“I almost hate to write this, because Karen may get so busy that I won’t be able to book her! I can’t say enough good about her. Probably the best part was that she had my really anxious/antisocial pup relaxed in no time—and it was July 4. Fireworks going off all the time. Karen sent me updates and pics of both dogs on a regular basis. I do believe my house was cleaner than when I left it. Karen even contacted me for pooper scooper info. Wonderful energy. She is “the dog whisperer.””
“From Anika's first stroking of my cat's fur during our meet and greet, I could see that he felt comfortable with her. It was comforting to know that he would let her provide the love and cuddles we wouldn't be home to give him. Thank you, Anika for taking good care of our senior cat!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats since I was 6 years old. I currently work at Camano Canine Resort on Camano Island, where I’ve gained professional experience handling a variety of dogs in a structured, care-focused environment. This has strengthened my skills in reading animal behavior, maintaining safe routines, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them company and comfort, I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I am available after school on weekdays for pet care, mainly during afternoons and evenings, and I focus on providing consistent, dependable care during those times. I stick to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, walks, potty breaks, and spending time with them. I also keep your place clean and follow any instructions you leave.
“Bridgette is Amazing!!! She is so kind and wonderful to all of our goobers, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everyone was happy and healthy when we got home and house was immaculate.. I can’t say enough nice things about Bridgette and will 100% be asking her to care for our lil guys whenever we head out of town.”
“Camille was great for Archer and Athena. We appreciated the consistency of photos and videos and her good communication. Our pets were in good hands and it gave us peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of well.”
About: -I’ve worked at a doggy daycare - have a great passion with working with animals. - Own various animals myself I am looking for a job that I would enjoy, being around animals especially dogs make my day, they’re great companions that show nothing but love and deserve to be treated with the upmost care. I have multiple pets of my own ranging from rabbits to dogs. I am new to this website and looking to find a place to start in the animal aspect of Carrers if you have any questions or specific details you’d like me to go by message me and I’m willing to abide by those instructions. I volunteer at animals shelters and have worked at a doggy daycare. I really look forward to meeting your furry friends!!
“Great communication and easy to work through details of the stay. Ron is a super kind person who will take great care of your pets! Don’t hesitate to book him to hang out with your pups!”
About: My whole life I have always had at least one dog or cat to take care of. In high school, I volunteered at an animal shelter walking dogs where it was my priority to keep them safe while getting all that energy out! I started pet sitting and house sitting for friends and family after high school. I have done obedience and potty training with puppies. I am familiar with administering oral medicines to dogs and cats. My cat has asthma, so I am also comfortable administering an inhaler. I am a student doing online classes, so my schedule is super flexible! Currently Thursday through Sunday are the days I am most available, but with enough time in advance I should be able to make most things work. Just like us, each of our pets are different, so communication is huge to me. The more I know about your pet, the more comfortable we all can be whether it’s going on a walk to pet sitting. My goal when spending time with a pet is keep them feeling comfortable and safe. All animals have their own temperament, so through our communications and my understanding of animal body language I can meet your pet where they’re at whether that is needing space or snuggles.
“Lauren was very thorough with her meet and greet questions to cover all needs. She sent us updates and pictures of our two dogs. We are always happy to find a local person for dog sitting and would hire her again.”
“Samara was the perfect fit for my dog who has separation anxiety. Her calm, confident demeanor kept Buster relaxed and happy for the entire time we we gone. Samara was very flexible and asked great questions. I will not hesitate for a second to book her again!”
“Donna came to our house to watch our sixteen year old timer doggo, she's a terrific communicator, extremely friendly and trustworthy, and she took wonderful care of him. Highly recommend her, we will definitely be calling her again for future sitting. Reliable and caring.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for years and genuinely love being around animals. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, especially when you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, following routines, and giving lots of attention. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and affection I give my own. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care. 🐾 I have a rotating work schedule, but I know my availability in advance and will only accept bookings I can fully commit to. On my available days, I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability before accepting a booking. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications or special routines, and I’ll respect your home while I’m there. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and cared for.
“We like Matthew and were very pleased with the care he provided for our 2 dogs and our home while we were traveling out of the country for 3 weeks. Our dogs love him and he was always very understanding of their unique personalities, behaviors & preferences. He provided updates with photos throughout our time away and was very responsive to our messages as we checked in on our dogs, despite the 8 hour time difference between Washington State and the United Kingdom. We would gladly trust him with our dogs & our home again in the future!”
“She was very friendly and on schedule. I know our fur baby is a handful but she was great with him. Found our baby happy. She is awesome. Very communicative. Several updates.”
“Finding someone we can trust with our girls has always been the biggest reason we don’t travel much. But after working with Morgan, we’ve finally found that person! She was absolutely amazing with our Abby and Penny, treating them with so much love and care. We got daily updates and photos, which totally put us at ease. It felt like we were still connected to them even while we were away! When our flight got delayed, Morgan went above and beyond and stayed late to make sure the girls were fed and walked, which was a huge relief. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and who genuinely loves and will treat your fur babies as if they were her own, Morgan is your girl. We couldn’t be more grateful!”
“Brandy was amazing!! She was able to help us in a pinch, and was so easy to work with and very communicative. Nala is a nervous gal, but Brandy was so quick to make her feel at ease. We will definitely be booking Brandy again! ❤️”
“Carlynn was literally the best dog sitter I have ever had. Not only did she make sure my pet was comfortable and well taken care of, she also made sure to leave my apartment in even BETTER condition that when we left! I would rebook her a million times over! Highly, highly recommended her!”
“I was a little anxious about leaving our mini zoo (2 dogs and 3 cats) with someone while we were out of town for a few days—but turns out I didn’t need to worry at all. Jacob was awesome. He kept us in the loop every day with updates and pics of the crew. When we got back, the animals were totally chill and happy, just like usual. And as a super thoughtful bonus, Jacob even tossed the guest bed sheets in the wash before he left. Such a nice touch. Would highly recommend.”

I am so glad that we found Maryann to watch our Daisy. Daisy was able to stick to her regular routine while we were off on a river adventure. Maryann was a great communicator- which I really appreciate. We will hire Maryann again as they got along great- which equates to Peace of Mind!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Camano 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 Camano 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 Camano 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
