“Jessica has done incredible job of taking care of our pets the last few months during our summer travels. It is so nice to know that our Fur babies are always so well taken care of she does so incredible with them.”
“Amanda accepted a last minute booking from us and was so amazing with our Aussie who is very anxious and can be quite energetic at times. We would recommend Amanda for all your drop in needs !”
“Yuri went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she do a fantastic job caring for our cats—who are normally very skittish—but she also took the time to really earn their trust and make them feel at ease. Our cats were clearly happy and well cared for, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation completely worry-free. On top of that, she was incredibly conscientious: she went the extra mile keeping our automated litter machines clean and even took care of our packages while we were gone. We were so impressed with her attention to detail and level of care, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Always follows directions, takes good care of my cat, and leaves my home in good condition! I always trust Kendal whenever I need someone to take care of my cat while I’m gone!”
“Chelsea was wonderful with Hagrid! She was so sweet and attentive with him. She took him out for potty breaks, fed him, and spent time playing with him. Hagrid seemed very happy and comfortable with her. I would definitely book with Chelsea again! 😊🤍”
About: I have loved animals my whole life! I took care of neighbor animals when I was younger and now pet sit often for family, friends, and coworkers. I work as an educational assistant which means I work September to June during the day. I am able to be with your animals before and after work. My schedule is 8:40-3:40. Please reach out for special arrangements. I care for pets in their home to keep them comfortable with their usual surroundings. I will give them all the love! Whatever their needs may be I will make sure they get them.
“Kayla was fantastic! Our kitty hates when we leave and she communicated so well about how he was doing and sent pictures so we could see him :) He isn’t the friendliest yet she was so comfortable with him. Would highly recommend!”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two pups of my own. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in a someone else's care, and I treat every animal I look after with the same love, attention, and care I'd want for my own. Over the years, I've raised and cared for puppies, senior dogs, and rescue dogs, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved is always my priority. Your animals are your pride and joy, and when they're in my care, I'll treat them like they're mine too! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. Happy to schedule in drop in visits when needed accordingly to a schedule that works best for you. I care deeply for the pets within my car and strive to make sure they feel loved and safe in your absence. Happy to provide photos too (I always know I enjoy photos of my puppies when I'm away!)
“Callaway is very communicative and easy to work with. Unfortunately my cat was not very nice to her (unforeseen) and she took it in stride with so much gracious understanding.”
About: I'm a Bothell-based creative currently working as a cat sitter with Whiskers at Home, where I've completed extensive in-person and virtual training, including Feline Fundamentals and a Fear Free Pet Sitter Certification that covers both cats and dogs. While I'm a cat person at heart, I fell in love with dogs when my sister got a puppy over two years ago. I live close by, and her doggy Luna has become my best friend. I take her on daily walks, spoil her with love and treats, and have made many furry friends around the neighborhood thanks to her, always ready for pets and playdates. Those walks have taught me to read a dog's body language and to know when a pup needs a break or a drink of water. I've also befriended local outdoor cats, much to my own glee! I love going on long walks, letting dogs be dogs, with plenty of time for sniffs and enrichment. I'm comfortable with leashes and harnesses, feedings, potty breaks, and playtime. I'm also happy to give medication in food, and I'm open to other kinds case by case after the pet parent shows me how, with my Fear Free training to draw on. I send photo and message updates after every visit and will always keep your house keys secure. I've also had pet rats, fish, and have cared for guinea pigs and hamsters in the past. I'm excited to bring this same spirit to the pets and families of Rover in Bothell, Kirkland, and neighboring areas. I'd be happy to start with a meet and greet, so your pet and I can get to know each other! My schedule is very flexible, with my Whiskers at Home role being part-time. I'm open during the week, weekends, and holidays. I’m a graphic designer by trade and do freelance work on a flexible schedule. I’d love to build bonds with neighborhood pets, growing my pet sitting services and skills. I’m available for walks while pet parents are at work, for kitty feedings and enriching playtime, and everything in between! :) I take animal safety very seriously and prioritize it in every interaction. I'm happy to come to your home for visits and walks, and I'll meet your pet's needs for low stress and comfortable experiences. Overnights are also an option once I've met your pet and we've built a routine that works for them. I will always follow your instructions, monitor pets closely, and make sure they’re happy and secure at all times. For ease of mind, I have a Fear Free Pet Sitter Certification, along with Feline Fundamentals training, so my main focus is ensuring your pet is as fear-, anxiety-, and stress-free as possible while providing attentive care.
“Caroline exceeded my expectations as a pet sitter. She maintained excellent communication, was reliably on time, and followed all care instructions with attention to detail. Most importantly, she showed genuine care for our kitty, providing thoughtful updates and ensuring our kitty was happy and well looked after. I would definitely work with her again.”
“Yi did an amazing job of checking in on our kitty each day while we were on vacation. She sent lots of great videos and photos where our cat was clearly enjoying her company and excited to see her. We made some specific requests around food and water that Yi did a great job of following. We would book again with Yi.”
“Cortney was amazing with our pup Rue!!! She was responsive and detail oriented and made sure to send us updates on how everything went! I came home from work to a happy dog! Definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Kathryn dropped by twice a day for 3 days and took amazing care of our 3 cats. She even got out shyest cat to play! She cleaned after them and followed our instructions. She was very professional and sweet with the kitties”
“Kumiko was a great dog sitter! She was prompt, took care to listen and take note of all the info given to her, communicated well and thoroughly, and seemed to genuinely enjoy our dogs. We were so happy to know our dogs were well cared for.”
“Krystal took such great care with my kitties while I was gone for a week. She was very attentive and my cats did not appear stressed at all upon return. Would definitely rebook again!”
“Maren is timely and went above and beyond helping with my mini lop bunny! I really appreciate her coming through during my first week postpartum as a new mom. I would highly recommend her! 🤗”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bothell
I like Chelse's energy and positivity, and my cats also seem to like her. Well, Milo likes everybody. But I can tell from the photos that everybody got attended to, fed, played with, petted, and/or brushed. I loved seeing the pictures every day while I was out. I would book Chelse again.
Jade did a great job looking after our diabetic cat Zoe while we were away. She was very responsive and great with communication. Came on time for daily medicine and pilled our kitty, who is not very easy going with pill taking. Zoe is on Bexacat medication (not insulin) and even though the pill is flavored, still have to shove it down her throat because she doesn't like the flavor. Jade gave her pills no problem and played with her as well.
Cortney was great - I had made a mistake in communicating access information, and Cortney was proactive and professional and made sure my cat was well cared for while I was out of town despite the hiccups fully from my own fault. I would not hesitate to have her watch my cat again!
Caroline was great with my cat Zelda. She was very easy to communicate with, and after meeting at my home once, she quickly learned Zelda’s routine and everything she needed to know. Zelda is a pretty shy cat, and Caroline was very patient with her. She gave Zelda plenty of space and never tried to force interaction. After a few days, Zelda finally started opening up to her, which was really nice to see. She took great care of Zelda’s food, water, and litter box, and even helped vacuum around the house. She also sent me lots of photos every day and kept me updated on how Zelda was doing. I really appreciated how attentive and thoughtful she was. Caroline is super nice, patient, and caring, and I felt very comfortable having her take care of Zelda. I would definitely ask her to help again in the future.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
