“Monica was wonderful with our pups. She showed them tons of attentions and play time and gave us daily updates and pictures. It gave us such peace of mind to know they were being so well taken care of.”
“Our 3 dogs took to Tali like family! He stayed in our home for a month while we were overseas. Not only did he take excellent care of our dogs, but he watered our plants, gave the dogs their medications, scooped poop, and coordinated with our cleaner and lawn care team. We will definitely have Tali care for our dogs again. We highly recommend him! Thank you, Tali!”
“Jaylee was so great! This was my first time leaving my two pups and she made it so much less stressful! Jaylee cared for my pups like they were her own. She sent pictures and checked in with me multiple times a day. She really out my mind at ease!!”
About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. I treat every animal as if it was my own. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. Your dog will get all the love and cuddles while you’re away and be in great hands! I also have two young children that will love and play with them as well! They will be able to hangout and sleep with me or on a dog bed! 😊 I cannot wait to meet and love on your animal! 🐕 🐈
About: I have been caring for animals ever since I was little. As a child I would gush over animal fact books and spent my days watching animal planet! I have a true love for animals of all kind and spent many years caring for them. Not only did I have my fair share of a large variety of pets myself but I have cared for them in professional settings. I have worked in vet care and currently for PetSmart as well as working towards getting my herpetology license! I plan on also getting some training at my store to begin dog training! I hope I interest you and your pet and I promise to bring along treats with me to meet your special loved one! Be it fluffy,spiny, or feathery! My weekends are free for house sitting and weekdays for watching/walking in the mornings while you may be at work. I currently still live at home so other than small animals I am unable to offer boarding. As for walking and house sitting, I am completely drug free as well as smoke/alcohol free. I will happily be able to bring by my own food/snacks/drinks and possibly pet treats. I will clean after myself and never make a mess in your home. I follow instructions well. I am currently a College Student interested in pet care between classes to help pay for some of my college expenses. I work long shifts on the afternoon weekends, but in school days, the noon hours is typically my busiest part of the day. I’ve been trained at Petco in safe-handling practices for both dogs and cats, and I also have experience working in the veterinary field as a Veterinary Assistant. Animal care is something I genuinely love, and I’ve always been fascinated by animal behavior, body language, cognition, and the little ways animals communicate with us. When a pet stays with me, I want them to feel like they’re staying with someone who actually gets animals. I pay close attention to their personality, routines, body language, and comfort level rather than treating every pet the same. Some animals want to play constantly, some need time to warm up, and some are perfectly happy doing their own thing while I quietly keep an eye on them. I’m happy to meet them where they are. I also have experience with special-needs animals, which is something I genuinely adore. I’m comfortable adapting care around mobility limitations, anxiety, unusual behaviors, or extra supervision, and I have a lot of patience for animals who need a little more understanding. My own special-needs cat, Rue, is my first special-needs baby of my own, and caring for her has made me even more passionate about learning how to make an animal’s environment work for them. I love giving pets enrichment, playtime, affection, and opportunities to explore, but I also pay attention to the quieter things: changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, behavior, or anything else that seems different from their normal. Animals can’t tell us when something feels wrong, so I believe one of the most important parts of pet care is simply paying attention. Basically, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, understood, and spoiled in all the appropriate ways while they’re with me!

About: I’ve had 2 kitties and had 1 dog for 10 years and have cared for other people’s pets all around the neighborhood growing up! I’m highly patient, gentle, and love all. I’m so open to checking in and taking them on walks, spending time with them, or overnight stays if needed! I’m a college student at UMHB and have a part time job. I can fit pet care into my days and any time on the weekends! While caring for your dog in your home, I'll ensure they’re at their best comfort, feed them on schedule, exercise them, and provide companionship. I’m patient and more than willing to help the dogs out on any training needed!
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have cared for many of my own over the years. I understand pets are family, and I’m committed to giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and am always excited to meet new furry friends! I’m a college student with three online classes this fall, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around pet care and am available as early as needed. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’ll always treat your pets like family—because that’s what they are. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and calm environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. My own pets mean the world to me, and I’ll give yours the same respect, attention, and affection.
“Darren is a thoughtful care giver for my fur babies. After months of not walking them, he got them back into a routine to help myself and my dogs on the road to wellness. Our home was cared for and has been super attentive to our needs. All instructions were followed and felt confident about Darren's care while we were on holiday. I highly recommend his services!”

About: For the past 14 years, caring for dogs has been more than just a responsibility — it’s been a true passion of mine. From raising and loving my own dog to caring for others as if they were part of my family, I’ve gained hands-on experience in providing patient, attentive, and compassionate care. I’m comfortable with daily walks to keep them active and happy, bath time to keep them clean and fresh, and administering medications when needed. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and special needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, feeding schedules, or extra care for senior dogs, I treat every pup like my own — with kindness, responsibility, and lots of belly rubs. I’m a business owner so my time is flexible.

“Kaylin is the quintessential pet and house sitter! She was excellent. Her communication was superb (pics, videos and updates several times a day). She looked after my home incredibly well, and my dog Bindi liked her straight away! She went above and beyond with regards to house sitting and pet sitting, which I appreciated. I have already booked her again, and will do so again in the future!”
“Lillian (Ruthie) took such loving care of my li'l girl Sadie! This was my first time leaving her since a cross country move, and Ruthie helped keep Sadie's routine consistent while giving her a quiet, comfortable environment. She was also wonderfully communicative, trustworthy, and caring. Thank you, Ruthie, and we look forward to having you out again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 396 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pendleton. 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 Pendleton 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 Pendleton 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 Pendleton 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 Pendleton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
