“Laurie signed up last minute to check in on our dogs. She was able to come in and care for them without having met them beforehand. She sent photos of their lovely walk and when we came home the dogs were happy and healthy. Thank you Laurie!”
“Chelsea was amazing and helped me out at the last minute when I really needed someone. She was incredibly responsive, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated throughout the visit and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
“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!”
“Brenda took great care of my cat while I was away! She gave my cat her daily medication and sent a lot of videos and pictures of her which helped my peace of mind while I was on my trip. Brenda was also very responsive to any questions and requests I had.”
“Alivia was great and took wonderful care of our Nomar! We were gone for 8 days and she stayed at our house the whole time… and sent updates on him! We really appreciated her!! 🤍”
About: **My Dog Care Experience 🐶🐾** Dogs have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember! My love for dogs began in second grade when I got my first dog, and that love has continued to grow ever since. I’m now the proud pet parent of my own dog of 7 years, who is very loved, spoiled, and pampered! I know firsthand that dogs are family, and they deserve to be treated with the same love, patience, and attention we give our own. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for and watching multiple dogs at a time. I’m comfortable providing attentive, reliable, and timely care while making sure each dog receives the attention they need. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or sticking to a specific routine, I understand how important consistency and individualized care are for keeping dogs happy and comfortable. I know that leaving your furry family member with someone else requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing with their favorite toys, getting endless belly rubs, or simply relaxing with some company, I’m happy to make their time with me as enjoyable as possible! Your dog will be treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and care! ❤️🐕 **Pet Care That Fits My Schedule 🐾** I currently have a busy weekday schedule, but I’m happy to dedicate my available time to caring for your furry family members! I’m available on weekends, Tuesdays after 6:00 PM, and Fridays after 5:00 PM. I strive to be reliable, punctual, and attentive to your pet’s needs, and I’m happy to coordinate in advance to find a time that works best for both of us. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care while ensuring your pet’s routine and comfort remain a priority! I provide attentive, loving, and dependable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. In my clients’ homes, I follow their instructions closely to maintain consistency with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and any other agreed-upon care needs. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment while their owners are away. As a pet parent myself, I understand that pets are family! I have my own dog of seven years who is very loved and pampered, and I treat every pet in my care with that same level of attention and affection. I prioritize safety, patience, and communication with pet parents, including updates and photos so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands. My goal is to make sure every pet receives reliable, individualized care and plenty of love while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine.
“We had such a great experience with Destiny watching our cats! She was incredibly communicative, reliable, and sent us regular updates while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats and made sure they were well taken care of. We came home to happy, well-loved kitties! We would absolutely recommend Destiny and will definitely use her again in the future! ❤️”
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals my entire life. Growing up, my family always had six or more dogs at a time, ranging from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures and administering medication, as well as handling a dog-reactive dog, so I’m very attentive to my surroundings and each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities and will treat your pets like my own. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays in your home and can work around your pet’s normal routine. I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care. I also have experience with reactive dogs and am very mindful of safety and surroundings during walks.
“Good communication, kind, considerate. She went above and beyond to make sure my "non-traditional" pets also had water in addition to my cat. She was respectful of my house, and I will be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Jenna took great care of my cat! She was punctual, communicative, responsible, and I felt safe leaving my cat in her care. I came back home to a happy and healthy cat. Thanks Jenna! ☺️”
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.
About: Thank you for considering me! I’m new to Rover, but for me, animals have always been family. Growing up, I was responsible for taking care of my family’s two dogs. I would walk, feed, and play with them on a consistent schedule. Nowadays, I have four cats with my fiancée and I’m loving every minute of being a pet parent! My top priorities as your pet sitter are safety, communication, and comfort. I want you to feel at ease knowing that your animals are in good hands, just as I want your pets to be comfortable with me checking in on them. I will always respect any boundaries, especially with shy/reserved animals! I have a full time job in Bellevue, where I work 8am-4pm Monday thru Friday. I am able to drop in before and after my shifts, as well as anytime on weekends! Dog walks are better suited for after my work shifts. I’d only be available for House sitting typically from Friday evenings to Sunday evenings/Monday mornings, although don’t hesitate to reach out as it’s possible we could get something coordinated. Communication is key! Safety is huge for me. Having multiple pets that are escape artists has taught me to be very vigilant when opening our front door. Your pet’s safety is my top priority!
About: I'll be just as excited to see them everytime as they are to see me. I love taking the time to get to know their individual personalities and quirks. Their tails wags bring smiles to my face. I've always had at least one dog of all sizes in my house growing up from little schnauaser and jack russell to a big coon hound. I know that some dogs can be a little more challenging than others but that doesn't deter me from trying to be their friend. I have the patience and intuition to read a dogs body language and am willing to give them their time and space to warm up to me. Because I am self employed and work from home, I am in charge of my schedule. I have flexibility and will try my best to be accommodating. When I am with your pet, they are my number one priority. They will receive the attention they want with their safety in mind above all else.
About: I’ve lived with cats my entire life and have cared for nine cats over the years, so understanding cats of all personalities comes very naturally to me. I genuinely enjoy caring for cats across the full range of temperaments—from social and playful to quiet and independent—and I approach every visit with calm attentiveness and respect for each cat’s individual style. I’m also very familiar with dogs and their care, having helped care for dogs since childhood. I’m comfortable with small, well-mannered adult dogs and focus on keeping visits safe, predictable, and low-stress. In addition to cats and dogs, I have experience caring for small animals, including a fire-bellied lizard, fish, and parakeets. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and understand the importance of consistency and gentle handling for animals with specialized routines. During visits, I always provide updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re being well cared for. My goal is to offer reliable, thoughtful care that helps pets feel secure and comfortable in their own homes while their people are away. Pet care fits into my routine in a structured and predictable way. On weekdays, I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks after work between 5:45–7:00 PM. On weekends, I’m available Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM, which allows for more flexibility. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking, and I’m happy to do walks as long as weather conditions are safe. I do not offer overnight care. My schedule is consistent, and I’m careful to only accept bookings I can reliably and comfortably accommodate. All care takes place in the client’s home—I do not offer boarding, daycare, or in-home care at my residence. I follow written care instructions exactly and prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. For transparency, I occasionally bring my toddler with me on drop-in visits; for safety, pets and child are always kept separate, with no direct interaction. I do not introduce client pets to other people or animals. During each visit, I complete basic safety checks such as ensuring doors are secure, food and water needs are met, litter boxes or potty routines are handled, and the overall environment feels calm and safe. I communicate promptly if anything seems out of the ordinary and always provide updates so pet parents can feel confident their pets are well cared for.
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my entire life, along with horses, reptiles, and birds. I spent several years working for a pet care business, worked in customer care for a holistic pet store, have house-sat through Rover, and have boarded animals for friends. I recently lived with 3 German Shepherds, a Husky, and a two cats. I can handle animals of all energy levels. I am always taking care of animals! I have a dog of my own and often look after my friends’ and family’s pets. I have a flexible schedule so I always try to be there when people need me. Always cautious, ready to respect what an animal expects and needs, and more than happy to give them all the love and play, play, play
About: I’m not just someone who “likes dogs”. I grew up with a Golden Retriever. From puppy energy to senior comfort, I’ve been around it all. I’ve also cared for larger, strong-willed breeds like a Rhodesian Ridgebacks and cane corsos…so I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and personalities. Whether your dog needs structure, patience, or just someone who can match their energy, I adapt to what they need. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I pay attention to routines, behavior changes, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have been a caretaker and dog sitter for a few years. Needless to say, taking care of people’s loved-ones comes second nature to me. My night shift schedule at the VA allows me to be available all day to give your pet the attentive care that he/she needs including keeping them company, letting them out for potty breaks, walks,feeds,etc. With house-sitting, I will leave your home the way you left it. I will ensure that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well-fed. I will observe your pets closely. If I notice anything “off” about your pets, you will be notified immediately so that appropriate action is taken if needed.
“Corinne is truely an exceptional Pet Sitter. She was our best Christmas present, as we booked her last minute (after a scheduled visit was cancelled). Our 20 yr. old kitty, normally pretty shy with strangers, fell in love with her on 1st meeting and let Corinne hold & pet her on every visit. She was the best communicator, sending lots of pictures and short messages. We are so happy and thankful to have found Corinne and will definitely book her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Yanny and I am a reliable and attentive pet caregiver with strong observation and communication skills (a psychology degree helps with that!). Experienced following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and recognizing behavioral cues in our furry friends. I love walking animals and helping them maintain their health when owners are gone. My biggest priority is to make the animals feel safe and loved while owners are away! Im currently working a full time job at a school near the Pittsburgh area, so I afternoons, nights, and weekends to connect with animals and owners. I can easily drive to a clients house, and I’m very reliable and flexible when it comes to scheduling! If needed, I can always drive the pets to parks and open spaces to have a fun time as well. (My work will depend on the wants and needs of the clients!)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forest Grove
Katelyn took the time to come meet my fur babies ahead of time to make sure they took to her (spoiler: they did!). Even the shy one made peace with her. She kept me up-to-date with photos and comments all along, and spent some time playing with them every day. This was my first time using Rover, and Katelyn made an excellent first impression!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 417 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 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.

- 86% 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 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.
