“Clarissa was amazing! I needed a cat sitter last minute, and she was there for me right away. She was super responsive and even made time to meet with me the same day I booked. She was incredibly sweet with my cats and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I definitely know who I’ll be calling next time I need cat care!”
“Katie is incredible with dogs!! My rescues have behavior issues that she knew exactly how to handle. She is very professional and looking forward to her taking care of my pups in the future!!”
“It was a pleasure working with Kelsey while I was gone visiting family. She showed up at the time scheduled, gave my rabbits attention, cleaned up their area often, and communicated consistently. She even brought them lettuce and crafted a little hay roll in a paper towel cardboard for them to play with. I could tell my rabbits were happy and healthy. I would recommend Kelsey and plan to reach out to her again in the future!”
“Tatiana and Alex went above and beyond taking care of my bunnies! They took great pictures and always cleaned up even when not asked. Very thankful that they did this during the holiday season!! Thank you”
“Kyleigh does such a wonderful job with my girl! I get updates and lots of pictures every time she visits! She is my go to dog sitter if I need her! If you ever need a sitter she is your girl!”
“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.”
“Angel is one of the best pet sitters I've had in a while. He took his time to get to know Luna and I. He stuck to our normal routine (even though he didn't need to). He was also great and professional when it came to scheduling.”

“Tabitha always comes through in a pinch. I really appreciate her ability to be flexible with scheduling and check on my dog last minute when I have a work or personal emergency”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. I’ve taken care of many different breeds of dogs. I have been trusted to take care of, walk, feed and play with friends and families dogs and cats In both my own home and theirs. Both of my dogs have passed away now. My boy was 14.5 years old when he passed in June 2026. My girl passed in April 2024. Being able to care for other animals while not fully ready to have my own fur baby again will help me with the loneliness of not having my baby here any longer. I am available for all care levels from drop in to house sitting. I am currently unemployed, so i currently have open availability to walk and care for others pets. I am available any day of the week, and look forward to connecting with you and your beloved fur babies. I have a nice size yard that is fully fenced allowing dogs to be able to run and play freely. I do have another dog in the home who is friendly with other dogs, she is an Australian Shepherd. I am able to crate either dog at anytime if necessary. I am a big cuddle lover, if you prefer your animals not to be on the couch, please let me know so I don’t have them on the furniture.

I am open and flexible to your schedule and pet care needs. First meeting would be about meeting your pet to establish a relationship of trust and then figure what services best suite your fur baby I can provide safe walking and in home pet care.

Also interacting with them to provide mental exercises to keep them from getting bored.
“Sarah did a great job letting our dogs out. Especially because we adopted one of them two and a half weeks ago and she is still adjusting to her new environment. Sarah is reliable and caring. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for great pet sitter.”
About: I used to help my family and friends take care of their cats and dogs when they don't have time. I used to take care of a homeless cat a few years ago. I plan to have a cat and small dog in the future. Pet care fits well into my current schedule. I am generally available in the afternoons and evenings on weekdays, which allows me to provide visits, drop-ins, or daycare at my home during those times. On weekends, I have a more flexible schedule and can accommodate a wider range of needs, including longer visits or extended care. I make sure to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for so they receive consistent attention, timely feeding, playtime, and any special care they may need. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet in my care, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I make sure the space is pet-friendly, free of hazards, and comfortable. I supervise pets closely, keep a consistent routine for feeding and playtime, and provide a quiet area for rest. I only accept pets that are a good fit for the environment to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and house rules. I respect the pet’s usual environment to minimize stress and keep their schedule as normal as possible. I also make sure doors, windows, and any outdoor access points are secure at all times. For both settings, I focus on building trust by providing regular updates, photos, and clear communication. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being, so I can quickly respond if anything seems unusual.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Lewis
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

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Lewis stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
