About: I’ve grown up with a variety of animals. From- ferrets, cats, guinea pigs, horses and dogs. I love them all! I’ve taken care of all ages from puppies to seniors. I work Monday-Wednesday full time. 4 days off is amazing, but also makes me a lil stir crazy. And with nice weather upon us, I’d love to get your four legged baby out to get some leg stretches! My dog, Skeeter goes absolutely everywhere with me; from rodeos, hiking, paddleboarding, family BBQs, you name it. If I’m there Skeeter is there. I’m used to high energy so I’d love to get your fur babies tuckered out from a walk! I have a fenced in yard, tracker on my own dogs collars. I’ve instilled recall training in my dogs to create less of a hassle.
About: I have taken care of a variety of breeds of dogs and cats throughout my life. My parents have several dogs through six different breeds. Apart from feeding, watering, and running my parents dogs, I was often relied on by community members to be their dog sitter and to feed, water, and clean pens when they were unable to do. I am a master’s student at Eastern Oregon University doing the online program. I can easily work around schoolwork everyday. I would love to take breaks to take care of animals. I am willing to do whatever it takes to take care of your animals. I can put them in a crate or let them outside.
“Arlene (Harley) was great!! She was flexible and worked with my schedule, despite my last minute booking. She was communicative and provided good updates. She even went up and beyond cleaning up after my dogs had an accident.”
“Marcus did a great job in a less than ideal situation. We (me and 5 cats) had just moved to the area one week before I had to leave for a week. Just uprooted from the only home they'd ever known, no routine, boxes everywhere, confined to one room and a stranger coming in to feed them! Marcus did great. Stayed in touch and kept me informed the whole time. Had great suggestions when we had one little hiccup, and kept everybody safe, loved (as much as they'd let him) and fed. They'll be all over him next time!”
About: I am a HUGE Animal Lover, loving all creatures. I am a mature woman who has had animal companions my entire life. I have worked off and on over a 30 year period as a professional pet groomer, and as a pet sitter for family, clients, friends and neighbors. As well as through Rover in California. I was in California for three years, to spend time with my aging/ailing Mother, hence my pic's and reviews aren't local, but for Bandito in dt Portland. But Oregon has been my home since 2000. I moved to La Grande in Dec. after my apartment building in Portland caught fire on 11/30/25. My adult son has lived here for a decade and his Grandparent's the Slaters have been here forever! When I was in Cali. I was able to do boarding/sitting at home on a quarter acre. I am unfenced in a rental here in La Grande, so I am only open to house/pet sitting in your home. I have experience with dogs, cats, Squirrels, pet Rats, Birds and some reptiles. Just ask me if I am willing of what ever it is you have, then show me what needs to be done. And Yes!, open to some farm animals as well! I love ALL of God's creatures! I have been referred to as a Dog Whisperer by friends and family that know me best, as I do well at reading animals energy, expressions, body language and cues. Basically, I love animals and enjoy turning this love into a service for your convenience and mine. I have a short list of requirements for pet sitting: •Dog's must be non aggressive for the safety of the dog(s) and myself. •My Day time Pet Sitting rate is for up to an 8 hour period, additional time will be charged accordingly. If you need more time, please communicate with me and we will come to an agreed rate. Overnight stays have different listed rates. *My Drop In's Rate is for a 30 mins., or a 1 (one) hour period. *My Walk Rate's are for 30 mins., & 60 mins. Dog's must be leashed trained. •Overnight Sitting will have an agreed upon time for you to return before it turns into another charged day. Extra time will be charged accordingly at $10 per hour. Or... •Custom quotes are available for longer stays if you are going off for a weekend or a week long vacation for example. I am for the most part flexible on starting and ending times with longer stays for your travel ease. I am flexible within reason and easy to work with. Please enjoy my photo's and thank you for considering me! I have a small online business that I work at daily in one aspect or another, so this makes my time flexible. If I am house/pet sitting, I can bring some aspect with me so I don't get behind in my endeavors! I am very conscientious about safety for any animal. My current yard is not fenced and my dog has adjusted quickly to holding back while I am first to step out and check the yard for any neighborhood animals, dogs, cats, deer, squirrels and the like. Cat's stay indoors unless they are harnessed and leashed up, or in a cat backpack!
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals/pets. I can clean litter boxes and pick up poo with the best of them. I love to go on walks and scratches and pets are my favorite. I drive school bus, so I have a lot of time on my hands during the day. I take the summer off and should have lots of free time. I have a dog door and a fenced yard. I have 8 chickens and 3 cats and 2 rats and 1 doghtor. We are animal friendly. The cats will stay mostly hidden but one will come out and visit.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
