“My dog, Lola, stayed with Jessica for 17 days through the holidays. She's a bit of an anxious dog, has spotty social skills, and super spoiled, so I was nervous about leaving her so long. We did a meet and greet first, and I was impressed with Jessica's calm demeanor and confident handling of the dogs in her care. Plus, Jessica has a huge fenced-in yard for the dogs to play in, so I knew Lola would love romping around off-leash there. Lola had a great time, and was able to make a few new friends during her stay, even improving her social skills around other dogs! Jessica sent photos and videos regularly, which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a safe and fun environment for their dog(s) while away.”
“Allison was really easy to work with. Her and her family took good care of my dog and responded timely with updates when I checked in. I would gladly work with her again in the future.”
“Matt is amazing! He took our doggos on a whim last minute booking due to an emergency! Sent pics and loved our babies like we do! Will definitely use Matt’s services again!”
“Haley and Graham was our first experience with Rover and it was a great one! So thankful they took such good care of our doggy and kept us updated the whole time!”
“Melani was great taking care of CalCal my goldendoodle. We met up beforehand to make sure my dog would get along with her dog. She sent many photos during the boarding. Would use her again; thanks Melani!”
“Mo is a great find! Our dog, Riki, loves boarding with her and her dog. She is very attentive and provides great updates on what is happening - playing, eating, walking (and pooing). I highly recommend and will be using her service into the future.”
“Thank you so much Mariia!!! You took such wonderful care of my 2 puppies. Thank you for all of the updates and pics. I can’t recommend Mariia enough. She is so sweet and caring. I will be booking with you again!”
“This was our first time booking Diana, and she was great! I was quite apprehensive as we just don't leave Romeo very often, and this was for a 2 week stay. But after 2 days of Diana's excellent communication (photos & videos), any worries were put to rest. Romeo even got to hang out with other clients and cats! I think possibly being around cats has changed his reaction to the many squirrels on our property! We will definitely be rebooking with Diana in the future. Thank you so much, Diana!!”
“Kristopher was the perfect match for Murph and was willing to accommodate us last minute. He was very reassuring and put me at ease since I hadn’t left Murph in a while. Murph came home happy and rested. Highly recommend and would love to use again if the situation arises.”
“Shari was a perfect host to my pup. She sent pictures and messages of reassurance regularly. It was the first time I left Roxy to travel. Though I missed her, I was comforted by Shari’s communications. She followed Roxy’s schedule so when I picked Roxy up her transition was seamless. Thank you so much, Shari. From both of us. I appreciate your caring for Roxy so much.”
“They were amazing! They played with Koda and Ásia so much, keeping our babies entertained, comfortable, and spoiled with cuddles. They even got Koda his favorite ball to play with while he was there. Communication was fantastic throughout. We couldn’t recommend them more!”
“Dory and I had a great experience with Liz. Her home is geared toward making sure that all dogs have a comfortable at-home experience. Liz was very flexible as my schedule was a bit unpredictable. We had a very good meet and greet session that inspired confidence. Everyone in the family is engeged with in ensuring Dory has the best stay possible. Thanks”
“Peter and his family were the perfect fit for our puppy! Peter was able to accommodate us at the very last minute and even cared for our puppy while he was experiencing some digestive troubles. We got daily photos of our pup having fun and being treated like part of the family. We would 100% book with Peter again!”
“Muffy, our 15-month-old, 11-pound cockapoo, apparently had a fine time with Siru! I could tell because Muffy was reluctant to leave. We received photos and updates from Siru, which are fun to get and always reassuring. Two thumbs up!”
“AMAZING! This was my first experience with Dogvacay and I'll never go with any other service in the future. I didn't have a single concern about leaving Herman for a week after I met Shawna. She was incredibly sweet and easy to interact with and sent me pics everyday, sometimes twice a day. She even took him for a hike! So cool. And he had a nice big area to run around in with her little dog as well. I also had to add an extra day because my flight was canceled and she was totally accommodating. Great price; great service; great experience. I literally couldn't have been more pleased:)”
“My little doggie couldn't have been in better hands than with Katie. My pup is a very nervous, frighten little thing with strangers but Katie, Mat, and Finn brought her out of her shell. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Angelica and Bruce took great care of our dog for the weekend. It was really clear from the moment they met our pup that they love dogs. They took him on tons of walks and gave him plenty of attention. We felt extremely comfortable he was in great hands and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a dogsitter in the area.”

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.
