About: Hi! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a dog taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing a loving environment for pets. I’m an active, dependable person who enjoys long walks and spending time outdoors on walking trails, so making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention comes naturally to me. Whether your pup loves a leisurely stroll or has lots of energy to burn, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while they’re with me. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Pet care fits very well into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. This allows me to provide reliable care, accommodate last-minute bookings when possible, and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I unfortunately do not have a yard at my residence but I am more than happy to take care of your furry friends on your home
About: If you're heading out of town, feeling overwhelmed, or just need a trustworthy hand to care for your pet, I'm here to help! I offer devoted and compassionate dog walking and boarding services, bringing years of experience from caring for the beloved pets of friends and roommates. My approach is always caring and full of enthusiasm, ensuring every walk and staycation is a joyful experience for your dog. As a nature lover, I visit parks daily and take frequent walks, so your dog will enjoy plenty of outdoor fun. Your dog's happiness and well-being are my top priorities as we explore together. I have a soft spot for senior pups, providing them with the extra gentle care and cuddles they deserve. I only board one dog at a time so I can devote all the attention and care to them. Plus, I love sharing photo updates of our adventures, so you'll never miss a moment! **All boardings must be on flea and tick prevention** I work from home and have a flexible schedule to be able to take multiple walks a day and cuddle your sweet dog during the day. I only house one dog at a time to make sure I can provide undivided attention and ensure the safety of your pet. I do request an initial meeting with your pup before boarding and walking for the first time. Please note your pet must be on flea protection or some kind.
About: I truly love dogs and having the opportunity to meet and care for a new pets is such a great privilege to me I volunteer at many shelters so I do this on my extra time. I have experience dealing with many different personalities of animals and many different sizes of animals and I hold a special relationship with each pet that I have the opportunity spending time with . They never fail to smile and never do I . Any pet will always be treated like family ! What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and care while keeping their owners updated for peace of mind. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home! 🐾❤️ I am a remote college student so my schedule is very lenient and flexible. I can fix my schedule as well and can accommodate at anytime. I’m always around the animal so I would always adhere to any need that they need and I will always be attentive with them possibly just doing any activity or just playing with them, but I wouldn’t lose sight of them .
“Nick was communicative, reliable, and thorough. He spent time playing with my cat and seemed so caring and attentive! Would definitely recommend for cat visits!”
About: I've always been a pet person. Whether it's at the park, at family/friends homes, or even out and about, I've always gravitated to my community's adorable companions. I've been pet sitting since the age of 9, and ive had experience rescuing/fostering puppies/dogs, kittens/cats, and even a squirrel! I love animals, and I believe they deserve the same love and care we humans do. I am currently a college student studying online, so I have lots of free time! I typically like to spend quality time with my family pets in my free time, but I would love to share the love and support! Pet safety and health are my #1 priority. Routines, diets, and hygiene/maintinence are a non-negotiable for me as a caregiver. I also prioritize showing all spaces the utmost respect, so cleanliness and communication also are big factors in my caregiving process.
“Jon and his fiancee were so wonderful! They came in clutch last minute, and were super communicative, thoughtful, and sweet to our pup. Will absolutely book with them again!”
“Mia is amazing!! So glad to know her! She is so great to work with and I feel like my cat is in wonderful hands. I hope she is available for my next trip.”
About: I have experience with both large dogs, small dogs cats and caged pets. I have fostered litters of dogs and cats a few times in the past. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Please reach out if curious, I am willing to work to accommodate you and your pets schedule. I would love to spoil your fur baby! I am flexible with my schedule, I am available every day starting at 4pm. I’m happy to provide care on weekends and nights as well. I live in a home with an unfenced yard in a suburban area in DC. There are plenty of areas for walking that are low traffic. I have 2 friendly cats who are happy to interact with your pets.
“Jose was responsive in communicating both before and during the booking. He offered to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, which I really appreciated given the short time frame. He was attentive to the details, and took great care of my cat Olive. I would book him again.”
“Kristina, was above and beyond with Max! This was our first time leaving Max with someone else and I loved the great communication, pictures, and I felt at ease with her work! Thank you for everything!!”
“Pascaline is a happy, outgoing person, and my small, somewhat shy dog took to her right away. Pascaline was able to “read” Zena and her need for calm and gentleness as well as a kind spirit. She kept us informed and included photos. I returned to a very happy little dog. Will request her services again!”
“Asha was incredible with my cat Phoebe! She made sure to give her plenty of attention and cuddles during her visits. Would highly recommend and will definitely rebook with Asha in the future.”
“Allison is great! It’s so nice having a cat lover take care of our cat while we’re away! We know he’s in good hands with her! And she gets great pictures of him :)”
“Obuchi provided excellent care for our cat while we were away. Our normally timid kitty seemed to be very drawn to her. Obuchi went above and beyond to make Ginger feel safe and us to feel secure. I would highly recommend her and would book with her in the future.”
“Venus was fantastic to have over. She took great care of our cats, was friendly, polite, and very communicative and we couldn't have been happier with her effort.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Rainier
Abigail is hands down the best pet-sitter that we've ever had. We have three cats, two of which I'd describe as being skittish (though non-harmful). By day two, both of those cats were comfortable with Abby! Typically, I tell pet-sitters that those cats may hide the entire time, but that was not the case this time--both cats seemed to hang around her, actively and happily anticipating her visit. When we arrived home, my cats were none the wiser of and clearly had not experienced any anxiety in our absence. It is an immense relief to experience that as a pet-owner and can say that I will continue to book Abby as long as she's available!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mount Rainier is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 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 November 2026, there are 17,001 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mount Rainier. 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 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 Mount Rainier. On Rover:
- 85% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
