“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!”
About: I’ve been a trusted pet-sitter since I was 11. I have experience volunteering at TROT with my high school’s National Honor Society. As a valedictorian, I am responsible and trustworthy to handle your pets with the utmost love and care! I recently graduated from high school and have no restrictive schedule thanks to summer break! I’m available Wednesday-Sunday at any hours, while Monday-Tuesday I am available from 8am-2pm, and 5pm-10pm! I am able to drive myself anywhere in the Tri-Cities to care for your animals at home. I have a fenced yard and two kitties who love playtime, but can be put away in a room if needed!
About: I've pet and house sat for friends and family since I was 15 and have experience with every size and age of dog and cat. I have experience with giving animals any special medication or any other needs that they may require. ☺️ I only have one class at school per week so I am pretty available for any schedule that your pet may need. I am happy to work with your pets needs in any way! My previous clients usually needed me for house sitting as well as pet sitting so I have no problem staying over night or just dropping in on your pets throughout the day. I am very keen on following your pets schedule! Routine is key!
About: I have helped with cats since I was young, my siblings and I used to tame the cats at my grandmas house. My parents dog is 10 and I did all her training, just the basics, we got her when I was 10 but I took her for walks, got her to walk on a leash without pulling me. Currently I have a 3 almost 4 year old dog who is my best friend, I have trained him with more tricks, shake, lay down, etc. I work part time, and have Fridays and Saturdays officially off. My schedule is very open for caring for others pets, my availability is more in the morning or lat in the evening. I can travel to you to care for your pet, I am willing to walk them or give them any in home care they may need.
About: I stand out by providing personalized, attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I have experience working with both energetic puppies and senior dogs, including basic training for young pets and gentle, patient support for older dogs who may need a slower pace or extra care. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love building trust with every dog I walk or sit, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around walks, feeding times, and check-ins to make sure each dog gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening check-ins, I stay flexible and organized so pets feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment whether pets are in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while also keeping their space clean and respected. In my home, I create a cozy, supervised setting with lots of affection, regular potty breaks, and structured routines. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that means extra playtime for energetic dogs or a slower, gentle approach for seniors.
“Ysobel did a great job checking in our elderly cat over the long weekend. She took extra care with him, making sure his food and water were refilled and his litter box and bed were tidy. I highly recommend her!”
“Hayden was a godsend to us while we were gone. We had just lost the younger of our two pups before her first visit so it was doubly important that Max be given all the love and care possible. She provided that, allowing us to continue through our trip away from home. The updates and photos were especially helpful.”
“They did a great job looking after our 2 cats! We were gone for 3 weeks and they went above and beyond with updates and ensuring they were well taken care of. We also came home to a clean apartment which is so nice after a long vacation.”
About: I have previous vet clinic experience! I am knowledgeable in give animals of any kind medications as needed and I am comfortable administering emergency meds when need. I’m currently going to WWU to get my biology degree. So while my schedule is pretty open I do have at least one class I need to be at every week day. I’m open to talking more about my availability when you send in a request. I have done a lot of pet sitting in clients homes previous to getting on rover. I have worked with many different security systems in other peoples home that I am comfortable with what ever the owner has as long as they are comfortable with it and trust it.
“David has been amazing with my little geriatric River. I was terrified to leave him for five weeks but David jumped right in and played with him, walked him, gave him his medicine and food. All the pictures showed River having fun playing with his toys and going for walks. I’m soo thankful and grateful for his loving care of my beloved. I will use him again and highly recommend him.”
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.
“Debbie is very friendly, easy to work with, and went beyond my expectations in the amount of time she spent with our male Scottie during a multi-drop-in day. I asked her to do many things before she left our house for the night and all were completed—i.e. turn on porch lights, TV, etc. I will definitely contact her again when I need caring help with my little pooch.”
About: I grew up with a St. Bernard and two papillons - so saying I understand both big and small dogs is an understatement. I do have to agree the small ones can have the biggest attitudes, however. Love dogs and love spending time with them! I work serving night shifts so I am available most days! And only gone at night for about 5 hours. Can stay at house or just do drop ins. I used to babysit so I am comfortable taking care of homes while watching over others. I will keep everything tidy and make sure everyone is taken care of!
“We have 3 dogs and 2 cats and we’ve chosen Raeanna twice now to take care of our pets and she does a great job! We appreciate the peace of mind that comes with knowing they are being well cared for. We come back to happy and healthy critters.”
“Shannon did such an amazing job at caring for Hissy and Jimmy while we were gone. I loved all the pictures and the report cards that she wrote. I couldn't recommend her enough!”
“Great experience! Love all the live updates and images of the drop in visits. Appreciate Stephanie’s communication and flexibility with our schedule. Definitely will continue to use her as needed! Very positive overall experience with Rover being a first time user.”
About: Dogs really are man's(and women's) best friend and we must treat them the way they deserve! I'm able to provide the care and love the same as a pet parent would except they're not really mine! I've actually never owned a dog but have definitely been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. My availability is pretty open since I'm a stay at home mother with a 6yo son. He can also provide love towards anyone's dog! Which is sweet because children and dogs practically go hand in hand. I will be able to provide comfort, treats, and other necessities for your fluffy companion. This may sound silly, but dog fever is a real thing and I would love to be able to provide services for those in need! That way my dog fever is taken care of and you need not worry about your pet being taken care of!
About: I’ve only been doing this for three years but I do have experience with puppies (both calm and hyperactive) and senior dogs who require medications. I also am fine with pitbulls. I have a job that is typically 6 hrs long. I will get assigned double shifts which is 11 hours on Sundays. I also am available to do other kinds of pet sitting like aquatic and reptilian if needed. For my clients I usually play and sit with them depending on if they feel playful. I walk them once a day but if you’d like me to take them out multiple times a day that’s great too! I pick up poop everyday or every other day. I also have aquatic pets (I know this service is for dogs but I thought I’d throw that in there) so if you need feedings, cleanings, or water changes I can do that too!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kennewick
I had a great experience with Courtney! I have a 9-week-old puppy, so I was naturally nervous about leaving him, but she did an amazing job. She was patient, caring, and made sure he was well taken care of during her visit. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I really appreciated her reliability and the care she showed for my puppy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet!
We have been incredibly lucky to have such an amazing dog sitter! Daisy has cared for our pups for over a year and she is consistently reliable—always on time, and often even early—which gives me total peace of mind. More importantly, she is so attentive and genuinely caring with my pups. They absolutely adore her, and it’s clear she treats them like her own. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but she exceeds expectations every single time. I can’t recommend her enough!
Cesilia was great with Loki & Raider! When Cesilia came by for the meet & greet, the dogs seemed to like her right away. Loki enjoyed some playtime with his new stuffy during the drop ins. Raider is always shy around new people, but I think she will warm up to Cesilia with a few more drop ins and upcoming housesitting.
I love how Sierra takes great care of my babies when we're gone. I never have to worry about them when we're on vacation. She also follows all of my requests and she goes the extra mile by playing with them and loving on them. I know they are very excited to see her and that helps them not miss us. I highly recommend Sierra for all your pet needs. I will definitely use her again.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kennewick 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.
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 Kennewick 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Kennewick with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
