“Maya is the BEST! She has watched our girls twice now and she treated them just like we do....spoiled! She sent such great updates and pictures to us and really made us worry about them less than we normally do. I almost hate to give this review LOL because I hope she is available the next time we need her! THANK you Maya”
“Michelle was an amazing pet sitter. She was my first live-in overnight sitter and she helped me feel so at ease about the whole process. She communicated well prior to the pet sitting dates, and she sent me daily updates on how things were going along with pictures of my very happy dogs while in her care. I have three dogs with different needs and abilities and they all had a great time with her. I would absolutely use her again for future pet sitting needs!”
“Sebastian did a great job taking care of our dog Tobin who is both leash reactive and epileptic. Sebastian gave our dog her meds on time and made sure she was happy and well-cared for. We appreciated the updates and pictures we got throughout the sit and look forward to using Sebastian as a dog and house sitter again in the future.”
“Tyler was great with our feisty dog Juno. She went on some fun adventures and we came home to a happy dog and tidy house. Thanks so much and we’ll definitely book again in the future!”
“Marcie charmed my challenging dog in minutes. I received multiple updates and now they are best friends. Highly recommend! I will have her housesit again.”
“Emma did great with our timid puppy and rambunctious cat. She sent plenty of updates, and made sure our puppy who had never spent a weekend without us got a lot of love!”
“We loved having Annie stay with our animals while we were away! She was quick to respond and kept us updated throughout our time away. The animals loved her and would highly recommend! Thanks Annie!!”
“Sherri was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly professional, communicative, and gave us peace of mind when we were out of town. She kept us up to date multiple times throughout every day, and took care of the pets and the house very well. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
About: Hi, I'm Leah, and as you might have guessed, I am a huge pet lover! I've been incredibly lucky to be surrounded by sweet furry friends my entire life - growing up with everything from dogs and cats to iguanas and birds - and I have adored every single one of them. As an adult, I raised an adorable corgi and currently share my home with two sweet black cats. I hold a very special place in my heart for senior pets and for those who need a little extra love & care. My beloved corgi, Bamboo, who has since crossed the rainbow bridge, had Degenerative Myelopathy (DM). Caring for him taught me so much about keeping pups cozy, happy, and comfortable. I truly miss him and miss having a dog in my life, so walking and looking after yours would bring me so much joy! I'm also a very proud cat mom to two precious black kitties who have taught me so much. My senior cat, Kanga, has Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC), which has made me well-versed in creating peaceful, stress-free environments for our feline friends. My other kitty, Kiwi, has asthma, so I'm completely comfortable administering medications, including inhalers and oral treatments. Since I'm self-employed as an artist, my schedule is wonderfully flexible and I'd love to chat about how I can help. If you happen to be looking for a house-sitter, I would truly love to help you out. I'm available for quick stays of 2 to 4 days at a time. I look forward to hearing from you, and tell your furry friend I said hi, too 🖤 Since I work from home as an artist, my schedule is wonderfully flexible! I can easily adjust my time to fit whatever works best for you and your pet. If I stay at your home, I'll be there to keep your furry friend company throughout most of the day since my work travels with me. Please rest assured that I will deeply respect your space, follow all of your household rules, and keep everything safe and secure (like food that is toxic to pets). I love building a bond of trust with pets by letting them set the pace for interactions.
“Danayt took wonderful care of my dog and house, and I would definitely hire her again! She sent lots of updates about how my dog was doing and was very professional and friendly. She even cleaned up the house before I returned. I highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up caring for my family’s cats and dogs, and I currently have two cats of my own. I also spent six months at a dog boarding and training facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. During that time, I gained hands-on experience with everything from dogs who were learning how to walk on a leash for the first time to dogs who struggled with fear, reactivity, and aggression towards people or other dogs. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, trust, and meeting each dog where they are. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for friends and regularly provide in-home stay, caring for multiple pets at a time. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. I’ll treat them like my own and do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I work a flexible full-time hybrid job, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability throughout the week. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and overnight stays, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: Hello! After 2 years I’m back :) I recently moved cross DC to Shoreline and I’m looking to enjoy getting to know the city with your pet! I own a husky who I self trained and I take her on the bus and metro with me. I’m very patient and can read pets really well. I work with all size sand conditions! I'm very flexible. I work from home so we can arrange anything according to your availability. I'm free during the week and on weekends day and night. I believe every pet has its own personality and reading its sign is a key factor when taking care of a pet. I always ask their owner to be specific about their daily routines or if they have any allergies so that way the pet feels in their comfort zone.
“As fellow Rover sitters, my partner and I are very selective about who cares for our little zoo while we are away. David has been an easy choice for us for the last few months! He was our house sitter earlier this year and took great care of our home while we were out of state. Most importantly, he has cared for all of our animal babies including our senior dog (who needed medication), a newborn litter of six kittens, three adult cats, and my small aquarium of tropical fish and frogs. I trust David fully and would recommend him to anyone looking for care!”
About: Hello pet parents! I'm an animal lover and experienced with taking care of new puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. We live in Edmonds with a large fully fenced backyard that's great for sniffing and running around, and sunbathing on the patio when the weather's nice. I'm excited to host your dog at my home and ensure they feel comfortable, safe and loved while away. We ensure that pet parents receive frequent pupdates during the stay, so you feel confident knowing your fur baby is well cared for. Tell us what your dog's typical day is like and we'll do our best to replicate it in our home. I work from home full time so your dog will always have company and lots of attention. We can also provide lots of outdoor time throughout the day. Any questions please don't hesitate to message me! Our schedule is generally flexible and we tend to be home most of the time. Jasper is also great at keeping guests conpany if the humans ever need to step out. We treat all dogs we host like our own fur-babies. Guests also tend to get preferential treatment to make them feel as welcomed as possible.
“Allison has been amazing with my elderly dog. We have used her services for dog walking as well as dog sitting at my home. She is easy to communicate with, consistent, and reliable. Allison did a great job taking care of my dog that is older and set in her ways. I felt confident having Allison stay at my home while I was away and loved receiving photo and message updates. 10/10 I will definitely book again and recommend Allison to friends.”
“There are honestly no words to express how grateful I am for Rini. I had been referred to a sitter that was completely unreliable. Including leaving my fur babies unattended for almost 14 hours, not arriving to let them out in the morning or to feed them until almost Noon. I could see them on my camera and felt completely helpless. I immediately hopped on Rover to see if I could find anyone who could help my fur babies. Rini came to my rescue. Even though she already had some sitting jobs she was able to squeeze my crew into her schedule. I was so stressed and was unable to enjoy my trip because I was so worried about them. Rini was AMAZING! I could tell instantly that the animals would be in good hands after her first visit, which happened within an hour of contacting her. The animals were much calmer after her first visit. She made sure they received a lot of love and care. Thanks to Rini I was able to relax knowing my babies were in great hands!! I’ll definitely be using her again.”
“Marley pet sit for 10 days while we were on an international trip. Everyone love Marley from the minute she came to our house. She is easy to communicate with and flexible. Our house was spotless when we came home. Thank you for your help!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edmonds
Deya was great with our babies. We had an unexpected need for medications which she managed without missing a beat. They were happy to see me upon my return but seemed as though they were looking for her! She was a great communicator and let me know how they were every step of the way.
Allison was great both watching our dog and our home while were out of town. She was very communicative, and kept us in the loop with regular updates and lots of photos the whole time were gone. She genuinely enjoys our dog and he had a great time with here while we were away. Will definitely book her again!
Kate watched our two kitties in our home for 3 days. We came home to happy kitties which is always great! Kate sent daily update and gave a long update on her final day before leaving our home. She also checked in a few times leading up to our trip to make sure we were both confirmed and clear on instructions which was appreciated. She also made sure to take out the trash and tidy up after her stay. The only small hiccup was prior to booking. The pricing shown on the listing was not the actual cost. She prices herself a bit different than all other Rover sitters we’ve work with. That said, the total cost was reasonable and we worked it out before I agreed to book.
Addisyn did an amazing job caring for our dogs and looking after our home while we were gone. She was incredibly attentive and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us total peace of mind. She was super reliable with their routine, making sure they got their allergy meds with dinner each night. Honestly, I don’t think the dogs even missed us! We returned to very happy, well-cared-for pups and will absolutely be booking Addisyn again. Highly recommend!

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 Edmonds 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 Edmonds 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 Edmonds 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.
