“Marcia took great care of your pups while we were away and we came home to a clean house and thoughtful welcome card when we got home! Thankful we found Marcia and will definitely call to sit again!”
“Kendra was fantastic! She is a great communicator with lots of updates and pictures. ♥️ She walked the dogs often and knew how to handle our dog that barks at others on a leash! Thank you for taking great care of the crew!”
“Travis did a great job with our two dogs and cat! He was very attentive and caring to our animals, which we greatly appreciated. He sent us pictures and kept in touch with us daily too, which we asked for and loved. He was also very responsible at our home and left it in the same condition in which he found it. Highly recommend and will hire him again.”
“Lauren was great! I felt very comfortable leaving our kitty in her care and she got the attention and meds she needed while we were away. We'd love to have Lauren back!”
“Ann was so great! Haze LOVES her. She accommodated to Hazel’s separation anxiety and other quirks so well and sent plenty of updates and pictures. My flight was delayed and Ann was able to stay an extra night, we really appreciate her flexibility!”
“Ellen is great with cats. My senior kitty absolutely adored her and she was attentive to his special needs and paid attention to little details during her stay. She gave me daily updates and photos and I was able to fully relax and enjoy vacation because I knew Ellen was taking good care of my cat. I highly recommend her!”
“Samantha is always very communicative about how Bella is doing and shows genuine interest in her well being. She applied her medication while watching her. It’s clear she loves animals because I always come home to a happy dog.”
“We are very pleased with Steph and her long weekend stay with our pup. We received timely updates and lots of photos! She handled eye drops for our dog that she needs daily, and left our house is pristine condition. Our dog was happy and well cared for while we were gone. We will most definitely use Steph again in the future!”
“She was very sweet always sending pictures of our fur babies. She kept them active and loved so they wouldn't worry about where we were. We recommend her highly and will be our go to in the future!!!”
“Jacob is exactly who you want watching your animals. I have four dogs and two cats, which is a lot to hand off to anyone, and he handled the whole crew like a pro. Communication was on point the entire time, he sent pictures without me having to ask, and he was flexible when things shifted on my end. Every single one of my fur babies was happy and settled when I got home, which is honestly the best review I can give. I’d book him again in a heartbeat.”
“Emily was great! Very responsive, sent a lot of pictures, and made sure our 2 boys were well cared for. Emily stayed in my home for several nights and everything went well 😁 Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a house sitter or a drop in option.”
“Nia and Lauren were so wonderful to our pups!!! It was great to have such peace of mind during our trip knowing these two were caring for our dogs. We’ll definitely be rebooking in the future!”
About: I've taken care of people's pets for over 8 years. I typically do overnights on weekends, but I have experience with multi-week stays and could possibly accomodate for that depending on location! I'm a runner and a hiker and I usually like to take dogs on different adventures whether it's a run on a bike path or on the trails! I have experience with senior dogs and cats as well as younger, more lively pets! I am a full-time graduate student, so I am on campus in the mornings-afternoon. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets whether that's taking them for a walk mid-day, or providing care overnight. I also do housework at homes when asked such as taking care of plants, watering gardens, vacuuming and making sure you return to a spotless house! I am a full time graduate student so I am on campus from about 8am-2pm (at the latest). I do have some flexibility to stop by mid day to check in with your pet(s) as well. I work some weekends for maximum 3.5 hours, so I can plan to be home almost full time on weekends if needed. I am available for mid day walks on some days (Wednesday-Sunday) as well! I easily adapt to the home structure of the people I pet sit for. With clear instructions I can maintain your home routine for your pet(s) to keep consistency in your lives and pets lives!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oregon
Caleigh is amazing. She is great with our very temperamental cat. She washed the bedding and towels she used while staying at our house, and did the dishes. We came back to an immaculate house. And she even went above and beyond to FedEx me my passport when I lost my wallet while on vacation! I won't use anyone else.
Jennifer stayed with our dog and two cats for a few hours while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with, asked important questions about what our animals needed, was timely, and flexible with our changing schedules. Our animals were comfortable in her presence, and didn't seem to miss us at all when we got home. We would definitely recommend Jennifer as a pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Oregon is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $75 per night. 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 829 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Oregon. 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 Oregon 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 Oregon 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 Oregon 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oregon. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
