“Shannon was amazing! She took care of our 2 cats and sent us updates and photos daily. Will definitely use her again. Communication is 10/10 and she is very good with cats.”
“Maria always takes such wonderful care of our cats — she goes above and beyond! We love seeing all the great photos and videos she takes; it’s so nice to see our cats happy, playing, getting snuggles, and eating! We know we can rely on her and that our cats are in great hands when we’re away!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and love nothing more than to give fur babies my undivided attention! Since moving to Washington 5 years ago, I’ve been caring for friends/neighbors' pets, taking them on walks, feeding them, playing, and watching them while they are out of town. I just adopted my own mixed pup from Seattle Humane in April; let me spoil your sweet kitties and pups! I can work from home most days, and set my own schedule for the most part, so I am able to take short breaks to take pets on walks or work from another home to make sure the pup or kitty isn't alone for extended periods of time. I imagine pet care fitting easily into the days I work from home. I don't currently have any pets in my home. When it comes to pet sitting, I always make sure to open the door slowly if the pet is loose in the house. I let the pet sniff my hand before attempting to touch them, and give them space if they don't seem to want to interact with me. When it comes to walking, I don't walk with headphones in to make sure I can hear what else is going on nearby. I wouldn't take them near spaces where I know there are likely to be other dogs unless that is requested.
“Hattie was wonderful! In between feedings and litter cleanings, she played with our super active kitten each visit and was able to get some of his wiggles out. She was also able to coax out our older cat out to get some love (she’s still getting used to our little hellion kitten lol). Thank you so much for taking such good care of them!”
“Lynlee took care of my cat while I was traveling. She was great at communicating and made an extra effort with my stranger-averse kitty. Would definitely hire again.”
“Kaitlyn was fantastic with our two cats. She was always communicative and left detailed visit info. House was in perfect order when we got home from our trip. She also went above and beyond with spraying the ants that showed up and watering our garden.”
“Charlotte did great once again watching my little fur ball. She even brought some of her own cat treats when she noticed my cat was not a fan of the ones I bought. She is so good when it comes to take care of my cat. She makes being away easier for me because I know she will do a great job!”
“Samah took excellent care of our cats while we were away. Everyday we received photos of them and knew they were being well cared for. Her son even left the most adorable drawings of each cat that are now being proudly displayed on our fridge. You can rest assured that with Samah your pets will be loved as if they are her own.”
“Alyssa was so awesome! I had never used a pet sitter before so was a bit unsure, but now I feel totally comfortable. She took great care of my two cats over four days and I really appreciated receiving a bunch of pics after each visit. Alyssa is communicative and trustworthy, and I will 100% ask her to help us for any future trips!!”
“We were looking for someone to check in on our cat for a few weeks; I’m glad we found Anna. First encounters went well. I will definitely use her services again. She left detailed notes and sent enough pictures! 🫶🏼”
“Great experience overall. Very responsive, kept us updated with lots of great photos, and took excellent care of our pets. We felt totally at ease while we were away. Would absolutely book again.”
“Angelica is a great proactive communicator and really understands cats! I appreciate that she took photos of their litter box and water fountain as well. Would love to book her for future sitter needs!”
“Hannah was amazing!! Our other cat sitter had to cancel 1 week before our trip due to a family emergency so we were in a bit of a panic when we reached out to Hannah. Lucky for us, Hannah responded quickly to our inquiry and was able to come by for a meet and greet the next day. She showed up on time and our cats liked her right away! She was very personable and asked great questions. She reached out the day before our trip and while we were gone for 4 days, she checked in 1-2 times each day which was so great! She sent lots of great photos and a video or two which we loved!! We could tell our cats were happy with her. Our house was clean and tidy when we got home which we always appreciate. We will absolutely ask Hannah to come back again for future trips! 😸😸”
“All I can say about Xiuqi is that she is amazing. She took care of my kitties like they were her own. She was always on time and went above and beyond to take care of them. Though I had special request she took care of my concerns right away. She is a great communicator as well. Would recommend her with no hesitation.”
“Tony is a trusted, careful, attention to detail pet sitter. She took excellent care of my kitty, Indy and my canary, Sparky. She saw that my trash & recycle bins got out as well as put away once they were emptied. She made sure my mail was collected daily and she even made sure the bedding was removed & ready to be laundered as she completed the job! She picked up cat food @ Mud Bay to be sure Indy had what he needed while I was gone! Her love for animals shines through! Indy I know is Tony’s #1 FAN! Thank YOU, Tony!”
“Tiffany did a great job with three check-in visits with my two pet rabbits while I was gone for the week. It’s nice to see that my shy rabbits want to come out and see you! Thank you for communicating and sending helpful photos! I appreciate you following the extra requests I added and for filling out my checklist! We look forward to your help again!”
“Tasha was awesome with Namir. Namir was well taken care of and happy when I got home. Tasha followed all instructions which i really appreciated. I will definitely be booking Tasha again. I am very happy that I found someone I can trust with my fur baby. 😊”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lynnwood
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!
Chloe is an outstanding pet sitter! She took care of my 18 year old cat for 2 weeks when I was away. She was completely reliable, visiting twice a day (I got notifications and photos). She played with my kitty and faithfully gave her medicine. It’s so reassuring to know that while I’m gone, my cat is well fed and well cared for.
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.
Carina stepped in on very short notice to care for our cat over Labor Day weekend and we couldn't have been more appreciative. We've worked with her several times now, and she has always done a wonderful job. Carina is a kind, reliable, and conscientious person. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy petsitter.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .

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.
