“We were concerned about leaving our 16 year old kitty for a 2 week vacation. We didn’t need to be - Shana was wonderful for him! She took extra care for him, sat and snuggled with him in addition to taking care of his med, snack, food, water and litter! She sent the sweetest pictures each day - putting our minds at ease! Would definitely recommend her! Amazing!”
“She took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She was very kind, attentive, and clearly experienced with cats. I really appreciated the updates and photos she shared, which gave me great peace of mind during my trip. My cat looked relaxed and well cared for when I got back. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!”
“Rebekah did a great job taking care of our two cats. I could tell from the photos that she spent time playing with them and giving them love, and she was communicative and proactive both before and after the engagement. We will definitely be working with her again.”
“Ni was wonderful! Super responsive and sent lots of pics and videos. Our cat was shy but Ni tried her best to get her out of hiding with cat videos. We would 100% hire Ni again!”
“Laura was amazing taking care of my baby cat. She visited my cat everyday for a week, she gave her food, pet her, brushed her, played with her. She also sent me pictures of my cat, and kept me updated everyday. My baby cat was happy when we came back home. I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely use her services again. Thanks Laura.”
“Another great pet sitting experience! I will continue to book with Logan as long as she is available. She sends the cutest pictures and detailed report cards.”
About: I have two adorable cats chestnut and walnut. And I have another dog Oreo. They are all friendly and nice. I would love to enjoy the time with your pets. I am not available Monday, Thursday and Friday. But other days I am pretty free. Also feel free to reach to check if I am available or not even at the last minute! I will say my apartment can only stay for one more small pet, since there are two cats already. But I am flexible to chat.
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! 🐾 Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always multiple pets around—including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish—so I’ve been comfortable caring for animals for as long as I can remember. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’ve continued to care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets when they’ve been away. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, including senior dogs and cats and pets who are partially deaf or blind. I especially enjoy getting to know an animal’s individual personality and figuring out what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. My goal is to make the experience as easy and stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet! I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means a long walk, plenty of playtime, a quiet afternoon nap, medication or extra assistance for a senior pet, or simply some good company. I’m particularly comfortable with senior pets and pets with hearing or vision limitations. I understand that these animals may need a little more patience, consistency, and awareness of their surroundings. I’m also happy to care for young, energetic pets and reinforce the routines and positive-training approaches you already use at home. Most importantly, I treat every animal as an individual. Some pets want constant attention and play; others are happiest curled up nearby. I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the kind of care and companionship that makes them feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away with photos and little check-ins, because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happily settling in. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pet and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I am an independent consultant, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to plan my days around pet care. I’m able to accommodate a variety of schedules and can often provide daytime visits, walks, and check-ins when your pet needs them most. Because I set my own schedule, I can be flexible and responsive to your pet’s routine rather than trying to fit them into a rigid workday. I’ll always do my best to work with your schedule and your pet’s individual needs. I know that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved pet is a big deal. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being always come first. I carefully follow your instructions, routines, feeding schedules, medication directions, and any special needs your pet may have. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings, and I take extra care with senior pets or animals who may have hearing or vision limitations. I’ll also keep you informed while you’re away with updates and photos, and I’ll let you know promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet. You can expect me to be dependable, respectful of your home and privacy, and genuinely caring with your pets. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing that your pet is safe, cared for, and in good hands while you’re away.
“Xinyu was extremely friendly, thoughtful, and took outstanding care of our three cats while we were away for a week. It is so nice to have someone who is so familiar with cat care looking after your cats. We received daily updates with cute pictures that brought us so much joy. Thank you, Xinyu!”
“This was the first time I have used Rover or anything similar, and also my first cat. Victoriia was so accommodating, especially considering I initially contacted her the night before. She was very friendly and easy to communicate with. I felt very comfortable leaving my pet in her care, and would definitely do so again if the need arise. She even sent my cat home with a new toy!”
“Cortney was fantastic! She did an amazing job checking in on my kitties while I was away, even managing to break them of their shyness and made them comfortable. She is definitely the cat whisperer and you can 100% count on her to take care of your pets. She kept us well informed and took the cutest pictures. Will definitely contact her again, and recommend to friends in the area.”
“Shayna is AMAZING with our Great Dane and two cats! Our dog is almost double the size of her and she handles him with such great care! Would highly recommend her services!”
“Eric is a great person and one of the best pet sitters I’ve ever had. My dog and cats loved him. He is very gentle & caring. My pets warmed up to him very quickly. He did a wonderful job caring for my senior dog and young cats. I went on a business trip for several days and was concerned about leaving my senior dog at home with the cats but Eric did a wonderful job. So I came back to a happy, wagging tale. Eric was on time for the visits, took the time to play with the cats, give them love and attention, and sent me detailed notes with lots of pictures. He even reported on how they were eating their food! I’m so glad I found Eric and I can trust him with my pets whenever I need!”
About: I grew up with a nana who raised litters of puppies, along with showing her own dogs. I know how to aid in dog birth, and I'm also familiar with training puppies. I've dog sat/house sat on multiple occasions, and I also have a black lab of my own who is now thirteen. I currently work full time as a recovery specialist M-Th from 7am-5:30pm. I'm totally open to checking in on your pet after I get out of work. Fri-Sun are days where I could potentially come over multiple times a day to help out :) I would definitely prefer to come to the client home to help with your pet. I’m also willing to transport your animal if that’s needed (going to a dog park, going on a longer nature walk, etc.) The safety of your pet is number one so please let me know any restrictions they may have or any behaviors they may engage in that could endanger them (i.e. they love to go into the backyard and attempt a prison break situation). I highly value your privacy as well and I always take the utmost care to make sure everything is locked up and tidy when I leave a pet sitting job.
“Jessica was just stellar with our cat Aerazele. She gave Aerazele lots of warm attention, and it was obvious how happy Aerazele was. Jessica was very responsive, with great reports and photos and video clips along the way. She was also responsible about keys and such. We definitely recommend her!”
“Fanghua is an amazing pet sitter! She is reliable, caring, and very attentive. She took great care of my pet and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciate her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“We highly recommend Juniper. She has been communicative and doing drop ins on our cat when we are working out of town. We plan to continue using her as our sitter. She sends photos and updates. Our cat is pretty anti social, but Juniper seems to have a way with her.”
“Sophia was just what we needed! We were gone traveling for over three weeks, and our two kitties do not do well in a kennel. Sophia provided overnight care, food, litter box cleaning, and the love our kitties needed, and brought in our mail, etc. She sent pictures along the way of cuddling and playing kittens, and arrived home to happy and well cared for cats and a clean home. Thanks, Sophia, can't wait to have you stay again. <3”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kirkland
Shana is truly amazing! We received super detailed updates and lots of photos for each visit (even though we had two visits a day, for 10 days), and Shana was really attentive to our cats’ needs and dietary preferences. Both cats also received so much love and playtime — after coming home, we can truly tell they had a great time as they are happy and playful cats😻
Xueyan was an amazing pet sitter. She was very friendly, on time, and communicative. She took lots of photos and made sure I was aware of everything along the way. She took excellent care of Lizzee and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend and would definitely hire again.
Candice did a great job taking care of my cat and our house while we were away. Nugget clearly liked her from the second they met at the meet & greet. And I can tell from the photos from her visits that they had a good time together. Candice also took care of all the incoming packages and mail, and took out the trash, which went above and beyond. Thanks Candice!
Fantastic visits from Natalia as always! Really appreciate working with me and my requests, and providing the cutest photos while we are away. It’s wonderful to see my cats so comfortable with her so quickly, that truly is a feat on its own. Also always appreciate the attention to detail and watching out for the cats well-being when noticing changes or different behaviors. Natalia communicates so well, asks the right questions, an overall fantastic sitter!
Christina was wonderful with Tiger! She was very attentive and responsible, replied quickly, and communicated clearly throughout the booking. She sent plenty of photos and updates, so we always knew how he was doing, and Tiger clearly enjoyed his time with her. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely book Christina again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Kirkland is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $41 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.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
