About: I’m an experienced and responsible student looking to spend time, love, and play with fur babies! I will ensure your pet is happy and well-cared for, giving you a peace of mind. I currently work part time, mostly in the afternoons, and would love to spend time with your pet in the mornings before I go to work! I am available Tuesday-Thursday for the most part, and could possibly be available some other mornings as well. In a client’s home, I prioritize comfort, safety, cleanliness, and most of all no stress for pet or owner. I would strictly adhere to instructions regarding feeding, and exercise routines, as well as anything else needed. I will provide plenty of attention, affection, and care to ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and engaged.
About: I’m a teacher who loves to take care of pets in his spare time. I can walk your dog, play with your dog or cat, take care of your cats needs and can house sit as needed. I am free on Thursdays and Fridays as far as week days go. I also can work on the weekend too. I just need notice so that I can accommodate. I am very good at respecting the space of the owners home and can make sure that things are in good order both during and after pet sitting.
About: Mike and I both grew up with childhood dogs and have experience taking care of both cats and dogs for friends and neighbors. We both have experience with feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, and playing with dog and cats. I am a graduate student with a structured weekly routine, and Michael tag-teams evening and weekend care with me. Because of my flexible campus schedule, I can use your home as my study "home base" during the day. This means your pets get large, dedicated blocks of companionship, routine care, and attention right when they need it most! I am an early riser and can arrive by 7 am for morning mealtime, playtime and potty. I can also provide afternoon and evening check-ins. Typically we will handle dinner feedings, pop back home briefly for our own mealtime and self-care and then check back in for a long block of evening attention and potty break before the end of the day. To ensure safety and trust, we will be communicating with pet owners, following care instructions, making sure your pet is getting proper attention, activity and mental stimulation. Also, sending lots of adorable pictures of your pets so you can see how much fun they are having!
About: I have pet sat for a family with 2 golden retrievers and a cat. I have 4 dogs ranging from age, size, and breed. I prioritize safety and fun when it comes to animals! Pet care is part of my daily routine through feeding, cleaning, and playtime, while keeping them safe and healthy every single day with love and attention always. I feed them, give them fresh water, clean up after them, take them outside, and make sure they are safe, comfortable, happy, healthy, and well cared for.
“Alexis has been super on top of it with her communication! She is reliable and sent me great updates about her time with our puppy. I am careful about who I trust with our puppy and I would hire Alexis any time.”
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs, cats, chinchillas, chickens, hamsters, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. I love all animals, and will happily care for your fur baby/ies and other critters! I currently work part time from home, and have flexibility throughout the week. Aside from school drop off and pick ups on Mondays, I am available most days. I can drop in as often as 3 x per day to feed, walk, and/or play with your animal. I can play fetch in your fenced yard, or take them for a spirited walk or run to get their energy out.
About: Animal lover. Give me details about what your pet needs and I will provide great care. I have 10 years of pet sitting experience. I will walk your dogs and clean up messes. I will feed according to their schedule and most importantly provide them with the love and care I would want as if they are my own. I can do drop in’s to clients nearby and overnight stays to anyone as far as 15 miles away, but for overnight stays I would prefer that my own dog (very friendly) would be able to come too. I communicate very well and will be happy to send photos of your dogs so you can see them while you are away at work or on vacation. Thank you for considering me. I work 3 days per week but am still able to provide love and care to your pets on these days. I only work 3 days per week, so am able to be at home for 4 days to care for your pet. I am a huge animal lover so will make sure your pets get what they need, especially on the days I am working. At this time I am not accepting any boarding requests but thank you for the consideration. I am accepting in home requests for your pets!
“Louise was amazing! My dog loved her and she was always communicating with me and keeping me updated on his status. I would definitely recommend her and would love for her to watch Walter again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and I’m deeply committed to providing the same level of love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, handling leashed walks, and maintaining a calm, safe environment. My priority is making sure your pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve recently moved back to the Portland area to finish school online, so my schedule is wide open to care for your pets! Text me and let me know how I can adjust my schedule to fit your needs! I prioritize following all instructions as their written, from feeding schedules, walks, to adhering to any medical needs your pet may have. I will provide the utmost care and respect for your home and animals to ensure everyone feels at ease.
About: I have experience with house sitting both large and small dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise and care. I also can do plant care as well I currently do doordash and art commissions from home so I have pretty open availability right now! I do have two cats at home so I still need to check in on them as well. I always make sure everything is tidy and that each pet gets equal amount of care. Set daily and weekly routines for them and always check over them to make sure there's nothing abnormal.
About: Returning to Rover and excited to get to know some new furry friends. I’ve had experience taking care of the fur children of a good number of close friends and clients on Rover. They have relied on me for house sitting, dog walking, and drop-ins. My living situation has recently changed to apartment living so unfortunately, I can’t currently board pets at my home. In the interest of complete transparency, I am currently between jobs and working independently through DoorDash. I need to meet weekly finance goals to sustain myself, but I am flexible and will make taking care of your pet a priority. I have professional emergency medical training as an EMT and trauma technician, including CPR, emergency response, and patient care. I am familiar with first aid principles and continue to expand my knowledge of pet-specific care. I was raised with pets, taking care of them growing up. I had 2 dogs, a cat, two hamsters, a gecko, and a box turtle which I cared for independently. As of my current season of life, I am busy but very flexible to make pet care a priority. Unfortunately, I currently cannot board pets at my residence. However, I have vast experience in house sitting. I can do extended stays overnight or just drop-ins as needed, apart from pet care, I am absolutely willing to maintain other needs of your home while you’re away such as watering plants, maintaining or caring for tank/enclosure animals, farm animals or other house needs. I’m highly respectful of your living space and self-sufficient in providing you with peace of mind for your home and animals while you are away.
About: Our first family dog was the sweetest Golden Retriever you could ever meet, and my current doggos are a wonderfully sassy Husky and a Pit Bull who is a bit of a chaos gremlin. I’ve also had the pleasure of owning an energetic Blue Heeler, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m happy to learn and follow the commands, routines, and cues that your dog is familiar with, so they can feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and, of course, treats when they’re allowed! I am a teacher who currently works part time, so I have afternoons free for house visits, potty breaks and a little human interaction. My weekends are open for pet sitting in your home. My pets have their spare human at my house, but I wouldn’t want to neglect them for more than about three or four days. I work in the Hillsboro area and live in the St John’s area, so working in either of those cities would be wonderfully convenient. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’ll follow their usual feeding, medication, exercise, and play schedules as closely as possible. I’m respectful of each family’s space and routines, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pets while you’re away. As a teacher, I also work in a profession that requires a background check, and I understand the importance of responsibility, trust, and safety when caring for others.

Starting mid-June, I will have more availability during the day. I care for pets by following the plan provided by the owner. I provide time for play, exercise, and rest. When in my care, your pet is my top priority!
About: I have been caring for dogs for a long while, starting with my own two pets and extending to neighbors, family, Learning from a parent who professionally walks dogs and trains, has given me a deep understanding of behavior, safety, and proper walking techniques.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Plains
Sarah is the best! This was my first time having someone besides friends or family watch my baby and she totally put me at ease. She is such a kind, sweet soul. She took great care of Caia. She sent me lots of videos and pictures and was available via text or phone throughout the day. She also kept my house tidy and picked up messes Caia made. Caia doesn’t like many people but she warmed right up to Sarah, even wanting to sit on her lap! I highly recommend her and I will be booking with her again.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in North Plains is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 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 October 2026, there are 6,345 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across North Plains. 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.
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 North Plains 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!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
