“Nathan did a great job caring for our special needs dog. He was careful to follow instructions and was very communicative. We will not hesitate to use Nathan for services in the future.”
“The last 8 weeks have been wonderful. Your interactions with Lexi, the kindness you have shown me, have been a godsend. Lexi starts laying by the front door at noon, in anticipation of your drop-in. She is more playful and affectionate and we are both looking forward to many more visits!!”
“Bethany took excellent care of our two cats while we were out of town for the holidays. She was sweet and caring and provided helpful updates regarding the kitties. I would book Bethany again.”
“Sherri was such a blessing to have for our senior pup. He warmed up to her right away and enjoyed her company through a week of check-ins. We could not be happier in our choice to have Sherri as our sitter and would have her again in a moments notice. She was prompt, professional, easy to work with, and most importantly she loved on our dog like he was her own. Cannot say enough good things about her!”
About: Hello animal lovers! I grew up with dogs. First was a Golden Retriever then several Old English Mastiffs to follow. I adore big dogs and know they are gentle giants. I also adore "smaller dogs" too, those under 125lbs (ha!) I have been dog sitting on and off for about 15 years. About me, I'm responsible, mature, reliable and fun, your dog will love me. I'm happy to play fetch or snuggle your pooch, whatever is best for them. I am a care taker by trade so your pup will be in good hands. I am able to spend most of the day with your pup on longer stays. I am looking forward to meeting you and your dog soon! Pet care is my main job right now so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet whether at home or on a walk. I cannot currently board pets or do doggy day care but am happy to come to your home to care for any of your pets.
About: *TAKING NEW CLIENTS* Devoting more time to this practice that I love, the more pets the merrier! Experienced with dogs who have behavioral issues or are just nervous around new people, puppies bring them on, and everything in between. I am a sensitive empath who truly loves / cares about all animals and animals flock to me where they may normally run away or act out. I am adaptable and always want to customize the experience of your specific needs and welcome any and all specific instructions, or if you are a newer pet owner or Rover user, I am always available to provide advice or insight even if you are not booking with me, at the end of the day I am here to help your pets / you and to make your lives a little easier. Recently I have been able to open up my schedule to take on a more full time Commitment to dog walks and drop ins. I have open availability from 7am-11pm and can provide multiple services throughout the day. If your pocket books are strapped and you still want experienced help, I am open to negotiation on my prices (within reason). I understand how expensive it is just to live these days. Life comes with many stresses, but I can guarantee if you take me on as your animal care provider that your pets safety/well being will never be one of them while in my care. *in your home only* due to having 4 animals of my own. I can come every 4 hours throughout the night and as often as every 2.5 hrs during the day. I listen to instructions very well and would follow specific routines accordingly. The more details , the better so I can maintain their normal routine. Other wise just like my own, I would play tug of war or cuddle or fetch or give them space/ whatever they may need.
About: I love dogs and I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't. I do my best to make sure your dog is safe and well taken care of. I'm currently working part-time from home or remotely, so I have plenty of time to pamper, play, pet your pooches to the level they want. My drop in I will make sure they get greeted with love, praise, and pets if they want. Make sure they have enough water and food. Take them out to relieve themselves if needed.
“Sarah was so wonderful with my seven month old puppy. Sarah was exceptional - she was reliable, knowledgeable, and kind hearted. You can tell she’s an animal person! Kovah loved her time with Sarah and her detailed notes were appreciated. We would definitely love to work with her again. Highly recommend Sarah for any of your pet sitting needs!”
About: I have done pet sitting since I was 12. I have lots of practice with giving animals all types of medicine: eye drops, pills, and oral doses. I have three cats and a senior dog at home, so I understand what it means to leave the house as a pet parent. I have all the patience and time to take care of your senior animals, but also young ones, as I even have experience giving kittens milk. No matter what animal and what age, I would love to care for your pet babies! I am currently available on the weekdays in the mornings before 8 AM and the afternoons after 5 PM. I am available any time on the weekends! While I have a fenced in yard, I usually walk my dog, and can do the same for yours. If you feel more comfortable, I can also crate them when they are home alone. Every visit, I make sure I see every pet and that they received their food, water, potty break and medicine.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and many more pets my entire life. I consider pets as part of the family and love them so much! I have been involved in animal rescue and rehabilitation since I was 10 years old. I have multiple years of experience caring for dogs and cats, and other pets. I have even cared for medically complicated dogs and cats. I have experiencing with animals that have had diabetes, heart disease, muscular skeletal disease, and many more ailments. I am very comfortable with administering medication. Currently my dog has epilepsy so I understand and empathize with the extra love and care required when treating medical conditions. I love animals more than anything, and love to care for them. My schedule is open during weekdays. Sometimes I am able to be available on weekends with enough of a notice. Please just let me know! I have a fenced in backyard and have multiple leashes, poop bags and other pet care tools of my own, that I always keep on hand.
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.

About: I've been responsible for pets since age 10. Cleaning litter boxes, walking dogs, playing fetch, refilling food dishes, and being a patient, gentle, attentive owner who reciprocates unconditionally love. Now, at age 30, I've gained a deep understanding of cats and dogs, raised many from kittens and puppies, and have parented them through full, happy lives. I work a part time job as a home designer in Seattle, only about three days a week, 15-20 hours, usually mornings. I have plenty of time for pet care most evenings and my weekends are always free. Please give me a few days notice for weekday pet care so we can work around my schedule. I live in a spacious apartment with one roommate who is also very gentle and loving toward animals. We keep our areas tidy and our food secured in high up cupboards and in the fridge. I live in the master bedroom and keep my door open and my floor clean as well. There are comfy couches and a queen bed if you'd like your pet to have free reign on furniture. There is also a large, open grass field just a five minute walk from my apartment for dogs to run around and play.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mukilteo
Chelsea was a fantastic sitter for our two cats during our first trip away from home without them. She was very communicative and excellent with our furry children. We quite enjoyed reading the daily updates and seeing the pictures she took of our boys. We would highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a great pet sitter. 10/10 would book again. Thank you, Chelsea!!
We can’t say enough good things about Michelle. She was amazing with our cats. She responded quickly to communication, and sent us daily photos while we were gone for 10 days, which warmed our hearts. We will absolutely love to work with Michelle again, and look forward to her, taking care of our kitties in the future. Big hugs to Michelle.
Wendy was awesome with my dogs this weekend! I could tell right away they were comfortable with her, and it was nice being able to relax knowing they were being well taken care of. She’s dependable, easy to work with, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Wendy again next time I need a sitter!
Heather is such a great cat sitter! Somehow she always turns my chaotic cat into a ball of purrs when she arrives, and goes above and beyond taking care of small unexpected tasks (like sweeping cat litter and throwing away the moldy bread I accidentally left out!). She's been my go-to sitter for over a year and I'm never worried anymore about leaving my cat when I travel!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mukilteo is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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 10,719 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mukilteo. 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 Mukilteo. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
