âMaleny had great communication, really spent quality time with our 2 cats and senior Lab. She stuck to the schedule and took care to follow instructions. She sent great pictures to ease our minds and was truely wonderful. We will plan to use her in the future if she is available.â
About: TLDR - I have experience with many types of pets with varying needs. I have two kids (ages 12 and 14) and many other creatures in the home. I am available for drops ins and walks, but longer term engagements would have to be at my home. I have a fully fenced yard and can welcome a dog to come stay in my home. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I am passionate about good animals care and will totally fangirl over your critter. I have previous obedience training experience and have taken three dogs to state for obedience competition. I have house trained many puppies, so I'm happy to support an owner in the trenches of the puppy years. I am available for weekend visits and walks every day. Over the years, I have cared for dogs and cats with varying medical and behavioral needs. From cats needing injections to highly reactive dogs neesing a calm presence, I have expertly cared for them all. I have two daughters, aged 12 and 14, who have lived their life around pets of all sorts and love to come with me when I am visiting a dog or cat. If you are not comfortable having them in your home, or your pet is not comfortable with kids, that is totally understandable. I am self-employed, so my schedule is flexible to allow to fit pet care into my schedule. I have a car so I am able to travel outside of my immediate neighborhood for pet care or house sitting. In my own home I have a fully fenced yard and space to run around. When I am out of the home I kennel my own dog, who has anxiety and that helps her feel more secure. My cats enjoy a fully enclosed catio in the back yard. I am cery careful to have dogs fully leashed before heading out the door to prevent any running into the street. I keep an eye on anything in a home that might cause injury to a pet.

About: I've been looking after dogs, primarily small ones, for quite a long time now. Have had to feed and walk and watch over them plenty of times over the years for family members. Currently unemployed, so my schedule is quite free, which includes all reasonable hours of the day. Currently unable to watch over animals at my place of living. I personally care for my own cat and one of my mother's dogs on the daily, but the house itself isn't fit for me to watch over any additional animals.

About: I've lived my whole life around pets, specifically cats and dogs. My family and friends alike all relied on me for pet sitting care which included regular dog walking and extended, overnight stays. I'm currently not working and only going to school. When I do get a job, it will only be part-time and I'll update my schedule accordingly. As of right now, I have ample time for frequent check-in's and overnight stays, especially in Yamhill County. I unfortunately do not offer pet care at my personal home, but am willing to stay overnight at client's homes. I believe in leaving places better than I found them, AKA no trace left behind!
âI am so grateful to Mickayla for ensuring my cat, Luna, was well cared for while I was out of town. I loved the photo updates each evening. She contacted me right away when there was a problem. She was professional and courteous. I recommend her highly.â

About: I have been in the pet boarding and daycare industry for over 2 years now! And have had a lot of experience in home sitter! I can give oral medication, nail trims, and baths also have some experience in leash training and leash reactivity! I prefer mid day on Wednesday and evenings on Tuesdays and mornings on Monday, Thursday, Friday, Sundays! I can make Saturdays work but not 100% open that day! I take both my pups out multiple times a day in the back yard and play ball, and take on a walk once a day for about 30 mins to an hour! And work on some training 15 - 20 mins per day!
âBrayden was wonderful with our pups! You could tell he genuinely cared about them and made the most of each of their hour-long drop-in visits. He was great about communicating with us and always sent updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pups were completely conked out after their visits, so we knew they had gotten plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment. We also had the chance to meet Sara beforehand, and both she and Brayden were great to work with. We would absolutely book with them again!â

About: I grew up having a dog in the house so I know what itâs like to care for one, and the responsibilities that come with it. I believe dogs are like humans meaning they need the same love and attention that we do. While your dog is in my care we will go on walks, Iâll play with them, and take care of all its basic needs as well as providing pictures and videos to keep you updated. One of my special skills is that I am very patient with animals. I know itâs hard to trust a stranger with your fur baby but I am very trustworthy and caring and will treat your dog as if it was my own. Thank you very much!
About: We honor the spaces of pets and allow them the time to become comfortable. We always assure they feel safe, and know we are a guest in their space or they are an honored guest in our family home. We love spending time with animals and have been fortunate to provide care to friends animals overnight and for daily care. My husband and I work full-time, on opposite schedules. We are available evenings during the week and weekends. During the week, we are more than happy to board pets as needed. I work from home, and he works only a few days a week. We have a fenced yard and we live in a dog lover neighborhood. We take our friends dogs on walks often, as needed. We have cared for family and friends dogs overnight and they all enjoyed their time at our home. We tend to spoil pets (based on parents discretion of course) while they are with us. Our home is their home, and we never want a pet to feel unsafe or unhappy while spending time with our family. Our family will care for them like our own.

About: I was a veterinary technician (2 years) with experience caring for both small and large animals, and I spent four years rescuing and fostering animals. Iâve worked in a veterinary clinic with a strong focus on emergency medicine, so Iâve seen firsthand how quickly things can go wrong and know what to watch for when it comes to your petâs health and safety. I was a hospital technician for one year, meaning my job was to monitor patients, give medication, and notify the vet to any health changes. I plan to attend veterinary school in the near future, and in my free time I do TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) for feral cats and volunteer walking dogs at local shelters. I also minored in Human-Animal Relations, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior and how they think. Iâm comfortable caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs, and safety is always my number-one priority. Iâm very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall health, and I will never put your pet in an unsafe situation. Mostly, though, Iâm just a HUGE animal lover. Getting to spend time caring for your pet genuinely feels like a treat to me. My favorite dog breeds are probably pit bulls and corgis, but my favorite animal will always be a cat. :) Boarding & Day Care I also have the perfect property for boarding, overnight stays, or day care! I live on a beautiful 5 acre property with 3 acres being a large fenced pasture where dogs can safely stretch their legs and explore. Iâm a horse trainer, so Iâm on the property every day and your dog will have plenty of supervision and attention. Iâm also very careful about keeping dogs separated when appropriate. I do have a very friendly Lab who loves having dog friends, but they only interact if youâre comfortable with it and give me permission. The property has everything a dog could want for a little vacation- large grassy pastures, a creek, and wooded areas to explore. I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise, enrichment, attention, and downtime. Most dogs leave happy, tired, and ready for a good nap! :) Iâm also located less than 2 minutes from Silver Creek Animal Clinic, which provides emergency animal care. I pray nothing ever happens but it is conveniently close. Currently all proceeds are going towards childhood horseâs cancer treatment đ she took care of me as a youth so now itâs my turn to take care of her. I recently started my own horse training business, so I work primarily from my property and have an extremely flexible schedule. This makes pet care a really natural fit into my day! I feed and care for my horses around 8 AM and 5 PM, and I spend the middle of the day working and training them. I work with my Mom so she can care for the horses when I need to take care of your pets. During breaks between rides and training sessions, Iâm able to spend time with the dogs, whether that means letting them run and play in the pasture, going for a walk, giving them some one-on-one attention, or just hanging out together. Working a horse takes about 45 minutes, where your dog will be left in a covered run where they can potty if needed. Because Iâm on the property throughout the day, I can also accommodate early-morning or late-night drop-offs, bathroom breaks, walks, and other schedules that might be difficult for someone with a traditional 9â5 job. Your pet gets to be part of my everyday routine rather than being left alone for long stretches of time. I have plenty of space for dogs to exercise and explore, and Iâm able to give them frequent attention throughout the day while still maintaining a consistent routine for my horses. I do not mix dogs and horses! I keep them very separate. Your dogâs stay will feel more like a little vacation than a traditional boarding facility! I have a 3-acre fenced pasture where dogs can safely run, explore, and get plenty of exercise and enrichment. Iâm here throughout the day to supervise and spend time with the dogs. I keep all boarders separated from one another, unless you are dropping off more than one dog :) I also have a very friendly Lab who absolutely loves having dog friends, and Iâm happy to let her play with your dog if allowed. You can see her in my photos. Otherwise, your dog gets their own space and one-on-one attention. I can get away with the your dog never knowing there is other dogs on property. There are several comfortable options for your pet depending on their needs and your preferences. Dogs have access to comfortable dog mats and fresh water, as well as a covered run where they can go outside and potty even when the weather isnât cooperating. I also have large, heated horse stalls that can be used as comfortable private spaces. For dogs who are potty trained and comfortable in a home environment, they can also spend time inside my house or have their own room. Iâm happy to tailor their routine to what theyâre most comfortable with. Oregon winters can be rainy, but your dog wonât be stuck inside all day. When the weather is wet, they can run and play in my indoor arena or barn, which are both warm and provide plenty of room to move around. Most importantly, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and supervision. Iâm on the property every day, keep boarders separated, and make sure every dog has fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of opportunities for exercise and attention. Whether theyâre running through the pasture, exploring the property, relaxing in the house, or curling up for a nap, I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while theyâre here.

About: What sets me apart is that I treat pets like family, not just a checklist. I pay close attention to their routines, personalities, comfort levels, and little quirks, whether that means giving a shy pet space, keeping a playful pet engaged, or sending updates so you feel reassured while youâre gone. I am reliable, communicative, and genuinely care about making your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home đ Pet sitting is my full-time work, so my days really are built around caring for animals and showing up for them consistently. I love that I get to spend my time helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. Since this is my main focus, Iâm able to be thoughtful and flexible with each petâs routine. Some pets want playtime and attention, some need a calm presence and a little patience, and some just want their meals on time and their space respected. I try to meet each pet where they are and keep their day feeling as normal and stress-free as possible. I also have my own cat, Mango, so I know how much the little details matter. I bring that same care into every visit, whether Iâm checking in on cats, caring for dogs, sending updates, or just helping your pets and home feel settled while youâre gone Iâm very respectful of both your pet and your home. I make sure doors, gates, windows, food, and supplies are handled carefully, and I pay attention to the little things that help prevent stress or accidents. I also like to send updates and photos so you feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing while youâre away. My goal is to keep your petâs routine as normal as possible and help them feel secure in their own space. Whether your pet is social, shy, playful, or more independent, Iâll meet them where they are and give them care that feels patient, gentle, and trustworthy.
About: I have professional dog walking/sitting experience from a license company in Atlanta called PetSitGirls. I understand how important communication is in building trust between pet owners and myself with me. You will get an update with every walk or visit and I will ensure you get nothing but professional dog walking/sitting experience with me. I currently work from home part time and am available to watch pets anytime. I do not leave home with animals in it for any extended period of time. I live in a safe walkable area and am able to give walks at any time. I am currently working from home and available to keep your pet company 24/7. I have a very clean, smoke free home.
About: I've had pets most of my life and I consider them as family. My clients have said that I'm the dog Whisperer.I develop a strong bond with the pets I take care and they all love me. I can administer meds and I can do brushing, feeding, fetching, walking, bathing of animals if necessary and lots of tlc. I haven't found an animal that I haven't loved. I do have transportation to take them to parks and other places that they need to go to. My clients all say that I have truly made a very large difference in their pets lives as well as their own. I also do basice training of dogs. Several of my clients have given me keys to their homes. I'm retired and my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm open to walking dogs twice a day if the owner wants me to that. I can also do last minute requests also. I have a cat and he has a very easy life living with me. I take care of dogs and cats that I walk or house sit with like they are part of my family. I treat them with the respect and dignity that they deserve.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my combination of reliability, versatility, and genuine love for animals. I prioritize building a strong bond with each pet under my care, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved in my presence. I have lots of experience that allow me to cater to the individual needs of each pet. Whether itâs administering medication, providing plenty of exercise, or providing specialized care, I have the skills to handle it all! I understand the importance of communication with pet owners. I provide regular updates and pictures and am always available to address any concerns or questions they may have. I always strive to give owners peace of mind while away from their pets, and make sure they know their furry friend is in capable loving hands. My commitment to excellence, adaptability, and genuine passion for animals set me apart as a pet sitter who goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of every pet I care for. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. I allocate specific time slots each day for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the pets under my care. This ensures they receive the attention and activity they need to stay happy and healthy. When caring for pets in my home or my clientâs home, I tailor my services based on the specific needs of the pet and the clientâs preferences. Whether in my home or the clientâs home, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pet, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve.
About: I have been to go to pet sitter in my neighborhood all of my life. I've dealt with one neighbor's dog in particular who is a difficult dog and requires medication. Pet care is always my number one priority because if someone was taking care of my dog, I would want the same level of care that I provide. I like to learn and also know the routine of the animal I'm watching to best fit their needs and learn or change when necessary.
About: Iâve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and have been a Rover sitter for the past two years. Iâve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, and I truly enjoy meeting new furry (or not-so-furry) friends. While Iâm most experienced with dogs and cats, Iâm confident in my ability to care for other types of pets as well. Just let me know what they need, and Iâll make sure they are well looked after. I work full-time and have a flexible schedule. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and I am in the office Tuesday through Thursday. If your pets need companionship during the day, I have the ability to work remotely to make sure they are not left alone. I have a car and am available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. I just ask for at least one week's notice so I can plan accordingly and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I always prioritize your petâs comfort and safety, whether Iâm visiting your home or caring for them during a walk. I follow your petâs routine as closely as possible, keep their environment clean and calm, and always double-check doors, gates, and any instructions you provide. I have reliable transportation, so I can get to and from your home without issue and am happy to coordinate details with you in advance.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 5,581 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saint Paul. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your petâs routine and the sitterâs availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your petâs usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, donât forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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.
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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
