“We are so lucky to have found Thomas. We had to go out of town for a few days and needed someone to take care of out 2 pups. We found Thomas and he came over to our house and met the pups first. They immediately took to him. He came back once again before the sit to see exactly how we feed and their routine. (he lives nearby). He sent multiple pics and videos during the sit and the pups were having a great time. He took them for 2 long walks a day and took care of our garden and kept our home safe. Upon our return, the house was perfect and the pets happy and well cared for. We will definitely invite him back in the future!”

About: Grew up surrounded by cats, dogs, and other animals. Passionate about caring for pets, with years of hands-on experience raising and nurturing them, I would love to come and help you out! I'm currently working on earning my GED while also looking for a part-time job to build experience and stay productive. Outside of my studies, I take care of three cats, They're a big part of my daily routine—I spend time feeding them, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get enough play and attention. Caring for them has helped me become more responsible, patient, and good at managing my time. I’m ready to take those skills into a part-time role and learn even more along the way. When caring for a dog and cat in a client’s home, follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter or waste, offer attention, and ensure a safe, clean environment daily. As well as daily walks and any special instructions from clients!
“Valerie was incredible! We have two spoiled pugs and one of them is not well mannered, barks non stop and has separation anxiety/issues. He is great with his parents but we were very concerned with having someone else watch him for 2 days. She was very patient and understanding of his needs, very punctual and communicative. We got update pictures and texts and the house was left perfectly. Would definitely rebook if we ever had another event we could not have our pups. And absolutely would recommend!! 11/10”
“Jennifer was wonderful with our girls which are two great danes. She took our girls for walks, sent updates everyday (including photos), and brought new toys as a treat. My wife and I are very pleased and will definately book with jennifer again!”
About: It is my pleasure keep your fur babies in your home and following your routine. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, chickens, ducks, and alpacas. I am a digital nomad with familial ties in the Seattle area. I grew up in East Texas and traveled the globe before I moved to the Seattle area in 2003. I have lived all over Puget Sound: Eastside, South King County, the Peninsula, and Everett. After three years in Nashville, I returned to the area in the summer of 2025. I love collecting new stories and finding beauty everywhere I go. Pet sitting gives me the opportunity to keep writing my contemporary women’s fiction novels while being close to family and PNW scenery. I have a tremendous love and respect for the animals that we share the planet with. I will follow your instructions for how to best care for the beloved animal(s) in your home.
About: I’ve been a mom to small dogs most my adult life. I currently have a chill 7 lb shih tzu mix that would love company on our two daily walks. I work part-time and am never away for more than 4 hours. (Often my college age son is home when I’m out) I’ve taken care of very young pups as well as older dogs requiring medications and special diets. I’m responsible and loving, doing my best to keep pups content while their people are away. I’m communicative and responsive and provide daily pupdates. I work two to three days a week for no more than 4 hours, so I’m home a lot. I have a 7 year-old shih tzu mix that I walk twice a day so I have a good routine established. My college age son lives with me and is super helpful and responsible. Generally if I’m out, he’s home to give extra potty breaks and belly rubs. My back yard is quite big and securely fenced-lots of room for sniffing! My house is cozy and comfortable-I’m happy to have pups on my lap on the couch and in my bed for the night. I do host up to 3 dogs at a time and have a small pup of my own, so I ask that your dog is well socialized.
About: I have fostered cats and dogs for rescue organizations for years. I volunteer for Pasado's Safe Haven and Doggone Seattle. I completed the Fear Free Shelters training. In my professional life, I worked for non-profit healthcare and research organizations in Seattle for 20 years. I am a strong communicator, honest, trustworthy, and reliable. I’m happy to do 2-5 miles walks with active dogs or chill with an old slow one. I’m looking for animal housesitting opportunities in the greater SF Bay Area and northern CA. I have a reliable car. I have a 9 year old dog with me. She’s been wonderful with 10 different foster dogs we’ve hosted and she’s incredibly gentle and respectful with other dogs. I am neat, clean, and quiet. I’m playful and affectionate with animals at their comfort level. I match my energy to theirs and let them come to me when they’re ready. I love walking 5-6 miles a day. I have a set of training games I enjoy to help me bond with your pets. I wil provide you with a diary of the visit and pictures of our time together.
About: With me, your pup is never competing for attention. I provide exclusive, one-on-one care so they feel safe and at home. I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years, including Italian Greyhounds, Dachshunds, Whippets, Chihuahuas, Poodles, Border Collies, and Terriers. My lifestyle is quiet and calm, which makes me especially attuned to sensitive, low-energy, and senior dogs who need a little extra understanding. My own dog, Clark, a whimsical and willful 12-year-old Poodle, recently passed from mitral valve disease which progressed to congestive heart failure. While this is sadly common in Poodles and other small breeds, it’s never enough time to say goodbye. Dogs will always be a part of my life, and I’d be honored to welcome yours into a calm and nurturing home. Through supporting Clark, I became deeply experienced in senior care- administering oral medications, monitoring for signs of distress, and creating a peaceful environment where he could feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable with medication management, light grooming (teeth brushing if tolerated, baths, and nail trims), and I keep essentials like pee pads, a litter box, and a playpen for dogs who are dual-trained or prefer enclosed rest. I also have a backpack carrier for pups under 15 lbs who like to come along on errands. I live near downtown Seattle, so I’m very vigilant during walks. I keep dogs on a close leash when needed, and for small dogs I’ll scoop them up if a large dog, bike, or scooter is approaching or when crossing busy streets. Safety is always my top priority. I’m typically home all day, and if I do step out, it’s never for more than 3–4 hours. I know the local emergency vets in Seattle and can quickly recognize signs of illness or stress. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care that feels like an extension of your own love for your dog. Since I’m currently in school remotely, I’m home all day to provide attention and care. I may run errands but takes no more than 3-4 hours. If your pet is under 15lbs, I can Carry them in my backpack pet carrier and they can come with me. My apartment building is very secure. A fob is required on entry. The building is quiet and I like to keep a short leash upon entering and leaving.
“Our little Molly is 18, hard of hearing and has poor eyesight. Despite her age, she still goes up and down the staircase to our bedroom where she spends most of her time. Given her needs, we looked for a stay-in caretaker. Alyssa was a great fit because she works remotely so she was able to work from our house. She took wonderful care of Molly and kept us informed on how things were going so we were able to enjoy our trip. We came home to a happy and relaxed dog, a clean and tidy house, laundered linens, plus a lovely vase of flowers and thank-you note. We will definitely reach out to Alyssa the next time we travel!”
“Ella is great with my pup! She responds quickly and has agreed even at the last minute to help watch her. She sends lots of photos and keeps her engaged throughout the stay. Will continue to book with her :))”
About: I’ve had various types of pets since I was a kid. I love taking care of animals and getting to hang out with them. I can’t wait to meet yours! :) I am currently working part time and I can take care of pets before or after work. My availability is rather open, though I do have more openings in the evening. I can pet-sit overnight most days of the week :) I have a medium/large fenced yard, which is perfect for playing fetch in! I also go on walks regularly around my neighborhood and would love to take your pets with me :)

The average cost of House Sitting in Hansville is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $111 per night.

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 Hansville 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 Hansville 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 Hansville 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 , 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 .
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 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.
