“Lila is a Fantastic dog sitter&walker. She has Provided our dog with gentle care, companionship and good exercise. We have been visiting Port Townsend and some places we could not take our dog, Lola. We requested Lila to house sit with her and it’s worked out well. Lola is happy when she sees Lila & content when we get back. it’s a good match! :-)”

About: I grew up with a lab and a german shepherd, and my family now has a golden doodle. We got him as a super active puppy, I helped train him to be a service dog, and now he's 11 years old! I've been pet sitting since high school on and off, whenever any neighbors or friends needed help. I love playing with dogs, petting them, and going on walks (walking is even better with dogs)! I've watched multiple of my friends cats, and have shared apartments with many cats as well. I've always been and will forever be an animal lover, and since moving to Washington I've been missing my animal time!! I am attending the School of Wooden Boat Building, which has classes M-F all day. However, there is a lunch break that I could drop in during, as long as they are close to the school. I would be able to make early mornings and all evenings after 5:30pm work, as well as all day on the weekends. I'm unable to keep pets in my apartment, however I've taken care of animals in lots of different kinds of houses/apartments. I am able to crate dogs, make sure indoor cats don't escape, etc.
“Ari has done drop-in and overnight stays with our very shy large dog. She’s been very reliable and kind, and our home is always immaculate when we return. Hope to book with her many times again in the future!”

Eleanor was an angel. I had my first real vacation of my life. I had always been too worried to leave my sweet scaredy cat girl, who runs from everyone. Eleanor went above and beyond. My girl Hazel felt comfortable with Eleanor almost immediately. Eleanor really put in the calm, quiet time to give my girl just what she needed. Hazel was not only fed, she was pet, combed, played with and had lap time. Eleanor is my hero. I now have a freedom I didn’t know I could have. I also got wonderful pictures and videos with every visit. I recommend 100% x infinity
Whitney was wonderful! She checked in on Macy three times while I was away for the day, and Macy clearly enjoyed her company. I especially appreciated the brisk walking pace Whitney could give her—unlike Mom, who’s getting a little old and can’t quite keep up! 😊 I would absolutely hire Whitney again, and I definitely will. Highly recommend!
Danica was amazing. Our 19 month old Golden was supposed to be Boarded for a weekend get away and the company said his vaccines were not up to date. I did a last minute booking and Danica was a lifesaver. It’s obvious Bandit loved her and her son. As new people to the area it feels wonderful to have someone who will look after our dog on our weekend adventures. I highly recommend Danica for all your needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
