“This is the second time Adrienne has watched Gadget (our pup) and Spodey the tortoise. She is always prompt and a good communicator, and we come home to everything in order. Thank you!”
“Kaylin was great!! She was extremely flexible when we had to unexpectedly extend our vacation by a day. She sent pics of our pups and always answered quickly any time I messaged her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!😁”
“Karina was awesome! I received good daily pictures of my pets, they seemed happy and content. She was also very responsive when I asked questions while I was away. And I came back to my place just as I had left it. I definitely will recommend Karina and also rebook with her when I need to!”
“Hilda did a great job taking care of our dogs and house while we were away. She is friendly and laid back which are great traits to have around dogs. Hilda also did extra background research on our specific breeds and showed up knowledgeable and prepared. We felt very confident that our dogs would be well cared for.”
“Julianne was phenomenal! She took amazing care of my pups and house for the week. Great communication and regular updates. She even shoveled my driveway and corner sidewalk after a surprise snow - totally above and beyond. Highly recommend and will definitely book again.”
“Elisavt set a new bar of love for our dogs, communication, photos, cleanliness, safety. I highly recommend her services and we will be working with her for many years to come.”
“Amaya was awesome, she bonded quickly with Miley, was very responsible and communicative, just the right amount of pictures and feedback. She took good care of the house while I was gone and was respectful. I will definitely have Amaya care for Miley again. Thank you.”
“Becca pets sat for me in my home while I was out of the state for a few days, and she was great! My dog has a few special accommodations which she totally handled in stride. My boy has separation anxiety, but he seemed calm around Becca, and by the time I got home he was amazingly relaxed. She regularly sent me photos, updates, and was very responsive to communication. I’ll definitely be rebooking. Thank you Becca!”
“One of the best! So kind and caring, I felt zero worries with Amanda taking care of our dogs and our home. We were sent photos and updates daily, which we loved, and could tell the pups were tired and happy when we got back from our trip! Amanda is 10/10!!”
“Jessica was exceptional and did an amazing job taking care of not only our Boi, but also our home. She is trustworthy, respectful, and we would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone safe to leave their most precious friend with while traveling.”
“Nick was great! He came for a meet & great before finalizing plans which I really appreciate. My dog has some behavioral needs (mainly dog reactivity) that I wanted someone experienced to handle, and he followed all of our guidelines perfectly to make the stay go as smoothly as possible. I’ve been nervous to find a sitter who is comfortable managing dog reactivity and I’m relieved that I was able to find Nick who is willing to accommodate special needs like that.”
“Ashlyn was extremely caring, professional, and communicative. She went above and beyond to make sure our dog Otto was happy and kept to his routine. It is obvious how much she loves dogs and I will not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Jessica was wonderful! She helped us out after a last minute cancellation and was very communicative and easy to work with! She handled my disorganization so wonderfully. Will absolutely use her again in the future!”
“Leta was great with my cat Luka. When I arrived home from work he was resting on his king size bed(formerly my bed). I would highly recommend Leta to care for your cat in their home. Thank you Leta for taking great care of my friend Luka.”
About: I’ve always been a dog lover, and after more than 20 years of caring for them in different capacities, I still think getting to spend time with dogs is one of the best parts of life. They have so much to teach us about love, loyalty, and living in the moment. I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for friends, family, and neighbors for years, helping with everything from walks, feeding, and bathing to longer-term pet sitting. Because I work from home, I can spend the day with your dog, providing plenty of company, attention, walks, and playtime without leaving them alone for long stretches while you’re away. I also foster dogs through Animal Friends Alliance and have cared for dogs with a variety of needs, from puppies to older dogs recovering from major surgery. Fostering has made me even more patient, observant, and attuned to what each individual dog needs to feel safe and comfortable. I know how hard it can be to leave a beloved pet behind, so I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your dog is happy, getting lots of attention, and being cared for by someone who genuinely loves being around them. I work from home, so I’m around most of the day and love that it gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the dogs I’m caring for. I may step out for a few hours here and there for errands or other commitments, but otherwise I’m fully available to accompany your fur kids! Whether I’m pet sitting, stopping by for a visit, or taking your dog for a walk, I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions you leave closely. I’m attentive to safety, medications, meals, walks, playtime, and all the little things that help your pet feel comfortable and cared for. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is for your pet to be happy and relaxed and for you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands.
“Kristina did an absolute amazing job watching my two pups while I was gone for a weekend trip! She made sure that they got plenty of outside time and kept me updated with lots of pics while I was gone. They seemed super happy and well-taken care of when I got back. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: I am experienced with all sizes of dogs, from a Yorkshire mix to Great Dane. I have pet sat for 4 dogs and a senior cat simultaneously, ensuring each of them were cared for. I’m a college student with classes from 9am-3pm Monday to Thursday. Outside of class my schedule is very flexible and my weekends are open. I have a 5 year old cat named Colby Jack who I adopted 2 years ago. I treat all animals with love, compassion, and respect.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bellvue
As usual, I was apprehensive about leaving my pups for a week. It went very well, even with our rescue, which can be challenging. We got pictures every day that eased my worries. Adrienne was thoughtful enough to realize how tired we would be on our return. She made everything much easier for us when we got home. Pups were so glad to see us with no anxiety or issues. We hope she will accept us the next time we need a sitter.
From the first time we met Delia, we knew she would be a good fit for our zoo (including our anxious dog)! This was our first time leaving our dog with a stranger and Delia made us feel super comfortable! She sent lots of updates and communicated with us throughout the trip. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!
We were very pleased with Ashlyn, our house/dog sitter. When she met with us, she asked lots of questions and took notes. Our dog Fred obviously took to her right away even though he is wary of strangers. Although he was excited to see us return, he was sad to see Ashlyn leave. And she left our house much cleaner than it was when we left! We would definitely recommend her!

The average cost of House Sitting in Bellvue is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $47 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 Bellvue 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 Bellvue 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 Bellvue 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.
