“Mack had a great time, made some new friends, and seemed very well cared for while with Mary and Family! I had great peace of mind knowing he did so well!, and fit in so well! The photos and videos were wonderful too! We will be back!”
“Tony was amazing! I received many updates and pictures throughout the days I was gone. Tons of stimulation and cuddles for our pups. I would definitely have them stay over with Tony again.”
“I can't recommend her enough! Leaving Stella while I was away was one of the hardest parts of my trip, but she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. It was obvious that she treated Stella as if she were her own. Throughout my entire trip, she kept me updated with frequent messages, photos, and videos of Stella, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seeing Stella happy, comfortable, and having fun made all the difference. She always took the time to let me know how Stella was doing, and I never had to wonder if she was okay. Stella came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was easy to see how much love, patience, and attention she received during her stay. Knowing that someone cared for her with so much affection meant the world to me. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, she is absolutely the person to choose. I would leave Stella with her again without a second thought, and I'm so grateful for the wonderful care she provided. Thank you for loving Stella and taking such amazing care of her while I was away it meant more to me than words can express!”
“Second time with Amy and Jeff, and the dogs were really excited to see Amy when we dropped them off. Dogs seemed really comfortable, and we got regular updates throughout the trip. Will definitely continue to use Amy’s services!”
“We are repeat clients and each time , they have always gone above and beyond when it comes to taking care of our pup. We get daily updates/ photos and if there is any issues they communicate very well. They are also extremely flexible and understanding. Our pup loves it there, he gets so excited when we get there and doesn’t want to leave. I highly recommend and will always use them in the future!”
“Overall, had a really great experience leaving my pup with Araceli! I happened to be gone two weekends in a row and I was really grateful to be able to have my dog in the same place. He really enjoyed playing with their dog and in their big yard! The only bummer is that both weekends I asked Araceli to give my puppy a specific supplement after dinner and that didn’t happen, even after I reminded her for the second weekend. She is very sweet and would work with her again!”
“This was our 2nd time boarding our dogs with Linda and Robert. Our dogs loved being with them. They almost didn't want to come home. They had plenty of room to run around and always had extra attention from Linda. Will definitely book with them again.”
“Melissa was super helpful by taking care of my manu last minute while I was visiting for a wedding! She showed me the area and there was lots of space and friends for manu to play with! I would highly recommend Melissa, she’s been great with giving me instructions and is very communicative!”
“Carolyn was the first sitter I booked using this app and I am thankful. You can tell she is an animal lover. Her dog is sweet and they have a backyard where the dogs can play. She was fantastic at communicating with me. I am also appreciative for her understanding when I was running late to pick up. My dog looked really happy while staying there. I will rebook when I am in need. Thank you, Carolyn.”
“Brianna took care of Ruger, our golden doodle for 4 days. This was Ruger’s first time being away from our family. Ruger was pretty nervous being away our home. Brianna was very patient & loving with him in her home. She kept us updated with picture. We appreciated the great communication. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for in home care for their furry babies.”
“Moira was awesome! She took such great care of Rufus, sent a lot of pictures every day and filled me in on how he was while I was away! She went above and beyond with the meet and greet, having Rufus explore the place before going there to stay. She took him on walks and made sure to have water available and a foldable bowl for any moment he needed to drink. She was thoughtful throughout every part! I highly recommend her and couldn’t be happier with my Rover experience. :)”
“Very communicative and understanding care takers. Sent daily pics and updates and were able to accommodate me and my pup with extended days of care when I was stranded at the airport with delayed and canceled flights.”
“Kristen and her partner are the best! We had our pup stay at their house while we traveled for the week. Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to. It was clear that our pup was happy at their home - large backyard to play in, lovely walks in the neighborhood, a space to hide upon hearing fireworks, lovely humans to keep him company. Highly recommend!!”
“Hailey and her family were so friendly, kind, and easy to work with. We met ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit, and Hailey was so thorough and asked great questions, which gave me a lot of confidence in leaving Willow with them. Willow had the best time while we were away. We will definitely book with Hailey again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Kimo is officially Connor's sitter. Connor usually stays with family for when my husband and I go out of town. We just moved to Portland just over a year and it's just the 3 of us, no family to watch him. I came on Rover and saw Kimo's profile and decided to message him. He responded very quickly and answered all my questions and concerns about leaving Connor with him, he made me feel very comfortable. Connor was with Kimo a week, and everyday he sent pictures, videos, and responded to my text immediately. I highly recommend Kimo to watch your fur baby/babies.”
“Dana and Mark really did a great job taking care of Jolene while I was away over Christmas. They sent regular photos of Jolene playing, or lounging around. Their space is great to host pets and they made me feel very confident that Jolene was enjoying her stay there. I highly recommend Dana and Mark to watch your dog.”

“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. My dad has always had multiple cats at home, and I currently have a playful kitten of my own, so I’m very familiar with all types of feline personalities — from independent adults to curious little ones. I’m patient, gentle, and detail-oriented when it comes to feeding, litter box care, and keeping routines consistent. Whether your cat loves playtime, cuddles, or quiet company, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I don’t have any cats currently but I’ve had them in the past. The one in the picture was my latest one. She has since passed and haven’t ventured back into the cat world. Everyone is different on how they take care of them so just let me know your routine and I will be able to care for them!
About: Hi, I’m Kelley! I’m a professional dog trainer with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. My journey started early. I began working at a veterinary office at just 15 years old as a kennel technician and assistant, where I built a strong foundation in animal care and behavior. From there, I expanded into training and spent 5 years in Hawaii working as a private contracted dog trainer, gaining extensive experience with a wide range of dogs and client needs. I mainly train basic to advanced obedience and service dog training but also have experience with training hunting/bird dogs and protection work. In 2020, I founded my own dog training business in Oregon, where I now provide customized, results-driven training programs. I work with dogs weekly through private sessions, as well as structured board-and-train programs. I also travel locally and to surrounding areas to support clients and ensure training carries over into real-life environments. I recently moved up to the WA side in Kalama. My property is fully set up with dogs in mind. I have a secure, fully fenced yard and dedicated training areas equipped with a wide variety of professional training tools. Dogs in my care receive structured training, enrichment, and appropriate socialization based on their individual temperament, goals, and needs. Whether your dog needs basic obedience, behavior modification, or a safe and structured place to stay while you’re away, I provide a reliable, experienced, and attentive approach to their care. I treat every dog like my own, focusing on building confidence, clear communication, and lasting results. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine since I run my dog training business full-time. My days are structured around the dogs in my care, including scheduled training sessions, exercise, enrichment, and rest time. Each dog follows a consistent routine that’s tailored to their individual needs-this can include structured walks, obedience training, socialization (when appropriate), and downtime to ensure they’re not overstimulated. Because I work from home and on my property, I’m able to provide constant supervision and hands-on care throughout the day. On a weekly basis, I rotate between private training sessions, board-and-train dogs, and client visits, so I’m always actively working with dogs in a structured and intentional way. This setup allows me to give each dog consistent attention, routine, and progress while they’re in my care. Care varies depending on the service, but all pets receive structured, attentive, and individualized care. In my home, dogs follow a consistent daily routine that includes exercise, training, enrichment, and rest. Because of my background as a professional trainer, I incorporate structure and clear communication into everything I do—whether that’s reinforcing good manners, working on specific training goals, or simply maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and are always supervised. Socialization is thoughtfully managed based on each dog’s temperament and comfort level. For board-and-train dogs, their stay includes daily hands-on training sessions tailored to their specific goals, along with structured routines that help build reliability and confidence. In clients’ homes, I aim to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible to reduce stress. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed, and any household rules the dog is used to. I also reinforce any training the owner is working on to maintain consistency. Across all services, my priority is safety, clear communication, and making sure each dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for.
“Beyond kind to both me and my kitty! Always on time, very attentive, and sent great updates and photos! Took the time to interact and play with my cat and always responded quick! Highly recommend!”
“Rebecca has done such an excellent job with our cat Frank. I will definitely use her services again. I can tell when I meet good people and Rebecca is just that! Thanks again Rebecca!”
“Kris was amazing in taking care of my cats while we were gone! I can’t say how much i appreciate that they’re loved and cared for when we aren’t there. 10/10 definitely recommend, and will use next time we’re away!”
“Can’t say enough good things about Brie! She looked after my cat while I was away for a few weeks. I have a camera and was able to watch Brie interacting with my cat. She lavished love and attention on him, and he obviously loved her. Absolutely recommend Brie and will use her for all my pet care in future! Thank you so much!”
About: Currently a part-time nurse looking to make a few extra bucks taking care of your fur babies. I am a dog mom, myself, and would love to drop in and take care of them or help them get their daily exercise!! Working part time and schedule can vary. If my calendar says I’m unavailable, please don’t hesitate to still reach out — I may be able to work out a time on that day with you. I try to be as flexible as I can 🐾😊 I can either drop in to check on and feed your pets, or I stay and give them some attention and time to get their energy out. I can also take them out on walks around the neighborhood! I love mixing it up with running/walking, as tolerated by the pups. I have more experience with dogs than cats, but I’m happy to stop in and check on them!🐱

I’m OK with either coming to your house or watching them at my house whatever works with you works with me as long as we’re on the same page

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors, freinds and family pets since I was 10 and it’s the best job in the world. Community Pet Babysitter. I am currently enrolled in college and work part time so I have plenty of time to be your adorable and furry babies best friend. :) I have a turtle and a hamster so your pet will have my full attention and I will follow your instructions and be the best care taker for your lil/big guy.
About: I know how sensitive some kitties can be, especially away from their pawrents. I work in a small animal vet clinic and help cats everyday. I can administer medications by pilling,injection or if they have a special mixed up meal that they need to get it down! I also give extra attention with pats and playtime!
“Malissa was great! I felt very comfortable leaving Jack in her care while out of town. She sent a daily message and pictures. I will definitely book her again if I need someone to stay with Jack again while I’m out of town.”
“Jamie was a great communicator and had a calm energy around my cat that’s been dealing with some stress. I came back to a clean home and very happy kitty! Communication and photos throughout her stay were also consistent. Thank you Jamie!”
“Sierra was responsive, friendly and arrived on time for each of 3 walks we booked. She took good care of our senior dog, sent pictures and was in good communication. Much appreciated!”
“Christina is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter and then some! My partner and I were gone for two weeks, and during that time Christina sent many updates and pictures of our cat Luna. She went above and beyond by sweeping up litter dust, watering our plants, taking out trash, and even threw away some old bouquets of flowers we had forgotten to take care of. When we got home, Luna was happy to see us, and it was clear she had been properly loved while we were gone. Christina is the BEST, and we will definitely bring her back to watch Lu the next time we’re on vacation. 10 out of 5 stars!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ariel

“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party. We appreciate them being so accommodating with the festivities ending a little later than expected. Our fur babies were obviously very comfortable in their home because they are so calm in their crates in the car at the moment. We will definitely leave our girls with Emily and Eric again when we are back in Vancouver!”
“So appreciate the responsive care that Dana and Mark provide to Sully! Sully has been able to ease into interacting with new humans and other pups; it’s been good for him and so great for me!”
“Tracy and her family did a wonderful of taking care of Ollie. He was very calm and not at all anxious when coming home and loved all the attention he was given. I will be leaving him with her on a regular basis.”
“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!”
“This is my first time using Rover, and I am a first time dog owner. I needed to schedule something very last minute and Emily was very flexible working with me and Daisy. She did a great job and kept in contact about her stay. She is very friendly and is very well experienced in this business.”
“Renae is the absolute best! She’s kind and flexible and a dog lover but also knowledgeable and intentional about how the pups interact. I know Beans is safe AND having a blast whenever he’s there!”
“Storm takes a bit of time to get comfortable in new environments with new people, but she seemed to settle in easily with Gil and Peaches! We are so thankful they are patient with her separation anxiety and welcome her on daycare days!”
“She was so awesome! We didn’t worry about our dog at all while she was watching him. She sent lots of pictures and I could see he was having a great time! We will definitely book again when we are in the area and we would recommend! Thank you so much Maryorie! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Tashi is doing well! Looks forward to going to doggie daycare with Brianna. Today, he tried to sneak out to the car when I left! He loves being around the kids and other dogs. Thank you for taking great care of him!”
“I used Araceli's day care for my boy! She had a few other pups in her care for him to play with (which was exactly what I was hoping for). He returned to me tail wagging and went right to sleep when we got home 😁”
“Frank enjoys spending his time with Don (and Hunter) very much. He gets excited when we pull up to the house, because he knows he's in for a day of fun and VIP treatment. I highly recommend Don and Melodie for both Daycare and Boarding.”
“James takes very good care of your furry friends. My dog, Hal, had all his needs met while I was out of town. I was periodically updated with how the doggy care was going, including photos updates. Will be returning to James dog services in the future and referring to friends/family. Thank you James.”
“Jennifer and her husband were great. They are conveniently located by the freeway and right next to a Banfield Vet which my dogs go to. She sent me pictures during the day and my dogs were exhausted by the time I picked them up from playing with her dogs. I'll definitely be using Jennifer again when I'm in the area.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Ariel
About: I am 31 years old, pretty active. Dogs around me usually get what they want. I spoil them more than i spoil myself. They are family so I will treat them like family. I am a stay at home mom & I lam easy to get a hold of. If you want pictures everyday, i will provide you pictures everyday. I love hikes and going for walks. Let me know your needs and I will follow your rules. All I ask is that I meet you & your dog beforehand so we can make sure that your dog is okay with me & won’t think I’m a stranger just walking in the house. I am a huge animal lover! Can’t wait to meet you and the pup/pups! I have two dogs of my own that I adore! I’ve had them both since they were pups. They are my first kiddos. I take care of them daily. I follow all rules that are given to me. If they love all the pets then I will love them with all I got. If they love fetch, then I’ll throw the ball until they get tired.
About: I have 3 dogs ranging from 1-10 1/2 years of age. We have done the puppy stage three times so I’m used to that and willing to help. I know how stressful it can be if you need to go out of town and still have a puppy at home that needs a little more attention, let me help you with this! I’m not afraid of any dogs I just need to meet them first before agreeing to a job just so that we know it’ll be a good fit. I’m currently working full time 12 hr days. So I will not schedule myself when I’m working unless of course this works for you. I’m just looking to see if I can help some people while they travel or need someone to come and check on their pets while they are away. I currently live on 2.5 acres so having dogs come to my house will not be a good fit. We have 3 dogs and sometimes sit for family and friends and their dogs come over and we closely watch them while outside so they don’t venture off into the woods. Right now I’m just looking to see if I can help with checking in on pets or walking them or even possibly house sitting if need be. I know how important routine and familiarity is important so I would like to meet the pets with the owners before agreeing to a job and this way we can make sure the pets are comfortable with me and also we can go over dos and don’ts with your pets.
“Brie is incredible! We feel so grateful to have found her. She provides a very high level of care to our dog and is excellent about communicating important and cute details with us. Her level of work ethic, attention to detail, and emotional intelligence are beyond impressive. Brie is a rare type of person that emits joy, care, and compassion into everything she does. We are forever grateful to her for being so good with our little dude!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life — my mom has always had dogs and my dad has always had cats, so I’ve learned how to care for and connect with all kinds of pets from a young age. Right now, I have a playful kitten of my own, and my mom has two dogs that I help care for whenever I visit. I’m patient, responsible, and always attentive to each pet’s unique routine and personality. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet company, I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for exactly how their owner would want. You can always count on me for reliable care, consistent updates, and genuine love for every furry friend I look after. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life — I have a kitten at home and spend time with my mom’s dogs regularly, so feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles are built into my routine. My work schedule is flexible enough to allow plenty of time for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. Whether it’s morning visits or evening check-ins, I make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel comfortable and safe. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to playtime and bedtime — so everything feels familiar. I take extra care to keep their environment clean, secure, and stress-free, and I always communicate with owners so they know their pets are happy and well cared for. I take pride in following every detail of your pet’s care instructions — from feeding schedules to favorite walks and play routines. In your home, I make sure everything stays tidy and that your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I always provide updates and communication so you know your pets are happy, healthy, and cared for exactly how you’d want.
“My dog is a little timid with new people, but Renata takes such good care of him! She’s patient and kind and I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with him. She’s reliable and great with communication. Highly recommend her, especially for nervous/shy puppers. 🩵”

About: I had pets in the family my whole childhood. Love em all, Dogs, Cats either way. Happy to help with a weekly walk, a drop in visit, or house sitting for a long vacation. Whatever I can do to help you and your pets, let me know! I am currently in a bit of a life transition and I am working minimal hours for now, so I have a lot of free time. I would like to fill that extra time with something productive that helps me financially. I love animals, so being able to spend time with people's pets and benefit their lives as well, would be a wonderful way to do it. If you are leaving town and looking for someone who will show your pet the love they deserve and give them 100 percent of their attention, give me a call. At this point I am only available for doing walks, drop ins and mainly house sitting jobs. I am currently living with my family in Ridgefield WA, but I am trying to get into an apartment in the next few months. The pets that I have had in my life over the past 15 years or so were very loved. They were my family, my friends and were treated as such.
About: I’ve taken care of big mutts my whole life. My family has only ever rescued dogs. I love teaching my dogs tricks and hanging out with them outside.

The second one of them wants to play outside they get the opportunity to.

About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle.

I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.
About: Hey there fury friends and owners! I'm Bailey and I love animals, I have car, dog, bird and farm animal experience. I would love to help youtake care of yours. I'm so looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for stopping by my page. My availability currently is pretty open. I’m available part-time on a weekly service-perhaps every couple days if needed. It all depends on the location and services needed. I’m unsure how many pets I’m willing to take on at the moment. I can’t help but speak to an animal in high pitch tones as well as full on conversation with them like they’re answering me! Anything to get a head twist or a butt wiggle.
“Rebecca was great! I asked for her help with dog walking since I work at home I don’t have all the time to dedicate.Not only did she walk them but she also work with my dogs on some training. I felt like she really knew what she was doing. She gave me a lot of photos and videos so I felt super secure about what happened during the walk. She also provided me with an update on how to walk went.”
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats ever since I was very little and I have always loved taking care of them. I live at home with my parents and I have lots of experience watching our two dogs and cat for weeks at a time while they are traveling. (Note: neither my parents, or pets will be anywhere near your pets, as they are going to be in a separate part of the house. The house also has a huge backyard, sitting on over an acre with tall fences. I also keep plenty of toys on hand so you can be sure your pets are getting the love and care they deserve. I currently work from home and have a very flexible. schedule all throughout the weekdays and weekends so your pets will be cared for during their entire stay. I also do not leave our own pets unattended for more than a couple hours so the same can be expected for yours as well. Pets can expect over an acre of enclosed backyard, so plenty of room to run around and play as needed. Bathroom breaks will be given at least once every 1.5 hours - 2 hours and will be supervised the entire time as is standard with our own pups. We also have a cat and two small dogs in the house, but they will be upstairs and away from your pets during the visit.
About: I've spent years hanging out with all kinds of dogs and have had a few of my own for years, so I know what makes them tick. Whether it's a bunch of playful puppies or a sweet old dog, I've taken care of them all. I have experience with newborn litters and taken care of my own elderly dogs. Because of this, I can give your dog the perfect care they need to feel happy and loved, no matter how young or old they are! I currently work a full time job but I get fridays-Sunday off. During the weekends I’m free to take your pup on walks or even house sit while you’re gone enjoying some me time. Weekdays I usually have short days and can be flexible with my hours. I have a fenced back yard, and a lovely park not even 10 min away. They can spend time with me inside and outside my home.
About: I just recently moved to Oregon from Las Vegas. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from high energy puppies to mellow seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with pets whether we’re out on walks or hanging out at home. I’m big on clear communication, keeping routines consistent, and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m new to Oregon and have full availability right now, including weekdays, weekends, and evenings. Happy to be flexible based on your dog or cat’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving meds, or creating a calm space, I do my best to keep things stress free. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and honest check-ins.

“Tony was amazing! I received many updates and pictures throughout the days I was gone. Tons of stimulation and cuddles for our pups. I would definitely have them stay over with Tony again.”
“Overall, had a really great experience leaving my pup with Araceli! I happened to be gone two weekends in a row and I was really grateful to be able to have my dog in the same place. He really enjoyed playing with their dog and in their big yard! The only bummer is that both weekends I asked Araceli to give my puppy a specific supplement after dinner and that didn’t happen, even after I reminded her for the second weekend. She is very sweet and would work with her again!”
“This was our 2nd time boarding our dogs with Linda and Robert. Our dogs loved being with them. They almost didn't want to come home. They had plenty of room to run around and always had extra attention from Linda. Will definitely book with them again.”
“Melissa was super helpful by taking care of my manu last minute while I was visiting for a wedding! She showed me the area and there was lots of space and friends for manu to play with! I would highly recommend Melissa, she’s been great with giving me instructions and is very communicative!”

We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for in home care for their furry babies.”
“Moira was awesome! She took such great care of Rufus, sent a lot of pictures every day and filled me in on how he was while I was away! She went above and beyond with the meet and greet, having Rufus explore the place before going there to stay. She took him on walks and made sure to have water available and a foldable bowl for any moment he needed to drink. She was thoughtful throughout every part! I highly recommend her and couldn’t be happier with my Rover experience. :)”
“Kristen and her partner are the best! We had our pup stay at their house while we traveled for the week. Her communication was excellent- providing updates with photos every day, it was something our family always looked forward to. It was clear that our pup was happy at their home - large backyard to play in, lovely walks in the neighborhood, a space to hide upon hearing fireworks, lovely humans to keep him company. Highly recommend!!”
“Hailey and her family were so friendly, kind, and easy to work with. We met ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit, and Hailey was so thorough and asked great questions, which gave me a lot of confidence in leaving Willow with them. Willow had the best time while we were away. We will definitely book with Hailey again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Kimo is officially Connor's sitter. Connor usually stays with family for when my husband and I go out of town. We just moved to Portland just over a year and it's just the 3 of us, no family to watch him. I came on Rover and saw Kimo's profile and decided to message him. He responded very quickly and answered all my questions and concerns about leaving Connor with him, he made me feel very comfortable. Connor was with Kimo a week, and everyday he sent pictures, videos, and responded to my text immediately. I highly recommend Kimo to watch your fur baby/babies.”
“Dana and Mark really did a great job taking care of Jolene while I was away over Christmas. They sent regular photos of Jolene playing, or lounging around. Their space is great to host pets and they made me feel very confident that Jolene was enjoying her stay there. I highly recommend Dana and Mark to watch your dog.”
“My dog is so shy around strangers, but Kathy really knew how to treat her. I didn't worry and was able to enjoy our get-away. I've already booked another stay with Kathy.”
“James took great care of our senior dog while we were traveling. It was our first time using Rover so I was nervous to leave our dog who’s really old and sedentary but James made the process easy and seamless. He was patient and accommodating and sent frequent updates and pictures. Would use James again!”
“Leah and Chris were amazing! It was so obvious our boys were having a blast with them and that they loved them as their own. We got daily updates with amazing photos of the dogs and saw they were being regularly walked and paid attention to. 100% will book with them again.”
“I had to have surgery and needed someone to watch my boy for a month. Maryorie was FANTASTIC! It was such a relief to know he was taken care of and gave me the grace to be able to focus on healing instead of worrying. I HIGHLY recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“She is really nice, and very kind. Our dog stayed with her two nights and got very comfortable and exciting time. We , our family like her professional support very much and can trust. Unfortunately we live far from this location, not much opportunity to use again. But hopefully we would like to come back again when having a chance.”
“Cynthia was absolutely amazing with Eddie! She was very communicative and made me feel very at ease with the drop off and pick ups. I recommend her for boarding and I'll be booking again I'm the future!”
