“Abigail was great! She cleaned up after our cats constantly when they had accidents and never complained. She showed up on time each day, checked in constantly and gave us constant updates. Will definitely rebook.”
“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!”
“Isaac is awesome! We have 3 dogs, 2 very large Cane Corsos and a pitbull mix. Our male Corso is the challenge, his trust has to be earned before he relaxes. He is actually our most loving dog, but not to strangers. He’s a guard dog no question. Issac is working with him, earning his trust and is not intimidated by him. ( thank goodness 🙏). We have FINALLY found someone! I highly recommend Isaac.”
“Laura is great about communication and took good care of my girls. She followed up during and after her drop ins visits. Both girls gave 2-paws-up review, even the nervous one!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I can care for cats and dogs. I personally have a 110 lb dog, so giant dogs don’t bother me. I’ve spent two weeks house sitting for family friends before to care for there couple labs. I’m currently in college part time with online classes, I have tons of flexibility with my time. I can wake up early to walk your pets, since how hot it has been lately. I have a 110 lb Pitt-bull mastiff mix that I walk daily, and care since she is my fur baby. I understand how people will react to big dogs on walks and I have the ability to control a big dog is startled or provoked.
“Adara is very professional, friendly, and reassuring — a fabulous set of qualities for just what we needed: a reliable cat-friend to check up on two different kitties. 1000% will book again!”
“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!!”
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!
“Theresa was a wonderful pet sitter to my livestock guardian dog and two parrots. She was communicative, asked questions as needed, and provided a calm experience for my pets while we were away for a week. I highly recommend her services, and I definitely plan to use her again for my future pet sitting needs.”
“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”
“Kaitlyn is a great cat-sitter. I returned to a quite happy cat. She followed all provided instructions and promptly replied during the entire duration of the cat sitting. Even though my cat is pretty shy around new people, Kaitlyn quickly earned his trust. Kaitlyn provided many pictures and prompt updates for each day's visit and was thoughtful enough to double-check that I was returning as expected. I unequivocally recommend her as a cat-sitter and would book again.”
About: I’ve had my own animals and have helped friends and family by pet sitting or even going to just walk them or feed them. I have animals in my household and i love having them around me when i’m at home. I’m currently self employed, my schedule is open and i am available anytime if i am needed. I do grocery deliveries and lyft so my schedule depends on me. I have 3 cats they are all inside cats. They are very chill and do as they please. Whenever i’m home they are usually relaxing with me. If needed, i am available for pet sitting and whatever instructions are left is what i will go by.
About: I’ve taken care of countless pets and treated them as my own over the years. It’s truly what I’m most passionate about. My main goal is to make the pets and owners feel as safe and comfortable as possible and to have a blast doing it! I have an open schedule and can do same day bookings. Early mornings aren’t my strong suit but I’m willing to do what works best for you and your pet. Pets feel most comfortable at home or in their own neighborhood with familiar surroundings. I pay close attention to the things that put them at ease when you’re away and try to get to know every individual animal’s needs.
About: I have been a pet sitter for cats and dogs -- My friends tend to rely on me to take care of their furry friends while they are away! I have more experience in working with medium and smaller dogs/ cats. If you will hire me to be a sitter, I will not stay at your house, but I will make sure your furry friend is doing great! I am currently a full-time worker at a physical therapy clinic, but my evenings are free to give your pup a good walk so they can sleep through the night! If they are not looking for a long walk, I am great company and enjoy caring for your furry friend. I have guinea pigs at home, and although I am busy during the day, I find time to take care of them and make sure their enclosure is clean and livable. -- When caring for my friends' furry pets, I make sure that they are receiving what they need when I am there, leaving them as comfortable as possible, and updating my clients on what I did and how their furry friend is doing. Communication is key to my work.

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!

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forest Grove. On Rover:
- 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.
