“I couldn’t be happier with the care Massie provided for my cat! From the start, she was professional, communicative, and clearly a true animal lover. She sent me daily updates with photos, and I could tell my cat was happy and relaxed. Even my usually shy kitty warmed up to her quickly. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter , I’ll definitely be booking her again!🥰❤️❤️🐈🐈”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and have experience with both dogs and cats of all different ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve cared for seniors, special-needs pets, anxious animals, and pets who need oral medications or a little extra patience. I’m big on following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime, and all the little things they’re used to at home. Some pets want to be attached to your hip, while others need time and space to warm up, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. I have two cats of my own and have had cats throughout my life, so I’m very comfortable with cat care as well as dogs. I’m used to everything from easygoing pets to the stubborn, mischievous, and “will absolutely eat that if you turn around for two seconds” variety. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll pay attention to your instructions, keep you updated, and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I spend most of my free time at home and have a pretty flexible routine, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, playtime and company. We always start the day with a morning walk before I head to work, and I’m usually home by 3pm for the rest of the afternoon and evening. When I’m not home, my husband usually is, so there’s typically someone around to keep an eye on things and give your pet some company. I can sometimes accommodate short-notice requests, and I live right next to two parks in a safe neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. My home is kept pretty pet-safe — my two cats are professional troublemakers, so they’ve made sure we don’t leave much out that curious pets can get into. It’s just my husband and me at home, so there aren’t lots of unfamiliar people coming and going. We have a fully fenced backyard, and the house is mostly hardwood and tile, so scratches, muddy paws, and normal pet messes aren’t something I stress about. If your pet needs their own space, they can also have an entire room to themselves for a quiet, comfortable place to relax.

About: I have been around and caring for dogs for most of my life because either I or a family member has always had one. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs through my work at the Humane Society, where I interact with dogs of different ages, personalities, energy levels, and behavior needs. I’m currently attending dog training school, which has helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, leash handling, basic commands, and positive training techniques. I currently focus on dog walking, drop-in visits, and doggy daycare. I enjoy making sure dogs get the exercise, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and care they need while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, favorite things, fears, triggers, and what helps them feel comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages during their care. If you’re happy with my service, a written review is always greatly appreciated and helps future pet parents feel more comfortable booking with me. 🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and doggy daycare throughout the week. My availability may vary by day, but I do my best to accommodate different schedules and routines. Feel free to message me about the dates and times you need, and I’ll let you know what I have available. I live in an apartment, but I make sure dogs receive plenty of walks, exercise, potty breaks, and attention. I always follow the owner's instructions and take the time to learn each dog's routine and needs. I currently volunteer with the Humane Society and Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, where I work with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and stress-free experience for every dog in my care. I am also pursuing a degree in psychology and will be starting the Karen Pryor Dog Trainer Foundations course. My long-term goal is to become a service dog trainer, so I'm passionate about continuing to learn and build experience working with dogs.

About: Experienced and dependable pet sitter with a lifelong background in animal care, having owned and cared for small to medium-sized pets since age 6. I’ve provided pet sitting for family members’ large dogs and cats, handling feeding, playtime, and daily routines with care and attention. I also have hands-on experience raising kittens from just days old, including bottle feeding and monitoring their health. I genuinely love working with animals—especially fluffy ones—and prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾 I am currently seeking pet sitting opportunities and have a flexible schedule during the week, allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I work all day Saturday, Sunday, and wednesday; I work half days Monday and Tuesday and I am off thursday and Friday. I enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize creating positive, calm interactions—whether that’s playing, comforting anxious pets, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or any messes, and giving them attention through playtime, petting, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I also make sure doors, gates, and safety areas are secure before leaving.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was kid. I've helped raise 1 Yorkie Terrier and 2 Shih Tzu's, I've also taken care several Cats and Larger dogs for client's. While I'm new to Rover I'm not new to Pet care. I currently work as a Real Estate Agent, which means I'm always on the run and in between Seattle and Tacoma, Drop it's and walks are my way for taking a break in between those events Pets will be taken care of to your specification. Prior to the walk/drop in I'll reach out to you directly to see if there is anything specific needed for today's walk/drop in. Afterwards a short message is sent from me outlining the events that may have occurred during the visit/walk
“Lucy made my trip out of town feel so much easier. She did an amazing job caring for Josie and sent updates that made me feel like my cat was safe and cared for while I was away. Definitely recommend!”

“Shelli was able to fill my last minute request and I’m so grateful! She’s a great communicator and was patient and engaging with my shy dog. I would book with Shelli again!”

About: I care for my own dog daily and understand how important routines, patience, exercise, and attention are for keeping dogs comfortable and happy. I’m familiar with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe in a calm environment. I’m dependable, communicative, and will provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their dog is being well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m available weekday evenings and all weekend, so I have time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and giving your pet the attention and care they deserve. I focus on building trust and helping every pet feel comfortable in their environment. I use positive reinforcement to reward good behavior and improvement, pay close attention to each pet’s needs, and make sure they get plenty of potty breaks!
“Jess has been wonderful taking care of our two big labs, Lando and Zion! Great communication and updates! Even when Zion tore up a vest (my fault as I left it too close to his crate), Jess was great and confirming his safety, communicating about the incident with us, and taking care of the issue! Definitely would book again!”

About: I’m a Samoyed owner with hands-on experience caring for large, energetic dogs. I’m comfortable with strong pullers, long walks, high-energy play, feeding, basic routines, and keeping dogs safely supervised. I understand that every dog has their own personality and boundaries, so I always follow the owner’s instructions and take time to learn each dog’s routine and preferences. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to provide plenty of exercise for dogs who need it! I’m usually available 7 days a week. Same-day bookings are welcome! Please send your request at least 6 hours before your preferred start time. My schedule is flexible, so feel free to reach out if you have any special timing needs. Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including preferred walking routes, leash and harness routines, interactions with other dogs, and any behaviors or triggers I should watch for. I keep dogs leashed throughout walks unless specifically instructed otherwise in a safe and appropriate area. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos during or after each walk.

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my experience, calm confidence, and genuine dedication to each dog’s individual needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages having grown up with several rescue dogs. I also understand that dogs thrive on routine, so I work hard to maintain their usual schedule and provide plenty of attention, play, and exercise based on their energy level. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, I adapt my care to make them feel secure and loved while you're away. I am currently a collage student who is taking online classes at the moment, so I have a pretty flexible schedule to adapt to your pet care needs. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are at the core of how I care for pets in their homes. I always begin by carefully reviewing and following any care instructions provided, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and behavioral notes. I double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure at all times to prevent accidents or escapes. I also make it a priority to keep the environment clean and pet-friendly—regularly refreshing water, tidying up feeding areas, and safely storing pet supplies. I avoid introducing any new items or treats without the owner’s approval and make sure the space remains familiar and stress-free for the pet.
About: I have owned and cared for multiple dog breeds, I dog sit a ton for friends and family. I love providing a safe and loving environment for your precious fur baby’s.

I have a fenced yard and I also have a 4 year old (neutered) male dog that loves to have play dates. I live in a nice housing development with sidewalks which enables safe dog walking. I send multiple updates and pictures to you while you’re away. It is important your pets are friendly with other dogs and well socialized. I do slow introductions with my dog to make sure they are comfortable with each other. Safety is my top priority so any dog showing aggression will be separated. Dogs will be fed separately for safety. Please have your dogs Rover profile filled out and up to date with care instructions and vet info.

“We are so lucky to found Brittany! Her and her daughter took such great care of our cat. We appreciated the detailed updates and lots of photos/videos. In addition to proving our cat with such great attention, his food and potty area were cleaned. We had such a worry free vacation. We highly recommend her to sit your fur baby, no doubt!!!”

Trust! Abbey is everything I wanted to find!! I had some truly horrible experiences before. Now, I have found Abbey and she is kind, understanding, fun, patient, respectful, and follows all rules/requests! 10/10 truly amazing pet sitter unlike most on rover. She truly is what her profile says! She has brought me and my partner peace of mind knowing our baby is safe and enriched with her. Also, she brought in a package that arrived for me without even being asked! Very thoughtful. Thank you Abbey!

Shelby was an excellent pet sitter! She was very communicative throughout the entire time, keeping me updated and giving me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated how attentive and reliable she was, and it was clear my pet was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Shelby to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and thoughtful to look after their pets.

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 Auburn 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.

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 .
