“Emerson has been taking Bella on long walks while I am recovering for surgery. Bella is a very hyper , leash reactive dog. Emerson has been on time and takes her for an hour and a half which tires her out to the max. So greatful for Emerson, and her ability to handle my high maintainenance high energy pup! Note: Bella is not the best on leash, she tends to pull and Emerson is really handling it. She walks Bella three times a week.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, and animals have always been an important part of my life. I currently have both a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m attentive, dependable, and patient, and I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of affection, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am currently a stay at home mom with plenty of time to take care of your dogs and cats when my you may need! I am currently a stay at home mom with plenty of time to care for your dogs or cats in your home anytime you need.
About: Caring for your dog will be the highlight of my day! I grew up with Bernese Mountain dogs and have always loved all animals. I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as the responsibility that comes with caring for them day to day. Over the years, I’ve also watched friends’ dogs ranging from small poodle mixes to large labs, each with their own personalities and needs. I’m happy to take your dog on walks or do in-home drop-in visits. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals so I'll cherish the time I get to spend with yours! I’m attentive, calm, and treat pets like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. I'm working full time from home and have a very flexible job. I'm available to check in on your pet most days and am happy to come by whenever works best for you. I am happy to come and check in on your pet and give them whatever care is needed in your home or take them out for a walk.
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.
“Emma is wonderful! She takes Harper on nice long walks and always sends updates and any changes via message. Harper always looks so happy in her photos - I can tell she is enjoying her time with her new friend!”
“Ginny has walked my senior boy weekly for several months. She is very patient with him, going at his pace and letting him sniff more than walk. Ginny is excellent communicator, always on time and genuine nice person. And best of all Saru loves her and is always happy to go on a walk with her. I can't recommend her higher and you will be lucky to have her walk you dog.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for 15 years. They are a passion of mine! I’ve taken care of puppies/ kittens to adult and senior animals. I understand every pet/breed has unique needs and I will work with you to make sure your babies are the most comfortable and taken care of. 🫶🏻 I work remote full time Monday through Friday for flexible schedule drop in visits and walks/hikes. Weekends are flexible too! Whether it’s a one time visit or a routine visit with your fur babies, I’m your gal. 💗 I will treat your fur baby like my own during their time with me. Their safety and trust is the utmost importance to me just as I would expect the same from someone watching my own pets!
About: I have had animals in and around my house all of my life. I love both cats and dogs and have experience with both and many different sizes and breeds. I love animals and consider them a part of my family. I have experience administering pills, syringes, eye drops and most other common at home care for both dogs and cats. Pet care is my main focus. I run a small business from home which allows me full focus and flexibility around your pets needs! I’m very flexible and will ensure to prioritize your pet if we have a booking together. I try to leave any space better than I left it. I’m happy to follow any directions you may have for both your pet(s) or your home. I always double check locked doors, water and food levels as needed prior to leaving. I will make sure your pets are cared for, and you are kept in the loop of any and all things that take place during my time with your pet(s).
About: I've had dogs all my life. I recently lost my 16 year old dog Juno after rescuing him when he was 4. I gave him the very best life possible and while I'm not ready to get another dog yet, I need to have dogs in my life. I am both volunteering and fostering dogs through Street Dog Hero which has been great. II'm happy to have your pup curl up next to me on the couch and also in bed. I'm also fine to administer medication. I'm basically retired so available to spend almost the whole day with your dog. I will occasionally have errands, go for a run, etc and happy to let your dog stay home alone if you're comfortable or perhaps go for a ride if convenient. I have my own home, fully fenced front and back yard. Your dog will get at least 2-3 walks per day and can be crated if that's your preference (you will need to provide the crate).
About: I have had the opportunity to raise all sorts of animals from chickens, goats, iguanas, to even an African Grey Parrot. As well as many pups. I've gained a lot of knowledge and practice in crate and potty training, teaching tricks and obedience, and even breaking some bad habits. Although if you have any pointers on the bob barkers, I'm all ears!!! I currently work 1 day out of the house, and the rest of the week I work from home, so I am able to be around most of the day with my own pups at my own schedule. I have a fenced yard and 2 very friendly well behaved pups who would keep your pet company at all times. I also have my own large crate from when my last pup was still in training, in case it's needed. My significant other and I are very outdoorsy and love keeping the dogs burning energy any chance we get, playing fetch outside and teaching tricks for treats!
“Helen is great with our fog King. She is very responsive, always on time, flexible and always reports in detail how the walk was with king. Our pup is always excited to see her. I would highly recommend.”
About: I love pet sitting! I'm here to help as long as it's a good fit for both of us. Can't wait to meet you and your little love! I work Monday through Friday but I can fit in a walk at lunch and night time. We also are open most weekends as long as it's in the area. Depending on the need of your dog I'm happy to support the normal routine of the animal. Crate, sleep on my bed, couch, I'm not too worried as long as your pet doesn't pee or poo in the house 😀
About: Hello, I believe all pets are part of our families and that they give us more than we give them. I grew up with many dogs and have been pet-sitting for friends and family for a long time. I currently have two dogs at home, one small and one large. It's the best of both worlds! I love getting to know the many personalities different dogs and animals of all shapes and sizes have. Spending time outside is very important to me so I frequent the many beautiful areas Bend offers with my own pets, and those I care for. Cats were also part of my upbringing so I also thoroughly enjoy spending time playing with them and giving them the level of attention they best respond to. I'm happy to play and interact with cats, or ignore them, depending on what their needs are and what they best respond to. In addition to cats and dogs, I am also comfortable with reptiles! I have a crested gecko and ball python at home. I’m providing affordable prices so that you can avoid kennels and instead receive great pet care at the right price. If you choose me to care for your pet or home expect nothing but the best. I have open availability during the week for walks, daycare and boarding. I'm very flexible, let's see if we are the right fit! I work remotely for a nonprofit, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take breaks as I need throughout the work day. This works perfectly for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the day, but also makes it easy for me to spend ample time with your pet(s) if I'm staying at your home. On weekends I prioritize spending more time outside getting myself and my pets (or yours) some exercise. I go at your animal's pace when establishing a relationship. Some animals feel comfortable and safe right away, and some can take a little bit more time. I like to meet each animal where they are at, and give them however much time they need to feel safe. I love playing with animals and cuddling when we get past introductions and everyone feels comfortable. In addition to our social dynamic, I am courteous and conscious with recreating your pet's daily rituals to the best of my ability so their routine doesn't change. I will do my best to serve up meals on time, give bathroom breaks in a familiar cadence, and get them exercise when they are used to it.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bend
Jazmin was great. I live in Portland and was coming to Bend for a few days. I was hiking South Sister and couldn't leave Hope all day without breaks (and belly rubs). Jazmin and I connected before I came to Bend, she was very responsive and then was able to meet with me the day I arrived to do a meet and greet.and then stop by several times while I was hiking. Hope loves her!
Caitlin was great! She is so kind, friendly, and caring! She took great care of my dog and worked with me through all the craziness of moving places! You can tell she really loves and cares about animals! She is also a great communicator and leaves a detailed report card!
So grateful to have found Kersie- not only is she responsible and professional, she was super communicative, flexible and patient with our rescue pup who can be a little apprehensive with new people. I would recommend Kersie 100% and look forward to working with her in the future.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Bend. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
