“Natalie was great! There aren't enough stars to rate what a good job she did dog & house sitting for us. We were impressed from the very beginning with her prompt response to our request. At our first meeting to meet us and our dog she came prepared to work with her supply pouch including dog treats. While we were gone, she was super responsive sending us multiple pictures daily and keeping us informed when she came and went. We felt confident our dog and our home were in good hands. We will definitely call on Natalie again!”

“Amani is THE best. We’ve had her watch our dog Hero many many times and we can always count on her to take amazing care of him and our house. Hero loves her and all the miles of walking they clock every time she stays with him. Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Selena was awesome with my dogs and cat. She accepted the booking on short notice and was on time and professional. She provided great care for them and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend and will utilize her services again. You should ask her how helpful she is around the house! 😁”

“Great communication. Thank you for putting my girl number one and the pics and communication while I was gone. I felt like my dog was in the best hands and I was able to relax knowing my dog was cared for.”

“We could not have had a better sitter than Kelsea! It was very clear right at the get-go at our meet-and-greet that she was exceedingly competent at dog care thanks to her extensive history in dog rescue. She understood and followed all our instructions/requests with ease, such as with their diet since they needed to avoid gaining weight. She then went the extra mile by being extremely attentive to their eating habits, asking permission to alter meals so that they were eating better, which we really appreciated! Her attention to detail was impeccable. She also introduced new toys/treats for mental stimulation without causing them to gain weight (: Finally, she showed through plenty of pictures and updates how much love and attention the animals were getting! They looked so calm and happy when I returned home. If you want peace of mind that your animals are in the hands of someone who will love on them, Kelsea is your girl! Than you, Kelsea!”

“We are grateful to have found Erica! We really needed in home care after a bad experience taking our dog elsewhere. Erica arrived on time and communicated with us throughout her stay (loved getting photo updates)! Our house was well cared for and the dogs were happy and healthy upon our return. Erica left our home clean and even vacuumed! We already have future stays booked. Thank you, Erica!”


About: I've been taking care of pets since I could toddle around; Cats, dogs, birds, you name it. I am well-versed in feeding, grooming, cleaning up after, and comforting animals, and am keen to follow instructions. However, I can still adapt to the situation if needed! I love animals and I'm happy to help keep your pet pawsitively safe! With being a fresh graduate waiting for college to start up I have nothing but free time. With my own living situation I'm extremely flexible to fit into whatever schedule is needed! The closer you are to me the better with my limited transportation options, but I'll find a way to get to your pet if you need me! With instructions on what to do and where to find the necessary tools and resources I will have no problem keeping your pet happy and comfortable. I will work hard to keep your space as clean or cleaner than when you left it, and I will work around your pet's comfort zone, not mine.
“We are very happy with house and pet sitting done by Hanna. She kept us well informed and helped make it easy to enjoy our time away from home knowing our home and pet were well cared for.”

About: Hi, my name is Siobhan (Shh-Von) I started recently caring for animals in a professional setting this year, but have had/cared for animals my whole life. Ask me for references, and I’d be happy to give them to you. I have experience for caring for all sizes and ages of dogs, cats, bunnies, small birds, and some experience with horses. I do work full time. I can check on your fur baby's after work in the evenings around 8pm, but I am also completely free Friday's and Saturday's! I have reliable transportation. I can come to you and your fur child when you need a check in, potty break, food, water, a walk, or overnight stay on Thursday nights or Friday nights.
About: Although I am new to rover, I am an experienced lifelong pet owner and excited to offer my services as a dog sitter. Your dog will not only receive care but also love and affection. My playful approach allows me to connect with dogs on a deeper level creating trust and ensuring they feel secure and loved while you are away. Since I am retired, I can structure my day around your pets existing schedule. Providing regular bathroom breaks, daily walks and playful time is essential. I want your pet to feel happy, comfortable and keep to their usual routine. I'll keep you up to date with photos and quick notes to ensure your peace of mind. I follow the instructions you provide so your furry friend stays in routine and is comfortable. I'm mindful of potty breaks and each dogs personality and energy level so I can adjust our activities to best suit their needs. I have a very large completely fenced yard to play in and am happy to come to your home if that is where your pet happiest.
About: I’ve always been the first to offer help when it comes to my family and friends dogs, although I’ve never owned my own because of my living circumstances I’ve always been extremely passionate about dogs and their behavior and I know quite a bit about them, including details about some breeds, mainly medium to large ones. I’ve owned guinea pigs now for over 7 years, my first guinea pig passed away after almost 7 years and I now have 3. Animals are a huge part of my life and I strive to treat every and anyone’s pets like they’re my own. My schedule is always open as of now, I have more than enough free time to ensure your furry friend is well taken care of. I will do my best to give your dogs my absolute full efforts to make sure they are happy and content. I have a lot of energy, so playing with dogs is never a problem. I can take them outside as much as needed
About: My experience involves pet sitting and house sitting for 5 households, totaling about 10 cats and dogs. My sister has several years of vet tech experience and has given me some tips along the way. I have practice with giving pets medications and catering to their special dietary needs. Each and every pet I’ve had the privilege of spending time with has a special place in my heart. I would be grateful to care for your wonderful pets before returning to the University of Oregon in the Fall. I’m in need of work this summer before returning to my psychology degree studies and volunteer research lab assistant position. I have trips planned this summer and otherwise my routine is very flexible! I always try to meet pets’ usual routines! I am used to cleaning litter twice daily, feeding 2-3 times daily, scooping poop, cleaning and filling water dishes/fountains, cleaning up pet accidents, and of course, giving my love and attention and sending pictures to owners.
“Michelle was a great pal to my senior dogs. I know they love her because I can't even get them to sleep all night in the bed with me, and of course she was able to! Michelle was responsive and sent me lots of great pics. My dogs were not stressed when I returned as they would normally be in a boarding situation, so I am thankful for that. Michelle gave me updates every day and I trust her knowledge and experience with animals. Michelle has a big heart and I would choose her over and over again. We love her!”
About: Grew up taking care of a variety of pets (dogs, cats, and more) for family and friends. Successfully trained each one to read and write ;) Currently working from home with loads of flexibility to schedule time for pups. I love to take dogs on walks, runs, or hikes throughout the day. I try to match the energy of any fury friend. My love and appreciation for animals and pets has really grown through life experiences. Thinking of them first is a fine habit to have. Proper planning and anticipation goes a long way. I got incredibly lucky with my current dog, Dos, who is so friendly and loves new friends to play and hike with.
“Danielle does a really great job with taking care of our lil girl Willow. Since our girl is very little, she has a small bladder and requires more diligent care to ensure she gets her potty breaks promptly! Danielle also provides such a positive attitude and even read our packet of info for Willow’s care and became familiar with Willow’s routine. We appreciated that she provided pictures and updates of Willow while she is taking care of her and the pictures are almost always of her playing with our lil girl! Can’t say enough about how much we appreciate Danielle, thanks!!”

“Kenz was amazing!!! Our little puppy had just got fixed and we needed to go out of town for a wedding, which made us very nervous. Kenz was a 10/10 with Archie and giving us a peace of mind. She is bubbly and hilarious and Archie can’t wait to play with her again!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Laurelwood
Chloe has been watching our pups for YEARS now and we love her so much! She keeps the dogs fed and walked and sends so many pictures of our babies! Every time we come home the house is clean and organized like she was never here! Our dogs love her so much and we wouldn't want anyone else watching them! She'd be the best for any pet!

Our 3 dogs were so happily cared for by Chloe they hardly noticed when we came home! And despite the three days of rain and mud, all three (doodles) were clean, dry, and as beautiful as when we left. Our house was also well cared for. We recommend Chloe and so do our pups!

FAQs for House Sitting - Laurelwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 4,455 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laurelwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Laurelwood walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Laurelwood maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Laurelwood 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
