“Our pups did well with Claire on their first stay! Claire was very communicative and sent photos too. She was very patient and understanding of letting our girls adjust to a new environment. Claire is very knowledgeable and gave us a few helpful recommendations as well.”
“My pup had such a great time being boarded with Dylan, his partner, and their pup! I received lots of pics which I’m super grateful for. Would absolutely book with Dylan again in the future!”
“Puka looked happy, shiny, and healthy when I returned home from vacation! A big thank you to Amy for sending photos every day of Puka in cozy, comfy places and for brushing her. I trusted Amy and her family to treat Puka like one of their own and would definitely book with them again! 🥰”
“Jonathan is a lifesaver! I really appreciate his flexibility and updates. His calming nature really helped Rocko feel comfortable. I would absolutely book again with Jonathan and Nova :)”
About: I have spent my life as a pet owner and I like to treat everyone's animals the way I would like mine to be treated. I have, at one time or another, owned dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, rabbits, snakes, rats, goats, horses, and chickens and am comfortable caring for many more. I know this site is mostly limited to dog and cat care, but I'm happy to pet sit anything. I am happy to care for pets either in my home or in yours and I'm very flexible regarding my schedule. Every day I care for my own household animals, and I'm more than capable of taking care of plenty more. My animals include 3 dogs of varying sizes, two cats, a parrot, and an aquatic turtle. Though I have plenty of experience with other animals as well. I'm happy to either host animals in my home or venture to pets in their own homes. I believe that my job in caring for a person's pets is to adhere to their wishes for their pets. I want to follow the expectations set for any individual animal. I love to lavish animals with love and affection, but that isn't the right approach for every animal and I need to respect the wishes of their humans within the scope of safety.
“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”
“So happy we chose Teresa to watch our pug. I can tell she genuinely enjoys watching dogs and took great care of our pup. She was very kind, easy to communicate with, gave my dog lots of excersie and love, and sent us updates! Felt like my dog was on her own vacation there. Will definitely book again and recommended to others!”
“10/10 experience- I will for sure board with Joshua again! Great communication with updates and pics. They took care of my golden for six days/nights while I was out of state. This was a great fit for my dog to be able to play and use all of his energy. Highly recommend”
“Valerie took great care of my Perdi. She sent daily pictures of my girl playing with other dogs and just enjoying life. The setup Valerie has is great and I felt very comfortable leaving Perdi there. I will definitely board with her again in the future.”
“I would highly recommend Caleb to everyone! At our meet and greet, he asked a ton of questions about my pup, Atticus, and took notes of his needs and habits. Atticus is a very itchy boy and the fact that he came home without any hotspots is a testament to Caleb's attentiveness to care. Given the opportunity, I would not hestitate to book with Caleb again. He's also a great dog photographer, to say the least!”
About: Hello! My name is Chris, and I would love to be your dog's best friend while you are away :) When I first adopted my dog, Wilson, he was a challenge--very roudy, not house trained, and high energy! With lots of patience, training, and love, he has developed into the most mature and calm pup. My friends routinely comment that he seems like a totally new dog. I believe all he needed was a stable and loving home. As such, I have experience training, administering pills and medicine, and identifying / helping with ailments if they crop up. If your pup has any of these needs, I can help! I can't wait to meet your furry friend! I’m current a graduate student with a very flexible schedule. I can make sure that your pet will never be alone for more than a few hours at a time. I have a sweet 5 year old black lab who will be your fur baby’s best friend. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed, and can take them out for potty as frequently as needed. I live near a large park which is great for walks and nature time for your pup.
“Wilna was the most wonderful dog mom (or grandma, as she called herself!) for our little Charlie that we could have imagined! She sent us tons of sweet pictures and updates on Charlie's fun, and let us know how he was doing throughout every day. He came home happy and relaxed! We couldn't have asked for a better or more caring sitter for Charlie. Thank you so much, Wilna! We definitely recommend Wilna most highly, and we will definitely use her services again!”
About: I am an avid lover of animals and take my treatment of them to heart. I can keep your pup or kitty very happy and very healthy. My last old guy was a diabetic with a thyroid condition for the last 8 years of his life (2 insulin shots a day. 2 thyroid pills a day.) I’m very comfortable with giving medicine or shots to any animal. That includes emergency situations or routine management for the fur babies. My schedule is very flexible right now. I’m available most every day except for special occasions. I have a routine cancellation policy, but I’m pretty chill. I have a big fenced yard with beautiful grass and lots of things to smell. My house is single story with lots of open space for zoomies.
“We left our dog with the Ruthie for four days and we couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver! She was very warm and welcoming we could tell right away that she has a genuine love for dogs. She also understands dog behavior and knows how to connect with them. She sent updates with adorable photos and fun descriptions of the daily activities. When we picked up our dog, he was relaxed and happy. We will definitely be seeking out Ruthie again in the future!”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Great experience. Got plenty of updates with photos which was very much appreciated. Dogs seem to have plenty of space to play and gets lots of love and attention.”
About: Hi, nice to meet you! As a fellow pet parent to a 7 year old German Shepherd mix and an 11 year old cat, I know how much peace of mind it brings to find someone you can truly trust.

Whether you have an energetic puppy or kitten, a sweet senior who needs gentle care, or a three-legged companion with unique needs, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I also have a soft spot for pets who are anxious, timid, or reactive and need a little extra patience. I’m comfortable following detailed routines, administering medications, and giving every pet the time, space, and attention they deserve. My dog occasionally joins me on sits when everyone is comfortable around other dogs, but she absolutely doesn’t have to come along! I always have care arranged for her at home, so I can accommodate whatever setup works best for your pets.

I’d love to meet you and your furry family members and become someone you can count on whenever you need an extra hand ❤️ I’m currently taking a step back from full-time teaching to focus on substitute teaching, tutoring, and pet sitting! This gives me a more flexible schedule, allowing me to plan ahead and make sure your pets get all the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. Whether you have an energetic dog who loves long walks or hikes, a senior pet who needs medication, or a cozy cat who just wants some company, I’ll treat your pets like mine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to be more than just a sitter. I want to be a reliable sitter you can count on, and be your pet’s second best friend! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities.

I’m especially comfortable caring for anxious, timid, or reactive pets and understand the importance of patience, reassurance, and giving them space when they need it. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or mine, I want them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are in good hands!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been dog-sitting since I was around 12 years old, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including puppies and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I love going on walks, playing, giving lots of love, and making sure every dog feels happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special instructions. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat your dog like my own while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way! I’m a full time college student, and have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m happy to plan my day around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I understand the importance of consistency and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to follow special instructions and send photo updates so you know your pet is in good hands!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - River Road
I boarded my 10 year-old black lab with Sabrina and Derrick for 17 days. It was a long stay and they were so great at sending me lots of photos and checking in regularly. They have their own dogs, plus day care drop in dogs so Royal had lots of friends to play with and it was so much better than having a sitter at my house where she would have missed me more.! I’m so grateful I found these two on Rover. This is a full-time job for them, so they are always on site and attentive and very professional. I plan to drop my dog there regularly!
Fantastic experience from start to finish! We received frequent updates, adorable photos, and excellent communication throughout our smaller, three-legged, misfit dog's stay. Knowing how Brad was doing each day made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our time away. Claire took wonderful care of our dog. We highly recommend her and won't hesitate to book with her again. Thank you!
Kelli and Justin and their kids are wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better people to care for Our Stella girl for the weekend. Kelli and Justin was understanding in dealing with Stella’s anxiety about being away from home. They kept us posted and sent pictures on how Stella was doing, which helped us relax. They took Stella on walks and gave lots of love and playtime which I know Stella really enjoyed her stay. Thank you so much.
Best sitter ever, I felt not only confident but happily satisfied that my pup was enjoying herself running around the yard and playing knowing that Destiny was looking after my little pup. She kept me well informed, communicated well and took a bunch of great photos of my girl and even printed some of them on Halloween stickers!! 10/10
Can’t say enough good things about Remington! She was just fantastic, took Fluff for me last minute and then I got delayed picking her up and she found a solution for me. She sent lots of pics and kept me updated. Remington is reliable, responsive and her home felt like a warm and safe place for my little gal to lodge. Thank you Remington! 💗
This is the second time that we used Susie. The first time was just overnight, but this was over a week and she was amazing! She was in constant communication with us and sent photos every day. Bowser was very happy to see us but equally excited to want to stay with Susie! We will continue to use Susie whenever we need someone to puppy sit!
Dez is an amazing pet sitter! I got regular updates about my pup and felt extremely at ease knowing she was well taken care of. All questions were answered promptly and Kibou had a blast on her little vacation wtih Dez. I would absolutely trust Dez to watch any pets any time! :)
The Empress was treated like a princess. She came home wagging, her chalice of love was full. While we quested on behalf of her Empire she was not idle. She now has a level 10 back leg kick. Which enables her to kick a hairbrush out of the air and send it flying across the room. Furthermore she refrained from eating any craft supplies while we were away. Her ancestors would be proud! 5 out of 5 would book Nicole P. and family again.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
99% of sitters in River Road can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their River Road home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your River Road.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in River Road. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
You and your River Road sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
