“Haley is amazing! I needed to find someone to check on my cat, Chubbs, who I had never alone before. Haley was so patient and caring, and she eased my anxiety. She sent me photos and videos every day. She very clearly cares about animals. Highly recommend!”
“Chris is fantastic. My cat Simon loves him, and Chris is very friendly, and professional. He goes the extra mile as well. He will bring packages in, and if he notices something wrong (we had a small leak in the downstairs bathroom he took care of it) He turned off the water and moved things from the vanity as well as shutting off the water. He let me know too. Chris does great work, and we like him a lot. Sandz Family”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing! My kitties warmed up to her very quickly, even my very shy boy. We loved the updates, photos and videos. Gave us absolute peace of mind while we travelled. We already rebooked with her for our next trip. Thank you again Ashley!”
“Kimberlie was great with my two cats.. one of them is very shy usually, but loved her! She took care of them very well and followed my instructions. Felt very at ease that she came by 3 times a day. Would definitely use her services again!”
“Did an excellent job and our cats were very happy! Love the pictures she sent! We will definitely always have her come when we leave the house because the benefits were so good!”
About: For Walks, Sittings & Check Ins I focus on treating animals and homes as I would my own. I am detail oriented, thorough, and thoughtful when taking care of homes while you are away or with pets for any service. I’ve worked with many types of dogs and age ranges. I adore animals and find them joys to be around. I've been an independent house sitter for cats and dogs as well as a walker. You can trust I'll get to know your pets, offer them patience and personalized care to their personality. When booked for a service, it has my full attention for safety and fun. I've cared for geriatric cats and dogs, as well as dogs with anxiety issues surrounding separation or other dogs. I also have some medicine administration experience with cats from volunteer work and personal pets. Let me know what yours needs and I'll make sure to care for them just as you would to minimize disruption to their routine. My first love was a sweet pug that lived to be 17. I now look after and walk dogs or look after cats for fun. My sitting rate includes morning and evening care for feeding and bathroom breaks, a daily walk, a check in during the day if local, and play time and attention throughout my time spent at the home. I can offer as many bathroom breaks as needed while present though would be at work for up to 8.5 hours a day. During this time, I may be able to stop by for a bathroom visit if local to downtown Portland. Otherwise, a drop in service from another provider would be necessary to fill in so your dog would be able to go out. My sitting rate is higher due to experience in keeping homes well cleaned and safe, being thorough in each task, as well as the amount of time, presence, care and experience I bring to sitting for animals. I’m also happy to provide you with as many or few updates and photos as you’d like. Here are some of my reviews from Wag: ‘Kate did an amazing job with our pup. Especially since our dog was weary of visitors. Kate took the time to get to know our dog and gain her trust. Then they had a great walk together. We’re so grateful for her patience.’ - C ‘Thank you so much. My dog had a quirky personality but you played right along!’ - A 'Wonderful walker. Thank you for your patience with our sweet boy!' - S 'Kate was prompt and friendly and took care of x wonderfully. Thank you!' - K I work full time now but have flexibility throughout the day to stop in while doing a sitting. Talk to me about what your pet’s schedule would be, and we can see if it can work. My full attention goes to home and pet security. I’ll follow instructions and keep things tidy like I would my own home. I watch for your pets behavior, comfort, and routine at home to best care for them.
“Kristin F. did a fantastic job taking care of our rabbit Sasha.She followed our directions to a t and sent pictures after every visit and a report card. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Finding Rover was a huge help with a recent vacation but meeting Amaiya and having her take care of our old girls while we were away was a great piece of mind for us. She made her self available on short notice to meet us. She sent pics and updates each of the days she visited. Really appreciated your time and will gladly work with you again Amaiya!”
About: I have been pet sitting for years. I have owned cats dogs and birds. I love all animals. I will not take any chances with anyone’s pet and care for them exactly how you wish. I recently lost my best friend, my 14 1/2 year old dog who was diabetic and had flares of Pancreatitis. I can give insulin shots and understand the needs of a diabetic pet. I usually start working late morning , so I can walk in the mornings. I generally work about 7 hours. If I am pet sitting, I will try to work a little less, so the pets aren’t home alone for long periods. I will care for your pet however they need. I can walk them, sit in a yard with them or take them to a favorite walking spot. I can administer medication if needed, I recently lost my dog who was diabetic. I can test blood sugar and administer insulin
“Vivian was an amazing support for my cat while I was away for 5 days. She spent quality time with her, completed all tasks, and checked in with me daily. I look forward to working with her again!”
About: I have been caring for pets (of all kinds- dogs, cats, birds, reptiles) for as long as I can remember, whether they be my own or my friends and family’s. I’ve done petsitting professionally through River and similar apps for about 7 years now. I have several regular clients in the area and I just love being a part of so many pets lives in this way!! :) I’m currently working full-time in downtown Concord, but I have some flexibility with my schedule and I am more than happy to work with you to find an arrangement that works best for everyone. I can offer mid-day potty breaks or work remotely when needed to ensure your pets are well cared for & happy. I also offer a rate reduction of $35/night if we find that additional drop-ins are needed. I’m an experienced house sitter and I take respect & privacy seriously. I’m very clean and make it a point to leave every home even better than I found it. I treat every home- and every pet- exactly as I would want someone to treat my own.
“They were super kind and caring when it came to watching my kitty king for the few nights they had him they let him come out and get adjusted when he felt comfortable enough to and they made sure to keep me updated and send me pictures of how he was doing which made me feel very comfortable with leaving him with them! Would definitely choose them again for my cat sitter if I ever need to leave again and can’t bring him with me!”
About: I’ve loved animals since that day I could say “dog” or “cat”. I’ve never lived a life without pets and couldn’t imagine a life without them. They make me so happy! I currently have 2 part time jobs, but am fully available evenings and weekends! Every weekday after 5pm or weekends at anytime! Please reach out to me with questions ! Me and my boyfriend live and have a cat together. At my parent’s home, we have one little 10 year old Shih-Tzu that loves other dogs. I cannot accommodate your pets in my home but I can watch your pets in your home!
“Great, consistent communication, sent photos of my Kitty daily, along with updates. My cat is very skittish around people but Sue was eventually able to pet her, which is a big win.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 230 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Bow. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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 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.
