About: Ever since the age of 5, my family has always had pets around us. From rabbits to cats, to dogs, and even Beta or Goldfish. After I moved to the Pacific Northwest at 21, I adopted a stray cat. Unfortunately a year into taking care of him, he passed away due to uncurable health issues. After I mourned and missed him, I went on to adopt and raise a 2 month old female gray kitten, who is now 11 years old. I also have a Blue Heeler/Cocker spaniel mix who I adopted from the pound 6 years ago. He was middle aged when I adopted him so I really got to learn how to manage an older dog by taking care of specific needs and having regular vet check ups. Two years ago, I adopted two teenage gray sister cats, who are now almost 3. My fur babies are a tight nit family who gets along with one another, and I am proud to watch them grow and flourish in the lifestyle I have made for them. As for experience, aside from taking care of the family pets growing up and being a long time pet owner, I worked at Red Rover dog sitting company back in 2017 for about a year, going to peoples' homes for either a 20 minute dog walk, hour long dog park adventure, or overnights for dogs if owner was going to be out of town and needing something more long term. Due to how busy I was at the time, working a full time set scheduled job, I was unable to make spare time. In the last few months, I have no other obligations with needing to work full time, and am ready to take care of other peoples' animals. I have always taken joy in helping others out with their pets because I know how hard it can be when people have to go to work, be gone all day, go camping a few days, or traveling several days. I know about that lifestyle all too well and always love when people I trust watch my pets. If you want a reliable pet sitter who your pets will become familiar with fast, I may be a good fit for you. I currently do this full time so I have a lot of flexibility. Just reach out to me and I will allot a time block for your pet :) Services Offered I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight pet care. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comfortable as possible. Drop-In Visits Drop-in visits include potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention. I can accommodate up to three drop-in visits per day, depending on availability. Overnight Pet Sitting For overnight stays, I remain at your home overnight and spend the majority of my time with your pet. Because I have a dog of my own, I may need to briefly return home throughout the day to care for him. These trips are typically limited and scheduled around your pet’s needs, and your pet’s comfort and well-being will always remain my top priority. If your dog is friendly with other dogs and my dog is welcome to accompany me during overnight stays, I can be around your pets even more.
About: I've been taking care of pups in my free time for four years now, I used to work in a bar and meeting the dogs who come in with their humans created my love for it. Now that I am no longer in the bar industry, I am petsitting full time! Petsitting is my primary job. Getting to love on your animals like they are my own is one of the most rewarding feelings in the world and I'm so happy I get to do this for a living. I would be staying in your home with your dogs/cats making sure they get all their meals, meds, potty breaks and playtime they would need!
“Shaelyn has great communication and made sure we had photos and updates everyday. She loved on our babies and we really appreciated her willingness to listen to us and the needs, keeping their routine as normal as possible. It’s hard to leave them, especially with a puppy, and she kept them happy and safe! She’s now a part of our pack!”
“Lyla did a great job getting to know our timid pup in the short time she was here. Our dog was happy when we got home and the house was in good order. Lyla also has been very prompt and helpful in all of her communications with us, during booking and throughout her stay. We’ll definitely rebook with her!”
“Chardonay was fantastic and our dog Harley absolutely loved them! We already set up another sit, so we highly recommend working with her. Harley has some specifically reactivity needs, and we felt at ease with Chardonay watching her. She kept us updated and sent lots of dog pics throughout the sit too.”
“What A Star Dog Sitter! Attentive to Dogs needs, Communication was over the top. If you are looking for someone that understands and loves Dogs like Vanessa. She is your Person.”
“Heidi was awesome with our kitty cat Stitch! Daily updates and pictures, super loving to our boy and left everything spotless at the house. Stitch seemed so happy and relaxed upon our return which was such a pleasant surprise since he tends to get stressed when we travel. Highly recommend and will definitely hope to book with Heidi again in the future.”
“Eva was fantastic! She was able to help me out on very short notice for the Thanksgiving break. She was in constant communication with me the entire time and showed pictures of the pups hanging out with her at the house. She was house sitting as well and kept the house super clean for me to come back to. I will rebook again any time I need someone to care for my pups 👌🏼”
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, birds, and invertebrates. I’ve also worked at a pet store for the last year and a half so I have some knowledge on freshwater fish as well as experience administering medications to animals. I’m currently only working part time, about 12-18 hours a week, so I have more than enough time to check on and play with your pets! I’m super flexible and want to do anything I can to make sure your pets are as comfortable and happy as they possibly can be while their humans aren’t home!
“Aeryn took incredible care of our dogs while house sitting. She was attentive, reliable, and genuinely connected with them. We came home to happy, relaxed pups and a tidy house. Her communication was consistent and reassuring throughout the stay. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, high‑quality care.”
“Jenny stayed with our dog Oliver and cat Ringo over Memorial Day weekend. We had met with her a couple weeks earlier just to get to know her and were instantly impressed. She is very personable and was immediately at ease with our dog Oliver which we loved. We had a great conversation and talked about some of the difficult things with our pets and she didn’t have any issues. Jenny has a little more life under her belt (unlike some of our past Pet sitter’s) so we felt very comfortable leaving her at the house, able to handle unforecast things that might come up. I’m not saying she’s old, ha ha. Just saying it’s nice to have someone a little more mature watching our house and pets. Jenny was very communicative when we were on our trip. We got photos and videos daily and updates on how they were doing. My dog didn’t even look like he was missing us.She took him for daily walks and watered some of our outdoor plants as it was warm. When we returned, the house looked better than when we left it. Thank you so much for that! We will definitely use Jenny in the future. I’m actually hesitant to write this review because I don’t want her to get more popular than she already is! Good pet/house sitters are so hard to come by. Thank you again Jenny, Eric and Julie”
“Kaitlyn put my mind at ease while I was out for the day! I will definitely hire her again. I especially love that she sent me update pictures of the pups! We’ll see you next time, Kaitlyn! 🐶🐾🖤”
“Chloe did a wonderful job - not only were the animals happy and well cared for, but she also made cookies and left everything clean and tidy! We will DEFINITELY call on her again!”
“Abra did a wonderful job taking care of our pets. We have a large doodle, a cat and fish aquarium. Abra gave them all excellent care and provided frequent updates and adorable pictures. She was very attentive to all of the pets. She played with the cat, she walked the dog and played fetch with him. Our time away was more relaxing knowing that we had a dependable and caring person looking after our animals. We will be using Abra's help again next time that we travel.”
“5 stars isn't enough. Shelley was amazing for a 2 night housesit with Bruce Willis. He was thrilled to see her again and she left my place spotless. Definitely recommend for your fur babies.”
“Marie's preparation for staying at our house and caring for our dog was very thorough. I really appreciated her thoughtful approach to caring for our dog and was thrilled to see how happy he was in photos and videos throughout our time away. Marie left our house spotless and took great care of everything!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life—countless cats, three dogs, two parakeets, fish, and two ferrets. I worked for PetSmart for a year, caring for their animals, and have experience with sick pets. I volunteered at my local Humane Society for a while as a dog walker, and I owner-trained my current dog, a retired/at-home service dog. I’m currently free the majority of the day and at night. As long as I have enough time to take care of my own pup at home, I can arrange my schedule around taking care of your pets, too! I’m a big fan of maintaining routine for pets whose people are out of town. I like to follow a schedule for feedings and walks and to maintain a training routine if that’s part of your life!
“Mary house sat for us and took care of our two pitbulls while we were on vacation! The house was in great condition when we got home and she sent photos of the dogs while we were away. I would book with her again!”
“There is a reason Peter has so many amazing reviews! We have pups that come from abusive pasts and take a while to warm up to anyone. As soon as Peter arrived for the meet and greet both of my dogs were relaxed around Peter and even came to him for pets and attention. Peter has a very calm energy and is very skilled and patient at knowing how to give dogs the space they need to make them feel safe. We needed a sitter for a two and half week trip to Europe and we had so much peace of mind knowing that Peter was there for our sweet pups! With the daily updates and photos it was so nice to see our pups snuggling and bonding with Peter and we will definitely be booking with him for our next trip! Thank you, Peter! You are appreciated more than you could imagine!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hazel Dell
We booked Rachelle while we were out of town for three weeks to stay in our home and take care of our pets on the weekends. The first weekend she had our dog and two cats, and the second two weekends she just had the cats. We had a neighbor looking in on the cats during the week and our dog went to her regular sitter after the first weekend. Rachelle was very reliable and took super care of the house and the pets. This was the longest trip we had taken away from them and were so happy we could depend on Rachelle and so appreciative she gave our pets great care. She sent photos and updates and let us know how things were going. She kept our furry ones happy and our house was well taken care of - she even kept my plants alive! Rachelle did a great job for us and I will most definitely use her again. 🐈⬛🐈🐶⭐️
Venessa was wonderful! She walked our pup twice a day, played with her, was attentive to her needs, and sent lots of photos. She was responsive and always kept us in the loop. She even kept our house clean and cared for. Her warm disposition helped us and our pup feel at ease. We couldn’t be happier with her & will use her again!
Peyton per usual is just the absolute best! I have all the confidence that my dogs are well taken care of when he stays with them. It warms my heart to see them get so excited to see him arrive! Makes it much easier to leave. I always come home to happy dogs and a clean home!
Melanie is communicative, responsible, flexible and a fantastic house/dog sitter. We had a flight delay and she stayed a few extra hours which she didn't have to do - we so appreciate it! We got photos of our two pups up in her grill and looking loved on and happy. We definitely want to have her sit for us again.
He did a great job taking care of Oliver while we were away for the week. He sent daily updates and photos, which we really appreciated, and it was clear that Oliver was well taken care of. He was also respectful of our home and left everything very clean. He even washed the sheets and towels he used, which was a nice touch. Overall, we had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend him as a dog sitter!
We feel so confident with Victoria taking care of our fur babies. Vicki sends cute pics and helpful updates to keep our minds at ease. She makes sure our senior Dane girl gets her daily walks and meds. She gives our clingy female cat all the love she desires. She’s even charmed our anxious male cat into coming out for photos and rubs. 10/10 recommendations for Victoria.

The average cost of House Sitting in Hazel Dell is $86 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $139 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 Hazel Dell 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 Hazel Dell 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 Hazel Dell 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.
