“We were so grateful to have Kory take care of our kitties again. Kory is always so sweet and kind, and we love receiving photos and thoughtful updates when we are out of town.”
“I feel so lucky to have found David to look after my very socially needy cat. I usually worry about her when I’m out of town, but knowing that he was checking in on her made me completely at ease. He is everything that you would want and more when it comes to a pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Michael was most helpful in facilitating my trip abroad over Memorial Day weekend. He was incredibly communicative and a friendly person, too. He dropped in to check on my cats and made sure that the house was well in order for when I returned. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have taken care of hundred of dogs over the last few years, ranging from 10 week old puppies to senior pups and I truly love getting to know each and every one of them. I currently have 3 pups of my own (Angus, Fergie and Logie) and pride myself on treating your pet, just like they are my own. I work from home full time doing pet care, I am with the dogs that come from daycare and overnight care 24/7, so your pets are never alone or left unattended while they are in my care. I have lots of experience walking dogs of all sizes, traveling to bring dogs to their furever home, and taking care of other animals in your home too, if needed for stop in visits. We have 3 dogs of our own, Angus, Fergie and Logie (don't worry they are all under 20lbs) but they love to play with each other and other dogs so your dogs get lots of energy out while they are here with me! My house is completely pet friendly and I always treat your dog just the way you tell me too! Our yard is huge, completely fenced in and secure in both the front and back, so no need to worry about them while you are away! I'm currently doing this as my full-time job so I will spend all day with them, giving them all the love they need and rightfully deserve! Fully fenced yard in both front and back, dogs can come and go inside and out as they please! When I walk your dog, I always make sure to enter and exit your house securely so the pet has no chance of escaping and double leash while I walk so they are always on a back up leash :)
“Kendra is a wonderful sitter!! She’s always on time, communicative and spends quality time with our dog. We feel he’s in great hands whenever we leave for a trip out of town.”
“Kaitlin was fantastic! She was very thorough during our meet & greet, asking all the right questions to ensure my pups were well taken care of. Great communication the entire time, & she was a natural with the dogs. I had peace of mind during my trip knowing she was dropping in on the pups! Highly recommend :)”
“Saint was great with Zoey when we needed a few drop-in visits while I had a busy work week and my partner was out of town. The pictures and frequent updates made us feel like we were there with them, and we know Zoey appreciated making a new friend to play fetch with. Saint communicated well with us throughout the entire process and made our first Rover experience a success. Will not hesitate to have him help take care of Zoey again.”
“Bevan was very good to my Cairo. Before we booked her, I was very clear with my Cairo’s needs & what we wanted on a sitter. We were looking for someone to regularly take care of Cairo every few months. We did a m&g and she asked very pertinent questions. We did the first drop in and everything went smoothly and fine. She’s very professional, seems very patient & like she knows what she’s doing. We’ve decided that we’re going to continue to book her regularly for Cairo’s care. I’m very appreciative of her.”
“Hattie has been such a wonderful dog sitter! She arrives promptly on time and is an expert at medication management with a fickle dog. I know my dogs are in good hands with Hattie.”
“Deyaneira was great with my dogs during the drop-in visit. Even my small, reactive, dog felt comfortable with Deyaneira right away. Both dogs enjoyed the visit and I hope to book with her again soon!”
“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!”
“Scott was great from the beginning. He communicated with me plenty before, during, and after his visit. He sent me pictures and let me know how my dog Harry did during his visit. Would definitely recommend!”
“Jeanne took great care of Merry! My kitty gets lonely. Jeanne held her and petted her and spoiled her. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter. I won’t use anyone else.”
“I am so happy to have found Arielle via Rover! She is a great communicator, on time, and takes great photos of her time with our little puppy, Chibi. Totally at ease with Arielle in our home or her taking her to her home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to another pet family.”
“Venessa was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! From the moment we met her, she was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure Pepper was comfortable and well taken care of while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions carefully, kept everything clean, and gave us so much peace of mind throughout the weekend. It’s clear she has a real love for animals, and Pepper was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and we truly appreciated the communication and reliability the entire time. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate Rover sitter!”
“Easy choice, would book again. Glad we picked Miranda to watch our shy little house panther. He warmed up to her better than most people and she kept an eye on everything we needed. It was great to have peace of mind while traveling.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Kali was responsive and flexible with scheduling which was very helpful since my travel plans changed last minute. She sent cute pictures which always gives me piece of mind and took time to brush and give Cleo her daily supplements. Thank you so much Kali!!!”

Jeanne was fantastic, starting all the way back at booking. She advertised availability for Labor Day weekend, and once we sent an inquiry, she was flexible and available for a meet and greet. Jeanne took excellent care of Potluck and took special care to note the routine our baby has. She was super communicative and even made sure to give Potluck a few extra special surprises over the weekend. Highly recommend Jeanne and would book again!
Phuong is very attentive and goes out of her way to ensure that my kitties are well taken care of. She is my go-to pet sitter and thus far I have been fortunate to have her pet sit each time I go out of town. She has mastered hide-and-seek with my skittish kitty, ensuring that she is found so she can eat her food before her brother eats both their meals. I always feel good about leaving town when Phuong is watching my fur babies.
Zoe was awesome with my cats and took care of them very well. She was on time and followed the instructions. Her check in notes and prompt communication helped me feel relieved when I was away for a week. I highly recommend Zoe. She is punctual and diligent with her cat sitting service.
Catie did an amazing job taking care of my cat Kitty while I was out of town for a week. She was reliable, attentive, and very caring throughout the entire week. She followed instructions closely, never missed a scheduled visit, and always provided detailed updates and pictures. She also went above and beyond to ensure Kitty stayed in a comfortable environment. It was reassuring knowing Kitty was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Catie to anyone looking for a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter!
Chloe took wonderful care of our cats and kept us up to date with pictures of them playing and descriptions of them while we were away. She was easy to communicate with, prompt in responses, loving to the kitties and took great care of our space. Definitely would recommend her as a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.
I can’t recommend Abby highly enough! She took care of my cat in the past, and she was incredibly caring, responsible, and trustworthy and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. My older cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes, and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to travel again because of his medical needs. He requires medication, so leaving him behind was a huge source of anxiety for me. He is also very shy and tends to hide from people, so I was especially worried about how he would react to someone else caring for him. Abby was so patient and gentle with him, and he really made significant progress with her. She was able to gain his trust enough to handle him and give him his medication, which was a huge relief for me. Managing a diabetic cat takes extra care and attention and Abby handled everything so well. If anything seemed off with him, she immediately notified me, stayed calm, and worked through the situation and even offered to come check on him again later in the evening to make sure he was okay. Knowing she was so attentive and willing to go the extra mile gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually enjoy my trip without constantly worrying. She also took wonderful care of my kitten and gave her much needed extra playtime and attention, which I really appreciated. My kitten loved Abby’s visits and it was so nice knowing both of my cats were getting the individual care and attention they needed. She sent me daily detailed and hilarious updates with pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved. The updates made me feel connected to my cats while I was away and gave me plenty of laughs along the way. Abby truly goes above and beyond, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves animals. I’m so grateful to have someone I can trust with my cats. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, compassionate pet sitter, and I will definitely be rebooking with her again.

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 11,509 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mountlake Terrace. 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 Mountlake Terrace 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 Mountlake Terrace. 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.
