“I felt really comfortable leaving my pets and home with Jackie. My pets get really sad when I leave and I knew they were in good hands the moment they met her. I’m happy to have found a pet sitter like Jackie where my pets can build a relationship with someone for when I travel for work and will be booking again right away!”
“Christina did an amazing job watching our three senior dogs while staying at our house. She sent pictures and videos and was very responsive. We will definitely be using her going forward!”
“Haley was fantastic! She read/followed all of my instructions and was very open with me about other responsibilities. My very spoiled senior seems to have loved her as well. We will definitely recommend Haley and be asking her to watch Sophie again.”
“Wow! 🤩 Noelle is deserving of ONE MILLION stars! She cared for my two senior and special needs dogs like they were her own! Going above and beyond with their special diet, schedule and administering insulin shots. BONUS: it look like housekeeping showed up before I arrived. Already rebooked for future dates 🌟”
“Sara was just wonderful with all Our fur babies! We got updates, photos, and prompt responses from her. Our pack loved their weekend, and we loved being stress free knowing they were home and in good hands!”
“Judith is always excellent, 100% the best!! Our 2 girls Sierra and Kiya love her so much, she cares for them perfectly and sends us updates (with pictures) everyday. Judith also goes above and beyond taking care of our house before checking out, leaving it cleaner than when she checks in. We love having Judith here keeping our dogs company when we're away, she is amazing. Thank you!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She watched our dog Winnie while we went to the Buffalo Bills game, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She came right to our hotel and stayed with him, played with him, took him for a walk, fed him, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the entire time. She even sent us pictures and updates, which gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy the game without worrying about him. It was obvious that Taylor genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like he was her own. We are so grateful we found her and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dependable dog sitter. We will definitely be calling her again whenever we’re in the area!”

About: I have taken care of animals for family and friends for a few years now and want to expanded into caring into looking after the pets if other family’s that want to travel but unfortunately cannot bring their animals with them. I currently work in a restaurant as a line cook and have 5-8 hour days starting as early as 2pm and ending as late as 10pm so I am able to mostly do morning care and late night care but I can adjust my schedule as needed for emergency’s. I am able to adapt to any type of care needed including daily training or cleanup if needed and love to take my own dogs on walks and just relax with them when they are tired.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kenmore
We had such a great experience with Morgan! She took wonderful care of our girl, Shiloh, even taking her for a little ride and treating her to a pup cup 🐾❤️ She went above and beyond by tidying up the house, which was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Shiloh was in such good hands. We truly appreciate the extra care and attention and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter!
Madeline was wonderful. Arrived at our house early to put us at ease before our flight. Very kind to our labs and she seemed to enjoy them by sending funny anticdotes or commentary on their behavior. Our pups are super kind but needy with hugs and attention. She was clearly fine with reciprocating hugs and love. She also cared for our house and plants. We would absolutely use her again and plan to!
A great experience overall with our 2 medium sized dogs (shepherd mix & pit bull) along with our cat for a week while we were on vacation. Left our house very clean when we returned and was proactive with communication & responses while we were away. Our shepherd mix is a rescue and he was very sensitive to her "quirks" Highly recommend Timothy and looking forward to booking again!
Rachel did an excellent job taking care of our dogs and cat. She communicated with us at least once a day updating us on the activities of our pets. She did a great job ensuring our pups were comfortable throughout our trip. We would definitely schedule her again to take care of our pets
Jennifer did a great job taking care of our 2 senior dogs, she followed all my directions and gave my pups extra attention !! This was our first time using rover and and so glad we found a trustworthy person definitely recommend Jennifer for taking care of your animals 😊
Izzy took great care of my boy and the house. She goes above and beyond and really loves animals... You can just tell. I appreciated all the picture updates and made me happy to see that he was being cared for because it's so hard to leave him when we have to go away. I highly recommend Izzy for any of your pet's needs. She's amazing!.
Amanda was wonderful. It was my first time using Rover and she put my mind at ease. She came over, met the dogs before housesitting. The dogs looked really happy in the picture she sent - even my skeptical dog had her tongue hanging out. Already booked Amanda again!
Bri was wonderful with our senior dog. As our dog has gotten older, it has become trickier to find someone we trust to leave her with— anxiety inducing for both us and the dog! But we felt great leaving her with Bri and came home to a very happy pup. Bri was very communicative and gave us lots of updates. We look forward to booking with her again!

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 Kenmore 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 Kenmore 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kenmore 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!

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 .

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.
