“I have a 13 yo German Wire Haired pointer that due to arthritis is not able to accompany me anymore on long day trips. For the first time, and with no small amount of anxiety, I left him in the care of Hattie for a drop in visit mid-day and a walk. She was kind, caring, prompt and provided photos and a “report” of the walk so that I could enjoy my day away and know my dog was well cared for! Merry Christmas to me!”
“Shannon is great, very easy to work with and she took great care Mylo while I was out of town. I very much appreciate her help. I would definitely recommend her, but the only issue is if you book her you might take time away when I need her again. 🤔 Just kidding book her if you need her help! 😂”
“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.”
“Tony is amazing. I am usually not home when she visits our dog, but the few times I have been I see how my dog's face lights up when she comes to the door. She sends me pics and let's me know how my dog is doing every day, and I am so thankful that she takes such great care of my girl. I know she cares for her like her own. ”
“Alyssa did a great job watching our two cats for a week. She sent pics for every visit and one of our cats had an immediate connection to her. She is very punctual. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her over again. She also helped us out by feeding our fish. Thank you, Alyssa!”
“Hanyu was wonderful with Simba! She was very attentive, followed all of his instructions, and made me feel completely comfortable having her care for him. Simba seemed happy and well cared for, and I really appreciated the updates while she was with him. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly great with dogs. We’re so happy to have found her and would definitely recommend her! 😊”
About: Hi, I’m Wendy a former professional groomer and current Law student, now your reliable pet sitter! I'm calm and confident with dogs, cats, and small pets, from shy and nervous to senior. I notice changes early, like skin, ears, paws, appetite, or litter habits, and tell you right away. I follow your routine and medication instructions exactly, send photo updates, and keep your pet and home safe and secure. Free meet-and-greet before any booking. Serving Edmonds, Lynnwood, Shoreline, and Seattle. I’m currently a full time college student but all my classes are online fall quarter. So my availability is pretty open. I will have to be home at 6 AM Monday through Friday to get my teen to school but can return after she us at school. Safety comes first. I follow your instructions exactly, keep pets leashed or securely contained, and double-check doors, gates, and latches. I care for pets in their own home, where they're most comfortable, and keep your home secure and tidy. I am willing and able to care for adult, senior and baby pets and will send photo updates, tell you right away about any concern, and always do a free meet-and-greet first. I keep your vet's contact info on hand for every visit.
About: I've always loved dogs and cats, having helped friends watch their pets whenever they need a hand. I have a goldendoodle of my own at home, so I'm great with the high energy pups but I'm just as happy keeping things calm and sticking to a regular routine for most. From the energetic to the shy, I can adapt to different needs and personalities. Communication is important to me, and you can expect timely responses and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I would appreciate if you could let me know in advance the quirks, fears, or anything else that I should be aware of about your pet. I'm home full-time and have a flexible schedule. I will have plenty of time to keep your pet company and give personalized attention throughout the day. Located in Lynnwood, I live in a pet-friendly apartment community. I could take dogs on walks around our neighborhood or visit nearby green spaces.
About: Nothing special here. Just always had dogs and would like to work with them. Currently raising a puppy i have had since she was 7 weeks old. My schedule is completely open. Whenever you need help with your dog, i am available, willing, and happy to help you with your family pet. I have a large open living room with hardwood flooring. Yard is not fenced in yet so your pets would be taken out on leash. my puppy is very friendly and would be great company for your pet.
About: Hi, I'm Leah, and as you might have guessed, I am a huge pet lover! I've been incredibly lucky to be surrounded by sweet furry friends my entire life - growing up with everything from dogs and cats to iguanas and birds - and I have adored every single one of them. As an adult, I raised an adorable corgi and currently share my home with two sweet black cats. I hold a very special place in my heart for senior pets and for those who need a little extra love & care. My beloved corgi, Bamboo, who has since crossed the rainbow bridge, had Degenerative Myelopathy (DM). Caring for him taught me so much about keeping pups cozy, happy, and comfortable. I truly miss him and miss having a dog in my life, so walking and looking after yours would bring me so much joy! I'm also a very proud cat mom to two precious black kitties who have taught me so much. My senior cat, Kanga, has Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC), which has made me well-versed in creating peaceful, stress-free environments for our feline friends. My other kitty, Kiwi, has asthma, so I'm completely comfortable administering medications, including inhalers and oral treatments. Since I'm self-employed as an artist, my schedule is wonderfully flexible and I'd love to chat about how I can help. If you happen to be looking for a house-sitter, I would truly love to help you out. I'm available for quick stays of 2 to 4 days at a time. I look forward to hearing from you, and tell your furry friend I said hi, too 🖤 Since I work from home as an artist, my schedule is wonderfully flexible! I can easily adjust my time to fit whatever works best for you and your pet. If I stay at your home, I'll be there to keep your furry friend company throughout most of the day since my work travels with me. Please rest assured that I will deeply respect your space, follow all of your household rules, and keep everything safe and secure (like food that is toxic to pets). I love building a bond of trust with pets by letting them set the pace for interactions.
“Dylan watched our cat Pickles while we were gone for a weekend. My cat, who is usually a very shy one, opened right up to him! My boyfriend and I were so pleasantly surprised and very happy with Dylan’s care of our beloved chonky cat. we highly recommend his service.”
“Arielle took excellent care of our three month old puppy, and we’d recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter to check in on their pets! She provided updates and provided photos. We’d definitely book with her again!”
“We love Karen and so do our boys!! She always lets us know how the dogs are doing and sends pics, which is really nice when we are away and missing them. She also takes care of our leopard gecko! Our power went out while we were away and she reached out to us to trouble shoot best how to keep him warm while his heat lamps were out. We trust her and always know our boys are being loved and well cared for while we are gone. Thank you as always Karen!!”
About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and have always had a passion for caring for them. I currently have two cats of my own, and I’ve spent years rescuing and helping cats in need. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I provide patient, loving care so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals, and I make sure to set aside dedicated time for feeding, playtime, cleaning, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. Since I have two cats of my own, caring for pets is already a regular part of my life, and I would love to include caring for your pets in my weekly routine as well. I care for pets in my clients’ homes by keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow their feeding schedules, litter box or cleanup routines, medication instructions, and any special care preferences. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would want for my own.
“Kyle Helped us, again! Taking care of our pup on late notice (and she has loved him from the first time they met). He even got our delivery and stocked the freezer with our dogs’ food - And was willing to help get our garbage bins out, while we were away. We are Tremendously Grateful for you Kyle!”

Sam was fantastic with our kitty! She followed all of our instructions and our kitty clearly loved all the attention she gave him. She was flexible when our schedule changed last minute and really helped us out in a pinch. We’re already looking forward to her next stay with him!
Emily is amazing!! She took excellent care of my 3 kitties again. I really appreciate her notes on each visit - the details make me feel like I'm there with them 😍 She even got my very shy cat out of hiding, and purring with pets 😍 My cats were very well taken care of and happy when I got back! I will definitely book her again and highly recommend her!
Amy was the most amazing cat sitter! She did an outstanding job taking care of our two kitties while we were out of town for 10 days. I was so impressed by her attention to detail and the amount of effort she put into taking care of our cats. Our cats are extremely shy, but Amy was able to earn their trust and get them to come out of hiding! I highly recommend Amy, and I will definitely be using her to look after our cats again in the future!
Kyra continues to be a reliable and compassionate provider for us. She goes well above and beyond often without me even asking. She is flexible and understanding. She sends notes and lots of pictures. I feel like she truly cares about our kitties. She has cared for our kitties multiple times and she is always my first choice. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lynnwood is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $42 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 11,262 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lynnwood. 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 Lynnwood. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
