About: I am a 29 year old woman who loves creatures big and small. I had my dog for 16 years and loved her to pieces. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I currently have open availability to watch pets, whether stopping in during the day or spending a week with them. I understand pets like to be in their own environment and I can help them continue their routine, while you are away. I can adjust to your dogs routine. If they need feeding at certain times or take medication, it's all about them. I can provide cuddles and treats or let them lounge around, whatever they're feeling.
“Sweet - what wonderful photos. Nick builds rapport! I can see Maggie-Roo's comfort and joy. It's a great relief to know one's pet is happy when we have to be away. We'll see you again! Thank you.”
About: Hi my name is Isabella and I and a wildlife biologist who loves animals! I grew up with pets who I have taken care of since I was 10. After graduating from UW in 2025 I recently spent a year in Australia pet-sitting across the country. I absolutely loved caring for so many dogs and cats while I was there. I have experience with energetic puppies, senior dogs that require medication, dogs with leash aggression, and many cats as well. I am extremely tidy and will always treat your pets like family. After a year abroad, I am currently living at home with my parents so I have a lot of free time. I am very happy to hang out with your pets all day! I care for pets at their house. I am happy to stick to their normal routine. I love to go for walks and runs so I will walk them as much as they like. I am a very organized and tidy person and I will always be very respectful of your house.
“Matt is awesome. He slowly won our very apprehensive cat over, visit by visit. We came home to a happy cat and organized house. It felt like we weren’t gone at all. We will definitely have him watch our Ollie Bear next time we’re away ☺️”
About: I’m a reliable, attentive sitter with over 20 years of experience, treating every dog like my own. I am based between Seattle and San Juan Island. Whether you need a quick walk, a short overnight, or someone to stay at your home for an extended trip, I’m happy to help keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. I’m comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from high-energy pups to laid-back seniors, and I adapt my approach to what works best for your dog. I pride myself on being a punctual and consistent person. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they need, whether its daily walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. My goal is to create a calm, loving presence so your pets feel secure and cared for while you’re away. With attention to detail and genuine affection for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine and personality.
About: I have had pets of all kinds (dogs, cats, gerbils, goats, chickens, peacocks, lizards, a rat, and a pot-bellied pig) since I was a child. I love animals of every type and age. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I have plenty of time to love, care for, and play with your pets! I cannot wait to meet them! I will treat your pet(s) and your home with the utmost care. I know how important pets are and will make sure they are safe and loved!

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.

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.
