About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. What started as my own quickly transformed into me neighbors and families as well. I can cut toe nails, bathe, walk, etc! I currently work from home and go to school but I can definitely care and love on your pups and cats (and any other animal). I love all of them - big and small! I have a fenced yard with my own friendly dog that loves to make friends as well. I can also crate your (or my) dogs if needed with a crate you provide. I’m currently working part time so I have tons of time to look after your pets. I’m about to go on maternity leave as well and so my complete attention will be turned to working from home with odd jobs! I have a fenced yard and a very friendly pup to keep your dog company. I have a couch for dogs to lay on and a dog bed.
“Becky did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our two dogs and two cats! From the moment we met her, we knew our pets were in good hands. She was not only professional but also incredibly caring and loving towards our fur babies. Becky accommodated our schedule without hesitation and made the whole experience stress-free. Our pets were happy, well-cared for, and clearly loved during her time with them. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely be booking with Becky again in the future!”
“Claudia is the best! Felix loved her almost from the first time she met him. She spent quality time with him, and for once he was not "mad" at me for leaving him when I returned home! That speaks volumes. I highly recommend Claudia!”
About: Ive taken care of cats and dogs for many years. I have family members that rely on the to take there dogs out hand help with cats. . Im currently unemployed so, I can spend time and play with your furry babys whenever you need me to or they want to ! It do not have in a fenced in area and I do own 2 cats i would prefer to come and take care of your pets where they are most comfortable
About: I have taken care of my family and friends animals since I was 14, I am now 20 and have worked with Animak Enforcement for a year at the LCSO. I have also volunteered at many Animal Shelters! I’m currently available at any point in time, animals fit into my active routine as taking on walks and caring intensively is something to look forward with me! I cannot do boarding at my home due to mom and sister being allergic :( I plan on having an animals sanctuary when I move out!
About: If you want to get away for that well deserved vacation or just a 3 day weekend and feel secure in knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for, then I’m just who you’re looking for! I have loved dogs (and most animals) my whole life. I think of them as a family member, not as a pet. I will remain calm around your loved one as not to cause any anxiety. Even though I don’t have a dog at this time, I have had many dogs throughout my life. I can hardly remember a time that I didn’t have one. My best friend (a Boxer named CC) had quite a few medical problems from 2010 through 2015 and I had to give her an average of 17 pills a day. (Sometimes less). So I’m pretty experienced as far as that goes. My schedule is very flexible and I am very reliable. I am flexible about allowing your pet on furniture. If that’s not allowed I will follow your wishes 100%.
“Lauren was amazing! We were visiting from out of town and needed to find a dog sitter. Lauren was trustworthy, dependable, knowledgeable, kind and genuine. We needed drop-ins for 2 days and she sent me check-ins, pictures and videos. She loved on our pooch and even left us some dog treats after her last visit. So sweet! We highly, highly, highly recommend her!”
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
“I had an emergency hospitalization and contacted Rover. Jennifer did a great job watching my female Whippet Cinnamon 2 days in a row, playing with her, walking her, feeding her, taking her to the dog park. She took videos & pics. She did everything I asked.”
About: I have watched my cousins dogs and my friend‘s dogs and I love them all! I especially love playing with them and taking them on walks! I am a college student living in Lakeland during the weekdays and I come home on the weekends. I do not do anything on the weekends other than go to church. I would love to take care of your pet! I let the pets roam around in the house except for certain rooms that have anything that could harm the pet and I always have my eye on them to make sure they aren’t getting into trouble! :)
“Laura was such a life saver with taking care of our girl. She has terrible separation anxiety and Laura made leaving her so much easier. She really saved the day on short notice and I recommend her if you have a boo boo baby of a pitbull lol. Thanks Laura!”
“Good experience. The whole family did a good job looking after our dog while we were gone. Received regular photos and updates on our dog. Room was clean when we came back home.”
“Brooke did such a great job! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so thankful I found someone who was trustworthy while I was away from home. It’s obvious how much she cares about animals and will treat yours like her own. She even brought in my packages and took photos to share on every trip to my home. She happily checked in on the fishy and took the dogs for walks which is so appreciated!”
“Elizabeth was the best! We received pictures and updates and our girl was so happy which gave us piece of mind. This our first time doing this we couldn’t be happier. Thank you.”
About: I've taken care of multiple neighbors pets as well as friend's and family's pets for years. Love taking them out for walks and making them wag their tails! I’m currently a graduate student in PA school and am about to start my clinical rotations! Because my schedule varies from rotation to rotation, my availability may change throughout the year. Some rotations allow me to be home much more frequently than others. Before accepting any house-sitting request, I’ll always discuss my schedule with you to ensure it matches your pet’s potty break, exercise, and companionship needs. I only accept bookings when I know I can provide the level of care your pet deserves. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of love. I carefully follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules. Our old baby was blind and diabetic so I know how important a consistent schedule can be. I love providing regular updates with photos as well so you know how loved your fur baby is :)
About: I have cared for various types of animals since I was around 10 years old. You can trust me to take great care of your fur baby as I have the best interest of all animals at heart. I currently work 8-4:40 5 days a week. This schedule is ideal for pet siting as it leaves me plenty of time morning and evening to spend with your fur baby. I have a large yard and a very sweet male black lab to keep your dog company. However, I can keep them separate if necessary.
“Christine did a wonderful job taking care of my kitty while I was away. She has great attention to detail and truly loves pets. I highly recommend her and give her 5 stars.”

Jyoti was fantastic! She did two drop-in visits for our dogs, Dolly and Rivers, while we were away for the day. She was professional, punctual, and wonderful with both of them. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for and could enjoy our day without worrying. We highly recommend Jyoti and will definitely be requesting her again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups! 🐾💕

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Umatilla stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Umatilla 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Umatilla with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
