“Elena is absolutely amazing. Our pets are so comfortable with her. She took excellent care of them and our home while we are away. She will be our go-to for all of our pet sitting needs. She also sent lots of pictures, videos and messages to let us know everything was okay. She’s the best!”
“Allea did a wonderful job watching our cat, dog, hamster, and frogs! She provided photo updates/check-ins and left our home the same way we left it. I especially appreciated the time she spent with our dog, Teddy. It was clear she made sure to give our anxious guy company as he was stress free when we came home. We hope to have Allea over again in the future!”
“Tiffany is a gem!!! She loved and cared for our kiddos like they were her own. All of the dogs and even the cat (who htes everyone) fell in love with her. I was able to vacation without worry and I am so happy we found Tiffany!!!”
“Danielle was everything we hoped for and more, ensuring our cat was visited daily (even on Christmas Day). She sent darling videos and photos and he was obviously given a ton of love. We feel such relief knowing she will be part of our travel plans when we need a cat sitter.”
“Gabrielle was wonderful while my husband and I were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and incredibly patient with our cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with guests. She was also very understanding of our dog Teddy’s anxiety and took great care of him, even when he had a few anxious accidents. Our home was exactly as we left it, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would be happy to have her watch our pets again!”
“Link had another great stay with Louis! Louis kept us updated each day so my partner and I could focus on what was at hand on our respective trips. Louis was even able to navigate a potentially negative situation with an off leash dog in our neighborhood and advocated for our pup, which was so relieving. We will 100% book Louis again and appreciate what a great job is always done when watching our pup ❤️ Thank you Louis! 😊”
“Michelle was fantastic and I will absolutely be rebooking! My animals loved them and I was kept in the loop with pictures and updates throughout my leave! Very kind and detail oriented and a fantastic communicator!”
“Elizabeth looked after Pepper, our Boston terrier for 25 days - not a small amount of time - and the longest period we'd been apart. Elizabeth was great - we got regular photo's and updates. Pepper was happy and in great shape when we came home and the house was immaculate. Elizabeth was lovely, and really took care of Pepper and we're very thankful for her looking after Pepper on quite short notice for so long over the holiday period. Will definitely be looking to Elizabeth as our go-to siter in future. Thank you!!”
“Grace was respectful and took great care of our home and pets. Even our young puppy she worked with to keep up the potty training g we’ve been working on. Would hire her anytime.”
“Ebony was such a trooper when she stayed with our pup while we were getting married. Everything that could have gone wrong did, including washing machine floods, huge storms and power outages. We can home to a clean house and happy doggy. We are so grateful that Obi was well taken care of and Ebony seemed un-phased by all the craziness going on. She was easy to get in touch with and did a great job keeping us updated. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks again Ebony!”
“Alicia was great with our silly crazy pup. She recognized that he is definitley our fur baby and took care of him just the same. She was GREAT with wanting to understand his day to day and giving great updates while we were out of town. We could tell when we came home, based on his behavior, and no torn up toys that she was very attentive to him while she was here. Thank you again Alicia!”
About: Suz and Brian have both been lifelong pet parents. Suz worked for a pet hospital for years and almost all of our pets over the last 20 years have been special needs rescue babies.(diabetic, blind, deaf, liver shunt, dementia, cancer, etc) This means we are well versed in special needs care for your special needs kiddos. Pills, SubQ injections, SubQ fluids, bandage changes, glucose testing, Suz works remotely from home, available to your pet as needed through the day for loves, medicine, etc. Brian currently works out of the home but will be retiring soon and will then be 100% dedicated to caring for the pets of our clients! We are available for meet and greet, home checks, and drop off/pick up almost any time day or night and will work with you to schedule what is best for you and your pet(s). Ensuring you are comfortable with who is caring for your pet(s) is second only to your pet(s) safety and well being in our care! Cat boarding: since we have a cat of our own and we know other cats may not be ooen to meeting her (she is ok with others.. mostly ignores them) we have a dedicated cat boarding room where she cannot go near them. Our yard has no grass (rock and astroturf) so no nasty ticks riding our coattails into the home to come in contact with your kitty. Brian is available for drop in care or overnight boarding in your home for dogs and/or cats. This is what we prefer for our own pets when we are away, maintaining their routines etc as best as possible, so want to be sure you have this option too! All of our personal pets are fully vaccinated and receive regular flea treatment.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and my grandma used to train guide dogs for the blind so I have a lot of experience with dogs. I am a student at WOU and I work part time so I have plenty of time to hang out, walk and play with your dog or cat. I don’t have any pets of my own but I love taking dogs on walks or running around and playing with them in the fields around my apartment.
About: I have a lot of love for animals. I am interested in dog walking or taking care of dogs/cats when you just need a little vacation to yourself or a busy day ahead! I have two years of experience with dog sitting. I have taken dogs on walks, stayed over night at the owner's home, fed them, play with them, and clean up after them when they have accidents. I have also taken dogs to vet appointments. I am not afraid of any type of dogs. They have this effect on me that makes me fall in love with them or feel better when I'm feeling down. I’m currently off of my main job as a special needs aide at a middle school as it is summer time! I have a lot of free time right now. I always want pets to feel safe and secure when they’re with me. I like using a soft voice with dogs, unless told to be more stern by the owners. I have experience with dogs that have been abused and are more timid, I usually sit on the floor with them until they trust me enough to come up to me.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 13. Whether it was my own while my parents were gone or friends and neighbors as I got older. I have cared for both really active dogs that need to run all the time and older slower pets that need a lot of attention to details. I am currently a student at Western Oregon University enjoying my summer break back home. So I am available any time as I can create my own schedule. I can’t keep pets here but I am willing and able to do anything needed whether it is crating or making sure they are properly leashed if need be. I can also just watch as they run around!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rogue River
Claire was an incredibly wonderful dog (and house) sitter. Our dog can be rather nervous and Claire has a calm and caring demeanor. She took thorough notes on his feeding, personality and routine-- and took great care of all of his needs. Claire was a wonderful communicator with scheduling and also while we were away. The house was clean, organized and he was very happy upon our return.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rogue River
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rogue River on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 256 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rogue River. 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 Rogue River 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 Rogue River 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 Rogue River 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rogue River. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
