“This is the first time we used Shana. She responded on very short notice to take care of our senior cat and we could not have been more pleased with the excellent care she provided to our cat. We will be using Shana in the future and would highly recommend her to care for your pet too.”

“Out of all the cat sitters I have tried (on or off Rover), Leelay stands above all with her genuine love for any cats. I have two cats who each have different views when it comes to a stranger caring for them. Leelay took her time to understand and bond with each of them in a way where I believe my cats forgot about my disappearance. When I came back home, my cats acted like nothing had happened which we all know is probably the best scenario for fidgety cats. Thank you Leelay for all you have done!!”

“Alexa did a fantastic job looking after my two kitties while I was away for a couple of weeks. I highly recommend her for anyone stressed about making sure their cats are taken care of while out of town!”

“Amazing sitter super attentive and took great care of my cat, Merlot, during drop on visits. My cat is typically more shy but seemed to open up immediately to Rebekah.”

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.
“Sterling and Beverly are fantastic! They're both wonderful people and took amazing care of our Brin. We even had an unexpected package of groceries show up which they were kind enough to drop off at a food bank.”
“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!”

“Allie was an awesome cat sitter for the weekend i was away. My younger cat, Mylo, even made friends with her, which is amazing because he’s usually nervous with new people. I came home to happy cats and a tidy home, and I’d gladly book her again.”

“Patty was wonderful with our 2 senior cats! One needed medicine and the other needed some extra love to feel comfortable with a new petsitter. She was fantastic - took her time to meet them before our trip, and while we were away, she gave each kitty the time they needed, and sent us many photos and videos! We would recommend her 100%!”

“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.”

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.
“Amazing sitter!!! She really cares for your animals like her own and does a spectacular job with detailed notes and communication. The top notch communication really helps put your mind at ease when you’re away. She went above and beyond and we’re so incredibly grateful to have found someone so amazing! Thank you Caroline!! :)”

“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!”

“Jessica was awesome with our two cats while we were away for vacation. She gave regular updates and followed all our instructions. We came back to happy cats and a well taken care of space. We’d be happy to book her again!”

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.
“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.”

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.
