About: I grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was simply part of everyday life. From livestock and horses to dogs, cats, birds, and small animals, I learned early that every animal has its own personality and needs. Today, I also share my home with exotic pets (ferrets) which has given me experience with specialized care, enrichment, and close attention to health and behavior. Whether your pet is young, energetic, shy, or enjoys a slower pace, I provide patient, attentive care tailored to their routine. I'll follow your instructions carefully, treat your pet like family, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a self-employed business owner, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care rather than trying to fit them in between other commitments. That flexibility means I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, maintain your pet's normal routine, and provide reliable, consistent care. Whether it's a walk, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll make sure they receive the attention they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special preferences or restrictions. I understand that staying in a familiar environment helps many pets feel more relaxed while you're away, so I strive to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensure doors and gates remain secure, use leashes and harnesses as directed, and always keep a close eye on your pet's well-being. You'll receive regular photo and text updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive, dependable care.
“Vanessa did a great job caring for our cat, Twitch! She accepted our booking on very short notice after another sitter cancelled. She came twice daily to feed, play, and give insulin injections to Twitch. It was obvious that he enjoyed her visits and was in good hands. Vanessa brought our mail in and took the garbage can to the curb for us, as well. Your animals will be in great hands with Vanessa!!”

“New to the area and first time Rover user and had been anxious about leaving my dogs for an extended number of days. Nicole was very good and with our dogs and our cats. She spent a lot of time with them and gained their trust. I would highly recommend her and will definitely request her services again in the upcoming months.”

“Melissa took excellent care of my babies. I enjoyed my weekend trip worry-free with her looking after them. She wrote great reports for each visit and took lots of pictures for me. I would book with her again! Thanks!”

“She’s fantastic! Couldn’t ask for more! My dog loves her and that alone was imperative for us since our dog nanny is literally playing ‘nanny’ and helping our bitch nurse 11 puppies. The job at hand was highly specific and tailored to our need. Barb has been on time and highly conscientious of all the specific requests we had in order to follow the same flow of what was already set in place. There is a high level of chaos at this house and Barb brings calmness to the environment with the added ability to assimilate to the environment and mesh well with our unique family dynamic. Barb is considerate, insightful, intelligent and educated. We are blessed to have Barb as our dog nanny.”


“Mikayla took excellent care of our two Aussies! She communicated with us exceptionally and sent us loads of pictures! Our dogs were well taken care of and we would highly recommend Mikayla!”

About: I’ve cared and watched dogs and cats for several years, including drop-in services, house sitting and boarding. I have also owned cats and dogs almost my entire life and love spending time around them. I work full time, but have summers and holidays off and free every weekend. During summers and weekends I can do several drop ins as well as sit for several days in a row. I have a large fenced back yard where dogs can run, I don’t currently have any pets of my own so the dog or cat will get 100% of the attention. If watching at your home, being respectful of the home, cleaning up after the pet and myself if any messes, leaving the home just as when I first entered.
About: Please don’t allow my reduced star rating to deter you from booking with me! I unfortunately took on a couple jobs that I shouldn’t have with dogs with behavior issues and the owners ended up blaming me although I provided the best care possible. :( I am now more diligent in asking the necessary questions before accepting a job. I do this because I love animals and also to earn very much needed extra income for my family of 8. I have had pets all my life including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters, frogs, and turtles. I also grew up in a small farm town for a good part of my childhood and was around a lot of farm animals. I currently have 1 dog of my own who is friendly and playful, as well as kids who can help keep your fur babies active and having fun. We live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can work with your needs. I have mostly open availability on the weekends and also for boarding or overnight care. I have a yard with room to run, although it isn’t fenced, we do have an outdoor kennel area and a dog run line. I’m also able to crate pets inside if needed. I can also take dogs for walks around our quiet, private neighborhood, or to the dog park for more room to run.
“Juanita is great at what she does! She sends pics while while she has your lil one and gives you a detailed message about her Drop ins!!!! Definitely recommend her for all your fur babies needs 🐾🐾🐕”

“I was very impressed with Charli's communication through Rover and on photos she sent. It was nice to get the updates and I could see her at my house on her checkin visits. I also have a cat who takes meds and can be a butt when given them, but she tried her best and went with it even when he was difficult. I will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Jessica will be checking in on my pets while I’m on vacation. We’ve setup a few visits prior to let them get to know one another. My little Aussie-Poo can be a bit timid with new people, but Jessica has been very good with gaining his trust. Jessica has been very accommodating with scheduling. I’m very happy with her watching my fur babies.”

About: I have been pet sitting since the age of 13. I have the patience with puppies & most definitely go above and beyond to care for every pet. Full time SAHM! Own no pups of my own, & I have a 3 year old son who adores pups! Perfect fit for pups who do not get along w other animals! I have a small fenced yard, to compensate for this I usually take pups out to a dog park/ walks to get their energy out. I follow closely to any instructions given for pet care.
“Stephanie is great! She stopped over to meet my puppy prior to the visit and d was super friendly, my love liked her right away. She's great at communicating and sending updates on visits with pictures!! Thank you for your time and attention.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kennewick
Michelle took amazing care of my cat and chinchilla, and my plants (!) while I was out of town for a week. She went above and beyond, including playing with my cat, keeping my garden alive, sweeping the floors, and sending detailed updates. She also takes amazing pet photos, which were a comfort when I was missing my animals.

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.

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.
