“Annalei watched our pets (2 dogs 1 cat) again for a long vacation and she was as amazing as ever. She takes great care of everyone and the house: sends pictures, gives walks, administers medication, etc. We would highly recommend her for whatever your needs are!”
“Adriana did an amazing job watching over our two anxious/active pups on a recent long weekend trip. She gave great updates each day and dealt with all their quirkiness with ease 🙂 Would definitely recommend, and absolutely have her stay with our doggos anytime!”
“Once again, Susan was fantastic with our Stella. The communication was clear and pictures she sent were great! We always feel comfortable leaving our pets with Susan!!”
“Such a nurturing dog-lover. Veronica was fabulous with my rambunctious pittie mix and my very shy JRT/Chihuahua mix. They both adored her (which was evidenced by the little one letting her take him for a walk!). Thank you so much, Veronica.”
“Amazing!! My pets truely looked happy and Jennifer and Zeke were amazing with them. They were troopers even though we are in the middle of remodeling the kitchen. Will ask them again in the future to care for our fur babies!!”
“FANTASTIC 🎉 Lucinda provided such amazing care for my 2 puppers. Lucinda stay at my home for a week and cared for my puppers. I felt so comfortable and was able to enjoy my vacation. She communicated daily with updates and photos. I felt such ease knowing that my babies were getting their medicine and all the cuddles while I was away. As an added bonus she left my home cleaner than it was when I left for vacation.🤩”
“Michelle was fantastic with our 3 pups. She was a great communicator and kept us updated throughout her entire stay with them. She also left the house spotless when we returned home. We will definitely be using her again!”

“John is a great sitter for our four dogs. He is attentive to their needs and playful. It gave us such peace of mind knowing that our dogs are well taken care of while away. He also helped us watered our house plants and tomatoes during the recent heatwaves. In fact, we are requesting his assistance again for our long travel next week. We highly recommend John to any pawrents needing caregiver!”
“Malissa is amazing! She showed up to our meet-and-greet beforehand with an iPad to take copious notes. It was amazing! It’s clear she really cares and takes her job seriously. And our dog loved her and all the love and attention she gives (especially the evening scritches!).”

“emma is an angel who puts anxious pups and their even more anxious owners at ease 😭 had a last minute change before I had to leave town for 3 days that required much more extensive care for my pup than initially anticipated and she was so understanding, willing to adjust, and communicative. i rlly cant thank her enough. also im pretty sure my pup was upset i got back and emma had to leave 😂 as an incredibly anxiously attached pup mama, i 100% recommend her to anyone!!”
“Selena was absolutely incredible with our furry family. She kept us updated with adorable photos throughout our trip and it was very obvious that our babies felt loved! She kept our house spotless and was very accommodating. They are looking forward to next time! ❤️”
“Matt was amazing with my pack and I would book him again in a heartbeat. We rescued my dog from an abusive household and he still can be very nervous around new people. Matt was amazing with him, he was in great hands and I was quickly no longer nervous about leaving my little guy. He was very communicative and my house was spotless when we came home. I would highly recommend Matt for your pet sitting needs!”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a fantastic experience. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos of my dog, which gave me total peace of mind. My home was also perfectly taken care of. To top it off, when my return was delayed, they were incredibly flexible and accommodating. I couldn't ask for better care!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tigard
Alex, was fantastic and we've already hired him again to watch our pets and home while we're away. Our family had very important event out of town this past weekend and Alex was perfect in giving us peace of mind that everything at home was taken care of. He was self-sufficient and just gave us periodic updates with photos of the pets so we could just focus on our event. Thank you, Alex, we'll see you in a couple of weeks!
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Anastasiya! She stayed in our home to watch Oliver and Bailey, and it was our first time leaving our dogs with someone so we were of course nervous. Anastasiya was so sweet and kind!! She sent so many photos, cuddled, played, and went on lots of walks. I wasn’t sure where our dogs would choose to sleep, but they ended up snuggling up in her bed! I appreciate how communicative and accommodating she is to any little extra requests. We came home to two happy pups and a very clean house 😊 we will 100% always choose Anastasiya in the future. So so thankful to have found her.
Lily did an AMAZING job taking care of our two huskies and one golden retriever. One of our huskies is older and required medication and a doggie diaper and Lily did an amazing job taking care of them. We came home to our house cleaner than when we left. We got great updates and pictures and she was very responsive whenever we checked in. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be having her watch our dogs again!
Jessica was wonderful with our dogs and took excellent care of them for a long weekend. She managed amazingly well with our 15-yr-old high needs dog and ensured she took her pills and ate her food, which is no small feat. She left the house clean and tidy, and the dogs seemed happy and relaxed.
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.
Jami was great with my dogs. She took away the anxiety I had over leaving my dogs for a week. I received frequent check-ins to let me know the dogs were doing well and she left my house clean and tidy. One of my dogs recently had spine surgery and has a long list of restrictions and instructions. jami did a great job with him, following the instructions and making sure he was well cared for. My other dog also requires some special attention and she handled them both so well. I'll definitely be using her again when I travel.
Rachael was great! At our meet & greet, she was gentle and sweet with our very frail elderly kitties, and we felt they would be in good hands. She was comfortable dealing with our very detailed med and feeding instructions, which can all be overwhelming for some sitters. She left the house clean and was low-maintenance as a sitter, and we greatly appreciated her helping us out in a pinch--we had to book at the last minute and had a lot of uncertainty about our dates, but Rachael just rolled with it all! When we got home, the kitties seemed content and cared for. We will be happy to have Rachael back!
Chelsee is amazing! Her love for animals is clear from the moment you meet her. We have a dog that is anxious when she meets people, and Chelsee was patient and calm and put her at ease. She earned her trust quickly. She took great care of our dog and we look forward to having her spend more time with her again. Thank you so much Chelsee!!
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!
Everything went very well with Marc taking care of my Corgi Mix for 5 days while I was gone on vacation. He gave my Corgi a lot of attention and even walked her to the dog park by my place. My Corgi was happy and really love Marc. I highly recommend Marc for you and your pet.
Kathryn provides great care for our dog, communicates timely and clearly, and attends to details like a package arriving early or a change in weather that makes a change in the outdoor watering schedule important. We come home to our home as we left it and a happy, well-cared for dog.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tigard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tigard on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,564 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
