“Kim did a great job looking after Kiwi and Mustache and she even brought our trash in from the curb. You know your cats like the sitter when they greet her at the door. Thank you, Kim!”


About: We are a family of 3 who live in the Gig Harbor/Purdy area. Our home is located on 2.4 acres with open grass areas and a fenced area if your dog prefers to be outside. **Note: fenced area is currently undergoing some summer cleanup so dogs are not left unattended in the yard at this time. We provide a designated doggy sleeping area inside our home which includes a soft doggie bed. We will make sure your pet gets a lot of outdoor time taking walks with us. I also make homemade, healthy doggie treats to spoil them while they are vacationing with us. Your pet will be treated as if he/she was our own pet and will have plenty of playtime and attention. We love dogs and want them to feel at home in our country setting. Also we are not a large kennel, so we only have 2-4 dogs at one time which allows us to give each dog plenty of time and attention and keep things mellow for the dogs and us. We do have our own doggie Willow. She just turned 5 in July. She does well playing with dogs of all sizes. She has made many dog friends through my daycare. *Due to restrictions of our homeowners insurance, certain breeds are not accepted at this time.* I am home all day to watch and play with your pet. I rarely leave but when I sometimes have to leave for short periods, your dog will be very comfortable in our large dog crates with comfortable padded beds. Our family loves dogs and your pet will receive alot of attention and exercise. During the day they can be outside playing in the fenced area (**see above) or just hang out inside with our family, and in the evenings all dogs sleep inside the house with us. We do use crates at night for dogs that are used to that and we provide soft dog bedding in the crates. Dogs that do not prefer crates sleep on dog beds in our bedrooms so they never feel alone.

About: I’ve cared for animals at every stage of life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I also have experience caring for special-needs cats and understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve cared for budgies, cockatiels, and cockatoos, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their care routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and behavior so I can help them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll provide the care they need while treating them like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving every pet the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m available throughout the weekdays/weekends and have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their regular routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I can care for your pet in the comfort of your home or, if you’re comfortable with it, in my home. My yard is fully fenced, providing a secure space for dogs to play and explore safely. I understand how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I’ll provide regular updates with texts, photos, or calls to let you know how your pet is doing. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care to help them feel happy and at ease.

“Wonderfully detailed updates, very thorough and included information I had not even thought about. I felt good about everything the whole time we Winnie was looking after our cats, and would not hesitate to recommend Winnie.”
About: I have lived with animals most of my life. While I currently do not own a pet, I have continued to surround myself with the animals of my friends and family. I started cat-sitting 2 years ago. When I pet sit, I aim to ensure a great experience for my furry friends. I am currently working part-time as an Occupational Therapist (OTR/L) and am flexible in my hours. I am currently a part-time Occupational Therapist, so I have flexibility in my schedule to take care of your furry friend. I have my own transportation as well. I work hard to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your animal in their home environment. A detailed description of your animal's needs is much appreciated.
“Alyssa is amazing! I highly recommend. I just moved to Washington and was panicking about leaving my babies for a few days not knowing anyone. I found her profile on Rover and reached out because she looked like she would be amazing with animals. She sent me the cutest pictures and was so sweet with them! I have one cat who is scared of most people. She let Alyssa love all over her. I love knowing I have someone I trust to take care of my babies while I’m gone. I am so thankful for her!”

I’m able to plan my schedule around walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have over 10 years of experience dog sitting and walking, so I’m comfortable working with different personalities, routines, and care needs.

I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I live in a very walkable neighborhood and enjoy taking dogs on regular walks and getting them plenty of exercise and fresh air. I’m happy to adjust walks and activities based on each dog’s energy level and needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve fostered dogs with the company Animal pad in San Diego, I adopted one of those dogs and I volunteer for the Kitsap humane society. I’m recently out of the Navy and about to start school. Looking for short term income where I can have a flexible schedule on the new journey in my life. I will make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you are away and send plenty of cute pictures so you know they are cared for so you can enjoy your time.
About: BIPOC REQUESTZ ONLY I have loved and spent time with Frend Dogz & Katz from early age. I grew up with a Frend Dog from when they was a puppy until they passed away at sixteen years old. I’ve also loved playing with my friend’s Frend Dogz & Katz. I pay attention to their personality and really try to understand what they may be needing/wanting at that time. I am currently a student taking online classes, so my hours are really flexible. I am also available for house sitting on weekends. Reach out to me for any questions/concerns! I live with my family who has four cats, so I would not be able to dog sit here. However, cat-sitting can be an option. Contact me for more info on this if interested.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Home
Diane was so sweet to our little pack of fur babies. One of our girls is recovering from a pretty intense surgery and we both need to be out of the house for the day. Diane was available on short notice which we really appreciated. She was really gentle and kind with our recovering pup and all the other kids too!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .

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.
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.
