“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.”
“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.”
“Veronica did a great jobs with my pups this week. Providing them with both walks and drop ins during a busy work week. She was communicative and gave great updates and could tell she genuinely cared about them and their time together. Will hire again!”
“I am so incredibly grateful for Alicia. I had an unexpected emergency and had to rush to the hospital, she was able to step in and take care of my dog on such short notice. During an already stressful situation, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in caring hands. What touched me even more is her thoughtfulness, compassion, and willingness to help when I really needed it meant more than I can say. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog. ❤️”
“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.”
“Stephanie was fantastic. She went above and beyond. She took great care of my dogs. And she did the full walks in the rainstorms. I would definitely recommend and hire her again.”
“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 grown up with both cats and dogs in the house, even one gerbil! Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals since the age of 12, and I have experience administering medication and feel comfortable with any extra care your pet may require. I am a freelancer and my last contract ended recently. I am appreciating this downtime, which means I have an open schedule to provide care throughout the day for your pets. I would like to meet your pet in their own environment to keep continuity, and am happy to set up a check-in schedule with you for updates about your pet’s day and routine, including pictures if requested.
“What a lovely young woman. Confident, kind, loving toward my animals. I Will definitely have Parrish take care of them again. They loved her and this was such a load off my mind!”
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.
“Sarah was awesome since day one. Being a first time Rover client, she was patient and very helpful to us. She took such extra care of our pup, that it was a stress free vacation for us. We will definitely use her again for our next vacation in future.”

With me, your pet will get: • Consistent, reliable visits you can count on • Lots of attention, affection, and patience • Walks and playtime based on their energy level • Calm, low-stress care in their own home I’m especially attentive to details and will follow your instructions closely — whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines. ⸻ 👨👩👧👦 About Me & Availability Pet sitting is my primary source of income, so I’m available most days and times for walks, drop-ins, and in-home care.

You won’t have to worry about missed visits or last-minute cancellations. ⸻ ❤️ What Sets Me Apart • Experienced with many types of animals • Reliable and consistent (this is huge — I show up when I say I will) • Great with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets • Strong attention to detail and routines • Regular updates with photos so you feel connected ⸻ 📝 What I’d Love to Know To give your pet the best care possible, please share: • Their daily routine • Feeding instructions or medications • Personality and behavior (shy, energetic, etc.) • How they do with new people ⸻ 🌟 My Goal My goal is simple: To make your time away stress-free — for both you and your pet. At this time pet sitting is my only source of income. I am available most days/times for pet care. I do have 3 young children as well two of which I drive to and from school and sports. I have a fenced yard and plenty of toys in my home for dogs to play. Even in my fenced yard I do not large dogs outside unattended.
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!
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.
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.

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.
Will has been walking our elderly dog during these cold months and we couldn’t be happier with his service. We love Will! He makes our lives easier by helping us with our dog and paying close attention to his bumps and aches as he ages. Would recommend Will for anyone who loves their dog but also has a million things on their plate and just needs someone reliable!

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 Marylhurst. 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.
