“Bryanna was absolutely wonderful with our fur babies! We got updates regularly and lots of photos. We really appreciated that she asked questions when needed instead of assuming or winging it, and she really put the needs of our pets first. We feel confident leaving the fur babies in her hands and we will be rebooking with her very soon!”
“Al was great! They were super communicative - gave daily updates with pictures and responded quickly whenever I reached out. Our house looked great when we got home. Al even picked up the poop in the backyard when the lawn service came (above and beyond the call of duty!). We would have Al again in a minute!”
“I’ve used Khahae a couple times now and am happy with her level of care. I was very surprised to see that not only did she keep my house clean, she also organized and cleaned up a few closets and cabinets. She sent me many pictures and videos throughout my trip and seemed to take great care of my 3 cats. She’s always very responsive and easy to communicate with.”
“We rebooked Heather to care for Buddy over 9 days. She did a wonderful job communicating with us throughout the day and night, sending pictures and multiple updates. We came home to a super clean home and a very happy dog. We will be happy to book Heather again next time we are heading out of town!”
“Oh boy what a great experience ! Craig was amazing for us. A very good communicator, super personable, and a natural with the dogs. Echo and Shadow can be troublesome, but they took to Craig right from the start. Craig kept us informed , sent us pictures, and kept our house as clean as could be. I think it was cleaner when we got home than when we left. Thank you kind sir, we plan on using you for the foreseeable future !!!”
“Addy always does a great job with our pups on walks and this is her second time staying with them overnight. She’s a great communicator and our home is always kept tidy, maybe even cleaner than when we left! Thank you for taking great care of our home and our boys. We will definitely work with Addy again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with lots of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve previously walked dogs through Rover, cared for dogs in my own home, and grown up around family pets. I also raised my own cat from a kitten, which taught me just how much love and attention our furry friends need <3 🩷 PLEASE read. I have a very cute and cozy home, however, it is small. Therefore, in terms of house sitting, I can only accommodate SMALL dogs or medium (if you feel comfortable with your pup staying in a small home). The smaller the house, the more the love though 🩷 I’m doing pet care full time, so I can dedicate my time and attention to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved! Whether we’re going on walks, spending time playing, or just enjoying some cuddles, I’ll ensure every pet in my care to feel right at home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! 🐾💕 I’m doing pet care full-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! I’m able to plan my day around their routines, if that means walks, drop ins, feeding, or keeping them company. I’ll ensure your pets get the attention they deserve while you’re away. 🐾 Please note (it’s listed in my bio) that my home is small! I would love to care for your creature in my home, but can only accommodate small dogs. I have a cozy backyard for dogs to play and enjoy some outdoor time, along with a walkable neighborhood and Gabriel Park and Metzger Park nearby for walks and exploring! I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and tailor our time together to their personality and needs.
“Lynden was wonderful and my pets were very happy when I got home. I especially appreciated that she took Kirby for a run… Kirby loves to run, and I am sure Lynden was faster than me. Definitely will have her back!”
“Alicia provided amazing in home care for my 2 dogs. She is very professional, friendly and seems to genuinely love spending time engaging and caring for dogs. She proactively shared daily updates of their adventures and included some incredible photos.”
“Jordan is literally amazing! She did so well with our fur babies! They loved her. Came home to a spotless house happy dogs and I couldn’t have been more pleased! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Anastasiya took such good care of our boy while we were out of town! She was super communicative and absolutely set our minds at ease. Would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”
“Patrick was happy and relaxed when I got home from my trip. He seemed comfortable and well cared for. Sophia left my home clean and in great shape. She sent regular updates and was very responsive to messages. She was reliable, trustworthy and professional and I would definitely use her again!”
“Susan is an exceptional dog sitter, and I can't recommend her highly enough! When I found myself needing a sitter on very short notice, she was a lifesaver. Not only did she agree to watch my two dogs, but she did so with a level of care and professionalism that completely put my mind at ease. She seamlessly integrated into my dogs established routines, ensuring they got their regular walks and daily trips to the dog park. Throughout my time away, she sent me frequent pictures and updates, which I truly appreciated. It was clear from her messages and the photos that my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for. What stands out most is the personal connection she made with them. She didn't just watch my dogs, she cuddled with them and made them feel loved. When I returned home, they were both completely relaxed and content, which reflected the comfortable and happy environment she created for them. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is reliable, loving, and will treat your pets like her own, Susan is the perfect choice!”
“Emma did a great job watching my pup! I’m always a little nervous leaving him with someone new and trusting someone in my home, but she made the whole experience feel easy and comfortable. She kept me updated, took great care of him, and left the place spotless. I’ll definitely be using her again for future sits!”
“Our three cats were happy and the garden and house were well cared for. Danielle was easy to communicate with. I would definitely call on her again when I have the need for a house sitter.”
“Brayden and Sara were fantastic to work with. They house sat for us for about a week while we were out of town, caring for our three dogs. We’ll be the first to admit our pups aren’t the easiest crew, but Brayden and Sara went out of their way beforehand to learn their routines, quirks, and needs so everything would run smoothly. When a few small issues came up during the stay — which we’d anticipated, knowing our dogs, they let us know right away and handled everything calmly and competently. We never once felt like we had to manage things from afar, and it was a relief to come home to three happy, well cared for dogs and a house left in great shape. We’d absolutely book them again and highly recommend them to anyone with a full house of pets.”
“Jamie is hands down the best sitter we’ve had. He took excellent of my senior, arthritic, anxious pit bull and 4 ducks. He asked thorough, conscientious questions about their care which showed me how much he really cares. My dog Annie has difficulty walking long distances and Jamie was incredibly patient and kind with her. He also left our house extremely clean. Thank you, Jamie!”
“Tayler was amazing! Both of my boys warmed right up to her. She sent video and photo updates every day, sometimes more than once a day. I appreciated knowing my dogs were comfortable around her and were well taken care of. I’d definitely book with Tayler again in the future and would definitely recommend her to others as well.”

Iliana stayed at my home with my 2 mini Aussies for 2 weeks. She was really great and attentive with the dogs. Took them in many walks and left my home spotless. She was wonderful at communication and sent me many photos and updates on them. I will definitely be calling on her in the future when I need to leave town. A+++
We’re so happy with our first house-sitting experience with Amelia! She was responsible, caring, and attentive, and we really appreciated the love and care she gave Pochi. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind and helped us relax and enjoy our trip knowing Pochi was in good hands. She also took wonderful care of our home. We’re so grateful to have found someone we feel comfortable trusting with both Pochi and our house. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her!
Patrick was happy and relaxed when I got home from my trip. He seemed comfortable and well cared for. Sophia left my home clean and in great shape. She sent regular updates and was very responsive to messages. She was reliable, trustworthy and professional and I would definitely use her again!
Matthew was such a gift for our for babies & our peace of mind. He took such great care of all three of our animals while we were out of country for weeks. And sent us daily updates and pictures that were so detailed. He was able to manage the care of our geriatric dog including his medication, win over our super skittish rescue cat, and even our bunny loves him. He took such great care of our house when we returned everything was clean & well maintained. He took our dog on such reliable, long walks that one of our neighbors messaged us. Asking us who our new caretaker was because they could see how great of a job he does. We came home to well adjusted happy animals. I cant reccomend him enough.
We rebooked Heather to care for Buddy over 9 days. She did a wonderful job communicating with us throughout the day and night, sending pictures and multiple updates. We came home to a super clean home and a very happy dog. We will be happy to book Heather again next time we are heading out of town!
This was Aurora’s second time pup sitting for us and she was absolutely amazing!! Our poor baby Cole broke his toe right before we had to leave on a trip and Aurora was a life saver. She took the best care of him, making sure he didn’t take off his splint, wore his cone and she even played music to help him calm and ensuring he took his meds on time (he’s a smart boy and kept spitting them out, even refusing treats). She kept us updated the whole time and we were able to actually enjoy our vacation, instead of worrying about if our pups were okay. It was even harder to watch him this time without being able to let him play or run. We really appreciate all the care Aurora took and will be using her for all our vacations. It’s been hard to find people we trust to watch our babies but we finally have!
Jessica is AWESOME! She took great care of our little guy Chewie, provided regular updates and great pictures. They did crafts together, watched Yellowstone and got lots of great walks and treats! She left our place clean and tidy as well as leaving us some yummy human treats 😊. We will for sure use Jessica again and highly recommend her to care for your special family members!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Tigard is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $89 per night. 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 4,614 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tigard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Tigard walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Tigard maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tigard. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
