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.
“My boys are very excitable & can be quite loud. I was worried about leaving them with someone entering our home they had only met briefly as they’re giant scaredy cats, but the patience shown to help them relax paired with lotsa cuddles, text updates, photos, and report cards brought me so much comfort! We’ll be having Arielle back ASAP 🖤”
About: I have been involved with various animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up around cats, dogs, horses, and exotics. Recently I worked as a vet tech at a veterinary office so I have experience administering medication to cats, dogs, and horses. Most recently I worked at a dog boarding facility where I watched, fed, walked, trained, gave medication, and bathed, up to 50 dogs at a time. I am happy to work with you around your schedule and habits with your pets. I strive to make life easier for pet owners while ensuring their pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work around your needs and your pet’s routine. The only times I may be unavailable are when I have occasional prior commitments. I will be respectful to your home and your pet's normal routine. I am happy to follow any guidelines you may have about your pet's food, sleeping conditions, toys, comfort, etc.
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!
About: I’ve worked in the animal care industry for 10 years now and I’ve grown up with dogs ! They are absolutely a passion of mine! I am also the owner and operator of Oh Shih Tzu mobile grooming!

I always treat any animal like they are my own! I love getting to know pups and their personalities as every pup is special in their own way !
About: Caring for animals since childhood, I've always had a passion for providing love, attention, and the best care for pets, ensuring they feel safe and happy. I currently work from home and would be able to assist with your furry friend’s needs. Just let me know what works best for you. I offer a fully fenced yard for you furry friend to enjoy. I can also provide the care you need for your furry friend in your home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Stevens
Bhargavi did an excellent job caring for our three cats. She is the first cat sitter that was able to get our cats to come out of hiding for attention. She sent us regular updates with pictures; we weren’t so worried about our fur babies. We will use Bhargavi in the future and would highly recommend her.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lake Stevens is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 9,002 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Stevens. 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 Stevens. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
