“Kyleigh was amazing! With her having watched my dog over Fourth of July weekend, she took great care of her and making sure she was settled in with the additional noise. 100% will use her again!”
About: What makes me stand out from other dog sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had multiple dogs throughout my entire life, including different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of dogs and understanding their individual needs. I also have plenty of experience dog sitting for other people and treating their pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I’m dependable, responsible, and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I can also provide references from people I’ve dog sat for in the past who can speak about their experience with me. I am active duty army , but I would not accept any job that I know will conflict with my schedule. I am available to take your dog for a walk/ feed them and anything else you would like me to do at least 3 times a day. I am pretty flexible when it comes to dog parents and what they want me to do. Your safety of your animals is my top priority!
“Tiffany was amazing! She took such good care of our 4 dogs while we were out of town for the week. She kept them on schedule and in their normal routines, it's like we were even gone! She went above and beyond to make sure we came home to a calm house.”
“Will be using again! Very friendly and communicative!! Sent me photos of my pups 🐶 & gave me a detailed report which I loved! It gave me peace of mind that they were in great hands!!”
“Katie was great, she was very responsive from the very beginning, even before taking the job. We had no worries about Zucca being taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely request Katie again.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for six years, mid size and smaller. I know how to care for a dog in the puppy and adult, not very familiar with senior dogs. I want to help get your furry friend when you need it! I work a regular 9-5 office job, and recently moved to WA. I miss my pets terribly and are unable to have some of my own right now. I want to help care for someone’s pet while I can on my off time, mainly afternoon and evenings. In my clients home, with permission and guidance from them, I will go above and beyond to ease their pet to a new person and make the sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy.
“Emily was fantastic! She took good care of our cat Bug and sent some adorable photos. We appreciated her flexibility with her time. We will be booking her again!”
“Lauren and Dalton were awesome!!!! My dogs looked like they were having a blast!!!! I received updates that included amazing pictures!!!! I will definitely be using Lauren and Dalton in the future!!!!”
“Chow was fantastic. We have always used a friend of the family to take of Piper, but this time, it didn't work out. Chow was so wonderful, attentive, managed to get a very shy Piper to come out, even get some cute photos. I highly recommend her and would ask for her again.”
About: I love ALL animals and have been looking for something to keep me active and couldn’t think of anything I’d rather do! Fully capable of walking any type of dog or just dropping in to check up on them or your kitties! I have 3 dogs ranging from 11 lbs to 130 lbs, as well as 2 kittens. Frank: Cane Corso mix Moose: Goldendoodle Scout: Miniature Dachshund Frito & Stump: Kittens I know trusting someone with your babies can be difficult so please reach out with any questions you may have so I can make sure that you and your pet feel comfortable. I work full time usually from around 8-5 but I come home daily on my lunch to let my dogs out and am off on the weekends. My boyfriend is a huge animal lover also and works from home often so your pet will never be left alone for more than 4 hours max. I live in a house with a fenced yard and a neighborhood with plenty of trails and sidewalks for walks. I always keep my animals separate from any animals I’m watching when unsupervised (even when they’re all friendly) just to be cautious and don’t accept reservations from more than 1 family at a time.
About: I have been a professional dog groomer for over 12 years, working with all breeds and ages of dogs. I have had pet dogs and cats of my own for as long as I can remember. Dogs are my passion and I'd love to continue working with them for as long as I can. I also enjoy walking and hiking, and taking four legged friends with me would make it even better. I am currently taking a break from professional dog grooming but miss interacting with numerous dogs in my day-to-day life. Currently, I am available any day from 10am-7pm. I am currently living in an apartment that has two dog parks and a mile long trail on site. One of my dogs is extremely friendly and playful, while the other is older and prefers to nap all day.
“Bre rooked really good care of our kitties. Even though it was a last minute request, she accommodated setting up a last minute meet n greet and looking after my kitties. She provided several updates, pictures and loved on them while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to any pet owners looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I love dogs and I would love to help you out by watching your dog! It is something that I would enjoy doing and serving you. I will make sure your dog is well taken care of and that you are satisfied with me while taking care of your dog. I know that your dog is super important to you so I am going to make sure that I take excellent care of your animal. I will also make sure that your dog and I are best friends! Being friends with dogs is sure interesting but also super fun! I have had a dog for all of my life and have always loved taking my dog on a walk and so much more!! I have enjoyed playing with my dog too!
About: I am a phlebotomist and medical lab assistant currently looking for work. I recently moved to Washington and love it here. I grew up being around cats and dogs. I have one cat named Binx. I’ve helped family and friends with their dogs and cats. I’ve taken them on walks, given them baths, helped with their training, play with them, clean up their litter boxes, brush them, given them medicine, and even gone to the park. I feel like I am the best choice because I respect and love animals. I always make sure they are happy, healthy, and safe. I do accept both cats and dogs. I do not discriminate against any breed or size. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. I will care for for each animal as if they are my own. I am looking forward to meeting new friends. I am currently looking for work since I moved here and I am pretty open . I am available from the mornings until 3pm or 4pm depending on my schedule. If you have any questions please reach out. I care for each animal as if they were my own. I will make sure they are fed and have water, give them space when they need it, play with them, walk them, give them company, pet them, bath them if needed, etc. I understand each animal has their own unique personalities and require different needs. I will ask for as much information as I need, to give them the best care.

Jonah went above and beyond. I asked for minimal tasks and he simply went ahead and did things with no needed guidance. He has a caring heart for all of our cute animals. Please please pleaseee book this amazing person. YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY WORRIES under this prestigious care.
Amanda is really amazing with our 12 year old dog. She is on time with all of her visits and leaves wonderfully detailed reports and photos to let us know exactly how things are going. She's also great about giving medicines, which I appreciate since that can get tricky. I trust Amanda with both my dog and my kids and would 100% recommend her.
Angela was nothing short of amazing. My corgi, gizmo isn’t the easiest dog to deal with due to his past in his last home he was in. She walked my little man a lot and made sure he was taken care of. 20/10 would recommend to have her take care of your fur family

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fort Lewis is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 4,444 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Lewis. 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Lewis. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
