About: I grew up in an animal-loving environment, and I have been a cat-mom since 2016. I love to spoil my babies and I want to spoil yours too! I worked in vet-med for a short time, and I have lots of experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm particularly skilled in befriending anxious cats and dogs. I have experience in giving oral medication, administering eye/ear drops, and trimming cat claws. I'm currently available 7 days a week and my schedule is very flexible. I have lots of time to dedicate to caring for your pet. I enjoy walking daily, and I really enjoy playing with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. My husband and I have two black cats at home, and we treasure them dearly. They get a lot of attention, play time, treats, and snuggles. I am comfortable spending time with your pet in your home, feeding them per your directions, giving any necessary medications, and taking them out for walks/exercise. I can drive your dog to a park or dog park, if desired. I will happily give your pet snuggles and scritches if they want them, but I also respect every animal's personal boundaries. I pay close attention to behaviors and body language that tell me if they feel safe and what kind of attention they want.
“Riley did a fantastic job taking care of our senior Great Pyrenees. Our dog is pretty friendly but instantly took a shine to Riley and the update photos we got showed how at ease the old guy was around his new sitter! Will definitely be booking again!”


About: I've owned, loved, and been around animals my whole life - dogs, cats, and miscellaneous farm animals. Growing up in the country and having animal based chores from a young age helped me develop a love for animals, tolerance and patience, and the capability to care for a variety of animals in a variety of settings and environments. Closely raised alongside a veterinarian uncle taught me the value and importance of animals in our lives (and occasionally even provide assistance to a him in action). I'm also quite flexible with many things. While in my care, I can walk/exercise (or be absolutely lazy with your animal). Depending on what you request, as long as it's within reason, I am open to catering to your wishes and will do what you ask of me to keep you and your pet happy! :) ie. although I marked "allowed on beds/furniture", I understand this is not for everyone. I personally love having animals near me but also understand the importance of not allowing in my home, what is not allowed in your home. Also, I have access to my family's property out in the country where I can take your dog on hikes away from the public, run freely in large fields that are fenced in at the property line, and explore the great outdoors with them for an even more special experience while you're away! Experience (in general): listed 28 years as I've closely helped family members since ~at least~ 8 yrs of age. My sitting history mostly includes requests to house/dog sit for friends and family members over the years (both in their home or in mine). The "official" dog sitting experience is less, as this is my first time creating a professional sitting profile and I am excited to start work with people outside of my circle! :) I only marked the days I am off work completely as my available dates. These are the days in which I can provide the best/full attention care. I can provide care on work days, as long as you are okay with me working around my work schedule (ie. early mornings/evenings or nights). Otherwise... Consistently, I'm off every Fri, Sat, and Sunday. Weekdays: never hurts to check! I have many weekdays off, but they vary and depend on my office's hours. I know my days off in advance and can plan accordingly. My office closes for 7-19 days at a time 4x/year (Feb, May/June, Sept, Dec). Plus, any major holidays, we are closed and I may be available. I will take necessary precautions to keep your animal safe and cared for. I have a yard with no fence and would keep them on a leash while taking them out or on walks. If while in the country on family property, as long as we both feel comfortable with it and your dog's behavior, leash wearing is whatever you prefer. I will of course put them back on if I feel the need to. Although I'm easy going, I'm also a reliable and responsible person with common sense and enough experience with my own animals to properly care for your pet. I will always do what's needed in any situation to protect your pet and keep them safe. After knowing an animal longer and understanding their behavior/tendencies, sure, I can ease up some - but will always take more precautions at first while I am still getting to know them. And again, in any case, it's whatever you are comfortable with and would like. Details can be discussed and figured out along the way. For example, if your animal gets uncomfortable in unknown places - I am more than happy to come to you and care for them in your home! If they need this medicine at this time, you've got it! If they do better when you take them for a 45 min walk and then snuggle them for an hour, sure! If you need them to eat these specific things, at these specific times, and anything else you may need - just chat it out. I'm sure we can work the details out - and if not, I'll just say no and ask that you find another sitter who may suit you and your needs better. We'll figure it out.
About: My whole life I’ve always had at least one dog! I currently have 3 dogs who live at my parents’ house and I regularly go home and take care of the 3 of them. The youngest (Kona) has Addison’s disease and needs a pill once a day so I have some experience caring for dogs with special needs. I also raised Kona from puppyhood and taught her how to sit, shake, lie down and high five! I’m currently a full time college student studying human physiology! I have my schedule set up so I have breaks in between all my classes allowing time to go home and hang out with pups and take them out for potty breaks! I currently live in an apartment with no other animals so your fur baby will be my top priority! I also live near multiple parks so potty breaks and walks will never be an issue!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was ten years old. My little sister and I were quite the entrepreneurs, and created our own pet-sitting business in our neighborhood, taking care of our neighborhood pets. I absolutely love taking care of animals and am highly interested in a career working with them. I also have a fur baby of my own! I currently am working part-time and taking a gap semester, so I generally have open availability and can make time to stay overnight or drop by easily! I currently do not do boarding, however I do house sitting and drop-in visits, giving your pets the safety of their own home. Every pet that I take care of I treat like one of my own!

About: Growing up I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home and I’ve loved every each one of them. I currently have 2 cats and 3 other in the house from my roommates. my youngest is a 5 month old orange tabby named boots and my oldest is a 8 year old calico named Nora. I’ve taken care of rotties, huge huskies, German shepherds, border collies, chihuahuas along with many many cats! I’m ready to give your pets the love and care that they need! ❤️ I am currently working a full time job, but I work 12 hour shifts 3 days a week so I have 4 days available a week to tend to your pets! I have very playful kittens in home and a huge area around me to take your dogs on plenty of walks! I also have multi dog parks around my apartment!

“Jacqueline is the best!! I have a notoriously difficult (shy and reactive) dog that she handled and cared for very well. She graciously navigated the maze of a gate set up we have for him. She sent timely updates with pictures and is very easy to work with. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone who loves their pets.”
“Whitney was awesome and followed directions perfectly, even after I had to change it up because the cats were fighting the night before I left. Her communication was great and she asked thoughtful questions. The cats were happy and healthy when I returned.”

About: With 3 senior pets of my own, I'm used to measuring and giving medications as well as looking out for signs of ill health. I am comfortable with pets who are anxious or take time to warm up to new people. Avoiding direct eye contact, a low, calm voice, and refraining from quick gestures is how I like to meet all animals and we can go from there. I work from home and I have a lot of flexibility during the regular 9 to 5 day, most days of the week. Need a quick afternoon walk for your dog? I'm usually around! When I go to a pet's home I acknowledge that this is their space and I prioritize their sense of well-being, comfort, and respect their boundaries and those of their human family members.
About: My family has had pets my whole life, I owned my own horse until I was 16. I've cared for a multitude of dogs, cats, animals, really all of my life. I work remote and can be around to care for your pets in a full time, hands on capacity. I have house sat, pet sat for friends and acquaintances over the years. I miss animals and enjoy visiting my parents 3 dogs when I visit them, which inspired me to help others that need someone to care for their home or pets. I have been a remote worker for the last 8 years and traveled as a nomad for 7 of those years, I'm highly flexible on what environment I live/work and exist in. I am currently residing in Eugene, OR and want to house/pet sit, as I have no pets of my own currently and miss spending time with amazing animals. I'm a very attentive pet person, always staying outside with my dads dogs, to play, hang out and spend time with them. My family has owned a variety of large and small dog breeds, & cats. I have cat sat in the past and enjoy playing with cats and chilling with them. I'm a very clean, neat person, keeping a space tidy, helping my dad by giving a bath to his Jack Russell Terrier whenever I visit, as his dog has always loved and trusted me. I enjoy time with pets, and don't crowd them letting them feel comfortable.

About: Hi, I’m Liz! I know how important it is to find pet care that’s both reliable and affordable. That’s why I offer caring, dependable pet sitting at a price that works for your family! I document everything, even the funny moments 😆. I’m not afraid of dog poop or quirky behaviors. I’ll give your furball all the love and attention they need from walks and playtime to belly rubs and snuggles. Pets bring me so much joy, and I’m here to make sure they’re happy and cared for while you’re away. I’ve worked with both high and low energy dogs, shy and extroverted. I love every moment. If you’re looking for trustworthy care that fits your budget, I’d be honored to help! I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to provide pet care on weekends and any day after 2 PM. I can work with pet owners to find a schedule that fits their needs and ensure their pets receive reliable, attentive care and plenty of love while they are away. My pupper is living with my parents and not with me, so if you have a furball that doesn’t like other animals. It’s all good here 😌👍. I always make sure to give animals space and to not force interaction. Regarding other homes, I follow the moto of: If they don’t even go near to smell you, do not go near them. Wait for that moment to come. 🍀

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 have three beautiful cats at home that are super energetic and snuggly! My family had cats while I was in high school and I love being around all animals! Just moved to Eugene from Tennessee and currently have open availability! I’m an early riser so if you need a dog walked in the morning, I’ve got you! I have a car and am willing to walk or bus as well! Our house is plentiful of cat trees, window perches and tunnels! We give them fresh food and water every day and they all get individualized attention! I will do the exact same for your pets!
About: Having a lifetime's worth of caring for my own pets gives me a wealth of experience and knowledge with critters of all shapes and sizes. Family, friends, and neighbors have entrusted me to feed, play with, and even just check in on their pets and homes since I was a child. When you can't be there, I am happy to make sure your buddy gets all the love, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Rest assured that whether your pet is an old friend or a new addition, I will provide customized care - from snuggles to medication, walks to post-surgical care, and everything in between! I have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your pet(s)! My availability includes regularly scheduled visits and drop ins are welcome. I can also be available on short notice. I enjoy providing conscientious, customized, and individualized care. Please share with me any favorite games, treats, and rewards! Trust, safety, satisfaction, and attention to detail are my highest priorities.

“Jennifer was so amazing to work with! We had an emergency and needed coverage and when I put the request through she called me right away to not only see what met my/her needs but most importantly the needs of our dog. You can tell she has a true passion for caring for animals. I am so grateful Jennifer was there to help us out when we were traveling to make us feel comfortable and reassured that our dog was happy when we were out for the evening. I received thorough updates and she really went above and beyond with her care and attention. Thank you so much Jennifer!!”
About: I have 6+ years of animal rescue work experience and I have raised 2 dogs of my own. This includes training puppies, supplying medications and assistance to pets with medical issues, caring for cats, and everything in between! I’ve been a house/dog/cat sitter for family, friends, and friends of friends for well over a decade. I have been through formal dog training classes and I would be happy to supply references from prior clients upon request. I work remotely 4 days a week, and in office on Tuesdays. For housesitting, your pet must be okay to be at home alone between 4-6 hours. If your pet needs constant care (meaning they cannot be home alone for at least 4 hours) please let me know and we can discuss options. Beyond that, I would be happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs during a meet and greet to make sure they get all the love and attention they need. I have worked with many types of dogs and cats, so I can accommodate a wide variety of needs. Does your dog need help with training? I’d be happy to work with them while walking/sitting/etc! Is your pet skittish or perhaps they come on a little strong? I have met and worked with 100’s of different rescue dogs who come from all kinds of backgrounds. I love and care for pets of all kinds and am ready to work with you and your animal to find a comfortable, positive routine for when you have to be away!

About: Hi! My name is Stella, and I’m a senior at the University of Oregon. I’m looking for dog walking and cat or dog sitting opportunities to stay busy while I’m away from my own pets. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, senior dogs, dog walking, and managing households with multiple animals. In my free time, I enjoy gardening, surfing, trying new restaurants and cafés, and reading. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available before and after classes for walks, feeding, and check-ins, with full availability on weekends for more flexible care. I prioritize creating a safe and trustworthy environment for every pet in my care. In clients’ homes, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency. I ensure pets receive plenty of attention and supervision while keeping their environment clean. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eugene
Joshua is the best. My dog can be super protective but the two of them clicked immediately, feeding off Joshua's energy and dog-expertise. My kitty is nervous in her own ways but I always coming back knowing that she felt safe with his presence as well. I can't recommend Joshua enough, he has been such a savior when I have to be away from my two favorite critters and gives me peace of mind with updates and reassurances that he can handle whatever my goobers throw his way.

I highly recommend Sophia. Excellent communicator and provided regular updates, photos of Junie. Gave updates on how Junie’s day was going when she drops in and how she spent her time with her. Junie was in a great company and hands while I was away. Sophia was timely and very responsible during her drop in visits with Junie.

Not only did Maya respond very quickly, she took us on super last minute after our dog sitter had to cancel. She is a delight. Super timely, willing to make early morning visits, and as an extra bonus was able to get our elderly picky eater to eat the entire time we were away. She sent pictures and a brief synopsis of our dog’s well-being every visit. We can’t recommend her enough!! Thanks Maya.

I needed someone to watch my dog while she recovered from an injury and Natasha was a great help. She made sure Melon was leaving her stitches alone while giving her lots of love and attention. I would recommend Natasha to anyone who needs pet care and will definitely ask for her help if we need it again.

Kate was so wonderful! She helped us out with a last minute request and took excellent care of our dog. She sent great photos and kept us up to date on all of her visits. We really appreciated how sweet she was to our dog and us as well. She also helped keep our flowers alive during the very hot weather. We hope to use her again!!

Bridget is the best! My boys warmed up to her immediately. She sent photos of them each day and made sure they had everything they needed. Her response time was prompt and she’s reachable! I trust my boys in her hands anytime and will absolutely be booking her again :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Eugene is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 936 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Eugene. 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Eugene choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Eugene with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
