“Kennedy was awesome. She was there for us when we had to book last minute because the person who was supposed to watch our dog bailed unexpectedly. She was receptive, considerate, kind, and communicative. I should mention that our baby is an English Bulldog. Kennedy understands the different needs of brachiocephalic breeds. And she was able to go that extra mile for us to properly care for our fur baby!”
“First time using rover. Was very satisfied, Richard responded to all communication in a very timely manner, sent pictures and did everything I asked. Would not hesitate to use him again. Thank you Richard!”
“This was our second time using Natalie and we will use her time and again! She tackles our complicated 5 pet situation with ease and I feel confident entrusting her with their care. Thank you Natalie!”
“We can't say enough great things about Brittany. She's very caring,friendly,knowledgeable about pets (she's a Vet Tech!), thorough,and really communicative. Giving us numerous updates while we were away. She's forward thinking, asking us questions that we hadn't given thought to. Anyone using her is lucky to have watch their pets!”
“Truly the best and most caring sitting we’ve had from rover (and we have had a lot of great sitters from rover too!) always sent pictures and detailed updates that made us feel so at ease.”
“Evan did a wonderful job watching my two rescue babies and our home for 5 nights. He is kind, reliable and detail oriented. His communication is clear and timely. I was able to relax while I was away because I knew they were in loving and capable hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“We’re very grateful that we were able to find Milica to watch our dog and home for our week-long trip. She was very communicative and considerate and took great care of our diabetic dog, including administering her insulin shots and adjusting the dose based on our communication during the day. Our shy dog warmed up quickly and it’s clear that Milica makes animals feel safe and cared-for.”
“Our boys love people.. so we were happy to find Molly who could house sit with them. (normally people think cats can be left alone but our boys are social!) While we were gone we received updates and photos to let us know how they were doing. We came home to a cleaned up house and happy kitties. Will definitely reach out to Molly if we need sitting in the future.”
“Jackie is a fantastic sitter! Dexter warmed up to her quickly and she took such good care of him. She was extremely attentive to his needs and great at communicating and providing updates on how he was doing each day. I really appreciate how she went the extra mile to make sure Dexter felt comfortable, safe and happy! It was amazing to have peace of mind while being away that my dog was in great hands. Will definitely be hiring Jackie again!”
“Mike was great! He was on time and stayed with our puppy for at least an hour each time he stopped to let her out. He gave her a puzzle toy each time and made sure she got enough playtime. And he made sure she went to the bathroom before leaving. Great sitter! We will definitely book him again!”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
“Jen was a wonderful sitter for our dog! She kept us updated. Our dog has anxiety about new people and is on medications for this. Jen was very understanding and did amazing with her. Highly recommend!”
About: First, I have had cats in my home my whole life. I have had dogs in my home early in childhood. I watched the dogs of my friends and family throughout all of childhood and early into adult hood. Currently I just have one orange kitty and volunteer actively in my community! I am happy to hold down the fort while you are out of town to keep your furry family fed, watered and well loved (including lots of brushing if your animal enjoys that!!) ! I've never had a problem with any pet! Even the quote unquote "mean dogs"! I'll treat your home with the upmost care and respect, and do offer cleaning services as well! Heading out for an emergency? Holidays? Need your bathroom "terminally cleaned"? Dishes taken care of after you leave me with the care of your pet and trust of your home? I can make sure the day of your return that your Shower, tub, sink, toilet etc are cleaned to hospital grade standards! All dishes cleaned, vents dusted, ceiling fan blades wiped (I'm tall lol!) Your dog and or cats will be given round the clock care and attention you expect as if I was treating it like my own animal. Pay or no pay!! While currently I am only offering house sitting services, you can expect dogs to be taken out as frequently as needed. Walked, fed on time and cuddled. Poop removed from yard, etc. It's not a house cleaning service, but aside from sitting for your loved one, I will also be a guest in your home and will make sure it's tidy and kept tidy! Cats litter boxes will be checked multiple times daily, fed on time, and water kept fresh. Safety trust and environment.. I have a clean background, clearances, and volunteer for nonprofits of all kinds in my community! I am a good community member and your home and loved furry family member will always be safe and well cared for under my care!
“We had the absolute best experience with Kaylee as our dog and cat sitter! She took such amazing care of our pets and made being away from home completely stress-free. She sent us tons of pictures and regular updates, which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. It was clear from every update that our pets were happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. On top of being wonderful with our pets, Kaylee was incredibly respectful of our home. We came back to the house cleaner and neater than we left it, which was such a pleasant surprise! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% book Kaylee again in a heartbeat! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, communicative, and responsible to watch their pets and home”
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. I love staying active and going on walks so I can adjust to your pets needs and wants. I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats, old and young. I am a graduate student so on off days I am able to spend time just hanging out with the animals as needed. I am currently attending graduate school. I am completely free most weekends and Mondays with a few exceptions. I am available to stay nights for dog sitting and am free in the late afternoons all week. I can follow any instructions given for each pet. I know each pet may have different needs and can adjust as needed. If pets have routines I will work my best to ensure to keep them on track and can crate in needed.
“Teneisha took great care of my cat, Hank, at my place, while I was away for a couple of weeks. She sent just the right amount of updates and pics, and my slow-to-warm-up cat cozied up to her quickly.”
“Riley was so great when she stayed with our dogs. She kept us very updated with pictures. We felt very comfortable with her staying over and watching our pups. Definitely will use her again!!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Bellevue is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bellevue
I can't say enough good things about Elayna. She checked in often and sent plenty of photos, so I always knew how Finlay was doing. I didn't have to wonder or worry, which meant a lot after a rough experience with a previous sitter. I'd been anxious about leaving Finlay. She also left a report card at the end that genuinely made me smile. It was fun and thoughtful, and you can tell she pays attention. I'm really appreciative of the peace of mind she gave me. Finlay loved her and so did I. Would absolutely book again.
Nikki was absolutely amazing with Shakira! This was our first time leaving her while traveling, and Nikki made us feel completely at ease with frequent updates, pictures, and videos. She was incredibly patient with Shakira’s picky eating and all her little quirks, followed her routine carefully, and gave her so much attention, playtime, and cuddles. It was obvious that Shakira became very comfortable with her. We would absolutely trust her with Shakira again.
Alyssa took such great care of our dog Koa! She was very reliable and communicative and we really appreciated the frequent updates and photos while we were away. She also took great care of our home. We felt completely comfortable knowing Koa and our home were in good hands. We look forward to having Alyssa dog sit for us again in the future.
Valerie house sat our Airedale Terrier for four days while my husband and I were traveling with family, and she did an amazing job! She exceeded our expectations by giving our dog multiple walks, play sessions, and tons of attention each day, and kept us updated with lots of pictures and clear communication. When we returned, our house was just as we had left it. Without question, our dog was well cared for and we would happily work with Valerie again in the future!
Jeremy stayed in our home for a week with our Husky and two elderly cats - one cat requires both an oral and a topical medication and our Husky requires an oral medication. Jeremy provided excellent care and at least daily check ins with photos. Our home was super clean when we returned home and could tell that Jeremy tends to both the pets and home he is caring for like his own. Jeremy also handled more bizarre situations that were encountered (like a dead possum in our backyard) super well. Communication from the start of our request for a meet and greet was exemplary. Quick responses and always right on time at the agreed upon time even when using public transportation as the primary mode of transit. We would love to welcome Jeremy back into our home and would be so grateful to have him care for our animals and house again in the future.
Madison was absolutely amazing with our dog Tato! She was very communicative the entire time from before the booking to during and on our way home. She completely catered to our his needs and made us feel very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her! I already booked with her again!
The best! Shaina watched our cat and dog while we were on a trip and was amazing as usual. We received so many pictures and videos of them having such a nice time. Our dog gets separation anxiety and he seemed to warm up to her in a couple days so he quickly realized how wonderful she is too. She also helped with extra some house things while we were gone! I cannot say enough great things. We’re lucky to know our boys are in such good hands while we’re away. Thank you for everything Shaina!! 😊

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.

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.

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.
