“Rebecca R. did such a great job for us! She sent daily correspondence and pics letting us know exactly how they were doing. Rebecca was really sweet with our girls and even visited them under the bed where they hide. She was on time for every visit and kept their daily schedule, which was nice. Our home was left in excellent condition. I will definitely be using her in the future. My husband, kitties and I highly recommend, Rebecca.”

“Alex was great with our cat, Taydo. Taydo was very shy during the meet and greet and anxious around strangers, but I was happily surprised to see how quickly she warmed up to Alex during her drop ins. Alex was also very communicative and provided detailed daily updates and great pictures of Taydo while we were out of town which we loved!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life and have always had at least two dogs in my home. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and others on and off for the past few years, caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. I currently have two senior dogs who I’ve raised since they were puppies, so I’m especially comfortable with older dogs and giving them the patience and care they need. I absolutely adore dogs and would love to make pet care a bigger part of my life. I’m currently 18 and attending Bellevue College while living at home, which gives me a stable and comfortable environment for caring for pets. I’m currently a college student with classes in the mornings Monday through Friday, so I have plenty of availability outside of class before 8:50 AM and after around 11:30 AM. My schedule is consistent, and I can plan pet care around my classes. I’m currently looking for work, but I will always make sure I can fully commit to any pet-care booking I accept. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for someone’s pets. I’m not currently able to offer boarding or pet care in my own home, but I’m happy to care for pets in their home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, make sure pets have access to anything they need, and give them plenty of attention and supervision. I’ll also be respectful of your home and keep you updated while you’re away.

About: I have been helping out with family and friends pets for about 12 years. I grew up with dogs and I have 3 cats now. I am a swim lessons teacher, so I have lots of am availability! I do not drive, so I bus and walk to all locations! I have done a total of 5 visits in a day so far! I firmly believe that outside time with a pet that hasn't had regular interaction with a person should be on a leash. I would hate to be in a situation where their safety or someone/something else's is jeopardized

About: [Preferred name: Keith , He/They] I’ve helped take care of my family dogs since age 10, most being larger dog breeds (german shepherd, huskies, pitbull). From puppy chaos, to older dog care I’ve seen it all. Willing to accommodate for whatever needs- All dogs have their unique quirks and even if its tucking them in at night, Im up to it! I currently work a part time stocking job that allows me to make my own schedule, so my availability is very flexible! For meet & greets I am usually free sometime between 10am and 6pm. Best Contact Hours: 8am to 8pm (PT) I remain available for contact through message or call consistently! If desired updates during care may be sent, whether requested beforehand or spontaneously. [including pictures & videos of course!!] I have reliable transportation and am also willing to allow pets in my vehicle. Of course accidents occur, for such I have a waterproof pet blanket to prevent damage of any kind! [accidents or extra cleaning will never bring complaints/charges as it is expected with pets]

About: Hi, I’m Jamie! Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve had both cats and dogs over the years and have cared for pets through every stage of life, from wiggly puppies to senior pets needing extra love. Along the way, I’ve picked up experience in training, end-of-life care, and reading pet body language to make sure every animal feels safe and understood. I work from home full-time and also run my own business, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets. That means I can be there when you need someone reliable, whether it’s for walks, check-ins, or extra cuddles. My goal is always simple: to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for, just like they’re part of my own family. At home, I have two dogs and a cat—each with their own quirks and personalities—so I know firsthand how important it is to follow specific instructions and give each animal the attention they need. I’d love the chance to care for your pets and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home and I own my own business so I am able to make my own schedule which gives me some flexibility when it comes to offering pet care. My goal is always to make sure animals feel comfortable with me and I am comfortable with following specific care instructions. I have 2 dogs and a cat at home who all have very different personalities and needs.

About: 35 yrs in the zoo/aquarium world, consultant state wise and over seas, have had dogs and animals all shapes and sizes in my care, specialized in larger mammals, have had dogs all my life I’m currently very available. So, a good deal of my time is spent doing things with my dog, Bailey. I believe every interaction is an opportunity to learn and influence knowledge as well as shape, create or even retrain different behaviors. To start with pets new to me it’s a lot of gaining likes, dislikes, training methods, favorite toys and foods, also any training goals and how we might approach those goals as well as discussing behaviors we would want to eliminate.

“Briana was amazing! She agreed to come by for a short visit before the booked time to meet George and get a walkthrough of his needs and the space, she was super friendly and kind and listened to my rambling list of things to know to take care of George. While I was gone, she sent frequent updates with pictures and descriptions of how he’d been and how they’d played together. George was happy and healthy when I came home and I’m so grateful that she kept him company and took care of him.”

About: I have cared for large and small pets, old and young. From cats to dogs to feeding snakes, I'll do it all. I have administered various forms of medications and I am comfortable giving shots or pills. I have experience training both young and old dogs for obedience and learning tricks like shake, sit, roll over, etc. I am working a full time job in the mornings on weekdays, however I am available in the afternoons for walks and check-ins, and weekends for house sitting. I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space to run around, or I can keep your pet company in your own home. I know plenty of safe and enclosed dog parks, and I can take your dogs for walks around your neighborhood.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Fairwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Fairwood is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $42 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 October 2026, there are 6,729 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fairwood. 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 .

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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairwood. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

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 , 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.
