“Kaitlyn is a great cat-sitter. I returned to a quite happy cat. She followed all provided instructions and promptly replied during the entire duration of the cat sitting. Even though my cat is pretty shy around new people, Kaitlyn quickly earned his trust. Kaitlyn provided many pictures and prompt updates for each day's visit and was thoughtful enough to double-check that I was returning as expected. I unequivocally recommend her as a cat-sitter and would book again.”

About: My name is Anna, I'm 29 years old, and I love all animals. My favorites would be dogs and cats! They are worth having someone who cares about them to watch over them while their family is away, and I can provide that for them. I have had dogs and cats since I was a kid, as well as many experiences watching friends’ pets, so I have quite a bit of experience. Know that your own baby would be spoiled and taken amazing care of with me! I would so enjoy taking care of your dog(s). I have a friendly, playful dog who would love to have company at my house during doggy day care or boarding stays. I offer daycare and boarding in my apartment, and I also do pet sitting in your home, or drop in visits as needed. I am also available for dog walking. I’m currently taking college classes online, so my schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time to give your pets attention all throughout the day! I typically give tons of pets and cuddles if they want them, my priority is their comfort and happiness while they’re here. I live in a ground floor apartment with quick access to outside, so I can take your pup potty plenty of times easily. Dogs are allowed on furniture, they are part of the family while they’re here! I never leave them alone, if I have to leave (which is rare, I try to plan my errands around my dog schedule) I will take them with me in the car, or crate them, whatever works best for you and your dog! My own dog, Max, loves new and familiar dog friends coming over. He likes to play with other dogs, but he’s pretty gentle and mostly likes to play tug and fetch. He loves keeping other dogs company and just being their friend, so your dog won’t be lonely!

About: Hi there! I am someone who genuinely loves animals and understands how important it is to find a sitter you can fully trust with your pet. Pets are part of our family! I approach pet sitting with patience, consistency, and communication with owners. I adapt my care style to match every pets personality and energy. I am comfortable working with younger pets who need calm guidance and stimulation as well as older seniors who may need a slower pace, extra patience, medication and low stress environment. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, I aim to provide the same level of care and attention I would want for my own animals! I have a very open and flexible schedule! You can highly expect me to accept times and dates requested through the app. I expect my schedule to stay this consistent for at least the next 4-5 months. I currently have 2 cats at home and would not be able to take in pets but am more than willing to drive to take care of pets in the comfort of their own home! I take time to understand each pets needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, etc. I aim to create a low-stress, caring environment while treating your home with respect and keeping you updated with regular messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I am experienced at caring for small to medium sized dogs, and have experience walking large dogs. I love to play, cuddle dogs, and take them on long walks. I volunteered for a few months at the shelter cleaning cages and taking small dogs out to walk and play. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, allowing me to spend as much time with your pet as needed! I am adaptable and can adjust to your pet's specific needs. I am able to travel or stay at your home to watch your pets. I am serious about safety and keeping doors locked at all times. I like to keep the home clean, especially for your return.

I always go above and beyond for each animal I care for, reassurance is key when it comes to any kind of relationship especially when it comes to new ones so I will always do my best to ensure the owner and pet are both happy.

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 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.

I highly recommend Emily. She took EXCELLENT care of my dog! He is blind and takes a couple daily medications and she was great with him, making sure he received his medicine and food on time. She gave him plenty of exercise, lots of play time, and most importantly, attention and love. She also sent lots of photos, which helped me feel confident that he was happy and taken care of while I was away. Emily even went above and beyond by providing extra visits when our flights home were delayed. It’s clear that Emily loves animals and wants them to have the best possible care. <3

Becky is very sweet and reliable. She was able to meet my dogs and quickly built rapport with my very shy little pup. It was only one week later and my shy baby was giving her kisses and not barking when she came to care for her. Becky sends me photos from the visit and regularly checks in. I appreciate her help with my grandma dog and the extra love and care she needs. Becky has been great and I am very thankful for her help!

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.
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 Hillsboro 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 .
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
