“My second time booked with Shannon. Shannon took great care of my cat, great communication, and sending me pictures for each visit! Thank you so much for taking care of my cat again!”
About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. I currently have a 7 month old puppy and 2 cats who are a year and a half. We adopted all of them at about 7 weeks, so I have plenty of experience with pups and kittens, and my puppy is an eager playmate for your dog if they’d like that! I’ve also taken care of senior dogs and cats, so your little oldie is safe with me as well ◡̈ I’m eager to provide patient and attentive care to every animal regardless of their needs. I live a very active lifestyle and love running around with fur babies! I currently work part time so my schedule is pretty open. The main times I’m not available are when I work Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays 6am-2:30pm. I also have school Mondays 2pm-5pm and Thursdays 1pm-5pm. For house sitting services- I am happy to stay over at your home and care for your dog or cat in any way they need! Please check my availability to see times that I have work and school because I will have to be away from your home for those hours. For dog walking services- I am happy to walk your dog wherever would make you feel safest and most comfortable. If your dog likes dog parks, I have a few that I trust and take my dog to regularly. My apartment building also has a fenced, off-leash dog area that rarely has any other dogs in it and I’d be happy to run around with your dog there as well.
“Really great experience using Yomna. Even though this was her first time caring for my dog Aurora, she is clearly experienced working with active dogs and can adjust to her activity level. Very good at providing updates. Very satisfied.”
“We were so grateful to have Kory take care of our kitties again. Kory is always so sweet and kind, and we love receiving photos and thoughtful updates when we are out of town.”
“Nathan was extremely helpful watching my dog, taking him on walks, and spending time with him. Very trustworthy, very kind, follows directions well and keeps you informed which meant a lot to me. He was always punctual and very understanding of my concerns. I will definitely be booking him again!”
“In addition to taking great care of our cats, Lily went above and beyond by making sure things were ok after a power outage. She had great communication and I highly recommend her.”
“I highly recommend Julia as an experienced pet sitter! She was really great for drop-ins with my cat, giving him lots of play time and helping him practice his cat tricks. Her schedule was very flexible. We came home to a healthy and happy cat!”
“Sherri was such a blessing to have for our senior pup. He warmed up to her right away and enjoyed her company through a week of check-ins. We could not be happier in our choice to have Sherri as our sitter and would have her again in a moments notice. She was prompt, professional, easy to work with, and most importantly she loved on our dog like he was her own. Cannot say enough good things about her!”
“Venessa has been walking MoMo for the past 3 months! She is the best and give MoMo such a great care! MoMo loves her! And she is so flexible and genuinely nice! We love her!”
“Katlyn & Ashley provided excellent care for my kitties! They kept us informed as to the shenanigans our boys got into while we were away and sent adorable pics 2x a day. I will most definitely book with K@A again!”
“Helen was great! Checked on my little fur baby and gave him lots of love. Definitely put my mind at ease while I was away. Would 1000% recommend her if you are looking for a pet sitter.”
“Daniel is my "go to" guy when I go out of town. He's punctual, conscientious, and doesn't hesitate to contact me when he has a question. I know my two cats are in good hands and that gives me peace of mind.”
About: I have experience with pup's big and small! Whether it's walking my girlfriend's reactive 80lb Pitbull, or making sure my 10lb cat is spoiled rotten, I have a lifetime of experience taking care of animals! I'll make sure your pup is the star of the show during our time together, sniff walks, enrichment or a leisurely stroll for an elderly friend, it's all in my wheelhouse! I have summer off from school so my days are wide open so I can make your pup my number one priority! Once I am back to school in September I will still be able to make time for your pup between homework and classes as I'm a full-time student which gives plenty of free time (don't tell my professors!) I have experience with aggressive and reactive dogs, so I am observant and ready to be a step ahead of any kind of trouble! I treat your pet like my own so safety is always my number one priority at all times, whether we are walking and move to the other side of the street if an unknown dog is approaching, or on high alert for E-bikes zooming down the path, your pet is always safe with me!
“Jovian was incredible. We were going out of town and had someone drop out of giving our senior kitty subcutaneous fluids the night before. Jovian immediately replied to us, came over, and successfully went through the process with us and our cat. She took care of our cat’s fluids very well while we were gone. She is thorough, was attentive and calm with our cat, is professional, and is communicative. We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her!”
“I can’t recommend Abby highly enough! She took care of my cat in the past, and she was incredibly caring, responsible, and trustworthy and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. My older cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes, and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to travel again because of his medical needs. He requires medication, so leaving him behind was a huge source of anxiety for me. He is also very shy and tends to hide from people, so I was especially worried about how he would react to someone else caring for him. Abby was so patient and gentle with him, and he really made significant progress with her. She was able to gain his trust enough to handle him and give him his medication, which was a huge relief for me. Managing a diabetic cat takes extra care and attention and Abby handled everything so well. If anything seemed off with him, she immediately notified me, stayed calm, and worked through the situation and even offered to come check on him again later in the evening to make sure he was okay. Knowing she was so attentive and willing to go the extra mile gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually enjoy my trip without constantly worrying. She also took wonderful care of my kitten and gave her much needed extra playtime and attention, which I really appreciated. My kitten loved Abby’s visits and it was so nice knowing both of my cats were getting the individual care and attention they needed. She sent me daily detailed and hilarious updates with pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved. The updates made me feel connected to my cats while I was away and gave me plenty of laughs along the way. Abby truly goes above and beyond, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves animals. I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with my cats. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, compassionate pet sitter, and I will definitely be rebooking with her again.”
About: I have always had dogs in my life, most recently our Dachshund who was with us for 16 years (and had the special qualities that come with weiner dogs 😁). I have also provided drop in petcare for dogs, and provided long-term in home pet sitting for families. I am a Kindergarten teacher who is taking some time off after 25 years. My career has required that I am reliable, caring, and patient. I also understand that your dog is your family member. You can feel confident that I will keep them safe and love them until you are home again! I look forward to meeting your furry family member! I have a flexible schedule during the week and spend my days at home so your dog will have a lot of company! I am available for walks, overnight boarding at my house (no pets, no kids, no smoking) or drop in visits to give your dog a break, food, exercise, or attention during the day... whatever your goal is for the visit. At my home I have a large yard and I also live next to beautiful trails and parks for walks. I would love to spend time outside being active with your dog. At your home, I am happy to learn your preferences regarding navigating coming in to care for your pet and what your goal is for the visit. In either scenario I will provide pictures and updates.
“Sarah was awesome with our pup, Zoey! They went for a nice walk which got Zoey all afternoon. She made sure water was refilled and Zoey was comfortable upon coming back home. We appreciate the pictures and the detailed feedback as well!”
“Nancy took great care of my two cats while I was out of town, including giving one of my cats medicine. She also kindly watered my plants! I will definitely be requesting her services again.”
“Thank you again Laney! You are always so patient with our dogs when it’s been awhile and they need some time to reacquaint themselves. We really appreciate you filling in the gaps our house sitter couldn’t cover.”

Xiuqi, is amazing! She was great with communication the entire time we were gone. My dogs are super needy and both have their own anxieties and she did great with both of them! She also went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed clean and nice. Would 100% rebook with her and the dogs loved her.
Elaina did an amazing job taking care of my senior blind dog while our family was out of town and I highly recommend her. She did drop in visits, and made sure my dog got food, walks, and pets. It was so nice to get the photos and updates and know our dog was being well taken care of while we were gone. Thanks Elaina!
Jamie was amazing!! This is our first time using Rover and we are so happy that we decided to try it out. Our two dogs and cat were so well taken care of when we went on vacation. Also love the fact that Jamie left a handful of pictures in the Rover Card for us to view after each one of her visits. Definitely will use Rover again and hope we can book Jamie the next time we go on vacation!
Katie is a dependable rockstar! She’s responsive, insightful, and takes that little extra step for your pet that gives you that peace of mind. For as long as I live close enough for her to be my sitter, I will be forever using her to watch my pup, and you should too!

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 Lynnwood 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.
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 Lynnwood 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 .
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 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 Lynnwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lynnwood. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
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.
