“Briana always does such a wonderful job with our high maintenance cats. She is very reliable, responsive, and easy to work with. We will definitely hire her in the future!”
“Prisha took great care of our pup! She was very thoughtful and gave us very detailed updates. We have a senior dog, and Prisha made sure she left a light on for her and was very patient with her on walks.”
“Kathryn was prompt and did a great job watching our cat, keeping the cat’s areas clean and updating us after each visit. Our kitty obviously liked her. She also brought in packages while we were away which was very helpful. I would highly recommend Kathryn!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets both personally and through friends for over 7 years. I’m a dedicated cat mom to two cats of my own, so I understand feline behavior, routines, and how important patience and trust are when caring for cats. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and giving lots of affection (on your cat’s terms!). In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve also provided boarding and in-home care for my friends’ dogs for many years. I have experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic or shy, I always take time to understand their personality and routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I work full-time with flexible hours, so I’m available for drop-in visits after 5 PM on weekdays and have flexible availability on weekends. I’m happy to accommodate evening visits and can be flexible with timing on Saturdays and Sundays based on your pet’s needs. When I visit pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. For each drop-in, I make sure your pet is fed on schedule, has fresh water, and gets plenty of attention and care. I clean litter boxes, refresh food and water bowls. For cats, I move at their pace — giving them space when needed and affection when they want it. I spend time playing, brushing (if they enjoy it), and making sure they feel comfortable and calm. For dogs, I provide potty breaks, short walks (if requested), feeding, and playtime to help keep them happy and relaxed. I always take a few minutes to check each pet’s overall well-being and will let you know if I notice anything unusual. I also send photo updates and messages so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence.
“Lindsay was wonderful with our very particular/anxious/stressed kitty!! She was incredibly patient with her and respected her boundaries and space. She followed all of our instructions for care and was very communicative with us. She left great rover cards and took lots of photos. We knew our cat was in great hands while we were out of the country. Will definitely book with her again! She is reliable and overall a great sitter!”
“Janine did a fantastic job caring for Wally while we were traveling! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and patient throughout the entire process. Wally can be a little cautious and takes time to build trust with new people, and Janine was so understanding and willing to work with him at his own pace. Her patience, kindness, and dedication gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We truly appreciate the care and effort she put into making Wally feel comfortable and safe. Janine is wonderful, and we will absolutely continue using her services. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”
“Mindy dropped in to care for our little pups. They were very flexible in doing a quick meet & greet, communicated great and our pups warmed right up to them! 5/5 - will be booking again!”
“This was my first time using Rover for my new puppy and Elizabeth was amazing. From our meet & greet to the day of the drop-in, she was so kind, highly responsive, and followed my instructions to a T! I look forward to rebooking and highly recommend Elizabeth.”
“Pam did an amazing job taking care of our two elderly dogs! She stopped by right at 6:30am each day and always left detailed visit notes and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and very attentive to their needs. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! Thank you for waking up so early for Summer and Emmi!”
“Samantha communicated well and took great care of our pups. Even the shy one warmed up to her. We would definitely have Samantha watch our furry babies again in the future.”
“Andrew has taken great care of our fur babies on two occasions. We are pretty sure the dogs are disappointed when we walk in the door instead of Andrew. Excellent communication and professionalism.”
About: All my life I have been fond of cats. I have had 7 cats in my life so far and currently my family (me, my wife and teenage son) have 2 cats. I like to say as long as there are cats in this world, there is no reason to be sad. My wife and I often look after our neighbor's cats and now we are expanding to Rover. I offer drop in visits to play with cats, feed them, check water and clean litter. I love dogs and am very comfortable being around dogs, taking them for walks etc. I have lived with dogs for several years when I had roommates and can do dog walks, cleaning litters, feeding them etc. I live in Sammamish and am typically available after 1 pm through evening on all days. I'm easy going and have genuine fondness of cats and dogs. I am well versed with the needs of cats (I have 2) and if I look after your pets, I am easily reachable and will go beyond to over communicate about their well being. Pet safety is priority 1. I have hired Rover pet sitters myself and know what pet parents need, want to know, how to best keep them informed and have good judgment in the area of pet safety.
“Alyssa was a wonderful sitter for my cat John Cougar. She provided timely and entertaining updates about her drop-in visits, complete with detailed information and excellent photos. I felt assured that my little guy was getting excellent attention and care while I was away. I hope I can use Alyssa's services again in the future for my extended travel days.”
About: I'm am an animal entertainer extraordinaire. I am experienced in fostering "difficult" dogs or those considered to have behavioral problems. Animals a big part of my household and the two "super-mutts" that are members of my family are a testament to that. I have been learning the language of dogs for years and truly appreciate these furry friends. I enjoy running and love to sit dogs that can come running a 2-6 mile stretch with me because my doggos have tiny legs usually can't keep up. I'm also familiar with caring for elderly or special needs dogs. I had a dog who had back surgery and I had to rehabilitate him over a period of several months in order for him to be able to walk again. I've also cared for a dog with lymphoma that underwent chemo. Just know that I understand the love and care you want your pet to have and they will be in good hands with me. I'm currently self-employed so my schedule is flexible to accept bookings to exercise or drop on on your furry friends depending on their own needs. I'm very respectful of coming into a dog's home and making sure they feel safe and supported. Whether they're crate trained or have a dog door, I'll adapt to their needs.
“Mark was fabulous with our rambunctious teenage newf and great about keeping in touch with an anxious dog mom. Hagrid was happy to have us home but not upset we had been gone for several days. Thanks Mark!”

Amy is a great pet sitter and a real animal lover :) one of my cats has behavioral issues and one of them is older and Amy gives them patience and lots of playtime. I can tell from the photos of them that the cats are having fun during the visits. She notified me of any behavioral problems (spraying) so I am not surprised when I come home and kept the litter boxes clean including refilling the litter robot. I recommend Amy highly!
Guoyi took the best care of my cat Scarlett. Guoyi was reliable, timely, provided great communication, and sent me frequent updates with pictures of Scarlett. I felt so comfortable leaving my cat because I knew she would be checked on regularly. Guoyi made the experience very smooth and carefree.
Anna was such a gift! She sent us pictures and details of how our cat was doing for a while month while we were traveling. She's very kind and gentle and really cares about animals. Anna followed all our instructions with attention and was always responsive. Highly recommend Anna and will hire her again!
We absolutely love Patricia and always feel completely at ease leaving our kitty in her care. She goes above and beyond every single time, providing not only exceptional care but also so much love and attention. Patricia and her son Leo have built a special bond with our cat, who is usually very shy around other people. Seeing how comfortable and happy he is with them gives us tremendous peace of mind. We truly couldn’t ask for better care and feel incredibly lucky to have found them!
This was my first time using Rover and Briana was very helpful in setting up the booking. She took time to meet my cat ahead of time and it was clear that she really cares about animals. She sent pictures with every visit and communicated with me to set my mind at ease. She really made an effort to build a relationship with my cat which I appreciated.
Junbo took wonderful care of our cat, Nox, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She was very communicative, asked thoughtful questions beforehand to understand Nox’s needs, and adapted her care to Nox’s temperament. We loved receiving the many photo updates, and it was clear she spent quality time playing with her and even hiding treats around for her to find. Junbo also went above and beyond by offering to clean up a mess Nox made while eating and staying beyond. We highly recommend Junbo and would gladly book with her again!
Hilary was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly attentive and took care of my cats exactly according to my instructions. Throughout my trip, she sent me tons of adorable photos of them, which completely put my mind at ease while I was away. Her daily notes were also extremely detailed and thoughtful. I highly recommend Hilary to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Issaquah on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,514 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Issaquah. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Issaquah. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
