“Gretchen was amazing! We have four kitties so it can be a challenge to keep up with feeding, water, playtime, litter boxes, etc. but Gretchen took excellent care of our girls. She was kind, attentive, and caring during her visits. She is excellent at communication and very adaptable. If you’re searching for someone who can care for your fur babies and put your mind at ease while you’re away, Gretchen is the best!”
“Samantha did great with both my kitties, who are opposite ends of the personality spectrum: reserved and independent and menace. They were both happy and cared for while we were gone”
About: I am an animal person who has been a pet parent to many cats, large dogs, and small birds. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and activity and socialization needs. From sassy corgis to excitable labradoodle puppies, I'm sure your fur baby and I will get along wonderfully. I also have experience caring for senior pets with specialized medication and dietary needs, and maintaining consistent, disciplined training regimens for puppies learning the ropes, including clicker and nonverbal command training. While I have only owned small birds myself, I am comfortable around larger birds and am confident preparing chop, monitoring fly time, supporting preening, and maintaining training sessions. I also have experience administering oral medication to small birds. The company I previously worked for recently downsized, so while I am on the job search I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate you and your furry (or feathered) friend's needs! The safety and well-being of your pet is my top priority. This means that in addition to providing photos and updates of your pet while you are away, I will be proactive in contacting you if anything concerning arises. If you have cats, this means I won't let them outside unless it is a secured space. I also require the information for both your primary and preferred emergency vet for all pets. (I have never needed to contact someone's vet while pet-sitting, but I prefer to always be prepared!)
“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter, let alone using Rover. We had considered hiring two other sitters previously, but decided against it because of poor communication or no shows. We found Brittaney and it was immediately a breath of fresh air. 🙏 She responded quickly, we were able to book with her last minute, she communicated in friendly, caring, and professional manner. While we were away, she sent us all kinds of pictures, spent time really trying to bond with our cats, and truly made us feel like they were in great hands. Not only is Brittaney excellent at what she does, but you can truly tell she has a passion for loving animals. I’d very much hire Brittaney again, and plan on it when the need arises. 🙏🙏”
“Khahae was wonderful during her stay with our cat Bowser! We received multiple video updates daily and could tell Bowser was very happy with all his rolling around and purrs. She went above and beyond by washing her own sheets and towels, as well as keeping our kitchen and house clean. We were grateful to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing Bowser was being well taken care of. Will definitely be keeping Khahae in mind for our next trip!”
“Maia did an excellent job of caring for my 3 cats while I was out of town! They look just as happy as when I left them. I will definitely be hiring Maia again!”
“Sophia came quickly after request was sent to meet our pups. Then came for a drop-in, as requested. She was great with the dogs and did all she said she’d do. We appreciate the help very much. Will reach out again!”
About: I’ve always been the person who stops to pet every dog or cat I see around the neighborhood, so getting to spend more time with animals is pretty much my idea of a good day. 🐾 I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including working as a Kennel Attendant at VCA Rock Creek Hospital, walking dogs for a local dog-walking company, and caring for my own senior dog from the Humane Society, Mr Benny. After Benny passed away about a year ago, I still had so much love to give to animals! So I started volunteering with Animal Aid, where I help care for dogs and cats in need of homes. I’d love to give you an extra hand with your furry friend next. I’ve worked with dogs of all different ages, energy levels, and breeds, and I’m comfortable administering medication when needed. But honestly, one of my favorite parts of pet care is getting to know each animal’s personality—and getting to know their person, too. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company, or your pet just needs someone to give them a little extra love while you’re away, I’d be excited to help! I currently work a typical full-time schedule, so my availability is primarily on weekends in the afternoons and evenings. I’m happy to coordinate ahead of time to find a schedule that works well for both you and your pet. I only offer house visits, so I won’t be watching pets in my own home. I think pets are usually happiest staying in their own space, and I’m happy to come to them! I’ll follow your care instructions, make sure everything is secure before I leave, and send updates or photos if you’d like. I’m currently available for house visits during the times and within the radius listed on my profile.
“Selena is beloved by my older cat, Jeff. She caught all the details of his care routine and used great discretion of when to add in extra support as needed when she did drop-in visits with him over the holidays. Even when he had an upset stomach, she took care of him and the mess in a professional and compassionate way. I appreciate her kindness, level of detail in her care, and her thorough communication.”
“Kirsten is super reliable, down to earth, professional and over all amazing! Our kitties LOVE her and the peace of mind knowing they are in good hands while we travel is HUGE. We can actually enjoy our vacations because we know our babies will be fine, get lots of love, any meds, treats, etc. We are so grateful to have her found her through Rover!”
“Sara took very good care of my kitty. She treated him like her own and went far above what was required of her. You will not go wrong with her, there is no one else I would trust with my fur baby.”
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. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, drop-in visit, fresh food and water, litter box cleaning, playtime, or overnight care while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care that gives you peace of mind while you’re away and keeps your pet happy in their familiar environment. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and pride myself on being responsible, communicative, and respectful of your home. I’ll treat your pets with the same kindness, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a Senior IT Manager that works remotely Monday-Friday, I have incredible flexibility. I simply need reliable internet to work anywhere in the United States. I have experience caring for dogs that have full free range of the house and all furniture to those who have specific boundaries that need to be followed. I’m very comfortable abiding by all house rules within any setting. This loosely applies to cats who often only abide by their own rules! Haha
“Lynden was an amazing sitter for my two cats while I was away! She was very communicative and gave me regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. She took great care of my cats. I’ll definitely book her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Marc is such an excellent pet sitter. I felt very comfortable and safe leaving my two fur-kiddos in Marc's care. Both my cats are very shy around strangers, but Marc was able to make a connection with them very quickly. I feel very lucky to have found Marc!”
“Candice did a great job caring for our shy cat. She asked questions as needed, but otherwise was timely and thoughtful in her feeding and care of our little friend. Highly recommend!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Tigard
Stacy was great! Our cat loved her, she provided us with a couple daily updates, and sent us pics every time. It was our first long trip away from our cat, and Stacy gave us great peace of mind the entire time. We’ll definitely ask her to come back, and we can’t recommend Stacy enough!
We booked Kristen on short notice after our sitter canceled on us. Oliver (our cat) is diabetic, so that comes with some additional responsibilities for a cat sitter. Kristen was so communicative and on top of everything for care. She asked questions to make sure she understood what to do. She also sent so many pictures and gave Oliver lots of cuddles. Highly recommend due to her friendly demeanor, reliability, and responsiveness!
Jessica was amazing!! I booked Jessica very last minute and she was responsive and listened to all my needs for my cat with separation anxiety who takes medications. Jessica send tons of photos and let me know how each visit went. I will definitely book with Jessica again :)
Brianna is such a wonderful pet-sitter and person to have check on your animals!!! Genuinely could not say enough good things about our experience. She went above and beyond to make sure our senior cat & chickens were well taken care of. Thank you Bri for the peace of mind while we were out of town!
Hannah did a great job taking care of both my cats, including one nearly 14 year old and one one year old cat. The older one requires medication twice a day. I was given detailed updates and many pictures from each check-in. The cats looked really happy, and the house was really clean when I came home (9 day job, two visits each day). I am fortunate to find her, and hope to hire to her again!
Alyssa has watched our kitty a few times now and has been so great every time. She is very in tune with his mood each time she comes over and responds accordingly to give him the care he needs each day (he can be a moody boy). She sends the best updates and the best photos after every visit.
I went on a long trip for 2.5 weeks and Rylie did an amazing job communicating with me during the entire trip! My cat was in good hands with her care and attention to detail and I’m very impressed with her services. Would highly recommend to anyone if you’re needing a pet sitter!
Camille was an awesome cat sitter! She went above and beyond to encourage our shy but friendly girl to come out and spend time with her. She followed our care instructions exactly and provided daily updates and photos. I could tell that she genuinely cared about our cat Phoebe and enjoyed spending time with her. I would absolutely book Camille again in a heartbeat!
Dannielle was absolutely incredible with our two cats while we were away for Labor Day Weekend! We have a 15 year old cat who has several daily medications (both oral and topical) and Dannielle administered all of them with no issues! Not only that, but she gave her a “breakfast in bed” experience so she could eat where she was sitting comfortably. Dannielle played with our 1 year old cat, even giving her some delicious silvervine. We got so many pictures and videos of our babies, which was the highlight of our evenings while we were gone. Truly cannot recommend Dannielle enough, incredible sitter!!
Brittaney is such a kind, attentive, and caring pet sitter. She handled my fur babies with distinctly different needs and play styles and made sure they both felt loved and cared for in the way that they prefer and sent pictures and videos of their adventures. I would recommend Brittaney for anyone looking for a true animal lover to watch over their fur babies.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Tigard is $31 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $49 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
