“Sarah went above and beyond! I could tell when I returned from my trip that my cat was well taken care of and happy. I certainly felt like I could relax on vacation without worrying if he was okay or not. Will definitely be requesting Sarah for our next trip!”
“Ren makes an impression of reliable and responsible person from the very first minute. Good energy, proved by my cats’ behavior around her! Follows the directions, quick to reply, very thorough, spends enough time with pets. You can see she enjoys their company 🥰 I hope to work with her again, I can trust my babies to her 🐱”
“Jovian was great! She did a great job caring for Spidey, and gave him lots of good playtime. She was communicative about any changes, and super flexible in scheduling our meet-and-greet! I would highly recommend her for your pet care :)”
“I am glad she finally let you pet her! A little goodbye nudge. Thank you so much! You have kept me worry -free about my sweet babies! I appreciate you so much and I know they do. I will happily use you 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!”
“Chelsea was wonderful with Hagrid! She was so sweet and attentive with him. She took him out for potty breaks, fed him, and spent time playing with him. Hagrid seemed very happy and comfortable with her. I would definitely book with Chelsea again! 😊🤍”
“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!”
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'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.
“In addition taking care of my wild little cat for two full weeks, Jenica fed fish in an outdoor pond, and kept the birds and squirrels supplied with birdseed and peanuts. Jenica is reliable, attentive to details, and caring. I returned to a happy well fed cat. Highly recommend.”
“Arielle was amazing with my fearful rescue puppy! She was patient, punctual, and sent lots of photos and updates. So nice especially as my puppy is still adjusting to her new life out of the shelter! Much appreciated!!”
“Lori was on time and took great care of my pets. Daisy needs some meds 2 times a day and Lori made sure she got them. My two cats were loving on her when she came over for the meet and greet. She even scooped the litter box! That was very unexpected. We communicated on my personal phone number and she sent pics of my happy furry kids. I will be booking with her again when I have to travel.”
“Jeanne always does an outstanding job of communicating. Her Rover cards provide great details. This enables me to relax while I'm away knowing my two cats are being wonderfully cared for. A top-notch pet sitter!”
“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.”
“I’m always reluctant to leave reviews unless the services were EXCEPTIONAL and David doesn’t disappoint. Like his other reviews, he’s really communicative. Goes above and beyond. He came to my house for drop in visits. And although he didn’t have to, he cleaned the poop in the backyard and brushed the dogs. He sent me pictures. I also had the wrong address in Seattle (I live in Lynnwood). He drove to Seattle and back and I totally deserved a good complaining BUT instead he replied “no problem” and drove all the way back up to Lynnwood. If anyone is hesitating using David, I wouldn’t!!!!! He’s 200%! Love the guy! He’s so great! And one of my dogs has serious behavioral issues too!”
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.
“Addona is amazing, as always. She makes going out a pleasure, we don't have to worry about a thing. She has to medicate both of our boys and she does a great job. Thank you Adonna, we very much appreciate you!”
About: Your pet is part of your family and I will treat them like they're part of my family. I understand rules are different in each house and I'll ensure I respect and follow your rules to ensure your pet returns just as happy and healthy as I received them. I am currently working from as a therapist so I have the flexibility and ability to ensure your pet is well cared for. They will be able to go out when needed and get regular walks! I can come to your home or they are welcome in mine. We have a large fully fenced backyard and a wonderful neighborhood with many walking paths to ensure they get their stimulation. For the cats, we have cat towers and toys ready to go for the playful kitties.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Forest Park
Elaina is the absolute best, and we feel so lucky to have found her! Our cat takes a little time to warm up to new people, and Elaina has been so patient, gentle, and kind with her. We love seeing their relationship grow and watching the trust (and pets!) build each time. We always feel completely at ease knowing our girl is in such good hands, and her updates and photos while we’re away are the best. We truly can’t recommend Elaina enough!
I like Chelse's energy and positivity, and my cats also seem to like her. Well, Milo likes everybody. But I can tell from the photos that everybody got attended to, fed, played with, petted, and/or brushed. I loved seeing the pictures every day while I was out. I would book Chelse again.
Ricardo was very patient, thorough, responsive and nice. He did everything we asked for perfectly. My cat’s very shy, and I appreciate how respectful of her space he was while still taking care of her. I recommend working with him, I know I’d definitely book him again.
Michelle was a pinch hitter while my other sitter wasn’t available. She did a meet and greet with the crew and they loved her. She was proactive about following up with me and ensuring she had all the details for a successful visit. She put up with all the antics of my crew very well. She was on time for all of her visits and was great at providing updates with each visit. Everyone seemed happy and healthy, so overall a great visit. I plan on using her again.

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 September 2026, there are 11,747 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.
