“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! 😂”
“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!”
“Thank you for taking care of my two bunnies, Tiffany! The fact that my usually very scared and shy rabbits came out to see you must mean they are very comfortable with you! They can really sense who the animal lovers are! I am looking forward to having you back!”
“Anna has been so wonderful helping me out on a few of my longer days I’ve had come up while raising my lil puppy! Anna has been so nice, professional and caring with my pup, and super responsive. Couldn’t have found a better person!”
“So glad to have found Emma to care for our two cats. Her communication is impeccable! The photos during her visit also show a very comfortable and social side to our cats. She also helps keep their litter trails cleaned up which it is so nice to come home to clean floors after traveling! Highly recommend!”

“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!”
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: I have many years of experience caring for animals. My own dogs are very old and no longer enjoy walks so I started walking dogs in my neighborhood. I have a knack for calming reactionary dogs and nervous walkers. I enjoy every animal, especially the challenging ones. Pet sitting, playing with dogs, taking walks, what could be better than that? It truly is a passion. I am a retired Mother of 3 whose children are all grown up. Aside from helping my elderly Mother and walking my neighbor's dog my schedule is wide open. I can provide pet sitting in your home including overnights. Don't let my age fool you! I am high energy and walk many miles a day. 10 years ago I hired a family member to stay with my pets for 2 weeks. It was the first time I trusted someone to watch my animals. The first time I had been away from my dog. I couldn't get a hold of her so I sent someone over to check on them on the 3rd day. There was a gigantic pile of dog food on the floor and feces and urine everywhere. My poor dog was entirely alone and one of my cats was missing. I was devastated when we came home to discover my cat had passed away from being locked in a hot garage. that was the last time we took a vacation without our pets along. All this to say I know how important it is to have trustworthy pet care and I pride myself on providing it. I also recognize the importance of communication between client and provider.
“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!”
“Gail has been a great sitter for my two dogs. She has been reliable and friendly and you can tell she also cares for and enjoys my animals. I would highly recommend working with Gail on any dog sitting needs.”
“Kendra is wonderful and we never have to worry when we leave our dog and kittens with her. We know she’s reliable and takes excellent care of them while we’re out of town.”
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!
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, from smaller, Formosan mountain dog mixes and Pomeranians, to large American bully/pitbull mixes. I have also taken care of dogs of all ages, from golden retriever puppies to senior dogs with medication needs. While I'm taking care of your best friend, they will have their unique needs met and their need for companionship fulfilled until your return. I'm currently in-between jobs, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Overnight care, odd hours, and long walks are all in the scope of my care. I bring a slow, trusting approach to working with your pet. As I work with your pet to address their needs, we'll learn each others tendencies and become more and more comfortable with each other, helping them feel safe and comfortable throughout my stint.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lynnwood
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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
