“Shannon did an excellent job providing drop in care for our sweet pups this week. Will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to others looking for a caring and trustworthy person.”
About: I'm super passionate about animals and pet care, and I am grateful for every opportunity to hang out with them. I love to spend time getting to know pets, and I am great at adapting to their quirks and needs! As a recent graduate, I'm looking to expand my pet care experience and help people. I'm available all week, and devote most of my time to animals - with my experience including hundreds of hours of pet sitting and dog walking, my role as a wildlife care assistant at PAWS, and experience as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic! When caring for pets at my house or a client's, I never leave for long periods, and I'm great at staying on top of medication requirements. I am also able to provide pick-up and drop-off services to make things easier for owners.
“I needed someone to do late night visits with my pups and David was great! The photos he sent of my babies showed they clearly loved him and were very well taken care of. He even brought packages in for me on multiple occasions which I greatly appreciated! Will definitely be using him again in the future.”
“Michael took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for an extended vacation. He took time with them and sent us regular updates, which was very much appreciated. When our plans changed while we were on the road, Michael graciously extended his time with us. What a relief to know our pets were in such capable hands. Highly recommended.”
“Talia took very good care of our new kittens over the weekend. I received several photos during each drop-in visit. The care that Talia took with the narrative for each visit was much appreciated! My husband and I will definitely book with Talia again.”
“Jovian was incredible. We were going out of town and had someone drop out of giving our senior kitty subcutaneous fluids the night before. Jovian immediately replied to us, came over, and successfully went through the process with us and our cat. She took care of our cat’s fluids very well while we were gone. She is thorough, was attentive and calm with our cat, is professional, and is communicative. We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her!”
“Jenica is great! Very responsive and communicative. We got lots of wonderful pictures of our cats everyday we were away. Food, water dispenser, and litter boxes were all taken care of, and the cats were clearly loved on. Had no worries or concerns at all. Thank you, Jenica!”
“I am so happy to have found Arielle via Rover! She is a great communicator, on time, and takes great photos of her time with our little puppy, Chibi. Totally at ease with Arielle in our home or her taking her to her home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to another pet family.”
About: I have loved dogs ever since growing up with two of them, and I helped care for them, especially as they got older. I currently help out with my roommate’s two dogs, and I have experience dog-sitting two greyhounds and walking dogs for a job. I also have two cats of my own and have cat-sit for neighbors and friends before. I’m currently a paraeducator in the Port Angeles school district, and I end my day at 2, so I am available for walks/check-ins after that on weekdays, and most weekends. I am not able to house animals in my own home since there are already animals there who do not have experience around new animals. However, I am happy to stay overnight as I am available to care for your house and pet, and I can also stop by to feed, play with, and/or walk your pet.
“I have booked Adonna several times now for drop in visits and I have never once been disappointed. She is consistently reliable, communicative, and always kind. She is my #1 choice to leave my cat with. Highly recommend!”
“I am so blessed to have a cat whisperer like Kathryn take such great care of of my kitties. It makes it so much easier to enjoy myself on vacation knowing they are well taken care of. 🥰”
“Teagan came by for a drop-in for our elderly dog. When he met our dog at the meet and greet, she let him pick her up even though she is normally very particular about who can pick her up. He must have a natural way with dogs! The drop-in went well (on time, communicative, sent a pic), so we definitely want him to keep coming by for these drop-in visits!”
“Stephanie came and watched our 2 kitties for us while we were on our honeymoon for 2 weeks and she was incredible!!!! Our kitties loved her and she made them both feel so comfortable. She brought them toys and treats and gave them lots of attention. We felt so much more at ease knowing our cats were being well taken care of while we were away. We booked her again a month later and will forever use her as our cat sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Rose taking care of our little old lady cat over the holidays. We had not left her alone for several years, but she seemed instantly at home and snuggly with Rose, who gave her tons of wonderful attention. Communication was excellent and we got lots of great updates and pics. Even though our kitty can be very finicky about taking her daily medication, she seemed to gobble down every single dose while Rose was here - she just responded super well in general to Rose's care. Not just that, but her coat has not been this clean and fluffy in a long time - two brushings a day is going to be a tough act to follow! :) We wholeheartedly recommend Rose and would absolutely love to have her look after our little floof again in the future!”
“Lu was an amazing catsitter. Would recommend her in a heartbeat! She immediately connected with our cat, took excellent care of her, paid close attention to instructions we left, was an excellent communicator. Plus sent us gorgeous photos every day!”
“I have booked Shandel 3 times now and she has been wonderful. My two cats seem to always come out to greet her and my difficult kitty Theo has no issues coming right up to her for pets, play and to be held. Great signs that she is taking good care of them as I'm gone.”
About: Mom at heart here - to humans and fur babies. I offer the kind of love that all living creatures deserve, especially ones that don't communicate with words. Being a mom to a special needs child has given me the patience and Spidey senses to anticipate needs, and pick up on cues from our non-verbal friends. I promise to provide a fun and safe environment for your dog or cat friend - whether that be in my home or any place when in my care. I don't have any pets of my own. But I have big house that I enjoy filling with the sounds and bountiful energy of someone else's lovely pets. I've had cats most of my adult life, and grew up always having a dog. My last dog was an energetic and clumsy Dalmatian named Kramer (yep, like in Seinfeld). He always knew how to make an entrance :) I work full-time from home (M-F). So flexibility is the name of the game. I have online work meetings and calls, here and there. But your pet will have a full view of me when I care for them in my home. My desk is set up in an large, open concept space, with lots of hardwood floors and a cushy couch for them to watch me work. I even keep toys near my desk for that impromptu 'catch' or 'fetch' session. And in between meetings, I will give them play time, potty breaks and walks. My back yard is large, but not fenced. If your dog prefers to run carefree and has difficulty with recall, I promise to keep them on a leash when exploring the surrounding flora and fauna of my yard. For neighborhood walks, we offer lotsa bushes to smell and grass to chew on. And for additional exercise, there are nearby dog parks to make new friends and burn off some energy. I work from home and my schedule is flexible to take breaks from my keyboard for play time, potty breaks and mostly to keep your pup company. While my backyard is not fenced, I maintain my doors locked at all times and will always ensure your dog is on a leash before we leave the house.
“Lovely to work with, very conscientious and thorough, friendly, great communicator! The cats *instantly* liked her, she sent us a lot of pictures and it looks like they had a great time while we were gone, as well as being very well cared for. Superior service, and I would definitely work with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Forest Park
Jovian did drop-in visits for our two cats while we were away and it was completely stress-free. Great photo updates every visit, and both cats were relaxed and well fed when we got home. Easy to communicate with and accommodating when our plans had to change. We'll book her again.
JR was awesome! My 2 golden retrievers were well taken care of. Updates included lots of pictures and verification of all the important things to make me feel totally at ease while they were in her care. I always knew they got outside exercise, had water, got some extra love and hugs and were fed. I came home to happy pups. Will definitely book JR again.
Elaina was the best! My pets instantly felt safe around her and you can tell she's got a natural touch with animals. She left me detailed notes and pictures every visit and it was such a relief knowing my fur babies were safe and well looked after in Elaina's care. Will be booking with her again, no questions about it.
Jeanne always does an outstanding job taking care of my two cats. I appreciate how well she communicates and love reviewing the pics she sends in the Rover cards. She's my go-to pet sitter whenever I schedule a trip. I actually book my trips around her schedule because I don't want to use another pet sitter!
Venessa was amazing!! My mother had a last-minute trip planned and we needed someone to check in on her two dogs for the weekend. Venessa came through and did so well with them. We recommend you reach out to her for any fur-baby needs and we will definitely book her again!
Stephanie was a spectacular caretaker for our kitty Zeus. It was our first time leaving Zeus alone for more than 2 days and I had peace of mind with Stephanie. She was EXTREMELY caring and attentive to Zeus. She kept us up to date with multiple texts and pictures, and she even brought him different treats and games to play with. I highly recommend Stephanie for looking after your baby. SHE IS AMAZING.
First time using Rover, and what a good experience! Found Jenica thru the search in my part of Seattle. She was wonderful with both of my cats. First: they're not used to anyone but me, and Jenica made sure that she was friends with them, before I left on my vacation. I loved the picture updates from her, and if she had any questions about the cats, or anything with my apartment, she didn't hesitate to ask. She even put the AC vent back in my window(heated back up again). Highly recommend Jenica to take care of your pets. She cares for them like they're her own, and is very thorough in her care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lake Forest Park on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 11,800 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Forest Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Lake Forest Park 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Forest Park. 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.
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.
