About: Hi there! It's lovely to meet you. My experience is as follows: - Managed several doggie daycares - Dog trainer at an animal shelter, comfortable with behavioral problems - Basic grooming (everything but a hair cut) - Dog training certified - Experienced with exotic pets - Flexible hours I have a very flexible schedule. I believe all pets require a lot of time, love, and care. And I am happy to give an endless amount to yours! Activities peovided during pet sitting are negotiated on a case - by - base basis. Every pet has different likes and needs and I do my best to be flexible to what this are! I solely work with animals! I have been working in animal welfare for almost 10 years and have two pups and a cat of my own that get lots of attention. Animals are my passion! I provide at home sitting, as my pups at home don't love extra company. Before I agree to any job, I always ask for a meet and greet to discuss expectations, behavioral needs, and most importantly to make sure your pet is comfortable with me!

About: I went to college to be a Vet and although I ended up in sales I definitely learned the basics on how to take care of your pet. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from energetic puppies who need structure and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. My background as a vet student also means you can trust me to be consistent, communicative, and professional. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! 🐾 I’m pivoting from sales into marketing and, while job-hunting, I love spending my time caring for dogs. With a flexible schedule, I can give your pup all the walks, playtime, and snuggles they need. 💕 follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free—feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles included. 🐾 I’ll also keep things tidy and send photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. 💕

About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.

“Laura was wonderful! She cared for our dogs like her own. She is a great caregiver and very kind. Our dachshunds got along with hers and she sent several updates. I would recommend her any day. If you want your pups to come home healthy and happy she’s the perfect sitter. Thanks for taking such good care of our pups again!”

About: As an experienced pet caregiver with a lifelong dedication to animals, I bring a unique set of skills and qualities that set me apart from other sitters. With a background in managing a bustling stable of over 20 horses at a bed and breakfast dude ranch, I've honed my abilities in animal care, from basic needs to specialized attention. Additionally, my competitive experience in showing horses across various disciplines speaks to my commitment to excellence and attention to detail. I have spent my entire life caring for animals even traveling as far as Colorado to dog sit. What truly distinguishes me is my genuine love and deep connection with animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether it's walking your dog, cuddling with your cat, or providing specialized care for senior pets, I approach each furry friend with compassion and dedication. I have a knack for understanding the unique needs of each pet, whether it's training puppies, administering medication, or providing gentle care for senior animals. Above all, I believe in treating pets as cherished members of the family, and I go above and beyond to ensure they feel loved and cared for in my presence. With me, you can trust that your beloved companions will receive the highest quality of care, tailored to their individual needs and preferences. As someone who works from home with a pet-free household, I have the flexibility to prioritize your pet's specific needs within my daily and weekly routine. This means I can dedicate ample time and attention to your furry friend without any distractions. My schedule revolves around providing the best possible care for your pet, whether it's scheduling regular walks, playtime sessions, or administering medication as needed. With my lifelong experience caring for various animals, I understand the importance of consistency and routine in meeting their needs. Whether your pet requires a structured feeding schedule, regular exercise, or just some extra cuddle time, I can accommodate their needs seamlessly into my daily routine. My commitment to providing personalized care means that your pet will receive the attention and affection they deserve, tailored to their individual preferences and requirements. You can trust that when you entrust your pet to my care, they'll receive the highest quality of attention and love, all within the comfort of a pet-free, home-based environment. In my home, as well as when caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a nurturing environment for furry companions. Living in a quiet neighborhood away from the highway, with a fenced-in yard and ample space for animals to run and play, I ensure that pets under my care have a secure and comfortable environment to thrive in. When pets are in my home, they become part of the family, receiving personalized attention and care tailored to their needs and preferences. Whether it's providing a cozy spot for them to relax, engaging in stimulating playtime activities, or ensuring they receive their meals on time, I go above and beyond to make them feel at home. Similarly, when caring for pets in their own environment, I prioritize maintaining a familiar and safe space for them. I respect their routines and surroundings, ensuring minimal disruption to their daily lives while providing the same level of dedicated care they would receive at home. With a background in managing a stable of horses and a lifelong dedication to animal welfare, safety is always at the forefront of my mind. You can trust that your beloved pets will be in capable hands, receiving the highest level of care and attention in a secure and nurturing environment.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hillsboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hillsboro is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 407 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hillsboro. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hillsboro. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
