Personalized care for your dog or cat - Trout Lake

“Laura and Brian were wonderful- and Buddy was the perfect companion dog for Tui during her stay. After lots of off-leash walks at the Spit and snuggles on the couch, I’m sure we’ll be back.”

Anna B.

“Raenell was great! I really predicated regular updates during the stay and excellent communication leading up to the stay. My dog returned happy like he was on vacation 🙂. I would recommend Raenell to anyone.”

“Skye-Ann stepped up with a moments notice after our other Rover helper had to leave on an emergency. Skye took good care of Sally and we appreciated her!”

Bridget L.

“Charlie was great! Very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs and much more. Absolutely gave my boy a little vacation and toured him the sites and spots all over. Really enjoyed all the picture and video updates as well. I’d recommend Charlie to anyone who wants the best for their pet while they are away.”

“Cory watched our 3-month old puppy Willa for a few nights, and we had such a great experience with her. She had us come over to meet Willa before we booked officially, and made us feel so comfortable, letting us see her house and where Willa would be, and taking Willa for a little stroll around the block with us. She kept us updated the whole time Willa was there, sending photos and little notes which made us feel SO much better as it was our first time being away from our puppy! Cory also really cared about our schedule with Willa and wanted to keep up the training we'd been doing with her. She asked tons of detailed questions which I really appreciated. We already have her booked again for the holidays! We're so grateful we found her.”

“Our dog was very happy and comfortable with Lyndsay! She was great at communicating and responded quickly.”

“Emily was so great!! She watched our golden retriever who has a lot of energy and my dog was so tired and happy when I picked her up. Her dogs are so sweet and had so much fun with my dog, and I felt like Emily was really caring and understanding of some diet needs she has. I’ll definitely board with her again!”

About: I grew up with a golden retriever and had a Heeler mix for 16 years that traveled cross country with me. I’ve got great experience with elderly dogs and young dogs alike. My fiancé and I are home quite a bit with fenced yard, but love to hike in the area to make sure dogs get all the exercise they need! I have mornings off, so plenty of time for walks and hikes. My fiancé is a ski coach with summers off and is home most of the day to hang with the dogs. I have a fully fenced yard to play in with plenty of sunshine. Plenty of time spent at home to socialize and exercise! Morning and evening walks close to parks and hiking.

“Wow. Mackenzie saved us last minute when plans for our Meeko feel through. We were driving from Portland to Hood River area for a wedding and had nowhere to take him. She offered her services right away and was the absolute best person to leave him with for the weekend. She made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met, and sent updates and pictures all weekend. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend!!! Thank you again, Mackenzie for being absolutely amazing!!”

About: Our love for animals runs deep. Our pets are our family and bring so much joy to our lives. We will take great care of your animals because we understand the importance of keeping animals happy and safe at all times so their parent can have peace of mind while they are apart. They bring us so much joy that they deserve nothing less than to be spoiled with love! Both my husband and I work from home, so our girl and your pup would be with us the whole time during their visit. He farms our vineyard while I work from home in wine marketing and sales. Our 10 acres are completely fenced. We have an Australian Shepherd who is 3 years old and loves being our watcher girl and frisbee queen. The dogs are with us all the time and have full range of all the comfy spots for resting between plays. Water is available in multiple locations to keep pups hydrated as they live the vineyard life!

About: We are a married couple that work from home and have a friendly 3 year old golden retriever and an 11 month Collie Mix. We have decided to host one dog (family) at a time. We are home bodies and our pups love having company. When you book with us feel safe knowing both of us will be at home with your dog and monitoring their safety. We both grew up with family dogs and other pets and we understand the scary feeling of boarding your dog. We are happy to meet and answer any questions before taking in your dog. We will update you daily (at a minimum) of how they are doing, including sending pictures of course. As mentioned, we work from home. Our schedules are very flexible. When we book a stay we plan on staying home and playing with the dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard where our boy Lambeau plays. Your dog will be part of the family and free to roam the house and yard as they please.

About: I have 3 years of professional experience working with dogs and have been around animals my whole life. I grew up alongside dogs and have a deep love for making any pets day better. What sets me apart is my experience with dogs who need extra care and understanding. I have hands-on experience with special needs dogs, including caring for a dog who partially uses a wheelchair. I am comfortable assisting with mobility support, medications, senior care, and adjusting routines to meet each dog’s individual needs. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, and dogs that may be more challenging or require extra patience and structure. I genuinely enjoy working with high-energy dogs who need both physical and mental stimulation, as well as calm, mellow dogs who prefer a slower pace. I firmly believe every dog deserves respect, patience, and high-quality care, regardless of age, size, energy level, or behavioral challenges. I focus on creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience by following routines closely, reading body language, and adapting my approach to each dog’s personality. My goal is to earn both the pet’s trust and the owner’s peace of mind. I currently work part-time and would love to take that as an opportunity to care for your pups! I'm available most weekdays for walks/hikes as well as drop-in visits. I currently provide care exclusively in clients homes, which allows pets to stay in a familiar, low-stress environment. I am comfortable adapting to pets schedules to ensure their exercise, feeding, and any medications they have stay familiar to them and keep them as comfortable as possible.

“Kaycee was great! She spent extra time with my little girl and made quick friends. Definitely would recommend!”

Jesse S.

“Sydney was awesome - she cared for my horses, goat, and kitties with kindness and respect. She executed a complicated feeding and care plan and for that I am grateful. She communicated easily and had everything under control. I recommend Sydney to anyone with animals - they can entrust them and their home to Sydney and have a stress free getaway. Thank you, Sydney!”

Betsy H.

“Thanks for checking in on our girls! Nevaeh was great- and did very well with our reactive pup especially.”

Emily C.

“Charlie was great! I felt calm, and comfortable leaving my Millie , for the first time ever, in his care. He sent the best video of her having a blast running and playing. Highly recommend Charlie!!!! Can’t thank him enough!”

Teresa F.

“Zeke had a great time with Laura, and I appreciated the pictures and updates she shared. We had a medical emergency and Laura was very kind and willing to keep Zeke as long as we needed. I will definitely book with her again!”

About: I'm an experienced dog sitter and former dog mom just returning to Rover and accepting new and returning clients! I have decades of experience taking care of dogs, including my own, friends', and dogs in rescues and shelters. I was the dog-walking coordinator for a dog rescue and a dog-walking volunteer for a public shelter for years. I actually grew up afraid of dogs and it was a big deal for me to start volunteering to walk strange dogs; it helped build my confidence, and I was -- and still am -- very attuned to what's going on with the creature at the other end of the leash. I believe every dog has unique needs and temperament and honor these while they're in my care to ensure they feel as secure and safe as possible. DOG SITTING AND BOARDING: I work from home as an editor, so your dog will get lots of attention and potty breaks. Your dog is welcome to join me on the couch or lie at my feet for regular pets, or chill in another room in or out of a crate. Whatever will make your dog feel most at ease while you're away. I recently lost my own 15-year-old dog, so your pup will be my sole focus (and will get lots of love and care). I have a fully fenced yard at my home for potty breaks (separate from walks/hikes). If you don't have a fully fenced yard at your home, it's no problem to take your dog for leashed potty walks as frequently as necessary.

“Makenzie was responsive, easy to work with, and kind to my dog. Her dog Mochi is a well behaved playmate and my pup came back happy and tired after getting long walks and lots of playtime in the yard.”

“Sam has a great property for dog sitting, fully fenced in with indoor AC available. My two dogs fully enjoyed their stay, helping with the garden and playing with her adorable pup. I would highly recommend Sam as a pet sitter. 15/10 experience!”

About: Growing up, my family always had cats, dogs, Guinea pigs, ferrets, fish, and more. Being around animals is nothing new to me and is a huge part of why I have a huge heart for animals now. I currently live in BZ Corner in a house with a fenced yard with my two cats, Archie and Oliver, and my golden retriever named Seager. Archie is 4 years old, Oliver is 6 years old, and Seager is a year old. I do work two part time jobs, but I am available most days in the afternoon. Just send me a message and I’ll let you know if I am available! I love all animals! My cats are my babies and I shower them with love. They have lots of toys and even have harnesses for me to take them on walks and two cat trees to climb on. Seager, the newest baby to the family, is my pride and joy. He is crazy but so loving. He gets to go on multiple walks a day and even gets to go down to the waterfront on the weekends. After a walk with your pet, I will make sure your pet has water and place them back where they were before I took them on our walk. I will of course make sure they get their energy out with toys, give them a ton of pets, and make sure they go potty on our walk as well. I do have a large yard, and it is newly fenced! I live far away from the main road and do not have many neighbors.

“Jenni was great and very sweet to our pup! Timely and communicative, we will be using her again!”

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and I am willing do to whatever it takes to make them happy, comfortable, and cared for. I do work varying shifts from 10-12 hours 3-4x a week. However, outside of work I will still provide everything they may need! With lots of pets, play time and going outside! I do have a full yard and I moved to a house so i no longer live in an apartment. I dont have any dogs. Not since I moved out. I watch a beautiful hound when his parents need time away. My parents have two beautiful well taken care of Rottweilers. I have five cats. I feed them good quality food and occasionally do raw food diet when I can afford it. I play with them when I can and they are inside cats.
