“Miss Daniela is incredibly sweet. She has cared for our friendly giant twice now. He gets spoiled and all the love he could need while we are gone. He’s also been on medications and she has had no problem giving him his medications. We highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Denise & her husband were wonderful with Henry. They gave him lots of love and snuggles, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been well cared for. Denise will always be our first pick for our boarding needs!”
“My sweet pup and I both adore Amy! She’s definitely my go to girl if I need another sitter! My sweet Bear looked back at her as we drove away in the car almost as if to say “wait, why are we leaving my friend??” She became attached to Amy and her home. Amy treated her like family and it shows. Thank you for everything Amy!! 🤍”
About: I've been an animal lover since birth. I've had a variety of pets growing up and am open minded and caring towards all animals. I've had dogs, cats, bird, fish, lizards, snakes, and hamsters. I've worked at an animal hospital as well as taken animal science classes in college. I've also volunteered at a zoo. I have a lot of experience under my belt and I'd take care of your pet, your way. I am currently a stay at home parent looking for part time work to fill my day while my kiddos are in school. I am able to care for your pets as needed with my flexible schedule. I have a fenced yard. I also have a dedicated dog run area that is also separately fenced. I have two Australian Shepherds to keep your pup company or I can keep them all separate. I also have the space to crate train if needed.
“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”
“Linda was FANTASTIC! My wife and I am very protective of our French Bulldog, Penny. We rarely leave her alone and never for 9 days. But we had a vacation cruise booked and had to find a sitter for Penny. We were both very nervous leaving her anywhere for so long. But Linda put us to ease after meeting her and touring her home. She has a large backyard and I personally walked the perimeter (twice!) carefully looking for any holes or places a small dog could weasel out. It's secure! One thing we really appreciated was that Linda works from home and was with Penny the entire time. We got updates and pictures daily and that helped us relax and enjoy our vacation. Penny got lots of love and attention and care. Most important to us, she was safe. Thank you Linda! We will be back.”
“Kristina really enjoyed having Winston as a guest. She sent updates and pics, and he clearly was fully relaxed and happy in her care. I will use her again, and again, and again!!”
About: Hi! I'm Natalie and I am the pet sitter you are looking for! I became a vet tech over 20 years ago and noticed kennels stressed out our babies and also wouldn't take special needs pets. So I started pet sitting in my home. I have since expanded and now can sit in your home or mine! I am experienced with all kinds of special needs dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens and every other animal you can think of! Medication schedule? No problem at all! You get pics of your babies while you are away, so you can relax knowing they are in loving hands! I currently work dayshift, but can run back on lunches if your babies need medications or to be let out during the day (depending on distance from town). I also have a son who helps out as needed and can run and let babies out if you are further out. If you choose to board at my house, someone is always home! I have a fenced yard, and although I have dogs and cats of my own, they all get along with other babies. I also have a two family setup here, so if your baby needs to be separated, they can board downstairs with me, while my babies are upstairs with my son. I allow animals on my couch and bed at night, but will respect if you do not allow them on furniture.
“Laura was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Gordy! It’s never easy leaving our dog with someone new, but she made us feel completely at ease from the start. She is kind, communicative and is clearly super good with animals! She took Gordy to the dog park and let him play and get some energy out! It’s obvious he had been loved and well looked after while we were away. We really appreciated the updates (with pictures and videos!) and the peace of mind she gave us throughout the stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!”
“Alysse did an excellent job of loving on our dog while we were gone for four nights. It also appears that our dog LOVED having Alyssa’s dog to play with during her time there. If you want your dog to receive a lot of love and enjoy some fellow dog playtime, this is the sitter you want.”
About: I'm currently an animal control officer for the city with a life long passion for animals. I have a vast array of experience with all species with my primary focus being on dogs, cats and equines. I have 3+ years of experience working in a mixed animal veterinary practice of 7 doctors and have maintained relationships with those veterinarians and technicians which gives me experience caring for animals in a medical capacity. This makes things like caring for medically complex furry friends, geriatric pets & giving medications, including injectables a breeze. I have 10+ years caring for horses and other large animals both personally and professionally. I managed a horse boarding facility in OR for 3+ years and then proceeded to work under a well known trainer. My work is fairly flexible making potty breaks easy, although I do work 40 hours a week. I am more than willing to stay over and care for your pets as it they were my own. I take pride in keeping your pets safe while they are in my care! Their safety and comfort is my #1 priority when petsitting. I pay close attention to body language and how your pets are communicating with me using their own signals to make them as comfortable as possible. I am happy to stay at your home to help facilitate this.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Shady Cove is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
90% of sitters in Shady Cove 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 Shady Cove 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 Shady Cove.
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 Shady Cove. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 90% 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 Shady Cove 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.
