About: I have been caring for animals for most of my life. We had 2 Doberman when I was a baby which led to me always having a dog or cat in my life. I'd love to meet yours! I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I am available for short, elderly walks to long, youthful puppy runs. Ready to talk, feel free to shoot a message over to talk about your needs for your animals :D I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I like to ensure your pet has a clean, safe environment. All hazards will be picked up promptly, as well as any potty spotted in the yard or accidents in the house.
“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”
“Keri was a fantastic caretaker for my two dogs. She followed the care instructions, took them on a daily walk, and administered medication 2x daily. A highlight was all the photos she sent of my dogs happy, relaxed, and cared for. Keri also left our home in clean condition. I would definitely have her take care of the dogs again!”
“Anna was amazing! Communication thought and care to my pups top tier. She is an animal lover. She is also incredibly respectful and clean. I appreciate someone who communicates regularly and promptly and this is definitely her mode! Thanks Anna for treating my pups like your own.”
“Bryan was awesome! He took really good care of our dog Bella. This was our first experience with hiring a dog sitter and it exceded our expectations. Bryan was very pacient, observant and kind with Bella. Bryan would give us updates throughout the day which was great. Definetly recommend Bryan he wont dissapoint!”
“After my previous dog sitter left for college, I decided to give Rover a try for our summer vacations. After reading Winnie’s profile, I instantly felt like she was the perfect fit for our needs and after meeting her in person, I felt confident that my dogs and my home would be safe and well-cared for. I was not disappointed!! Winnie exceeded my expectations and took phenomenal care of my pups and my home. The communication was easy and consistent throughout the entire process. We experienced travel delays and Winnie was flexible and willing to adjust her schedule to accommodate our needs. We came home to happy, healthy pups and a spotless house. I get so nervous and stressed out anytime we are leaving our pups for any period of time and Winnie gave me the peace-of-mind I needed to truly enjoy my time away. We will 100% request her services for our future needs!”
About: I am available most afternoons and evenings to swing by and play with your pet! I have grown up my whole life with small and big dogs and love playing with dogs. I have experience walking, playing, picking up poop, feeding and give dogs pills. I am familiar and comfortable with most all dog breeds. I am very attentive and caring to dogs and their physical and emotional needs for exercise and play. Playing with dogs is a special treat to me that I miss dearly and I will cherish any opportunity I get to watch your dog as therapy for me and your dog both! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have! I am able to respond quickly.
“Quessandra did an amazing job with Bella. I reached out to her super late at night and last minute and she came through in a pinch. She also sent lots of pics which eased my mind. I will be using her again and again to keep Bella company.”
About: I have taken care of pets for the last ten years plus. We have had birds, mice, snakes, dogs, cats. I love them all. Any care you need, let me know. I take care of house plants and any other small chores you need while you are gone. I am currently recovering from a soccer injury and I am available 24/7. I start college back in September and then will be able to just do weekends but now I am free for you. I love pets, I will double check all issues and make sure they are cared for and loved.Food, sleep, walks, you got it all. Sensitive and anxious dogs are welcome.
About: I grew up on a farm and helped take care of a variety of animals. I've seen a lot and know how to handle an emergency if it comes up. Most of my experience is with dogs, cats and birds. I have cared for: small, medium and large dog breeds including ones labeled as "aggressive" (German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, Dobermans, etc). The cats I have cared for have been house and barn cats and most were American Shorthair. Other animals I have cared for: variety of doves, variety of parrots both small and large (both seed and nectar feeding), helped rehab a crow once, mini horses, llamas, sheep, goats, cows, chickens, peacocks, pheasants, iguana, snakes, rabbits, mice, hamsters, fish, eels, and frogs. Property Maintenance: I love gardens and have helped with basic maintenance tasks and harvesting. I can assist with weeding, watering, etc. I can help harvest flowers for arrangement or drying. I can also help with harvesting produce and process it for long term storage if needed. I use to be a home owner, so I can do basic home maintenance such as changing air filters, yard work, collecting mail, answering calls, etc. I have rented and traveled a fair bit too. I can also do daily cleaning, laundry, etc. Specialty Skills: Some of the dogs and cats I cared for had medication requirements that I needed to attend to and be mindful of. I have limited experience with senior animals but I do have some. Twister lived to be very old for a Jack Russel and experienced seizures later in her life. She lived on for many years still and even survived a broken pelvis from being hit by a car. I helped her rehab during that period of time too. I know how to apply flea/tick medication, and administer pill medication to dogs and cats. The birds I raised did have parasites once. I was able to identify the problem and take them to the vet for treatment. Since a lot of animals I have cared for were outside animals, I also know how to tend wounds and dress them. I have an eye for spotting issues and unusual behavior to quickly get the help the animals needs. Booked for July, August and first week of September. Looking for sits in the Tacoma to Portland region from Sept 9th onwards. Reach out to me today before I fill up! I'm an artist and project manager. I work remotely and currently focused on my art business. I am searching for places of inspiration and maybe fall in love with a town I can one day call my home. I know I want to move, but I'm not sure what's next. This is my chance to explore that. For any animal I'm taking care of I need to know their daily schedule and any rules they need to follow. Any behavior issues or sensitivities or fears would be great to know as well. Knowing this will help me keep your pets on routine, calm and happy.
About: I've been a dog owner since childhood. I have walked and cared for other human's dogs part-time for 10 years. I have the level of patience and concern required to take care of elderly pups and the energy to keep up with rambunctious pups. I have taken care of dogs with behavioral challenges as well as those who require special medical attention. I make walking and taking care of pups a part of my weekly routine. I would be open to a consistent morning or evening schedule during the week, but am most available to accomodate your weekend, out-of-town plans. At this time, I cannot take care of your pup at my residence. I have spent countless nights sitting at clients' homes and feel very comfortable with that arrangement. Also, happy to schedule multiple drop-ins during the day.
“she's is the best sitter we had, trustworthy and dependable! she loved our dog and made our puppy happy 😊 she also saved my husky! our lockbox was stuck and she couldn't get in the house we were out of town and can't get back. so she did her best and got in touch with our neighbors so my dog won't be stuck at home for 48 hours! I still couldn't thank her enough”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 10 years, providing consistent, attentive care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering oral medications, light grooming such as brushing, and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra exercise, gentle care, or simply companionship. I am currently working 5 days a week, and will be available on my days off. I miss dog sitting/dog walking as a hobby and would love to start doing it again. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at my house, so I prefer to take care of the pets at the owners home. I would care for them by playing, taking them outside as needed, staying on a feeding schedule and possibly bathing if the owners request !
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and small pets for over 12 years, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and attention to detail. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a senior pet who needs extra care, or a shy cat that needs space, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. I provide plenty of love, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and regular photo updates, so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care, whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or playtime. I always do my best to work around your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Before each booking, I take the time to learn about your pet’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any special needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and treat your pet like they’re part of my own family. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Alyssa stayed with my needy little poodle mix and also my son’s active golden retriever for a long weekend. Both dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we came on and the house was clean and tidy. I would totally have her come again!”
“Brandon did a great job caring for my Golden Retriever! He sent lots of photos and was very communicative throughout the whole time I was gone. I came home to a tidy house and a happy dog. Will definitely use him again!”

Pazao was fantastic with our trio over the holiday weekend. So glad we found such a caring sitter! She let me know of any questions she had regarding the house or animals, made sure everyone was happy and safe during fireworks and sent me updates regularly to keep my mind at ease. We will definitely be booking again soon!
Jasmine was such a great sitter for Dakota! Always kept me updated on their day with plenty of photos - which I loved. If I were to have forgotten anything, I would have been at peace knowing her home was well stocked with plenty of pet essentials. And she had a great space for Dakota to be comfortable. I would 100% book again!
We had an excellent experience with Ali! She was incredibly attentive and flexible—especially when we added a last-minute dog who needed medication and had an upset stomach. We have four dogs (three elderly with picky diets and one super-hyper attention seeker), and she handled all their unique needs beautifully. She sent regular photo updates, washed their bowls, brought in our packages, and kept everything neat and tidy. The dogs looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for after four days and nights. It was clear they got plenty of love and attention. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
This was my first experience with Hailey, and it won't be the last! She was an excellent pet sitter for my Gracie Girl! She sent daily texts, photos and/or videos and I could see Gracie was being totally spoiled and loved on, so I didn't worry one bit while I was gone. I will definitely ask Hailey to come again the next time I go out of town. She's a gem!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ketron on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,133 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ketron. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Ketron 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 Ketron 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.
Tip: 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 Ketron 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
