“Wow! Great experience. Henry Took the extra time to take Charlie for a walk… Took pictures for me and gave me an update when he left. The whole experience was very reassuring. Charlie also seemed more at ease when I got home… Having Henry visit with him definitely made a difference. We will absolutely be Booking Henry again.”

About: I have been caring for animals in some capacity for as long as I can remember! Aside from my personal animals, I have provided pet care for friends & family, worked as a veterinary assistant, and am currently a second year veterinary student at the OSU CCVM. One of my beliefs is that each animal has a unique set of needs, both mental & physical, and as such I strive to adjust my approach to meet their individual needs to the best of my ability. I am a Fear Free certified professional. I am currently in school which runs approximately 8am to 4pm with an hour lunch break at noon. I will be able to offer one potty break throughout the day but can spend ample time with them during the evenings. At this time my services can only be offered where the pet resides. I am open to staying overnight, performing a few daily check-ins, or whatever will make the pet the most comfortable in your absence.
“Elly did a great job in a difficult situation. The extremely hot weather made our cat a bit difficult. Elly was right on top of things, sending her concerns about Winnie's ouchy behavior. We communicated frequently to find ways for Elly to make Winnie feel better in the heat. Daily pictures helped me see some of Winnie's issues. All was good due to Elly's good attention to details.”

About: Born and raised a dog lover after having at least one dog in my household for over 30 years. I find so much joy in making sure dogs have the best life because they love us unconditionally. I know how stressful animals can be sometimes while you’re away and that is why I am here to help you take care of your animals and relieve that stress from you. Willing to make extra drop ins or walks if there are issues going on in the home other than our regular scheduled appointments. IE in case of an emergency. I enjoy long walks with the two we have in my household. Or just a casual chill cuddle session. I look forward to meeting your hunnies! I am recently a work from home person so I am free for most of the days minus if I have a meeting or something but again all virtually. I am an active person but also have a fenced in backyard. Whether your animal needs walks, runs, hikes or just a chill session on the couch. I’m here for it :) I do everything for your dog that I would mine.

I am comfortable with caring for multiple pets at a time and have experience caring for newborn kittens with health complications, senior animals, and special needs animals. I will typically build my days around pet care. My only time constraints at the time are two classes this upcoming fall term (starts around September 20th).

I always make an effort to respect the space, communicate clearly and often, and provide care you can trust.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Philomath
Alexandra was awesome. She offered to do a meet and greet even when my booking was rather last minute. She communicated very clearly and most importantly, seemed to really care about the time she spent with my dog during the drop-in visits. It seemed like she went beyond the bare minimum of letting him out/ feeding him and valued playing with him and loving him.

Allyson was such a great help dropping in to spend time with our doggies while we were away! She was very communicative, kind, and attentive. Our dogs seemed to really enjoy playing fetch with her and getting some extra attention and playtime. We really appreciated her help and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Kayla did an amazing job with our senior dog. He had a sensitive stomach due to stress and not eating, and she was so gracious about cleaning up after him. She kept us in the loop the entire time we were on our trip about how Riley was doing. Would highly recommend!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Philomath 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
