“This is the second time Christina has taken care of my cat, and once again she went above and beyond. She genuinely cares about your pets and their wellbeing. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Ivy was fantastic! I appreciated her patience, understanding, and consideration with Aspen. She was kind, thoughtful and careful while Aspen became comfortable with her. Scheduling and coordinating with Ivy was a breeze. She put in time and effort to make the schedule and manage everything through Rover. I'll be using Ivy in the future, without a doubt.”
“I have a diabetic cat who's afraid of everyone and requires insulin injections 2x a day. I have not been able to find anyone willing to take on this challenging situation, until I found Cassie on Rover. I swear she can walk on water and is a cat whisperer. She took the time to come and watch me do a glucose test and insulin injection before the first trip I've been able to take in 7 yrs , knowing she would take good care of Punkin. I was gone for 8 days and she came twice a day and Punkin didn't hide from her like she does with everyone but me. I could not recommend her highly enough and will definitely be planning longer trips, using Cassie without worrying my cat would suffer. If you want a sweet, reliable and caring cat sitter, you want Cassie on Rover.”
About: I’ve had all kinds of animals since I was a kid —cats, dogs and more. I have experience with a variety of animals and love taking care of them like they’re my own! I work weird hours and days so I’m available at times most people aren’t! If you’re looking for someone that will be in town during holidays, that would be me! I understand every pet is different and might take time to adjust. I care about sticking to a schedule and keeping the pets feeling cared about regarding routine, habits, medications, and whatever else they might need. I’ve had all kinds of animals since I was a kid growing up on a farm- cats, dogs and more. I have experience with a variety of animals and love taking care of them like they’re my own!
About: I had the honor of growing up with dogs of all sizes, so I’m very comfortable with pets regardless of breed and size. My friends’ dogs love when I come visit them because I’m always game for a walk, some socialization, meals, meds, and even the occasional bath (even when they don’t like it) Because I work from home, I have strong flexibility to be able to care for pets. Between meetings, I can attend to their needs, and I welcome the chance to also balance my time away from the computer as well! When I’m in someone else’s home, I treat it with the utmost respect. After I’ve left, I try to make it appear like I was never there, and I honor that everyone’s space is special to them.
About: I focus on building trust first. I like to play, engage, and use simple training techniques to create a strong bond, which helps dogs feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also attentive to different needs: Puppies: patience, basic training support, and structured routines Adult dogs: exercise, engagement, and consistency Senior dogs: gentle care, close monitoring, and comfort-focused attention. My approach is simple, keep your pet active, safe, and emotionally secure, while maintaining clear communication with you at all times. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I’m available for boarding Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. During that time, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and loving care in a safe and comfortable environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise routines. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I have been walking dogs for several years now, and love running with dogs who need extra exercise! Love playing with and giving care to pups and cats at home also. Currently going to community college and hoping to spend time making sure animals are well taken care of in my free time! I’m currently going to school and have a lot of free time on Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends to spend time with pets! Other days I am able to stop by for shorter amounts of times but I am available most days for at least a short time. I will be able to watch your pets at your home according to their regular schedule so that they are not too thrown off by their owner being gone! Whatever your pets need to feel more normal and at ease during the time you are away, I am confident I can deliver.
“Marissa was amazing, she is so sweet and our kitty absolutely loved her. She took so many pictures and made sure to update me on how everything was going. Marissa went above and beyond. She gave me total peace of mind while I was gone. I will absolutely be using her again ❤️ I highly recommend Marissa!!”

I can assure you that if you choose me, I will love your animals as if they are my own.

About: I've never been without pets in my life, big dogs and small, as well as multiple cats. I have a limited experience with guinea pigs and hamsters. I am currently going through Vet Tech school with Pierce college. I also have been volunteering at the Auburn Valley Humane Society and there cat cafe for some time now. With our 3 pups and 2 cats they get quite a bit of play time in our 5 person household. Cats are my responsibility so every day they get their litter boxes cleaned, water and food is full and clean, and that my older cat got his meds. Our dogs get poop cleaned a few times a week and are fed twice a day. It has blended into my day to day life to make sure they are happy and healthy. Watching body language is key, every animal is different on whether they want to be left alone, approached slowly or are happy as can be. The first part of Vet Tech school was body language and how to approach with everyone's safety in mind.
“This was our second time having Stephanie care for our two young cats in our home, and once again she did an amazing job. I felt completely at ease traveling, knowing our cats were in such good hands. Communication was fantastic — I received lots of photos and updates, which was so reassuring. She also went above and beyond by helping me handle a refrigerator issue while we were away. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve watched dogs/cats for many friends and been recommended to others. I love animals and have Always had dogs around, and have a sweet kitty in Portland and 2 doggies up here in Federal Way. I’ve walked dogs and pet sat as well. I am available Saturdays for sure, most likely available weekdays in the morning/early afternoons except when one of my jobs needs me, hours have been scarce so please message me and I can let you know for sure a day if you need someone 😌 Unfortunately I can’t care for pets in my place, I have two dogs and my apartment is small. But I’m willing to care for pets in others homes if needed.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old and have assisted neighbors and relatives with care when they needed help. I’ve worked with all types of personalities and know how to love and treat them while meeting them where they’re at. I currently work evenings 2:30pm-11:30pm Saturday through Tuesday. I’m happy to provide any necessary care before I have to leave for work around 1pm, after work around 12:30am, or on any of the days I’m off! I have a small, fenced back yard for any quick potty trips but am keen on taking many walks. I live in a pet free environment and can ensure the highest quality care with your fur babies!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 6 years and have pretty much grown up around animals. I’ve cared for dogs, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters, birds, chickens, and even a turtle, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets and different personalities. I’ve also had hands-on animal care experience through an internship and volunteer work at a wildlife rehabilitation center. I know every pet has their own routine and little quirks, so I always try to stick as closely as possible to whatever they’re used to at home. I’m comfortable with things like oral medications, special feeding routines, playtime, walks, and just hanging out with pets who need some extra company while their person is away. I currently work part-time, so pet care fits well into my schedule. I like having the flexibility to spend time caring for pets. My availability can vary week to week, but I’ll always make sure we’re on the same page about scheduling ahead of time. I try to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they can feel comfortable while you’re away. I pay attention to their body language and personality, especially during the first few visits, and let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’m also careful to follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, or anything else they may need.

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 .
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 .
