“I’ve never felt safe leaving my babies with anyone, but you have taken such great care of them and truly eased my mind while I was away! You followed all my lengthy notes about their care, and in the photos they looked SO happy 🥹! I appreciate you so so so much, and I will definitely choose you again whenever we go out of town again!!!”
“Emily is always great! She's taken care of my cats three times now. My cats love her and she's always good about giving me all the updates on the Rover cards, with pictures. I will absolutely ask Emily to help me again.”
“Anika came by for the meet and greet and was exactly on time! She is very friendly and personable. She took care of our two cats while we were gone (although she didn't see much of Zipper because he's shy). She sent pictures each day of playing with Pixie. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Anna came for a meet and greet with me and Sunny. Everything went well. Anna stopped by a few days later to take my 8 month old goldendoodle outside for a potty break and to feed him dinner while I was at work. Anna was punctual, professional and provided me with awesome pictures of Sunny and an update text message of her visit. 10/10 recommend.”
About: I have been a pet owner for over 20 years and have taken care of a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, fish, and guinea pigs. I treat my own fur baby, Dexter, like my own child and I will do the same for yours! He’s my best friend, we do everything together & that’s exactly how I will treat your pup or kitty. I would love to take your fur baby on a nature hike, to the local coffee shop for a puppuccino, to a park to play fetch, or even just playing and lounging around the home. I am here to keep your pet safe and comfortable. Whatever works well and best for them. I work a full-time hybrid position, so my schedule can be flexible at times with advanced scheduling. I am typically able to interact with your fur child as much as needed! We can go on a short walk or hang out at home before I go to work, during my lunch break, and after I am off! Weekends are usually wide open availability. I am no longer offering boarding services at my home, however, I would love to check in on your pet at your home as much as needed. Due to having a pup of my own with his own needs, I will not be able to spend the night at your home. Please note, this prior to booking. I am only available for drop-in visits. Drop in visits typically range from 3-7 times per day, depending on your pet’s needs. I want to ensure your pet is comfortable and safe in the comfort of their home.
“Nathan is taking such good care of my very active doggy duo! He's helping them (and me!) through a transition to being home alone all day for the first time in their lives and it's been a tremendous relief to know that they are getting exercise, enrichment, and attention from Nathan during the day. He has been communicative, flexible, and highly trustworthy. It's clear that Nathan is a dog lover and understands their needs. I'm so grateful for his time with my dogs and he has my wholehearted recommendation!”
“Nadia is so attentive and understanding with my dog who has some separation anxiety. She’s spent a lot of time earning her love and trust until she was comfortable to go on walks with her and play. She writes detailed descriptions of their day together and sends lots of photos to give me so peace of mind that she’s in good hands :) couldn’t recommend her more ❤️”
About: Between owning pets for 10+ years and helping friends and family take care of their pets I have a lot of experience with senior dogs who require extra care and things like medication to puppies who just want lots of play time! I work from home which provides me a lot of flexibility in my schedule, both weekly and daily and whether it's taking pets on walks or house sitting. I live in a safe residential area and will take your pet on daily walks, I also work from home which means I am very flexible to work from any location and provides me with the ability to spend lots of time with your pet
“Michelle was so friendly, responsive, and trustworthy. I had such peace of mind going out of town knowing that she was looking after my cats. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

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.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since high school from family to friends. Mostly have experience with dogs. Own one myself cute adorable golden retriever named hina.

Plus a big dog park where I take mine.
About: We are gentle, caring, and experienced pet parents ready to welcome your pet(s) into our home. I (Alex) have been caring for pets of family and friends for well over a decade. I once worked at the WSU veterinary school and have experience volunteering at vet clinics and fostering. I have always been passionate about animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. My partner Dalton is a work from home dad to our three furbabies and one human baby. We have plenty of indoor and fenced outdoor space for your pet(s) to roam. Whether they want to cuddle up on the couch with us, or prefer a quiet, secluded space of their own, we can accommodate your pet's needs. Our goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in our home. If you need drop-in visits or dog walking, I have availability for that too! Don't hesitate to reach out with questions. We value open, frequent communication and would love a meet and greet with you and your pet(s) to see if we are a good fit. I work night shift in healthcare- I have several days off in a row every other week which is when I would be available for pet sitting. This includes weekends and weekdays, as well as some holidays. My partner works from home full-time so is available to help out as needed. We have a large one story home with plenty of lounge spaces for your pet to get comfortable. We also have a large fully fenced, grassy backyard. Our two elderly dogs are good with other dogs, but we also have the ability to give your pet(s) their own gated off space, or crate, if needed.
About: We love our pets and are looking forward to loving your pets as well! I thoroughly enjoy dog, cat and house-sitting. I've been pet/house sitting for friends for 20+ years.

We have a sweet 1-year-old Chiweenie named Bella who we got from the Oregon Humane Society in December. We also have a sweet 1-year-old male Tabby cat named Buddy who is best buds with our dog :) Your adored pets will be well taken care of and loved in our home or yours. Feel free to reach out to me and see if we'd be a great fit for one another.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I’m active, dependable, and happy to help with walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and giving your pet some extra attention while you’re away or busy. I treat every pet with patience and care, and I’ll always make sure you get updates so you know they’re in good hands. I work a full-time schedule during the week, but I’m available most weekday evenings after 4:30PM and have even more flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to help with evening walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company when you need an extra hand. I know how much trust it takes to have someone care for your pet and come into your home. I’ll always treat your pet, your space, and your routine with respect. I’ll follow any instructions you leave, keep a close eye on your pet while they’re in my care, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and anything else are secure. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know everything is going well.
“Kena did a great job & was very conscientious in her car of Murphy. She asked questions when needed to know something, which I really appreciated. I will definitely use her when booking another reservation!”

Real talk, Reagan is my go-to sitter whenever I need to go out of town. Kind, communicative, and considerate, Reagan has been great watching over my two cats, be it the sweetheart Primm or the more antisocial Lola. She takes her time to show each pet attention while also considering their temperaments, allowing them to warm up and approach her on their own terms while still letting them know they're cared for. I would absolutely suggestion Reagan with zero doubt or hesitation.
Heather has been doing drop in visits for my 2 German shorthairs for the past year, since they were puppies. She is always reliable and very easy to communicate with. She has great availability and has been so flexible and understanding with scheduling and last second changes.
Jessica clearly loves dogs very much and is wonderfully patient. She was so great and calm when our pup (who gets overexcited and pees when meeting new people) peed on her shoes. Jessica came when promised, took great photos of the pups, and hung out with them and played for bit. She allowed us to have a long day out, and it was great to have someone we could trust help out our furbabies.
Lilieana went above and beyond taking care of my girl while I was away. I haven’t been away this long from my cat before, but Lilieana made sure she gave Plum all the love and care she would’ve gotten as if it were me! She was very attentive and let me know if she noticed anything or had any questions. Would absolutely recommend. ⭐️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gresham is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 6,476 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gresham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gresham. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
