About: Growing up I had pets but my family has had up to 7 animals at a time some with arthritis some needing special care so I'd be more than happy to accommodate any of your pets needs. I have some vet tech training, which includes being trained to look for Animals behaviour to make sure everything's okay with them, dealing with all types of pets, and proper care. I do have a job Monday through Friday 6am to 230pm. I currently work Monday through Friday 6 to 230. Outside of that I can and will make your animal or house my priority. I do not have an animal at this time so I will not have any conflicts with trying to balance your animal with my own. I understand each person has unique rules and expectations for their animals and house. I will do my best to respect any guy lands, and we have full disclosure of anything. I do not think I will be capable of handling.
About: We are a husband-wife team that both work from home and love dogs and cats. We walk our dog(s) daily for a 3 to 4 mile walk, and shorter routes can be done for dogs that can't go long distance. Happy to house sit your fur baby/babies or just provide breaks for your pup or feed the cat. Our motto is... A tired dog is a good dog! We have flexible schedules. We are comfortable with giving meds if needed. Good with large breeds and light training during walks. Happy to reinforce whatever training / skills you are working on. We sometimes foster dogs, so schedule can be unpredictable at times. We both work from home currently, so have the ability to do drop-in visits morning, afternoon or evening. Soon-to-be retired for one of us, so that will increase availability quite a bit. We are not currently offering boarding in our home due to having a dog-selective large breed at this time. Happy to pet-sit in your home, usually just one of us.
“Kyle was quick to respond and very patient with our dog as he takes a bit to warm up to new people. We will definitely be reaching out again the next time we need assistance.”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family dogs. I enjoy training and playing — my pup knows 25 commands! Patient, loving care for every dog I look after. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, home visits, and overnight stays throughout the week. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find the best times for their dogs I provide a safe home for pets with a great park behind my house for walks. My own pup will be a playful companion for your dog!
About: I have dog sat multiple times for family friends, usually 3 dogs at a time, no problem. The owners always return to their dogs being happy and healthy. I am self employed now so I am very flexible and will be available pretty much all day to take care of your fur babies. I am very flexible caring for your animals in whatever way you’re most comfortable with and whatever ways work well for your fur baby.
“Rachelle did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away. She took the time before I left to get to know my cat, her particular needs, and ask many questions to ensure she was well cared for. While caring for my cat, she communicated frequently and was very responsive. I would definitely ask her to care for my pets again!”
“Renee was very good with my 12-year-old, blind dog Ray. Ray is apprehensive around strangers, but she won his confidence and did a great job of caring for him overnight. She even got up in the middle of the night to feed him, medicate him, and let him out to relieve himself. He needs medications three times a day, and she was good about giving these. She was very gentle and patient with him, and she left the house in good order. I'm so happy to have found Renee. Thank you Renee!! You're great!”
“Hannah was reliable in her visits and communication. She took the time to give my cats attention and love while I was away and I returned to two healthy and happy kitties. Went above and beyond. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals, volunteering with pet rescues as a foster home, as well as owning various of my own! I’ve had a range of pets like frogs, turtles, fish, dogs, cats, and small snakes! I’m really patient and open to a many of pet behaviors from quiet and reserved to crazy and fun! I’m a full time SAHW, so my schedule is able to be completely catered to personalize each pet client’s experience in my presence. For boarding, potty breaks can be as often as needed, and activities can be flexible for any pet’s needs. My home is an open-plan style, so there’s lots of room for everyone and their activities! I have multiple cat towers, dog beds, toys, rugs, and carpet areas for luxury laying down time. I have rooms to separate pets that may not get along, and I am experienced in handling uncomfortable situations in my own space. When I attend a client’s home, I really like for my pet clients to get most of my attention as scheduled, since my partner can always take care of our own pets while I’m away. I’m patient, I get as comfortable as allowed to help the environment for the pet, and I love to see other pets as my own friends.
About: Besides my experience with my own pets I began volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society at 17. After that I went on to dog sit for various different families part time for around 3 years. I have a big window of availability currently. I’m going back to school in the fall, but until then I am just working part time. I work for my grandpa, so my schedule is super flexible! When I dog sit in the clients home I will follow your instructional list for feeding/walks/ activities/ grooming ect. I have car so I can take your pup to nearby parks/ dog parks if you would like, or just for a classic stroll around your neighborhood if you prefer. For clients that would prefer I take car if you dog in my home I have a fenced in back yard and live near several park so we can go on several adventures. Or just chill at home if you have a senior/ more low energy dog. My only deal breaker is that your dog isn’t reactive towards cats.
“Amir took great care of our cats and cow while we were away on our trip to Seattle! He was super detailed and asked a lot of great questions during the meet and greet to make sure he was prepared. He was super punctual and took great care of our animals! We will definitely use him again in the future when we need to! Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and grew up helping care for pets, so I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and giving each pet the patience and attention they need. Now that my husband and I have bought our first home, I’m excited to fill it with wagging tails and happy paws. I work from home on East Coast hours, so my afternoons are wide open for exercise, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m attentive, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and right at home. Working from home gives me the flexibility to fit my day around your pet’s routine. I work East Coast hours, so I start early (5:30am) and finish around 2 PM. Throughout the day, I have time for potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins, and my afternoons are open for walks, companionship, enrichment, and quality time together. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. In my home, they’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, a quiet, comfortable environment, and a walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks.
About: I LOVE LOVE ANIMALS!!! I have a great passion for pet care and personally understand what its like wanting to make sure they are safe, doing well and have everything they need while you are away. I would love to assist with taking them for walks, feeding them or cleaning the litter box. I'm also okay with cleaning up behind them if they should have an accident. In addition, I would be more than happy to give them some playtime while creating a new friendship. Since I am mobile, I would come to you so that your pet would be more at ease with me while already being comfortable in their own home whether it's in the daytime or nighttime.(Overnights available on Sun, Mon, Tues).Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you need that special someone you can trust with your fur babies. I'm excited to make some great new furry friends! You won't be disappointed! Thank you in advance for the opportunity :) I'm available to provide services daily between 9am-6pm for drop-in visits or dog walking. Currently, I'm not available for house-sitting/pet sitting until November 29th. I will care for pets in your home. I will make sure they have food, water and also clean the cat litter and walk the dog. I can also brush them if you would like. Lastly, give them lots of love and hugs.

About: My family grew up with dogs, but we always attracted a wounded stray, or a Lone Ranger walking the streets. Ive helped take care of several over the years, from big to small, mighty to miniature: Dalmatians , Miniature Schnauzers , and Pit Bulls especially ( personal fave ) , and fairly few Dealers Choice I’m currently looking to fill both day and night opportunities. Two to Four weekends a month, depending on the month, and the only guaranteed unavailable day is Monday. I currently don’t have the pleasure and love of my own furry family, and that’s why I’d like to help care for others loved ones, when life just gets too busy. Avid traveler myself. I know how any detail can get in the way of the perfect trip and would love to make one less part of the journey stressful. As a Registered Nurse I have a solid background in human healthcare , and without some Oath taking a seriousness in health, comfort, truet and safety.
“Brittany took such good care our cats of Ethel and Max while we were away that we really couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Our cats need medication, and Brittany made sure they were comfortable and cared for and kept us at ease while we were away. I would highly recommend her :)”

This was my first time ever leaving my pups and Jessica made me feel very comfortable and confident that they would be taken care of. She was very prompt on the drop in times I requested and took overall great care. I’m very thankful to have found her to take care of my babies.
Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs during drop-in visits for feedings. Our two senior dogs are on a plethora of medications, and their meal and medication routine is somewhat complicated. Angela carefully followed our instructions, made sure they received all of their medications, and ensured they ate their meals. She had originally been scheduled for overnights, but I ended up having to cancel my trip because I became very sick. Angela was incredibly flexible with the change in plans and came for drop-in visits instead to help out with the dogs. She communicated with me upon each arrival and made sure all of our dogs’ needs were met. She even went above and beyond by watering our flowers and cleaning up the dog run while I was unable to do it myself. I really appreciated her reliability, flexibility, and care for our dogs. I would absolutely have Angela care for them again!

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.

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.
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 Washougal 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 .
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.
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 .
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.

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.
