“Maria is very dependable, attentive and caring. She kept our little guy company and took him on walks. He seemed very happy when we returned. Excellent service, job well done!”
“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 grew up with both cats and dogs, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve spent years feeding them, taking them on walks, cleaning their litter boxes, keeping their spaces tidy, and making sure they get plenty of playtime and affection. I currently have two kitties of my own, and they’re like my babies. I’ll care for your fur babies with the same love, attention, and patience I give mine, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule during the week, which gives me flexibility to fit pet care into my schedule. I’m able to stop by for visits, give attention, playtime, and keep your pets’ routines consistent while you’re away. I’m also available on weekends so whether you need help during the work week or extra support on Saturdays and Sundays, I can make it work smoothly for you and your pets. I care for my client’s pets like they’re my own. I’m attentive to their needs - consistent feeding based on their routine, fresh water, and clean litter boxes and living area. I will make sure that they are cared for with lots of love and attention to keep them happy, comfy, and thriving.
“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.”
“Six out of five stars for this individual who has looked over my Precious Pup and taking so good care of them she really really cares about animals that's the most important constantly communicates with me constantly updates me sends me pictures she is the perfect dog sitter the perfect person for your animal trust me”
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.
“Anna was amazing with our 10 week old golden retriever puppy! After our meet and greet I felt at ease knowing she would be checking in with our pup! She played lots with him and shared great photos! We will be asking to have her check in lots!”
“Alyssa checked on our kitties while we were out of the country for a month. She is a very responsible, reliable, and caring person. We greatly appreciate that our babies were taken care of. We highly recommend Alyssa! Thank you so much!!!”
“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!”
“Angel, yes she’s my new earth angel for me and my senior dog who is basically like my child. I have not needed a baby sitter in over 12 years of having my dog, but circumstances have changed and I was forced into finding someone new to watch my baby as I had to go to a wedding. In comes Angel to save the day. I have never left my dog with anyone other than my ex so was soooo nervous and scared to use a service to find someone that I didn’t know, but I saw Angelica’s reviews and took a leap of faith. I’m so grateful I did too! This is new for my dog too so he was barking and I was feeling so bad about it. She made me feel ok and was sweet about it and went above and beyond giving my little guy his meds and spent time with him even tho he was barking like crazy. I feel so relieved to have found you and will definitely be hiring you again if you don’t mind watching him again that is!”
“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. 😊”
“Tony is incredibly kind and our good girl just loves her! She has been doing daily drop-ins for us for several years. She is diligent about sending updates during the day and is quick to respond to my communications. I would highly recommend Tony to any pet parent!”
“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! 😊”
“Was so responsive, and able to come on short notice. I really appreciated how thoughtful she was and taking the time to tend to my "COVID doggies" who aren't used to me being gone all day.”
“Absolutely phenomenal. Aimee embodies exactly what we wanted for a drop-in Rover: trustworthy, caring, spectacular communication, prompt, leaves the place as clean (or cleaner!) than she found it, and loves our canines like they're her own.”
“Heather has been a great help to us as Oliver’s regular sitter. Oliver had gone through some health challenges and Heather has supported him and spent time with him when he needed it most as well as helped with medications when he needed them.”

Pet 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.
It was nice to have someone we could trust to watch over the fur babies for a few hours. Tony was available last minute and she helped us by breaking up a day in half where otherwise Bailey and Roo would have been left alone for too long. Tony is a good communicator! 💜
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! 😊
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.
Maria is wonderful. Extremely professional, extremely communicative, just the kind of pet sitter who eliminates the stress you otherwise have when travelling and leaving your pets at home. I made the reservation through my Rover account, but Maria went above and beyond to also send info & updates to my partner so that my partner could have visibility, which she appreciated so much.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lynnwood on Rover is $22.47 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 11,391 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lynnwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
