“Dillon was amazing with my 4 beasts. He was able to help me out last minute and went above and beyond taking the dogs on individual walks. They were very happy when I got home. His dog Bucky was so sweet and patient with my dogs, they can be a little overwhelming. I was so happy my dogs were in safe hands.”
“Our two goldens can be quite the handful but I knew they were in good hands with you for the week! You’re always so responsive and great about sending pictures and updates for peace of mind. Cant recommend Mckinnley enough if you need someone to stay with your pups!!”
About: I professionally worked with dogs for 3 years and have experience working with all types of dogs large and small, high energy and mellow, social and shy. I’m well acquainted with administering medication orally and topically. High quality photos during our time will also be provided :) It’s a priority of mine to respect your home and leave your home just as it was when you left and with a happy dog when you return! NOTE: I do not accept 90+ lb dogs that are known to pull/get riled up by environmental factors. I am pretty small myself so I cannot safely handle such dogs. This is for the safety of both your pup and me! Thanks for checking my profile! As of now, I am currently unemployed and Rover is my main gig. That means more time and availability for you and your pup! If this changes it will be reflected here. I will always treat your home and your pet with utmost care and respect. ❤️ I’m in tune with reading dog behavior and language and can adjust my manner to whatever is needed to make your pet comfortable and happy.
“Isabella took such good care of our home and our kitties! She was awesome about coming for a meet and greet and responding quickly to messages. Our babies were well loved, and our home was left very clean and tidy. She was fantastic!”
“Erika kept in touch with me daily and sent photos. I can tell my dog was well cared for and I would absolutely have Erika dog sit again. My house was also clean when I got home. Erika did a great job with my leash reactive dog.”
“Raquel was incredible - start to finish. She's a great communicator and wonderful with our high energy dogs. She left our house even cleaner than we left it. Highly recommend!”
“Leta was great with my cat Luka. When I arrived home from work he was resting on his king size bed(formerly my bed). I would highly recommend Leta to care for your cat in their home. Thank you Leta for taking great care of my friend Luka.”
“Kaylin was great!! She was extremely flexible when we had to unexpectedly extend our vacation by a day. She sent pics of our pups and always answered quickly any time I messaged her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!😁”
“I engaged Katherine for a two-day, one night stay, rather last minute. She was terrific -- very communicative and punctual, attentive to my dog, took her on long walks, sent lots of pics. I would certainly hire her again.”
“Amazing individual! She was so kind, caring and communicative with my pup while I was gone. Went above and beyond his usual routine. And also left the place spotless. Truly a wonderful experience for my pup and I as I was supper nervous to do something like this. Will be using her services in the future!!”
“Kevin recently cared for our golden doodle and home for several days, and we were so impressed with every aspect of our experience with him. He truly went above and beyond in every way. From his daily reports and photos we could tell that our pup was well loved and cared for while we were away. And returning home to a clean and tidy house was the icing on the cake! Kevin was professional, kind and communicative, making the entire experience a joy. It's obvious that he loves dogs and has a special connection with them. We highly recommend Kevin and plan to contact him again the next time we travel.”
“Dana and her partner were great with Angus and it was nice to have that extra coverage. They left the place just as I had left it and even picked up dog poop, which I think is very nice. There were 2 things that stuck me as odd closer to the booking when there were some scheduling things brought up, since they work together they were able to make sure my dog got his meds. I would also have liked to be asked if they could make a duplicate key first or I could have given them one. Overall I would hire them again.”
“Lia was absolutely awesome pet sitting our dog, Timber, while we were away for six days! She was incredibly attentive and responsive the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. When we got home, Timber was normal, completely relaxed, and happy. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely hire Lia again. Highly recommended!”
“Robin was phenomenal and made us feel at ease while we were out of town. Our pup was completely comfortable with her, and we came home to a spotless house. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again if/when she's available!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! 🐾 She stayed at our house while we were away and took absolutely amazing care of our dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were comfortable in their own home and getting so much attention. She sent tons of photos and updates, which we loved seeing while we were gone. Our dogs got plenty of playtime every day, especially their favorite game of chuckit multiple times a day! You could tell they were happy, exercised, and well cared for the whole time. Our house was also in great shape when we got back, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave our pups and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐶”
“Nova was terrific! They house sat and stayed with my dogs and cat nearly uninterrupted for 6 days. As happy as my dogs were to see me, they were sad to see Nova go, which is exactly as I’d hope. Thanks again, Nova!”
“Mandy is the best! She watched our Rusty Dog.and stayed with him at our house. Rusty did great with her. Communicated with us and sent us pictures of Rusty! We will definitely use her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,290 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pierce. 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 Pierce 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 Pierce 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 Pierce 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pierce. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
