“Ashley is a-maz-ing! She takes such good care of my senior cat with chronic illnesses. My kitty can be a little shy, but I could tell from our first meet and greet that she had a special feeling about Ashley. I get so many wonderful check-in photos of my kitty snuggling with Ashley and it puts my mind at ease. Thank you, Ashley!! 🥰”

“Aimee is amazing with my kitty Luna! This is the third time I have used Aimee for kitty sitting and she does not disappoint. She cares for your pet as if it's her own with love and affection. Also, I love all the photos from each visit! ❤️ Highly recommend!”
“Elena is great and has been taking care of my boys for a very long time. Castle and yuma are big boys with special needs as one is extremely reactive and the other deaf and she handles them both perfectly. She is always on time and my boys love her. Only walker I prefer to use.”
“Merry was absolutely phenomenal! ❤️ She loved our cats, gave them all the attention and care I had asked for, treated them like her own, and sent us pictures every day. Knowing our girls were in such loving and caring hands gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Merry kept in constant communication, which made us feel even more comfortable and reassured. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our fur babies! I will definitely be booking with Merry again for any future pet-sitting needs. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares! 🐾💕”
“Amir took great care of our cats and cow while we were away on our trip to Seattle! He was super detailed and asked a lot of great questions during the meet and greet to make sure he was prepared. He was super punctual and took great care of our animals! We will definitely use him again in the future when we need to! Highly recommend!”
About: Animals have always been a major component of my life. They tend to be drawn to me and trust in my patient compassionate nature. I enjoy training puppies basic manners and have even taught my cat a few tricks. I love being outdoors and engaging with those around me. Dogs appreciate my high energy and positive reinforcement. My schedule is pretty limited at this time. Every day but Tuesday I am either working or attending classes 11am-730pm. Depending on distance of travel it is possible to provide walks beforehand, after, or on a Tuesday. Let's connect and see how I can best assist caring for your fur baby (: I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Our activities are structured around a schedule that they'd typically experience to keep stress at bay. Lots of walks, treats, snuggles and play time! Respecting pet parents requests is my top priority. Let me know your needs and we will find something that works (:
About: I've had many pets since I was a young child. My grandparents had a farm so I've had experience with all sorts of animals. My dream is to have an animal sanctuary some day. I believe it's important to provide care to an animal in their home to limit stress and disruption to their normal routine. I have 3 dogs at home. Many of my home cleaning clients have animals so I'm exposed to all types of pets on a daily basis. Walking dogs provides exercise not only to the dog but for me as well. Providing care and a routine that the animal is used to is important to me. Communication with the pet parent is key to a successful experience with any animal.
About: I have been caring for dogs For over 10 years, but in reality, i have always had pets in my life. I love animals and enjoy making sure they are happy, Safe, and well Cared for every day lincorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routine by scheduling walks and drop-in visits at times that are convenient for the pets and their owners. I make sure to provide consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks, keeping the pets happy and safe throughout the week. I provide a safe and caring environment during walks and drop-in visits at the client's home. I make sure pets are never left unattended, follow the owner's instructions carefully, and ensure they have food, water, playtime, and potty breaks. Safety and trust are my top priorities.
About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life, and pets truly are my family. I started with cats, even bottle-feeding a litter of kittens several times a day when their mother disappeared. Later I got my first dog, trained him myself, and worked in the training section at PetSmart. Now, with over 20 years in business as a solo pet-care professional, I’ve handled allergies, separation anxiety, aggression, hip dysplasia, blindness, and more. That experience means I notice the small things, stay calm in the tough moments, and always put your pet’s safety and comfort first. When you’re away, you can feel confident your pet is with someone who will love and protect them as if they were my own. Reach out and let’s talk about how I can help care for your furry family member. My weekly schedule includes some transportation responsibilities, but I also have several hours of availability throughout the day. I typically start my day around 5:00 a.m. and wind down around 10:00 p.m., giving me a fairly flexible schedule. I am also fully available on weekends. I am dependable, flexible, and able to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs. I have a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for pets to play and enjoy themselves. I have one dog of my own, Pup Pup, who is a 40-pound Pug/Boston Terrier mix. He is very friendly, social, and absolutely loves the company of other animals. He would be more than happy to keep your pet entertained and provide a friendly companion during their stay!
About: Hello! :) I run a studio called Puppies & Painting, previously managing Puppies & Yoga. Every weekend I care for (alongside another staff member) up to 14 puppies for 8 hours at a time. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From playing at the park or a long hike to a specific medication schedule, i’m here for all their needs :) I’m currently running a Puppies & Painting studio on Saturdays and part time during the week as an art teacher at an afterschool arts program. My goal is to be a full time animal nanny 🫶🏻 I live in an apartment with my partner and cat. My cat is very shy and will mind her own business when another animal enters our space. I spend a lot of time outside, whether your animal likes long walks or sitting in a park for hours - i’m here to accommodate for their needs :)
About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and have been pet sitting since I was young! I have my own dog Ziggy who gets along very well with other dogs but he also has alternative options to stay if your pup needs solo care! Dogs help me fill my days and nights with love and company which we all need in life! I have a flexible schedule, am personable, caring, and responsible! Your dog will feel like they are on a staycation when they are with me in a place that feels like home💖 I'm currently unemployed and have full availability to pet sit! I have a car so I'm able to offer pick up and drop off as well. Overnights and extended stays are more than welcome! I am attentive and give all my attention to the pets in my care. I’m much more patient with dogs than people lol. Making sure they not only have what they need, but also want! I love taking walks with my dog and lounging in my downtime. I don’t have a yard but live in a beautiful NE PDX neighborhood with plenty of options for adventures!
About: I have a great love for animals, but especially, dogs. I've been dogsitting/dogwalking for around fifteen years, starting with sitting for my friends pets. I'm a very loving caregiver, so when their dogs would see me again, they'd spin around in circles, full of joy, and follow me around wherever I went. They started recommending me to their friends, who'd recommend me to their friends and so on, until I was sitting for all kinds of dogs. I decided I wanted to learn everything about dog care and to take it seriously as a profession. I took off to Peru and volunteered at a dog shelter. There I cared for 50 lonely street dogs. That's also where I learned about how to be an intuitive dog leader in groups of up to fifteen dogs. The feeling of fifteen strays running up to you every morning for some pets and affection is one I'll never forget. Now I spend my days sitting for dogs like yours. I also work in a doggie daycare. I spend a lot of my time off volunteering at the Humane Society. At this point, I'm confident and knowledgeable in dog behavior, alone and in groups. I can tell when a dog is anxious, or lonely, etc. I can read a dogs emotions, when it signals through its mouth ears, tail or body tenseness. I've learned a lot and I'm dedicated to learning more. I want to meet all the dogs! I'd love to meet yours! I'm sure we'd get along! I have a part time job in a doggie daycare, just because I love dog care and want to learn everything about it. Otherwise, I'm doing a lot of dogsitting. I like to dedicate a lot of my day to my furry clients, walking them and giving them bellyrubs. Housesitting: When I'm housesitting, I spend as much time as possible in your home with your dog. I love to take them to parks and to explore your neighborhood. Boarding: I have a big house to for them to run around in with fluffy, comfy couches and a cupboard full of treats. I also have a grassy back yard where we can chase balls and play tug-a-war. Lents Park is around the corner from me so take walks there several times a day.
About: I am a dog groomer and sitter of 3 years, I have a standard poodle and a Mexican hairless dog. I also show my Mexican hairless dog in akc dog shows. I have experience with reactive dogs, intact dogs, and primitive dogs. My specialty is aloof breeds as I love the connection and bond, it makes it even more special when they trust you. I work full time as a dog groomer and admin at barkzone, but your pup would be able to come with me and hang out in the office safely away from the other pups with fresh water and access to a backyard for supervised potty time I have a separate dog room for feeding time and kennels for unsupervised time away from them. If they need to sleep in a kennel I have extras or they can sleep with me. I do not have a fenced yard but I can offer structured walks around the block or to the parks! And lots of play time
“Chrissy took such good care of our kitty! We were left scrambling after our regular sitters had to leave town early during the holidays because of weather. Chrissy braved the snow and ice to make sure our cutie had dinner and water - plus treats! We can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our cat. ☺️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bull Run
Ive never left my dogs with anyone outside of my family before so I was really nervous. Brittany took away all my fears and concerns. My dogs loved her! I was able to focus on my training and had zero worries. She was absolutely amazing! Thank you thank you thank you!
Emily did an amazing job; my original sitter had something come up so I needed someone last minute and she was understanding, flexible, and communicative. I could tell from the pictures she sent me that our cat loved the attention from her. Would definitely book her again!
Casey was terrific with my darling Frodo. Casey was super attentive, playful and caring with Frodo, communicative after every drop-in, including cute photos of Frodo, and basically, exactly what I would hope for in a pet caretaker. Yippee for Casey, and of course, plan to use him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 6,247 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bull Run. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
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.
