About: Hello!! My name is Abby. I am a recent Physician Assistant graduate awaiting my first job in the health care field. I have grown up with a mixture of dogs in my life, have dog sat for years and recently have gotten my own dog Odie who is a Basset Hound. I love dogs and love caring for them. Currently, I am not working so I am very flexible in my availability! I can do morning, afternoon or evening walks. I can also help with breakfast or dinner or anything else you might need for your pet! I am very accommodating and can do pretty much anything you need for your dog. I am comfortable with crating, working on tricks, going on walks and whatever else they might need.

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so I will be sure to send you detailed updates and photos. I have a 7-year-old blue Pitbull of my own, who has taught me so much about caring for and understanding dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have spent plenty of time caring for dogs of friends and family. Some of the different breeds I’ve taken care of are bichon frisé, English bulldog, black lab, chihuahua, miniature golden-doodle, labradoodle, dachshunds, beagles and many more! I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I know that every dog is unique, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes each pup happy and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, lots of playtime, a little extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can have the best experience possible. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a sitter. ❤️🐶 Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve rather than trying to fit them into a busy work schedule. I’m flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule and make things as easy and stress-free as possible for you and your pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and making sure every pet feels comfortable in their own environment. I’m happy to care for pets in their home, where they can stay in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine. Before each stay, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I’ll make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure and will always be mindful of your pet’s safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.

About: I’m a responsible and caring pet lover with 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve provided walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention for family and friends’ pets. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for pet care throughout the week and can work pet visits into my schedule. I’m responsible, dependable, and will make sure I give each pet plenty of attention during every visit. I’m especially interested in regular walks and drop-in visits and will communicate with owners to make sure their pets receive the care they need. I’ve cared for family and friends’ dogs by taking them on walks, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they have plenty of food and water. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’ll follow each owner’s instructions carefully while making sure their pet feels safe and comfortable.

About: Hi, I'm Sam! I've been dog walking and pet sitting on Rover since 2022, and I grew up with pets my whole life — birds first, then dogs — so caring for animals has always felt like second nature to me. I also sit for cats and am comfortable administering medication. You'll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I send photos and updates every day, and more if you'd like them. Before every visit/stay, I'll want to know exactly what your pet needs, from their routine to their quirks, so they're comfortable while you're away. I work a hybrid schedule, so on weekdays I'm typically out for a few hours during the day, and your pet's routine (feeding, walks, downtime) stays consistent around that. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority, and I love building an ongoing relationship with the pets I care for. I'd love to meet you and your pup (or pets!) soon. I currently work a flexible hybrid schedule, so I have time to give your furry friend the love and attention they need! Drop-ins and walks fit easily into my day, and for house sits I'm usually out for a few hours at a time, so your pet's routine (feeding, walks, downtime) stays consistent around that. I'm very receptive to the needs/wants of the owner and am also quite good at judging when furry friends are unhappy or stressed. I'll follow your instructions closely, send updates and photos, and reach out right away if anything is unclear or seems off!

About: I grew up with pets and have taken care of small, medium, and large dogs of all ages. I don’t have one of my own right now so I love any chance I can get to give pups some love!! I would be available for early morning or late afternoon/evening walks most days. I have a slightly flexible, full-time job and am off on Mondays. I think the most important type of care for dogs comes with attentiveness to details, what they need, and what they want (pets and play!) I am a very detail oriented person and will make sure to keep track of instructions while also making sure your dog go has a great time.

About: Hi, I'm Miranda! I’m a dedicated animal lover with years of experience, and I'd love to care for your furry family members. I have transitioned from casual sitting to specialized care, meaning your pets are in highly capable hands. Feline Care: I have extensive experience with cats, including senior and medically complex felines who require extra patience and attention. Canine Care: I have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. This includes taking care of pups with disabilities and unique communication needs, such as sweet deaf dogs with visual commands. Exotics & Small Pets: I am also confident caring for birds, reptiles, fish, and other pocket pets. If you are in the Bellevue area and want a kind, trustworthy, dedicated, and highly communicative sitter to look after your animals, I am here to help! Message me today to schedule a meet & greet. I look forward to meeting your cute critters soon! :) I have very free availability at the moment, as I run my own business for work and make my own hours! Pet care is actually the crux of my personal daily routine. My own cute critter, my cat Flower, keeps me quite occupied at home, whether it's feeding her on schedule, giving her lots of playtime, or just snuggling up for some brushing. Rest assured, I'll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I would love to have an introduction meeting with you, virtual or in-person, so we can discuss your pet's needs, preferences, and schedule! Every pet is different, and it is very important that I understand your cute critter's individual personality so I can give them the quality care they deserve. During the introductory meeting, I will be sure to ask specifics about diet and medication, as well, so that no changes are made to their regular routine. I work hard to be timely and courteous by keeping pet owners updated about their cute critters while away, and will always make sure to include some pictures for you to enjoy! I make sure that I am accessible around the clock in case any questions or concerns arise while you're away.

About: I've cared for all kinds of animals and am happy to do dirty work that animals need to live clean. I'm a thorough, compassionate caretaker and I want to work with what your house and pets need. I work 5 days a week as a park ranger, but am looking for care opportunities in certain evenings and on weekends. I have two cats myself, which limits my boarding opportunities, but my schedule still allows for overnight stays. I have two cats myself, both are fed no-grain dry food and vitamin/oral supplements with wet food. One cat needs much play, exercise, and attention, while the other needs to be seen and talked sweetly to, and only pet while she eats. I've spent much time learning their behaviors and needs, and intend to do the same with every animal in my care. Even my snake had a way to tell me he was too cold or overhandled and wanted to be put back. I've had many guinea pigs and hamsters, and came up with creative ways to enrich them without endangering them. I've cared for many bugs, and know how and when to check their moisture levels, I do extended research on their diet needs and substrate needs, and I'll do the same for you. Animals and pets are family, though they can't tell you what they need, you can always learn and provide for them.

About: My friends regularly joke that my needs are similar to that of a dog: frequent walks and treats are all it takes to make me happy. I have cared for families and their loved pets for well over sixteen years; living in the owners house while on vacation or just dropping by periodically to check up. With our own pup, Thorin Oakenshield (Thor for short), our house is equipped with a large enclosed backyard, dog door, dog treats, toys (toys and more toys), and leashes. On Rover, I have cared for breeds of all types, but most extensively, I have cared for a Belgian malinois - hosting her for doggy daycare 30+ hours a week. The second dog i have cared the most for was special needs, so no matter the breed or the capabilities, know that I am comfortable, confident and competent I will be available full time throughout the week and on weekends: overnights accepted! I can work short term or long term and can travel, if need be, as I have a car and am willing to drive Our Thor gets along extremely well other dogs and children, so if you choose me to take care of your fur kid, you can rest assured they will get plenty of play time (if that's what you wish), plenty of rest (Thor adapts very well to other dogs energy levels, so senior pups can rest easy), and - of course - plenty of love! I currently have open availability: regardless of early morning or late nights, overnights, or weekends. I am happy to help however needed, so don't hesitate to reach out! I live in a home mere blocks from an elementary school. Our home has a large fenced in yard - with a dog door! My husband and I love dogs. In fact, my husband is far more likely to show them affection and love than he is to show me 😆 seriously, you should see his goodbyes with Thor v me in the morning... Your furkid will be inundated with as many pets and snuggles as their little heart desires, all while ensuring their safety and health.

I am trained to walk both strong dogs and shy dogs I do work full time and am a part time student so I’m looking for a lot of random flexible gigs while I’m off of work I’m comfortable entering homes to leash any dogs or provide care for drop ins. I’m skilled at getting my cat to take nasty meds as well

About: I don’t just watch dogs, I genuinely love spending time with them. I’m the kind of person who gets excited to meet every dog I pass on a walk! My goal is to make your dog feel loved, comfortable, and stress free while you’re away. Whether your pup is energetic and loves adventures or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. You can expect lots of belly rubs, playtime, patience, and plenty of photo updates. I work Monday through Friday from 8–5, so my primary availability for pet care is during weeknights and weekends. I’m very intentional about dedicating that time to the pets in my care and adjusting my routine to accommodate their normal schedule, whether that means walks, feeding times, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Since being without my Golden, I’ve honestly felt a little emptiness in my day, which has made me realize even more how integral caring for dogs is to my life. Because of that, pet care is something I genuinely prioritize, and I want every pet I care for to feel comfortable, loved, and like their routine is being respected. I understand that every dog is different, just like people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, boundaries, and communication style so I can adjust the way I interact with them based on what makes them feel most comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely while paying attention to the dog’s individual responses and needs. My goal is never to force a dog to adapt to me, but to understand how I can best fit into their routine and earn their trust so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owner is away.

About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.

Jessica's daily drop-ins were just what our orange boy needed while we were away. Her updates were great, we could tell from the photos that he appreciated not just the food (I mean, he LOVES food), but the company and the attention as well. If we take another long trip like this, we'll definitely be looking to bring her back to take care of him again.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Evergreen

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Evergreen is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,629 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Evergreen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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.

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.
