“We had a wonderful experience with Emily. Coconut was comfortable very quickly, which was a relief. Emily also sent us immediate feedback so we could start our vacation worry-free. We got lots and lots of pictures - so fun to see Coconut zooming around the yard or crashed out on Bowie's bed. Also- I made a mistake on the booking dates, paying for one extra night, and Emily caught the mistake and fixed it immediately. This was my best experience with Rover yet. If she's available, I wouldn't use anyone else!”

“Anastasia was extremely attentive to Spud. He can be a bit nervous, and she quickly put him at ease. She also sent me regular updates so I would know that he was doing well. It was nice to get pictures. It was comforting to see how much she loved her dogs and how friendly they are as well. The yard is spacious and there is plenty of room for the pups to play! Thanks again, Anastasia, for making it possible to have the dog cared for and be able to take time to get away with my husband.”

“James was beyond great with my 16-year old dachshund. She was happy and comfortable, and at ease, which is a big change for her! They provided me plenty of updates and I could tell she was in great hands. Thanks James (and Toby)!”
“The last thing a pet parent wants is to worry about their beloved furry baby while traveling. Hayleigh provided just the right amount of love and care to Dash. I’m so grateful for sitters who truly love dogs and understand dog behaviors. Dash is by no means a problematic dog but he experienced some anxiety with another sitter that I had no choice but to switch sitters mid booking. Hayleigh was a comfort and even arranged to pick him up at previous sitter. I have no doubt she knows what she’s doing. Thank you!”

“Gary and Carol are dependable and consistently offer outstanding care to Waldo. At the risk of having them overbooked the next time we need them, we would highly recommend them without hesitation!”

“Daisy was absolutely lovely! She kept us updated with photos and timely check-ins and it was such a relief knowing the pups were in such good hands and being loved on. Definitely recommend and would love to work together again.”

“Perfect cat sitter. Had a very spacious room for two of my babies. Perfect for their 10 day stay. I got numerous updates with pictures and it made the time away from my fur babies so much easier. Patricia was also such a sweetheart and made the process so easy. Thank you!”

“Second time Canyon and Gumbo stayed at Bridget’s house and they were so excited to see her again! She’s super responsive, kept us updated with lots of pictures, was very flexible when we had some travel delays.”

“Paul (and Arnel) took great care of Rosie and provided me daily updates of all their adventures! She was in great hands and he was an excellent communicator! Loved all the pictures and news of her daily life.”

“We cannot recommend Kristen highly enough for her exceptional care of our pupper, Ragnar, during his overnight stay! From the moment we reached out to her, she was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Kristen clearly has a genuine love for dogs, and it showed in the way she interacted with Ragnar. She took the time to ensuring that he felt comfortable and at home. We loved receiving updates, complete with cute photos of Ragnar happily playing and snuggling. It put our minds at ease knowing he was having a great time! When we returned, Ragnar was not only well taken care of but everything was ready for our pick up. We are so grateful to have found someone as wonderful as Kristen to watch over our baby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for future dog-sitting needs! Thank you, Kristen, for taking such great care of Ragnar!”

“Louise was wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone in a long time, and our past experiences were not good, so finding Louise felt like such incredible luck! She was communicative every step of the way, with regular updates each day that we were gone. When we picked Lily up, it was obvious that she had a great time, she was calm and clearly well taken care of. We cannot recommend her enough and will absolutely be booking her again!”

“Goose seems like he had more fun than even being at home! Best experience I have had in Portland with a sitter, I did not have to worry or think about a think while I was out of town! I could not recommend her enough, 10/10 sitter and goose was very loved!”

“Kaitlin did a great job with my high energy dog. I got daily updates, including pictures of the activities they were doing, and he came back exhausted; she met my dog's needs. I definitely recommend her!”

“Jason and Lindsay & their boys were available at a moment's notice when my schedule sitter fell through. They provided Rosie with attentive and loving care, and I would absolutely trust them with my sweet girl anytime.”

“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.”

“Erin and her family took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away! We especially appreciated the thoughtful communication and humorous photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier and look forward to booking with them again in the future.”

“Julie and Barry are always so wonderful with our little Cadi. She is very loving but not the easiest to care for, but they figured her out 😊 She feels so at home at their house.”

Shirley was a fantastic host for our 5-day boarding reservation. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up, gave frequent updates with pictures and videos, and was very accommodating of all care instructions. Shirley asked a lot of good questions to make sure we were aligned with our expectations. It's clear she has a lot of experience with dogs, and her house and yard were perfect for our large, somewhat active dog. We will definitely be going back to Shirley with future dog sitting needs!

Dhani and her family are awesome. The were genuinely excited to watch my dog, and kept me updated with pics and details throughout his stay. They played with him, took him running, bought him toys, and loved on him- truly above and beyond. I couldn’t be happier with their service. Thank you guys!

Eliza was very sweet, had great communication, and seems to truly love dogs. She sent daily photos and communicated as needed during her stay to clarify my preferences for caring for Luna. Luna appeared happy and well cared for when we picked her up. I trust that Eliza looked after Luna as if she was one of her own. I would definitely have her watch Luna again next time we visit Oregon!

Stewart was absolutely amazing with our dog Tucker! Stewart cared for him as if he was his own. 10/10 will use Stewart again, his hospitality was amazing and he was able to help out last minute. If yall want a safe space to send your dog or cat to, Stewart is the guy👍🏼
