“Pamela took great care of my two dogs while I was out of state for the long weekend. I was worried about leaving my 1 year old alone for so long, but Pamela left me with no concerns and I was able to enjoy my weekend without worrying about my dogs :) I will definitely be hiring her again for any future trips I take! I’m also fairly certain she tidied up my house as well, which absolutely exceeds my expectations!”
“Danielle and her daughter Cheyenne were wonderful pet sitters. We were away for five days for our son’s wedding, and thanks to them, we were able to enjoy the wedding without worrying about our dogs. We have two very sweet dogs, a 3-year-old and a 16-year-old senior dog. Since our older dog is more comfortable staying in his own familiar home, Danielle kindly agreed to care for them at our house. Because Danielle’s husband was in the hospital, Cheyenne stayed most of the time to take care of our dogs. Danielle kept us updated by sending pictures of them, which gave us great peace of mind and reassured us that they were doing well. We truly appreciate the love and care they gave our dogs. Thanks to Danielle and Cheyenne, we were able to focus on our son’s wedding and return home knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for. We would definitely reach out to them again whenever we need help in the future!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Get along with most dogs and will not let them bully me (my dogs are bullies lol). I’ve also trained many of our dogs, just basic sit, stay, and lay. I currently work M-F 8-5 but am looking for some after work walking buddy and am available on weekends anytime. I’m mostly interested in walking but can be open to other care. I currently have 2 cats at my apartment. Lots of enrichment for them. I am not open to boarding for any animals as one of my cats is sensitive to any changes.
About: As a retired librarian and dedicated pet parent with 20 years of experience, I provide personalized care that meets your pet’s unique needs. From walking to mealtime to playtime to administering medication, I handle every detail with care. I provide regular updates and photos and I’m flexible to accommodate your schedule. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I look forward to being their new pal! As a licensed Security Guard in Oregon, I bring a unique level of reliability, attention to detail, and preparedness to my pet sitting services. This credential reflects my ability to handle high-responsibility situations, prioritize safety, and remain calm under pressure—qualities that ensure your pets and home are in capable hands. While I do not provide security services, my training equips me to respond effectively in emergencies, giving you added peace of mind while you’re away. I am a retired librarian and have a self-contained Class B, with a home base in an RV cooperative. I am thus fully mobile with my own amenities. I am also a licensed security guard with a background check on file with the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training. As I have a fully self-contained Class B RV, I have my own amenities. I happily and responsibly attend to your dogs' and cats' needs, and ensure that your pet and home are safe and secure.
“Amanda did a great job watching out Bernese. She gave daily updates and sent lots of photos and videos. She wasn't afraid to reach out if she had questions and even made special meals to help with my dog's digestion. I would highly recommend her as a sitter and plan on having her watch our dog on the future.”
About: I have owned 10+ dogs and cats of varying sizes and maintenance levels. I am comfortable with all ages and can provide whatever extra care is needed. No dog gets treated like anything less than one of my own (who are my children). Over the last five years, I've watched pets off and on wherever I've lived in Oregon. Now that we have a homestead in southern Oregon, I'm excited to give your dogs and mine the best dog life imaginable every single day. No matter what, doggos are always at the center of our daily schedule. I work from home teaching online college courses (thank you, Starlink!), so I am available at all times for the pups. And when we are outside doing chores on the homestead, the dogs are right there with us! My partner, Michael, drives to Roseburg or Grants Pass multiple times a week and can meet you to provide doggie shuttle service to our remote homestead, which is two hours from town. Our dogs, Ghost and Ranger, are super dog-friendly and LOVE having new pups to play with. I am comfortable administering medications, working on training commands, and following whatever routine you think is best! Your dog(s) will be treated just like my own, with plenty of love, kisses, and exercise! Just let me know what you need, and I'll try to make it happen!
About: I am passionate about our animal friends and hope to add more pets to my daily life! I especially love pup time and am always excited to meet more friends. I’d love to help you and your family by offering quality, caring service to your pets. (: Currently I am offering sitting and drop-in visits seperately but due to health needs I am most able to provide exercise, energy expenditure and mental and physical enrichment either from your home or via outings. I do have a service dog that accompanies me most places and he loves making new friends, which can be a great option if yours also enjoy regular playdates. He is good with kids, cats and other dogs, if you have any questions feel free to ask! I am always open to making other arrangements based on your needs and prioritize finding accessible solutions and making accommodations to ensure your pets are able to recieve quality care. (: I am available in the morning through evening as well as overnight! I’d love to work around your schedule and to help make things as accessible as possible! Currently I am not offering boarding or daycare in my home. I am in a shared living space and unfortunately don’t have enough room for more furry friends at this time.
About: Hi, my name is Nadia! I work at a canine college and I’m surrounded by dogs everyday! I’m currently working on getting my vet tech license as well! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, raising litters of puppies, caring for my own pets, and dog sitting for friends and family. I know how to give pets the love they deserve while keeping them safe and healthy. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or walks, I treat every dog like my own. Im available anytime! I can come do some walkes or pet sit for you! Just let me know. I love spending time with animals. 😊 I have a lot of experience with animals and absolutely love them. I can care for your pets at my house or at your house.
“Eve and Alyssa did such a fantastic job watching Murphy over Thanksgiving! They kept me updated on how he was doing and when he was being fed/walked, etc. Eve was also a trooper for dealing with my oven going out on the first night. I came home to a happy dog and a very clean house, and I would definitely rebook with them in the future!”
About: I absolutely love dogs ! They truly are man’s best friend till the end. I have two dogs of my own , whom I love very much ! I have experience in dog sitting as well as dog walking and I am passionate about providing good care and excited to meet new pups! I fit pet care into my day/week routine because I have two dogs of my own. One is a pit bull and another is a boarder collie so to say they need care is an understatement. They have the upmost energy. I will play with them and wear them out so they get a good nights sleep. With that being said we walk, hike, run, go to the beach, play fetch , etc. as much as we can. I treat my puppies very kindly , if not they’re quite spoiled. 😉 I care very deeply about animals and I aim to help when I can !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Stephens 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 Stephens 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Stephens 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
