About: ​I grew up in a house full of animals, so loving and caring for pets is second nature to me! Our household currently includes two cats (Walter and Wanda). When your pet stays with us, they become part of the family—expect plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and pampered care! Being a Stay at home mom, I have flexibility that allows me to do things like hiking trails, running at the lake, and house/pet sit for my friends and family. Growing up with both indoor and outdoor animals has helped me adapt to different pets behaviors and still create a trusting environment so they feel safe.

About: I've had multiple pets all my life and strive to make their day as better as their last. I have a true strong passion for animals. I will be providing dog walking, house sitting and drop ins for dogs and cats. I have lots of experience with both, from taking care of my own pets to watching others in the past. I work, but am very flexible with my hours and open to most days and times. I'm outgoing so would be able to play and be active with pets that need to burn energy and like to have fun. I'm open to taking pets to a park or on trails to go on adventures. I'm very responsible and respectful. I'd treat every furbaby like they were one of my own. I'm comfortable with multiple pets all shapes and sizes. I'm great at following instructions if they needed certain feeding details and or also medication. I'm excited and hoping to work with alot of wonderful people and their animals. It's everyday. I feel better about myself knowing I've been able to help others and their pets have the best day that's possible for them. I treat my pets like my children. I'm a upstanding respectful young man who would be professional and caring the entire interaction with peoples home and their pets.

About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ve personally raised and cared for animals of all ages, from rambunctious puppies and curious kittens to calm and loving senior pets and I’ve seen several of my own pets through their full life spans. This has given me deep experience in providing age-appropriate care, whether that means extra playtime and training for younger pets or gentle attention and medication support for seniors. I’m comfortable and experienced with most dog and cat breeds, from small lap dogs to large, energetic pups, and from independent cats to cuddly companions. I know that every animal has a unique personality and needs, and I take pride in getting to know each one individually to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I work from home full time. That means your pet will never be left alone for long periods and will get consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a calm environment, lots of affection, structured routine, or just someone to hang out with, I’m here to provide that kind of care in a homey, stress-free setting. I genuinely treat every animal I care for like family, and that means tons of love, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. Since I work from home full-time, my schedule is very flexible, and I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent care and companionship. I build my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or cuddle breaks in between work tasks. I love having animals around; they bring joy, routine, and energy to my day. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time, fresh air, and play. My home is pet-friendly and full of love my kids adore animals and enjoy helping care for them, offering even more companionship for your pet while they’re here. We also have a sweet 3-year-old dog named Storm, who’s been around both dogs and cats her whole life. She’s laid-back, friendly, and used to having furry friends around. Because I don’t have to commute or leave the house for long periods, I’m able to give pets my full attention and adjust to their individual needs, including potty breaks, medications, or just some quiet time if they’re more relaxed. On weekends, I enjoy taking dogs on longer walks or play sessions in the yard or at nearby pet-friendly parks (with your permission, of course). Caring for pets isn’t just something I squeeze into my schedule, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. When pets stay in my home, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they would at home. I start by learning about their routine, habits, and preferences so I can maintain consistency with feeding, potty breaks, sleep, and play. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to run in the yard or prefers to nap in a quiet corner, I adjust my care to meet their individual needs. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. Inside, pets have free roam of the main living areas, unless you prefer otherwise. I offer plenty of one-on-one attention, including playtime, snuggles, and positive reinforcement. For pets that need a crate, I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep their routine consistent. I work from home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I also have a friendly dog named Storm who’s used to being around both dogs and cats. Cleanliness, safety, and affection are my top priorities. I make sure pets always have access to clean water, follow any dietary or medical needs, and create a calm, welcoming environment where they can feel right at home.

About: I've lived with dogs my entire life and have never met a dog I can't connect with. I love dogs of all sizes and behaviors; I have experience counseling groups of kids at summer camp, so I have no trouble managing dogs in a group or with rowdy tendencies. I truly love all dogs and would love to meet yours! I am currently working part-time in St. Louis on the weekends, so I am available weekdays at any time. I have access to a car and the ability to be flexible with timing and distance as well, just contact me! I can work with any number and any kind of dog! I grew up with a couple dogs of different sizes and I currently live with 2 little ones, so I am comfortable handling any canine situation! This means I am more than happy to take on any responsibility/task requested, such as administering medication, engaging in frequent or constant activity, intently monitoring an animal for an extended period of time, etc. beyond, of course, walking & relieving your best friend(s)! I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.

About: Hi there! I’m Camille, a dedicated and reliable pet caregiver with years of experience handling dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I pride myself on being deeply patient and attentive, ensuring that every animal under my care receives plenty of love, exercise, and safety-focused attention. Whether it’s high-energy walks or gentle, loving care for senior pets, I treat every pet like my own. I am fully comfortable navigating different leash manners and providing consistent, positive reinforcement. I currently work Thursday-Sunday at my full time job. I have evening availability on Saturdays and Sundays after 4pm. Otherwise, I am fully available Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. Just give me a heads up and I can make it happen! Your pet becomes my priority. I understand that your pets are family, and my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while you are away. I specialize in following strict routines, including specific feeding schedules, playtime, and administering medication. I am happy to provide daily photo updates so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pendleton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pendleton is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $18 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 540 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pendleton. 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 Pendleton. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
