definitely be back”
“Garrett and Monica were loving hosts to Jake - our energetic Doodle. We received plenty of updates and photos which helped reassured us while away. I recommend them.”
“Abigail was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and I needed someone last minute and she was great with Huckleberry. She communicated great and sent pictures throughout his visit. He loved it there!”
“Hannah is a exelent with dogs, a very loving ❤️ family, I'm very happy with her, she sent pictures and videos of my dog while I was on vacation 😀 she took very good care of my dog 🐕.”
“Julianne and Ragen let Milo into the center of their lives for ten days while I traveled. He got lots of lap time, snuggles, treats, walks, and got to sleep on their bed, which made him comfortable when I couldn't be with him. They noticed a scabby wound and messaged, asking my permission to treat it; it healed well. Daily, I got a report on Milo; many days a pic, too. This was only the second time I was away from him this long. I was privileged to feel he was so safe and loved. It let me enjoy my trip without worry. Julianne and Ragen have had their own small dogs. They knew how to care for Milo and did it well!”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Alicia took such great care of our dog when we were away! He came back looking so happy and well taken care of. Great communication and sends awesome updates as well.”
“Dorothea and Richard took wonderful care of my elder dog. Their place is great for dogs and their dogs are very friendly. I will be asking them to take care of my dog again.”
About: I have many years of pet care experience as I was raised around animals all my life providing dependable, compassionate care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. I work Monday through Thursday, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pet before, after and between work. On my days off, I have even more time to provide walks, playtime, and personalized attention, so your pet will always receive the love and care they deserve. Pets are welcome to freely roam throughout my home in a safe, comfortable environment. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in their crate, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel secure, loved, and at home during their stay.
“Anika was very flexible and cared so well for Bruce. She sent several pictures every day and Bruce couldn't be happier. On the walk home he kept looking back for her or perhaps her dog Maisy! Anika is very welcoming and has a beautiful home with a yard for the doggies to play in! I would definitely think of Anika again next time I go out of town.”
“My dog loved her stay with Jennifer! After an initial meet-and-greet, my dog was very excited to return and stay for a few days. I will definitely be booking with Jennifer in the future.”
“Kiera was very friendly, communicative and a great doggie sitter for my daisy pup ? .. I would definitely leave my pup on her care again.. I can tell she really enjoyed what she does and do it with passion and responsibility.. thank you Kiera I know my baby daisy was very happy with you ?☺️”
“Rosie had a great time at Gordan's place and hung out with the other dogs and her new "humans" during her seven-day stay. Gordan provided a few well appreciated photos of her as well.”
“Ruth was just what I was looking for! Difficult to leave a cherished pet - I needed to be away for 5 nights and hesitant to try Rover. However couldn’t have been happier with her daily photos, comments and attention to my little white Maltipoo, Gracie! Lovely home and setting- a long drive to Grants Pass but SO happy with the care! I will use Ruth again, for sure!!!”
“Aimee and Andrew have a huge fenced yard, a playful Doodle and 2 great kids that made me feel like Jackson was visiting friends, rather than just being boarded. I really appreciated daily updates and cute photos that let me know my Jackson was having a great time. Highly recommend to anyone needing a dog loving family setting for their dog when they travel.”
