“Sylvia did a great job with our 3 dogs. 2 of the dogs are super reactive and fearful of strangers but they warmed up to Sylvia very quickly. My 16 year old senior dog with eating issues ate very well and enjoyed his daily walks.. She sent us daily pictures and videos of the dogs that reassured us that the dogs were happy and well looked after. I would definitely have her take care of our dogs again!”
About: I’ve dog and cat sit around the Island Country area for about a year. I’m very good with animals and keeping you updated on how things are going around the house while you’re away. :) I work during the day so I have evenings and mornings free to come check in, feed and play with your pets. Typically I am more free on the weekdays. We can talk more about boarding if needed. I will keep you updated on how your pets are doing and let you know without hesitation if anything concerning arises. I’m very communicative and punctual.
“Nicole did a fantastic job watching over our house and pets while we were away. I highly recommend her. Our house looked wonderful when we got home and the pets were all very happy.”
“Olivia is wonderful with our pets and takes great care of the house as well! She sends photos of all the fun she is having with our pups and they always look so incredibly happy! I’m so glad we found her!”
“Nikki did a great job taking care of my senior, deaf kitty who is on meds and a bit of a complicated feeding schedule. She was great about communication, and sent photos which was much appreciated. She was clean and respectful of our home as well. I would definitely recommend her”
“April was a wonderful sitter and Misty loved her. April sent pictures of misty often and April went beyond my expectations by taking her to my property for off leash romping and also kept the house clean and washed towels and sheets so I didn’t have to when I returned home.”
“Donna was incredible with our senior dog, Zooey! She sent super frequent updates with adorable pictures, and she took amazing care of our girl! My dog was happy as I clam when we returned from our week-long vacation, so I know she had a lovely week with Donna. I will be booking with her again next time Zooey needs a sitter!”
“Camilla did a fantastic job. She kept us up to date on Dante adventures throughout the week with photos multiple times a day. Camilla went out of her way to make sure he had plenty of exercise and Love while we were away. I Would highly recommend her services!!”
“Joe was so great at accommodating our last-minute booking! He was so easy to communicate with and flexible to meet our needs, as well as ensuring that our dog had a great friend for a handful of days and nights. He was great at providing updates along the way as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“First time doing a house sitter for our cat and Alexis was so great!! Very communicative, sent lots of photo/video, asked very appropriate questions to help with the house that we didn’t think to ask about. Very helpful in upkeeping the house in addition to caring for our cat. Would book again!!”
“Caitlin took good care of Jack and the house while we were away and went to the extra effort to make sure he had play time at the park with other dogs. Very friendly and seems to genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs under her care.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats most of my life, and during Covid—when I was working from home rather than at UW—I became a foster dog mom, which I loved. I retired in January and now happily spend much of my time in my art studio. Alas, there are no pets in my life at the moment, so I’d love the chance to be with yours! I especially enjoy the companionship of animals and the ordinary, unhurried time that comes with caring for them—walks, play, hanging out, and simply being together. Being retired means I have something that can be hard to find: time without a rush. I’m a homeowner with a flexible schedule, and I can give a pet my attention rather than squeezing their care into the edges of a busy day. I’m not a full-time sitter, and I don’t administer medications, but I’m happy to provide attentive, dependable care and plenty of affection. I’m also hoping to make pet sitting part of my longer-term adventures—spending time with wonderful animals on South Whidbey or the San Juan Islands, and eventually pet sitting in interesting places abroad. It seems like a pretty lovely way to travel: get to know a place through the eyes of a local pet, and have a furry companion along the way. For now, I’d be very happy to borrow yours. I’m retired from the UW in January and am working in my art studio, walking the beach or working out at the gym with a very flexible schedule. So there’s no fixed routine, which I love. I’m happy to adjust my routine to your per/s! Pets thrive on familiar routines, so I’m happy to follow your preferred schedule for meals, playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship, and other daily activities, helping your cat feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“We like Matthew and were very pleased with the care he provided for our 2 dogs and our home while we were traveling out of the country for 3 weeks. Our dogs love him and he was always very understanding of their unique personalities, behaviors & preferences. He provided updates with photos throughout our time away and was very responsive to our messages as we checked in on our dogs, despite the 8 hour time difference between Washington State and the United Kingdom. We would gladly trust him with our dogs & our home again in the future!”
“When another sitter cancelled last minute, Emma was there to save my week! She asked all the right questions, was immediately responsive whenever I messaged, and sent photos during my time away, reassuring me everything was going well. Most importantly, my girl was very happy and playful when I returned - she definitely loves Emma, (and apparently learned how to actually bring the ball back for more play instead of keeping it ?). If you want a reliable, trustworthy sitter who will give your pup all the loves and attention while you’re gone, Emma’s the one you need to call!!”
About: I have grown up around pets my entire life, owning multiple dogs, from a range of small to large size dogs. I have a very flexible schedule with an easy to accommodate home. Nice neighborhood for walks! Would be more than happy to take care of your pet and host them whenever needed. I am a very open person who is more than willing to accommodate any person’a needs or requests! I work a flexible schedule and make pet care part of my daily routine. Pets will get regular potty breaks, walks, feeding times, play sessions, and attention throughout the day. I can provide updates, photos, and consistent care to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where safety comes first. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and exercise needs. I always supervise pets, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free in my care or in a client’s home
About: I grew up around dogs all my life! I used to volunteer watching over my friends dogs. I understand how precious each and every dog is, and I intend to treat them with the loving they deserve! I work full time Monday thru Friday. I get home around 4:30. But I am usually free on the weekends. Just shoot me a message and I’ll come watch your pups! I have a fenced in back yard, filled with grass. I have a couple of shiba Inus. They are sweet and love meeting new friends!
“Katie stepped in on very short notice to care for Petunia for three days, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. It's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I would definitely book with Katie again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Greenbank on Rover is $123.57 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,651 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greenbank. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Greenbank walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Greenbank maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Greenbank choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Greenbank. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
