“Claire is a master. She is so great with dogs. She is a trainer and a dog person through and through. I can't say enough about how helpful she was with indigo during our recent trip. She was fantastic. Easy to work with. The dog came back behaving better and looking better than she did when she went. I'm going to use Claire in the future to do some training as well. I highly encourage anybody to use Claire. But not so much that I can't get in with her anymore!”
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“Joshua has been taking such wonderful care of our Golden Retriever for over a week! He sends constant photo updates and it’s so clear our dog is having an absolute blast. We will definitely be reaching out to him every time we need a sitter in the future.”
“Teresa was fabulous, on all levels. Knowing that Remy was been taking care of and having a great time made my vacation more relaxing. Teresa made it a vacation stay for the pup, walks, parks, new experiences - he obviously had a great time. I will definitely use Teresa again.”
“Using a new sitter on rover is always a little nerve racking, Julie came through for me last minute when I needed a sitter. I could tell when I dropped my dog off he would be well cared for. Julie was an excellent communicator I got multiple updates and pictures daily. She has a nice enclosed yard and a room dedicated for dogs. She took my dog on walks everyday. I highly recommend”
“2nd time stay! Our dog Cozy loved the stay - we got lots of pictures, Cozy had fun with other dog friends and had lots of play. We love bringing our dogs to you! Thank again!”
“10 stars! Elizabeth has a great love for dogs. Mochi was in the best care with her. She took him in like he was her own. She made sure he had so much fun with so many outings, doggy play dates, and snuggles. She had great communication throughout. We highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”
“I’m so glad we found Maddy! She assured me that my precious old gal was fully integrated into their family throughout the stay. I very much look forward to using Maddy again.”
About: I've raised 2 puppies who spent their whole life with me. I've adopted 1 rescue and 1 senior. They have had health issues (particularly the rescue and senior) so I'm familiar with some of the early and intermediate signs. We are now at a point in our lives where we want to still spend time with dogs, but we aren't looking for the 24/7 commitment. So we would like to host your furry baby for a night or a weekend and give him all the joy of a good friendship without the kennel experience of a dog hotel. We will be taking on pet care Friday thru Sunday. We may be able to support an emergency during the week, but since we both work full time, that would mean I would need to work from home for a day (which is pawsible with notice). However, it would not be our preferred schedule. We want to spend time with your dogs playing and relaxing - not just leaving them in an unfamiliar space while we are at the office. We are looking for day or overnight services on the weekends when we are free and planning to be home. We would expect you to bring enough food and medication to last their expected stay plus 1 day (in case of unforeseen circumstances). Then leave the rest to us. We will give regular bathroom breaks and play times (no yard), much love and pets and be vigilant about your recommended food/medicine. We do not look forward to creating your animal. So we expect at least one of us (husband or wife) to be home at all times and we expect your dog to be housebroken.
“Highly recommend! Brandy sent pictures and updates and spent extra time making sure Nora was comfortable and cared for. She treated my puppy like her own. I will definitely be back whenever I need a pup sitter! Thank you!”
“Ellie was great with Bean. She was very communicative and asked questions upfront to make sure that Bean would be well cared for. Ellie provided multiple pictures and I could tell that my pup was having a blast with her. Thank you so much!”
“Angeline was amazing! She sent pictures and kept us updated with how our dog Bambi was doing. She cleaned all our stuff we packed for her too: blankets, bowls, etc. She has a really nice space and backyard, and Bambi had so much fun!”
“My dog had a great time with Cameron and her dog Bo. I was updated daily on the fun they were having. She treated my dog like part of the family. We will definitely use Cameron in the future.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Helena and Chris made it the best experience possible. I had some concerns with leaving my high energy dog with someone else for a few days, but I felt immediately relieved after meeting Helena and Chris. They were super excited to spend time with my boy and made sure to spoil him with play and enrichment the whole time. Loved the pictures they sent, and will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs in the past; loved them and walked them every day. I’ve trained puppies before on how to walk on a lease and more. I’ll be able to give them lots of attention in the morning and afternoons/evenings. I work a flex schedule, but the flexibility allows me to make my own schedule. On the weekends I’ll be with your pet full time. I have a fenced front and back yard. I will walk them and feed them on their schedule. I’ll probably love them too much to and take too many pictures.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - College Hill
Julia was wonderful from start to finish. She was professional, communicative, and on time for everything, which made handing off our pup completely stress-free. Our dog had a great time running around her large fenced yard and came home happy and tired. We especially appreciated how understanding Julia was when our schedule changed and we ended up picking him up later than planned. She was gracious and flexible, and it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We'll absolutely be booking with Julia again!
Best sitter ever, I felt not only confident but happily satisfied that my pup was enjoying herself running around the yard and playing knowing that Destiny was looking after my little pup. She kept me well informed, communicated well and took a bunch of great photos of my girl and even printed some of them on Halloween stickers!! 10/10

I would highly recommend Caleb to everyone! At our meet and greet, he asked a ton of questions about my pup, Atticus, and took notes of his needs and habits. Atticus is a very itchy boy and the fact that he came home without any hotspots is a testament to Caleb's attentiveness to care. Given the opportunity, I would not hestitate to book with Caleb again. He's also a great dog photographer, to say the least!
Claire is a wonderful sitter. She's highly professional and communicative. I appreciated her updates, feedback, and tips for the future. The updates made it clear my pup was well loved and cared for and had developed a special bond with Claire's husband. Claire was flexible about extending my girl's stay when my plans changed due to a family emergency. I recommend her highly.
First time using Rover - just booked Anna for 2 weekends in a row and she was fantastic!! She did such a great job taking care of our furry family (dog & cat) in our home. We felt instantly comfortable with her during our meet & greet. She’s been a great communicator & even sent us pics while we were away. We are so grateful & definitely plan on booking with Anna again!!
Natalie is amazing. She was available at the last second even was able to take him in a day early. I was no questions asked and it wasn’t an issue at all. He was excited and happy to be with her the whole time so I appreciate Natalie and her service. It was amazing.
Cory, Matthew and their daughter were gentle and patient with our little timid dog. They were accommodating in feeding, treats, and bedtime routines to make her comfortable, and even gave her some snuggle time in the morning. They have a great setup in their home and back yard for a dog, and ours came home healthy and happy. We’d gladly ask this family to board our beloved pooch again!
Landen was awesome and very accommodating! Although I ended up canceling because I decided to bring my dog with me, Landen still went out of their way to come to my apartment, pick up the keys, returned it and was incredibly understanding throughout the whole process. I kept the booking because I really appreciated the time and effort they put in despite not getting to watch my dog. I would definitely book with Landen in the future!
Dez is an amazing pet sitter! I got regular updates about my pup and felt extremely at ease knowing she was well taken care of. All questions were answered promptly and Kibou had a blast on her little vacation wtih Dez. I would absolutely trust Dez to watch any pets any time! :)
10 stars! Elizabeth has a great love for dogs. Mochi was in the best care with her. She took him in like he was her own. She made sure he had so much fun with so many outings, doggy play dates, and snuggles. She had great communication throughout. We highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their College Hill home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your College Hill.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your College Hill sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
