About: PLEASE READ: I currently work in McMinnville so while I am able to pet sit, unless you live within 15 minutes of McMinnville, I will be unable to let animals out in the middle of the day. I've been caring for friends and family's pets for 6 years. I like keeping our furry friends on their schedule and company while loved ones are away. I'm comfortable giving medication and taking care of senior pets. I'm detail oriented and am happy to give status updated as needed. I'd love the chance to care for your pets like they were one of mine. I currently work full time so while I am able to pet sit and do walks, it would need to be close enough to do on my hour lunch break., Currently I prefer to care for pets at their own home, as I feel that being in the same environment helps being with a new person
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs, I have grown up with dogs, and have taken care of my friends, family, and neighbors dogs. I’m currently a masters student at Portland State University, but I only have class on Mondays so my schedule is very open. Other than school, I work from home for a start-up called flowmind, where I have a very flexible schedule. I am easily adaptable, so whatever your dogs routine is I will be happy to follow any instructions given. I will make sure your fur baby is comfortable and happy throughout the entire stay.
“Michelle did a spectacular job caring for our sweet kitty. Communication was excellent, we received lovely updates every day and we arrived home to a very happy cat. We had such great peace of mind through our trip knowing our girl was being so well cared for at home. Thank you, Michelle!!”
About: I am dedicated to the well-being of your pet. I pay attention to detail and will follow your pet's plan to ensure their safety while in my care. I have a full-time job and am typically unavailable between 7am-4pm during the week. I am available most weekends to walk or care for your fur babies. Starting mid-June, I will have more availability during the day. I care for pets by following the plan provided by the owner. I provide time for play, exercise, and rest. When in my care, your pet is my top priority!
“Eliza did an amazing job watching our pups! She kept us updated and informed regularly throughout the weekend, did a great job keeping our pups loved and cared for, and was flexible and helpful in accommodating our plans. Definitely would recommend!”
About: I’m new to public pet sitting but have experience with friends and family. I want to make pet parents feel comfortable while their fur kids are being taken care of. I work full time however I can be flexible with my time during the week and my weekends are open. If I’m able to get a month notice I can be more flexible with week day schedules. I really enjoy senior pets so if you want me to read to them or watch shows or cuddle with them I am your sitter . I have a fenced yard and a doggie door with a back yard camera. I also allow them to roam my house and can provide them a bed to sleep in or cuddle with them whichever fits their needs. I’m open to keeping the pets at their homes if that’s also more comfortable for the pet and family . I understand that some pets have unique needs and that there can be separation anxiety so please feel free to know your pets needs .
About: Being raised on a small farm, there have always been cats & dogs around to share in the ups & downs of life. I love leaning into each individual's personality and working with positive reenforcement to catch the animals doing good behavior! I have experience training/working with dogs of all ages. Sometimes our furry friends need extra care. I am experienced in oral medicine administration, wound care, ear & eye treatments (if need be)! I am available for pet care on a daily basis. I care for my cats & dog daily. If ever I need backup support, I have a network of folks willing to lend a hand. When pet sitting, I follow the instructions given by the owner regarding when to feed, how much food, how often they need to go outside. Beyond that, I typically tidy up the space every evening, sweeping/vacuuming, refreshing waters, etc. I try to develop a routine so that the animals know what to expect and can relax into a sense of order. I generally find ways that each animal likes to play and find games that are fun and rewarding.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for as long as I can remember and have 4 years of hands-on experience volunteering 4 days a week at the Southern Oregon Humane Society, working with both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including puppies, senior pets, and animals with different temperaments. I’m patient, reliable, attentive, and truly passionate about providing safe, loving care for every pet. I work evenings, usually starting at 4 PM, so I’m available most weekdays and weekends before 4 PM. House-sitting schedules can be discussed, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs while respecting your home and routines. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to creating a calm, safe environment for every pet in my care.
“Emily was very caring and try her best to be flexible for my last min request. She is very responsible when it comes to care my cat while I’m gone and share with me of my cats behavior to avoid any possible issues. I appreciate her to above and beyond as I love my cat. Will definitely look for Emily to care my cat again and highly recommended! :)”

Your pet will be in safe, loving hands with me and will get plenty of attention, care, and cuddles! 🤎 I’m currently available full-time, including weekdays and weekends 😊 I’m home most of the day, so pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and time to play or relax. I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine, but otherwise they’re welcome to roam the house and enjoy time in the backyard. I’m flexible and always try to follow each pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home! 🐾 I have a fully fenced in large backyard that your pet can explore! My house has plenty of space for your pet to stretch out and make themselves feel at home. I also live near a large dog park!

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 Gaston 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Gaston choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Gaston with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
