“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!”
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.
“Odalis has been great. This is the second time she has helped us out. She reliably checks in each day and sends us photos of our two cats so we can rest easy and enjoy our travels knowing their OK.”
“Danielle is great! She took such good care of my cat, Kali, who had never been left by herself! She also fed my fish, kept their water cool and watered my avocado trees!! Which are thriving! I will definitely use her again!!”
“So grateful Matthew could help watch my place while I was gone. He was conscientious about sending me pics and updates and my neighbor enjoyed his conversation.”
“Maia was so helpful with a last minute request and we really appreciated her help. She played with Finn and Bolt gave them a potty break and some treats. We’d definitely use her again! THANK YOU Maia!”
“There is nothing better than coming home from a trip, and knowing that your pet has been well cared for. Sydney is so great with our cat, and when we got home today you could tell that she enjoyed her time while we were gone. Her coat looked wonderful from the brushings Sydney did, and she was clearly taken good care of. We also very much appreciate the great pictures that Sydney sends, and she is always great about communication!”
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.
“Johnna provided excellent care for my three cats, Ole, Oskar and Ozzy. Excellent communication, punctual and responsible. Don't hesitate to book her to care for your pet!”
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.
“Sophia came quickly after request was sent to meet our pups. Then came for a drop-in, as requested. She was great with the dogs and did all she said she’d do. We appreciate the help very much. Will reach out again!”
About: I’ve had family dogs all of my life. As a teenager I was in 4-H dog training. My kids and I trained puppies with Guide Dogs for the Blind. I am a morning person, work from home and have a flexible work schedule to fit in home and walking visits. I love spending weekends playing with my and others’ dogs. I take animal safety seriously. My yard is fenced. When out and about around neighborhoods, my dog is leashed. I also have long lines to leash, if needed. If we swim together or paddleboard at Cook Park and the Tualatin River, my dog wears a life jacket.
“Thank you so much for your help Hannah! You dealt with the cats really well even when Oreo was a bit grumpy and maladjusted to our absence. We appreciated all your updates and pics and looking out for Inky when she was hiding.”
About: I’ve always been the person who stops to pet every dog or cat I see around the neighborhood, so getting to spend more time with animals is pretty much my idea of a good day. 🐾 I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including working as a Kennel Attendant at VCA Rock Creek Hospital, walking dogs for a local dog-walking company, and caring for my own senior dog from the Humane Society, Mr Benny. After Benny passed away about a year ago, I still had so much love to give to animals! So I started volunteering with Animal Aid, where I help care for dogs and cats in need of homes. I’d love to give you an extra hand with your furry friend next. I’ve worked with dogs of all different ages, energy levels, and breeds, and I’m comfortable administering medication when needed. But honestly, one of my favorite parts of pet care is getting to know each animal’s personality—and getting to know their person, too. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company, or your pet just needs someone to give them a little extra love while you’re away, I’d be excited to help! I currently work a typical full-time schedule, so my availability is primarily on weekends in the afternoons and evenings. I’m happy to coordinate ahead of time to find a schedule that works well for both you and your pet. I only offer house visits, so I won’t be watching pets in my own home. I think pets are usually happiest staying in their own space, and I’m happy to come to them! I’ll follow your care instructions, make sure everything is secure before I leave, and send updates or photos if you’d like. I’m currently available for house visits during the times and within the radius listed on my profile.
“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!”
“Angelique and her husband are excellent sitters! We have 6 cavaliers and they are very sweet to them. I always get pictures and updates of my kids. I highly recommend them to everyone! :)”
About: Never in my life have I not been surrounded by a dog, cat, lizard or fish! It’s my dream to own every kind of animal I can fit in my home. All animals deserve attention and affection and they all are more intelligent than people understand! I’m able to notice the smallest details about them and be able to treat them accordingly!! I am currently in the process of looking for jobs but I would love to have a full time job and be able to house/pet sit in the evening/on weekends! I have a beautiful backyard and play area. I have a safe cul-de-sac with many walking trails in the neighborhood! I’m 5 minute walk from a park as well! I’d love to go out at least once daily with them for play time but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying it indoors as well.

Stacy was great! Our cat loved her, she provided us with a couple daily updates, and sent us pics every time. It was our first long trip away from our cat, and Stacy gave us great peace of mind the entire time. We’ll definitely ask her to come back, and we can’t recommend Stacy enough!
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 😊
We booked Kristen on short notice after our sitter canceled on us. Oliver (our cat) is diabetic, so that comes with some additional responsibilities for a cat sitter. Kristen was so communicative and on top of everything for care. She asked questions to make sure she understood what to do. She also sent so many pictures and gave Oliver lots of cuddles. Highly recommend due to her friendly demeanor, reliability, and responsiveness!
Jessica was amazing!! I booked Jessica very last minute and she was responsive and listened to all my needs for my cat with separation anxiety who takes medications. Jessica send tons of photos and let me know how each visit went. I will definitely book with Jessica 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
Brianna is such a wonderful pet-sitter and person to have check on your animals!!! Genuinely could not say enough good things about our experience. She went above and beyond to make sure our senior cat & chickens were well taken care of. Thank you Bri for the peace of mind while we were out of town!
Hannah did a great job taking care of both my cats, including one nearly 14 year old and one one year old cat. The older one requires medication twice a day. I was given detailed updates and many pictures from each check-in. The cats looked really happy, and the house was really clean when I came home (9 day job, two visits each day). I am fortunate to find her, and hope to hire to her again!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet 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 6,669 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tigard. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
