“Axell did a great job looking after our 2 cats. They communicated well, sent us photos and videos and did everything we asked and more. For instance, there was a wind storm while we were gone and axell cleared branches off of our walkway. One of our cats has asthma and requires medicine twice a day so we are so happy that we had such a reliable cat sitter!”
“I have a diabetic cat who's afraid of everyone and requires insulin injections 2x a day. I have not been able to find anyone willing to take on this challenging situation, until I found Cassie on Rover. I swear she can walk on water and is a cat whisperer. She took the time to come and watch me do a glucose test and insulin injection before the first trip I've been able to take in 7 yrs , knowing she would take good care of Punkin. I was gone for 8 days and she came twice a day and Punkin didn't hide from her like she does with everyone but me. I could not recommend her highly enough and will definitely be planning longer trips, using Cassie without worrying my cat would suffer. If you want a sweet, reliable and caring cat sitter, you want Cassie on Rover.”
“Xiaotong was great! She was very responsive and reliable. We appreciated that she was able to come for a meet and greet at the last minute and then took good care of our cats when we were gone.”
“Great experience with Nathaly! She was sweet and caring to our dogs while we were gone and sent pictures which always makes it easier when we have to leave them for the weekend. Will definitely be reaching out to her again when we need her.”
“Monica is by far the BEST & most reliable cat sitter. Our cat is an escape artist & she kept him in our apartment and safe the entire month we were gone. She went above and beyond to send me hundreds of photos and videos while we were gone. Maintained a clean and safe area for the cats and when we came home our house was spotless. I’ve had 3 cat sitters in the past and Monica is by far the golden cat sitter. I’d hire her again in a heart beat & plan on doing so in the near future. I felt so at ease leaving Monica with my two cats!”
“This was the third time Amanda (and her family) has taken care of Señorita Magdalena Marseilles (18 years old) and we're consistently pleased with how good and happy our cat is when we pick her up. Recommended for any cat that you love.”

I’m happy to provide any necessary care before I have to leave for work around 1pm, after work around 12:30am, or on any of the days I’m off! I have a small, fenced back yard for any quick potty trips but am keen on taking many walks. I live in a pet free environment and can ensure the highest quality care with your fur babies!

“Gina has been amazing with Angel! Angel can be anxious and doesn’t do well with walking in the rain but Gina still takes her out. Also, Gina has been great with last minute changes/requests. Gina’s help gives us so much peace of mind!”
“Isabel took wonderful care of our cat Esther while we were on vacation, including cleaning her litter box and sending great photos and videos of her. We came home to a happy healthy feline. Esther recommends Isabel if you are looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter, and we recommend her too.”
About: I am an Animal Science graduate and have been taking care of pets of all breeds and sizes since I was little. I have watched friends and family’s pets for many years. I am back home in Seattle from college and will be looking for a part time job. My schedule will be pretty free to do any services morning, evenings, or weekends! I have a fenced backyard and one miniature poodle and one cat at home. There is a doggy door and plenty of toys to share.

I’m organized, dependable, and able to plan visits, walks, and care around my schedule to ensure every pet receives the exercise, comfort, and support they need. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and lots of love, whether I’m visiting them in their home or caring for them in my own space. I make sure to follow their normal routines, including meals, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from their owners. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.
“Shannon is great and we would definitely use her again! She checked in on our pup without even meeting him first, and also accepted our last injure request. She sent us detailed updates and great photos during her drop in. Our pup looked like he was well cared for and loving her! Thanks again.”

About: I have been walking dogs for several years now, and love running with dogs who need extra exercise! Love playing with and giving care to pups and cats at home also. Currently going to community college and hoping to spend time making sure animals are well taken care of in my free time! I’m currently going to school and have a lot of free time on Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends to spend time with pets! Other days I am able to stop by for shorter amounts of times but I am available most days for at least a short time. I will be able to watch your pets at your home according to their regular schedule so that they are not too thrown off by their owner being gone! Whatever your pets need to feel more normal and at ease during the time you are away, I am confident I can deliver.
About: I've had pets all my life, and have worked at pet stores, kennels and vets. Animals are my true passion and calling and I do not discriminate against any species. I am currently unemployed and looking for a part-time way to make some extra cash. I figure, why not do something I love. My schedule is pretty open. I can do anything outside of my own home. I have cats and a dog, and don't think they would appreciate the company of other pets.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Federal Way
Rose was amazing! Truly gave me peace of mind while we were gone knowing my babies would have someone checking on them. It was also so so nice to come home to a cleaner cat box than what we would’ve had we left them by themselves!! Highly recommend Rose to care for your fur babies
Cassie did such an amazing job with our kitty! We have a fairly high maintenance Maine Coon, and Cassie kept her brushed, played with her, and loved on her. She sent great pictures and thorough Rover Cards every day. It was such a comfort knowing she was well cared for while we were gone. She also took care of my plants and bird feeders. I highly recommend her services. She is kind, diligent, and professional.
Christi was amazing—on her fourth visit, one of my cats was suddenly really lethargic and clearly unwell (based especially on a video of him hiding, very out of character). I flew back early, but she was able to take him to the vet so he could get treated immediately since it was going to be several hours until I could make it back. She stayed with him at the vet until they were able to release him. It's obvious that she knows cats and loves them. All my other cats were happy when she visited to distribute food and lots of pets.
We love Kimberly! More important, our cats adore her too! She keeps us well informed, responds in great time, and we know our home and animals are in good hands. Whether we are traveling locally or abroad, that comfort is priceless. We're repeat customers and heartily recommend Kimberly.
Morgan did a great job taking care of my two cats. She sent me photos and updates. She made time to entertain my babies and gave them treats. Morgan was very organized. When we first met she was taking down notes to try and meet my preferences. Morgan was very communicative, if she was unsure of any instructions or concerns she asked for more information. I would definitely hire her services again.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Federal Way is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 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.

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 .

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.
