About: I’ve been caring for and training dogs for over 15 years, beginning with our family Yorkie. I genuinely love spending time with animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I intentionally accept a limited number of bookings so I can provide each pet with the time, attention, and personalized care they deserve. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. I work remote during the weekdays but very early so I’m available during the day. Flexible weekends if scheduled ahead and able to room and board! I’ll take great care of your animals as if they were mine, Very professional & have rover friends that can vouch for me! Thank you for trusting me with your fur pals!

About: I've been caring for dogs for nearly 20 years. Growing up with three family dogs taught me how to care for pets through every stage of life. From daily walks and playtime to swimming, feeding, and plenty of affection. I also grew up in a neighborhood full of dogs and regularly walked, checked in on, and cared for neighbors' pets while their families were away. Friends and family have continued to trust me with their pets over the years, and for four years I lived with my roommate's dog, helping with daily care and treating him like he was my own. I'm comfortable following routines, adapting to different personalities and energy levels, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. As a freelance photographer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm typically available Monday through Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks and drop-in visits, and I'm often able to accommodate weekend requests as well. Whether your dog is ready for a long walk or your cat just needs some company and care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. You can also expect thoughtful updates and plenty of photos during each visit. I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy while you're away! I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always respect your space, follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, and care for your home with the same attention and respect I would my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning up after walks, scooping the litter box, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
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.
“Kennedy did everything we could have asked for and more when checking in on our pups! She was responsive to our messages/requests and informative in her reports, even letting us know when she saw aberrant behavior that might indicate a sore. Would absolutely rely on her again!”


“Marie is sooo excellent! She is incredibly thorough and detail oriented. She is such a sweet person and puts a lot of care into caring for your pet. My kitty was in the best of hands and I look forward to using Marie for future trips :)”

“If our three thumbed (polydactyl) cats had access to our smart devices, they’d have already left this review themselves—and probably tipped him extra. We’ve trusted Kevin with our trio of “tigerz” more than once now, and there’s a reason we keep coming back. Each of our cats has their own unique demands (I mean, personality), and somehow Kevin manages to keep all three happy, fed, entertained, and—most impressively—on their absolute best behavior. We’re still trying to figure out his secret. It’s incredibly reassuring knowing they’re in such attentive and capable hands when we have to be away. Kevin takes the time to understand each cat’s quirks and needs, and it shows. We come home to relaxed, happy, and well-cared-for cats! 🌟 Kevin is our go-to sitter without hesitation, and we can’t recommend him highly enough!”

“Anna is an amazing find on Rover! She is so good with our very nervous and anxious rescue pup. Her experience with larger dogs really seemed to help Ares warm up to her faster than I’ve ever seen before! Anna is a true dog whisperer 10/10!!!”

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10! I grew up with multiple dogs and even taught them fun tricks, one of them learned how to skateboard. 🛹🐶 I work fully remote and only accept one dog (or one family's pets) at a time, so your pup will receive plenty of attention in a calm, loving home. I treat every dog like family and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. 🤍 I work fully remote, so I'm home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule to give your pet lots of attention. My evenings and weekends are flexible too, so they'll have plenty of company and care. 🤍 I have a clean, pet-friendly home and don't have any pets of my own, so your pet will have my full attention. I only care for one pet (or one family's pets) at a time to provide a calm, comfortable environment.
About: Several years of watching friend's and family's dogs and cats! Have fostered dogs and I nursed my rescue puppy back to perfect health. I have had her for 4 years now. I work from home, so I can provide attention to your dog all day! We are very active, with multiple walks a day around the city, off leash dog parks (if you are ok with it), and weekend visits to bigger parks! I am flexible with dropoff and can even provide pickup/dropoff within a reasonable distance of Seattle. I will tailor my schedule to accommodate your pup's bathroom schedule. In my home, the dogs are allowed everywhere. I can crate the dog if necessary. We can do a meet and greet so that your dog can get comfortable with me and my pup. I will tailor my care to your pup!
About: I have 14 year old black lab and have raised her for all 14 years. Taking care of a senior dog has its challenges and I’m proud to say I’ve risen to meet them. I’m looking to walk some dogs in my spare time and meet some cool dogs along the way I have 3 days off a week and am looking for something to fill Sundays - Tuesdays. I can be flexible with my schedule if our proximity meshes well I have a doggy gate in my apt and can isolate my dog if needed. She’s 14 and lived with cats before, shes very chill around cats
“Valeriya is an amazing cat sitter and we had a great experience. She was prompt and responsive from the start, and communication was clear and easy the whole time. My cat is older and pretty grumpy with new people, but Valeriya was very patient and won her over. I can always tell from medical condition flareups when my cat is stressed and I came home to a very content furball. Valeriya followed all the complicated feeding instructions perfectly. She sent plenty of photo updates, which really helped me feel at ease while I was away. I will happily book with her again and recommend her to anyone else with a fussy cat.”

“Erin took the extra time to try to befriend my cat, she was able to get him to take his medication and though I'm sure the cat wasn't happy about it, it provided great relief to me that she was able to take care of him.”

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!
“This was our second time hiring Mengyuan as a cat sitter. She took good care of our cats, and sent us pictures every day. She remembered details about each cat, like which one is shy and which one is on a diet. I felt very comfortable knowing a trustworthy and reliable sitter was watching our cats.”

The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Downtown is $25

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!

Hallie, Annie and special visitor Molly enjoyed their time with Madeline while we were away! As always we appreciated Madeline’s thorough reports and felt like we were practically there with all of the photos and videos. Madeline goes above and beyond for the kitties in her care and we are so grateful for it!

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.
