“Natalia is awesome! Super caring for our kitties, one of whom can be very challenging. She handled everything with commission and provided very thorough with updates. Highly recommend.”
“Emilia is fantastic! She took excellent care of our kitty while we were away for a few days. She is very reliable, and clearly loves animals - and they love her. :) I will definitely be using her again.”
“Cory continues to take careful and loving care of my puppy Scout, who can be a handful. I come home to a happy and tired puppy in the evenings. Cory does a great job of letting him run and burn off energy!!”
“Kimberly is great! She’s easy to work with and very capable. While there were no issues here, I feel like she could handle anything. I appreciate her timely and good communication style. Thumbs up!”
“They were super polite and considerate of my pets' special needs, got lots of great pictures and detailed reports while we were on our trip and my pets were very well taken care of!”
“Billie did an amazing job caring for our two large Golden Retrievers. They can be a lot to handle, but she was completely confident managing walks, feeding, and keeping them happy and calm. She is very responsible, communicative, and genuinely loves the dogs she cares for. She also shared updates and photos, which really helped us feel comfortable. I would highly recommend Billie to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and capable sitter especially if you have larger or more energetic dogs.”
“I had an amazing experience with Lydia! She was communicative, attentive, and took great care of my cat with genuine care. Regular photos and updates also helped me be stress-free during my time away. Couldn’t be happier with my experience — highly recommend!”
“Did a great job introducing herself to my shy cat and gave him plenty of attention after he quickly warmed up to her! I could tell from the pictures she sent that my cat was loving her company.”
“Zubia took great care of Stitch. He was a bit of a sad boy but she got him to do the things that he needed to do. Stitch and I would have Zubia back anytime. Loved receiving all the cute photos.”
“Cortney helped me out in a pinch and am so grateful for her ability to check on my girl while I was at work and send photos too. Easy to communicate with and updated me with all the information I would want to know. Thank you Courtney!”
“Jessilea left a really detailed report of their visit and tons of photos! We really appreciated it on our first night away from our cats. She and her daughter gave each them appropriate attention for their ages (lots of playtime for the younger one and some light snoozing and cuddles for my senior boy).”
“Leelay is fantastic! Very meticulous, she asked tons of questions before we finalized the booking and spent lots of time with my pets when she visited. Every day she came exactly at the time we agreed and she sent photos each time she visited, keeping close contact the entire time. She’s so kind and thorough, I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Veda is very sweet, responsible, and prompt at responding. She went above and beyond taking care of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving her in her care. Definitely recommend her!”
“Jenna was wonderful with my dog! She let me know how he was doing and sent plenty of pictures. I would absolutely book Jenna again to care of my dog!”

Jacob took wonderful care of Gino! He had a lot of patience with the sweet and scared guy. Jacob was an excellent communicator and reliable. We truly appreciate all your care and help. We had peace of mind knowing he was well looked after. We are very appreciative!
Shannon and Jason are amazing! I had a required work meeting while my dog was having an allergic reaction that required supervision and Benadryl. They picked her up and watched her last minute making sure she was safe and healthy. I would recommend and trust them with Kazi again.
Billie did a fantastic job hanging out with our 15 week old puppy! She made sure she was fed and watered, got a walk in, some play time, and a lot of belly rubs! She sent great photos, which we always enjoy. We will certainly be asking Billie to drop in on our pup again.
So glad we found Edie. Despite an uncertain welcome by my 3 standard poodles (especially the two youngest ones), she won them over and had my spirited 4 year old boy hugging her and other one laying at her feet. She even spent time with my 20 year old kitty who mostly sleeps these days. Edie knows her way around animals and her comfort level was obviously communicated to my four legged children. Thank you, Edie!
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!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kirkland 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 Kirkland 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 .
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 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 Kirkland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kirkland. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
