“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.”

About: I have cared for dogs for a decade and have always had cats. I have been a foster mom for dogs, cats, and kittens for several rescues. I have a lot of flexibility to watch your pets. Happy to walk, feed, and love on your animals, stay overnights, or keep them at my house. My partner works from home so there is an additional person to love on your animals and watch them if I step out. I have a large fenced-in back yard that's great for doggy playtime! I have indoor/outdoor cats that keep to themselves. If your animals are cat friendly they are happy to mingle, but also have plenty of space to keep them separate. I typically only watch animals from one household at a time, with exception if they're very friendly with others and everyone feels comfortable.
“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!”

About: Individual walks, Big Attention: Personalized Walks for Your Dog With over 20 years of dog care experience, I bring a real understanding of dogs to each walk. What makes my walks different: 🐾 Only your dogs get walked together. Your dog gets genuine attention, not a spot in a pack. I notice their mood, energy, and cues, every walk. 🐾 Paced to your dog, not the clock. Some days call for a slow sniff walk, letting them read every scent on the block. Other days they need to burn energy with a brisker pace. I adjust in the moment based on what your dog actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all route. 🐾 20+ years of hands-on experience. I've cared for dogs of multiple ages, breed, and temperament, from anxious rescues to high-energy puppies to easygoing seniors. That experience means I can read a dog quickly and respond calmly to whatever comes up. What you can expect: Photo/video updates from the walk GPS-tracked routes Consistent, reliable scheduling A walker who treats your dog like an individual, not a job on a list If you want a walker who slows down when your dog needs to sniff and speeds up when they need to run, let's talk about your pup. I run my business from home. My schedule is flexible. Your pup will get walks and a loving companion. Dogs are my true love and I absolutely adore spending time with them. I have a large fenced yard as well as a dedicated indoor area for pups. Your pup will be able to sit on the sofa with us and snuggle. My pup Bernie loves making friends. They will keep busy
“Liz was absolutely the best! She helped us out at the last minute when someone cancelled on us. She sent daily updates & photos which were so nice to see our kitties were doing okay while we were away. We'll definitely use her again next time we go out of town. Thanks again Liz!!”

About: I have never met a pet I didn’t love and treat like my own. I am happy to pamper, play, snuggle, walk, and watch reality TV with your fur baby! I am home most weekend and work from home every Wednesday & Friday (and every other Monday) and would LOVE to incorporate your pet into my routine. Whether it’s an early morning check, lunch break walk or after work snuggles, I’ll be there! I have the utmost respect and care for your pet and your home. I follow all directions (no matter how detailed!) and ensure you come home to your space and your pet better than you left it.
“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!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, especially dogs. Ever since I was little, I’ve spent my time learning about different breeds, their personalities, behaviors, and care needs. Because of that passion, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal body language, which helps me recognize when a pet is happy, stressed, nervous, or just wants some extra attention. I’ve also learned basic training techniques and enjoy working with animals in a positive, patient way. I even taught my cat to sit on command! I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. What makes me a perfect pet sitter is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s giving an energetic dog plenty of playtime or making sure a shy cat feels safe and comfortable, I take the time to earn their trust. I also understand how important peace of mind is for pet owners, so I make it a priority to provide reliable care and ensure every pet feels loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time to caring for pets throughout the week. This flexibility allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules, whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-in visits, evening care, or last-minute bookings. I enjoy spending my time with animals, so being able to provide reliable, attentive care isn’t just convenient for me, it’s something I genuinely look forward to every day! I always care for pets based on their individual routine and personality. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise or playtime, and lots of love and attention while respecting their comfort level. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior so I can recognize if something seems off or if they need extra care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, or training commands. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos to help you feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible by keeping their routine consistent and treating them like they’re my own.
About: Hello! I'm Lea, someone who loves and adores pets. Recent undergrad at Purdue who just relocated to Oregon. I live with a veterinarian in training, so I have constant hands on experience with my home life on how to take care of dogs. I am Cat and Dog CPR FIRST AID Certified! I've house sitted for many of dogs when I was younger, so I have much experience with dogs. I’ve also volunteered with the humane society many of times in my free time. I find it very important to care about dogs and give dogs love and attention when their owner can't at the moment. I'm willing to help in anyway with the dogs. I especially love walking and playing with dogs! My schedule is very flexible, so I am willing to work with anyone when needed. If there are any questions,comments, or concerns please feel free to contact me. With me, I will always provide excellent care for your pets. Thank you! I recently got a new job, so I am available all day on weekends and after 5pm! I also have hour breaks so I can do check ins in between. I will work with your schedule as much as possible! I have a screened balcony that ensures your pet will be safe inside at all times. My apartment is incredibly spacious so your pet will have plenty of room to run, play, and sleep at. I also have a sweet, energized kitty that will keep your fur baby company! If your pet is uncomfortable around other pets, I have a pet gate and an extra bedroom to keep Sushi away. Otherwise if I am your house I will accommodate to any of your rules or needs.
About: Hi! My name is Fayth and I’m 22. Growing up and throughout my life, I’ve cared for dogs and cats who have very different personalities and needs, including Brownie a Pomeranian-Poodle mix, June a German Shepherd, and Luckie a Gray American Shorthair. Caring for both types of animals taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s unique energy level, routine, and personality. As a full-time dental assistant, I’m dependable, patient, and detail-oriented, and I bring those qualities into every pet care experience. I love staying active and spending time outdoors, so whether your dog or cat enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having a companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to provide the same care and attention I would want for my own pets. I’m currently available part-time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! 🐾💕 I am currently working as a full-time dental assistant Monday through Thursday, and I’m looking for part-time pet care opportunities on my days off. I am available all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and I’m flexible with timing during those days. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I dedicate my weekdays to work and enjoy spending my weekends providing attentive, reliable care for animals. I prefer to provide pet care in clients’ homes, where animals can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. This helps reduce stress and allows them to stick to their normal routines, surroundings, and sense of security while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I started walking dogs for families in my neighborhood during middle school and high school, which gave me early experience caring for dogs and building trust with their owners. I also had a miniature poodle from the age of 9 until 23, and caring for him was a big part of my life. I’m familiar with the commitment, patience, attention, and love that go into being a responsible dog owner. As a mom of three, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and responsible, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I treat every dog as an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I’m dependable, caring, and excited to meet some new furry friends in the Tualatin community. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some fresh air, or a little extra attention during the day, I’d love to help! I’m available Monday through Friday with a flexible schedule, ready to give your best friend some extra love, attention, and exercise while you’re at work or away on vacation! As a mom, my days start early, so I’m no stranger to early mornings and keeping a consistent routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule, whether that means a morning walk, a midday potty break, some playtime, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I want to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re gone. I’ll treat your home and your furry family member with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. My goal is to make your day a little easier and your dog’s day a little happier! 🐾 As a mom of three, my apartment isn’t set up to accommodate additional pets, so I currently offer care in my clients’ homes rather than boarding in my own. I’m very active and enjoy getting outside for walks throughout the Tualatin community. I’d love to take your pup along for some fresh air, exercise, and a little adventure! When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routines and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home and with your furry family members. I’ll always treat both with care and respect. My goal is to make being away a little easier for you and your pet!
About: I have boarded both cat and dogs. I am available for daycare and drop in visits. I speak cat and I communicate very well with dogs too.

I can administer meds and I can do brushing, feeding, fetching, walking, bathing of animals if necessary and lots of tlc. I haven't found an animal that I haven't loved. I do have transportation to take them to parks and other places that they need to go to. My clients all say that I have truly made a very large difference in their pets lives as well as their own. I also do basice training of dogs. Several of my clients have given me keys to their homes. I'm retired and my schedule is pretty flexible.

About: Have been a pet family for many years. Beauty was a rescue from a dump in Hawaii and was the best dog and great experience! I am retired, currently pet-less and looking for satisfying ways to fill my day. I have the time and energy to care for your pets. Will care for your pets in your home as I am renting and can’t have them here. Will keep their routines as normal as possible and update you with photos.

About: I have taken care of medium-sized dogs all of my life, and friends and family have used me to take care of theirs as well. I am very comfortable taking care of animals including larger breeds as well, I have also worked and owned reptiles (lizards)! I’m currently a college student, so working weekends is amazing for me so I can give your pet all the attention it needs! When I am home, most of my time goes to taking care of my own animals as well. I have a fenced in yard with two Aussies and they get enrichment for at least an hour a day plus walks. They get fed twice daily as well.
“Hailey did a wonderful job watching my pet bird! She's very sweet, reliable, communicated with me everyday, and I came home to a happy bird and tidy house couldn't be more thrilled. Highly recommend and will be booking her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tigard
Melanie was amazing! She came to help Otie on short notice on Halloween and arrived right away. She was so warm and welcoming with him, and they became fast friends. She sent me photo and video updates, and Otie even gave her several kisses—which he usually saves for me and his dad! I’m especially grateful that Melanie stayed the full hour to make sure Otie ate a complete meal after he’d thrown up bile on an empty stomach. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine care put me at ease. I’m so thankful she was there for him, and I would absolutely recommend her!

Would highly recommend Matthew. He was great with communication and went above and beyond. Even though it was his first time caring for pet rats, he did such a wonderful job and made sure that he understood exactly what they needed. He was very attentive and made us feel at ease while we were away on a family trip. Would definitely use him again 😊

Our pups are always so excited to see their sitters! And they roll with the sheer volume of happy that comes with giant breed dogs. Caring and dog savvy, highly recommend. Fast and clear communication. Flexible and receptive to scheduling changes and a great sense of humor makes it fun to navigate the challenges of traveling and being confident our pets are in capable caring hands

Alyssa is fabulous! She did drop in visits while I was out for long days for a convention. The dogs had a great time. I appreciate Alyssa's attention to detail, her understanding of dog behavior and her gift to get to know each pet as an individual. Highly recommend!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Tigard is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $50 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.
As of November 2026, there are 6,441 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Tigard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
