“Linda was very attentive to Maisie and Oakley! Linda followed their early AM schedule and frequent outs. Lots of love and walks. Great communicator, with daily photos of events and text updates. Initially, Linda was very concerned about some quirks each dog had, but after talking to me, she realized those quirks were no cause for concern. Time away from home flew by and we came back to a peaceful and tidy home! Thank you, Linda!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life and have frequently cared for friends pets while they were away. I used to volunteer for the humane society and have had various trainings for proper pet handling. I work full time but love to get in early morning or late evening walks. Our schedule is pretty flexible so I can talk with you to find something that works best. I have a large fenced in yard and one friendly dog to play with. We can accommodate kennels as needed. Dogs are allowed everywhere in our home, but we have pet gates in place to separate by areas of the home if needed. When your dog stays with me they become a member of our family. My schedule is currently flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, whether they need an early morning walk, a midday potty break, dinner-time visit, or evening check-in. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and respect both your pet’s routine and your space. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and known escape artists, and I take time to make sure pets feel comfortable with me rather than rushing interactions. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Kristi did an amazing job watching my three dogs! She was able to win over our nervous Nobu and they became best friends. She communicated throughout the day to provide pup-dates and shared pictures with progress. Will book for future!”
“Abbie was absolutely wonderful! She has such a bright a bubbly personality, our dogs warmed up to her really fast which was surprising and made me feel really happy. Shes really great about sending photos and communicating throughout the time she was with them. I would absolutely recommend her.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Laura watching our dog, Karma! We were gone for a week for our destination wedding and we were able to fully enjoy our time knowing she was well taken care of and in good hands! Laura was very diligent about taking lots of notes over all of Karma’s routines and needs when we initially met with her and kept us updated on her each day that we were gone!”
“Candy was amazing with our dogs and sent plenty of pictures with updates so we wouldn’t miss them too much. Our dogs were so happy to get walks and love from her and we’d happily book her again next time!”
“Sierra did a great job watching our dogs and staying at our house for five nights! She took good care of our pups and our home while we were away. We really appreciated her help and would happily have her watch them again!”
“Sierra was INCREDIBLE with our two boy cats while we are away. She was very responsive, very considerate, and we could tell the cats felt very safe with her. She is the best!”
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends’ pets my whole life! Lived with, watched, and have been an active participant in the care of family dogs and friends pets for more years than I haven’t. I have a full time job. Currently off evenings and weekends. Can wake up early enough to provide morning care and after work and evening activities and care! I am open and flexible to any special care instructions. I focus on the health, wellbeing, and happiness of any animal under my care. You tell me what your pet needs and I will provide!
About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Having owned and cared for different breeds since childhood, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I work from home as a Project Controller, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. To ensure the best experience possible, I only accept one family’s dog at a time. This helps reduce anxiety and stress for both dogs and their owners while giving your pup my full attention. I’ll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐾❤️ I work remotely, which is perfect as it provides a lot of flexibility as well as allows me spend more time taking care of my dog as well of others. Doing daily walks, play games, giving them some love! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if you prefer and make other accommodations as needed.

The average cost of House Sitting in Bellevue is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $56 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bellevue walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bellevue maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Bellevue 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
