“Absolutely wonderful sitter. Literally zero complaints, she was communicative, helpful, took notes on the goods and the bads, went above and beyond to provide service for my pets. Absolutely will be using her again, first choice.”
About: I have extensive experience with equines, dogs, cats, fish, and most reptiles. Family, friends, and strangers have trusted me to care for their animals, both with drop in visits and house/pet sitting. I currently work part time Monday-Thursday but my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to fit the needs of your household. I am punctual and have reliable transportation. I am great at communication and can often accept requests with little notice! I am very confident with my animal care and handling. I grew up around all sorts of animals and have always helped others with their pets. I will always put pet safety first and make sure your pets are happy and healthy!
About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by animals of all kinds, fostering a deep and intuitive connection with them. This bond has always felt effortless, as forming relationships with animals is one of my greatest passions. I have successfully trained numerous dogs to coexist harmoniously with family members, other pets, and small children. My fearlessness around animals has allowed me to interact with them without hesitation, and I have never been bitten. My approach is rooted in compassion, patience, and understanding, earning me the reputation of an “animal whisperer.” I currently have a lot of free time, and this would be my main priority! I am willing to put in as many hours as people need! I have an outdoor/indoor 18 year old cat who’s quality of life is amazing. She eats a very healthy diet, gets a lot of activity and socializing in, and cuddles all night long from my partner and I.
“Grace has watched our crew twice now! We have 2 large dogs, 1 large foster dog, and 3 cats, so we know it can be a handful but she has cared for them for wonderfully! I am a crazy furmom and I have a long list of directions that she follow to a T. She handles all of their needs - behaviorally/otherwise without issue. On top of that she takes care of the house and leaves it as clean/cleaner then when we left it. We appreciate having someone who is reliable and that we can trust! And plan to continue to use her services in the future!”
“Kasey was incredible with our pups, Eddie and Jennie, while we were gone for five days. We told her all their little quirks and favorite things, and she was so thoughtful and accommodating with everything. She took them on hikes every day, planned play dates, sent us tons of pictures, and made sure they got all the cuddles they could ever want. We ended up having travel delays, and Kasey didn’t hesitate for a second she happily kept them an extra night and made the whole situation so much less stressful for us. We’d recommend Kasey over and over again. We’ll definitely be booking with her in the future! Thanks for being great Kasey 🤗”
“Karen is the ideal pet sitter. She watched our young lab Roger and independent cat Beatrice for 8 nights, including some medications, and provided photos and updates everyday. I never once worried about their care or well being, and upon return I think Rogers behavior improved so she may have helped train his basic manners. Wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again”
“LeeAnn was a great pet and house sitter for our weekend away! We booked LeeAnn last minute and are so pleased that we did. She took the time to come over before we left to go over our picky cats food routine and updated us with how he was doing while we were away. LeeAnn is communicative and reliable. We will definitely have her back to watch our cat, Dr. Pepper, again!”
“Emma was the best! Left for a 4 day weekend trip and left the keys to the house to her. When I came back, it was like she was never there. House was in great shape, Thor was a happy pup, and she gave me continuous updates. Couldn’t be happier! Thanks, Emma.”
“Our pups adored Brougan. They were very well taken care of. One had a broken toe nail and that required watching him and putting on bandages so he wouldn't lick it. Brougan also watered all of plants for us and left the house clean. We will definetly be using Brougan again. Thank you.”
“Sarah was a great sitter for my high energy cattle dog. My dog also has separation anxiety and can’t be left alone for longer than 3 hrs at a time, it was great she was able to stay with him at my house the entire sit so he wouldn’t get lonely. She had Great communication and sent me pictures. I would book her house sitting service again!”
“Tananda was great with Frito. Very communicative and sent me plenty of pictures. Left the house spotless and was real easy to work with! I would definitely recommend her.”
“Kendall is an amazing women in so many ways. She stayed with my two boy dogs and became their second mom. The boys were so calm when I got home. House looked great and most of all she is smart, common sensed, trusted and earned my total respect. She is now a part of my family. Thank you Kendall. Pam”
“It always makes you proud when someone thinks your dog is as sweet and adorable as you do. Ami gave updates and photos throughout the weekend. I came back to a very happy dog and would definitely use Ami again!”
About: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.
“All good with Ariana! The puppies Chidi and Ellie had a great time playing with Ariana's puppies, everything was in good order when I returned, no complaints from the puppies! Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I’ve grown up with a variety of animals, and currently have 2 dogs of my own. They both know basic commands, and are very loving. I am available most days (when not working my job) to walk, play, and offer love to your baby. For more information on my schedule, please contact me. I have 2 dogs currently and can bring them for a play date if requested. My dogs receive lots of love and attention, and I will bring the same to your dogs as well.
About: I grew up helping my parents breed German Shepherds and Rottweilers, and spent my childhood surrounded by Huskies, Min Pins, Boxers, and Golden Retrievers. Over the years, I’ve personally raised several puppies—including a Jack Russell Terrier, two Corgis, and a Shetland Sheepdog—which taught me patience, consistency, and how to support dogs through every stage of development. I’ve completed training courses with all of my pets, working on recall and foundational commands like sit, stay, roll over, and fetch. I also have lifelong experience caring for cats. I’ve raised kittens, supported senior cats through their later years, and understand how important it is to move at their pace and respect their boundaries. Along with senior‑pet care, medication administration, grooming, and daily routines, my background gives me a calm, confident approach to animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. A lifetime of hands‑on experience truly sets me apart and helps me provide reliable, compassionate care for every pet I meet. Pet care fits smoothly into my weekly routine because I’m currently a full‑time online student with a very flexible schedule. Since I’m not working outside of school, I’m able to offer care any day of the week with only a few time restrictions that shift depending on class requirements. This flexibility allows me to provide daily walks, drop‑in visits, house sitting, or consistent care for pets who need support while their owners are at work. I enjoy building pet care into my day, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to match each animal’s needs and comfort level. Before caring for any new pet, I always start with a meet‑and‑greet to understand their routine, personality, and any unique needs. I talk with owners about feeding schedules, reactivity, medication requirements, and comfort levels so I can follow their expectations exactly. In a client’s home, I maintain their established routines, keep pets calm and comfortable, and make sure their environment stays clean and safe. My goal is to provide care that feels familiar to each animal while giving owners confidence that their pets are being looked after with attention and respect.
About: I’ve been a volunteer at two different animal shelters, including Olympia‘s Joint Animal Services. I’ve worked with everything from tiny 4 week old kittens to elderly dogs, and I’m comfortable delivering some medications. As a former teacher and current volunteer educator I’ve passed many background checks. I’ve taken care of my own pets and those of family and friends my whole life, and I love getting to know new fur friends. I am currently working part time as a consultant so my pet care schedule is very flexible. I am available most weekdays, evenings, and weekends. Meeting someone new can be stressful for an animal, so I meet your pets with patience and attention to their needs. I strive to be a calm and safe presence although I am also happy to have fun and match their energy if they are looking to be playful.

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 Carlyon Beach 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 Carlyon Beach 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 Carlyon Beach 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
