“Thanks to Theresa I wasn't concerned about leaving my kitty alone for a couple days. She listened carefully to instructions and was attentive to our cat's needs. She sent me an update and photos of their playtime together, which I greatly appreciated. I will not hesitate to book her again the next time we plan to be away.”
“Andrea was great at initiating our first meet-up as well as continuously communicating throughout her drop in visits. Our pet was well cared for and not nearly as anxious as she usually is when we are away.”
“A last minute request after our original sitter fell through, Allison made time for a meet and greet and made extra effort during the drop in to ensure our kitty was safe and taken care of. Great communication during the visit. Will definitely use services again for future trips!”
“Alexandria was awesome! She is a good communicator, and made a connection with my birds that other pet sitters were not able to do. My birds even cooperated with her to go to bed! I will call on Alexandria the next time I'm needing a pet sitter.”
“Adara is very professional, friendly, and reassuring — a fabulous set of qualities for just what we needed: a reliable cat-friend to check up on two different kitties. 1000% will book again!”
“We have a pretty demanding routine with three cats and a Guinea pig, but Vai and Adam were more than up for it. They communicated well, sent pictures, and went above and beyond when one of our cats got sick. We would definitely recommend them because it’s clear that they care.”
“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!”
“Emily took great care of our cats and chickens! Our cats are 18 years old and require medications twice a day. She sent notes (via Rover cards) after every visit and also sent us many photos. This gave us such peace of mind and heart. Thank you, Emily!”
“Heather was wonderful!!! Can’t express how safe and relieved we felt having Heather watch our 3 cats for over a week while we were on vacation. She made extra sure that they were taken care of, even offering to make an extra visit during a heat wave to be sure they were ok since our AC is out. Heather was super kind, thoughtful, and professional. Loved the sweet photos of our cats as well, would definitely rebook! Thank you Heather!!!”
About: I grew up in a household with lots of animals. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chinchillas, hamsters, bearded dragons & many more! I can walk, administering medicine & give really good pets. I am currently working part time so I have the time to check in every 4 hours or so. I am happy to do what makes animal and owner happy. I am a clean, gentle person. I pick up after myself, and any messes animals make. Animals in my care will be loved as my own, and taken care of as such.
About: What sets me apart from others is that I will spend quality time getting to know the pet and his/her individual needs. Building a trusting relationship with the animal is of the upmost importance. My weekly schedule will allow for me to be available to work providing pet care services 20-30 hours a week. Along with being reliable I am also willing to be flexible. Again, I get to know the animal and his/her needs while honoring the instructions and guidance from the owner. Establishing a solid, trusting relationship with the pet and its owner allows for a positive experience for all involved.
“Our dogs can be a lot to handle, but Olivander took great care of them! They were clearly happy in the photos he sent, and they were safe and happy when we got home.”
“We have never left our dogs alone and they seemed to be extremely stressed based on the mess that they left. Estrella did an amazing job caring for them and cleaning up. She exceeded my expectations and did an amazing job!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hillsboro
Caitlin was so fabulous with our little Piper. Piper spent the first 18 months of her life in and out of shelters and foster homes so she’s extra skittish. Caitlin was so kind, calm, and gentle and earned Piper’s trust within the first few drop ins. We’re so sad that Caitlin is moving out of the area but we’re grateful for the love and care she gave Piper and know she will be a great match with pets in her new area.
Our cat, Mittens, walked into our lives two months ago. She was a stray and her personality has proven to be difficult for all who know her. She has two modes, friendly and cuddly or violent. After scratching our nine year old neighbor who was trying to watch her while we were out of town as well as an adult neighbor who was also trying to help, I contacted Andrew to see if he could take over. Andrew was able to understand our complicated kitty and did a great job caring for her while we were gone. Mittens adored her time with Andrew, and minimized her attacks under his care. He spent time getting to know her and playing with her. He brought toys and cuddles. He offered helpful tips and resources for taming our spicy feline. I hope that Andrew is available when we next go out of town. I also hope that our spicy stray calms down. Thank you Andrew for making our time away one thousand times less stressful.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hillsboro. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
