“So happy to have found Lizzie to take care of my spoiled kitty. Communication was great while we were gone and my cat was perfectly happy when we got home. She is now my #1 go to cat sitter!”
“Sara was an absolute treasure. I always am clear that cameras are everywhere in my house. I can tell you these things as facts as I witnessed them: - Sara is warm and loving. My dogs are big and sometimes scare others, but are gentle giants. Sara was sweet and offered lots of love and cuddles. - Sara actually uses all her precious time to PLAY with your pets. I have had sitters that mindlessly scroll and just sit on their phone. Not Sara. She even tried to have my grumpy senior boy play, and got him to wag his tail and join in on the fun. So sweet!! - Sara is not only on time, but early. Many times I’ve had late sitters and my babies are on a schedule. Always breaks my heart when I am away. Not with Sara! She was eager to help. - she provided pictures and updates! She even asked if we had any treats for the fur babes. The consideration and care is next level… I will use no one else. I trust no one but her and I know my fur babies look forward to spending time with her next trip I take. Look no further y’all; she is SIMPLY THE BEST!!!”
“Renee was wonderful! She clearly has a passion for taking care of pets and took time to really get to know our Nova so she could provide the best possible care. We received regular updates, detailed notes, and the sweetest photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Not only was our cat happy and relaxed when we returned, but everything in our home was spotless and just as we left it. Highly recommend Renee!!”
About: My life has been full of dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I have managed aggressive Rottweilers and carried tired English bulldogs. What dogs provide is unadulterated love and my goal is to make sure that your dog gets a tailored experience. Safety is key and flexibility is my mantra, nothing matters more than each pet getting the fullest out of their time with me. Monday through Thursday I am flexible to manage walks from 11-1 and full attention to my pets after 4pm. Friday through Sunday I am completely open to provide care. Care is tailored to each pet based on information provided by their owner. I will control as many factors as I can such as cleanliness, eyes on play, and proper walking distends from unknown animals. I treat every interaction as a fresh start and make sure animals in my care get the attention the need and deserve.
“Heather was amazing with our cats, playing with them, making sure they were fed, watered, and had a clean litter box. She sent daily emails with tons of pictures. Will definitely book again!”
“I have asked for Erich’s help watching my cat Yoko several times now, he is fantastic! Really great communication and is willing to help on short notice. Most importantly he takes great care of Yoko. Truly one of the best rover sitters I’ve ever used.”
“Hannah was a great sitter for my 2 cats while I was out of town. They both liked her right away, and she sent me many cute pictures of them looking happy and safe. Hannah was always communicative, responsible, and very pleasant to work with. I will definitely ask her to watch my cats for me again and would recommend her to others as well!”
About: I have experience taking care of multiple pets that require different needs. I have trained puppies and mature dogs from shelters. During my free time I volunteer dog walking at the Oregon Humane Society, so i am well versed in dogs that have separation anxiety, lack of exposure, or behavioural challenges. I am very active and always happy to go on a doggy jog or long walk for active dogs! Both of my dogs are senior doggies, being 11 and 14 I understand the extra love they need! I am very flexible with frequent visits, as I am free throughout the day and evening to stop by for visits and walks. I am open to overnight/ in house care aswell! Both of my dogs are very friendly and I will be able to accommodate boarding for pets in my home, I have a fenced backyard with lots of play space as well as multiple rooms for dogs to stay in if they need their own space. I am very active and love running, dog walking/ jogging is something I love to do! For boarding, I have a very safe space with a fenced yard, trained dogs, extra materials like crates, room dividers, portable water bowls, dog wash materials, toys etc. In my family we make sure that we balance play/ active/ rest/ and quality time with our dogs! Making sure they get outside and feel tended to and loved is very critical to us.
“Adeline was amazing with our 7 month old Havanese! We can’t wait to use her services again. She has such a calm demeanor and is so kind. You can tell that she really loves caring for your fur babies. Do not pass up the services that Adeline provides, we are thrilled that we found her!”
“Brayden is a wonderful and reliable pet sitter. We have had two great training sessions together. We unfortunately have had to cancel our plans for travel, but we are confident our pets will be in excellent hands if we are needing help in the future! I recommend Brayden wholeheartedly”
About: I've always loved dogs of all sizes and I've been lucky enough to grow up around them. For fifteen years, I have walked, cared for, fed, trained and loved on as many dogs as I could. Whether they're cuddly or prefer their own space, want to play fetch for hours, or simply want a sniff filled walk in the park, I've enjoyed every moment of fur filled love and play. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from Saint Bernards and German Shepherds all the way to Pomeranians, Jack Russel Terriers, and all sizes in between. I have lots of experience with walking large and small dogs, whether they be amazing on a leash or like to pull you around at full strength and speed. I also have lots of experience reading canine body language, working with territorial or dog selective pups, even with anxious or high energy pups. I have a very flexible schedule and often I am available on short notice for walks, drop-ins, or short (1-2 nights) overnight stays. Whether your pup just needs a walk while you're at work or they need a friend for a few hours to play and feed them, I will always do my best to be available. I currently only do pet sitting in your pup's home environment, however I find this helps make all dogs much more comfortable when their favorite humans aren't around. I do have a large and very friendly dog of my own, Harley, who would happily join for a playdate if your pup would like a new friend. I will always do my best to take care of your pup just like you do and make them feel safe, loved, and happy.
“Katie was amazing! Katie showed up on time, was very respectful of my home and showed great understanding of just what my older senior cat needed. Katie sent me pictures at every check-in and made sure my baby was eating while I was gone ( which was my biggest concern with going away!). Thank you Katie! Will definitely be using Katie’s services again and would highly recommend.”
“Elizabeth did an amazing job with our cat! My message with instructions on getting into our home and care info didn't go through on the Rover app but Elizabeth was a great communicator and made sure she got in contact with me so she could take care of Pax. Really appreciated her diligence and Pax seemed very happy when we got home. Would definitely book again!”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for my own pets, as well as dogs and cats for friends and family.

About: Growing up with a menagerie of dogs, cats, and farm animals, I believe that pets are family and they reflect the love that they receive!

Amy agreed to watch our two pups, Liska and Miles, on relatively short notice. She was excellent! Her daily photos and feedback, and care of our pups was amazing. We will certainly reach out to her again the next time we're out of town. Highly recommend! And thank you!
Katie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in for last-minute drop-in visits during the holidays, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She took great care of my two dogs, Finn and Forest, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about them. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and flexible dog sitter.
Rylie is warm, friendly, and one of those people you feel comfortable with right away. She did a great job watching our dogs, and they absolutely loved her. She played with them, kept us updated, and gave them so much attention. We will definitely use her again!I

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sherwood 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 Sherwood 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 Sherwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
