About: I have pet sat at others homes for medium sized dogs, staying with them walking them, and playing with them frequently. I have also hosted dogs at my house such as a friendly pitbull, as well as medium sized dogs. I love spending time with dogs and I feel very comfortable working with all types and sizes. Personally I have had lab mixes before and I love spending time with them, and I currently have a small yorkie/mini poodle mix named Poochie. I am working part time so I have plenty of time to hangout with the dogs! I am almost always free mornings before 11 but I am frequently available other times as well. I am happy to keep a very close eye on your dog if the yard isn’t as secure or just let them play and hangout with them if it is more secure!
“Nathaniel is the best!! He visited my cat while I was gone for a few days. He is reliable and responsible. I began having Nathaniel pet sitting a year ago and will continue to have him care for my babies.”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born. I work in Downtown Bend and can frequently check in! I have a proven track record of being responsible and reliable for all different types of dogs. I will be available mostly weeknights after 5pm and weekends! I work in Downtown Bend so I can stop by for potty breaks and have plenty of time to play after work! I am always sure to get the dogs energy out! My apartment has a nice dog area and I can take them on long walks as well! My own dogs are not currently living with me so there will be no other dogs present at my apartment.
“Megan is awesome! She is very attentive to details and excellent in her communication. She sent pics and thoughtful notes with each visit she made while I was traveling. Beyond that my pups loved all the attention and play time she gave them.”
“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!”
About: 18-year dog mom in Bend, Oregon with hands-on experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors needing extra patience, mobility support, and medications. Although my own sweet pup recently passed away, caring for animals continues to mean so much to me, and I truly value being able to provide loving, attentive care through Rover. I’m patient, calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s routine, comfort, and unique personality, with experience creating safe, supportive environments where dogs can feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home in Bend, Oregon. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day In my Bend home, pets enjoy a secure fenced yard, supervised playtime, and a calm environment with my gentle senior dog and cat for friendly companionship. I follow each pet’s routine closely. In clients’ homes, I maintain familiar schedules, feeding, walks, medications, and lots of attentive care.
“Leeya cared for our cat, Siren, with drop-ins for 3 days. While he tends to hide from new people, Leeya sent pics of him getting pets and cozying up during her visit. Truly appreciate her!”
About: Unlike sitters who squeeze visits into a packed workday, my schedule is completely open and flexible. This means your pet gets my absolute, undivided attention. When I visit, I am 100% present—focusing entirely on structured walks, intentional playtime, and genuine companionship. Because I have a highly flexible daytime schedule, I can accommodate specific timing requests to keep your pet’s daily routine perfectly consistent and comfortable. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to meet your pet’s familiar routine easily to ensure peace and comfort. I have an elder dog at home who requires a bit more love these days so I have no problem giving your pet some extra love and patience if needed. As a natural homebody and empath, I don't just feed and walk your pets—I truly see them, listen to them, and mirror their energy. Animals naturally sense my calm, gentle presence and feel immediately safe around me. If your pet gets anxious when you leave, struggles with loud noises, or just needs a patient friend who won't rush them, I specialize in creating a peaceful, stress-free environment right in their own home.
“Hannah was detailed, communicative, and accommodated our changing schedule and needs. She went above and beyond for our cat and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
“Christina did a stellar job taking care of our 17 year old cat! She provided care for him at his expected meal times and she gave thorough write-ups about his condition and the care she provided. She went out of her way to make him and us feel cared for. She even went the extra mile and cleared our sidewalk when it snowed! We looking forward to having her care for him again in the future!”
About: I have two years of work experience in a dog daycare and boarding facility! I have worked and cared for a diversity of breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments! I love animals and am so excited to meet your pet!! I am easy to work with, and will prioritize your dogs specific needs and care instructions. I’m currently working part-time in Bend with tons of flexibility! Let’s find a time that fits perfectly into your schedule 😊 I am most available during the morning hours and into the afternoon. Safety first!! Your dog will remain leashed in all public areas unless you request something different for play, etc. I am more than happy to transport your dog in my SUV to parks, trails, whatever you are comfortable with!
About: From growing up with an energetic, fun-loving yellow lab named Wally, to working at a veterinary clinic, and now caring for my own 7-year old Wheaten Terrier named Beans, I've spent most of my life around pets! My time at the vet allowed me to learn how to take care of so many different types of pets, big or small, playful or calm. It also taught me how to approach all types of pets, and how to make them feel comfortable with me. I'm a natural born animal lover, no matter the size or breed. I'm really looking forward to getting to know your pet! I’m currently free pretty much anytime, any day to care for your pet! I’m more than happy to come early mornings, late evenings, and weekends! I have always been a big rule-follower, and this really comes in handy when caring for other peoples animals. As someone who has used Rover for my own pup, I know letting someone into your home can be daunting, but I do everything I can to make you and your pet feel comfortable!
About: I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds and ages. As a licensed pharmacist, I have extensive experience safely administering medications — both to pets and humans — and I’m very comfortable following detailed care instructions to make sure your furry family members get exactly the care they need. I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with a wonderful German Shepherd and two rescue cats. Though my current housing situation doesn’t allow me to have pets of my own right now, I still cherish every moment I get to spend with other people’s pets. I especially love active dogs — bonus points if yours is a frisbee enthusiast! You can trust that your pets will receive attentive, compassionate care in a calm and structured environment while you’re away. I work part-time remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide lots of attentive, one-on-one time with your pets throughout the day. I’m very active and love going on walks, runs, or trips to the park, so I’m a great match for energetic dogs or playful cats. My availability is generally flexible, though it works best if you’re comfortable with my children (ages 9 and 11) joining me during visits if your booking falls on my parenting time (please ask if it’s an issue). I’ve been trusted by many clients — including friends and strangers alike — to care for their beloved pets and homes. I provide daily updates and photos throughout each booking so you can stay connected and feel completely at ease while you’re away.
About: I have cared for friends dogs over the years. I grew up with dogs and was their primary caregiver. I am known to attract dogs when I meet them. They know I care about them and am gentle. I am retired with a flexible schedule all week except when I travel. I am not an early riser but can happily adapt when necessary. I have a fenced back yard with a dog door to allow free movement.

About: I have grown up with many dogs and have my own golden retriever puppy at home! I love being outside and would love to take your dog to a park, on a hike, or on a run! I am a first grade teacher so I have the summer off. Looking for something to fill the gap! I can handle dogs of any size, breed and age. I would love to get the opportunity to hang out with your awesome pup! Let me know if I can help! Also happy to host your pup if you think they’d get along with a puppy! I use Rover for my pet rabbit and dog so I would love to be of help to someone else! I am a teacher who has summers off so my schedule is very flexible and I can stay or take care of your dog anytime/as many times a day as you’d like! I would take them out multiple times on long walks to use the bathroom. I would also soak up any time I can get cuddling or spending time with your pet. I will feed them on time!
“I leave early morning for work and Remy doesn’t like going outside due to the cold & darkness. Today I had no choice but to leave her in her kennel until a friend could stop by and help. Unfortunately everyone was busy so quickly turned to Rover. I was extremely lucky to find Victoria, who was able to help us out very last minute. Victoria was willing to care for my pup. From the pictures I was able to tell they both had a blast! Please, if you are looking for someone to care for your baby, look no further. Victoria is awesome!!!”
“Tess is amazing! She was in frequent communication about how the pups were doing and she took great photos. It was very nice knowing that my dogs were well cared for when I was at work.”

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!
Morgan was wonderful with our pup! She is professional, friendly, and a great communicator from start to finish. When she came over for the meet-and-greet, she asked thoughtful questions, immediately showed our dog so much kindness, and even helped redirect some of her over-the-top excitement. That gave me confidence right away. Our 1.5-year-old English Bulldog is full of energy and gets very excited when people come over. She’s not the easiest walker and can overheat quickly, so I was looking for someone who was happy to spend time playing in the yard, keeping her safe, and making sure she had fun. Morgan was exactly that. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she gave our girl. I highly recommend Morgan and will absolutely book with her again!
Maci provided kind, gentle care for my sweet 16 year old dog Titus. On her two visits involving check-ins & walks she was timely, kept in touch, and made keen observations about my dog's humorous character and ways which were spot-on. It was a pleasure to have Maci care for my dog. I think you will feel the same way if she looks after your pet(s)!
Libby did an amazing job taking care of my puppy, Pilot, during her drop-in visits. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure she was well looked after. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing she was in good hands while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely recommend Libby to anyone looking for someone trustworthy!

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 Bend 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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Bend with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
