About: In my opinion pets are the best friends. I love them more than people. They are sources of endless unconditional love and devotion, affection and happiness. Let's take care of them better. They deserve that. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. It would be a pleasure for me to help you to take care of them. I always keep an eye on them. Treat them like they are a babies. No worries. I have a huge experience of taking care of pets I can meet all their needs.
About: I have loved animals my entire life. I grew up with Samoyeds (fluffy white sled dogs) and was so happy when I was able to get one of my own 13 years ago, and since then I have also adopted a Heeler mix. My dogs are members of my family, and I will treat your pets the same way. I love taking dogs out to all the amazing parks and trails in the area. And when I am home or doing a drop-in, I'm happy to play and keep your pets company while you are away, as well as make sure they are fed and have enough water. If there are any special needs or requests, please just let me know. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!
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!)
“Michelline took such good care of my girl (last minute) while I was having a busy work weekend. She walked her and gave her the cup of food I left and even brought my delivery box inside.”
About: I have over 10 years experience both professionally and privately with dogs and other animals. I see pets as part of the family and am dedicated to their nurturing care. I am quite physically fit and will run with your dog if you'd like. I also can take care of cats or small animals if needed. I have worked for dog hotels, pet stores and personally house/pet sat for people. I have volunteered at shelters and rescues and can administer medications if needed! I love spending time with animals and would never leave one in a bad situation! I can deal with any size of dog and am experienced at reading temperaments. I am extremely reliable and use honest as my policy for life. Your pet is in caring and experienced hands with me :)
“Megan has been a regular dog walker for a couple of years. She’s thoughtful about making sure B gets his coat if it’s cold or stays in the shade if it’s hot, and is always respectful of property. Highly recommend!”
“Big thank you to Alexis and Jacob for helping get Milly on a regular walking program!! Appreciate the communication and the trust building with Milly. Milly looks forward to many more walks!”
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.
“Helped me out in a last minute request! My pup was so settled after his walks, I knew they had a good time and quality exercise. Also got to meet her dog, very gentle and sweet. 10/10”
About: I sent two kids off to college this fall and I am looking to pick up some side work with my extra time. I have a five year-old English yellow lab and a rescue two year-old orange tabby cat. I regularly take care of pets for my friends and neighbors. I have a flexible schedule, so I can be very attentive to your animal. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available during the day, evenings, and weekends as well. I have ample time to play with and take care of your animal. I have a large fenced backyard. I have a five year-old English yellow lab and a two year-old orange tabby rescue cat. I am able to separate my pets from yours or they are more than welcome to play together. I am able to crate your pet, if needed.
“Alexis was a gem, she took great care of our cat and dog and sent us amazing photos of their time together. We can tell our pets loved spending their time with her and that’s the most important thing!”
“I have a resource-guarding, difficult dog that k did a wonderful job looking after for 2-plus weeks. She is reliable and responsible and I will be using her again in the future. You should too!”
“Liz is great with my 🐶, even with short notice she was able to accommodate a walk for poppie, she always updates me on how my 🐕🦺 is doing and sends pictures of my 🐕🦺on their walk. Thank you Liz😀”
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!
“Ron is fantastic with our highly energetic Corgi! He's reliable and incredibly patient, and he never seems phased by his energy. You can tell Ron puts his whole heart into it. He genuinely cares about our dog's wellbeing. Our dog Kiyo absolutely adores the walks and gets so excited whenever he sees him. We've noticed a real difference in his mood and energy levels since we started using Ron, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tigard
Tyran recently met and began walking our sweet, adorable German Shepherd. Victoria connected with Tyran immediately, responding to his warm, loving, gentle demeanor. She returned from their hour-long adventure happy, wagging, and contentedly tired! She's already looking out the window for him to return for another excursion! Our other dog, Charlie - Victoria's beloved companion - passed away a few months ago, leaving her deeply melancholy. We are grateful to Tyran for being Victoria's weekly companion to give her love and attention, lift her spirits, and take her on new and fascinating journeys!
Haley has been a perfect fit for our 12 year old lab. Haley made sure she got her exercise but also allowed her to walk and smell at her pace. Haley was ever mindful of the pavement temp and ensured she was safe and did not get over heated. The constant communication, picture and videos were wonderful. Haley is now our go to dog walker and we would highly recommend her. We could not be happier.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Tigard. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
