We love animals, and our daughters love to play with dogs. We take our dogs to the park all the time and they enjoy playing fetch :) I used to work at dog grooming salon as assistant for two years in Japan. Our yard is fully fenced in and dog friendly. We both work during the day Monday to Friday, so my availability is Friday evening to Sunday. We can keep you updated by sending photos if you’d like :) While kids are on their school break I will be off work so I might be able to take a dog on weekday too. We have two dogs Pretzel almost 2 years old Boba 5 months old Both neutered, and vaccination Up to date. Being around my kids all the time so They are both patient and friendly. Your dog will have their own room at night (also when I’m out of the house )which we will prepare with the bedding and/or crate you provide at drop off.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12, I am now 20 and my love for animals has only grown since! I have taken care of my family’s, friends’, & neighbors’ animals for years as well! I would like to start dog walking & doing drop-in visits because I want to fill my schedule with things I love and caring for animals fits that perfectly! I have two indoor cats that I take care of currently and own and have cared for many dogs in my lifetime such as my family’s, friends’, & neighbors’ dogs!
“Working with Megan was great! She was very thorough in communication and provided updates on all of our animals everyday. We came home to happy animals with no stress!”
“Debbie is fantastic and took care of our beloved kitty with so much love while we were gone. Communication was easy, and she was super flexible and great to work with. We'll definitely hope to have her take care of our baby every time we're traveling!”
“Kim is very responsive and caring. We are really happy to be working with her and Milo is enjoying his time for sure. We see all the photos Kim sends from her stays and the peace and mind we get from her daily visits is so helpful.”
“Kristen really is amazing. I hate leaving my pets, but feel so reassured knowing Kristen is going to be taking care of them. Her updates and pictures are amazing. Thank you Kristen!”
“Shannon & Jason were great. They bonded instantly with Picklebee. They were very responsive and responsible. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to my best friends!”
“My dog was well taken care of. I received photos everyday, which provided me a level of comfort knowing he was in good hands. I would highly recommend Anna to care for your pet.”
“Holly really helped me in a pinch. She came and took great care of my dog and cat while I was gone which allowed me to enjoy my vacation. I definitely would rebook with her in the future.”
“Jeffrey was wonderful to work with, was always on time, and followed our directions perfectly. Mishka was lucky to have them here as a drop in care taker. Thanks so much!”
About: I've had years of experience taking care of my own pets and also worked as a pet groomer for many years. I've had many animals throughout my life dogs, cats, ferrets, tortoises you name it. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule during the week and my weekends are wide open to spend time with your pets or have them over at my house. I have a fenced backyard and two dogs of my own that love to run and play with other dogs. While your pet is with me they are part of our family.
“Wonderful sitter! I received great updates and photos, and Bloom was happy and well cared for. I really appreciated the attention and communication throughout the visits. Would definitely book again!”
About: With 8 years of hands-on experience at an animal shelter, I’ve cared for animals that most sitters never encounter — newborn kittens and puppies, senior pets, and sick or injured animals who needed extra patience and attention. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, handle the unexpected, and give every pet exactly what they need to feel safe and comfortable. Combined with years of private pet sitting, I bring both professional shelter training and a genuine love for every animal that walks through my door. Whether your pet is young, old, healthy, or needs a little extra TLC — they’re in experienced, caring hands with me. My home is pet-free and has a fully fenced backyard, there’s plenty of safe outdoor space to play, explore, and burn off energy. I work a hybrid job with flexibility in my scheduling. Home most weekends as well as Mondays and Fridays with flexibility within the week. With advanced notice can typically adjust my schedule. We have a fenced yard and no pets of our own. Part time there are children in the home who are familiar with animals. Availability to visit your home during the day as well.
“Austin was great! He always sent us the best photos of our cats and communicated well about how they were doing. Our cats were happy to have him around each day! :)”
“Marshelle has been wonderful about working with us and our schedule with our fur babies. She is so nice and we are so happy we found her & her family to help us when needed. Very thankful!!”
“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.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Stevens
I am so glad that I chose Jeffrey to watch my cat, Kami Jo, while I was on vacation. He was responsive, followed directions, and kept me updated with plenty of photos. I could tell that she was happy and enjoyed his company. I would highly recommend him and use him again. My cat is quite messy so it was a relief to come home and see everything tidy and organized. Thanks again.
Tracey did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was out of town for a couple of weeks! My cat may not have been the most friendly cat, but Tracey made an effort with each visit to try to give her some attention & play time. Great communication, house was just as I left it, no major issues - I would definitely use Tracey again for my pet sitting needs!
I met Kim on Rover and then actually met Kim in person before I/we agreed it would be a good fit. It was. Kim is very professional and friendly and it's obvious how much she cares for pets. That left me with a high comfort level. I really appreciated the notifications for checkins starting/ ending and the photos. I previously had a long- standing pet sitter and was a little nervous using a new service and person. Im glad i met Kim and would definitely reach out again. Thank you!
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.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
