House Sitting Mountain View

“All the wonderful comments about Anthea were validated in our first experience having her stay in our home to care for our aging kitty. Anthea took wonderful care of our girl, who is extremely timid and shy. Anthea gained trust to the point of being able to give her meds and provided thoughtful insight about her care. As others have noted, Anthea is extremely knowledgeable about pets (and many other things). Our home was left in pristine condition. As retirees who enjoy travelling, but are always concerned about leaving our precious girl by herself, Anthea was the perfect solution. We highly recommend Anthea for your pet care needs!”

“Imani was super communicative and asked so many great questions during our meet and greet, showing that she clearly understands dogs! Our dog can be a little difficult to handle on walks and Imani was patient and sent us so many fun updates. I would recommend her to anyone, and will be booking her again!”

“Erin was wondering! Very accommodating and responsive. Clearly read through our instructions and sent photos throughout her stay. Will definitely be using again!”

“Kristen was a thorough and prompt communicator and awesome with our critters! Our anxious dog and cat warmed up to her quickly and she was able to navigate a troublesome toilet issue while we were gone. She is great and we appreciated her house sitting!”

About: I'm a mom to two cats, Schneider and Stormy, and I'm just as at home with dogs. I've cared for pups of all sizes and energy levels, from leash-pullers to couch potatoes. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible and I'm never rushing out the door. Beyond the basics (food, water, walks, meds exactly as you like them), I always set aside time to just play with your pet. Every furry cuties I get to meet feels like a little stroke of luck, and I want them to have a genuinely fun time with me. I'm also into journaling and photography. I'm a bit obsessed with catching cute pet moments on camera, so fair warning: you might get a LOT of photos. Hope you don't mind! 😉 I work freelance, so my schedule is pretty flexible on both weekdays and weekends. I'm not squeezing your pet in between other commitments, so I can show up on time, stay a bit longer, and actually hang out instead of rushing off. Just let me know what works for you! Currently I only do drop-in visits, so your pet gets to stay in their own comfy space. I'll follow your routine, and after each visit I'll log what I did and how your pet was doing: meals, potty, playtime, and their energy level. Safety-wise, doors stay locked, windows and gates get double-checked, and leashes are always on for walks. I'll keep your vet and emergency contacts handy, and if anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away.

“Erika and Cristopher were absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Kailo & Kiara. We received lots of pictures and thoughtful updates every day, which helped us feel completely at ease while traveling. When we came home, the house was immaculately clean and the dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly well‑cared for. They went above and beyond in every way, and we’re so grateful for the care and attention they gave our pups. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, kind, and attentive sitters.”

“Skyler was absolutely amazing with my GSD who wasn't so sure about letting someone new into the house even after meeting her. He was still skeptical about it. However she worked amazing with him and they became friends. I will definitely use her again in the future”

Casandera H.

“Mya was on time and followed all instructions. She was comfortable feeding a raw diet and with walks. I enjoyed getting pictures and she responded to text promptly.”

“Ren was great with our 2 dogs. We booked on pretty short notice and everything still went very smoothly. Our dogs seemed very happy in pics Ren sent while we were gone and when we returned. She took great care of the house, too! Very pleasant and professional, we'll definitely book her again.”

“We highly recommend Cora to watch your fuzzballs. She showed up on time, was communicative, sent updates, and the puppy was very happy when we got home. Thanks Cora!”

About: Hi there! I'm new to Rover, but have been housesitting regularly since December 2024. I've had the opportunity to pet sit in Australia and throughout New Zealand with dogs and cats of various breeds and ages. I have also looked after fish and chickens. My experience ranges from caring for young puppies and kittens to older animals with health issues, including pets with arthritis, heart issues, IBD, and asmtha. I'm very diligent about managing any medication or supplements required. In the past, I've had two dogs as my own pets. One was a miniature schnauzer and the other was a mixed breed rescue. Throughout the years, I've pet sat for friends and family as well. I always love getting to know new animals and enjoy taking care of a home and any plants you may have. :) I work remotely and have a fairly flexible schedule, so I will have plenty of time to stay in with your pets and make sure they are cared for and happy. *Currently, I am fully booked for housesitting until the beginning of February. If you are interested in booking for your 2027 travel, feel free to send me a message to schedule a meet and greet. I do also offer dog walking or drop-in visits for other clients from about noon to 2 pm, so this would be a time that I may be away from the house. To ensure a good fit, I offer a 30 minute Meet & Greet prior to booking. All bookings include frequent updates and photos for your peace of mind. I am happy to have your fur babies as my close companions or give them more space if they prefer. My goal is make sure they are safe and comfortable while their family is away.

About: I’ve had pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, birds, and invertebrates. I’ve also worked at a pet store for the last year and a half so I have some knowledge on freshwater fish as well as experience administering medications to animals. I’m currently only working part time, about 12-18 hours a week, so I have more than enough time to check on and play with your pets! I’m super flexible and want to do anything I can to make sure your pets are as comfortable and happy as they possibly can be while their humans aren’t home!

“Judas did an amazing job with our dogs! One of them got sick right before we left, and Judas was willing to provide the extra care he needed and he did so very lovingly. He handled extra medications and the quirks of our dogs so well, and won over the heart of our shy, anxious boy. He was a great communicator as well! Can’t recommend Judas enough, we knew our boys were in great hands which is always such a relief.”

“Renee continues do a great job with Hugo. He always has so much fun with her. She sends regular updates on his activities via the Rover app. She's also very professional, personable, and punctual. I plan to continue to seek her services with Hugo.”

“Caitlin was wonderful at caring for my dog while I was out of town for a work trip. She would send me updates and made sure to communicate on the regular. I was so grateful to have her caring for Kiva”

Nichole L.

“Jung is very kind and communicative! She was so understanding of changes in my schedule and was flexible with dates. She communicated any questions or concerns quickly and efficiently. My kitties loved her, even my shy kitty would make an appearance. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have always had animals in my life; from cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, ferrets, the list goes on. My love for animals is immeasurable and I love spending my time helping others in need and getting to spend time with their fur babies. I’ve been watching friends’, family, and even co-workers’ animals for over 10 years. I am currently traveling with my husband while he works so I have plenty of free time in our new apartment in Camas, WA. We stay in a safe location and have ample space for nice, long walks as well as plenty of toys to keep your pup entertained! Just outside of our two bedroom apartment, I have a grassed area where my dogs love playing and enjoying the outdoors. My dogs love having friends over to run around and play with.

“Sarah was great with our 2 crazy dogs!”
