“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.”
“Shiloh was amazing with my cat. He is normally very shy but warmed up to her immediately and even cuddled on her lap which he rarely does with strangers. He also needs daily medication which Shiloh was able to take care of. She’s very communicative and provided lots of photos during her visit. I would absolutely recommend her—she is so good with animals and it shows. Thank you so much Shiloh for taking such good care of my baby boy!”

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.

“Heather was fantastic! She responded quickly to the request for booking, asked and answered questions promptly, and provided photos of my pet at each visit. I would absolutely book her again. She truly saved me when my original plan for pet care fell through and I appreciate her help very much.”

About: 🐾 NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS 🐾 Premium 1-on-1 overnight care, midday drop-ins, and private walks tailored entirely to your small dog's routine. ☀️ Daytime Availability: Monday through Sunday, 10 AM to 4 PM, for dedicated dog walking and drop-in visits. 🏡 Overnight Care: Around-the-clock pet sitting hosted right inside your own home, so your baby stays safe, stress-free, and fully cared for while you travel. 🛡️ Fully insured and bonded for your peace of mind. 💛 For twelve years, I cared for my own little Pomeranian, Zo, twelve pounds of pure love. I cooked his meals, bathed him, groomed his coat, and gave him endless cuddles. As he grew older, I learned to care for him as a senior dog too, keeping up with his medication schedule and slowing our walks to match what his body needed. That season of my life taught me patience, gentleness, and compassion, and how to truly listen to what a small dog needs, even when they can't tell you in words. 🐶 I care for small dogs 20 lbs and under because I understand them in a way that only comes from years of loving one. When you leave your pup with me, I want you to feel confident they're somewhere warm, safe, and loved exactly like family. I respond quickly and keep my scheduling flexible, because I know how much it matters to reach your sitter when you need to. 🩺 For extra safety and peace of mind, I am Pet CPR & First Aid certified. ✨ Your little one deserves someone they can trust, someone who makes them feel safe and loved. Message me today to book a virtual meet and greet, where we'll talk through your pup's routine and needs before we meet in person. 🐾 Pet care is my business, and it's where I put my time and heart. My days tend to start slow and unrushed, which means when I'm with your pup, I'm fully present, not rushing or squeezing them into a chaotic day. This is especially true for overnight stays. When I'm caring for your pup overnight in the comfort of your own home, they're not one of many, they're the priority of my day and night. I like to get a workout in and enjoy the day at my own pace, but that time is built around your pup's routine, not the other way around. Since this is my main focus, I'm able to be flexible and responsive to what you and your pup need. Whether I'm there for a quick drop-in, a walk, or an overnight stay, your home and your pup's safety come first, every time. I treat your space with the same care and respect I'd want in my own home; doors and gates stay secure, your pup's routine stays consistent, and nothing about your home is disrupted while you're away. For walks and drop-ins, I follow the schedule and instructions you give me closely, feeding times, potty breaks, medication, and any little quirks your pup has. I always double-check leashes and gates before heading out, since small dogs can be quick, and I never let my guard down on a walk. For overnight stays, I settle in gently and keep things calm and familiar for your pup, sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure even with you away. I'm happy to help with oral medications and topical treatments, following any care instructions you provide closely. At this time, I'm not able to administer injectable medications. I am fully insured and bonded, as well as CPR & Pet First Aid certified, so if anything unexpected comes up, I'm prepared to handle it calmly. You'll always know your pup is safe, cared for, and loved like family, in the place they feel most comfortable: home.

Even though Amanda is working a difficult schedule these days, she was able to visit with George and take care of him as promised, including pictures taken during her visit. We're hoping Amanda will be able to get to know George better as she visits with him in the future and he becomes more comfortable with her. He is a tough nut to crack!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Deschutes is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 848 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Deschutes. 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
