“Erin is excellent at taking care of cats. Every time she comes to my house, my cat eagerly waits for her, hoping to be petted, and even sits on her lap. She left me detailed and heartfelt message about how my cats were doing that day . I completely trust her to look after my cats.”

“Colin was phenomenal at taking care of our pup! He left detailed notes that gave us great updates and peace of mind that our dog was well cared for. Colin took our dog out for a walk, even when not necessary, to give her extra attention and stimulation. We came back to one happy dog and safe home!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and farm animals since I was 10! I love all animals, especially dogs! I'm looking to fill my time by taking the best care of your fur babies. I drive an EV so I am an eco-friendly choice! I'm currently between jobs and am filling my time with something I love-caring for dogs! Available for drop ins and walks around the Milwaukie area. I have a small yard and deck that are fenced off. The house is a spacious ranch with no stairs once you are on the main floor.

“ChristyLynn was able to accommodate a last minute drop in request. She was great with the dogs, they sense right away if someone is a dog person and she definitely is. She asked if it was ok for her girls to come for an evening visit and the dogs loved that. Great communication and appreciated the pics. Will definitely use her again.”

“Anna was absolutely wonderful with Toby! She came twice a day while we were away, fed him his wet food, and stayed for the full 30 minutes to keep him company. Toby meowed, and screamed at Anna pretty much the entire time. I can only assume he had many important things to tell her about the state of the household while we were gone. Despite Toby's extensive vocal complaints, Anna was incredibly patient, sweet, and attentive with him. Knowing she was spending actual time with him rather than just giving him food gave us so much peace of mind. Anna was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about Toby. We came home to a happy, well cared for and still very opinionated cat. I would absolutely book Anna again and highly recommend her!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 35 years, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I've shared my life with beloved pets, cared for neighborhood animal friends, and welcomed animals into my home. After losing our family dog a couple of years ago, I've found so much joy in sharing that love with other animals. Every animal has its own personality, quirks, and needs, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each one. I'm also a registered nurse with 20 years of experience, which has made me patient, observant, compassionate, and attentive to the little details. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for a beloved family member. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, quiet companionship, or a little extra reassurance, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I care for animals the way I would want someone to care for my own. I work from home most days, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Your pet won't be spending long stretches feeling lonely! My husband of 26 years is also a huge animal lover, so there's no shortage of love, cuddles, and attention in our home. Caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy, and we love making them part of our daily lives. Our home is a loving, relaxed environment with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable. My husband and I are both lifelong animal lovers, and your furry family member will receive double the cuddles and attention! I'm also happy to care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable. For these visits, my husband would accompany me, with your permission, so your pets can enjoy some extra love and companionship. We respect your home, your pet's routines, and any special instructions you provide. With my 20 years of nursing experience, I bring an extra level of patience, attentiveness, and responsibility to caring for animals. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my priority.

“Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him”

She shared photos and updates from every visit and Leonard enjoyed the extra attention. Bridgitte even handled some household needs while we were away without even being asked. We're so grateful and hope to work with her again! Thank you Bridgitte!”

About: I've worked in the pet care industry for 8 years now. I have experience working in a vet hospital and in grooming salons. I know how to read cat and dog body language and have more hands on experience with pets than your typical sitter. I can provide baths and nail trims for both dogs and cats on request. I recently moved to the greater Portland area so my schedule is wide open at the moment. Sunday - Saturday just let me know what you need. I can keep your dog or cat up to date on their training, work with any feeding or exercise schedule they have and give them lots of love and cuddles.

About: Hello! I provide pet sitting, walking, and drop in’s! I would love to take care of your fur baby! I have been an animal lover since day one. I am currently going to school to be a Veterinarian so you can be confident that your pet will be well cared for and happy when you see them! While I house sit you can be assured that your house will look better than when you left it and your pet well taken care of. I provide at least two walks daily to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy! I work full time Monday-Friday 7am-2pm. When house sitting I will only be gone those hours and the rest of the day/night I will be looking after the pet. This schedule has worked well thus far, and hope it continues😁 I give unlimited attention through out the day. I love getting outside and going on long walks, regardless of the weather. I have my own dogs and I know how much responsibility you need to have to care for any animal.

About: For 5 years I volunteered almost every weekend at an animal rescue. Handling different pets (mainly cats and dogs of all ages and health/physical disabilities), administering medicine, exercising them, feeding & cleaning. Beyond that I have always been the go to pet sitter for my friends, family and neighbors! In my lifetime, I myself had many different pets; guinea pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, horses, and fish. Growing up my family has always been the type to adopt rescues. Which included having to rehabilitate them, physically and emotionally. It’s extremely important to me to have a good mutual relationship with your pet and care for them as I have/would my own. I am currently unemployed! Therefore, my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available most days and times of the week(end). Let’s chat and see what works for us both! Safety and comfortability is a top priority for me! I require a Meet Up before booking to ensure we are a good fit for each other. I love to keep you updated through texts/photos (depending on your personal desires). In case of an emergency, I have a vehicle and am knowledgeable about the ER vets in Portland.

“Bonnie is fantastic! She understood the needs of our dog, kept a firm, calm, and consistent presence allowing our super anxious dog to feel comforted while we were away. It was the first time we could actually leave our dog with someone and enjoy our vacation. We had peace of mind that Maka was in great hands with Bonnie. The Rover cards also helped us to know how our pup was behaving as time went on. Thank you so much, Bonnie!”

Sydney has been wonderful since my original reach-out. Promptly responsive, polite, and easy to work with. She has come over three times now to meet my anxious/nervous little fella and has been great with him! She is thoughtful and patient with him being a bit nervous, follows my guidance for success with my pups, and has helped to ease my anxieties with text check-ins and pictures. Because of her thoughtful interactions, I'm confident that my fella will be comfortable with her being part of his circle of trust. I'm so grateful for Sydney!

Myka is wonderful with my hyper-reactive cane corso! She comes in, gets Athena hooked up to the leash right away, and takes her for a good walk. Myka has gone above and beyond with keeping me updated and informed of any issues or conditions that need addressed. Athena is very comfortable around Myka, which is quite rare for Athena. Myka comes in with a quiet confidence and just takes charge of things for Athena. I dont know what I'd do without Myka!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Oatfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oatfield is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 6,579 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oatfield. 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.

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 with handling special pet needs in Oatfield. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
