“Reagan was really loving towards my senior cat, and sent lots of photos! I appreciated her great communication and positive interaction with my sweet old girl. 10/10 would book again”
“Susannah was fantastic at communicating the status of our pet during her visits. She brought in our packages and even put the garbarge cans in from the curb, helping keep our house safe. We would definitely book Susannah again.”
“Kimberly took great care of our kitty while we were traveling. She was always on time, well-communicating, and followed all the instructions nicely. I would definitely recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable sitter.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was quite apprehensive. Lauren took great care of my two cats. I was surprised that Mochi, who is usually very shy, warmed up to Lauren very quickly. Next time I have to travel, I can rest easy that they will be in good hands. Highly recommended.”
“Seven was very attentive and made sure all 4 of our family zoo members got their needed nutrition and enrichment. The photos helped us feel at ease and they communicated very well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Griffin was great while my wife and I were out of town! He took care of our two male cats, sent lots of pictures and left detailed notes after his visits. He was incredibly easy to communicate with, responsive and followed our instructions. We will definitely re-book with him in the future!”
“Super communicative and easy to work with. She took great care of our puppy and was super adaptive to her reactive needs. We will definitely be booking again ☺️”
“Cynthia took wonderful care of our old and very needy kitty. He has several medications to take each day and she handled it like a pro! She was easy to get ahold of and we felt took extra special care of our cat, keeping an eye on our concerns and reporting back regularly while we were away. We highly recommend Cynthia!”
About: I’ve been helping care for animals since I was a kid. I grew up with an amazing and loving black lab, Jesse, in my home, who I loved dearly and sadly lost to a heart attack when he was just 10. Since then, I’ve helped care for countless dogs, cats, horses and lots of other critters. I believe in pet care that is just as dedicated and intentional as people care :) My experience ranges from basic care of healthy cats and dogs of all ages (feeding, playing, exercising, snuggling, etc.) to administering medication and providing special care for aging cats and dogs. I also have experience caring for animals with medical conditions and special needs. I am a highly sensitive and intuitive care taker, and your animal’s comfort and safety are my top priority always. Most of all, I truly just love being around animals and providing them with a happy, healthy environment. I can’t wait to help care for your critters! I’m a full-time writer and artist from the Snoqualmie Valley. I work from home with a flexible hours, so I can work around just about any schedule. I’m also a morning person, so early morning animal care is not an issue. I take pet safety very seriously. I’m very vigilant about knowing where your animals are at all times, making sure they don’t get into hazards and, of course, making sure they have all the food, treats, toys and attention they need. For anyone interested in having me cat sit at my home, I have a calm, quiet apartment with no other housemates or animals. My landlord lives on the same property and has a high-energy corgi who does not enter my home so that I can maintain a cat-safe space :)
“Stef watched our cats for a week then we had to add on a day with last minute notice. She was able to take it on with no problem which we really appreciated. Both our cats are shy but it appears at least one of them came out when she was there for a photo. I w I ud use her again.”
“Mindy is great! She is a cat whisperer and our cat loved her from the start! Friendly, punctual, responsive and helpful. Sent us picture updates after every visit. Will hire her again.”
About: Growing up, my family welcomed many rescued animals into our home, from a beagle mix and a golden retriever to a Jack Russell terrier, turtle, guinea pig, bunny, and even a horse. My love for animals inspired me to start pet sitting for friends and family in high school, giving me experience caring for a variety of pets, including pit bulls, greyhounds, golden retrievers, Australian shepherds, and cats. Kaiti is a freelance photographer who works from home, which allows her plenty of time to visit, walk, and shower your pets with love. Quixem, her partner, is a journalist for KING 5 by day and joins her for overnight pet sitting. While Quixem is allergic to cats, Kaiti can still check in on your feline friends and keep them entertained whenever needed. When caring for pets in my home or my client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment to ensure pets feel secure and happy. I make sure to understand each pet’s unique needs and routines, from feeding schedules to favorite activities, so I can provide care tailored specifically to them. Building trust with pets and their owners is essential to me. I offer meet-and-greets before any new sitting arrangement to allow pets to get comfortable with me. For each stay, I send regular updates, photos, and notes on how your pet is doing, so you feel connected and reassured. My goal is to make you feel confident that your pet is in caring, capable hands.
About: After being with my shih tzu Charlie since I was 5 years old, I’ve grown to adore animals no matter their shape nor size! I’ve learned to care for dogs and cats in many ways! I’m completely free, anytime, anywhere, to take care of your animals! Preferably a day communication in advance would be great to take the best care of your pets. I’m able to handle aggressive and not trained animals as any other, as well as survey them 24/7. Living with two cats currently, I am able to always check up on them and provide the TLC needed!
“Another completely successful visit with Lindsay! Selfishly I hope she never moves - she makes me the most comfortable of anyone I’ve ever found on Rover and is so responsible and the most communicative. And most importantly, she takes the best care of my two kitties. I am so grateful I found her!!!”
About: Over the past 5 years, I have become the de facto dog sitter amongst friends and acquaintances across the Snoqualmie Valley. My experience even ranges to goats! I am currently setting up my work schedule as a dog trainer and will most likely be working Thursday-Sunday for around 6-7 hour shifts for the time being. I am most interested in keeping consistent with your pets needs and routine, while giving them all the love and attention as well! I am capable of administering medications, maintaining individual hygiene routines, adhering to your pet's special diet, and whatever else might be needed. I look forward especially to the cuddles and playtime.

Reagan is such a lovely, caring, wonderful pet sitter. She tended to our cat’s dietary needs exactly as requested, and was very loving and attentive to what she loves to do every day, like outings to the balcony and playing with her toys. I would book Reagan again in a heartbeat, she is phenomenal and so easy to work with. Thank you for everything, Reagan!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,968 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ellisville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
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 .

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
