“Kristen was so thoughtful and conscientious throughout the week of daily drop-in visits I booked for my cat. I was really impressed with the level of attention to detail and prompt communication, but especially/most importantly the ability to get my often cranky kitty to warm up to her (with photo proof!). I’ll definitely be looking to use Kristen again in the future. 10+/10.”

About: Hi! I'm Rachael! I've been casually pet sitting for friends, family, & acquaintances for several years, and happily care for pets like they are my own. I am a psychotherapist with a background in behavior analysis and education in animal behavior (my concentration in college!). I deeply care about the ethical and compassionate care of animals, and take very seriously the task of caring for your pets! I really enjoy being with animals, and feel obligated to ensure they are getting the maximum enrichment they can from our time together. I'm very attuned to pets and the sometimes subtle behaviors they use to communicate with us. I'm currently working remotely and often have large gaps in my schedule where I can drop in to feed your cats or take your dogs on a good, long walk! I'm usually only available for drop ins on weekends, but am happy to do overnights during the week. I focus on exercise, engagement, and safety of your pets, beyond the basics of survival. I know animals can take a long time to warm up, so I do my best to give them space while also offering moments to connect with me safely. I also know that choosing a pet sitter is vulnerable and risky, so I ensure thorough follow-through, engagement and kindness to help you feel confident in your time away from your pets!
“Anne was awesome - super communicative and helpful and went beyond what was requested of her. Anne stopped by the house a bit earlier than scheduled to make sure our pup was doing ok after we saw her (the pup, not Anne lol) eating something on the ring camera and got worried about what it could be. She went and checked the area to be sure our pup hadn't gotten into anything she shouldn't have. 12/10!”

About: 5+ years of caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to every pet’s routine. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of love, exercise, and photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐶 I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays, with morning, lunchtime, evening, and weekend availability. I keep my calendar up to date and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. Since I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and preferences to help them feel comfortable. I provide regular photo updates, treat every home with respect, and prioritize your pet’s safety and happiness every step of the way.

“Aubrey helped with drop-ins & walks while I acclimated to my new job, and she did really great with my dogs. They were both at ease whenever she would bring them back home. Would def recommend her to other pet parents!”


About: Hello! My name is Chelsea. As a former dog owner for over a 13 years to two well-behaved and well-trained shih tzus, I have the skills and the experience necessary to provide exceptional pet care experience. Since moving to Seattle, I am actively looking for opportunities to provide a loving, diligent and caring experience to other pet owners in need of help. What I provide is attentive detail to your dog's needs and reassurance that those needs will be met in a timely manner. I have accumulated experience walking dogs in Baltimore City (previous home!) and I will take that learning experience to provide the best care that I am able to give. More importantly, I provide amazing belly rubs! During the week, I am available during the evenings for walks. On the weekends, I have open availability for dog walks and boarding. I hope to meet your furry friend soon! I’m currently working full-time, primarily working from home and going into the office 1-2 days a week. Therefore, I can provide frequent potty breaks, play time, and whatever else is needed for your pup. I live in an apartment that is thoroughly cleaned before the arrival of your dog to make sure they don’t have access to any food or objects that could become potentially hazardous.
“Chris did an amazing job with our two cats. The updates and photos were sent consistently and in detail which we appreciated. Was great at checking in and being patient with our youngest cat who takes a couple of days to show himself. Will definitely seek out Chris again if available.”


About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all variety, including puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals with medical or special care needs such as bladder issues and routine medications. I’m very attentive to detail and comfortable maintaining specific care instructions so pets can stay on their normal routine and feel secure and engaged. I also have extensive experience house sitting and entering homes independently through TrustedHousesitters. I’m respectful, reliable, and highly responsible, and I understand the importance of trust, communication, and security. I prioritize making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can also provide consistent updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away. Aside from pet care, I am an elementary art teacher and glass artist relocating from Philly and am excited to bike and explore Seattle! Pet care is a consistent and flexible part of my weekly routine. I build my schedule around drop-in visits, walks, and overnight house sitting. I am an artist and teacher on summer break, so I currently have a flexible schedule and prioritize being reliable and on time for all visits. I’m able to adjust my availability to meet the needs of each pet and household. I’m comfortable with early morning, midday, and evening care, and can stagger my day to make sure pets are fed, walked, and checked on within their normal routines. I also allow time in my schedule to give each visit my full attention, rather than rushing between bookings. I care for pets with love like they are my own and treat my clients homes with the upmost respect and transparency. I have experience caring for pets and homes while folks are traveling and value their trust and household rules.
“Abigail was a wonderful sitter for my cat. My cat tends to get litter and her food all over the place -but I came back to a clean apartment and happy cat. Abigail was great at accepting my cat for her faulty personality, communicating and being flexible as well!”

“Rachel & Jens were fantastic. We reach out very last minute and they were super accommodating. We cannot recommend them enough. Very response and love getting the pup updates. Rest assure your furry friend will be taking care of when under their watch.”

About: Hi! I'm Gena. I've always had a special place in my heart for animals, and caring for them has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Growing up with a family dog in Hong Kong and later caring for my two cats for several years taught me that every animal has their own unique personality, quirks, and way of showing love. I genuinely enjoy taking the time to earn a pet's trust, understand their needs, and make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I also graduated from UC Davis with a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science, where I studied animal behavior, welfare, and health. My education helps me better understand how animals communicate, recognize signs of stress or discomfort, and provide thoughtful, attentive care. Friends often describe me as empathetic, gentle, and dependable. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or an older companion who needs extra patience, I'll care for them with the same kindness and attention I'd want for my own. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating them like family and keeping you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you're away. I work fully remote with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I can easily accommodate their routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection! I'm clean, organized and responsible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special routines. I take the time to earn each pet's trust, respect their boundaries, and keep their environment clean, calm, and secure. I'll also provide regular photo and text updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Emily provided detailed updates and lots of photos for each visit. She was able to administer my cat’s inhaler. I had no worries about my pets while I was gone - they were in good hands and were very comfortable with Emily.”

“I truly appreciate Michelle! She is fantastic, and her willingness to take care of my cat makes me feel grateful for her support. I highly recommend working with her as a long-term caretaker. She is reliable and trustworthy. Thank you, Michelle!”


“Gina is amazing! She has been dogsitting for us for a while now and we absolutely love her. She is thoughtful, proactive, and gives us great feedback that allows us to travel in peace, knowing our dogs are in her care. Our dogs are always so excited to see her! We love the photo updates she sends while we're away.”


“Marie-Rose was the best Rover cat sitter I’ve ever had! She is very kind and took extremely good care of my cat Dot. She is detail oriented, making sure to ask specific questions about logistics, pet care/cleaning, and how to make your pet the happiest they can be. I received many amazing videos and photos of Dot, which showed her playing, getting treats, and overall attention. Marie-Rose even left Dot a new wand toy and left a hand-written note with a drawing of Dot, which really warmed my heart. Highly recommend you book Marie-Rose in the future!!”

“I highly recommend Liza if you need a reliable and caring cat sitter! Leaving my cats at home is never fun but I know they are well taken care of with Liza. I’ve booked her twice and both times she has been communicative, sending daily updates with photos and videos. On top of the normal cat sitter responsibilities like feedings and litter box cleaning, she takes the time to play with the cats and they always look happy to be with her! One of my cats is on meds and Liza had no problem feeding those to him. I’ll definitely rebook next time I’m traveling!”

“Rachael took such wonderful care of my dog while I was gone for the Holidays. Always super punctual with check-ins, walks, and she is really good at sending updates with each visit. She even washed Theo's raincoat for him. 1000% recommend her for taking care of your pet <3”

Mengyuan is fantastic! She is incredibly punctual and goes above and beyond to spend quality time keeping my cat company rather than just doing a quick check-in. She’s very proactive about spotting any issues right away and letting me know. Highly recommend if you want someone attentive who hangs out with your pet!

Claire was very sweet and accommodating. She made sure my cat was well fed and exercised, ensuring to stay the entire time we booked for! She even helped us out with signage for our maintenance team to access our apartment for service and took out the trash. Would book again :)

Kenneth did a wonderful job taking care of my two kitties over the 4th of July weekend! Communication was great, he dropped by on time, and managed to wrangle my trouble-making older cat and win over my skittish younger cat. I loved receiving photos from his visits and appreciated him taking the time to play and sit with them each day.

Laurie took wonderful care of my cat, George, while I was away. She followed all of my care instructions carefully, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about making sure George was comfortable and well looked after. I really appreciated her reliability, attention to detail, and the care she showed George throughout her visits. I would absolutely book with Laurie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring pet sitter!

Michelle was amazing as always. When our travel situation got a bit troublesome, Michelle was flexible and helped make sure our boy was well taken care of. We can't recommend her enough. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she takes care of and we always know our boy is in the best hands.

So easy to work with! Zephyr followed instructions to an t and sent detailed updates with plenty of pictures. When my return flight got canceled I was able to add an extra drop within minutes which was so appreciated as an anxious cat parent. I’ll absolutely be rebooking for my next travels.
