“Amy is a super star—such a responsible, kind sitter with impeccable attention to detail; everything is always clean and in its right place when we get home. She provides our dogs an excellent amount of exercise and enrichment so we’re left with tired pups for days after we return. Our dogs get so excited to see her!! We know they’re in trustworthy, capable hands while we’re away which is truly priceless.”
“Karina was great. Very communicative, offered a meet-and-greet before booking the stay, and sent lot's of images and videos throughout the stay. She went above and beyond in sending overviews of her walks and extra videos. Came home to a happy and healthy pup, clean house, and would definitely use her again.”
“Kaili was amazing! Super attentive, responsive, and punctual! She took great care of my dogs & kept me updated throughout my trip, which I really appreciated. She also took wonderful care of the house & I returned to clean sheets and bedding! Cannot recommend Kaili enough.”
“We felt very comfortable entrusting our quirky senior dog to Vivian. It is clear Vivian gave her lots of love and she communicated well during our 2 week trip. The house was left in great condition.”
“Taryn was our first Rover sitter, and wow, were we impressed! She went above and beyond our expectations while caring for our two Bernese Mountain Dogs. The frequent photos of their happy faces made our time away thoroughly enjoyable and worry free. Taryn is responsible, a great listener and communicator, and genuinely loves animals. We look forward to having her care for our pups again.”
“Would highly recommend Michael! His daily updates and pictures gave us peace of mind during our trip. He was patient with our rambunctious 7 month old boxer puppy and even got him crate trained for us! We will definitely use him again going forward.”
“Michael was a find! Super happy with all aspects of Michaels personal attributes and for the care he provided to our elderly dog Inka. Great communicator and seemed to be on top of everything we needed. Inka was a happy, relaxed dog upon our return. Thanks!”
“Sierra was wonderful!! Our dog Percy is very demanding of attention, and Sierra met his needs superbly! She kept us informed the whole time we were gone, and I felt completely comfortable that Percy was in good hands. I would hire her again in an instant!!!”
“Kara took such great care of our dogs! She made sure that they were fed, happy, and tired at the end of the day. She is great at communication and I really appreciated all the photos and updates. Thank you Kara!!”
“Caitlin was so great with my dogs and took great care of my house. She even bought a couple dog toys and left a really sweet gift. She left the house spotless and was very communicative while we were gone. I will be using her in the future.”
“Hayley was fabulous and gave us updates while we were away and she stayed at our place. She was flexible when we needed to leave a day early, sent us pictures, took our dog on adventures, and left the house clean! Will contact her to watch out dog and cat again!”
“Our boy Basie had another great visit with Fleur. She has a very watchful eye and noticed he was not feeling well. She was great communicating his symptoms and working together on food options to ease his upset stomach. Basie can be a scavenger and no doubt ate something when I took him out before we left town. Fleur gave him lots of TLC while he was on the mend and kept a keen eye for any unusual behaviors. It gave me a great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We came home to a happy dog who was back to his usual silly and active self.”
About: I have 3 dogs 2 cats and 2 fish. I love animals i'm taking care of them. I would have more if my husband allowed! I am a full-time mom who does home school. So doing this part time would be amazing for my family. I also love pets and meeting new animals. So that would be the best part. I have a huge backyard that's is fenced in. I also have 3 friendly dogs and two cats that would be glad to keep any pet entertained
“Cyrus was amazing! He took exceptional care of Bailey and kept me informed of his visits. Cyrus took lots of pictures, shared frequent updates, and exceeded my expectations overall. I will definitely book him again.”
“Austin was super nice and immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our precious puppies in his care. He gave us photo updates while we were away and our dogs obviously enjoyed his company and were sad to see him go. We will certainly look to book Austin again the next time we have a need for a dog sitter in Bend.”
“Sherry deserves the utmost praise for the exceptional care she provided for our much loved Luna during our travels. Luna is inseparable from me, and our bond is unbreakable. When financial constraints made it difficult for us to bring her along to England, we were determined to find someone who would be incredibly understanding and patient with her as she struggled with our absence. Sherry proved to be an exceptional communicator, sending us pictures and updates on Luna’s well-being throughout the entire stay. Her thoughtfulness extended beyond her care for Luna; she also helped Luna adjust to her new environment after a few days, which significantly eased our concerns. Upon our return home, we were greeted by a beautifully maintained house and a joyful Luna. We are overjoyed to have found a reliable and compassionate caretaker in Sherry. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

Alisia took great care of our pup! She was an excellent communicator, timely, and left our home in perfect condition. Our dog was not stressed out whatsoever when I returned home to her - Alisia kept her comfy and cared for. Will absolutely be requesting her support again in the future.
Liz did an excellent job watching our challenging pups! She was very attentive and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and loved. Our house was cleaner when we got back then when we left so really appreciated that! She was excellent at sending pics/video updates and always responded quickly to any communications. Will definitely use her again😀
Leslie was so loving with my dog, Lupine. She sent daily updates with photos about their day, their walks and Lupine’s wellbeing. Leslie followed my intricate instructions to resolve Lupine’s GI issues and also kept me up to date on that. Lupine got along well with Leslie’s dogs so she got to have adventures with them too. I will definitely reach out to Leslie again when I travel. She’s responsible and caring.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bend walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bend maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters 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 sitter.
