“Lea was awesome! Our little Ruby is very high energy and Lea did an amazing job making her feel at home! I got pictures and updates throughout the stay! We will for sure be contacting Lea again!”
“Chris and Angela were so amazing that I can’t even properly express how grateful I am that they were the ones caring for our Happy boy while we were away. Happy was so well cared for and spoiled with attention, snuggles, and belly scratches. They have a lovely family who loved on our pup as well and their house is a dog’s paradise! Chris sent so many pictures and videos that I stopped feeling so guilty he couldn’t come on our trip with us. Thank you again!! I would always book with Chris and Angela if I can :)”
“Saawan and Kangna are the best! We’re so thankful we found them. They cared for Rosie with so much love. They were thoughtful and kind and very prompt with all communication.”
“Everything went so well! My dog loved Barbara’s huge backyard and comfy sofa. I loved the great care my pup got, including a chance to sleep in the big bed. Pictures and updates a couple of times a day let me know all was well. Thank you Barbara!”
“Vanessa was wonderful!! She took on our pack of 4 that she had never watched before for us to go get married over the weekend. She sent lots of photo updates, was great at staying in touch and communicating despite my failure to respond at times, as she understood we were incredibly busy! She was also very flexible and helpful on the Sunday of pickup! The dogs clearly had a great time, were well cared for, and very tired when we picked them up which was ideal, as we were similarly exhausted. We highly recommended Vanessa, she will take fantastic care off your fur babies!! Thank you, Vanessa!!”
About: I've been caring for friends' dogs for the past eight years, ever since I became a dog mom myself. Because I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and potty breaks throughout the day. I'm the kind of dog mom who throws my pup a birthday party every year, complete with treats, decorations, and lots of love. Dogs are truly part of the family in my house. Hi! My name is Kendra, and I'm a marketing professional who works remotely from home full-time. I have an 8-year-old Goldendoodle named Henry, who has spent many happy days with Rover sitters over the years. Now that I'm working from home, I'm excited to provide the same level of care and attention to other dogs that I always wanted for my own. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood and features a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to explore and play. I believe in regular updates and clear communication, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“Steve made sure our senior special needs dog was as comfortable as can be. His home is well equipped for dogs to enjoy their favorite indoor and outdoor pastimes and I really appreciated his frequent communication, cute photos, and obvious affection for my sweet pup.”
“Thank you so much for watching Kava!! Gage was very kind and available even for a last minute booking. He updated us with photos during our dogs stay. We will definitely book again! Thank you!”
“Very accommodating and helped us out last minute and has a smaller chill and friendly husky. Easy transition drop off and pick up with a gated back yard. Thanks a lot!”
“Christina was amazing with Bruce! He came back after four nights away and was tired and happy from all of the playing he did with Christina. Highly recommend her!”
“We love Nicole and feel Finn has the best care with her when we travel! It allows us to enjoy being away even long periods (10-14 days) and trust he’s in good hands.”
“Lajetta took such great care of our pup noodles while our family went on vacation. She treats our pup not just like a dog but like a little human! She provided a luxurious room for our pup with plenty of toys and walks. I loved seeing all the pictures she sent us everyday and always responded promptly to any messages I sent. Noodles got to socialize with other small dogs her size which was wonderful. Gotta to admit a little jealous how much my puppy loves her in such a short time.”
“Heather is great. She is professional, personable, and did a great job taking care of our 4-month-old pup when we were away for a week this summer. She sent us frequent updates & photos all week. We are very grateful for her and would highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“If I could leave 100 stars I would! Anu was so kind and took such good care of our dog! She was constantly sending me pictures and videos and I could tell she enjoyed having our dog around. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need another dog sitter!!”
“Lyssette was extremely communicative, and my pup loved her and her dog. Her yard is huge, Valkyrie had the run of the whole downstairs and was super happy. Will definitely use her again!”
“I appreciated the care that my dog recieved while staying at Sandy's. She sent me daily photo's and status updates. I would definitely recommend Sandy and will use her in the future.”

Allison and her family were fantastic! They were so caring and loving to our dog Bella! She for her ACL 4 days before we had to leave. Allison was more than happy to giver her her meds twice a day. I got pictures and updates everyday. Bella was excited to see us come home but obviously was very loved while we were gone as she was a happy girl when we picked her up. We are booking another stay with her in September!

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 .
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
