“Lizz is amazing; she took this booking last minute and had plenty of time to meet Kade twice before the booking to make sure he warmed up to her. She was so nice and patient with Kade and it looks like they had a great time! Thank you!!”
“Camille was very sweet and caring to my cat! She really cared about the specific routine we have and sticking to the instructions and tips I left. She left detailed notes through the app and lots of adorable pictures. It was good to know my cat was comfortable with her and enjoyed having someone there to care for her while I was gone.”
“She was absolutely wonderful! Attentive, communicative, and so thoughtful about sending pictures of my kitties, just as I’d asked. One of my cats decided to take it upon himself to demolish a potted plant while I was away, and Willow cleaned up the whole mess without hesitation—and rescued my plant. When I got home, both of my kitties were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Paulina is such a kind and sweet person. She was cheerful about helping me last minute and was prompt and responsible while being kind and gentle with my puppy and older dog who require different energy levels!”
“I’ve hired Meredith several times now to take care of my two cats, and she’s been wonderful every time. She’s reliable, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. I always feel at ease knowing she’s looking after my cats and my home while I’m away. She gives them plenty of pets and treats, keeps me updated, and I can tell they’re happy and well cared for when I return. I’ll definitely keep booking her for future trips—highly recommend!”
“I was extremely skeptical about hiring a sitter for my cats while we were on vacation as I can be very overprotective and hadn’t ever left them with someone who wasn’t a close friend or relative but Flannery completely changed my opinion and I will definitely be hiring her again if the need arises. She was absolutely incredible from the very beginning. She set up a meet and greet with us and immediately put my partner and I at ease with her pet care knowledge and obvious love and compassion for animals. My cats liked her right away and every visit she sent photos and videos of them playing or eating and provided detailed updates on their actions and behavior. It was a great comfort to know the they were so well looked after while we were away. Thank you so much Flannery!!”
“Annie took on our two spoiled indoor kitties. She was on time every day, reported on the kitties, and sent some really cute pictures. Everything was shipshape when we got home. We were thankful to have such conscientious TLC for “the boys” while we were out of town.”
“Azure was wonderful with our three cats! She was timely and excellent with communication. It was obvious that she was passionate about taking care of them. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
“Arianna was awesome, able to come meet our cats and start drop-in visits on short notice while we were away for vacation. She was proactive, responsive, genuinely sweet with the cats, great about sending pics, and took care of everything we needed. Thank you so much Ari! Will definitely book again next time.”
“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”
“Our small dog can be skittish around strangers, but Emily made her feel comfortable while we were away. We will definitely reach out to Emily again in the future!”
“Sophia was fantastic! One of my cats got so stressed missing us that he ended up having blood in his urine - she spotted it and communicated to me right away so we could get him to a vet and get meds. She was a great communicator and clearly very sweet and caring with my boys. I will definitely book her again! Thank you!”
“Rene did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was out of town for the weekend! I felt they were in good hands and received updates and pictures from the visit. Thank you Rene!”
About: Hello! my name is Gabe, I have over 15 years of experience taking care of dogs, cats, and some farm animals. I am available full-time and would be glad to take care of your fur children and home. my house-sitting service rate includes other tasks such as mail pick up, taking out trash bins, watering, etc. Feel free to ask for anything else or a more tailored quote for long stays! And most importantly, your critters will have plenty of playtime and loving company with the utmost care. I am a seasonal park ranger, I naturally love animals and respect them. I have worked with the federal government and I am also a military veteran- which means such agencies require background checks and reliable employees. I am a friendly professional, responsible, and trustworthy. I am humbled to help people feel comfortable and at ease knowing they can trust me to take care of their home and furry family members. I am available full time any day of the week for check-ins, and overnight stays/house sitting. Traveling farther distances is no issue for multiple day stays. I make sure to follow the pet's normal routine for a stress-free environment that would keep them comfortable as they would be on a normal day.
About: I've had pets my entire life, so as soon as I was old enough, I started dog sitting and walking. I love animals of all kind and can't wait to meet yours! The following is my technical experience in the field: Maggie (my own dog): Maggie was the third dog I've ever had and the first of which I was able to truly help with. We got her when she was a puppy and she's a Vizsla so she has always had boundless energy. I helped with her training when she was a puppy and she's pulled the leash her whole life so I have experience with that as well. Again, she has always been extremely energetic. In sum, Maggie has helped me learn how to: - Care for a puppy - Walk a dog that pulls - Entertain a dog with boundless energy Kona My professional experience with dog walking and sitting was with an elder dog named Kona. I worked with him for just about 4 years part time. Kona had two parents who both worked full time jobs and had a horse at another location so I would go over when they were gone all day and spend time with him, take him on short walks, and occasionally to the dog park. Kona really helped me to understand the intricacies of working with an elder dog, and although he's gone now, I think about the time I spent with him regularly. Kona helped me learn how to: - Care for an elder dog - Stimulate a dog with limited ability _ Read a dogs body language and have patience with them I am currently in full time school and not working in a formal setting. I am unavailable most mid-days however I'm completely free on the weekends. The following is a schedule of my open availability: Monday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Tuesday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Wednesday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Thursday: 6:00am-11:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Friday: 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm to 10:00pm Saturday: 6:00am-10:00pm Sunday: 6:00am-10:00pm As a pre-note, I wanted to say that I have an official work resume with references if you would like to see that before we meet in person. Dog Walking I do not have any supplies of my own however I have used many different types of leash and harness in the past. I am physically able and comfortable walking long or short distances at varying paces. On longer walks, I will carry water and dog bags with my the entire time. Pet Sitting I will maintain your pets schedule and follow any guidelines of being in your space. I do not offer dog sitting in my home as I live in a building with three other people, I would be more than happy to watch your dog in your home. I am open to meeting your dog with you there before the official sitting date as I know some dogs are sensitive to new people. I am comfortable feeding and entertaining your pup as I have been around dogs my entire life. I will also be aware of any emergency contact information that would be necessary in an emergency. House Sitting I will ensure the home is secure, and perform basic tasks like collecting mail, watering plants, and maintaining cleanliness. I understand that I will be in your space and am open to following any rules you might have for your home.

Jewel did a great job taking care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation! Even our one usually very shy cat absolutely loved her! She was very communicative and sent lots of great daily updates and pictures. We would not hesitate to book Jewel again. Thank you!

Azure was happy to do a meet and greet for our first time using her services. She and our cats clicked right away!! She did everything we asked of her, communicated the entire time and sent great updates and photos from her drop-ins. We came home to happy and relaxed cats which made us happy and relaxed pet parents. We will definitely be requesting Azure again in the future.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Bellingham on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bellingham. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
