“Ash is amazing! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave during our introductory visit and her subsequent care of our two kitties. I appreciated the updates as she cared for our fuzzies. Highly recommend!”
About: I’m a serious plant guy and have over 130 of my own house plants. I also set up drip irrigation in my yard. I love cats and would be happy to stop in to check on them, clean their litter boxes and give them water. I am an early riser so taking care of animals in the morning and evening works great for me. I am available all days of the week unless I am out of town. I would be happy to water or feed your plants as well as ensure humidifiers are full. I am happy to let your cats in or out, feed them, provide fresh water and clean litter boxes. I would love the opportunity to play with your cat and ensure they have somewhere to scratch.
“Kena did a great job at checking in on my cats while I was out of town. She communicated well and sent updates each day. I would definitely book again in the future!”
“Faith is so wonderful with my dogs. She walked them to the trail all the time which is their favorite place to walk. She even carried a bottle water for the dogs when the weather was very hot. I highly recommend Faith to other dogs owners.”
“Michelle was great with our challenging kitty! He loved her, even though he showed some attitude towards her on 1 day, which she dealt with professionally. The house was clean and dishes were washed. Everything was great!”
“As always Elizabeth is wonderful with my dogs and is available for last minute requests in addition to her daily dog walks. I would recommend her without hesitation. She treats my pups like her own.”
“Heather is an enthusiastic pet sitter! I was worried I wouldn't be able to find a cat sitter on rover, but she fit the bill! Her own experience with special needs cats and her obvious love of them means I will be calling her back.”
“Jayne was incredibly attentive and caring with our sweet girl, Penny. Her report cards were written with intention and care. Thank you for all of the hard work and love, Jayne!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters: We treat every guest dog like part of the family. Rather than just providing supervision, we integrate your dog into our daily routine and pack structure. This means your dog enjoys social time, structured play, and a calm, balanced environment—not just a place to stay. We understand canine body language and pack dynamics, which helps us introduce new dogs smoothly and safely. Whether your pup is full of energy or more reserved, we match their pace and make sure they feel at home. We also have experience with: -Senior dog care, including medication and mobility needs -Dogs with anxiety or who need extra reassurance -Multi-dog households and managing different temperaments We keep you updated with photos and notes, and always aim to return your dog even happier than when they arrived! I do typically work at 10am, so any hand offs after that time do need to be quick but can work. Anything before 10am I do have a bit of time to socialize and give same day tours. Since I work from home with a very flexible schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. This allows me to provide regular potty breaks, scheduled meals, walks, and plenty of cuddle time or one-on-one attention whenever your dog needs it. Your dog will never be left waiting—whether it’s playtime with the pack, quiet rest, or extra snuggles. I’m able to quickly adjust to their needs throughout the day and keep a calm, consistent environment that makes them feel safe and loved. Being home most of the time means your pup will always have companionship and supervision, with frequent updates sent to keep you connected to their day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and sense of belonging are our top priorities. We have a securely fenced yard where all dogs are always supervised during potty breaks and outdoor play. Inside, guest dogs don’t just stay downstairs—they’re fully integrated into our family routine and spend time alongside our boys in all common areas. Crates remain available and are used only if it suits each dog’s comfort and routine. We maintain a spotless environment—blankets, crates, toys, and dog beds are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized between visits to ensure every pet has a fresh, safe space. Whether it’s playtime in the living room, cuddles on the couch, or lounge breaks in the quiet corners, your dog will feel like part of the pack in a calm, loving home.

“Ashley did a great job with our two kitties. She popped over to our house prior to our trip to meet the kitties and know her way around the house. We appreciated the daily updates and photos, as well as cleaning up the messes the kids had made. Any concerns we had were taken care of. Thank you Ashley!”
About: I’m a current foster home for the Troutdale shelter. I’ve taken legal cases and regular foster cases until they are adopted. I love all animals and just want to help those in need. I currently work from home so I’m able to care for your pet all day. I’m able to play, love on them and walk them. I don’t have a fenced yard but I’m able to walk your furry friend or crate them. However you want them to be taken care of.
“Sarah did a fantastic job taking care of our cat! It was amazing to hear and see pictures of how interactive and unafraid our very shy cat who normally hides from visitors. Thank you Sarah!!❤️❤️❤️”
About: I grew up with animals always around, dogs, cats, and birds, but am not ready to have one of my own again at this time. I work from home so will be available to your pets at all times. I have a big fenced back yard to play in. I limit stays to 1 household at a time to ensure everyone is familiar and comfortable with eachother. I am comfortable with pets of all ages and experienced in administering any medicines needed. I do live with a partner, while he is an animal lover too, I will be the sole sitter for your pets during their stay. I really look forward to meeting your fur babies! I work from home so I’ll be available at all hours of the day. My workday usually starts at 7am but that is highly flexible. My house is small but I have a large fenced in backyard and am usually okay just keeping the door open for pets to go in and out as they like during down time. I prefer for your pets to stay with me but if you need me to come to your place that can be arranged. I will respect your home and your home’s safety however you deem. I’m here to help you and your pets feel as comfortable as possible while you are away

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gresham
Penny was amazing taking care of my babies while I was away for a week. She did drop-in visits and was always on time, reliable, and made sure they were well taken care of. She checked that they had eaten, had fresh water, and spent time playing with them and giving them attention. I had five puppies and two adult dogs, so it was definitely a lot to handle, but Penny did such a great job with all of them. She was patient, caring, and made sure each one got the attention they needed. She also sent me several pictures every day, which made me so happy and gave me peace of mind knowing they were doing well. It’s never easy leaving your pets behind, but Penny made my 1st Rover experience so much easier. I truly appreciate all the love and care she showed my babies and would definitely recommend her! ❤️🐾
Lilieana was so kind and gracious in the booking process. She also lives nearby so made everything pretty easy. The pups looked pleased on the pictures and are happy that we are home . Frankie sniffed around for a little while wondering if she was going to come back. Definitely a great sitter pick.
Reagan is a true gem! Very communicative, responsive and willing to go out of her way to make sure our animals are well taken care of. We have a dog sit with her next month for a week and couldn’t feel more at ease with it. We’re so glad we found her and highly recommend if you’re looking for a caring pet sitter!
Michelle was absolutely amazing and a life saver! We had to leave town last minute to attend a family funeral and she was able to help our sweet boy Mr. Paul in a pinch! Michelle was also great about pivoting our request when funeral plans changed last minute. Can’t recommend her enough, she kept our boy happy and taken care of while we were gone!
Jaxson was amazing with my dog Aspen! He took her on long walks, played with her, and always made sure she was comfortable. He was super reliable, left the house clean, sent lots of photo updates, and even wrote detailed notes after each visit. His rates are great too. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Nathan was my first sitter on Rover and has set the bar high with his exceptional care for my two high energy dogs. He is flexible, caring, and accommodating to their unique needs. He is able to match their individual energy levels and play styles and tailor visits to their preferences. Nathan is communicative and overall a joy to work with.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gresham 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 Gresham 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 .

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 Gresham 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.
