About: Nothing is more important than your furbaby’s safety and happiness! For dogs, I understand leash control, situational awareness, and the value of structured walks. I’m happy to follow your handling instructions so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I have completed clicker training along with foundation and advanced canine fitness courses. For cats, I know they need gentle, calm, and stress-free care. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and am familiar with cat behavior and body language. I provide reliable drop-in visits that prioritize your cat’s comfort and individual needs. I have a lot of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I read their body language well and know how to help them feel relaxed and at ease in new situations. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available on weekends from 8am–4pm, and weekdays work too with at least one day’s notice. Tell me what times you’re looking for, and I’ll accommodate as much as possible. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting services. Dogs get structured walks with time to sniff and light play. Cats receive interactive play, enrichment, and calm attention based on what they enjoy. I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s comfort level. Feeding is included as part of your pet’s regular routine, and my focus is on keeping pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free.
“Erica was WONDERFUL! She responded promptly to our last minute request for a drop-in visit for our pup, Olive. Erica sent us updates about the visit with photos! We hope to use Erica’s services again in the future. I submit my highest recommendation”
About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.
“Christina is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter and then some! My partner and I were gone for two weeks, and during that time Christina sent many updates and pictures of our cat Luna. She went above and beyond by sweeping up litter dust, watering our plants, taking out trash, and even threw away some old bouquets of flowers we had forgotten to take care of. When we got home, Luna was happy to see us, and it was clear she had been properly loved while we were gone. Christina is the BEST, and we will definitely bring her back to watch Lu the next time we’re on vacation. 10 out of 5 stars!”

I will treat your pet as if it's my own pet. I have a house with a large fenced backyard area, it’s spacious enough for the dogs to roam around safely in. I love to go out on a few walks throughout the day and provide play time, grooming, feeding time, etc. Please contact me if you have any questions, I am very flexible and easy going. I am very flexible as far as availability goes. I am available 24/7 and can work around your own personal schedule. I will have frequent potty breaks throughout the day (every 2-3 hours or on an as needed basis). I also will be doing 1-2 longer walks throughout the day as well. I make time every evening for play time, so your dog will always feel loved and happy! I have a fenced area out back where I can take your dog out to go potty. I also do frequent walks, my neighborhood is very safe and secluded.
“Sierra was responsive, friendly and arrived on time for each of 3 walks we booked. She took good care of our senior dog, sent pictures and was in good communication. Much appreciated!”
“Erica was great she took really good care of my cat Sadie. She handled all my cats special needs. it was the first time I was able to go on vacation and not have to worry about my fur baby. I knew she was in good hands. Erica kept me well informed and sent me pictures daily. My cat really likes her I can tell cuz she acted like she was looking for her the first night that i got home right about the time that Erica makes her visits. Also hearing that my cat was following her all over the place tells me that she really liked her. Thank you for your service. Diane Gotti”
About: I have been around all types of breeds, sizes, and temperament all my life. I have a special place in my heart for big dogs! I have trained dogs with basic commands, walked, fed, bathed, and e-collar trained with many pets including my own. I house sit often for family friends, including their furry friends. I am currently in-between jobs and am looking to earn money doing something I love! I have my own car, and as I search for a new position lots of free time to care for pets or your home. I have had multiple family dogs, and cats throughout my life and they truly make my life full! I also treat my own and other pets and space with respect and love. I understand every pet has different needs and am always willing to understand to provide the best care possible!
“Jaide is awesome and I feel really lucky that she will now be coming weekly to stay with Aery! She was very understanding and open to all of my initial care information and Aery’s first sit went great, so I know Jaide took the precautions I asked for seriously as Aery is high needs. All in all, Jaide did very well in caring for Aery! Definitely recommend and I am so grateful!”
About: I’ve taken care of all animals since a young age. I strive to be someone reliable that you can count on and trust with your babies! I have a very flexible schedule since I have my own business and would be more than willing to help other people out with their pet care needs and would make sure to be reliable and always communicate! Making sure that the fur babies have love and feel safe with me is most important so gaining that animals trust. I am a big spoiler and love to play with them and cuddle them! I have a dog of my own so I have experience in everything. Feeding, walking, administering medication, etc…. And also taking to appointments!
“Veronica is very communicative and clearly loves taking care of the animals she's watching. We were very happy to find someone not only great with out kitties, but also knowlegeable about aquariums.”

Thank you in advance for considering me in this important decision! Let me know if you have any questions for me, I would love to answer. Have a wonderful day! I’m a stay at home mom so I have all the love and time to care for a pet as my own through the day I have a fenced backyard and I like to go on walks and play with them. I am really aware of safety and triggers to keep the pet calm
About: *^due to bad experiences here, I’ve raised my prices.** I was born into a family of German Shepherd lovers, and grew up primarily taking care of our German Shepherds until about 10 years old when we also adopted cats and labradors. Once I graduated college, I adopted an 8 week old Alaskan malamute, who I cared for his entire 11 years of life until he passed just recently in January. I am not ready to adopt again, but am missing the presence of dogs in my life and looking to fill that space by helping friends, family, neighbors and members of the community with their dog care needs. I am experienced with puppies, high maintenance animals, and especially with large breeds (my boy was 150lbs at a healthy weight and required at least 5 miles of exercise a day). I am kind, caring, uniquely experienced, energetic and reliable. Due to my experience, I know all too well what it feels like to have to find reliable, safe, trusted care for a large, high maintenance, and/or misunderstood breed - I know that I can definitely offer that unique service in this arena. I currently am taking a break from my career as an executive assistant. I am extremely active during the week, and have plenty of free time in general. I am respectful to how you’d like your dog to be taken care of in your home and out and about. No matter what the need, I am able to discuss, negotiate and accommodate. Though all are welcome - due to my experience, my niche has become working with and caring for large, high maintenance, and/or misunderstood breeds.
“Our normal cat sitter was having a new baby while we were going out of town, so we had to find someone new. I found Rebecca after another sitter that I had lined up backed out and I was so glad I did. She did a great job! I also cat sit for Rover, and Rebecca gave the wonderful care that I always try to give my own clients. We appreciated the notes, and pictures from each day that she visited. My kids were upset about leaving their 3 kittens for so long, but they felt better seeing that they were in great hands with Rebecca. I will definitely use Rebecca again and recommend to others families with cats.”
“Julianna was fantastic with our ragamuffin, Cal. She arrived at the same time every day and sent great pictures. He was well-cared for! And, she even checked on him on Thanksgiving, which we greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Julianna - she's a wonerful pet sitter!”
About: I just recently moved to Oregon from Las Vegas. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from high energy puppies to mellow seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with pets whether we’re out on walks or hanging out at home. I’m big on clear communication, keeping routines consistent, and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m new to Oregon and have full availability right now, including weekdays, weekends, and evenings. Happy to be flexible based on your dog or cat’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving meds, or creating a calm space, I do my best to keep things stress free. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and honest check-ins.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saint Helens stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Saint Helens 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. 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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Saint Helens with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
