âMy kitties needed play time, and medicine while I was on holiday. Victoria was SUPER with them. She even tidied up my house, which was a huge help, as I left a mess to catch my flight. I got pictures & updates twice a day, & prompt responses. Highly recommend & will book again.â

âHope is an AMAZING pet sitter. She took incredible care of our dog and cat while we were away. It was evident through the pictures she sent throughout our trip that our animals were comfortable with her. They were often seen with their bellies in the air or on her lap. Additionally, they looked happy and healthy when we came home. We will absolutely book with Hope again. Thank you!â

About: Iâve been around dogs my whole life and have 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog. That experience taught me how important patience, routine, trust, and attention are when looking after someoneâs pet. Iâm reliable, caring, and will always treat your dog like theyâre my own. Whether itâs walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, Iâll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is very flexible, and pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I usually work out in the mornings a few days a week, but Iâm free most of the day and can make plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping your pet company. Iâll always make sure I only accept bookings where I can give your dog the time, care, and attention they deserve. I prefer caring for pets in their own home or taking them on walks, where they can stay comfortable in a familiar routine. I follow all owner instructions carefully and make sure each pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for. During walks, I stay attentive, patient, and responsible at all times.
About: I grew up with dogs (I currently have two large breed dogs) and Iâve also been a volunteer at a dog adoption center for most of my life. I have lots of experience with dogs of various ages, temperaments, and breeds. I have also volunteered at an animal hospital and have assisted with shelter vet visits. I am currently a Cegep student studying to be a veterinary technician so I have lots of availability to walk and play with your dogs ! Since dogs all have different needs and behaviours I will do my best to adapt to whatever will make your dog happy ! I will follow usual schedules in order to keep your dog comfortable and will provide lots of love and care as if they were my own :)!
About: I grew up with animals in the home and I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience! I also have the energy levels to keep up with even the highest energy dogs. Aside from a few hours during the week, I work from home. I can adjust my schedule for the most part to ensure every pets needs are met. I live in an apartment with plenty of nearby parks to take them to play. My building is very safe when it comes to other animals being well behaved. I also don't take on multiple pets so your pet will receive all the attention it needs. When I'm pet sitting in your home I like to follow a similar routine to what your pet is used to. In terms of eating, playtime, going to the bathroom etc. That way while you're away they feel more comfortable and safe.

About: Iâve been caring for dogs for over three years now. My longest stay has been with two dogs for 21 days. Thereâs nothing in this world that I love more than spending time with pups, so Iâd love nothing more than to care for your dogs, however long you need me! I donât have a job in the summer so I have lots of time, I usually workout in the morning at 7:30 and then usually have something early afternoon, but Iâm never away for longer than 2 hours. Iâm big on dog love, the more they learn that we can trust each other, the smoother we will get along. However much care your dog needs, Iâm willing to provide!
âWe were so grateful to have Tyler take care of Waffle while we were away. Despite him needing medication twice a day and being a challenge in many ways due to his anxiety, she made him very comfortable and put us all at ease. We will definitely continue working with Tyler!â


âThis past Christmas break was my first experience with Rover and Charmaine. It was easy, simple and I never had a worry knowing Westley was being well cared for if I could give 10 stars I would. Charmaine is lovely and was a pleasure to communicate with and have in my home to look after Westley. I will definitely book Charmaine anytime I can when we are away.â

âUne gardienne incroyable ! Je recommande fortement Isabelle. Nous avons ĂŠtĂŠ pris au dĂŠpourvu par un de nos chats qui est tombĂŠ malade juste avant nos vacances, et nous sommes donc partis Ă la recherche dâune gardienne pour la fin de semaine. Isabelle a rĂŠpondu très rapidement dès notre premier contact, et nos chats se sont tout de suite entichĂŠs dâelle. La mission nâĂŠtait pourtant pas simple : gĂŠrer quatre chats, dont un qui doit recevoir des mĂŠdicaments deux fois par jour pour son Ĺil. Elle sâen est sortie avec brio ! Nous avons retrouvĂŠ nos chats calmes et reposĂŠs. Un vrai bonheur, merci !â

About: I have two dogs, I have taken care of them for 5 years, I have taken my family's pets for walks and to parks. I also had a cat and I know how to take care of them I work full time in the week until 4 pm, after that I'm free. I'm also free the weekends. I can't have pets at my place but I would be able to be at their home. I could take them for walkings, also I could feed them and staying with them if they will be alone, giving them treats and playing with them.
About: Ive grown up with pets my entire life and have experienced caring for dogs, cats, fish and even bunnies! Being around animals has always been a big part of my life. Iâm young, energetic, responsible, and independent. Iâm able to adapt my routine to you and your pets personalities and routine to help everyone feel comfortable and happy while youâre away! Iâll always keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos so you can have peace of mind! I currently work two jobs both part time, my schedule is pretty scattered but I can easily give shifts away and ask for time off. Iâm always able to be there in the morning and at night time for your pets! Normally Iâll also be there in the either the morning, afternoon or evening depending on my shift. I try to keep the routine as normal and stress free as possible. Iâll try to follow all the feeding, walking playtime and care instructions to make sure your pet(s) are happy and cared for. I always keep my surroundings clean and tidy and am very responsible being left alone and following instructions.
About: As a 27-year-old full-time employee downtown, life can get a bit boring! One of my favourite things to do is bonding with animals. Every animal's specific personality leaves its mark on my heart. My services include dog walking, dog/cat/fish pet sitting, and overnight care. If your pet is shy, a cuddler, or thinks humans are beneath them, I am there to fit into their life and make sure you get updates to ensure your mind is at ease. I'm very comfortable with reactive dogs, making sure they don't chomp on anything they are not supposed to while on their walks, keeping them safe, and also sometimes sprinting with them when the weather permits! :) I'm happy to provide references, and very excited to meet your fur babies! I have a very relaxed job and so work from home most of the time, with a flexible work schedule that I mostly set myself (the rest of it is set by deadlines!) I enjoy being given a purpose to change my routine, so regardless of early riser/late sleeper, your pet and I can hang out when it is comfortable for them. My biggest rule is that I never want to stress your pets out more than they are already stressed out - they miss you already, why would we relocate them! I ask that you provide me with their usual routine and keep to it to ensure that your pet is comfortable. With cats and dogs, I make sure to keep a comfortable distance and let them smell and see me exist around them for a while before I attempt any contact. All we need is safety with animals, and it is my utmost priority :)
About: I have a soothing and calming energy that dogs feel right away. I enjoy seeing dogs get their exercise and brings me joy to see them being happy. I am currently available during business hours, however I can be flexible as long I have 1-2 days notice to accommodate your request. Weekends can vary. I am currently provding dog walking and dog sitting at your home. Feel free to reach out to me for a meet and greet and for any questions.
About: Bonjour and welcome to our home. We love love Love dogs. Winston has many friends. Big and small but mostly small. He doesn't like to reach so high to give kisses. We go for walks at least 3 times a day. That's not including pee pee trips. My house has a long hall and he and his friends love to play chase. Winston sleeps with me and so do his friends..If they don't like my bed I have some nice big cushions for them to cuddle up on. We like to play in our big fenced in backyard or go for walks in the park down the street. Itâs been awhile since getting reviews on here as I wasnât doing g Rover for a few years. I can give references from people I've watched dogs for outside of Rover. Please have your dog licenses. Iâm a stay at home woman who loves dogs and taking care of them. They get all my love and kisses. Walks and play. Thankyou Love and attention with lots of walks and play. I have a scheduled for play, feeding and sleeping times. The dogs love having a routine

âAmelie did an excellent job with taking care of our kitty and house. She communicates clearly and sent photos and updates regularly without prompting. Overall, great experience and I recommend her highly to others. She has a special way with cats too, so I know our cat was very pleased to have her there.â

âAmira was absolutely fantastic. Our moody chihuahua took to her right away and she did great giving our senior boxer all the meds he needed with a last minute injury. She kept him happy even when his activity was low. Pups loved her and canât recommend her enough. Lovers of pictures and updates throughout our trip.â

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Kirkland on Rover is $58.27 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Kirkland 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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.
Tip: 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!
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins 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 Kirkland walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
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 Kirkland 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sittersâs profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 Roverâs 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Roverâs reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
