“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.”
“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”
“Thank you Andrea! I 100% felt Ringo was in good hands, appreciated the updates and communication and I hope I can asked you again to take care of him in the future. 🙂”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Natalie did great, and the dogs loved her. She took great care of my dogs and gave me the peace of mind that they would be well taken care of. I would definitely book again.”
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.
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!
“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.”
“Good communication. I could tell from our first meet and greet that Chanay was going to be a great person to watch my boy. There was a few growing pains with the app but those were handled admirably. She was able to do what I asked of her and even went the extra step ti confirm something confusing. Looking forward to continue working with her. Respected my space and followed directions well even in the absence of a few minor details.”
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: Hey there! I’ve been around and caring for animals for most of my life and have hands-on experience with dogs and cats . I currently work in veterinary medicine, so I’m comfortable caring for animals with different needs, recognizing changes in behavior, and making sure pets are safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, large and strong dogs. I’m comfortable handling animals that need extra patience, space, and understanding. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away! I own and operate my own farrier business, so I may occasionally be away for a couple of hours during the day while I’m working with horses. I’ll always discuss this with you beforehand to make sure your pet is comfortable being left alone for a few hours. If they aren’t, no worries at all! I can also schedule my farrier work around whatever your pet may need. Outside of work, I’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, attention, and care. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have years of hands-on experience with animals and am comfortable with dogs, cats, horses, and small animals, including nervous or reactive pets. I’ll follow your instructions and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll always communicate with you if anything comes up and make sure your pet gets the same care and attention they’re used to.
“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 always been an animal lover and genuinely enjoy having pets around. I know how much our pets mean to us and how hard it can be to leave them when we’re away, so I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. I’m also comfortable giving extra attention to pets who are shy, anxious, or need a little time to warm up. My goal is simple: to care for your pet the way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, love, and lots of attention. 🐾❤️ I’m currently in midwifery school and have found that my schedule doesn’t allow for full nursing shifts anymore! I love walking and I love animals so I having the opportunity to offer an 30-60 minutes of love to someone’s dog is so special for me! I currently offer pet care exclusively in your home, because I think pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own space and routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, meals, and cuddles while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re gone.

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!

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 .

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.
