“My cats are very shy when meeting new people and Katelyn was wonderful in understanding and making sure they got the care they needed regardless. She made sure that they were eating and drinking and sent pics and updates to a worried cat mom! Thanks Katelyn :)”

About: To put it simply, caring for animals is my life's passion; I would love to take care of your pet like they're my own. I am a highly experienced career pet care professional, currently working at Kitty Co Cat Rescue, with prior experience working at Fido and Friends. I provide the highest level of compassionate care, with a deep understanding of animal behavior and the importance of providing patience and love while caring for animals. I have hands-on experience supporting daily pet care, kennel sanitation, and medication routines. I am trained in administering oral medications, transdermal medications (for cats only), fluids, temperature checks, vaccines, oxygen support, and breathing treatments. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility and availability for pet care. I am available for overnight pet sitting primarily on weekends. I am highly responsible and detail-oriented when it comes to pet and home care. My professional training in veterinary support allows me to provide the highest level of safety for your animal
“I'm very grateful to Dana for her kindness and patience with my two cats. She goes above and beyond to make sure that my home is in good condition, as well as taking great care of Fabio and Windi. My finicky cats highly recommend Dana!”

I love animals and would love to get to know you and your pet! I work remote, and can usually sneak out for a bit during the day. As long as there is some flexibility with drop in visits, i should be able to make up to 3 visits a day work for both cats or dogs (or other pets!). I have a fenced yard and 2 indoor cats, as well as my mom’s dog who i take care of regularly. I am an animal lover and care for animals deeply. I promise to treat your pets with care kindness and respect.
“Jen is our favorite cat sitter! We trust her to always take care of our 3 fur babies. She is so communicative and through with her care. We highly reccomended her to others! ❤️”
About: I have 3 pets of my own that I love so so much (2 cats and a dog). I have always cared for my neighbors pets as they have relied on me for the past few years every now and then. I have experience with both cats and dogs and have been pet sitting locally for 3 or 4 years now. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, and bathing pets. Hopefully you can rely on me to look after your pets this summer! I am currently in college at Duquesne University and am looking for some extra work this summer. I am looking to start work at a daycare part time but not until later so I thought this opportunity would be perfect. I will have plenty of free time until then to look after your pets! I have 2 cats and a dog who are my baby’s. I do not do boarding in my own home due to a temperament issue of our younger cat, but gladly will visit your fur baby’s and care for them that way! I am very trustworthy and can communicate well if there are any issues. I know some animals have dietary restrictions and such and will make sure to follow any instructions of care necessary.
“Eronda was such a caring and loving person whit my maxis, I’m sure they loved to spend this time whit her. She send me updates and pictures everyday after a walk and I can say they were calm, pampered and very happy. Thank you so much Eronda, there’s no better feeling than to know your furry babies are safe and having some love ❤️.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats most my life and have cared for many friend’s and neighbor’s pets. I love dogs, cats, and even bunnies and will care for yours like they were my own. I have plenty of experience teaching my dogs tricks and good behavior along with giving them medicine and treatment when needed. I currently work part time and am a part time online grad student working on my masters degree from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On my days home I’d love a break to care for your pet or enjoy a nice walk together! I currently have no pets of my own and can come by to care for your pet whenever you may need. I work well with all pets big, small, young, and old as long as they are non-aggressive.
“Theresa was wonderful and attentive and communicative. It made me feel at ease to know that my cats were in good hands. She clearly loves animals and is knowledgeable about pet care. Highly recommend!”
“Mamie was attentive, professional, and made us feel comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She sent updates and photos promptly and was detailed in her report cards. We also have two large breeds, and she handled them with ease. I can’t recommend her enough! Our dogs loved her😊”
“Absolutely phenomenal as a sitter! Took wonderful care of our two very different cats and gave great updates and photos of them at each visit. The pets loved her. Will absolutely use Brianna again on our next trip!”
About: I don’t have much experience with dogs if I’m being honest. The only experience I had with a dog was with a baby pitbull and that was for about a year. That being said, despite my lack of experience I am willing to learn. My love for animals in general is why I am open to learning. I will still provide the same love, care and affection for a dog as I would a cat. My daily and weekly routine is very open for pet care. I am currently on maternity leave so I have lots of availability throughout my days. I treat them like their family and not strangers or “just for the money type of thing”. If the client has special requests as far as how they would want their pet taken care of, I would follow those requests and update the clients along the way.
“Brianna was so patient and understanding of last minute scheduling hiccups and really gave me peace of mind! My pups were comfortable with her immediately. Great communication and would absolutely trust her to watch them again!”
About: I have two dogs of my own who I love, I dogsit for many families in the neighborhood I live in, and some family members too. I also worked at a doggy daycare over the summer which also included staying the night to watch dogs! I am currently a substitute teacher working full time while doing grad school ! I also work at a doggy daycare a few days a week after school. My schedule is a little busy, but summer is right around the corner! I am available to come to your house to watch the dogs if needed! I am very accommodating so whatever you need me to do I'm on it. I also enjoy walking them to get them some exercise !

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Grove
Jake is an outstanding pet sitter who consistently goes above and beyond. During his drop-in visits for my cats, he showed genuine care and concern when he couldn’t locate my shy kitty, patiently trying several approaches to make sure everything was okay. He was always courteous, professional, and highly communicative, providing thoughtful updates during each visit. I had complete peace of mind knowing my cats were in such capable hands. I highly recommend Jake and will continue to book him! — A Very Pleased Repeat Customer
Alaska was amazing and made my first experience on Rover seamless! She was so communicative, from picking up keys beforehand to dealing with my less-than-sociable cat, I couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after my baby while I was out of town. I highly recommend booking her!
We used Jessica for a second time! She is amazing with our cats. We love getting detailed summaries of her visits and the many pictures she sends! We feel so comfortable with her caring for our babies. You can tell she is passionate about animals and caring for them. It’s easy to tell through pictures they love her! Thank you Jessica!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,260 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Forest Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forest Grove. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
