“My experience with Melody was fantastic she went above and beyond, truly the best pet sitting experience I have had. This was a super last minute booking after my previous sitter cancelled and she responded immediately and was willing to take over and show up instantly. She was super communicative and made me feel very comfortable, even going as far as giving me updates when she was leaving the house for less than 30 minutes. Not only did she send plenty of adorable photos of my cats but she cleaned up as well leaving my house in better shape than I left it. I would recommend Melody in a heartbeat she is the best.”
“Thank you Phillip so much for coming and staying and housesitting with my two dogs lolly and Putter. You gave them excellent care took care of my household and everything looked beautiful When I got home. You kept in touch with me sending me pictures. You’re the best and I will absolutely request you again. Thank you so much. I so appreciate you.”
“Kellie was awesome. I was nervous to leave my pup while we were away and they made sure I was updated on all of her daily habits and activities! Lots of photos and messages helped to ease my mind while we were away. I felt like my sweet girl was safe and happy. Would definitely book again!”
“Natalya was very friendly, communicative, and took good care of the pets and house. I really appreciated her picture updates, and she even took my dog on an extra trip to the park! Would definitely re-book”
“Alyssa cared for our cat, Mocha, for two days and stayed overnight at our home. This was our first time leaving Mocha for an extended period and using a cat sitter, so we were a little nervous but Alyssa put our minds at ease. It was clear that Mocha was comfortable with her—she continued eating, playing, and sleeping normally throughout the weekend. She even seemed to enjoy some in-depth conversations with Alyssa! We received regular updates and photos, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Alyssa also left our home neat and tidy. Overall, she did a fantastic job caring for both Mocha and our house. We would book with Alyssa again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Tabitha was great! She kept me updated with photos throughout the stay and went above and beyond my expectations. She did an amazing job caring for Ellie, and I would definitely book with her again. 10/10”
About: I have a 5 year old cavalier King charles spaniel, and had dog before him. Since small I always wanted take care dogs and know I want try it . I work Sunday- Wednesday morning shift, I can alway change a day to have weekend off or I can board after work Wednesday thru sunday I’ll treat the pet the same way if there were mine too. I’ll treat them all the same how I treat my dog that how I’ll treat yours too
“Had a wonderful experience with Rachel. Kindly offered an initial meet + greet. Pups and house appeared well maintained upon our return. We received some regular updates throughout the stay. Grateful for her help and would absolutely book again.”
“Hannah was so sweet and is a true gem of a pet-sitter! We needed support in our last minute of need for the Holidays and she delivered. She cared well for our little furkids and went above & beyond to support their needs ❤️ Highly recommend Hannah and we are ever so grateful to her for this timely support and detailed support.”
“Erin was AMAZING! We are so thankful to of found and worked with her. She took such good care of our pups. One senior and one adult dog plus a cat. She made them feel at peace while we were away and couldn't of asked for a better outcome. Will work with her again.”
About: I am extremely detailed oriented and very observant. I sense when animals need something different and will always tend to their needs first over anything. I can chill with them or play forever and anything in between. I work 5-6 days a week with and average of 6 hours a day. My schedule is pretty set to only working mornings and being off work around 11am to 12:30pm. After that I am free and available! I am more than able to be in your home and you never question that I was there. I leave places cleaner than what I found them and make sure all the boxes were checked that are expected of me.
About: As a proud dog and cat lover, I know how vital it is that your furred loved one receives the proper care they need. I grew up in a home with a German Sheperd, a Poodle, and 3 cats, so I’m aware of how unique each pet must be handled. Because of this, I make it my mission to follow your instructions and requests to the letter. I’m a detail oriented person who thrives on clear and rigid rules. But I’m not against just sitting back and relaxing with an anxious dog or cat, if all they’re in need of is someone in the house to make their owners absence a little less scary. I’m a full time video editor. But because of this, I make my own schedule, and often work into the late hours of the night. All I require to work, is my laptop, a wi-fi signal and a pair of headphones. The perfect person to keep an ear out for any anxious dog in need of calming down, or a surly cat in need of their nightly meal. I follow any and all instructions to the letter. I understand that a lot of pets can be quite eccentric. If an elderly Terrier needs the TV on? I’ll do it. I’m also aware of just how difficult finding the right home for yourself is, and will treat your house with the utmost respect. Wiping feet before entry, not a dish out of place, trash neatly put away. I think of it like visiting a park, I’m there for the animals, not to leave litter strewn about.
About: I live in Salem but drive up to Portland several times a week. So If you live in the Portland or Salem area or anywhere in between, I am happy to help you with your pet sitting needs. I grew up with cats, dogs, and chickens. My earliest pet care was at the age of 10 taking care of my neighbors dogs and cats while they were gone. In my adult life, I've had one cat and 4 dogs. My current dog is a Standard Poodle named Percy. He's a huge love! I know your pets are your heart, too. I strive to give your pets my best love and care while you're gone, just like I would want someone to give Percy! I currently work from home, so I can pop in or stay over easily. I would hope that your pet is able to walk with Percy, because he would hate to be left out of the fun. Each pet is unique and will be respected. Grouchy kitty under the bed?? I’ll say hello extra sweet and then leave them be. Tigger-like active puppy? Let’s throw some balls in the yard! The pet that thinks my lap is theirs? Good snuggles and lots of sweet talk, for sure! Let’s chat and see what your pet needs.
“So glad we found Lee! They did a fantastic job taking care of our cat and home for nine days. Lee is communicative and trustworthy, and even left our house cleaner than when we went on our trip! We will definitely have Lee cat-sit for us again in the future.”
About: I've spent years helping care for many animals. As a child I helped care for our family dog until we got another, then another, then another. By the time I was a teen I was helping my family out on our property to care for our three dogs, our many cats, our chickens, ducks, goats and Llama. I also had neighbors whose home I would frequently visit to help feed and care for their goats. I believe in animal rights. When I am working for you, I am not only here to make money but to apply my knowledge and the knowledge you share with me to serve the well being and needs of your furry friend. I will always stay focused and attentive on showing your pet the love, attention and respect that they deserve :) At the moment I make money through gigs and seasonal jobs. I love to live every day and every week doing something new with as much freedom as I can afford. My schedule is very open giving me lots of time for weekend and weekday bookings. I can do anything asked of me. If I haven't done something before it will not be difficult for me to learn if instructed. I love animals. I love working with them, caring for them and helping them and their owners feel comfortable and happy with the services I provide. I can feed them, take them on walks, play with them, let them rest, crate them when asked or necessary, give them meds. Anything you need.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, etc for years, I love getting to know new animals and their personalities. I am familiar with reward based potty training for puppies I am currently working from home and have plenty of time to play with, walk, check in on pets. I love to explore new neighborhoods for walks I have two cats who get along well with everyone, and in watching pets on others homes they are self sufficient for hours to be able to spend time caring for pets.
“Tabitha was fantastic! She impressed me with the seriousness and detail of her questions at our meet and greet. She handled a plumbing issue when we were gone with good sense and grace. When we got home the place was spotless and more importantly Loki and Callum were happy and calm and clearly felt super comfortable with her. I’ve already referred my neighbors to her and hope she’ll be available next time we need to go out of town!”

Natalie was amazing. She sent us pictures of our sweet girls during her stay. The house looked great when we arrived back home. It is reassuring to know we don't have to worry about the house, or pets when we are out of town. I highly recommend her and will be using her again.
Saber is amazing, hands down. My wife and I have a high energy (and anxious) dog and an elderly cat and Saber takes fantastic care of them. We have a very detailed Google doc and she does everything to ensure they're safe, happy, and well-cared for. We were out of the country for 10 days and Saber sent at least 2 updates a day. She gave both of our pets medicine. The cat has ear ointment for hyperthyroidism and the dog has anti anxiety medicine and allergy medicine. One of my top reasons to reccomend Saber is because when there has been an issue, she reaches out to us right away. Ex - dog was barking at night because the neighbors were being loud, we suggested an anti anxiety med. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing that she would let us know if anything was up and we don't have to wait to come home and figure things out. Other highlights, she keeps their schedules, our apartment was just as clean as we left it, and she took cute photos of the pets every day! Saber is awesome and we were really glad she was available to watch our pets, it made us feel much better being away.
Alexandra is an absolute legend, easy 5/5 stars. Her level of professionalism really impressed me. My 3 dogs loved her from the moment they met her, which was great. She provided updates, wrote notes on what had been done before she left and sent daily pictures while we were away. She took her duties and responsibilities seriously and I really appreciated that. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
🌟 Colbie is an amazing pet sitter! Our 4 cats were relaxed and happy after our trip. Even our skittish kittens came out to say hi which is rare! Colbie’s followed our instructions and the house was spotless on our return. It’s apparent that Colbie loves and has a special gift with animals.
Xavie is great, this was the first time we have ever hired someone out side of family/friends and she put our mind at ease caring for our girl. We loved all the updates and photos she sent, they made us feel comfortable knowing she was in great hands. I would love to book with her again in the future.
I had a wonderful first experience working with Stephanie and would absolutely trust her with my pets again. She is incredibly thoughtful, professional, and reliable. From the start, she was responsive and communicative, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the entire time, she provided thorough daily updates along with great photos, which I really appreciated. It was clear she was attentive and genuinely cared about my pets’ well-being, taking the time to ensure they were comfortable and well cared for. She is also very trustworthy and conducts herself with a high level of integrity, which is so important when someone is caring for your home and animals. She left my home in excellent condition — clean, organized, and very well maintained — which I truly appreciated. Overall, she went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again or recommend her to others.
Hannah was so sweet and is a true gem of a pet-sitter! We needed support in our last minute of need for the Holidays and she delivered. She cared well for our little furkids and went above & beyond to support their needs ❤️ Highly recommend Hannah and we are ever so grateful to her for this timely support and detailed support.
Alexis cared for our dog and 2 cats while we were away for 3 nights. She did a really nice job and actually was able to get both of our very timid cats out of their hiding places and eat. We found the pets to be happy and well cared for upon our return. In addition, she washed our sheets and remade the bed, took out the garbage and brought us treats.

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 Chapman Corner 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 Chapman Corner 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.
Tip: 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 Chapman Corner 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
