“Laura was great. My dogs took to immediately. She communicated well and was so sweet to be willing to take us on with short notice. I would recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter”
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life, with dogsitting consistently since I was in middle school. I have taken care of puppies up to senior dogs. I also have administered medicine and helped keep pets on training programs. I work part time and only in morning and early afternoons, so I am able to spend lots of quality time with your pets! I also do not work on weekends, which can bring a lot more joy to your pets! I do not care for pets in my house but I am able to clean up the mess that can be made from both the pets and I in your home. I will be neat and respectful to your home, while also making sure the pet enjoys their time as well!
“Natalie is such an amazing sitter! We had to find a new sitter and she is wonderful. She cleaned up some messes one of our older cats made, ensured that their waters were clean, and loved on my cats. Keeping her info for the future!!”
“Stephanie is the absolute best!! I highly recommend her! My two kitties were well taken care of and instructions followed to the letter! I got a report and wonderful pictures everyday, which really helped being away from them! She spent time loving on them and playing with them, besides the essentials. Things were great upon our return !”
About: What sets me apart from others is that I will spend quality time getting to know the pet and his/her individual needs. Building a trusting relationship with the animal is of the upmost importance. My weekly schedule will allow for me to be available to work providing pet care services 20-30 hours a week. Along with being reliable I am also willing to be flexible. Again, I get to know the animal and his/her needs while honoring the instructions and guidance from the owner. Establishing a solid, trusting relationship with the pet and its owner allows for a positive experience for all involved.
About: I’m a teacher who loves to take care of pets in his spare time. I can walk your dog, play with your dog or cat, take care of your cats needs and can house sit as needed. I am free on Thursdays and Fridays as far as week days go. I also can work on the weekend too. I just need notice so that I can accommodate. I am very good at respecting the space of the owners home and can make sure that things are in good order both during and after pet sitting.
About: My house is a zoo. I currently have two dogs and three cats. I'm used to feeding everyone, walking them, cleaning up after them, and sharing all the love! One of my dogs is 85 pounds, and the other is 15, so I'm used to the pulling and excitement! You can trust me to provide the best care to your fur babies! I currently have a varying schedule where I either work a typical 9-5 or a 12-10. I'm available whenever needed and usually have weekdays off and some weekends. I can provide walks, baths, pets, brushes, feedings, treats, snuggles, and whatever else your fur baby needs! You let me know what you need from me and I'm happy to do it!
“Andrea was great at initiating our first meet-up as well as continuously communicating throughout her drop in visits. Our pet was well cared for and not nearly as anxious as she usually is when we are away.”
“Thank you so much for dropping in to check on our two kitties. We really really appreciate that you were able to visit around Mollee's bedtime and to see her in the photos all relaxed in her usual places. Della jumped down from the cat tree in the office when we got home, she was napping up top. Hopefully, as she gets to know you, she will come out and play with you!”
About: I have been dog-sitting consistently since 2016, and it's something I truly love! My budget and schedule doesn't allow me to have a dog right now, but I love getting to care for others when they need someone reliable and trustworthy to help them out! I work part time and have a pretty flexible job, so can work with your schedule and needs. Reach out to me and we'll see if we can work it out! I am very thorough, detail-oriented, and responsible. I always aim to care for your pets the way I would care for my own, so rest assured, they will be in good hands!
About: ⚠️I ask all clients to please give their pets flea and heartworm meds 24hrs before their stay! I will not accept them if they are not up to date! ⚠️All dogs must be bathed before dropping them off! If you don’t have time to do so, let me know and I’d be happy to do it for you at a small cost! 😁 I grew up with dogs and adored it! We have our own family dog as well. I have watched, walked and trained small and big dogs for family and friends since I was a kid. I love helping other family’s in any way I can! I really enjoy dog sitting on Rover, not only has been a good remote job for me to support my family but I have developed good relationships with my clients and their pups! I enjoy taking the dogs out for puppuccinos, visiting sniff spots and going on walks! The best part is when the pups are excited to return for another stay! I’m currently a stay at home mom so I am with the pups most of the time. I some times leave to run errands or pick up my kids from school but I make sure to give your dog love and attention while I’m at home! Our back yard is small but fenced off. Our family dog loves to play and run! Besides feedings, we like to avoid conflict between the dogs by putting the food away when other dogs come over. Over all, we see fur babies as part of the family, so we respect their boundaries and needs(as well as the owners directions and requests)and we are teaching our kids to do the same!
About: I provide reliable, attentive care for pets of all ages, including puppies and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, and adjusting care based on each pet’s needs and energy level. Being home full-time allows me to give pets consistent supervision, patience, and a calm environment. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated and at ease. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will have consistent care and campaionship.

“I really appreciate Brody and all of his professionalism. He took great care of Will. Following my instructions and providing me great updates. I recommend using Brody and hope to book with him again in the future.”
About: I’m new to public pet sitting but have experience with friends and family. I want to make pet parents feel comfortable while their fur kids are being taken care of. I work full time however I can be flexible with my time during the week and my weekends are open. If I’m able to get a month notice I can be more flexible with week day schedules. I really enjoy senior pets so if you want me to read to them or watch shows or cuddle with them I am your sitter . I have a fenced yard and a doggie door with a back yard camera. I also allow them to roam my house and can provide them a bed to sleep in or cuddle with them whichever fits their needs. I’m open to keeping the pets at their homes if that’s also more comfortable for the pet and family . I understand that some pets have unique needs and that there can be separation anxiety so please feel free to know your pets needs .

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!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Forest Grove stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
