About: i've been dog-sitting for 4 years now, I have worked at many houses in the San Jose area in California. I have done cat-sitting for my neighbors and dog walking in Ashland. I am free to work many hours and I would love to take care of your pets! I am in grad school at SOU through June of 2027, and I will be student teaching for much of it. I am available for more hours in the afternoons once school is out and before classes begin. Classes for me are only twice a week, and I will make sure to fit in a walk before it gets dark. My home has one cat, and I grew up with a dog, so I know how to take care of both of these animals. I always lock the door before leaving the house, and I check to make sure I know where my animals are at all times when I am home. I am comfortable feeding pets, giving them water, and giving them medicine if needed. I also know how much quality time means to pets, so I can spend extra time with pets after walks.
“Brandy was a lifesaver when we had to leave town for an emergency — she knows our pets and routines and jumped in the same day to assist. She went above and beyond to ensure everyone was cared for (ourselves included) and we feel so lucky to have her as a sitter.”
About: I grew up with 3 dogs and a pig. I love all animals. Pigs are my favorite. Hopefully my boyfriend and I are getting a puppy soon. As a full time dog walker/pet sitter I have availability most days. Just give me a heads up and I’ll be playing with your pups in no time :) Unfortunately I can’t board at my apartment. I can however stay overnight at your residence or do frequent check ins depending on your preference.
“Kara was very nice to accommodate my last-minute booking. She did great with my two pups! Very patient with my anxious boy, and she spent time to play with my very active girl! Thank you, Kara, for spending time with my Lucy on her birthday 💕”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13. Family friends have always relied on me for help. They trust me more than anything else. Hi! I’m a dependable, caring, and patient animal lover who treats every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll provide plenty of attention and care. I’m reliable, communicate well, and I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and giving them the love and care they deserve! I have 2 family golden-doodles who have taught me huge amounts about dogs! My family adopted them when they were puppies and have been adored since.
“This is the second time Chesley has watched my cat and I am happy with her service. She is communicative and let me know of a minor issue in my home so that it wasn’t a surprise upon my return. I will hire her again for sure.”
“I reached out to Dora last minute, and she was absolutely amazing! Despite encountering some trouble with the lock on my house during her first visit, she never gave up. Thanks to her fantastic care, my 11-year-old bulldog, Noelle, is feeling happy and content. I am incredibly grateful for Dora's last-minute help!”
About: I've had lots of experience especially with small dogs. I've been a foster parent for the humane society and ended up adopting a dog that I fostered. However, he recently passed so there are no dogs in my home at present. I may have a small dog in my home from time to time as I'm fostering again. I'm comfortable with senior dogs, too. My home is quiet and comfortable. I'm currently working very part-time, so I will have time to care for your treasured dog. I'm available weekends, too. I'm out of cell range during the day on some Thursdays. So if you try to contact me on a Thursday, it will take several hours for me to get back to you. Otherwise, my response rate is exceptional. I have a fenced back yard with a small lawn. If you have me care for dogs in my home, I have crates they can use. Environment is quiet and tranquil.
“Once again I can not thank Lexy enough for taking care of our cat, Nestor! Lexy is incredibly kind, responsible, and accommodating! She spends time with our cat and sends the best pictures! Lexy is our go-to any time we need cat care. THANK YOU LEXY!”
“Anika is an incredibly kind and caring dog lover! She takes wonderful care of my high maintenance puppy! She is extremely patient and I know when Anika is there my girl is in good hands. I plan on using Anika continually to care for my dog.”
About: Dogs have been in my life ever since I can remember. I speak their language, and they speak mine. While growing up as an only child, I connected with my dogs as if they were siblings. By nature I'm a very compassionate, caring, and a responsible person. You can rest assured that your precious ones will be loved and nurtured while in my care! I'm an artist and an art instructor. I'm home most of the time, and currently have no pets. I miss having a dog in my life, yet have not gotten over my last fur baby. She lived to 16yrs old, and she was the best! I have a happy home that welcomes pets. I love to take walks, and with a doggie by my side it makes the walk so much better! There are no other pets or children so I can give your fur baby all my attention! My home is clean and quiet. I make sure it is dog proof so they can roam. I have a small unfenced yard, and am in a great walkable neighborhood
About: From the moment I was born, I grew up surrounded by dogs and caring for them has always been second nature. Today, I combine decades of hands on experience with holistic healing tools to offer truly unique, heart centered pet care in Ashland and other parts of the Rogue Valley. I specialize in anxious dogs and dogs who cannot be left alone. I know how stressful it can be for both pets and their humans when separation anxiety is part of the picture. That is why I build my care around calm energy, predictable routines, and constant companionship. If I need to step out and you have approved it, I will bring your dog with me. Otherwise, I will never leave them alone for longer than three hours. I am also a Reiki Master and Emotion Code Practitioner which means I do not just care for pets physically, I also support their emotional and energetic well being. I often provide gentle Reiki sessions to dogs during my stays, helping them release anxiety and find balance. If your pup loves the outdoors, I am always thrilled to take them on hikes with your permission. Fresh air and exercise are some of my favorite ways to bond with dogs. I.

Every dog is unique, and I tailor care so they feel happy, comfortable, and secure. I am a business owner and work remotely, which means I am home all day and can give your pets plenty of attention. Whether I am caring for them at your house or at mine, they will enjoy constant companionship filled with love, playtime, and calm energy. Whether your pup is in my home or yours, they will enjoy both outdoor time and quiet time indoors. I live one block from a dog park (Colver Dog Park) with separate areas for large and small dogs, which is a wonderful option for pups who like to socialize or run. If your pet prefers a quieter routine, we will enjoy walks around the neighborhood, indoor play, energy healing sessions, and relaxed time together inside. My focus is always on creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment so pets feel secure. Your pup is my priority. I give them the same love and attention I would my own, so they feel loved and safe while you are away.
About: I have years of experience caring for pets, including my own animals and those of neighbors and friends. I genuinely love all types of animals and enjoy feeding, playing, or going on walks with them. I just got my own kitty about a year ago, since I am in Ashland for school and basketball, but I have a dog, two cats, and a chicken back in my hometown! I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs, so I would love the opportunity to help take care of your pets or walk your dogs and make sure they’re happy and well cared for! I currently attend SOU as a student and women's basketball player, so I have classes throughout the week, as well as a few basketball practices/workouts. It is our off-season, however, so my basketball load is pretty light and I would most likely be gone for only 2 1/2 hours max during a few days of the week. I have a kitty who I take very good care of and love to death, so there would be no problem with your pets! I love going for walks throughout the day, so I would love to take your dog for a walk as well! I live in a clean, cozy apartment that my own cat loves. I would follow your cat’s usual routine and make sure they feel calm and cared for. I would give them all the love and attention that they need so that you feel comfortable leaving them with me:) I also live in a safe, outdoorsy neighborhood that’s great for dog walking, but I love to walk dogs anywhere. I always keep dogs on a leash and pay close attention to our surroundings to make sure they stay safe and comfortable as well!
About: My name is Robyn. I’m energetic, athletic, and love pets. I am looking for a flexible way to supplement my income. I have plenty of experience with dogs and have reliable transportation. I am available on short notice and will have very flexible hours in June, July, and August. I am open to sitting dogs of all shapes and sizes and can accommodate the pet’s needs by providing your pets with medication and taking your pet for a walk as well as responding to any other need that may arise.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 329 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Talent. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Talent 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.
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.
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, don’t 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Talent. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
