Very good at communicating before, during, and after her time with Theo :) I will definitely be having Rachael help out again!”
“Kay was such a fabulous pet sitter! When our cat got sassy and refused to take her medicine on her first visit, Kay went above and beyond and worked with our vet to make sure our cranky girl got her meds so we didn’t have to cancel our trip. Not at all the expectation, but we deeply appreciated how much care she showed our cat! We’d highly recommend Kay to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Mei watched my cat Ghost while I was away for a weekend and did an amazing job! She’s punctual, friendly and great with cats which made this the perfect fit. Ghost warmed up to her quickly and I’ll absolutely hire Mei again :)”
About: I grew up with a toy poodle named Prince who was a life companion to me. As a young adult I adopted an australian shepherd and raised him to be sweet and caring with both humans and animals. I've lived with and raised many cats and love spending time with them. I am vigilant and caring, especially with family/friends/my partner and her child. I am very confident in my ability to care for others. I own and operate an interior photography business, scheduling shifts with my clients at my own pace. My daily/weekly schedule is quite flexible, I am available to care for and walk your animal companions most days of the week. I love going on walks and will get as much enjoyment out of the walks as your furry buddies will. I live in an apartment complex with an enclosed courtyard, it is safe and cozy. In my client's home I will respect the space and be sure to leave it better than I found it. I prefer to keep my home clean and tidy. I am confident in my ability to create a safe environment for pets to feel at home and cared for in their homes. I am really good at reading an animal's behaviors/needs and will pay close attention to their needs (food, bathroom break, walks, etc.).
“Gigi did a wonderful job dropping in to look after my senior orange tabby on short notice. She administered his medications right on time, and took fantastic pictures that made me confident he was in good hands while I was away. I would happily count on her again!”
“Jiaxin was very sweet and she left daily detailed updates about her drop-in visits with our cat Aragorn and lots of pictures. I really appreciate her spending so much time playing with Aragorn so that he got his daily stimulation. I could tell Aragorn really loved her company while we were away on our trip. She also did me a huge favor picking up a package for me from our mailroom. Very friendly, communicative, and reliable - would definitely rebook with her again in the future!”
About: I grew up with dogs. During college I also trained service dogs (pups and dogs about to be placed with their person), and received an animal handling certification from the American psychological association. Since moving to Seattle (8yrs) I have had two cats who I love very much (they are currently on the east coast with my gf for emotional support) I work part time right now at nights on weekends but my shifts are are usually 5 hours or less. I work literally 3 blocks down from my apartment and can also come back during my break if need be. With the utmost care. I am someone who cannot stand an animal being in need or put in harms way. If I see a dog across the bar with its leg wrapped in the leash and the owner doesn’t seem to realize I’m going over to politely make sure they notice
About: Being around and caring for dogs has been a huge and special part of my life. I have been the go to caretaker of friends dogs of many different breeds and cared for my own rescue chihuahua for 11 years until he passed away at 18. I have also fostered several types of dogs from puppies to senior and special needs pups. I trained my dog, Peanut and cared for him including giving him oral liquid medication three times a day. I look forward to giving all dogs the love and care that I was able to give my dog for so long. I currently work very part time as a bartender but spend most of my time at home working as an artist from my home studio. I live on a quiet street across from a park and am experienced walking dogs of all sizes on leashes. I also have access to a fenced in courtyard that is perfect for all pups to get peaceful outdoor time. If a dog is staying with me they will not be left alone (unless crating is an option) and will be free from safety hazards. I request meet and greets for all new clients to make sure we go over any additional shreds with your loved one and to build a rapport.

Kevin H.
“I rescued a pitbull, Brooklyn, during College who was quite a handful and I would have Kevin watch her when I left town and whenever I came back she had always learned a new piece of obedience (like waiting to ea until she’s told) or a trick (like giving a high five). Brooklyn loved when Kevin watched her and I always knew she was in good hands.”
Alexandra C.
“Alexandra has watched my chiweenie, Donna, many times over the last three years and I can’t speak more highly of her and her care! She has a deep love for pups and it shows! She meets the pup where they’re at and makes sure all their needs are met, and then some, making sure to include lots of snuggles and pets. She gives great photo updates on your lil guy if requested, and closely adheres to any special requests. I highly recommend Alex, I’ve had nothing but the best experiences with her and her care for Donna!”
Zephyr

Capitol Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Annie was amazing with my kitties! They’re usually not the friendliest bunch, but they seemed to get along with her super well, very quickly. I’d highly recommend her as a sitter and will definitely work with her again in the future. Thanks again for taking such great care of my cats!
Amberlee is an amazing cat sitter! She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away, and we couldn’t be happier. She’s our go-to sitter because we know our cats are in the best hands with her. Her daily picture updates give us complete peace of mind, and it’s clear from the photos that our cats really like her. We always feel comfortable leaving them with Amberlee, and we’re so grateful for her care and attention. Highly recommend!
This was my first time leaving my cat (Gizmo) home for any length of time and Kaytlin made it all so much less stressful. Sent plenty of pictures, answered questions, and was just generally super reassuring. Gizmo clearly got lots of quality play time, and he even let Kaytlin pick him up for cuddles, which is never guaranteed with him. Totally recommend!
Cassandra is an exception sitter that connected with my cats as if they were her own. She knows how to read them and gives them what they ask, cares for them, and send lots of photos. Would highly recommend Cassandra for all your cats needs, my cats trust her, I trust her, and she does an excellent job.
Sami was a fantastic and caring petsitter for my high-strung cat. She knew exactly how to let him be around her and made sure he was very comfortable. Sami was always punctual, thorough in her pet care, and prompt in her communications. I ill definitely be re-booking her and recommending her to my friends!
She is extremely attentive to my cats and quite responsive in texts. She's very friendly overall. She gave me very detailed information about my cats' behavior on a daily basis, and my cats seem to like her a lot. I felt very safe leaving my cats in her care.
Rachel was FANTASTIC with my 2 cats - by far the best experience I’ve had so far on Rover. I had a last minute issue with the sitter I had originally booked, and reached out to Rachel 3 days prior to my trip and she was willing and able to make time for a formal M&G to get aquainted with my cats and their needs while I was gone. During these drop-ins, she was great about providing updates and plenty of pictures so that I really felt confident that my cats were happy, healthy, and being well taken care of while I was away. She followed instructions perfectly and it was very clear that my cats were well taken care of while I was gone.
Thank you so much for taking good care of my kitty. After our last cat sitter disaster, Lyric went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and confident, and took good care of my kitty as promised. As a result I was able to relax on my trip. She’s very reliable, followed instructions and communicated well throughout the trip. Thank you so much again!
Elaine was wonderful! At our meet and greet, she really listened and seemed to care about all the information shared. I could tell she is a true animal lover. She provided detailed updates and took awesome photos for the drop-ins. I feel very comfortable leaving my boys in her care and will be using her services again!
