“Our dog loves to hangout with Shana for her drop in visits. Shana is always above and beyond in communication and her friendly and calm energy is great match for our high energy dog!”
“This was our first time with Leelay- and I am so happy we found her! We were so pleased to know that Bear was safe and happy with her during our trip. Even though she is a a very anxious rescue, Leelay was extremely confident with her and had no issues at all. Thank goodness for her kindness and reliability!!!”
“I would definitely recommend Bailey to anyone looking for a sitter to drop in on their cat(s). I hired Bailey to drop in on my cat over a 3ish week timespan. She followed instructions carefully and, more impressively, was able to get my very shy cat to open up to her. For context, my cat is extremely wary of strangers and hides when unfamiliar people are at my house. I was very happy to eventually see pictures of my cat happily cuddling up to Bailey. Bailey also clearly cares about providing excellent care to her clients’ animals.”
“This is the second time Rebekah has taken care of our kitty girls. Rebekah is very reliable and my babies look so happy. She handles Panda’s oral medication so well. Thank you!”
About: I cannot overstate how much I love dogs. Truly. :) I’ve had dogs my whole life, and I recently lost my little guy Jackson at 12 years old. He was my best friend, adventure buddy, and shadow...and while I’m not quite ready for another pup of my own yet, I am so excited to love on yours. ✨ What I’m Like as a Sitter I’m super friendly, clean, reliable, and full of energy. Whether your dog wants long walks, couch hangs, or constant fetch, I’m here for it. I have a very flexible schedule and can do daytime visits, evenings, or overnights depending on what your pup needs. 💛 What You Can Expect Lots of love, attention, and positive energy Clear communication + frequent photo updates (I am pretty good with photos ☺️) A safe, calm, and fun presence for your dog Someone who treats your dog like their own Solid community references (I’ve lived here a while!) 🐶 Why I Do This Honestly, I just love being around dogs. They bring out the best in me. After losing Jackson, I realized how much joy I get from caring for dogs — being outside with them, adventuring, playing, or just hanging out. Rover is a way for me to stay connected to that joy while helping other dog parents out. 🤍 Can’t Wait to Meet Your Pup I’d love to meet you and your dog soon! Let me know what they love, what they need, and how I can make their time with me the best. I have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits in easily. I love getting outside and taking breaks throughout the day, and having a dog with me just makes everything better. I can adjust to whatever routine your pup is used to - mornings, mid-day, or evenings. I follow your dog’s normal routine closely — meals, walks, playtime, and any house rules. I’m clean, respectful, and very communicative, and I’ll send plenty of photo updates. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, and totally at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors and friends have always come to me for caring for their dogs while they are away. I have a part time job currently so I am available for walking or drop in visits during days and/or hours I am not working that job. I am experienced with walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am also very comfortable and trustworthy to go into your home to take care of your dog while you are away.
“Most patient walker ever! Twyla was highly anxious the first walk she did. Sterling was so incredibly patient with her and gave me pointers on how to make her next walk more successful. Her second walk was much better. So thrilled they stuck with us.”
“Patricia was amazing! I needed help with cat sitting with short notice, and Patricia was responsive, consistent, and professional from the first moment. I appreciated the daily updates, my cats were clearly comfortable and happy with her, and I arrived home to happy cats and a clean home. I could not have asked for more.”
“Allie was able to come watch my girls on short notice and did such a great job. My girls loved her immediately and she was really thorough with doing everything I had requested. Will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Hailey looked after our two cats while we were gone for 10 days. She was great, both during the meet up before we left and during the time we were away. On time, caring and very responsive. We are glad we have found someone reliable to take care of our furry family members while we are away.”
“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.”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals around my neighborhood and have had rescue dogs of my own. I love animals and will make yours feel right at home! My schedule is very flexible! I am available most weekdays and can take care of your pet any time on weekends! Let me know what’s best for you:) I have a rescue dog of my own who is on the mellow side so she will most likely watch but not interact. I have a yard however it is not fenced, but I will use a gate to keep your dog in the yard.
“Alejandro was wonderful with Tiago! Alejandro is super responsible and took lots of adorable pictures of Tiago during his drop ins. Tiago was immediately comfortable with him and loves having his daily visits from his new best bud.”
“Ni took great care of my cat! She is always on time very nice and gentle with my cat, and also playing with her a lot. So many lovely pictures and videos taken and sent to us, really appreciate everything!”
“Caroline looked after our cat for a week while we were out of town by dropping in to feed him and play with him in the evenings. She was very kind, communicative, professional, and made us feel great knowing that our little guy was well taken care of. I would definitely book her again in the future!”
“My cats were very content when I got home. I could tell they had a good time with Edie and she took wonderful care of them. I appreciated the updates and pictures with each visit. I've already booked her for 2 more dates!”
“Jessica is so sweet and caring and pays attention to detail. I trust her with my fur baby and in my house. She’s very communicative and professional. I can go on vacation worry free and know my pup is in good hands.”
About: I am passionate about the safety, happiness, and health of all animals. I have a dog of my own who is my entire world, and I have 10+ years of experience caring for friends and family pets. I grew up in Kirkland and love walking the areas many walking trails and routes. I would love to provide your pet with exercise and companionship. I live in downtown Kirkland and am able to do quick walks or check ins easily. I work as a teacher so afternoons are open for me, and summers I am available all the time! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work hard to create a calm, secure, and predictable environment—whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits. In your home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s usual routine so things feel familiar and stress-free. I’m careful with doors, gates, and leashes at all times, and I stay aware of surroundings on walks to keep your pet safe—especially around other dogs, traffic, and busy areas. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and any triggers ahead of time (like reactivity on walks), so I can handle situations confidently and avoid unnecessary stress. You can also expect clear communication from me, with regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is safe, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away.

Dahra is awesome, she communicated everything and took plenty of pictures. We even had some problems with our automatic feeder and she reassured us that out kitty did get some food by sending us photos and keeping us updated on the feeder and weather it was operational again.
Jessilea does a great job with our cat when we're on vacation. She's thorough with all the chores, helps with things like bringing packages in, and she and her daughter do a great job playing with our cat. Our kitty is happy to know that she gets to play with Jess and her daughter whenever the luggage comes out for a trip.
Teresa watched my two cats for two weeks while I was out of the country and was wonderful. She actually spent time with them rather than just doing food-and-litter visits, and sent so many photos throughout. It made being that far from home much easier. She's incredibly easy to work with and went out of her way to water my plants and bring in my mail, even though neither was part of the service. Highly recommend. I'll absolutely book her again.
This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Ning took such wonderful care of our cats while we were away. She is very attentive, thoughtful, and kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind. Our cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We also really appreciated that she helped water our plants, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. We highly recommend Ning to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our cats and home!
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.
