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.
About: I grew up with dogs in my family, walking other people’s dogs and now have a dog of my own. I love to walk, and I love to play with dogs. I’m very comfortable with walking dogs of all sizes. I’m not intimidated by big dogs (we had a 95 pound BullMastiff). I’m good at building trust with a dog by letting them move at their pace. And I understand some dogs can be anxious or shy. I’ve taken care of my friend’s very anxious chihuahua. I know to make sure he knew I was about to reach him and to make sure I was always calm so he felt safer. I’m also happy to do drop-in for cats. Many of my friends have cats and I love to play with them, and know to be calm and let them come to me. My job schedule varies depending on the week, but I usually work evenings. So even days I work, I can potentially walk or do drop-ins during the day. I don’t care for pet’s in my home. But for client’s homes, I would make sure to leave my shoes by the door before entering the house. I would also make sure to wipe the dog’s paws if necessary before entering the house. I would make sure to check that their waterbowl is full, and anything else the owner asked for. For drop-ins, I like to make sure the dog or cat gets some playtime and pets.
“Jenica is the best!!! She was so patient with my very anxious and reactive pup, brought her extra treats to win her over, and was so communicative through it all. I already rebooked her and my dog was already calmer on her second visit. So glad I found her!!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Elaina was loving, attentive and supportive to our elderly cat while we were on vacation for a week! She sent photos every day, took wonderful care of our cat, and wonderful care of our home! I highly recommend Elaina to everyone!”
“Rose was very communicative and thorough in asking questions to make sure our cats got the proper care while we were away. She is very adaptable and worked with us to make sure she could take care of our cats even through a busy holiday period. Thank you, Rose!”
“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.”
“Kathryn dropped by twice a day for 3 days and took amazing care of our 3 cats. She even got out shyest cat to play! She cleaned after them and followed our instructions. She was very professional and sweet with the kitties”
“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.”
“Jovian took fabulous care of my 2 Newfoundland girls which gave me an ease of mind. She is such a nice person and super easy to communicate with. She made sure sharing several photos of the newf girls and a detailed report so that I could see them while I was away and know about their visit. Much appreciated and highly recommended! Thank you! 🐾❤️🐾”
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.
“Jeanne was amazing with our two cats. She played with them and made sure they had enough food, water & a clean litter box each visit. She also swept their room and left it nice and clean. Our cats loved Jeanne and I would highly recommend her to care for your cats.”
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.
“Stephanie was great, my cat Lewis has some social issues and not always the friendliest cat but Stephanie was patient and worked with him. I am really looking forward to being able to go somewhere and have a reliable person to feed my cats.”
About: I have had a labrador retriever for 5 years now and have developed a deep care and passion for dogs! My dog was quite crazy so I definitely have experience with training and teaching pets. I am very patient, reliable, and friendly! Whether it’s a simple walk or overnight boarding, I would be more than happy to care for your dog! ☺️🐾🐶 I am currently on summer break so I have a lot of time to care for your pups!! My schedule is very free and flexible! I am very responsible and reliable when taking care of pets! I stay on schedule and make sure to keep a comfy environment for pets. I will always give them the attention they need!
“Kory is amazing! He always goes above and beyond. His updates are great and usually leave you with a smile on your face! Highly recommend Kory!!! Pups give two paws up!!”
“Adonna did an amazing job taking care of our 3 kitties this weekend. On our meetup the week before she was attentive, took some time to get to know each of our cats and even brought them treats. She was able to medicate and give subcutaneous fluids to our really smart older cat. On every visit she sent us a greatly detailed update with pictures, which brought us so much joy knowing that our cats were being loved while we were away. We will certainly keep working with her as we know she will take good care of them in our behalf. Thank you Adonna!”
About: I'm a long-time dog lover and I understand the need to trust anyone who cares for them. I take caring for someone else's pets seriously. I'm a semi-retired person who would like to help other pet-owners, make a little extra money, be of service and get out of the house. I consider our pets family, and treat them as such. We have two little dogs: a Pomeranian, and a Swedish Vallhund. They are our children in so many ways. They're a part of our lives in so many ways. I understand the need to trust someone to look after them so I take the responsibility seriously whether I'm walking or visiting your pet. They's comfort and safety are my concern.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Lake Forest Park is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Forest Park
Peng is extremely punctual and settled with our shy babies pretty well to the point one would always follow her around the house. Her daily updates and photos helped us keep assured of the well being. She was very prompt in setting up a meet and greet and sharing her focus on care and safety. Would definitely have her for future visits.
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.
Jeanne was accommodating with our scheduling and engaging and thorough with caring for our kitties. Respectful, responsive, a huge help with their playful energy as well as wonderful photos that kept us up to date with them from far away. Knowing they were being doted on meant the world to our family and let us be present on vacation with no worries for our feline family members.
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.
Jessica came for a drop-in visit for our dog, Mazzy. She played frisbee with her, let her have a dip in her pool and wiped her down before coming back in the house. It was great knowing that we could count on Jessica to give our dog a break and some attention while we were gone for the day. We will definitely hire her again. Thanks Jessica!
1000% recommend Samanta! I was nervous since it was the first time being away from our 10mo old bengal along with our 15yr old bengal but from day 1 Samanta set my worries aside. She won both of my cats over! She gave very detailed updates each day on their eating, behavior, litter routine, playtime. Lots of pictures and videos which we loved! When we came home both kitties were perfectly happy - I think they were wondering where was Samanta lol. It was also so nice to come back to everything taken care of after the late flight in - she even prepped for the next day which I sooo appreciated. I will definitely seek her out the next time we’re out of town to take care of our kitties!!
Arwen was wonderful! She took care of our cats during our 4-day trip and gave us great peace of mind. She sent us pictures and detailed updates every day, which we really appreciated. When we came back, the cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We would definitely recommend Arwen and would be happy to book with her again.

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.
