“Kiley was an excellent sitter for our dog! Kiley was very communicative, provided daily updates, and was just a joy to work with. Our family strongly recommends Kiley for any pet watching needs.”
“Eliza made sure our two cats were well taken care of and gave them lots of love and attention. We loved knowing they were in good hands while we were out of town. Would definitely use her again!”
“USophia was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend and truly went above and beyond. We had her scheduled for three drop-in visits each day, and she was always on time and often stayed even longer than expected to spend extra time with our dog, which meant so much to us. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire weekend. She sent us lots of photos and updates at every visit, so we were able to see how our dog was doing and felt completely at ease while we were away. Sophia was incredibly kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Sophia with our dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”
“We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Jennifer took a last minute request to help out with Coogs and was super communicative and friendly! Takes a bunch of pictures throughout her visit. I definitely recommend!”
“Sydney was amazing! She took excellent care of my three cats. The most shy of the group even made friends with Sydney! Highly recommend Sydney if you are looking for someone to care for your pets.”
“Cheryl was easy to work with, and went above and beyond our expectations! She communicated with us contiguously throughout our vacation. We hopefully will be able to work with her again going forward :)”
“Jessica helped me out a lot when losing a family member. I had to travel a bunch unexpectedly and and was so available and dependable. It made a tough time much more manageable knowing my cats were taken care of.”
“I would definitely recommend Brianna for your pet care needs. She has excellent communication and provides photos at each visit. She is also dependable so one less worry while you are away.”
“If you are looking for a confident, outstanding, trustworthy person to come take care of your fur babies, look no further ! Keri takes amazing care of my large goofball Captain, not being scared away by his weird barking habits in the crate. Within two minutes of meeting her he was rolling over on his belly and giving her kisses! I don’t need to worry at all about the safety and care of my dog with Keri ❤️book with her !!!!”
“Haley accommodated Sally very last minute and was an absolute life saver! She gave her quality exercise and provided me with tons of photos and videos as usual. Super reliable and as always will definitely use her again :)”
About: Hi, my wife Ali and I have been taking care of and walking dogs for years. We have 3 small dogs and 2 small parrots of our own. We live in a house with our own private fenced in dog park in the back. My wife is always home as she works from home and I work overnight so your pet will never be alone. We love to care for all dogs or other animals! We have 2 young children so your dog must be good around kids as well. If you have any questions please message me. Unfortunately at the time we are not accepting any large breeds (dogs that stand really tall on 4 legs) unless they are a small puppy and are 35-40lbs or less. We also do not take dogs that mark all over the house, one accident is expected when nervous in a new environment and we understand. We do charge extra $20 if you run out of food or we need to feed your dog our own food because dog food is costly these days. We also will charge a $200 cleaning fee for dogs who do mark all over the house because as stated we do not take dogs that do this. We are am extremely flexible with pet schedules, as of right now we bring our own dogs out every 3-4 hours for potty breaks and playtime outdoors. We visit a local dog park and we also have a yard. We have our own yard and we will be outside with your dog on leash, never left unsupervised, safety for everyone is important to us. We will always be very transparent with you.
About: Owner of 3 yr old pomsky. What sets me apart is my experience caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and consistency, to senior dogs who require patience and gentle attention. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, while keeping their routine on track. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like family. Pet care is a natural part of my routine — I enjoy daily walks, outdoor time, and making space for play and cuddles. My schedule is flexible, so I can give pets the attention they need, whether that’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care. In my home, I create a safe and cozy environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable, with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely — from feeding schedules to exercise needs — so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to keep their day as normal and happy as possible while you’re away.
“This was my first time using Rover. If you happen to be considering someone in the area please do not look any further than Stephanie for your dog. She went above and beyond. She is very trustworthy and professional and even cleaned up the floors. I will be using her again and I can’t recommend her enough!!!”

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.
“We used to find a neighborhood youth to take care of our outdoor cat when we went away. Our cat is now older and needs transdermal medication applied to his ears twice a day - so 14 visits. It was time to find a reliable adult. Through Rover we connected with Jill who lives nearby and has her own senior cat. We could not be more satisfied with the care she provided. The daily notification of visits with photos were much appreciated - although they did make me miss my pet more. Thank you Jill!”

Gwen took care of my cat Oz for the second time while I was away on a longer 4-day trip. Like the first time she was prompt for requested drop in visits timing, provided full reports with play time, quick to communicate, and home was as clean as when I left. Highly recommend!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Bellingham on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,572 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Bellingham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
