“Maya was an amazing sitter for my dog and cat!! I was able to trust her to watch them to the absolute best care they could have received!! Thank you again so much for being so loving to them as if they were your own! Absolutely wonderful!”

“I was really pleased with Jasmine. She was very thorough and kept me updated with great notes and photos while I was gone. I felt comfortable with her as soon as I met her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Thank you for taking great care of my girls! I appreciate you giving them attention and checking in on them while you feed them. Highly recommend. Great communication!”

“Heidi was so wonderful! She helped me with a last-minute request and was patient and attentive while I explained details about taking care of my 8-month puppy. It was my first time to have someone watch him, and I was quite nervous, but Heidi did a great job and stayed in contact with me, sending pictures and video of my puppy sleeping and having fun. I have hired her for a second visit!”
“This was Sarah’s first time with my two kitties and she was amazing!! One of my kitties is hard to love, but Sarah was patient and persistent and eventually made friends of both of them. She gave them treats and pets and even brought flowering catnip from her garden. I felt so at ease being away from my cats because of how much love and attention Sarah gave them 💜”

About: I have over 5 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including overnight stays. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and following daily routines. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medications or extra attention. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide photo and text updates for peace of mind. I work full-time but have a very flexible schedule and typically finish work around 3:30 PM. This allows me to visit pets throughout the day and provide consistent care, including walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m available for overnight stays and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining their normal routines. I’m happy to coordinate visit times based on your pet’s specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I primarily provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I always follow care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. Pets are supervised, secure, and cared for in a calm, clean environment at all times. While I do have a fenced yard available if needed, my main focus is attentive, responsible, and stress-free care in your home.
About: I grew up with many animals and have taken care of dogs, cats, and fish since I was 8 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied and trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets! I am currently home for the summer and eager to meet and play with some new animals! I am available during the days and very flexible! Pet safety is my priority! I make sure to have a leash, water, and some treats whenever I’m walking with a pet. I make sure to give words of affirmation (“good boy” etc.) to the pup or cat, and I care deeply about the well-being of the pet!
About: I have been a trainer at the local shelter for 3 years. I have worked with many types of dogs and love them all. At the shelter I have worked with fractious dogs and also have experience with dogs that have stranger danger (wary of new people), on leash reactivity (reactive towards other dogs, people and/or bikes etc) and working with dogs on basic obedience. I have also put on workshops for the local shelter through Clatsop Animal Assistance. I did a mentorship in Florida with Dogs Playing for Life working with shelter dogs that experience the above. I also worked with them on basic lose leash walking techniques, working walk (heel walk) and basic obedience and have continued this training to the shelter dogs. I currently have two small dogs and often foster from the shelter. My previous dog I did years of agility with and loved training him! My schedule is fairly open as I am currently studying for NPTE and running dog playgroups and handling dogs at the shelter. Mornings or evenings work every day of the week. I can do 30 minute or 60 minute walks whatever you and your dog decide! I am comfortable going to your home with or without after a proper introduction to your dog.
About: I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, frogs and fish. I am willing to work with any kind of pets and take care of any need. I am avaliable weekends to spend time with your pet and meet it's needs in or out of the home. I am avaliable 8 am - 8 pm I treat pets with respect and love, making sure they don't feel like their space is invaded by giving them lots of room if they look anxious.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I wasn’t sure how it would go as one of my dogs doesn’t warm up to new people very well. When Kerry came for our meet and greet with in 20 mins my dog was totally in love with her. I felt my girls were in good hands. While I was gone I leaved hearing and see pictures of how things were going. I could see the girls were happy and that made me happy. I will definitely be using Kerry again for my next trip.”

“Emily is wonderful. My two cats really like her, even the one that doesn't like strangers, took to her pretty quickly. I will certainly let her care for my cats again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of retired racing greyhounds with lots of anxiety as well as a very spunky golden retriever puppy since he was 7 weeks old. I’ve also raised three kittens to adulthood, and they are my babies! I’ve been loving and caring for animals for as long as I can remember, and I’d love to care for yours as well! I’m currently unemployed due to chronic pain and illness, and looking to find some meaningful work! I’m hoping that taking care of some fur babies will keep my spirits up and bring them joy as well. I’m currently only doing in-home visits and walks:) I never do off-leash walking unless in a fenced area, even if the dog has good recall, because you never know how they’ll respond to someone who isn’t their owner:)
About: Mother to two four-legged babies, friend to all! Hi there! I’m Faith, a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mama to two sweet girls: Muffins, my 6-year-old orange tabby, and Noralise, my playful American Shorthair. I adopted Muffins when she was 11 months old and Nora at just 2 months, and they’ve been my heart ever since. Before becoming a cat mom, I grew up surrounded by dogs, mostly Beagles and Pit Bulls, so I’m comfortable caring for both small and large breeds. My family’s beloved pit bull, SaSa, lived a long and happy life until age 15/16. I helped care for her throughout her life from 6 months old into her adulthood and then her senior years. I would help her up and down stairs, applying topical creams, warming up kibble with broth, and making sure she stayed comfortable every day. Layla, my red-nosed Pit Bull (you’ll spot her in the Christmas sweater in my photos!), passed in July 2024 at around 10 years old. We shared hundreds of walks, hikes, and car rides, and even the occasional pup cup after vet visits. After her emergency hysterectomy in 2019, I gained valuable hands-on experience giving both topical and oral medications, which I’ve also applied when caring for my cats after they have undergone being spayed, aMuffins dental treatments. From administering flea & tick treatments to preparing raw, dry, or canned meals (plus supplements!), I’ve built strong experience in pet health and daily care. I’m confident in dog walking, safe playtime, and of course, an expert in scratches, snuggles, and making pets feel loved. I truly adore my animals, all animals, and treat every pet I meet as if they were my own. You can trust that your furry friend will be cared for with patience, love, and genuine attention while they’re with me. Im a full time Federal Employee. During most work weeks i’m available around 4:30 pm-8pm. Most weekends my schedule is more opened up for mornings and afternoons. Please message me before booking something M-F if services are needed before 4:30pm. I will do my ultimate best to respond timely! While I do not offer services within my own home for clients. I promise to always respect ones home and belongings. As I would want mine respected. Personally I like to check in on my lazy loafs so I do have in home cameras. If you do too, absolutely no problem at all. For reservations where I am dropping in on a dog or a cat, I would sweep up any tracked litter around the litter box as part of cleaning it out- and with towel or napkins available, wipe doggy paws after outside time if preferred. Again, I would want my own space respected so please communicate with me regarding your needs/expectations.

About: I have been working with dogs for 10 plus years. I worked for several years at an Animal Shelter, at a vet office, and have fostered many dogs and cats. If your pet has special needs, I am able to accommodate that as well, as I have personal experience providing medications and working with special needs pups. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to let me know! I work Monday through Friday until 3:30PM. I am available for drop in visits on those days after 6PM, and all day on the weekends for drop ins and walks. Every pet and pet parent have different expectations and needs. Tell me what you need, and we will make sure your pet is getting the best care possible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Astoria on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 86 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Astoria. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Astoria stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
