“Sydney is great. Our cat Elsa is 19 and very shy. Sydney has made a great effort to get to know here and make her comfortable during their visits. No other sitter has gone as far. Sydney is very much appreciated here.”
About: While I don't currently have a dog of my own, I grew up with a golden retriever, Charlotte, and know what it takes to keep a dog happy, healthy, and well cared for — including the never-ending battle with fur (I've vacuumed my fair share!). That experience taught me just how important regular grooming is, and I'm happy to help keep your pup brushed and looking their best. I can administer medication, whether it's a pill, liquid, or topical treatment, so your dog's health needs are always taken care of. Daily walks and playtime are my favorite part of dog care — I need the exercise just as much as your dog does! Whether it's a leisurely stroll, a brisk walk, or an energetic round of fetch, I'm happy to match your dog's energy and keep them active and engaged. I can't wait for the chance to give your fur baby the attention, exercise, and love they deserve while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my life because my schedule is extremely flexible. I'm available both weekdays and weekends, so you won't have to worry about finding coverage no matter when you need it. I can also accommodate same-day requests, so if something comes up unexpectedly, I'm ready to step in. Whether you need a quick daily visit, ongoing walks throughout the week, or an overnight stay while you're traveling, I have the time and availability to make it work. Your pet's routine and comfort are my priority, and my flexible schedule means I can adapt to whatever they need. I love caring for pets in the place they feel most comfortable — their own home. I know that pets thrive on routine and familiarity, so rather than disrupting their environment, I come to them, keeping their space, schedule, and surroundings as consistent as possible. I'm dependable, so you can count on me to show up exactly when I say I will, every time. I'm also detail oriented, which means I pay close attention to your instructions, your pet's habits, and anything specific that helps them feel safe. Above all, I'm respectful of both your pet and your home. I treat your space with the same care and consideration I'd want for my own, and I make sure your pet gets the attention, comfort, and companionship they need while you're away.
“Meagan is a fantastic sitter! I felt very secure with my kitties under her care 😸 I could see how well they were cared for through all of the wonderful photos she took. I definitely recommend her services :)”
“Danielle took great care of Eva and Johnny while I was out of town. She was communicative and showed that my cats were in great hands. She was also great at giving action shots during check-ins. I would highly recommend booking her as a sitter if you get the chance!”
“Susan & Ian did great with my two cats and my apartment while I was away from home for a couple of weeks. They followed my written instructions perfectly and my cats did not seem attention-deprived when I returned home. Highly recommend them!”
“Amy B is the best !! She is so patience and kind with my dog Molly that has special needs. I felt so safe and comfortable when I went out of town . I would take Amy over ,over Thank You Amy !!!”
About: I provide reliable, personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine. I have experience with puppies who need structure and senior pets who need patience and gentle care. I follow detailed instructions closely, including meds and feeding schedules. What sets me apart is the attention and time I give, pets aren’t just checked on, they’re cared for and kept comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to stay consistent with walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, whether that’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening care. Because I prioritize time and flexibility, I’m able to give pets reliable attention and keep their routines steady and stress free while you’re away. I currently offer care in my client’s home only, not boarding in my own home. This allows pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. For walks and check-ins, I make sure pets get exercise, attention, and any care they need like feeding or medications. For overnight stays, I provide consistent companionship, follow their usual schedule, and keep their space clean and calm. I always stick closely to owner instructions and give updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have extensive experience working with a variety of dietary and medical needs of cats and dogs. While serving past clients I have worked with senior dogs and cats needing special food prep, and arthritis mobility assistance. With past clients I have administered oral and injected medications while following proper safety standards. My schedule is very flexible, and can fit a variety of care needs. Feel free to message me, and we can work something out. When I'm not taking my own pet out for adventures, I'd love to care for your fur babies! I am detail oriented, and have experience working with escape-prone pets, and keeping them safe. I love working with pets in clean environments, and believe that your pets deserve only the best care.
“This is the second time I've asked Lucinda to watch my three fur babies. I'm impressed with the quality of care and Lucinda's commitment and communication style. I would highly recommend her. I look forward to working with her again.”
“My sweet -5 mo old pup felt readily comfortable with Andi. I was home sick one day, and was able to see first hand how excited my dog was to see her. Highly recommend!”
“Honestly the best experience I could have asked for and more! Heather did drop ins for my two doodles, and we already have another scheduled with her. She is so incredibly thorough, very responsive, sent lots of pictures and videos and I know Oliver and Bailey loved her! My husband and I have found it hard to trust someone with our dogs, but Heather made it so easy to. Can’t recommend her enough and will continue trusting her. 😊”
“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!”
“Taylor helped me on a pinch and took great care of my precious doodle on short notice. She had excellent communication and even gave him some food after his walk. Highly recommend.”
“Ganna was so wonderful with our new puppy! She sent photos and updates and took such good care of our dog. We have a puppy and were anxious to leave her for the first time, and Ganna made us feel at ease. She’s the best!”
“Rie was so great with our energetic gal! She made sure to give her physical exercise, love and mental stimulation. Her check in's and reporting was thorough and reassuring to a worrisome dog-mom 😊 Thanks for taking such great care of Canella 🙌”
About: I have been the designated dog sitter for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 10 years old. I have always adored and loved animals since I was young. I would consider myself lucky to have you trust me with a precious, 4-legged member of your family. I am patient, attentive, and treat every furry angel as if they were my own. I have had experience caring for younger to senior pups- so any walk from energetic zoomies to slow & steady sniff adventures is up my alley :) I am new to the Portland area, so I currently have some free time & flexibility to care for some pups while I look for a work position in my field of study. My “rates” on here aren’t set in stone, so I’d be happy to discuss accommodating pricing if interested in my services! Any preferred accommodations or requests you have in order to make caring for your puppy easier on them, I will gladly do. I know leaving your precious babe with someone new may be a bit of an adjustment, so I will do all in my power to put nerves at ease with text/ picture updates!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tigard
Brayden was wonderful with our pups! You could tell he genuinely cared about them and made the most of each of their hour-long drop-in visits. He was great about communicating with us and always sent updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pups were completely conked out after their visits, so we knew they had gotten plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment. We also had the chance to meet Sara beforehand, and both she and Brayden were great to work with. We would absolutely book with them again!
Haley really saved the day with my last minute request! She did an awesome job with my 2 pups. She came on time, stayed the entire time requested, was flexible when timing modifications were necessary and followed all my instructions. She was kind & thoughtful with the pups, She also gave me frequent updates and lots of photos every day! So grateful! Would definitely recommend her. And will call her again next time.
Working with Michelle was great, she's very kind and her love for dogs is exactly what you want when asking someone to take care of your dog while you're away. She was on time as per the schedule for our dog and sent wonderful update pictures. You could see from the pictures that our pupper had a wonderful time and trusted Michelle. I highly recommend her services!
Kelsey did an amazing job with my dog! I was out of town for 5 days and needed a sitter to come let my dog Belle out a couple times each day. Kelsey stayed in great communication throughout the whole time and Belle LOVED her! Kelsey did everything that was needed plus she even tidied up each visit! I will definitely be using Kelsey again the next time I need a sitter!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Tigard 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 .

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
