“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my babies :) she walked Bee, made sure she took her medicine, and gave them both plenty of snuggles. I would absolutely rebook if needed <3”
“Anna was absolutely wonderful with Bailey! I was away for 10 days and felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Her communication throughout the stay was excellent. She kept me consistently updated, which made a huge difference while I was traveling. I could tell she genuinely cared about Bailey's well-being. I will 100% be reaching out to Anna again for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive rover!”
“Rose is amazing!! She took amazing care of my girls and house. I get a little nervous leaving my reactive dog that has special needs but she did AMAZING with her. She gave me updates all the time and left my house spotless. I highly recommend Rose.”
“Jordan was absolutely incredible with my dog Cali for the weekend. She is an older pup and he took such great care of her. He was attentive and timely and kept in communication with me throughout the entire weekend. I can't recommend him enough!”
“Neva was fantastic and gave my senior pup all the love, attention, and snuggles she requires. She kept me updated regularly with photos and little anecdotes about their day together. My dog adored her and that made me a happy dog mom.”
“So glad that Carissa was available to watch my babies for a long weekend! She was great with updates and pictures and I felt really good knowing she was there with them. She took wonderful care of my babies and my home, leaving my place so clean and nice. She’s a gem and I will absolutely use her again! Thank you Carissa! 🙏”
“Shannon watched our dogs for the first time last weekend on short notice and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, sent pictures of our doggies, and took them on walks and frequently let them out. Will definitely rely on her again soon!”
“Alicia took great care of our boy. She sent several pictures daily and he always looked happy. She left the house clean and we would definitely book with her again.”
“Morgan is a great dogsitter! I received lots of updates and pics while I was away. Beaux needed extra help because he had recently gotten surgery - he had to wear a cone and get meds and Morgan didn't skip a beat to take on these extra responsibilities. Will definitely book Morgan again!”
“Conrad was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was very happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and pictures were sent as requested. We will definitely be using Conrad’s services again in the near future.”
“Maggie was exceptional throughout the entire process and I highly recommend her services! We had three dogs and she gave each of them the loving they needed while we were away, while providing us updates of all the fun they were having together!”
“Would highly recommend Georgia! She stayed with my little man for five nights and did a stellar job. Lots of updates, left my apartment even tidier than she found it, and my pup seemed very happy when I got back. Thanks so much, Georgia!”
“Erin is amazing! She was great at communicating updates everyday and sent super cute pictures of our dog. She is very responsive and responsible and I was totally relaxed on vacation knowing she was there. We would definitely book her services again and will recommend to others!”
“Michaela was prompt with communication and made sure to send several updates throughout the weekend including pics of my boys. It was greatly appreciated! Would absolutely use Michaela again to watch my fur babes!”
“Michael was absolutely amazing with our 2 babies!! Our dogs don’t normally love new people, but they loved Michael! He is so gentle and loving toward any dog. Additionally, he gave us daily updates with pictures and kept us in the loop with everything while he house sat for us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM AGAIN!!”
“Ashlyn was so great with our two dogs while we were away at our wedding. She was so patient with us while my brain was swamped with bride craziness. Our dogs loved her, and she gave us updates with photos on how they were doing. We had peace of mind with our dogs in her care. Our home was well taken care of as well. Highly recommend her!”
“McKenna did a fantastic job caring for our 2 dogs while we were away. She was prompt with her arrival to our house and a great communicator in general. She sent us pictures of the dogs and they were clearly very happy and comfortable with her, even our dachshund who is in a bit of a stranger-danger phase. Our house was clean and tidy when we came home. We will definitely be using McKenna in the future when we need help.”
“We can’t say enough positive things about Alex! We don’t leave our dogs alone very often, and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a bit of a high-maintenance dog dad. On top of that, one of our two dogs is extremely anxious and usually has a hard time warming up to new people. Alex did a phenomenal job handling both the dogs and us 😂 She listened carefully to all of our instructions and tips and was incredibly patient and compassionate with them. Somehow she even managed to get our Mozzie to open up and make a new friend, which is no small feat. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which really helped put us at ease while we were away. It meant a lot to know they were in such good hands. We truly can’t recommend Alex enough and will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you, Alex, for the care and compassion you showed our dogs!”
“Marianne watched our two old pups during our wedding weekend. Thanks to how wonderful Marianne is, we didn’t think twice about whether our boys were happy, comfortable, and safe — we knew they absolutely were and it gave us the peace of mind to simply enjoy our day. Marianne was super responsive, sent us a ton of pictures (after asking if that would be ok as she didn’t want to “disturb us” on wedding day, which was unnecessary but so thoughtful), we came home to a pristine house, and our boys absolutely adore her. She’s been fully embraced as part of the pack and she’ll be our go-to sitter/walker from here on out without hesitation.”
“Erika was wonderful with our old guy. She took great care of Bubba, gave him meds 4 times a day & did his workouts with him. She made our trip more enjoyable knowing he was in such great hands.”

Jonathan was great. Our dog loved him. And I felt very relieved and relaxed knowing Jonathan was at our house with our dog Roscoe. He was very quick to reply to questions and came over for a meet a greet, which makes you feel more comfortable with someone in your home for the 1st time. Our house and Roscoe were well cared for. He sent lots of updates and photos and asked questions when needed. He even sent pictures of the fish, which I loved and it made me laugh. I can’t wait to book Jonathan again and again. Would highly recommend but I just want to keep him for ourselves😜
Kaisa was fantastic dog sitting in our home! She was amazing with our girl’s quirks and exercise needs, was very communicative and treated the house great. Went above and beyond and took her on a hike, we will definitely be using Kaisa again for future sitting needs!
Liz was an amazing sitter. She was the best communicator and loved on our pups. She let us know if anything came up and made sure to send photos of dogs. She treated with such care that when we came back, we could tell it was like we never left. She even left some sweet mini photos of our pups for us and sewed up a couple toys that our dogs love to tear up. She went above and beyond! We would absolutely love to have her sit for our dogs again!
Harley was absolutely wonderful! Took such great care of babies and kept me updated throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to two healthy & happy kitties and a tidy home. I would happily book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a kind, reliable pet sitter!
Joy is great. She is a wonderful person and the perfect dog/house sitter. She is very communicative, patient and most importantly takes great care of our border collie Cleo and our house. We recommend her to the highest degree. We trust her and Musti completely with our most prized little doggie.
Hannah did such an amazing job watching my dog Arugula! This was my first time using rover and from the moment I messaged Hannah she made the experience easy and comfortable. My dog is a bit shy and scared of people she doesn't know and Hannah was not only understanding of that but took the time to gain her trust. Hannah sent me updates and photos throughout the time she was watching Arugula and it made me feel so at ease and not having to worry about my dog while I was away was such a gift. I will definitely be hoping to hire Hannah again next time I have to go out of town and would recommend her 100%
Dionne was great! She sent lots of photos and videos and it was clear that our 2 golden retrievers were happy and loved her. She communicated daily and went above and beyond with house watching. The house was left immaculate. Absolutely no reservations recommending her.
Branham took great care of our dog and our house for over a week while we were traveling. It was the second time he took care of elf our dog, and she is in great hands. Lots of updates as well. There’s a lot of peace of mind when you’re traveling when you know your dog is having fun and in good hands.
This was our second time booking with Lauren and she was just as amazing as the first time! So attentive to our cats needs and followed all instructions well. I also cant express enough how great of a communicator she is. I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs.

FAQs for House Sitting - North Washington
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Washington on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,933 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Washington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Washington 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 Washington 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.
Tip: 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 Washington 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 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.

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.
