“I can’t recommend Tyler enough! She cared for our two cats like they were her own. My older cat is very shy and he warmed up to Tyler because of her great energy. Tyler gave us daily updates and photos and even did a couple little extras around the house. We had total piece of mind during our two weeks away. The best!!”

About: Hi! I’m Leanne — a caring, responsible, and trusted pet sitter offering a live-in pet sitting service. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and home while you’re away! ── 💕 MY SERVICE IS ESPECIALLY WELL-SUITED FOR PETS WHO: - Experience stress when left alone for extended periods - Need frequent bathroom breaks - Are very social or enjoy company - Have special routines or additional care needs ── ⏰ YOUR PET’S ROUTINE COMES FIRST: I understand how important consistency is for animals. Whether your pet has specific feeding times, exercise routines, bedtime habits, or medication schedules, I make every effort to follow their routine as closely as possible. Your instructions become my priority, so your pets can feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. ── 🏡 CARING FOR YOUR HOME: Because I’m on the property for the majority of the time, your home receives an added level of attention while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. ── ❤️ A LIFETIME OF CARING FOR ANIMALS Animals have always been an important part of my life. My wonderful cat, Archie, taught me how to carefully administer medication and, more importantly, how to become highly attuned to an animal’s needs through body language and non-verbal communication. I had a beloved frog named Fern who lived an incredible 24 years as well. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for how different every animal can be — and how important it is to understand and respect their individual personalities, needs, and routines. ── 📸 COMMUNICATION & PEACE OF MIND: While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can see how your pets are doing. I’m also always available by phone or text if you have any questions or simply want to check in (as many times as you want!) Your pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and that’s exactly what I aim to provide ❤️ I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! ── ⚠️ IMPORTANT BOOKING NOTES: - I’m only able to provide house-sitting services in smoke-free homes. Thank you for understanding! - Large dog breeds must be able to walk well on a leash — I can handle big dogs, but not REACTIVE big dogs. I currently work remotely, so have plenty of time to work my schedule around your pets. I am available 7 days week, day and night. I do not currently offer boarding in my home, however safety is my top priority when caring for your animals at your house. I make sure to follow your rules and keep your animals schedule as close to what they are accustomed to.
“We are extremely happy with the service Jay provided. From the first contact, she was flexible, super fast to respond and very much on the ball. We just felt so relaxed about having her care for our kitties that, dare I say it, we nearly forgot we’d left them behind! She kept us informed with photos every day. They were incredibly relaxed when we got home and I think that’s testimony to how caring and dedicated she is. I’m so glad we’ve found Jay and will happily have her care for our furry family members again! Thanks again Jay - you are a gem!!”

About: About 5 years ago, my family and I added a new member to our family. My life changed ever since that day. I never knew love for animals could grow this big but here we are. I think every dog deserves this type of love and I am here to provide that. I’m currently working part-time and am not in school so my schedule is VERY flexible and free. I am also willing to make all necessary adjustments to please my clients. ☺️ I have a pup at home, so I am very used to that fur baby lifestyle. All equipment needed is required in my service apart from collars or harnesses due to different sizing for different doggies.
About: I absolutely love dogs and so does my partner. We would love to welcome your bundle of joy in our home! We live in a very quiet and homey neighborhood with lots of green spaces and ample nature to go for a walk in. They would be joining our pets, one large dog that is incredibly sweet and accommodating, as well as the gentlest cat ever. I would absolutely love to make this stay special for you and your loved pet! Please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions and / or request, I would be more than happy to reply as soon as humanly possible. Thank you so much for your trust. :) We are able to play with them in the afternoons and on weekends, and of course provide them with the regular scheduled food, treats, grooming if necessary. We are flexible, depending on the synergy with our pets. We usually allow dogs to be 'out and about' in the home and provide frequent trips in the back yard and walk them once a day. We work from home a lot. Our dogs play in the back yard for as long as they want daily. Usually any visitors end up tired and happy soon enough 🙂 We have a fenced yard for safety. Our two dogs are super friendly and our amazing cat is a darling. They get along with anyone!

If any of your pets require special attention for something I can provide help with that as well 🐶
“Iulia is clearly very capable with dogs. I hired her because I want Cocoa to stay calm when greeting visitors. Iulia knew exactly how to stand and how to respond to Cocoa. I will definitely call on her again.”

“Mckenzie and Sami took care of my two cats for three weeks while I was on vacation. They were amazing!! They sent photos after every visit! My cats, who are usually very shy, went right up to them. I came home to two cats in great shape, and I didn’t get the impression they’d missed me at all 🤣 Finally, when we got back, we found a nice note from them and photos of my cats 🥰, and they had cleaned up the areas where the cats spend their time. I highly recommend them, they’re really great!”

Ashley took such amazing care of our 2 cats over 2 weeks! It was our first time on Rover and we are so happy with her service. It really took a weight off during our trip knowing they were so well taken care of. She really paid attention to the little things and you can tell she loves animals so it all comes naturally. Would definitely recommend her service to anyone :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kirkland is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,818 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Kirkland. About 84% of Kirkland sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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!
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 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 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.
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

- 92% can help with daily exercise
