“We were very happy the services we received! This sitter took extra time to play with our cats and make sure they were doing well, and provided us with several updates and pictures. We felt good knowing our kitties were well taken care of and we hope to use this sitter again in the future.”

“Lynden was wonderful to work with -- very caring and compassionate -- and it was such a relief knowing she was making daily visits while we were gone.”

“We cannot recommend her enough. She is absolutely fantastic. For the first time, we were able to truly enjoy a relaxed and peaceful vacation knowing our home and kitties were in such great hands. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, with consistent, detailed updates that included photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She is incredibly patient, attentive, and genuinely caring with our cats. It was clear they were not only well cared for but also happy and comfortable. She spent plenty of time playing with them and giving them the attention they needed. She followed all of our instructions carefully and even went above and beyond by providing extra care she felt was needed for our kitties. That level of thoughtfulness and dedication truly stood out. We are so grateful to have found her and would trust her again without hesitation.”

“Colin was phenomenal at taking care of our pup! He left detailed notes that gave us great updates and peace of mind that our dog was well cared for. Colin took our dog out for a walk, even when not necessary, to give her extra attention and stimulation. We came back to one happy dog and safe home!”


About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. At one point my family had eight cats and two dogs. I recently had a rescue cat that followed me home. He had cancer so I had to give him medicine orally every day. I have two 50 lb dogs right now as well. They are both rescue puppies and the first one I got was sick, so I had to give her medicine daily. She is great now! I am comfortable with dogs and cats that require extra care. I am a stay-at-home mom so as long as I'm not dropping off or picking up my boys, I am available. I have a vehicle so I can get to wherever I need to go. When I am at a client's house I will always follow the procedures and guidelines that they feel comfortable with whether I am taking their pet out for a walk or just checking in to make sure their pet is happy and healthy.
“Kena is very dependable & takes good care of my 15 year old cat, even when he avoids her! She always goes the extra mile & checks in with me if she had questions.”

About: I have tons of experience! Dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals you name it! I had tons of different animals in my life as well. I’ve taken care of neighbors, family, friends and others pets. I’m familiar with senior care for elderly cats and dogs as well. I am a single mom with tons of extra time on my hands. If your furry friends love kids I have a best friend for them! If they aren’t too sure that’s okay as well it can just be me! I have a 100% open schedule for whatever you might need I currently have a dog and a cat! If I am in someone else’s home I like to keep the routine as normal as possible so your pet can feel safe and happy.
“Claire is exceptional. She has a breadth and depth of experience in taking care of your pet and house that makes this house-sitting and pet-sitting experience stress-free and enjoyable. We feel fortunate to have met and hired her.”

About: I have years of professional petsitting experience outside of Rover. I'm an attentive, calm presence for your dog when you're away. My background includes volunteering at the humane society and fostering dogs, cats, and small animals, plus growing up with dogs myself — so I'm comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I have specific experience with: Senior dogs Reactive and anxious dogs on walks Puppies Administering medications You can count on me to treat your space with the same respect and care I'd want for my own — tidy, responsible, and mindful of your home while you're gone. My style is steady, calm and confident, which tends to work especially well for dogs who are older or nervous, while high-energy dogs will be safe to express their big personalities. My availability is flexible, so just reach out with what you need and we'll figure out a schedule that works. Weekdays: Mon - Fri: 6am to 11pm overnight sitting, walking, exercise and visits. Weekends: 9am to 12am overnight sitting, walking, exercise and visits I am currently available and open to scheduling. I'm usually able to be flexible when needed. Let me know what you need! I treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want for my own — following your routines closely, from feeding times to walks to medication dosages, and staying mindful of any quirks or triggers you flag ahead of time. I have experience giving medications, so pets with health needs are in safe hands, and I keep things calm and predictable for anxious or reactive dogs and cats. Your home stays secure and tidy while you're away. I'll check in with updates during my visits, so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I love all animals. I have a very active puppy that loves walks and I know that everyone’s lives get busy. I try and be available as needed but I also work full time. My pet care experience has mostly been with my own animals. Everyone is busy and tend to work long days. It sucks when you feel guilty for not spending time with your dog. Luckily with services like this you are free from guilt and know that your dog is being taken care of. I love having the option of someone walking my dog (especially after a very long day). If you are comfortable with it my dog also loves new friends and long walks. I try and walk my dog everyday. I work full time but have a flexible schedule to care for animals. I have two dogs but I split them with my ex and on those weeks, I’m extra available. I have a large condo that has access to lots of walking paths and nature. The animal would feel safe and comfortable at my home. I’m also able to go to your home and provide care (that can be easier for pets). I currently watch a lot of my friends dogs when they are out and have shown that I care for their space and animals.
About: Hello, I'm Taylee, a long-time pet owner with a passion for making new friends and providing quality pet care! Whether it's taking your companion for a walk, tossing a chuck-it, using indoor toys, or just making sure they have familiar company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, happy, and safe. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I strive to create a stress-free environment where pets can feel comfortable and enjoy their time while you're away. I'm currently putting all my focus into this - so my schedule is quite flexible! I primarily travel via public transit which can limit short notice availability. When caring for pets in my client's home, I treat it with the same respect I’d show my own. I ensure pets are safe by securing doors, gates, and any areas they shouldn't access. I prioritize keeping their space clean, feeding them on time, and providing regular walks or play sessions based on their usual habits. I also send photo updates and communicate often to reassure pet parents that their furry family members are in good hands. Unfortunately I am unable to provide care in my personal home.
“This is our second time booking with Sequoia, and we're so glad that we did! They went above and beyond to make sure our cats were well taken care of. Sequoia provided thorough updates at the end of every drop in, and responded to any other questions I had afterwards. They adjusted to my cats needed throughout the time we were gone, by adding in extra time to brush them and ensure that they were as healthy as they could be! In addition, Sequoia communicated with me extremely well with any adjustments on their end. If they needed to check in on the cats earlier or later than scheduled, they let me know ahead of time and were extremely kind and gracious no matter the situation. I am so glad that we were able to book with Sequoia, and we will definitely book with them again in the future.”

About: We love animals! They have so much fun with us on their vacations. We treat them like family. In addition to our own, we have cared for many animals over the years. Mostly dogs and cats, but we also have experience with chickens and horses. We have some basic dog training experience, as well. When we had our dog, we had a sitter that we trusted implicitly, and that peace of mind was invaluable. That is what we aim to offer you. We tend to book up quickly so it's never too soon to ask! We had to say goodbye to our sweet girl, Sally and while we're not ready to have another full-time dog yet, we'd love to hang out with yours. Our schedules are such that one of us is almost always home, so you'll have full coverage for your buddies. Whether it's your place or ours, we will give you the peace of mind in knowing your animal is safe and loved. Dog parks, ball chase, short walks, long walks, hikes, whatever their speed is, we'll make sure it's met. We'll also send photos and updates as often as you'd like. We're available for extended stays and regular, repeat visits. We have never canceled a booking. When there's a dog here, they're the star of the show. One of us works from home, so they'll have daytime companionship. There's usually walks in the morning, play time in a big, fenced yard, hang time, scratches, and toys. Dogs can snuggle on the couch or in bed with us. If we come to you, we will give them all the comforts of home and make sure they're loved on while having a great time. This is a non-smoking home. We have a fully fenced yard and plenty of space in the house if your dog needs to be crated.
“Erin is awesome! She gave my cats their own private suite, checked in daily, and was super respectful of my more shy boy's boundaries. I felt sure that they were being well taken care of. Erin is a great communicator and I will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Ellen was PHENOMENAL! OMG. Could not have gotten luckier with her and will absolutely request her support again. She did a great job and helped us feel so confident and at ease with our aging cat being supported while we vacationed in Central Europe for a few weeks. Can't say enough great things about her as a house/pet sitter!”


About: I bring over 5 years of hands-on pet care experience across long-term house sitting, international shelter work, and specialized medical care. My background includes a 6-month, full-time house sit caring for three dogs and two cats, where I managed strict health regimens—including administering medications every 2 hours at precise times for a dog with a neurological seizure disorder, treating skin conditions and wounds, and managing flea care. I am trained in emergency response and comfortable handling complex medical schedules. Additionally, I volunteered for a year at a shelter in India caring for 60+ dogs, providing physical therapy to paralyzed dogs, assistance with vaccinations, behavioral training, and custom dietary meal prep. Locally, I volunteered at Multnomah County Animal Services, completing intensive training in medication administration and enrichment. I'm certified in Pet First Aid through American Red Cross. Through TrustedHousesitters and caring for friends' pets, I regularly handle multi-week stays for both dogs and cats, ensuring consistent routines, high-level medical attentiveness, and dedicated care. As a freelancer with a fully flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the dedicated attention they deserve. I am available for long-term house sitting, weekend stays, and drop-in visits or walks any day between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM. I prioritize safe, precise, and low-stress care above all else. Certified in American Red Cross Pet First Aid, I am fully equipped to administer oral and topical medications, handle intensive wound care, and maintain extensive care schedules. Because I specialize in caring for anxious cats and special needs pets, I maintain a calm, quiet, and secure environment tailored to your pet's specific routine and comfort level.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Happy Valley
Joss is a true cat whisperer! Our cat Gracie is very timid and easily spooked and I honestly thought she might not adjust to our being gone and remain mostly hidden. Much to my surprise, within the first day or two of visits with Joss, Gracie was greeting her with meows and snuggling with her for daily cuddles! After that, I was able to completely relax and enjoy my vacation. I can't say enough good things about Joss and her true care and commitment to helping my cat feel safe and loved during my absence. Her communication is excellent and her expert cat photography is an added bonus!! Will definitely be using her again for future trips.

I was so happy that we chose Melissa to take care of our kitties while we were on vacation! We didn’t have cell service for a significant portion of our trip, so I wanted someone who had positive reviews for reliability, and Melissa fit the bill. I’m very grateful that I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about what was happening back at home. We will definitely be rebooking Melissa for our next vacation!

Marissa was great. We only had her for a couple of days for drop by visits, but she was accommodating and amenable. She played with the one of our cats that wanted to and sent cute pictures each visit. She brought in the mail and pulled in the garbage cans. Really appreciated her flexibility would easily book her again when we need someone for our 2 cats.

Rob dropped in on my two cats for a week. He proved to be intuitive and thorough with the feeding and litter box cleanings. He made friends easily with my cats, even with the younger, more skittish one. She has been known to hide for at least a week with other caregivers, but warmed to Rob in a couple of days. i would not hesitate to recommend Rob for any pet care needs.

Webb is great with our cats! One of them is allergic to fleas, and had some skin irritation while we were gone. Webb was quick to let me know and was able to give him flea medicine and kept me updated on his progress. They even got my shyer cat to play. Thanks so much, Webb!

We had a last minute opportunity to go out of town and were so grateful to find Chelsea to take care of our two cats! She was prompt, cared about their preferences and needs, communicated well, and even brought in our packages. We'd recommend Chelsea and will definitely reach out to her next time we are going out of town!

I've had Janell sit for my kitties a number of times now. She is great and I will continue booking with her. When I get home the cats have been cared for (they aren't desperate for attention), any kitty messes have been cleaned up, the boxes are clean, cats have food and water, the house is clean, mail has been brought in and she has communicated about her visits while I was gone. Great sitter!
Ryleigh was amazing and took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for a little over two weeks. My flight ended up getting cancelled and moved to the next morning. Ryleigh was more than happy to check in on my kitties for an additional night, with last minute notice. I received photos every day of my little boys, they got play time in, and she was kind enough to also water my plants once a week. Thank you so much, Ryleigh, you’re the best!!

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 .
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.
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 .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
