“Elizabeth took great care of my cat Bella! She was prompt to answer messages and communicated well during her visits. She included info about what her and Bella did during visits, how much Bella drank/ate/used her litter box, and kept Bella’s litter tidy. She followed all instructions perfectly and gave my sweet old cat lots of love. I would definitely book with her again.”
“This is our 2nd time using Millie as our cat sitter. She is the only person I trust with my 3 boys. She’ communicates well, she cares about the pets, and follows directions perfectly! Any pet would be lucky to have her as their sitter! Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Jordan was very attentive and showed real compassion for our pets. They really shined with the challenge that our four legged ones can present. Would recommend them to anyone.”
About: I have been around dogs and animals my entire life, I had multiple dogs and cats growing up and currently have two dogs. I have often dog sat for neighbors and family. I am currently enrolled in college at Montana State University so I will be very open for dog sitting during the summer and winter breaks I can not care for client's pet in my home at this time but I have a very friendly pup that will get along with almost any dog if your pup needs a new friend. I also have experience with kenneling a dog when needed.
About: I grew up in a house with dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs and hamsters, so caring for pets is second nature to me. I've been a dog mom most of my adult life, raising an English Springer Spaniel, Sasha, from a pup, and a rescue, Delilah (in my photo), from 9 months. I've had experience in all aspects of training my dogs to have good manners, walk on a leash, etc. As a middle school teacher, I am skilled in keeping a schedule, following routines, and enjoying life while helping others! During my summer break and some school breaks, I can be available for walks and drop-ins twice per day. When I am in the swing of school, I can care for your pet(s) on weekends - go for that long hike, or get out of town for a night or two. I've got you covered! Because I do not have a fenced yard, I will only be dropping in for visits in a client's home. I look forward to exploring the neighborhood with your dog on a nice long walk!
“Jeremy is the absolute BEST! He took such excellent care of our 2 kitties and went the extra mile to play with them. If you need the BEST caregiver for your pets, Jeremy is definitely the one. He is kind, gentle and trustworthy. THANK YOU JEREMY!!!”
About: Hi, I’m Nick. I have professionally worked with dogs for 7 years. My background includes; working for various dog daycares, providing dog training with companies and privately, dog walking, dog sitting and pet nutrition. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and your pup and providing a fun time for your furry friend. I’m currently working a full time job. I will only be available on my days off which currently are Saturday and Sunday. I am also available Fridays after 5 pm I absolutely love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I will always strive to be the best for each of their individual needs. I have a lot of energy and can keep up with young dogs. But I also have a dog who can be a bit timid at times so I will always take my time and make sure your fur baby is comfortable. Every dog is different and I will always change what I need to, to accommodate their personality and comfort zones. (Little side note) because of my experience in dog behavior management if it is something that would interest you, I would love introduce my dog to your pup and let them get some of they’re crazy energies out. Feel free to let me know if this is something of interest. I will only introduce them if pre-approved by owner
About: I’ve been trusted to take care of many of my families dogs. Feeding their dogs, taking them out for walks, keeping them entertained, and picking up after themselves. I’m a High School student about to graduate so after graduation I am not busy at all, walking dogs would be an excellent way to stay active during nice days. I walk/play with my dog everyday keeping him active and healthy, feed him when need be and clean up after him. When going over to families house I take the dog out for walks, play with them and clean up any messes they made.
About: I've house sat and walked multiple sized dogs. I've also been around quite a few dogs in my lifetime. My parents had a puppy and I ended up having to take care of her for a while and I went to obedience training with her so I have some training skills. I currently am working part-time so I'll be more open to drop-ins and walks. I work retail though so my schedule isn't set but I am willing to try and work with you. I will give them lots of love and attention, activity, and I will make sure your pets are treated like my own; loved, safe, and fed.
About: I have loads of experience caring for both my own dogs and those of my family and friends. We have a cozy, pet friendly home and a large, fenced backyard for play and potty breaks. Currently we share our home with a small dog, a sweet cat and have chickens outside. I feel confident that I can help your dog feel comfortable and safe in our home. I am a retired kindergarten teacher with time to attend and care for your pets. I can provide a reliable routine to ensure your pet is comfortable. Being home all day to provide attention and care helps your dog feel comfortable and safe. Our fenced backyard also offers a secure place for him/her to explore and play.

“We were lucky to find a caretaker like Terry for our senior while we were away. She clearly has a love for animals and our cats got along with her. She gave oral med to one of our cats daily. Her daily pictures were great to see as we knew they were being well taken care of. She even offered to help out if we got delayed coming home or if we needed any additional visits which gave us an added peace of mind while we were away. Terry is easy to get along with and is very reliable.”
About: Hi, I’m Nyomi! I’m 18 years old and proudly a cat mom and dog step-mom, so animals are a huge part of my everyday life. I’ve been caring for pets for several years feeding, grooming, playing, walking, and making sure they feel loved and safe. I’m super patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy bonding with animals of all kinds. I know how to read their moods, give them space when needed, and shower them with attention when they want it. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or playtime in the yard, I’m all in. What sets me apart? I bring a calm, nurturing energy and treat every pet like they’re family. I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities, and I’m great with shy or nervous pets too. Whether you're looking for someone to care for a playful puppy or a chill senior dog, I’ve got it covered with love and care. I work 12–6 on weekdays, with every other Monday off, and I'm available mornings and evenings during the week. On weekends, I work full-time but still have flexibility early mornings or late evenings for drop-ins or walks. I love incorporating pet care into my routine and it's honestly a calming and rewarding part of my day. Whether it’s a quick visit, feeding, or a longer stay, I make time for animals because they bring me joy. When caring for pets, safety and comfort come first. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely from feeding schedules to behavior quirks so your pets feel secure and happy. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment whether I’m in my home or yours. I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and always check gates, leashes, and food portions to keep your furry friends safe. I treat every pet like they’re my own with love, patience, and attention to detail.
About: I grew up with a variety of dog breeds. Some had jobs, like guarding or hunting, while others were simple companions. We believe the dog's personality and inclinations determine a dog's role. I love all manner of dogs. I support zero discrimination against size, age, breed, need, or quirk. I love to adapt my technique to accommodate the specific needs of each dog in my care. I am mild-mannered and nurturing, naturally connected with dogs. I currently am unable to own (or board) a dog as my apartment building has restrictions. Therefore, I have a pretty open schedule. I desire quality time with a pup in need of the same. "It takes a village to raise a family," they say. I am available to be the extra member of support for the health & happiness of your loved one(s). I work from home with very flexible hours. I am happy to supplement my days with some quality play or walk time with your pups while giving you relief, thus allowing you to tend to other matters when needed. In addition, I can build routines around your needs. I can work with your dog in the environment you provide, be it your home, the local dog park, or simple laps around the block. But, ultimately, It is of the utmost importance that trust is established and maintained throughout our working relationship. I understand how challenging it can be to find someone with whom you wholeheartedly trust with the care of your pup, and I intend to be that person.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Stevens
Jeffrey took great care of our special needs senior lab. He made sure to use his harness, followed his feeding and pill administration instructions, and took amazing photos of our pup! He is super easy to communicate with and very flexible and friendly. We are so happy to have met him and will definitely be utilizing his exceptional services in the future! thank you so much, Jeffrey!
Tiana was amazing with our three fur babies. We have a senior dog with anxiety and over protective; Tiana was able to get her in the back yard and play. We also have an one-year with lots of energy. Also, the cat tends to hide and no one can finder her, but she came out to make her presence known. My animals seemed to have a great experience.
We needed a short notice drop in for our dog Zima and Grace was super helpful! She was very quick with responses and very communicative. She sent us many pictures of Zima during the drop in, which we loved! And we could tell from the pictures that Zima was super happy and comfortable with Grace.
Kim is absolutely incredible and I highly recommend her as a sitter! Kim and her family use to board our German Shepherd, Boomer when we went out of town and Boomer loved spending time at her home! Boomer actually adopted them as a second family. Kim now does drop in visits for our Toy Aussie, Bella and always does an excellent job! I also personally refer her to my own Rover clients when I am unavailable to take a job:) Kim also Rovers for my other family members! A+++ Service:)

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 Stevens stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lake Stevens choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lake Stevens with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
