“Danielle is FANTASTIC. We have been fortunate enough to have her care for our rescue baby for 3 months now on a weekly basis. She is great with communication, and goes above and beyond for our doggo. Highly recommend!”
About: I believe the best thing about pet sitting is offering pets the same love and attention that their owners give them. I am easy going, very reliable and will follow all instructions for your pet’s care. I care for both domestic and farm animals. ❤️ I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. That makes it easier for drop in visits. When I stay over, I may need to leave for an errand but I will be at your home as expected. I respect your privacy and will care for your home like it is my own. I depend on repeat bookings so you can expect the best service!
About: I’ve worked at an animal boarding facility for a year. I have experience with giving dogs medications, feeding, walking, enrichment and grooming! I’ve also been pet sitting for 2 years. I currently have an open schedule so anytime I am available! I want to focus myself more on animals and the opportunity to take care of them! I treat all of my clients with the same respect I would want them to treat me! I will love your animals and take care of them just like they’re my own!
“Kelsie was fantastic! She was very timely, posted photos of each drop-in visit, and described each event that occurred during the visit. My wife and I highly recommend her!”
About: My experience started with our family dog, I learned to care for Maggie with love compassion and an attention to detail for her unique needs. I moved on to pet sitting my friends dogs making sure to play, brush, and walk them regularly. I have experience administering oral medication, training, and clear dog communication (approach from the side, start with a pet on the chest, show an open hand etc.) I've volunteered with the humane society for 2 years and have experience dealing with dogs that are traumatized and timid. I have a special bond with dogs and always have their best interests at heart. I'm available on a daily, weekly or monthly basis depending on my clients needs. I am able to work around your schedule to make your pet care needs easier than ever I don’t have space to host but I am able to provide in-home care for your furry friends at your location if convenient for you.
About: I am a mom and overnight-shift caregiver with a wide variety of availability. Let’s see if we can make something work for you and your family. 🩷 I currently have a cat of my own named Luci who is 8 years old and a sweet lazy goofball. I grew up surrounded by various pets that I helped care for. Small, large, furry, or covered in scales; I can make friends with them and hopefully you as well! I'm familiar with the fun basic dog tricks and training, as well as basic oral medication administration. I am not professionally trained by any means, however. If your pet is a bit on the skittish or aggressive side, please let me know so I can be best prepared, it doesn’t mean I will turn down your request! Please never hesitate to reach out with a booking request or question. I am a Mama of 2 kids looking for some time out of the house and on my feet, all while taking care of your fuzzy family member. I have a schedule listed, but am happy to make exceptions and work with and for you and your family! I cannot currently offer services out of my own home as a renter. However, I do have a car and a set of legs! I'm happy to make my way to you (within reasonable distance, of course) and help your family-members that don't have thumbs for those pesky door-knobs and crate-locks! I can help fill their bowls, stretch those legs, and get them to the right zone for potty-breaks.
“I recently asked Amber to check in on my kitty when I was gone for a few days. She was very responsive and sent me pictures from her visit. I would definitely rebook her in the future!”
“Sandra was a great fit for cat, Daisy! From our first meet and greet, to all of the daily updates, I felt comforted in leaving our pet in Sandra’s care. She spent time getting to know our cat and Daisy warmed up to her better than any sitter we’ve had before! I will definitely be asking Sandra for help in the future.”
About: Former dog owner (Luna & Scout) — long daily walks, parks, overnight boarding, feeding routines. Reliable, responsive, I'll treat your dog like my own in Springfield. Flexible and reliable, I always make pet care a priority in my routine. Whether it's daily walks, check-ins, or playtime, your pet’s needs come first. I prioritize safety and comfort by creating a pet-friendly environment. I follow routines, use positive reinforcement, and ensure pets feel secure and loved at all times.
About: I've cared for senior dogs as well as puppies. All are personal animals, but, I believe that's an advantage. Being familiar with animals on a personal level has made me more empathetic and gained the ability to really connect with animal's. Wonderfully! I can care for a pet multiple times a week. My current schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work with you on hours! I would prefer to care for animals in their own environment. I understand some pets feel more secure in a familiar environment. I want to provide the most enjoyable experience for the owner as well as the pet.
About: I’m very responsible and great with animals. I have taken care of my cat, Baby, since I was 6! I also have a lot of pet sitting experience! I am always the go-to person for my friends and family. I am available Saturdays-Mondays! I am very flexible! I am also okay with late nights! Whatever works best for you and your best friend ! :) I am available to take care of your pets at your house! I can either drop in or stay there! Whatever is most comfortable to you :)
About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Shealea and I have over two years combined experience working with dogs. I was a handler as well as a team leader at one of Eugene's premier dog boarding facilities where I gained a plethora of knowledge and experience in all things canine related! My approach is to treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. "Dog's are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." I am a SAHM so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs! Please message me if you have any pet care needs outside of my scheduled availability. :) I treat each pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I am attentive, knowledgeable and understand the importance having a solid line of communication with pet parents.
“Alisa was fantastic! As our first time using Rover, she made sure to stop by to get a walkthrough first and was so great with our Archie. She played with him and sent us pictures of him and made sure the house was all locked up when she left. Will definitely use her again!”
“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

Willow watched our house and animals while we went overseas for over 2 weeks. She did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, the chickens and Baba the turkey. She also was in charge of keeping our gardens watered during super hot tempertures. And she managed to keep all my bird feeders and hummingbird feeders well maintained. It was a lot to expect from someone, but Willow proved to be the right choice for this job. I am very thankful that we found her. I will definitely use her again for our next outing. Thank you.
Kelsee is always such a phenomenal dog sitter! Our pups are so happy that she snuggles and plays with them during her drop in visits to our home. She is so thoughtful, thinking of the smallest details and she always sends the most fun pictures of our pups. We recently had one of our pups pass and Kelsee was so understanding of our changes in routines as the dynamics have been so different since losing a beloved and important member of our pack. We never have a worry when Kelsee is taking care of our dogs and she is the only sitter we ever want to use!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cottage Grove is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 872 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cottage Grove. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cottage Grove. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
