“Positively amazing! Met with me on short notice and took care of my pup later that same week. Good communication throughout and even went the extra mile to come back and let my dog go to the bathroom later in the evening at no extra charge! Would recommend 10/10 dog sitter! She is a life saver”

“This was our first time using Rover. It is a bit scary letting someone in your home you never met, but we couldn't be more happy with Kaia. She took very good care of our cat, Rocky. She played with him, cleaned his litterbox, cleaned the cat dish, and sent us daily updates and pictures. We came home and the house was spotless and the cat was happy. I can only recommend her to anyone who needs pet sitting service in Forest Grove, OR. She even walked to our house on a Sunday to take care of our cat because the local bus service doesnt service the community on Sundays.”

About: It’s hard to find someone to trust to watch your fur babies. I’m hoping to give you peace of mind when you are away. I can be flexible to a pet’s needs including exercise, socialization, potty schedule and medication regiments. I can’t think of a time in my life we didn’t have animals. As a child I wanted to be a Veterinarian. I worked at an animal hospital for a few years in my early 20’s. It was a great experience. I live close to a dog park and Forest Park or will take your dog on a run if needed. Also, there is also an emergency vet clinic nearby; just in case. A daily check in can be provided including photos. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!! I work from home so my pet routine with Lilly and Winston grounds me. Especially for morning and evening feedings and daily walks. As they are getting older our activity has slowed but I’m ready to meet the exercise levels for any pet that I’m sitting. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs. I have been working with animals nearly my whole life so adding new animals to our pack is second nature.
“Emily has been my only pet sitter I work with, she is been super responsible and realizable while I am away and very detail-oriented when caring for my marshmellow. I appreciate her dedication all this time, will keep connecting!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals on dairy farms and my dad's veterinarian practice. I have always had cats and dogs and sometimes a turtle. I have been taking care of friend's and family pets as well as a horse occasionally. I am currently between positions as a professional educator and am looking to fill my time and make some extra money. I am usually available all days. We have a fenced yard and 2 65 pound rescue mutts and 1 rescue calico cat. I only walk dogs on fixed leashes and will inspect your home and clean up any potential accidents.
“Alaina is the best! She was very patient and understanding with my shy pup. She was also amazing with my elderly pup and was very observant of their behavior. She really helped me feel less stressed about being away from all three of my pups.”
“Jenn took care of my 10-year-old Snowshoe Siamese rescue for 5 days. She was communicative, knowledgeable and professional. I look forward to working with Jenn again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and I’m deeply committed to providing the same level of love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, handling leashed walks, and maintaining a calm, safe environment. My priority is making sure your pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve recently moved back to the Portland area to finish school online, so my schedule is wide open to care for your pets! Text me and let me know how I can adjust my schedule to fit your needs! I prioritize following all instructions as their written, from feeding schedules, walks, to adhering to any medical needs your pet may have. I will provide the utmost care and respect for your home and animals to ensure everyone feels at ease.

About: I have experience with house sitting both large and small dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise and care. I also can do plant care as well I currently do doordash and art commissions from home so I have pretty open availability right now! I do have two cats at home so I still need to check in on them as well. I always make sure everything is tidy and that each pet gets equal amount of care. Set daily and weekly routines for them and always check over them to make sure there's nothing abnormal.
About: Hi! I’m Samantha, a friendly and compassionate animal lover who wants to spread my kindness to the world. I have had a passion for animals ever since I was a little girl, from volunteering at shelters to even fostering rescues and to now adopting my own animals. I have over 10+ years of animal care experience from caring for neighbors pets, house sitting and even simple dog walks. I have a dog of my own, who always keep me on my toes and reminds me to live life more freely. My love for animals continues to grow and I am always up for the challenge of learning new ways of how to help animals in need. My quiet, calm and patient nature is well suited for working with animals of any kind. I can bring a sense of stability and trust to each family in need and I am looking forward to spreading my love and experience to all of those who are delighted to be apart of a team together! I currently am only working part time at the moment so I have extra hours within my week to provide drop in visits or walks when necessary. I always go above and beyond for each animal I care for, reassurance is key when it comes to any kind of relationship especially when it comes to new ones so I will always do my best to ensure the owner and pet are both happy.
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors cats and dogs since I was 11 years old. I make sure to take in account every pets individual needs and make sure to care for them as if they are my own! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available week days and weekends. I can work mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I only provide drop in visits. I do not let pets stay in my own home. However, I will make sure all doors are closed and toys and food are cleaned up after sitting in your home. This will ensure a clean and safe environment for your pet
About: I just recently moved to Oregon from Las Vegas. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from high energy puppies to mellow seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with pets whether we’re out on walks or hanging out at home. I’m big on clear communication, keeping routines consistent, and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m new to Oregon and have full availability right now, including weekdays, weekends, and evenings. Happy to be flexible based on your dog or cat’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving meds, or creating a calm space, I do my best to keep things stress free. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and honest check-ins.
About: Returning to Rover and excited to get to know some new furry friends. I’ve had experience taking care of the fur children of a good number of close friends and clients on Rover. They have relied on me for house sitting, dog walking, and drop-ins. My living situation has recently changed to apartment living so unfortunately, I can’t currently board pets at my home. In the interest of complete transparency, I am currently between jobs and working independently through DoorDash. I need to meet weekly finance goals to sustain myself, but I am flexible and will make taking care of your pet a priority. I have professional emergency medical training as an EMT and trauma technician, including CPR, emergency response, and patient care. I am familiar with first aid principles and continue to expand my knowledge of pet-specific care. I was raised with pets, taking care of them growing up. I had 2 dogs, a cat, two hamsters, a gecko, and a box turtle which I cared for independently. As of my current season of life, I am busy but very flexible to make pet care a priority. Unfortunately, I currently cannot board pets at my residence. However, I have vast experience in house sitting. I can do extended stays overnight or just drop-ins as needed, apart from pet care, I am absolutely willing to maintain other needs of your home while you’re away such as watering plants, maintaining or caring for tank/enclosure animals, farm animals or other house needs. I’m highly respectful of your living space and self-sufficient in providing you with peace of mind for your home and animals while you are away.
About: Growing up my family had multiple dogs ranging from all ages and sizes so I’ve always been pretty familiar with caring for them. As an adult I am unfortunately not a dog owner (yet), but my roommate has a family dog which she brings over every few weeks and I help care for him as if he was my own. As a career nanny I’ve really only worked with families who have dogs and although its never technically been a part of my job description I’ve always been trusted to take both kiddos & doggos out for walks. Nothing would make me happier than caring for your fur baby! At the moment I only work part time (9am~1pm Tue-Fri) and have a lot of free time on my hands! Might be subject to change in the future depending on my employment. Because I live in a second floor apartment I unfortunately don't have a fenced in yard but there is an empty wide open field right next to my apartments to which I usually take my dog nephew when he is over and he loves it. Depending on the dog they can be leashed or unleashed, I am fine with either. I do have two cats of my own so boarding is preferred for smaller cat friendly dogs but I have no issue dropping in to check on fur babies in their own homes.

About: Nothing is more important than your furbaby’s safety and happiness! For dogs, I understand leash control, situational awareness, and the value of structured walks. I’m happy to follow your handling instructions so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I have completed clicker training along with foundation and advanced canine fitness courses. For cats, I know they need gentle, calm, and stress-free care. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and am familiar with cat behavior and body language. I provide reliable drop-in visits that prioritize your cat’s comfort and individual needs. I have a lot of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I read their body language well and know how to help them feel relaxed and at ease in new situations. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available on weekends from 8am–4pm, and weekdays work too with at least one day’s notice. Tell me what times you’re looking for, and I’ll accommodate as much as possible. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting services. Dogs get structured walks with time to sniff and light play. Cats receive interactive play, enrichment, and calm attention based on what they enjoy. I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s comfort level. Feeding is included as part of your pet’s regular routine, and my focus is on keeping pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free.

“Wow. Jade went above and beyond for my cat. I told Jade before she watched my cat, Sister, that I was nervous because she’s such an anxious cat and I didn’t want things to be too difficult. Fret not. I come home to see my cat out in the living room- basking in the sun, not a care in the world. She wasn’t hiding like she usually does when new people are around, no, she was purring and relaxed. When I went to pet Sister, I made a crazy discovery. Her nails? Trimmed. Her hair? Washed. Not only that, I had told Jade not to worry about the litter box since I wouldn’t be gone for long. And what did Jade do? She deep cleaned it. Deep cleaned my cat’s litter box just because. I mean come on. Talk about a cat sitter! I could not recommend this girl more. She’s thoughtful, she’s kind, she’s an animal whisperer. Just when you think things couldn’t be better, Jade says just wait. 5 stars and a happy cat waiting for Jade’s return.”

Ruby did an amazing job! I have an elderly cat that takes meds 2x a day and frequently has accidents, and a boy cat that’s crazy for attention and Ruby tended to them both amazingly. She’s so responsible, I didn’t have to worry about them one bit. Got home and cats were happy and house was clean. I can tell she took great care of them. Thank you Ruby!

50000/5 stars for Aurora! She was so kind and helpful and took great care of our kitties! She kept up updated on the feedings and sent us photos which was the best. She really cares about taking care of your pets and I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Aurora!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
