“Justelle always go above and beyond. This is the second time we have had travel delays and she is accommodating and responsive when we are trying to figure out how to pivot when a flight delay keeps us from getting home when expected. Our pets are so happy and our home is tidier than when we left it. It is a welcomed sight when traveling with delays.”
“This was our first time using Dmytro and it was great! Fast and consistent communication, worked well with multiple changes to the visit and sent pictures of two happy dogs!”
“Wilma was absolutely fantastic. My pup does not do well with strangers but, when we met Wilma, there's wasn't even a growl. When I came back home my dog was relaxed and showed absolutely no sign of stress. I would definitely hire Wilma again!”
“Jenna was able to watch our pup Zoey while we were away for the weekend. She did a marvelous job and had such detailed notes for us. Amazing! So appreciated her willingness to work on some training. Zoey was very happy! Would definitely recommend.”
“Wendy was incredible! She’s so communicative and goes the extra mile to make sure my cat has a good experience. She’s such a natural with animals and she is definitely my cat’s favorite sitter.”
“Junbo is fantastic! I can't recommend her enough. She took care of my cat and high energy puppy when I was out of town for a week. She not only took my dog for a walk but took him to different hikes everyday. She takes care of the pets not just out of responsibility and accountability but also the enthusiasm and joy of being out with them. She truly enjoys the company and loves the pets she's tasked to take care of. She sends lots of photos and videos and gives frequent updates on their daily routine. Again, I highly recommend her for all the services that she offers. Will certainly hire her gain for house sitting. Thank you Junbo!!!”
“Georgia did a great job taking care of our pets while we were away for Christmas. It was our first time out of the country and I was very worried about leaving my babies, but Georgia made me feel at ease and was an excellent communicator. She sent pictures and updates every day. My babies took to her right away. We will definitely be asking Georgia to house/pet sit for us again!”
“Dale took very good care of our cat Gizmo. She stayed at our house for a week, kept us regularly informed with updates and pictures, was extremely responsive, and we came home to a clean house. She managed our cat's initial "separation anxiety" and was successful in calming her down and ultimately winning her affection. We would book Dale again.”
“Anna was an excellent pet sitter. She gave our cat and dog very special attention, met our dog’s high energy level needs, and left everything in great condition. We have healthy pets but Anna made sure to take a thorough history including allergies and underlying medical conditions. I could not recommend her services more.”
“Taylor was fantastic with our nervous dog and showed so much patience and compassion in helping her adjust. She house sat for us for two weeks and was very communicative and respectful of our home, as well as great with our dog and cat. You can tell she loves animals and has a lot of experience in caring for them. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Taylor again.”
“Kristen was wonderful for my 9 day last minute house sitting request! Her communication was amazing, the way she handled my dog’s particular temperament left me completely at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again!”
“Alyson was great! She was communicative, arrived on time, my dog warmed up to her right away, she kept me updated with photos, and all and all was very sweet and conscientious. Highly recommend and would love to book with her again!”
“Hailey was so great! She was very loving to our pups. She was understanding and attentive to all of their needs. She sent frequent updates, was extremely clean and respectful, and we felt very safe with her taking care of our dogs and house. Would definitely have her dog / house sit again!”
“Elianna was super communicative, arrived on time, and kept me updated for the entirety of her stay! Nugget seemed to love her and will definitely book again.”
About: I’m Roh - a doctor-in-training, who is really just on here to spend more time with dogs & cats! I've taken care of friends' & family's dogs my whole life on & off - sometimes dogsitting, at other times walks, feeding them, quick potty breaks, and playing with them to keep them entertained. I am always so happy to be around furry friends & cannot wait to meet yours! I know I’m new on here & you might be nervous about that; I’m happy to do an in-person meet & greet where we can meet in a public space, I can meet your dog, and we can make sure we all get along! NOTE: I know my current rates are under market average. This is a new client promo, available for the next 3 months, while I set up here! I work full time Monday to Friday from 8 to 5 (rarely 6pm), but I’m available during the rest of the time. I think of myself as a great affordable fit for people going on short vacations or work trips, or if you just want an easy night in. On weekdays I can stop by early in the morning around 6:30-7am for a drop-in or a quick walk, followed by a longer walk in the evening with some playtime. On weekends I can dedicate a lot of my time to your pet! I can do up to 3 walks a day, if they prefer that. I am a big believer in respecting your residence. When petsitting, I keep things clean & will do my utmost best to leave your place as you left it! With your pet, I always try to strive for a mix of engagement & letting them chill, depending on their mood.
About: I've spent my entire life with large dogs, and I have extensive experience understanding their behaviors and body language. While I love small dogs too, my expertise lies primarily with larger breeds. I've worked in both shelters and clinics for several years and have had the privilege of assisting a few mama dogs in delivering healthy litters. Experienced with puppies, seniors, medication administration, and dogs requiring extra patience and individualized care. Your dog will have a great time while you're away! (Preferably dogs that are friendly with cats.) I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day to ensure your beloved pets are cared for safely and comfortably while you’re away. I can let your dog out for potty breaks in the yard and on walks as needed. I also have a kennel/crate available if they prefer a quiet space to relax. My home is spacious, providing plenty of room to play indoors and a full yard to play in. For pets that are comfortable around cats, they’ll have the opportunity to interact with my friendly resident cats.

James is great! This was his second time caring for our dog & two cats — we came home to pets who, though happy to see us, weren’t desperate to have us home… they were obviously well cared for. James is a good communicator, patient with our sometimes anxious dog, and won over our shy cats. Much appreciated!
Kristen was wonderful for my 9 day last minute house sitting request! Her communication was amazing, the way she handled my dog’s particular temperament left me completely at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again!
Betsy was fantastic! She was taking care of two dogs and a cat for me, and everything about her care was top notch. The dogs got lots of walks and play time, and my kitty got lots of cuddling. She took excellent care of the house as well - including leaving it perfectly clean when I got home. I'm really impressed and very grateful!
Dahae did a great job with our pups Pickle and Kiwi! They can be territorial but they both warmed to her quickly. She was able to come over for a pre sit meet and greet and we knew right away she was going to be great! She left our apartment tidy and the pups happy! We got photos from her every day and felt comfortable having her stay. Would book her again for future pet sitting!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bellevue on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 8,292 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bellevue. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bellevue. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
