“Baylee has been so great and willing to spend extra time getting to know Millie, who is a very reactive rescue pup. Baylee is great with her, patient, kind and asks all the right questions to know how to provide Millie good care. We appreciate her and she will be our go to Rover for our pup baby!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, so I have years of experience in providing compassionate, reliable care for pets of all ages and sizes. I take great pride in making sure dogs feel loved and comfortable, whether it’s through daily walks, playtime, or ensuring they follow their regular routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and happy, and I treat every dog like they're my own. If you’re looking for someone who is not only dependable but also genuinely loves dogs, I’d love the opportunity to help with your pet care needs. I'm currently working remote with lots of flexibility in my schedule so have plenty of time to play with your pups! Also If you're planning a get away let me know I'm happy to accommodate your preferred dates/schedule. Very comfortable following your fur baby's regular routine so they feel safe, happy, and keep their preferred schedule/rule guidance for optimal health. Pets sense that I'm an animal lover that initiates trust.
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.
About: I’ve grown up with large dogs my entire life, but I took the initiative to join the pet care industry and honestly found large chain dog care to be lacking. Let’s get our pets outdoors in nature every opportunity possible! I really believe in the Japanese tenet of “forest bathing” for my own health and your furry best friend. I’m currently in the process of opening an aquaponics garden and micro-plant orchard with species ranging from fig, cherry, and pomegranate to lots of vegetables, and thus my availability is quite open this time of the year. I have a fenced yard and our housing situation has been cleaned of any dog stressors or dangers since we got our young pup Anakin about a year and a half ago.
“As always, Garson provided consistent and thoughtful car for our cats. The checking are always informative and assuring that all is well. It is wonderful to know our beloved pets are in good hands.”
About: Hi! I’m an incoming college freshman triple-major and a devoted pet sitter who absolutely adores pets of all sizes and personalities. I treat every pet like my own Ziggy, with lots of patience, engaging playtime, and lots of love. I’ve been babysitting pets since 13. I love all pets and I’ve sat for cats, dogs, caged animals, and fish. I love taking cute photos of your pets (which i’ll send as often as you’d like!) and brushing them. My summer is completely focused on taking care of your pet. I have no jobs or schooling scheduled, and my schedule is completely open to pet sittings all summer! In your home, please walk me through where your pets food is, their favorite hiding spots, their toys, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable regardless of the fact that their family is not home.
About: I've been trusted taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs since I was little and have dog/house sat on occasion in the past as well. I'm looking for employment since moving to Washington, so I currently have plenty of time to take care of and play with your pups! I don't have any dogs of my own right now, so I have plenty of love and attention to give yours - taking them on walks, feeding them, and any other requests you may have!
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Issaquah
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!
Elizabeth was an amazing sitter for our dog, Bailey! She was punctual, responsible, communicative, and very thorough, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated that she went above and beyond on the Fourth of July, spending extra time with Bailey because she's sensitive to fireworks and loud noises. It was clear that Elizabeth genuinely cared about Bailey's comfort and well-being. We would absolutely book with Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!
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.
This is the second time we have hired John. At our first meet and greet our very shy cat Callie soon came up to John for pets. He takes excellent care with lots of interactive play time. He is very responsive to booking and any questions. We highly recommend John!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Issaquah on Rover is $26.64 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 12,424 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Issaquah. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Issaquah stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
