“Meet, greet and walk with Mark was great! Franco seemed to have no issues with Mark. I think they’ll be best buds soon! Looking forward to our short holiday break and feel very comfortable with Mark taking care of our bully.”
About: I’ve had experience with dogs for over 5 years now, including those reaching the end of their life span and with specialized health needs. I’m currently a full time student, but have full availability Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and will be open after 1pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays! I can easily crate and walk dogs as needed, and play to fulfill any health/social needs! I’m also good with keeping distance if that required.
About: My family has always had pets! Our last dog who was a Puggle (part Pug and part Beagle) named Pugsley lived for 19 years! He died a few years ago...and we miss him every day! We currently don't own any pets...because we want the flexibility to travel. I retired 2 years ago. We also had a cat named Beano...and he also lived until 19 years old. I don't necessarily have skills...except to love your pet to death! I'm currently retired and have a VERY flexible schedule. We don't own any pets right now...so it'd be really fun to have furry visitors! ROVER is really a good option because I can set my own schedule! We have a front and a backyard. We are not fenced...so if they are outdoors then I'll be sure to be with them...and make sure they are leashed.
“Always reliable, flexible and communicative! My pups love Julie and she has been a big help with some extra care needed for one of the dogs unexpectedly diagnosed with health issues.”
“Annalei is so wonderful! She is great at communicating and does a wonderful job to help to keep our dog safe, happy and reassuring us while we are away. We are so happy to have found her, she is such a good match for our dog. Thanks Annalei for being such a great dog walker!”
“Shianne was fantastic! This was our second booking with Shianne and our dog was so happy to see her! Shianne has everything we would want in a dog walker - clear communication, patience and skill with dogs, warmth and professionalism. I'll definitely look to Shianne any time I can't walk my own dog in the future.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve been pet sitting since middle school and have cared for cats and dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m calm, patient, and detail-oriented, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Owners have especially appreciated my communication, reliability, and the peace of mind I provide through regular updates and photos. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m completely free on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and most weekends, with Thursday availability after 5 PM. This allows me to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I enjoy spending plenty of time with the pets I care for rather than simply stopping by, and I’m happy to work around their routines, feeding schedules, walks, and individual needs. My availability also makes it easy for me to provide consistent care and regular updates while their owners are away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions and their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific house rules. I’m very attentive to safety and details, and I make sure pets are comfortable, supervised, and never left in an unsafe situation. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always know how their pets are doing. My goal is for both the pets and their owners to feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while they’re away.
“Veronica was very responsive on short notice, including coming to our home to meet us before the first walk. She was great with Luna and I will definitely book with her again!”
“Shiying has been excellent with our two dogs on their daily walks! She’s quick to respond and follows the instructions we’ve left for the dogs perfectly. I would highly recommend her for taking care of your pets!”
About: A long term pet sitter for multiple families, positive experiences caring for senior dogs, and always working with respect and love for the furry family members. I also have experience caring for different farm animals! I have wide ranges of availability to accommodate walking and feeding and play schedules, I work 5 days a week but always make time before during and/or after the work day to spend proper time! To me theres no such thing as too much communication when it comes to something this important, pet parents wont have to feel shy about voicing their requests and check ins!
“I really struggle to trust people with my dog, but had a good feeling about Bridget. She has followed all instructions and I’ve very much appreciated her updates. I come home to a happy boy every day so I know he is well taken care of! It’s given me a ton of peace of mind. Definitely will continue to have her walk him until she can’t anymore!”
About: There are few things I love more than animals. Walks maybe. Or good food. All animals have a special place in my heart, and it is an honor to help care for yours. To me, animals are people too. I am currently working full-time but dedicate time every afternoon and evenings to take walks. I’m up for whatever your pet(s) need whether that means a meandering stroll in your neighborhood, a social experience in a dog park or up some hills to get the glutes working. I am always ready and willing to try new hikes and walks. I prefer care in the clients home. The pets are more comfortable at home and my job is not to disrupt the animals routine. I love learning what works for your pet and implementing that routine in a fun healthy way for your pet.
About: Having a rescue dog of my own, I am well-versed in the love, patience, and unique adjustments needed to care for animals. From tiny lapdogs to gentle giants, and high-energy athletes to professional couch potatoes, I adapt my approach to exactly what your dog needs to feel safe and happy while you are away. How I Care for Different Dog Personalities: High-Energy & Active: Need a running buddy or intense fetch sessions? I love keeping active dogs moving and properly stimulated. Low-Energy & Seniors: Perfect for slow walks and peaceful companionship. Big & Small Breeds: Completely comfortable managing large breeds that require confident handling, as well as small dogs who need a delicate touch. Rescue & Anxious Dogs: My experience with rescues means I understand body language, and building trust at their own pace with an emphasis on boundaries. Why Choose Me for House Sitting: I have an incredibly flexible schedule, with no other current employment. I work around your dog’s specific routine so their schedule doesn't skip a beat. Lifelong Lover: I’ve spent my life caring for neighborhood and friends' pets, alongside my own dog's best friends. Home Respect: I treat your home with the same care and respect I treat your furry family members.I look forward to meeting your furry friend and giving you total peace of mind! I recently relocated back to the beautiful Portland area and am fully dedicating my time to animal care! I am incredibly excited to integrate pet care into my daily routine, and my completely open and flexible schedule (unemployed) means I can adapt seamlessly to your exact needs. Whether you need mid-day dog walks while you’re at work or dedicated house-sitting in any neighborhood across town, I’m ready to step in. Because I have zero scheduling conflicts, your furry friend will receive my undivided attention including tailored exercise and plenty of love while you are away. Being an animal person, attention and pet-based care are my highest priority. If your dog is active, I will happily take them on adventures and if they are a couch potato who loves to cuddle, then a calm day/weekend is always appreciated. Having a high energy dog myself, I understand and respect the specific needs of each animal for them to be their best self.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I have a medically complex cat, so I’m very experienced with giving pills and administering medications. As a pet owner myself, I understand how stressful it can feel to be away from your pet. My goal is to care for your animal with the same attention and genuine care I give my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m currently a medical student at Oregon Health & Science University completing a dedicated research year, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout much of the week. Taking dogs on walks or spending time with animals has become one of my favorite ways to step away from studying, get outside, and recharge, so I’d love for your pet to join me! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I'm walking your dog or caring for your pet in your home, I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, playtime, and a positive experience. I always keep cats indoors and dogs leashed unless instructed otherwise in a secure, designated area. I also provide owners with regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have a very positive personality that I bring out in all work that I do. I am a practicing Speech Language Pathologist with a 3 year old pup of my own—Louie. I have taken care of pets through rover, as well as used it for my own pet care needs. I moved around the Portland area a bit, so I took a break from Rover, but now my life is more settled and I’m happy to take your fur-babies on walks, or drop in! I live in Mountain Park and would be happy to cover any “last minute” dog needs that you have. My schedule will allow for 1-3 walks/drop in visits per day. My most availability is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I pride myself in being thorough and paying attention to detail. I will follow any and all instructions that you provide. Having a dog of my own, I can supply poop bags and treats if necessary.
“Our dog doesn't have a lot of experience with sitters, and Allison knew just how to patiently interact with her as she warmed up to her new friend. We're also going through a house move, so our pup and cats are going through lots of change. It feels good to know that Allison brings the experience we need as an animal lover.”
About: I have always loved animals and genuinely enjoy caring for pets as if they were my own. I currently have a 1-year-old dog, and I have also owned two beagles in the past, so I understand the care, patience, and attention pets need at every stage. I am reliable, attentive, and comfortable helping with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship. I also understand how important routines are and will carefully follow your instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I work from home Monday through Friday, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive and reliable care throughout the week. I am able to help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship during the day. Because I am home often, your pet will receive plenty of attention and will not be left alone for long periods of time. I have a fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and stretch their legs. I also have a friendly 1-year-old dog, so your pet may have a companion if they are comfortable around other dogs. I always make safety a priority and will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, crate use, and any special care needs. Your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and love while in my care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Oswego
Phoenix has a depth of knowledge I’ve yet to see in any other pet handler, such as breed-specific needs, training methodology, and difficult-to-spot signs of concern. I trust nobody as much as her to care for my animals as if they were her own, and cannot recommend anybody highly enough. Will always come back to her, fantastic job.
For the last 1.5 years, Sequoia has been adding joy to my dog’s life with all her adventurous walks. Not only does Sequoia send me updates about how my dog (Laika) did that day, she also adds little but important details about their walk together! This lets me imagine what a great time Laika had on her walk. A happy dog makes for a very happy dog-mom, and I don’t feel quite as guilty while at work. Thanks, Sequoia, for being so wonderful! We appreciate all you do.
Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog made all the difference. Finding someone you trust with your pet is extremely important, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found Marissa. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog.
Megan is great! I have a very reactive/slow to warm up dog and Megan has been patient and kind as he has warmed up. My dogs are also very energetic and needy. I feel at ease knowing Megan will take care of them on their daily walks. Megan always provides detailed notes on how the walk went. Megan is always on time and is very reliable. I would recommend Megan to any friend or family!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lake Oswego. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
