“Veronica was incredibly attentive to our pups. Our older dog can sometimes be anxious, but had no problems while Veronica was here - I’m guessing because she felt comfortable and taken care of. Veronica left our place cleaner than when we left. We’d be happy to have her back!”
“Freya did a great job making us feel comfortable with our kitty while we were out of town. She was very good at communicating with updates and pictures and kept the house nice and clean. Would definitely recommend”
“Heather was very prompt when we asked her to be there quite early so we could make our flight. She took notes and was very attentive when we gave her instructions on our pets needs and schedules. She asked great questions and learned all their names. We have 6 cats, 2 big dogs and 8 chickens. We did not worry once while we were gone. Heather provided text and pictures several times a day to let us know everything was great. The animals were happy and healthy when we got and the house was in good shape too! We will definitely be using Heather again.”
“Trula was great! She was so great with our dog and did a good job of sending updates and photos. I would definitely recommend her services if you are looking for a dog sitter! Thanks, Trula!!! :)”
“I cannot recommend Marc enough! Leaving our pets is always stressful, but Marc took such incredible care of them that it felt like they were on vacation too. They were attentive to our pets’ specific routines and sent the best daily photo updates, which allowed me to completely relax on our trip. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Bry was so caring and loving to my pets my neighbors even noticed. She is very kind, Profesional and trustworthy. She was punctual and very communicative. I will definitely hire her again. I had s great experience using Rover for the first time. I felt very reassured and relaxed about the process”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. Now, I have a cat, and I would love to spend some time with your puppers and also take a load off your plate! I used to walk dogs through Wag, so I’m accustomed to meeting and befriending new dogs very quickly. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’d love to hang out with your pups! All services up to two dogs. Dog walking: I’ll walk your dog(s) for 30-60 minutes. My parents’ dog is not very well socialized, so I know how to keep an anxious dog comfortable and under control. Drop-Ins: I’ll feed your dog, take them out, and play with them for a while - whatever you request! House-sitting: All of the above PLUS I’ll stay overnight, water your plants, and bring in your mail. I work in theater on a freelance basis, so I often find myself with a lot of free time. Help me fill it with some pet care! I own my own cat, so I am unable to take your pets into my own home. However, I am happy to visit or stay in your home to care for your pets.
“June did an awesome job taking care of Piper, our 11 year old husky mix for a week. We met with June twice prior to our travel dates. She and Piper hit it off immediately. She was respectful and easy to work with and took excellent care of the house. We look forward to having June take care of Piper again!”
“This was the first time Lucinda stayed in our house and took care of our dog. I can't say enough about how wonderful it all went! Lucinda is an excellent communicator which is very important to me. She sent me regular updates and photos. I felt very confident that our dog was being well cared for. She really seemed to enjoy being with him! We came home to a clean and orderly house. 5 Stars all around!!!”
“Lindsey took great care of our pups! She sent us photos every morning, and kept our house nice and tidy while she was gone. She even tossed in the sheets from the bed she slept in before she left which was so helpful. One of our dogs is pretty high maintenance with chewing her tail and her tail looked great when we came back after our 5-day trip. We will definitely ask Lindsay for her help again when we go out of town next time.”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was very responsive and communicative and sent many updates while I was away. One dog is particularly skittish and he warmed up to her quickly, and both dogs seemed to do very well in her care. I would highly recommend her!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Archie. While I was enjoying my day with family I had little stress worrying about my pooch since Sara & Braden were taking care of him”
“Alexis and Jacob were very communicative and easy to work with! They took good care of my pets and left the house neat and tidy. Would recommend and hire again!”
“Anastasiya was great! She provided regular, photographic updates and it was obvious Carl was enjoying his time with her. She treated my home as if it were her own. She even cleaned the wet/muddy pawprints off the floors. I will definitely use her again!”
“Al took very good care of Nuni. I received updates when I requested. Al was very responsive and my home was also kept in order. Al is injured and she went up and down the stairs with Nuni several times a day and didn't let her injury get in the way or say she couldn't take care of him. Al is very kind and considerate. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby!”
“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!”

Laura got us out of a bind with a different sitter who cancelled a meet and greet three times. In a bind, we reached out to Laura and she quickly confirmed that she was available. We were not able to do a meet and greet but felt great with the communication back and forth throughout the stay. She left the place clean and our dog had been well snuggled.
I adopted my 2 rescues 8 months ago and have not left them for more than 4 hours. They are anxious, reactive, and require a lot of activity and care. Because of a business trip, I needed in home care for them. Bill stepped in and calmly did the job. He sent many pictures of them playing. My dogs were calm and happy, and were sad to see him leave. This gives me great peace of mind knowing we will have someone we trust providing our sweet pups great care.
This was our first time using Marisa. We appreciated her prompt response when we reached out. She was very personable, on time and asked good questions during our meet and greet. We have two dogs and two cats and they warmed up to her quickly. During her stay, she was very communicative and sent lots of photos, which was great. When we got home, the house was picked up and clean. She did a great job and we would definitely hire her again.
If you're ever unsure of leaving your animals, just leave it to Enya! She is a rockstar and we are so relieved to have found a petsitter that takes care of our babies as her own. Our rescue dog has high anxiety when separated from her humans, and we were nervous leaving her for the first time. She took a few days to warm up but Enya was gentle, patient, and considerate of her space and boundaries. By day two, our dog came around. Our cats absolutely adored her from the start and seemed to get along better for her than they ever have for us! Enya kept us updated on the regular and is quick to respond / shift care as needed. Our place was left exactly as she found it, and she even went above and beyond to make our animals' spots around the house even cozier. No need to look further, Enya is your girl!
Anastasiya was phenomenal. She watched our home and herd of animals for us while we were out of town. She went above and beyond with caring for our fur babies. She was in communication and sent regular updates keeping our minds at ease. What a joy and gift to have found her. Xoxoxo
Regan is incredible! She provided me with daily updates and photos which made my day. She kept my dog and cat so happy and entertained. They just love her so much! Plus she left our house so clean. We are so grateful to have her as our go-to so please don't book her when we need her 😆. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Tualatin
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tualatin on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,646 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tualatin. 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 Tualatin 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 Tualatin 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 Tualatin 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.
