“Alaina is the best! She was very patient and understanding with my shy pup. She was also amazing with my elderly pup and was very observant of their behavior. She really helped me feel less stressed about being away from all three of my pups.”
“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!”

“I was very impressed with the thorough job that was done and communication updates. She went well above expectations and made our trip more worry-free about our pets ?. Thank you ? for your help. Deb and Dennis”


About: I’m a teacher who loves to take care of pets in his spare time. I can walk your dog, play with your dog or cat, take care of your cats needs and can house sit as needed. I am free on Thursdays and Fridays as far as week days go. I also can work on the weekend too. I just need notice so that I can accommodate. I am very good at respecting the space of the owners home and can make sure that things are in good order both during and after pet sitting.
“Emily has been my only pet sitter I work with, she is been super responsible and realizable while I am away and very detail-oriented when caring for my marshmellow. I appreciate her dedication all this time, will keep connecting!”

“Great experience! This was our first time booking with a pet sitter so we were a bit nervous, but we really lucked out with Eliza! She was very kind, and our cat and dog both loved her too! Having someone who clearly has experience and a true love for working with animals is so reassuring when you’re away. I also appreciated the thorough communication and level of attention to detail, it was very reassuring, and great to see photos too!”

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!

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.

About: Raised with a lifelong love for animals, I bring patience, compassion, and extra love and attention to every pet I care for. I treat every furry friend like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I’m a full-time online student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Since I can manage my coursework from home, I’m able to work pet walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting into my daily routine. I can be flexible with scheduling and work around your pet’s needs and routines to provide consistent, loving care and attention. I provide pet sitting exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in their familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any specific care instructions.
About: IMPORTANT: I will be going back to school Sept 12, no longer available for rover. I think what sets me apart is the fact that I am not just doing this as a side hustle, but as a lifestyle. Animals are my passion, and I want my career to be surrounded by animals. I'm studying animal science, where a big part of my day-to-day life is learning about animals. Animals play a big role in my day-to-day life, ensuring their safety, happiness, and overall well-being. My family has a black lab who is very friendly and absolutely loves swimming and the outdoors. We give a lot of our time to him. We also have a cat that is scared of a lot, but ultimately friendly. I try to get dogs active outside and enjoying life rather than just sitting around. Even if it's just staying inside, I value giving them the attention and love they need as well, instead of just leaving them be. I make sure they go outside to do their business and get as much fresh air as possible.
About: I truly love what I do! 🐾 I’ve been a full-time trusted Rover sitter for 4 years, but my experience caring for animals spans over 15 years. From dogs and cats to reptiles and farm animals, I’ve worked with pets of all kinds and temperaments. My goal is to provide reliable, stress-free care so both you and your pets can feel comfortable, safe, and at ease while you’re away! When I house sit, I treat your home and pets with the same level of care and respect as my own. I understand how important it is to have a responsible sitter, and I take pride in keeping your space tidy, secure, and exactly how you left it. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. (For 24/7 care, or pets that can’t be alone over 4 hours- rate is $125 a night) What you can expect when I house sit: ✔️ A structured, attentive routine for your pet. I will follow any care guide that’s provided ✔️ A 30-minute walk per day (or more if preferred) ✔️ A clean and tidy home upon your return (leave me a broom & supplies, and I’ll freshen up your space!) ✔️ Consistent communication and updates I will NEVER: ✔️Bring over guests without discussing prior ✔️ Leave a pet alone longer than they’re used to. I prioritize maintaining their routine so they feel secure during my stay :) I’ve had a Boxer and a Beagle in my family for over a decade. I completed training school to learn proper manners and behavior techniques, which I apply as needed with the pets I care for. My dogs remain at my family home, so they won’t be present during pet sits I’m lucky enough to care for animals full time! I’m also a (very) part-time personal assistant on most Tuesdays and Fridays, but I always keep my availability updated If you have an athletic or active dog, I'm the person for you! Trips to parks, running the trails, and playing in the water can happen any time. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable

About: From middle school to college, my family cared for a sweet rescue pup named Ginger! I cuddled with her as often as I could, played music for her, and took her on walks to chase rabbits. Nowadays I live with an adorable cat aptly named Kitty (who's napping against my leg as I type this)! She's my landlady's pet; I look after Kitty every time I'm alone in the house, and Kitty always brightens up my day. :)) I want to learn more about different pet personalities and how to care for them with the respect they deserve. I keep my eye out for unique behaviors and body language quirks, and I'm always game for playtime to help keep their minds and bodies enriched. If your pet likes music, let me know and I'll bring my flute or cello over to entertain them! As a recent college grad, I've got an early morning part-time retail job and am in the midst of applying for a second daytime gig. I anticipate having some afternoons and evenings free! I treat home visits like a peaceful hike in the woods - leave no trace, and enjoy the company! I don't go poking and prodding around unless instructed to. I DO give lots of head pats and scritches if pets want them! I'm careful to refrain from over- and under-feeding pets, and I'm always open to hearing what I can do to improve in any area of pet care. If you'd like photos or videos of your pet(s) from my visits, I'll happily oblige!

About: I’ve been passionate about animals since childhood and have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. Throughout my life, I’ve also cared for a variety of other animals, including cats, small mammals, reptiles, and birds. I’ve personally raised and cared for many different dog breeds, including Pomeranians, Maltese, Poodles, Shiba Inus, Retrievers, Shepherds, and mixed breeds. I’m familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs, from playful puppies to senior dogs. When I had pets of my own, I also entrusted them to pet sitters, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone reliable, caring, and attentive. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved companion in someone else’s care. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide attentive, personalized care in a clean, comfortable apartment with no other pets. My community has convenient outdoor areas and lovely walking paths for exercise and potty breaks. I'll also send you photo updates throughout the day so you can have peace of mind! I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including weekdays and weekends. With advance notice, I can often adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine. Feel free to reach out anytime🤍🐾
About: I have dogsat for my grandparents numerous times, sometimes up to two weeks before. I’ve had pets my entire life and know how to walk, care and feed them! Pet care fits in my schedule because I care full time for my own cat, who is a Manx breed. He is pretty high energy and is very active, so I’m always giving him attention and caring daily for his needs. I care for my pets at home by making sure they’re fed and watered regularly, and taken outside regularly, as well as giving them attention.
About: Growing up I was always surrounded by dogs and cats. I have pet sit for many of my friends and families and have worked with many different dogs breeds, including chihuahuas, golden retrievers, huskies, vizslas, and belgian malinois. I have some experience in training my family dogs and have done a lot of research of dog behavior and training. I like to spend as much of my time as possible around animals. Most of my days are spent hanging out with my cat, working with dogs at a kennel, and learning what I can about animals. My schedule is pretty flexible and I would love to add caring for your animal into my day! When caring for any animal my top priority is always to keep them safe. It’s important to me to learn about their temperament, behavior, and health conditions so I can keep them happy and healthy, and notice if something is off. While taking dogs for walks I ensure a safe distance between other dogs and avoid interactions with them. I am vigilant about body language and any surroundings that could be harmful to a dog such as things on the ground, dangerous plants, heat, or harsh walking surfaces. When caring for someone’s pet in their home I ensure clear communication about their boundaries and expectations. I make sure every animal gets the right amount of food and medication, has a comfortable space, and that they get plenty of love. If I am unsure about something, I will always reach out to check in to ensure your pet is getting it’s proper care.
About: I just recently moved to Oregon from Las Vegas. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from high energy puppies to mellow seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with pets whether we’re out on walks or hanging out at home. I’m big on clear communication, keeping routines consistent, and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m new to Oregon and have full availability right now, including weekdays, weekends, and evenings. Happy to be flexible based on your dog or cat’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving meds, or creating a calm space, I do my best to keep things stress free. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and honest check-ins.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gaston is $37 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $48 per visit.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
