“Katelyn was a wonderful sitter for our two cats and rabbit! She provided meaningful updates and made being away from our crew a little easier. 10/10 - no notes! 😊”
“Amanda did an amazing job keeping us updated about our cats while we were on vacation. We didn’t have to worry about them at all and we knew they were in good hands.”
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. Now, I’m lucky enough to have one of each of my own! I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, providing them with plenty of love, care, and attention while making sure both you and your pets have the best experience possible. I currently work from home in the Robinson Township area, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day. I’d love to help with morning, lunchtime, or evening visits and make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. I’m happy to help with whatever your pets need, whether that means taking your dog for a walk, playing a game of fetch, giving plenty of belly rubs and cuddles, or keeping your cat’s litter box clean and fresh. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have to help your pets feel comfortable and cared for. Every pet is different, and I’ll make sure to give them the attention, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away.
“Reagan was great! She did drop-in visits for our cats while we were on vacation and handled everything perfectly. She followed all of our instructions and sent quick replies to our messages. Our cats loved her. We would definitely book her again!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. (my soul dog’s ashes are in my paw tattoo 🐾🩷) I grew up with Rottweilers and currently have two of my own, Gino & Haus, they're my whole world! I also have a handful of kitties🥰 My passion for animal care goes back as far as I can remember. From baby videos of me crawling on my dog and giving him a big hug & kiss, to completing a veterinary training class in 10th grade, where I learned the basics of animal health and handling! There even was one time I rescued two dogs on the side of the highway who had dug out of their backyard!! I now have about 3.5 years of hands-on experience working with animals, including two years at doggy daycares, where I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they're my own and I always try my best to give them a safe, loving, reliable person they can trust just as much as they trust you, no matter how long it takes them to warm up to me. Working with animals is more than just a job to me—it's what I love, and I plan to make it my lifelong career. If your pet ends up having as much fun as I do while watching them, please describe their experience in a review! it would mean the world to me and help me spread my word and my love for animals 🫶 I work at a doggy daycare with a flexible schedule, so my availability varies from week to week. I am almost always able to stay overnight for house sitting, and depending on my work schedule, I can spend all day, all morning, or all afternoon and evening with your baby. I always try to spend as much time as I can with your baby. (leaving work is as hard as you can imagine) My most common shift is 1:00 PM–7:00 PM, though I can also work morning, afternoon, and split shifts, though the weekday morning shifts are extremely rare. My weekday shifts are never longer than 6.5 hours, and the only time I may be away for up to 10 hours is on the occasional Saturday when I'm scheduled for a longer shift. On Sundays, I usually work split shifts, which means I'm able to come home and spend about 2½ hours with your pet between work periods. If it's a good fit for your baby and you're comfortable with it (and comfortable paying for it😅), I'd also be happy to talk about bringing them with me to my work so they can enjoy extra socialization, enrichment, and attention, while never leaving my side! I'm committed to keeping your babies routine as normal as possible and will always communicate my schedule ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect!! Your babies safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. I love to take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and other special needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, as if you haven’t even left! I am experienced in administering medications, following food schedules, and providing extremely gentle and personal care. Walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I'll always make sure your baby gets plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection (and making sure they know it!!) while I keep their routine as normal and consistent as I possibly can! I treat every pet as if they were my own, and pay close attention to their behavior so I can quickly notice and respond accordingly with any changes or concerns. You will also always get regular updates and photos about how they were and their day!
“I could tell right away that Dana was dependable, reliable and can be counted on. As someone who worries a lot about leaving my two cats, that provided me the peace of mind that I needed to enjoy my vacation week. I was so happy to find that she also truly is kind, caring, and loves animals, and that my shy cats warmed up to her immediately! I would absolutely recommend Dana.”
“We were very happy having Mamie (Mary) care for our two cats! She is a great communicator, particularly when it comes to letting you know how it's going with your pets. We have a cat who is recovering from an injury and we could tell from meeting Mamie - and later from her updates - that he was in good, attentive hands! She also had to play hide-and-seek a bit to keep up with our more timid cat, but she caught onto his patterns. We're glad we were able to book her and would highly recommend!”
“There are so many wonderful things to say about Mollie! She checked-in on my new puppy (a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Rosie) for 2 weeks and was amazing. Mollie was very easy to work with and took wonderful care of Rosie. Mollie cleaned up messes, played with Rosie, and took her for walks. She also provided me with numerous pictures of Rosie during their play time. I highly recommend Mollie to take care of any pet needs and would definitely work with her in the future!”
About: My name is Miranda, and I am an animal lover with previous pet sitting experience looking to help take care of your cute critter in your absence! I have extensive experience with cat ownership and pet sitting, including senior and medically complex felines. I also have some experience with pet sitting for dogs and other small pets, like birds and fish. If you are in the Pittsburgh area and are looking for someone kind, trustworthy, dedicated, and caring to look after your animal, I am here to help! :) I have very free availability at the moment, as I run my own business for work and make my own hours! Pet care is actually the crux of my personal daily routine. My own cute critter, my cat Flower, keeps me quite occupied at home, whether it's feeding her on schedule, giving her lots of playtime, or just snuggling up for some brushing. Rest assured, I'll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I would love to have an introduction meeting with you, virtual or in-person, so we can discuss your pet's needs, preferences, and schedule! Every pet is different, and it is very important that I understand your cute critter's individual personality so I can give them the quality care they deserve. During the introductory meeting, I will be sure to ask specifics about diet and medication, as well, so that no changes are made to their regular routine. I work hard to be timely and courteous by keeping pet owners updated about their cute critters while away, and will always make sure to include some pictures for you to enjoy! I make sure that I am accessible around the clock in case any questions or concerns arise while you're away.
“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!”
“Brianna was so so great! Even with how late I made my booking, she was accommodating and sweet, and while I was away, she went above and beyond. I really appreciated all the effort she put into taking care of my cats, and even my shy guy seemed to warm up to her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Jen B. is the purrfect pet sitter. We were on an 8-day cruise and didn’t worry about our three kitties at all knowing Jen was taking care of them. She gave our sassy senior, Kate, her thyroid meds which was a huge relief. She was very patient with our other two scaredy cats. We highly recommend Jen. She’s pawesome!”
“Rylee did a great job with Dobby during her drop-in visit! He was happy, well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates. Would definitely have her watch him again!”
“I have had such a great experience with Hannah taking care of my dog! Being a new dog owner, Hannah has eased my mind when I was away by keeping my dog happy, comfortable, playing with him, and giving him all the cuddles! She is very easy to communicate and schedule with and always keeps me updated about her visits with my pup. I’m glad that when I can’t be with my dog, Hannah is there to keep him company!”
About: I have taken care of neighbors’, family’s, and friend’s dogs plenty of times before, from small to big dogs. I am very attentive to detail, so I will be able to care for your dog’s individual needs. Most recently, I have cared for a miniature schnauzer puppy, a black lab puppy, and two mid-aged mixed breed dogs. I have additional experience with doodles, king cavalier spaniels, dauschunds, pitbulls, and pugs. I am currently studying to take my physical therapy board examination so I will my schedule is flexible. I am not working at the moment, but hope to get a full-time job after taking my examination at the end of July. A part-time job may be added in the near future. I am willing to feed them, walk them, play with them, let them out to the bathroom, and clean up after them. Whatever they need, I will willingly provide for them. I can easily crate your dog if needed and spent my last semester away at college lifting a lot at the gym, so there need be no worries of the dog walking itself. I enjoy being outdoors when the weather is nice, so if that’s something your pet also enjoys, I am glad to spend time outdoors with them. If they are more the indoor, cuddly type, I am to accompany them in that as well.
“Riley was amazing! Our dog is old, has movement issues, and needs medication. She was so great with him! She gave wonderful updates, consistently, about our dog and cat. She sent pictures daily and was super responsive! She was absolutely great to work with, easy to communicate with, and made our vacation so relaxing because we knew our pets were taken care of so well, while we were away! Highly recommend her!”
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!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Grove
Katelyn was always on time and went above and beyond what was needed by sitting and talking to our outdoor cats. We always got updated photos and she was on top of things! She was very kind and compassionate and easy to talk to. It was a pleasure getting to know her and we will definitely be booking her for any future travel
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 September 2026, there are 1,276 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:
- 88% 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.
