Amy was super prompt, even though the weather was terrible and the roads were flooded! She asked a lot of questions and was very responsive, sent some great pics and I would use her again.

Stephanie was very responsive to any questions, and best of all the animals were all very calm when we got home. They usually are overly excited when we return from a trip so this was a relief. We feel she did a great job of looking after our 2 cats and dog.

Sergey was terrific! He came by to meet our dog before the pet sitting appointment and was very patient and caring. He was on time and dependable. If we visit Portland again we will definitely ask for him to pet sit our dog again.

Bryan has housesat for our dog a couple of times and we are so grateful to him for all of his help! He is great about updates, gives our dog (who is very shy and nervous) a lot of love, and is wonderful with her and her care. He is also very respectful of our living space. Thank you so much for everything!!

My husband and I one hundred percent recommend Nishat! She was communicative, professional but personable, and very quick to respond when my husband and I were desperately making last minute sitting plans for our big pup Oliver and cat Dexter! At the meet and greet, it was immediately clear that Nishat is an animal lover and during the few days she took care of our fur babies, the pictures and videos she sent made it clear our little ones were in safe and loving hands! Thank you, Nishat! Whatever pets and pet parents you take care of are lucky to have you!

Crystal watched my pup for a weekend when I took a last-minute trip out of town. She was communicative and sent pictures of my happy dog throughout the weekend, which made me feel so at ease. I came home to a relaxed dog and my apartment was even cleaner than when I left it! Would hire Crystal again.

Katey was our Pet Sitter for a few years and did such a phenomenal job taking care of our cats, loving them, and playing with them. She was reliable and trustworthy. She was also there when one of our fur babies passed away, and we were out of town. She stayed in touch with us and gave our fur baby the love that she deserved when we couldn’t be there. We always felt comfortable leaving our cats with her, knowing they would be in the best of care!

About: Trying to establish a customer base, so prices are cheap and we can lock them in going forward. Im a great dog dad and genuinely love animals https://www.rover.com/sit/brianc18618 I have two dogs. I have an 11 year old chocolate lab and a 3 year old yellow lab. I have had them since they were puppies and raised two incredible dogs. Were often at capisic park pond daily, the beach, or a variety of different trails. We don't go places that require a dog leash as my dogs are trained fully off leash, and that's what they are used to. I of course would walk your dog on a leash if preferred, especially until a relationship is established. They are the happiest friendliest dogs. Perfect for a third to join us. Great if your dog needs to socialize or learn to socialize or is shy and/or nervous. I'm kind and love dogs so much but we have expectations and rules to follow in order to have a good time. I'm a teacher here in Portland and am available after school at 3pm, and open on the weekends. I'm a single man, so I am available to house sit overnight. I treat pets with the upmost respect and care for them like humans. My dogs are equal in my home and have the best quality food and treats, exercise 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and sleep (take over) my bed nightly. I respect dogs well being and put that as my top priority. I talk to my dogs all the time, anticipate their needs, and am very loving, yet at the same time have rules and expectations for them to follow. I'm very good at explaining things to my dogs if they need correction with a firm voice and a loving approach.

Jackiellen has been perfect for us every step of the way! She's an excellent communicator, flexible and accommodating, kind and considerate. She made the whole process super easy and worry-free. And maybe most importantly, she has a very natural connection with our dog and cat, from the first moments they met. We felt super confident leaving our animals in her care and will absolutely call her again. She asked good questions to be sure she was clear on everything needed. She took great photos and sent just the right amount of updates while we were away. She took great care of our home, leaving it even neater than she found it. Honestly, I can't recommend Jackiellen enough.

Alexandra was excellent. Responded very quickly to an incredibly last minute request and showed up when she said. It was clear she was very comfortable with dogs from the moment she walked through the door. We will definitely use her again when we need someone for our Goldendoodle.

Gretchen did great with our two dogs. We are pretty particular with our dog care and don't leave our dogs with just anyone, and she did a great job following the instructions and communicating. Our dogs seemed happy to be taken care of for the weekend and we were able to be away without stressing over them at all while they were in Gretchen's hands.
