“Hannah did a great job caring for out two cats. Our cats are very shy and one has to have liquid medication which Hannah was able to provide. We felt comfortable that our kitties were well cared for while we were away. We would hire her again!”
“Lexus was communicative, conscientious, and did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away on a trip! I’d recommend her highly for any of your pet sitting needs :)”
“Fleur was fantastic! It’s obvious she cares about animals so much and took great care of Fred. Shes very communicative, reliable and went above and beyond. She eased my mind while I was away.”
“She is so wonderful with my old, sometimes grumpy dog! Very patient! Lets my Benny come to her on his terms. She was a lifesaver this weekend. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Katie was fabulous! We were concerned that our 9-month old puppy, Riley, would bark and not accept someone staying with him while we went to dinner. Well, were we surprised. Katie showed up early to meet us and get to know Riley. She had treats for him and knew just how to win him over. When we returned from dinner two hours later, we found Riley snuggled up to Katie on the couch. He was happy and content. Katie said he settled down and didn't bark while were away. She has a lot of experience with animals and has made us forever fans of hers. The next time we are in the Bend, Oregon area we will definitely call on her again. We recommend Katie very highly.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bend
Christofer was great dropping in on our 2 frenchies . Excellent communication, and got in 2 walks on his short drop in visits. He even went above and beyond and cleaned up the back yard. I would definitely recommend him if you need someone to care for your fur babies.
Anna did such an incredible job taking care of my pups on their first stay without family. I knew they were in great hands and the communication was amazing during the visits. Thank you so much for letting me feel comfortable being away, Anna! Highly, highly recommend.
We love Caitlin! She is thorough, thoughtful and a true caregiver for our dog while we are gone. She goes above and beyond our expectations every time and is an excellent communicator. There is no doubt that we will try to rebook Caitlin next time we need someone!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bend choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
