About: I have previous experience in the veterinary field as an assist/tech for 4 years. I am well versed in medications and prescription diets and understand animal behavior. I am very patient with nervous animals too! I currently work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. However, I am able to come by 2-3 times per day depending on your pets needs! I would do an early morning visit at around 7am, a check in at 3-4pm, and an additional check in later in the evening depending on your needs. I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you! I will care for your pets as I do my own! I understand that each pets needs will be different and will make accommodations as needed. You know your pets best, so I will follow all instructions provided to ensure the best care.
“Ashley did a great job with our two kitties. She popped over to our house prior to our trip to meet the kitties and know her way around the house. We appreciated the daily updates and photos, as well as cleaning up the messes the kids had made. Any concerns we had were taken care of. Thank you Ashley!”
“Claire is exceptional. She has a breadth and depth of experience in taking care of your pet and house that makes this house-sitting and pet-sitting experience stress-free and enjoyable. We feel fortunate to have met and hired her.”
“Charlie was so sweet with Rogue and clearly loves animals. They did a great job and I can highly recommend them to anyone needing loving and responsible pets care.”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, pigs, chickens, pheasant, and other animals; I'm currently a cat owner myself. I am a gentle caregiver who is very adaptable to different pet personalities and owner preferences. I'm currently in the paralegal certificate program at PCC. My work for that program is largely done in online classes and homework assignments, so my schedule easily fits pets. Mr. Bones, my cat, rarely has to go for an extended period of time without me checking in on him. My cat is on a regular feeding schedule, but I factor in treat times as well to reward him for good behavior. I make sure to play with him multiple times daily as well to keep him healthy and relaxed. I let him approach me for our cuddle times, whether they're while I'm reading, doing homework, or sleeping.
“Amazing as always! She’s super responsive, reliable, and the only person I trust with my babies. My dogs absolutely love her, and I always have peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands! ❤️”
“Cora did an outstanding job with Ollie on short notice…she’s watched him before and always keeps us updated with lots of photos :) Left the house in better shape than it was before. Highly recommended!”
“Andre is a great pet sitter. I will definitely hire him again. He is very loving to animals, and put me at ease when I left my geriatric bunny for a long weekend. He was very communicative and sent updates and photos at every drop-in. He left the house in good order and upon return I could see how Freyja and her spaces were well cared. Highly recommend!!”
“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”
“Janelle took amazing care of my cat! Lots of picture and video updates and went above and beyond with taking care of her and my place where she stayed. She’s very attentive and her love for animals is very apparent. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
About: I recently moved here from Birmingham, Alabama and pet sat for a decade and I want to continue to connect with new families and their little floofs here in the pnw! I have worked with all ages of cats and dogs. I’ve also taken care of fish, hamsters and even bees on occasions. In the past I have had the same eight families I have looked after and met other pet families through them over time too. I have a fully free schedule since I just moved here and searching for a part time job. In the past I have been in school, worked at restaurants, and consistently pet sat as a combined full time because looking after little ones is a part of my daily routine that I cherish and wish to continue. So I am excited and able to be with your little ones as much as needed. I want the pet(s) to be relaxed and comfortable in their own homes when looking after them in order to not disrupt their regular routine too much. I prefer to meet the family and little one(s) before caring for the animal(s) before overnight sitting or for just drops ins. This way I can be well aquatinted with everyone and bring sense of calm into everyone’s daily routines from the start. This way, I can also learn in person their exact routines, any medication’s if applicable, any quirky things the pets might request in their routines, ie I once had an elderly dog thatI looked after that wanted his dinner “ heated up” in the microwave. So I would make “beeping’ nosies and pretend that his food was fancy like a humans. The family and I found it as a cute and an easy way to make him feel happy and eager to eat. The quirky the better is what I have always looked forward to when bonding with the little ones. For a meet and greet, if the family and animal(s) are ok with more of a “come on in” policy where there’s not a meet and greet first, particularly for drop ins, I’m more than happy to use with this method as well. For dogs in particular, I want to make sure that I keep up with their exercise routines with any amount of walks requested. If the family and floof(s) are more adventurous, I would happily like to take them on hikes, if it is wished to be incorporated into their routines.
“Rachael has been very kind and flexible when dropping in on my cat! I felt great knowing Smokey was being cared for and having fun during these visits. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have extensive experience taking care of cats, dogs and reptiles, including babies, elderly and sick pets. I also have experience with outdoor livestock such as cows, pigs, and chickens.

I am a seasonal wildland firefighter with the winter months off so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends.

About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover. I have experience wearing for puppies, seniors, dogs of all sizes, cats, and bunnies. I am reliable, communicative, and a warm and patient companion for your loved one. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority and I always respect their boundaries as living beings. I can’t wait to meet them! I work free-lance and set my own schedule, so I am able to be flexible with my pet care scheduling. I do require 3 day notice for overnight stays. Beyond basic safety and care, I will follow whatever routine is normal for you and your pet. I will request details about your pets disposition and individual needs to best care for them. I understand the worries that can come with entrusting the care of your pet to another person, and will be consistently available for check ins, and sending photos and/or videos so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.

We don’t book a trip without first booking Skylar. She’s consistent, reliable, and professional. She’s great with our cats and we have confidence that she can handle any situation. Our home is always a pleasure to come home to after she’s been looking after it. Thank you Skylar!!
Lilieana went above and beyond taking care of my girl while I was away. I haven’t been away this long from my cat before, but Lilieana made sure she gave Plum all the love and care she would’ve gotten as if it were me! She was very attentive and let me know if she noticed anything or had any questions. Would absolutely recommend. ⭐️
Peter C. was completely amazing. I had a friend who was dealing with repeated hospitalizations and needed someone to come in and help give his cat medications for a few days; Peter was able to come in on very short notice and help us out for close to a week. While I wasn't personally present, my friend was very happy with them and said they were very good with his shy, elderly cat. It was a huge help for both of us, and I couldn't be more grateful. Would definitely hire again.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Troutdale is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
