“Zach took awesome care of our three animals while we were gone for three weeks out of the country. He provided great updates for us and made sure everyone was well taken care of!”
“Summer did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 dogs, cat, and our home. We returned home after 5 days to happy pets and a clean home. Summer was very communicative during our time away. We highly recommend Summer for your pet car care!”
“I booked Halle super last minute for an overnight, my dog was very happy and relaxed when we came back home and everything was clean as we left it. She even left a little drawing of him on our fridge. Thank you Halle!”
“Johanna is a serious about our pets. She cares as if my buddies were her own. This peace of mind is priceless. I trust her with my lil furry buddies and my entire home while we are away. Thank you Johanna for being trustworthy, understanding, and incredibly informative about our furry friends!”
“Melissa is a PHENOMENAL Rover. Above and beyond. We've probably used 8-9 rovers across 3 states over the past 6 years and she is one of the best. Took the girls on extra long exercise down to their favorite beach and cleaned them off afterwards, took our trash out to the curb even when I forgot to ask, kept everything clean and checked in regularly. Even started wash with guest room sheets before she left. Most importantly, Happy happy dogs. Pictures of Tova (our more aloof pup) snuggling Melissa Day 1 spoke volumes. Will absolutely book with her whenever we can. 10/10”
“Chloe did a great job with our small herd of dogs. I could tell from the pictures she sent that our dogs enjoyed her company as well. She even brought her dog over for a hang session. Which is great!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter. Literally zero complaints, she was communicative, helpful, took notes on the goods and the bads, went above and beyond to provide service for my pets. Absolutely will be using her again, first choice.”
About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by animals of all kinds, fostering a deep and intuitive connection with them. This bond has always felt effortless, as forming relationships with animals is one of my greatest passions. I have successfully trained numerous dogs to coexist harmoniously with family members, other pets, and small children. My fearlessness around animals has allowed me to interact with them without hesitation, and I have never been bitten. My approach is rooted in compassion, patience, and understanding, earning me the reputation of an “animal whisperer.” I currently have a lot of free time, and this would be my main priority! I am willing to put in as many hours as people need! I have an outdoor/indoor 18 year old cat who’s quality of life is amazing. She eats a very healthy diet, gets a lot of activity and socializing in, and cuddles all night long from my partner and I.
About: I have extensive experience with equines, dogs, cats, fish, and most reptiles. Family, friends, and strangers have trusted me to care for their animals, both with drop in visits and house/pet sitting. I currently work part time Monday-Thursday but my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to fit the needs of your household. I am punctual and have reliable transportation. I am great at communication and can often accept requests with little notice! I am very confident with my animal care and handling. I grew up around all sorts of animals and have always helped others with their pets. I will always put pet safety first and make sure your pets are happy and healthy!
“Daisy is wonderful and took amazing care pampering my fur babies. They are healthy and happy and probably missing her! Followed their schedule and lovingly interacted with them. Send great pictures and eased my mind. I will use her services again and highly recommend her!”
“Our pups adored Brougan. They were very well taken care of. One had a broken toe nail and that required watching him and putting on bandages so he wouldn't lick it. Brougan also watered all of plants for us and left the house clean. We will definetly be using Brougan again. Thank you.”
“Dianne house sat for my energetic pitbull, who has some anxiety/prey drive/reactivity behavioral challenges. She took good care of her and let me know things were going well. Thanks Dianne!”
“Tananda was great with Frito. Very communicative and sent me plenty of pictures. Left the house spotless and was real easy to work with! I would definitely recommend her.”
“Jerra did a great job with our elderly cat. We’re always nervous to leave him with someone new, but she took good care of him, including administering medications. He was happy and relaxed when we got home!”
“Cattleya was wonderful with our huskies and did us a huge favor filling in for our regular sitter last minute. We felt very comfortable with her caring for our home and our pups for the weekend. We will definitely be booking with her in the future 😊”
“Great job staying with and taking good care of our dogs, lots of pictures and updates over the course of the stay. It was wonderful knowing they were being well cared for while we were away from them.”
“Kendall is an amazing women in so many ways. She stayed with my two boy dogs and became their second mom. The boys were so calm when I got home. House looked great and most of all she is smart, common sensed, trusted and earned my total respect. She is now a part of my family. Thank you Kendall. Pam”

She did a great job taking care of Winston while I was away! He isn’t always the easiest pup to care for, but everything seemed to go really well and he was happy and comfortable when I got home. She also left my apartment exactly how I left it, which I really appreciated. It was so nice coming home to a happy pup and a clean space. Thank you for taking such good care of him!
Taylor went above and beyond to care for our kitty Cal at our house while we were away for a week. She was communicative throughout and sent the cutest pictures. I could tell when I got home how well taken care of he was. She left the house super tidy and ready for us to return. We will absolutely be asking Taylor to sit again. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet/house sitter!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Olympia walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Olympia maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Olympia choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
