“Penny took great care of both our cats. She asked all the right questions so it was clear I was dealing with an experienced professional. She also took lots of super cute pictures.”
“This was Cedric's second time sitting for us and already my spicy/shy girl has taken to him. Cedric is reliable, kind, and dependable. I forgot to remind him to leave our key fob, but he remembered the drill! I definitely recommend Cedric if you are looking for a fantastic pet sitter.”
“Michelle is wonderful! She was able to check on our elderly dog last minute when our regular boarding place pulled out. Not only did she take excellent care of our dog, but she sent us thorough updates, made sure our flights weren't delayed, and really just went above and beyond.”
About: I have nearly a decade of pet care experience with all kinds of animals of all ages, sociability levels, and abilities. I can exercise pets however they prefer, administer medications, follow special feeding/diet instructions, bathe pets, and provide specialized care for senior or disabled pets. I have a part-time remote job with no set hours, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am happy to accommodate any schedule preferences or last minute changes. Because I live in an apartment, I can only provide pet-sitting service in clients’ homes at this time. I have cared for pets in several homes, and I highly prioritize trust and care of my clients’ homes. I am also more than happy to do light housekeeping tasks while caring for your pet to ensure you come back to a clean home, like vacuuming, sweeping, dusting, watering plants, etc.
“My boyfriend and my work schedule is super sporadic and random. Oftentimes we need to message Jodie same day. She is ALWAYS so responsive and consistent in getting back to us. She really saves us on busy days. She also is amazing with our dog, Lincoln. I would recommend her to anyone in the Snohomish county area”
“Kaitlyn was amazing with my senior dog, Coco! She was always on time (often early) for the drop-in visits and sent detailed updates each time. I’ll definitely be booking Kaitlyn again for future drop-ins or overnight stays!”
“Had such a great experience with Yomna, she looked after our 2, high maintenance, dogs. They were so happy when she would show up as well as us knowing they had someone caring to look after them. She gave us such peace of mind with her communication and updates. Would love to have her watch our pups again!”
About: I have always had dogs in my life, most recently our Dachshund who was with us for 16 years (and had the special qualities that come with weiner dogs 😁). I have also provided drop in petcare for dogs, and provided long-term in home pet sitting for families. I am a Kindergarten teacher who is taking some time off after 25 years. My career has required that I am reliable, caring, and patient. I also understand that your dog is your family member. You can feel confident that I will keep them safe and love them until you are home again! I look forward to meeting your furry family member! I have a flexible schedule during the week and spend my days at home so your dog will have a lot of company! I am available for walks, overnight boarding at my house (no pets, no kids, no smoking) or drop in visits to give your dog a break, food, exercise, or attention during the day... whatever your goal is for the visit. At my home I have a large yard and I also live next to beautiful trails and parks for walks. I would love to spend time outside being active with your dog. At your home, I am happy to learn your preferences regarding navigating coming in to care for your pet and what your goal is for the visit. In either scenario I will provide pictures and updates.
About: offer both dog walking and drop-in visits focused on keeping pets on their normal routine. Whether it’s a structured walk or a quick home visit, I prioritize safety, consistency, and reading each pet’s comfort level. Walks are steady and controlled with attention to leash behavior and surroundings. Drop-ins include feeding, water refresh, litter care for cats, and basic companionship without overstimulation. My goal is reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and routines uninterrupted. I work full-time from home, which gives me a flexible and reliable schedule for pet care visits throughout the day. This allows me to offer consistent availability for morning, midday, and evening drop-ins or dog walks, depending on your pet’s needs. Because I’m already home during the day, I’m able to plan visits with short notice in many cases and maintain a steady routine for recurring clients. I’m also available on weekends with advance notice. My schedule works especially well for pets that do best with predictable care times, regular walks, or consistent daily check-ins. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority during every visit and walk. I focus on creating a calm, controlled environment where pets feel secure and routines stay consistent. During dog walks, I use safe leash handling practices, pay close attention to surroundings, and avoid situations that could overwhelm or stress your dog. I prioritize steady pacing and clear awareness of other animals, people, and traffic. During drop-in visits, I make sure doors are secured, feeding routines are followed exactly as instructed, and pets are monitored for any changes in behavior or comfort. I take my time with shy or cautious animals so they can feel safe in their own space. I’m respectful of your home and treat every visit with care, cleanliness, and attention to detail. Communication is straightforward and honest so you always know how your pet is doing.
“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: *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.
“Baxter looks forward to his visitswith Sharon. She takes him on walks, plays and gives him many loves. Sharon sends me many pics of our dog and we text back and forth. Her sense of humor is great. I highly recommend her.”
“Lenny loves Samantha. She is so patient with my 9mo old golden. She is so helpful working with him and teaching him things. She is so friendly and reliable. I am so grateful to have found her!”
“Victoria did great with the drop ins while we were away. She followed all of our instructions well to ensure our pets were well cared for in our absence. The kitties are very thankful for the cuddles!”

This is the 3rd time Penny has watched our cats, and it was also the longest trip we’ve taken. Our cats love her and the attention that they get from her while we are gone, and they were very well cared for like always. Penny provides peace of mind that our pets are safe while we are traveling, and that’s absolutely priceless. You can hire her without any hesitation. Thank you again Penny.

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 .

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 Mukilteo 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.

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.
