“Michele took care of midday walks while our dog was with a sitter, and was great about sending each day's updates! Cheerful and accommodating; very reassuring to know he was having a good time and being looked after. :)”
“Fantastic from the meet and greet to the first visit when I spent the day traveling down to LAX for work. Sent a video when there was a sound my one pup made, pictures of both and just overall caring person looking after my boys. So grateful to have connected with Kevin!”
“Had a great experience with Jeannie. They were very communicative and sent lots of pictures. Cats are very happy and litter boxes, water and food are all in good shape. Will definitely use again.”
“Lauryn is awesome, kind, and attentive! I appreciate the communication and picture updates from her time with my cat. He looked so happy and comfortable with her. Lauryn is welcome to care for them anytime!”
“Harley did a great job with our kitties on super-short notice, including giving our cat Max his pill and doing a late night appointment. She was quick to come by, meet the cats, sort things out, and is very positive. And the kitties seem to like her! We'll definitely reach out to her again in the future.”
“Ashley was absolutely phenomenal with Magni and completely went above and beyond for him. Magni has had trouble with his eye and she made sure it stayed doctored the entire time. She took him on long walks so he could get out of the house and made sure he got all of the play time. We couldn't be more happy with Ashley and the time she spent with our boy. We will absolutely be requesting her again and recommending to everyone we know!”
“Karen took great care of my 2 cats! She sent frequent updates and pictures of them, which made me feel at ease while I was away. I was pleasantly surprised how fast my cats warmed up to her (they are VERY shy and often times are afraid of new people) but they were very affectionate and comfortable with Karen. Will definitely be booking with her in the future.”
“Paul, was absolutely amazing! Our cat Auggie loved him. We could have had a better sitter and we will absolutely have Paul take care of our pets in the future. I highly recommend him to anyone!”
“Maura was absolutely incredible and was so sweet to our girls. This was our first time using rover and Maura literally gave us the perfect experience. She was always on time, took care of the girls’ needs, and send us detailed updates! We loved that she took time to play with them and they warmed up to her quickly which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was such a blessing while we were gone!”
“Timothy always goes above and beyond for us, like bringing in our packages even though we didn't ask (thank you Timothy!!). Our cat Pepper loves him very much, which is saying something because she is a very shy girl. We always feel good leaving her in Timothy's care.”
“Anna was SO helpful and went above and beyond with our two cats while we were away. We accidentally locked them in a room and she helped them get out and made sure they had water and food. She sent pictures and videos. Would recommend her :)”
“Stephanie took great care of my 3.5 month old mini dachshund puppy (Siggi) for a few hours while I had to be away. Stephanie was prompt, communicative, and followed instructions. Best of all, she and Siggi got along very well and I'm glad he has a new reliable friend!”
“I recently hired Lucas to take care of my cats, Daisy and Frank, for four days while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with his services. From the very beginning, when I first reached out to him, Lucas was extremely communicative and friendly. He came over to get an overview of Daisy and Frank's care instructions and to meet them, which I really appreciated. During my time away, Lucas followed my care instructions to the letter, visiting in the morning and afternoon. He sent detailed visit reports along with pictures of the kitties, which gave me great peace of mind. It's clear that he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. I highly recommend Lucas to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. He did an excellent job, and I'll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future.”

Jeannie goes above and beyond. I can’t say that enough. She took such good care of our kitty!! She’s played games with her and gave her so much love and attention. She also did extra things while we were away, even asked if she could take the trash out for us on trash day! She’l thinks of everything and is so thoughtful! It didn’t take long for our cat to warm up to her and we feel so much better about leaving knowing our cat is under the care of Jeannie. Thank you Jeannie!!!
Harley was amazing and I definitely would use her again to watch my cat on our next trip. She was always timely in replying to messages and arrived when she said she would. I felt that she took great care of my cat and was able to administer his meds. I appreciated the extra time she spent for a meet and greet. It really help me to feel comfortable leaving my pet in her care
This was our second booking with Ivanna & Jacob after being very happy with their service on our first booking. They're a pleasant young couple and took great care of our collection of our three furry babies - our cat and the cats belonging to each of our two daughters - on both occasions. We absolutely recommend them!
Liz was an incredible help with my cat Monty! Liz bonded with Monty very quickly. Liz also gave detailed updates, was prompt, and took care of everything that I asked. Monty was well cared for and I received several cute pictures each visit so that I could see how he was doing, which was reassuring. I highly recommend and will rebook Liz next time I leave town!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Burien on Rover is $29.97 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 Burien. On Rover:

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.
