“Daisy has been taking care of our cat Hissy for a couple of years now and I can't recommend her enough! She is so great to communicate with and is great with Hissy and all the instructions that Hissy requires. I can't recommend Daisy enough!”
“We are so grateful that we chose India to care for our dog for 5 days. She was super friendly, dependable, showed up on time, every time, and loved on her well! We confidently recommend her and would hire her again!”
“She was absolutely amazing, my partner and I greatly appreciate how easy it was to contact her, how quickly she got back to us, and how attentive she was to our dog with many photos sent to us (which there is never a maximum for and we always love). Would recommend her to anyone who's considering her to look after their animals.”

“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.”

Until recently, I have always had a dog to take care of in my life, and now I'd love to look after yours! :) Helping dogs exercise, making sure they are loved, clean and happy are very important to me. Dogs put so much good into this world, so they deserve all the love we can possibly give them! Also I love cats! Waking up and making sure your furry friend is fed, given morning pets, and a walk if needed. We can play and have fun during the day and make sure we get to bed at a good time. Keeping on careful eye on your pet is very important to me! Also I genuinely enjoy the company of animals so there will be lots of hanging out, playing & potty breaks.

About: I have taken care of my own animals my whole life, as well as professionally as a career for some time.

I have experience with some farm animals, reptiles, birds, bugs, arachnids, and small animals like hamsters, mice, rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I work a 9-5 Tuesday-Saturday, some days my schedule changes. The pet care I could provide would best fit for overnight stays, and pets that are used to being alone throughout the day. I can provide walks and drop-ins anytime outside of those working hours. Communication is incredibly important to me as a sitter, and making sure your pet is comfortable while making sure you feel they’re safe is my main goal. I send daily updates along with photos to ensure you know exactly how your pet is cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kennewick
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kennewick is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 311 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kennewick. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Kennewick. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
