“Alina did an amazing job with Amani. She was patient, attentive, and spent quality time playing with her, which really helped because Amani is usually very energetic. Amani ended up completely relaxed, calm, and exhausted from all the playtime. It was clear she felt comfortable and cared for. I really appreciated the updates and the level of care provided. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Louise was amazing! My dog loved her and she was always communicating with me and keeping me updated on his status. I would definitely recommend her and would love for her to watch Walter again!”

“Michelle was amazing and so attentive to our kitties! She gave us wonderful updates (pics/videos) the entire time and was very kind. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a kind, helpful, and professional person to take care of their cats while they are away!”

“Emma was amazing! Our cats clearly loved her and she was so great with communicating with us. We felt completely at ease with leaving our cats at home. Would 100% recommend Emma!”

About: I have taken care of, and been around dogs, pretty much my whole life. As an adult I have experience with leash/dog reactive dogs, super high energy puppies, done overnights for dogs with separation anxiety. I also have experience training my own dogs and really enjoy it. I am stay at home mom with both my kids in school so I have free time especially in the mornings after school drop off. I am very careful with other people's property. There should be no signs that I've in your home except for well loved, exercised and happy pets.
“Stellar!!!! The fluffballs love her! Thank you for taking care of those two again. Muffin is generally shy around people, but she came right out for you! I have a hard time leaving them, but I knew from previous experience that Adriana was the sitter I wanted. Flexibility, on time, attention to details, the photos and communication are why I was hoping she had availability. Thank you again. Happy Cats, Happy Life!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I know how to care for them well and I’m always willing to go above and beyond to ensure happy pups. I work weekends, late afternoon, and evenings at my other jobs so I’m free all morning during the week. I have a fairly flexible schedule. At home, I have a dog and 2 cats. I’m always looking out for them and schedule their feedings, vet visits and play time. I’ve always had a dog at home so I have experience there.
“Lucinda is the only person that my dogs haven't barked at or been fearful of. I've had them for 10 years, and they even bark at me when I come home. They were totally calm when she came to feed them. It really helped my travel anxiety.”

About: Hiya! I’m a newer resident of the Portland area with a longtime background of caring for pets of friends and family hoping to fill a need in you and your pet’s lives. I love going on longer walks/excursions with dogs but also love just spending time in the neighborhood. I’m currently a part time post grad student looking to do some pet care during the day on weekdays, I can do weekends but mostly I’m looking for people wanting and needing pet time during their day to day work schedules when they can’t get home. I’m hoping to be as seamless into your life and schedule as possible. That means being in your house minimally, keeping you updated on times but not too buggy, keeping pets watered, and being in and out.
About: Hi Furfriends!! I have loved animals since I was a small child. As a kid, I grew up with cats and a few dogs. As an adult, I’ve spent over 15 years living on a farm where I helped care for many dogs, sheep, cows, goats, chickens & turkeys. Currently, I’m living in the city, conveniently located and looking to help you care for your furbabies! I work full time Monday-Friday away from home but am able to house sit on the evenings and weekend to care for your baby while you’re away. Your baby will get lots of love and cuddle time as well as toy play. I can assist with crate training and general obedience if needed. I am comfortable giving medication.
About: I’ve housesat for years ranging from dogs, cats and even a chameleon. I love all animals and enjoying watching them. Previously I have administered medications to dogs and cats. I work full time for an oral surgeon. I am open to weekend appointments starting in July. I will not be working from June 29th- July 6th and completely free! I currently have a 2.5 year old rescue named Rusty who is my world and very spoiled. He gets lots of walks, daily teeth brushing, snuggles, lick mats and all the dog bones he desires. Rusty has a lot of energy so I am used to tiring out a dog with a tennis ball, dog park visit or long walk.

About: I've been petsitting around my neighborhood since I was about 12. I've grown up around dogs my entire life, and in the summer of 2025 I was a doggy daycare attendant at Dogtopia in Cedar Mill. I would watch up to 25 or more dogs at a time, noting different dog personalities and tending to their needs. I am also experienced in cat care and behavior, usually extremely successful in getting any kind of cat to be comfortable. During the summer, I will be free almost the entire week to watch over your pets and make sure they are getting the care they need! I will have time to refill food, water, clean litter boxes, have outside time, and even playtime! I make sure that pets, dogs and cats alike, are comfortable first and foremost before doing anything. I take the time to make sure they know that I'm here as a friend and not someone they should fear. I make sure they get used to my presence before I do anything.
“Shannon was absolutely great with Benji! He was loved and cared for so well while we were gone and I really appreciated the communication and picture/video updates. I could tell Benji was at ease and really enjoying his time with her!!”

“Julianna was fantastic with our ragamuffin, Cal. She arrived at the same time every day and sent great pictures. He was well-cared for! And, she even checked on him on Thanksgiving, which we greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Julianna - she's a wonerful pet sitter!”

“We have only work with Claire for a week but she is on point. Very organized and great at communicating. She is very caring and loving to our 11 yr old puppy. Happy we found her.”

About: I want your pet to feel like they're with a friend, so I go out of my way to build their trust and ensure they have a positive experience. Though not currently a pet owner, I've had several pets throughout my life and have volunteered for both the Humane Society and a wildlife hospital, where I gained experience with administering care and medicine to animals. I'm semi-retired, so have the time and flexibility to do things that I love-and one of the things I love most is spending time with animals! I take extra care with pets to "meet them where they are," which means paying attention to their cues and adjusting my approach to ensure they feel safe. My goal is to build their trust and make sure they feel safe and cared for.
About: I have grown up with both cat and dogs my entire life and was raised on how to take care of them! I was always the person growing up that friends and family reached out to when they needed a dog or cat sitter. I've also worked as a dog walker through a previous service as well. I am currently in between jobs so I am available all week between 6am and 10pm. I am off on the weekends but can make exceptions in some cases. When dropping in or walking pets I make sure they are safe and sound. I check to make sure they have water or food, clean and are happy. I triple check to make sure when entering and leaving that doors are locked and the pets are safe inside. On walks I am familiar with all harness types and make sure they are secure in my hold. I am also aware of my surroundings to make sure no dangers are around and that the pet is behaving normally.
West Haven cat parents share their Rover experiences
Candice does a wonderful job caring for my cats. I always know my boys are in good hands with her and can rest easy that she will care for them like her own. Even after a long 2 week trip I came home to a clean home and happy cats. Thank you Candice for your attention to detail and kindness!

Louise has been absolutely exceptional with Amani. She is caring, reliable, patient, and truly goes above and beyond. Amani is always happy, playful, and comfortable around her, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. I really appreciate the attention, care, and energy she puts into every visit. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats Amani like her own. I highly recommend Louise to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing to care for their pet.

This is my second time using Adriana for drop-in visits for my two kittens, and once again everything went smoothly! Adriana is super reliable and communicative, and my cats warmed up to her very quickly. I could tell they were happy and well cared for, and I’m so glad to have found someone that I can trust in my home and with my babies!

Rylee was great with our anxious cat, they were best friends by day 3. She ensured he got his required medications on time, and was great about communicating with us so we felt like we knew he was being well taken care of. Will definitely hire again in the future.

Michelle was amazing and so attentive to our kitties! She gave us wonderful updates (pics/videos) the entire time and was very kind. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a kind, helpful, and professional person to take care of their cats while they are away!
