About: I'm a 27-year-old graduate student at UW Bothell working toward my Master's in Accounting. I've been around animals my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats, and I currently have three cats of my own. When I'm not studying, you'll usually find me playing soccer, skiing, or spending time outdoors. I've spent my whole life around both dogs and cats, so I understand that every pet is different. I enjoy getting to know their personalities and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I'll treat yours like they're my own. Whether it's keeping up with their routine, making sure they get plenty of attention, or sending updates while you're away, my goal is to help both you and your pet feel comfortable and stress-free. As a grad student, my schedule's pretty flexible — a mix of day and night classes means I can usually work around a pet's routine rather than the other way around. That flexibility lets me be consistent with feeding, walks, and check-ins, even if the hours shift day to day. I map out my free windows in advance, so your pet's routine stays steady no matter what my class day looks like. Whether I'm in your home or mine, safety and comfort always come first. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible — same feeding times, same walk schedule, same little habits — so nothing feels disrupted while you're away. I keep a close eye on their environment and I'm always watching for anything that seems off. Having dogs and cats of my own means I'm used to spotting small changes in behavior early. My goal is always the same: your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like they're one of my own.
“David was awesome and we can’t recommend him enough! He did great with all of our large breed dogs which are 75 lbs, 158lbs, and 160lbs. He was on time, had outstanding communication, and took wonderful care of them while we were gone! We even had a mishap with our electronic door lock running out of battery (dog owner’s worst nightmare) We found a solution and he handled it with ease, which in turn put us at ease. Would absolutely hire again! 5 stars! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“Beau takes excellent care of our pup, giving us peace of mind when we're away. Beau is reliable, attentive, and truly loves animals. We couldn't be happier with Beau’s services and highly recommend Beau to anyone in need of a trustworthy dog sitter.”

“Hannah and David have watched our dogs many times. They are great at communicating and are very reliable. My dogs can be high maintenance and one of my dogs is very scared with new people. Hannah is great with both dogs which is very reassuring. Hannah and David are the people I trust the most to look after our dogs.”
“Rover Review She was absolutely wonderful with Enzo! She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable. I really appreciated all the updates and photos throughout her visits—it gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely recommend her and will absolutely book with her again!”
“Catie provides great info/updates about my senior doggo after a drop in visit! She's able to give him meds if needed and seems to understand my older guys needs.”
About: What sets me apart is that dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve lived with at least one dog my entire life—from growing up with a Husky/German Shepherd mix and helping care for her, to having a Pug/Dachshund mix who I took on daily walks after school. Now that I live on my own, I don’t have a dog of my own, but I really miss having a furry companion around! I’d love the opportunity to give your dog some extra attention, exercise, and companionship through walks, playtime, or visits. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs, and I’m happy to follow your routines and instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for. I am working as a substitute teacher and have some flexibility depending on my schedule to walk dogs. I can also drop in for visits as needed. Weekends are open for house sitting but needs to be booked in advance. I care for pets with the same patience, attention, and consistency I would want for my own pets. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure pets are safe and comfortable in their environment and keep their space clean. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their personality, routines, preferences, and any special instructions from their owner. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel comfortable while their family is away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

Not only will I treat your pet as if they are my own. I will ensure you that I will respect you and your home
About: My name is Sam, I’m 21 and I’ve been around dogs my entire life, & what sets me apart from other sitters is I have almost 6 years of experience, ranging from working at a dog daycare, dealing with very large groups of dogs (up to 120+ at once), & dealing with a variety of dog breeds, ranging from XS to XL, seniors, puppies & even aggressive or timid dogs. I also have experience/certification with basic training & boarding care, understanding dog body language, dog healthcare, and basic grooming. I work full-time at a dog daycare/boarding facility (I do want to start shifting to working for Rover full time.), but I am available after and/or before work and on my days off for drop ins/walks. My schedule typically stays the same, but can sometimes shift. Currently right now I have Wednesday/Thursday off; and work Friday/Saturday 9am-6pm, Sunday/Tuesday 7:30am-4:30pm, and Monday 7:30am-6pm. Safety and trust are paramount in my approach to caring for dogs. With certifications in training and safety, I prioritize creating a secure environment where dogs feel safe and loved.
“Love Emma - been using her for daily walks for our rambunctious puppy for over a month now. She’s super responsive/communicative and better yet - great with the pup, who is always happy to see here. Super impressed at her ability to handle a 10 month old strong and energetic lab puppy, which at times can be difficult/frustrating, but she is always happy to help & has saved our skin on many occasions. Our pup just adores her.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Lake Forest Park is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Forest Park
I cannot recommend Catelyn highly enough. She is professional in every sense of the word, dependable when you need someone you can depend on, and trustworthy in a way that truly earns your trust. She communicates exceptionally well and consistently shows patience, compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail. Most importantly, Catelyn genuinely cares about the animals she works with. My dog absolutely loves her and is always excited to see her, which speaks for itself. The connection she builds with animals is positive, natural, and clearly based on trust. If you are looking for someone who is caring because she truly cares and dedicated because she is genuinely committed to what she does, Catelyn is an outstanding choice.
Stephanie was great!!! She took such great care of our pup and really knows her stuff across the board when it comes to cats and dogs. Super trustworthy, responsive and reliable. Everything you look for in someone looking after your fur baby. Thank you Stephanie!
Sarah looked after my cat for two weeks during my vacation in October 2026. I've been highly pleased with her care of my furry son and my house and how consistent and effective her communication was!!! I'll be leaving my cat in her hands with great peace of mind during subsequent trips
Ren did a wonderful job watching my senior kitty while I was away. Care included a transdermal medication which she applied confidently. I appreciated the daily check-in and had total peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands. And in the future I will absolutely hire Ren again and exuberantly recommend her services! 🐈⬛🐈
Lu was amazing with our cat, Peeve! She was super responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates, and took such great care of her while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Peeve was in such good hands. We would absolutely book Lu again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lake Forest Park is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 11,617 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Forest Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , 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:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
