About: Hi! We're Michael and Ruby, and we'd love the opportunity to care for your furry family member. As dog owners ourselves, we know how stressful it can be to leave your pet behind. That's why we provide the same love, patience, and attention we'd want for our own dogs. Our goal is for every pup to feel safe, happy, and right at home while you're away. Our family includes our two friendly, neutered dogs—Einstein ("Ein"), our fun-loving Corgi, and Maximus ("Max"), our sweet Terrier/Chihuahua mix. They enjoy making new friends and help create a welcoming, family atmosphere. Why Families Choose Us 🐾 One family's pets at a time for personalized attention 🏡 Safe, fully fenced backyard for supervised play 🚶 Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment 🛋️ Dogs are welcome on the couch for snuggles (if that's what they're used to!) 💊 Experienced with administering medications 📸 Plenty of photo and video updates throughout every stay 🐶 Puppies welcome 🚽 Potty-training reinforcement ❤️ Calm, loving home where your dog is treated like family—not just boarded I am home during the day, so your pup receives lots of companionship and supervision. My husband joins in during the evenings and weekends, giving your dog even more love and attention. We enjoy getting to know every dog's unique personality. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, enjoys relaxing on the couch, or just wants lots of belly rubs, we'll make sure they feel comfortable and loved. 🐶 Our Promise When your dog stays with us, they're never "just another booking." We intentionally accept only one family's dogs at a time so we can provide a calm, low-stress environment and focus completely on your pet's needs. We'll follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, bedtime habits, and any special instructions to help your dog feel right at home. Our goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is safe, loved, and having a vacation of their own!

“Becky was fantastic w our difficult pitbull mix that has separation anxiety. She went above & beyond what our expectations were. I'd gladly recommend anyone to hire her for their pets. She even was gracious enough to extend our one job for an extra half hour when my appointment went over the time I had hired her for.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and as a pet mom to four dogs of my own, I understand just how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. My family includes an 11-year-old chocolate Labrador, an 8-year-old white Labrador, a 7-year-old black Labrador, and a 6-year-old mini Frenchie, so I have hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, energy levels, and stages of life, including senior dogs. I’m attentive, dependable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether I’m walking your dog, stopping in for a visit, feeding, refreshing water, giving extra attention, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I also understand how important communication is when you’re away, so you can expect dependable updates and photos and the peace of mind of knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My schedule offers me the flexibility to make pet care a priority throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime and companionship, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s established routine whenever possible. As a longtime pet owner myself, I understand how important consistency is, especially when you’re trusting someone else with their care. Your pet’s safety, comfort and routine will always come first. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, crates, gates and household routines. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and never take unnecessary risks with pets in my care. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would expect in mine and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for.

“They did an AMAZING job with our trio of kitties. They even got our grumpy old cat who doesn’t trust anyone to come around :) I would totally recommend them to anyone. They took care of our kitties as if they were their own and were great about communication and keeping an eye on everything.”

About: As a Certified Master Dog Trainer, caring for dogs is more than just a job—it’s what I do every day. I have experience with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also own a German shepherd and a Belgian Malinois who both are high-energy dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling active breeds and making sure they get the physical and mental enrichment they need while staying safe and having fun. I’m available Monday through Friday with flexible daytime and afternoon scheduling. If you have a specific time in mind, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I know trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and make sure your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care — that’s why I provide a safe, structured, and loving home environment where pets are treated like family, not “boarded animals.” I provide in-home pet care with a strong focus on safety, routine, and individualized attention. My home is designed to offer a calm, supervised environment where pets feel secure, understood, and comfortable throughout their stay. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified with over 40 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in personal, rescue, and foster settings. I have worked with puppies, seniors, anxious pets, large breeds, and high-needs cases requiring rehabilitation, structure, and behavioral support. I also have extensive medical experience, including administering insulin for diabetic pets, subcutaneous fluids, oral and injectable medications, and specialized topical treatments. I am confident and gentle when caring for senior and medically complex pets. Fluent in English and Spanish, with additional working knowledge of Korean, I am able to clearly communicate and follow detailed care instructions from a wide range of pet owners. Daily Rates are based on a 24h stay (anything over each 24h is an additional stay) *All intact canines over the age of 18mo are a $50 daily rate and holidays $60 **All puppies under 18mo are a $50 daily rate and $60 on holidays ***All spayed/neutered canines over the age of 18mo who weigh over my Rover weight limit of 41 - 81lb is a $46 daily rate & $56 on holidays Canines over 81lb are a $50 daily rate and $60 on holidays ****Special needs pups that require medication is an additional $5 daily. Pick up & Drop Off Times are as Followed: Mon-Thurs from 10am - 9pm Fri-Sat 7am - 9pm Sun 12 noon - 7pm Daily Rates are based on a 24h stay (anything over each 24h is an additional stay) *All intact canines over the age of 18mo are a $50 daily rate and holidays $60 **All puppies under 18mo are a $50 daily rate and $60 on holidays ***All spayed/neutered canines over the age of 18mo who weigh over my Rover weight limit of 41 - 81lb is a $46 daily rate & $56 on holidays Canines over 81lb are a $50 daily rate and $60 on holidays ****Special needs pups that require medication is an additional $5 daily. Because I operate my pet care business from home, my daily schedule is fully centered around the pets in my care. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured routines, and timely attention throughout the day. Pets are never left unattended for extended periods. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, medication routines, and rest periods to ensure each pet receives reliable, attentive care in a calm and stable environment. Safety and structure are a top priority in my home. My property is fully fenced with additional enclosed outdoor areas designed for safe, controlled activity suited to different sizes, ages, and temperaments. Pets are always supervised in a calm, structured environment where their safety and comfort come first. This includes active oversight throughout the day to ensure each pet is secure, accounted for, and emotionally at ease. For the safety of all animals in my care, I do not accept reactive or aggressive dogs. Each pet is carefully screened through a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility and a safe, balanced environment. My own pets are professionally trained and well-socialized, contributing to a stable and peaceful home atmosphere.

She was able to meet with me quickly and understood Coco’s care needs. Everything was completed as requested and I returned to find Coco calm and happy! Also enjoyed seeing the pictures and reading the notes from each visit. Great experience with Danielle!”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, administering medications, and providing lots of love and attention, I treat every dog like family. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. With my open summer schedule, I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to pet care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m available throughout the day to give your dog the attention and care they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I truly enjoy spending my free time with furry friends! Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for your pet. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease, just like part of the family. I follow feeding routines, provide fresh water, regular potty breaks, walks, and lots of playtime and affection. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s familiar environment and stick closely to your routines and instructions. I make sure they feel secure, entertained, and loved while you’re away, keeping stress to a minimum. Cleanliness, communication, and care are always top priorities.

About: My wife and I do pet sitting together. We love all animals. we treat them as our own. We have 4 dogs and 3 cats. We have watching animals since 2015 and have over 200 clients. We have someone home all day to care for the babies in our home. We do work full time but different shifts to accommodate our fur babies having someone home all day. I like to think that while in my care the cat / dog is my own personal pet. I think a pet is part of our family.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Umatilla

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Umatilla is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $26 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 October 2026, there are 2,871 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Umatilla. 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 .

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 , 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 Umatilla. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
