“Brandy is awesome! She is very communicative, sends pictures, and even cleaned up after my kittens’ messes when they were digging in my plants. She is my go-to sitter!”
“She did an excellent job caring for our elderly critters with medication needs, and an over-enthusiastic new-to-us mini bull terrier while we were away! Great experience, very trustworthy.”
“Emily is so great with our dogs and was recently so patient with us too when we made her life harder by misplacing the hidden key! She went and picked up another key from a friend and was able to care for our dogs. She went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more grateful!!”
“Did a great job, came by to meet Bailey who was pretty shy at first. Everything seems to have gone well and according to all the pictures we received Bailey was having a lot of fun with the attention.”
About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!
About: Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I've had cats since birth, cared for large dogs for the past 10 years, and have owned snakes and other reptiles for more than 20 years. This experience has given me a great understanding of the unique needs, personalities, and behaviors of many different types of pets. One of my greatest strengths is building trust quickly with animals. I take the time to meet each pet where they are, learn their preferences, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pet is full of zoomies, or prefers to hide under the bed, I adapt my approach to what works best for them. I understand that pets are family - they are for me too. I can't imagine my life without my pups, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. Whether you need pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, or just plain companionship while you're away, you can feel confident knowing your beloved pet is in caring and experienced hands. I am a teacher and am currently off for the summers so my hours are flexible. During the school year I can help weekends and evenings. I follow your instructions and care plans as you know what’s best for your pet. My goal is for your animals to feel that while they miss you, their routine and schedule has remained the same so they feel safe and loved.
About: I have raised three pets of my own, one dog and two cats as well as being raised with family pets. I have plenty of experience taking care of my family and friend’s pets. I am comfortable with cats, dogs, or really any animal. I can meet your pet where they’re at with energy levels, personalities and their quirks. I am able to administer medication if needed. I am in school and work part time but I am free to check-in or walk your pet around those obligations. I have availability almost every afternoon/evening and can do earlier in the morning depending on the day. I can check in on your pet as much as they need, make sure they are fed and watered. If you have cats I can clean litter boxes for them. If you have dogs I can take them out for potty breaks and walks.
“Vanessa was amazing with my chinchillas! I regularly received updates and knew they were in good hands while I was gone. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter for all animals, but especially for small mammals.”
“Alyssa went above and beyond what we asked her to do. She was flexible and accommodating. She was available on short notice, wonderful with our pets and respectful of our home. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in need of care for their animals.”
“Whitney did an incredible job taking care of our boys. Very thorough, followed all instructions and checked in regularly. Very dependable - would definitely book again.”
“Brianna was lovely! She took the time to meet my cat before confirming the booking and was very agreeable to all my many specific requests. I really appreciated that she was gentle and patient with my cat when she was shy and anxious about being around someone new. I highly recommend booking with Brianna! :)”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and though I haven’t recently because of getting a job, I used to take care of dogs in the neighborhood. They trusted me to know what their dog needs and to love them I have my own cat named Dobby and everyday I feed him, care for him, and make sure all of his needs are met. I also make sure he is healthy and happy. I will make sure I ready instructions for your fur baby carefully to make sure no miscommunications happen. I will devote my time to making sure your pet is well cared for
“Thank you, thank you! Because of you I was able to go out of town for a much needed day trip to visit my daughters and an aunt without the worry of having to rush home to take care of Zeus. It’s been a very stressful few weeks. You’ve been great to work with and hope to call on you again.”
About: I have taken care of multiple types of animals, I started pet sitting for neighbors around the age of 7. I have a deep love for all animals including reptiles, birds, and spiders! Im in school for psychology, so I have a fairly open schedule and I normally spend a lot of time outdoors anyway and i love to take dogs on walks I am offering multiple walks, feedings, and checkins as needed. I spend a lot of time with my pets, I even have a harness and take my cat on hikes. I have a deep love for animals and I prefer to spend my time with them
About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs since I was in middle school, currently have my own 8 year old pitty girl and we have 2 other doggy roommates. I have experience with cats as well as I have many friends with cat that I’ve cared for :) I hope to provide comfort and care to your furry pal(s) ❤️ I work as a bartender in Philomath and Corvallis but pretty active and willing to drive around as I have friends and family from Eugene to Portland to the coast! Weekends are pretty open for me as well for checking in on your pet or walking them! I love to create a relationship with new furry friends that will allow them to gauge how they feel about me and hopefully I can earn their trust. I will ensure not to force them to do anything they don’t want and provide them with love and care as I would my own pets ❤️
About: I have been trusted with pet and house care since I was around 10 years old, I truly treat every animal I watch as my own. I am comfortable with caring for multiple pets at a time and have experience caring for newborn kittens with health complications, senior animals, and special needs animals. I will typically build my days around pet care. My only time constraints at the time are two classes this upcoming fall term (starts around September 20th). I will have lots of time to dedicate to your fur babies. I am happy to follow the routines, instructions, and typical practices for your animal(s) in your home. I always make an effort to respect the space, communicate clearly and often, and provide care you can trust.
“Thor does a great job stopping by and checking on my cat! I made a mistake with some of the dates, and he was really nice and understanding about it. I will definitely keep using his services!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tangent
Emily was amazing! This was the second time she’s watched our fur babies, and we always feel so comfortable leaving them in her care. She helped us out last minute, communicated really well the whole time, and even had an unexpected emergency come up but still made sure our pets were taken care of. She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We came home to happy pets and had great peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

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 Tangent 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 Tangent. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
