“Kevin is excellent and would highly recommend him. He is very comfortable and caring with animals and clearly enjoys being around them. His report cards are very thorough. Recently Kevin watched our cats and we had a last minute medical situation that involved giving one cat eyedrops. Kevin handled it smoothly and I felt good knowing that he was caring for our cats.”
About: I have taken care of many animals! From dogs to cats, even horses and goats. I have always had a pet and love to snuggle! I currently work full time. But have flexible days off so just reach out and let's see how we can work together to make your life easier owning a pet! I am happy to offer supervised yard time and walk your pets on leash if you would like! I will stick to your schedule, and what you prefer!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15. I’ve also had experience training puppies as well as walking dogs. I love to spend time with the dogs I am watching outside as well as snuggling up with them in the house. I also enjoy playing with cats and am responsible with keeping up with cleaning litters boxes, making sure all pets have plenty of water, and they are fed in time according to their schedule. Your pet will be loved and taken care of as if they were my own while you are away. :) I am a current college athlete working a part-time summer job in Bend, I will be in Bend until AUGUST 20th as I head back to school in Washington. I will have time to do drop-ins to check on your babies as well as give them potty breaks and/or take your dogs on walks (if your dog has experience running, I’d also love to do that!). I can also stay at your house if you need someone over night. My schedule will depend on the week, but I will keep my Rover calendar updated with my available times/days, and I am open to having a regular walking schedule with clients. I am not open to taking animals at my own place as I am currently in a on-campus apartment with not a lot of space (especially for dogs). But I will take very good care of your house whether that is me doing drop-ins or staying at your house. I can water plants or complete other tasks if you need while I am staying there. I can crate your animals while I am away if you need, and I will always make sure to stop by every 4-5 hours (depends on day, I will have basketball training, class, or work) to let them have a potty break and to ensure they have plenty of water as well as being fed on time. Your home and animals will be well taken care of!
“Rachel, took care of our large breed dog Trax. She was friendly, helpful and professional. It really made us feel at ease while we were away. We highly reccommend Rachel to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Caitlin is amazing! She is so responsible, kind, and caring for our pets. It is clear that she truly loves animals, and she is so attentive to their needs. We had a fantastic meet-and-greet with her, and she took the time to ensure that our pets felt comfortable around her. She communicated with us often when petsitting, and she followed all our instructions. I cannot recommend Caitlin enough!!! 🤩”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring to every pet. I take time to really understand their routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for—not just watched. I have experience with puppies and can help reinforce basics like potty training, leash walking, and positive behavior in a patient, encouraging way. I’m also great with senior pets, making sure they’re comfortable, sticking to routines or medications, and adjusting care to match their pace. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos so you always have peace of mind. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they’re happy, healthy, and well cared for. 🐾 As a disabled veteran, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available 24/7 and have the flexibility to give pets consistent, reliable care throughout the day and night. In my apartment: I create a calm, pet-friendly space where they can relax and feel at ease. I stick closely to their usual feeding schedule, walks, and sleep routine so nothing feels out of place. There’s plenty of supervised playtime, attention, and a safe area for rest. I keep things clean, structured, and low-stress so it really feels like a home away from home.
“Brooke did a great job juggling the needs of two 18-year old cats and their meds for four days. She was prompt, a great communicator and my kitties seemed relaxed and happy when i returned home to them. High marks!”
“We would highly recommend Leeya to watch your furry friends! She is professional and has great communication skills. Our pups can be a little skittish around new people, but by day two, they had warmed up. We will definitely use Leeya again.”
“We love Caitlin! She is thorough, thoughtful and a true caregiver for our dog while we are gone. She goes above and beyond our expectations every time and is an excellent communicator. There is no doubt that we will try to rebook Caitlin next time we need someone!”
About: I am very active and will walk dogs, play fetch, and can take them on runs. If needed, I will wash the dogs after activities to ensure everything will stay clean in the home. I am organized and will keep the dogs on schedule for meals and potty breaks. My father bred labs for my entire life and my experience with taking care of animals goes way back to my childhood! I work remote, and have a pretty flexible schedule. That being said, I can tend to the dogs as need be and bring them on walks as well. I grew up with lots of different types of dogs from toy yorkie to shepherds and I have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs.
About: 18-year dog mom in Bend, Oregon with hands-on experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors needing extra patience, mobility support, and medications. Although my own sweet pup recently passed away, caring for animals continues to mean so much to me, and I truly value being able to provide loving, attentive care through Rover. I’m patient, calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s routine, comfort, and unique personality, with experience creating safe, supportive environments where dogs can feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home in Bend, Oregon. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day In my Bend home, pets enjoy a secure fenced yard, supervised playtime, and a calm environment with my gentle senior dog and cat for friendly companionship. I follow each pet’s routine closely. In clients’ homes, I maintain familiar schedules, feeding, walks, medications, and lots of attentive care.
“Rebecca did a great job checking in on my kitten over a long weekend. I felt relaxed knowing he was in good hands. She took the cutest photos and I loved getting them after every check in. Rebecca is very reliable, trustworthy, and good at communicating. Your animal will be in good hands here!”
“Anna did such an incredible job taking care of my pups on their first stay without family. I knew they were in great hands and the communication was amazing during the visits. Thank you so much for letting me feel comfortable being away, Anna! Highly, highly recommend.”
“Erin provided wonderful care for my cats! She has great communication & my babies are lucky to have such a caring sitter. She has a calming and reassuring presence and will win over the shyest of cats. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I have had dogs all my life and have a lot of experience caring for them. I currently work from home and take my personal dog on 2-3 walks/day and would love to either include your dog on a walk or take them separately. She is good around the majority of dogs but I can walk your dog separately with absolutely no issues! I am always highly aware on walks and carry pepper spray for humans and other dogs. I know what to do when attacked by another dog and how to keep your dog safe. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to take your pups on a walk in the park. I live in the NW part of town. I can easily walk your dog from your home or load them up in my car for a bigger adventure to a park and more!
About: For over 49 years I have lived loved and cared for dogs. I have lots of experience from puppies to seniors. Medically challenged as well. I was recently forced into retirement and not working. I am available 7 days a week and look forward to loving your dog as my own I am free to care for your furbaby in the comfort of their own home. I believe this reduces their stress of you being away.
“Megan was awesome. Very friendly, responsive, kind and knowledgeable about our dog’s medicines. We appreciated her to help us out and sending us sweet pictures of our dog. Thank you Megan!”
“Megan accepted my request for last minute pet care and I could not be more thankful. She was easy to communicate with, provided good detail about her visits and my kitties liked her immediately. ❤️”

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.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
