“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Tony is fantastic, My puppy loved her time with with him as shown in Tony's picture updates. Tony is easy to work with, flexible and friendly. We will definitely be returning.”
“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.”
“Our two dogs had a great weekend with Melissa! They loved being able to hang out outdoors in their own private space. They seemed very happy when we picked them up!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“I’m glad we chose Shane to watch our dog on 4th of July. He is a nervous boy around fireworks and gets scared. He seemed comfortable right on drop off and excited to play with another dog. He was tired when he got back home from all the play- and that’s a good thing. Would definitely book again.”
“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.”
“Left my pups (and houseplants) with Jenny while I was gone on vacation over the Christmas holidays. She was great, and the pups were pooped when I brought them home! I happened to have a vet appointment for Max that I'd scheduled a couple of days after my vacation. Both dogs had lost a few pounds, yeah! And Max's back right knee was doing very well, no swelling, heat or favoring. Jenny and her family did a great job with keeping an eye on him and keeping him from overdoing it. They were also very understanding when I managed to screw up my pickup date. I'd inadvertently written down my return flight on the day before it was actually scheduled, so I'd scheduled their pickup time for the next day, just about at the time when my flight was supposed to depart. And of course, the flight was delayed about two and a half hours. Luckily, I was able to pick them up about 5 hours after the designated pickup time. I will definitely be looking to her for boarding again in the future!”
“Grandpa’s Doggy Den is the best! Steve took great care of our dog Chester during a one week stay. He kept us updated and sent photos and videos which we were happy to receive. Steve’s love of dogs is obvious by the way he cares for each dog individually making sure their needs are met and they enjoy their stay and have fun! I highly recommend Grandpa’s Doggy Den!”
“Kristi is one of the kindest thoughtful sitters I’ve found. She’s responsive and takes such good care of my dog that he doesn’t want to come home. I highly recommend her to anyone. She’s simply the best.”

“Emily & Eric took great care of our pups while we were visiting from out of town for a family Christmas party.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10+ years and have a dog of my own that i love. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their beloved pets and have always been satisfied with the care I give. I'm currently at home full time, so I can take care of your pet anytime during the week. Mornings & afternoons are preferred for walks but will do sitting after dark! I take dogs for walks at least twice a day, provide food, water, treats, toys, and cuddles if the dog is cuddly. My dog loves to play with other dogs as well.
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs, cats and Guinea pigs for years. Shy or energetic I love them all as my own! I’ve taken care of animals who were puppies/ kittens to senior care/ needing extra love and medication. I’m a mama to an English bulldog and love all animals. I hope to make your family more at ease knowing I will take care of your fur baby as my own! My husband and I are WFH and have two tiny humans with me so your fur baby will always be with someone. Our sweet English bulldog recently passed away at 11 1/2 years old and we are looking to help families who need boarding and we can give all the extra love to their fur babies while they are away. Being a mama to an English bulldog means being on it with cleanliness, supplements and exercise. I believe pets are fur babies so have no fear your fur baby will get all the love and attention!
About: I’m a lifelong pet lover who has owned and cared for animals for many years.

I’m attentive, reliable, and focused on making sure pets feel safe and cared for at all times.
“Brandi, thank you for watching my Rocky while I was gone at work. It was so nice knowing he was so well cared for. Rocky seems to enjoy going with Brandi's husband at drop off which makes me feel very comfortable leaving him. Thanks again for putting my worries at ease. You guys rock!”
“Having Marta take care of our pups during this trip to Monterey was such a relief. She took them to a local dog park, had toys ready, and made sure they had everything they needed to be happy and comfortable. My girls played so much that when they got home, they went straight to their naps. I really appreciated Marta’s communication, flexibility, and overall kindness. This was my first time using the Rover app, and she made the experience feel easy and reassuring. I also appreciated that she agreed to meet Gracie and Dulce a week before. That helped me feel much more comfortable with the arrangement and gave me a chance to share a little about their personalities and needs. Lucky doggies, they had a blast while I worked. I am very thankful for the care Marta gave them and would gladly trust her with them again.”

“I can tell that my dog enjoyed his day with Tanaisa and her dog Loki. He walked right into the gate when I dropped him off for his second day. He got plenty of walks and socialization. I will definitely book with her again, even though it’s a total of 40 minutes detour for me, it’s worth it because Tanaisa took great care of Dante.”

From administering medication to long walks, from playful energy to quiet lap time, I adapt to meet your pet exactly where they are — whether young, old, quirky, or cuddly. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, barnyard animals, horses, and pets of all kinds — furry, feathered, scaled, or beyond — bringing the same calm, attentive care to each one. While I’m not a licensed trainer, I bring hands-on experience, training knowledge, and years of caregiving skills to every animal I meet.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life - growing up with cats and dogs instilled a deep love for animals that eventually led me to professional pet sitting in 2017. I spent five years as a trusted sitter in Portland, OR and nearly three years living in Bali, where I continued caring for animals and fostering strays in need. Pet and house sitting allows me to combine my nomadic lifestyle with my passion for animal care. I get to provide excellent care for your pets while staying connected to the fur babies I’ve always had in my life. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for weekday and weekend sits. I’m active and love taking dogs on hikes and adventures, and I’m equally happy spending quality time with cats who prefer cozy companionship. I’m highly organized and responsible. I’ll follow your care instructions to the letter, whether that’s administering medication, maintaining routines, or honoring your pet’s unique personality and needs. I work remotely with an extremely flexible schedule, which means I can be home with pets throughout the day. I’m not tied to an office or rigid hours. I structure my work around the animals I’m caring for, not the other way around. This makes it easy to accommodate morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding times, medications, or just keeping them company while I work. Whether your pet needs multiple daily walks or prefers a consistent routine with lots of companionship, my schedule allows me to provide exactly what they need. My approach is simple: I treat your home like my own and aim to leave it better than I found it. I take this responsibility seriously. Whether that’s keeping things tidy, watering plants, bringing in mail, or just making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. With your pets, my goal is to create stability and build trust. I stick to their routines, respect their boundaries, and give them the consistency they need to feel safe and cared for. Whether they’re anxious about you being gone or they adapt easily, I’m there to make sure they feel loved and secure until you’re back.
“Lizette is great, she’s very trustworthy, friendly, punctual, very responsive and took great care of my Ellie. She followed all the instructions I sent her and made sure to send me lots of pictures on their walks which I really appreciate! I will book with her in the future for sure 🫶🏻 thank you Lizette”
About: I have always been a pet sitter, even from a young age. I am trustworthy, communicative and will treat your pet like my own. I know how scary it is to leave your pet alone with a new person and I'd love to be the person that treats your fur baby exactly how you prefer. I am a Cincinnati transplant who just moved to Portland. I am currently working part time, and I would love to spend my free time hanging out with your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I'm more than happy to work with you to help meet your needs! My pets have always meant the world to me. I enjoy nothing more than spending as much time with my cat as possible, your animal is no different. I have 15+ years of experience caring for folk's animals while they're away or at work. I will do my very best to keep you updated with pictures and videos of your pet, as well as communicate any questions/comments and concerns right away.
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was born, sometimes living with multiple dogs, and animals at once, and never neglecting a single one and always providing lots of love and comfort! We have taken care of friends’ dogs, traveled around the country with them, and genuinely know how to interact and take care of our furry friends. I have lived with grumpier dogs, hyper dogs, large, small and everything in between and have loved every single one. I am patient, reliable person who would like to help make your life easier and ease any stress you may have while traveling, at work, or just out on the town! I would be so excited to host your pet in my home, or visit with your pet in the comfort of his or her own home! :) I am respectful and understand the vulnerability of the situation, and would gladly take every precaution necessary to make sure this experience is great for your pet and for you! Thank you! ☺️ I will walk in near by parks, or take on hikes if desired/allowed. Am willing to walk as often as needed, and follow all meticulous care needs. I have a flexible schedule right now- so most situations will work for me. I do have one dog, that I normally do not like to leave behind so please keep this in mind when booking. He is extremely friendly and loves dogs, cats and other animals big and small. He is the small white dog present in several photos on my profile. There is a dog park right down the street from my home, but am open to all wishes from pet owners in regards to specific care.
About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).
About: I’ve cared for animals for several years and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have hands-on experience caring for my own pets, including three ferrets, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to an animal’s individual needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow your pet’s routine to help them feel at ease. My goal is to give you peace of mind while ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and quality care. I truly love all pets and have even began volunteering at the southwest humane society to continue my journey with pet care! I have open availability all summer and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! During the school year (September through June), I work full-time as a teacher, but I’m typically available on weekends, afternoons, and school breaks. I’m committed to providing dependable, loving care whenever you need it. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, ensure they get the appropriate amount of exercise and playtime, and give them plenty of attention and affection.

“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.”
“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!”
“Tony is fantastic, My puppy loved her time with with him as shown in Tony's picture updates. Tony is easy to work with, flexible and friendly. We will definitely be returning.”
“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.”
“Our two dogs had a great weekend with Melissa! They loved being able to hang out outdoors in their own private space. They seemed very happy when we picked them up!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“I’m glad we chose Shane to watch our dog on 4th of July. He is a nervous boy around fireworks and gets scared. He seemed comfortable right on drop off and excited to play with another dog. He was tired when he got back home from all the play- and that’s a good thing. Would definitely book again.”
“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.”
“Left my pups (and houseplants) with Jenny while I was gone on vacation over the Christmas holidays. She was great, and the pups were pooped when I brought them home! I happened to have a vet appointment for Max that I'd scheduled a couple of days after my vacation. Both dogs had lost a few pounds, yeah! And Max's back right knee was doing very well, no swelling, heat or favoring. Jenny and her family did a great job with keeping an eye on him and keeping him from overdoing it. They were also very understanding when I managed to screw up my pickup date. I'd inadvertently written down my return flight on the day before it was actually scheduled, so I'd scheduled their pickup time for the next day, just about at the time when my flight was supposed to depart. And of course, the flight was delayed about two and a half hours. Luckily, I was able to pick them up about 5 hours after the designated pickup time. I will definitely be looking to her for boarding again in the future!”
“Grandpa’s Doggy Den is the best! Steve took great care of our dog Chester during a one week stay. He kept us updated and sent photos and videos which we were happy to receive. Steve’s love of dogs is obvious by the way he cares for each dog individually making sure their needs are met and they enjoy their stay and have fun! I highly recommend Grandpa’s Doggy Den!”
“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!”
“Brandi and her family were very welcoming to Rosie. I felt very at ease that she would be fine for her overnight stay. We will definitely be a return customer next time the need arises.”
“Todd was exceptional in taking care of our Ava! He made sure she was comfortable in his home prior to the booking and answered any questions we had promptly. He is very communicative as well and provided us plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. We're very thankful for Todd and would recommend him to anyone seeking pet-boarding services.”
“Jasper had a great time at Jennifer's! He got lots of attention and playtime. We appreciated the updates -- and it was a real relief knowing that Jasper was safe and being cared for by such a loving family. We will definitely book with Jennifer again!”
