“We are so thankful for Victoria! She took care of our 3 dogs and home for a weekend and we trusted her through out our stay. We appreciate her communication and the time she spent with our dogs. Thank you Victoria!”
“Kristine and Lauren were amazing with my babies. Communication was stellar and coming home the house was probably cleaner than I left it. I would use them again as the proof is in the pudding - cats and dog are very happy.”
“Natalie was super sweet and our pup clearly loved her. She sent us frequent updates and even took out the trash when she left. We would absolutely have her back the next time we have to travel without our pup!”
“Shelby is so kind and takes great care of our pups! We have worked with her a few times and both of our dogs are relaxed and happy when she is here. She handles our special needs dog with care and sends updates while we are away. Highly recommend!”
“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
“Victoria is absolutely fabulous! My dogs adore her! She is excellent at communication and sending bunches of photos. She was also flexible with my schedule when I had to change the reservation at the last minute. I highly recommend Victoria!”
“Susan was excellent. We really appreciated everything that she did for us (house sitting and dog walking) and we were very confident that our pets would be well taken care of. I will hire her again when the need arises and would strongly recommend her to anyone else.”
“Kari was a great fit for watching our dogs. They were well taken care of and we arrived home to happy pups and she even washed the dishes! I recommend her and will hopefully get to book her again.”
“Jazmine did a great job watching over my pets, she communicated daily activities and anything additional that had come up. I received daily photos of my boys and could tell they were well cared for when I got back. Will definitely be a repeating customer”
“All of the animals loved Stephanie. She did a great job and was flexible with some last minute changes. Very communicative and sent lots of pictures, which we loved!”
About: I’ve been around all kinds of dogs and breeds my entire life. I had a large husky when I was little, and a golden retriever. I’ve always gotten along with friends, family and neighbors dogs no matter the size or breed. I currently have two dogs a 90+ Ibs pitbull mix and a 35 Ibs blue heeler mix. I understand that each dog and breed have their own needs and lifestyles. I’m currently out of school for the summer and have an almost completely free schedule to take care of your pet and their needs. I have some things that have been scheduled for awhile but other than those few things I am available throughout the day. I can easily crate pets if needed. I can feed them and take them for walks/ to the bathroom multiple times throughout the day. I am unable to have pets stay at my home but I am willing to pet/ house sit if that is needed. I can pay a lot of attention to your pet while you are gone.
“So incredibly grateful that we found Maleka to care for our pups and house sit for two nights. She took amazing care of our dogs and home and exceeded our expectations in every way. We would highly recommend Maleka to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies and home!”
“Fawn was amazing. I can’t recommend her enough. We have a dog with behavioral issues that also takes medication everyday, she handled it so well. We were gone for over a week and not once did I feel uncomfortable, nervous or anxious. We will definitely be booking with Fawn again. THE BEST!”
“My babies were cared for and piper was very communicative during the stay. Just some little details that need to be communicated- to please clean up after using the kitchen and also fresh water in the cat bowl as well as dog bowl. Thanks Piper.”
“Breanne was amazing! She updated us twice daily with photos so I always knew how my dog was doing and it gave me such peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and will also definitely be using her to watch my dog again!”
“Khaytlen is experienced, accommodating, and has lots of dogs around to play with. Her yard is a huge oasis it’s like a park. She also has a kennel setup and the ability to separate dogs or integrate them as needed. She did an excellent job with our 1yr old lab mix. He’s anxious around people and has some behavioral issues but Khaytlen was able to handle him very well. She was flexible when our plans changed and very understanding. Unlike boarding at a doggie daycare, she provides daily pack-walks, structured socializations and instills good habits.”
“Keegan was amazing! We have a very nervous and dog-reactive German Shepherd, so we were worried about finding the right sitter. Keegan exceeded our expectations and took such great care of both of our dogs. She was patient, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to two happy, well cared for pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We’re so happy to have found our go-to person for watching our dogs and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi, I’m Leslie! Thank you so much for stopping by my page. 🐾 I recently got divorced and moved into the area, and I’m looking forward to exploring the neighborhood and discovering all the local dog parks. I’m originally from Canada and have been around animals my entire life. Even when I visit back home in Vietnam, I somehow always find myself caring for a cat or dog during my stay! Growing up, my family ran a small business, which often meant relying on others to help care for our pets—so I completely understand how scary it can be to trust someone new with your furbaby. That’s exactly why I treat every animal I care for like one of my own—with patience, love, and attention. I currently have four pups of my own: Karsyn, Joelle, Harper, and Karter—all well-socialized and friendly. When your dog stays with me, they’ll have a fun, balanced mix of playtime, rest, and loving companionship with the pack. I have open availability and am home most of the time, so your pet will never be short on supervision or snuggles! What to Expect Pups are free to roam and play inside the house with my dogs. I make homemade treats from time to time (I’ll always check with you about allergies first). I’m always happy to accommodate any special care, medication, or feeding routines. I'm getting familiar with new parks and trails in the area, so light walks around the neighborhood are part of our daily routine. Meet & Greets I typically require a meet & greet before any booking—whether it's for boarding, daycare, or drop-in visits. This helps: Make sure everyone gets along (especially with my pups!) Give you peace of mind about where your dog will be staying Let your pup become familiar with me and the new environment Allow me to understand your home setup for drop-ins, so I can care for your pet confidently and respectfully A Final Note Thank you for taking time out of your day to read my profile. I truly love what I do, and I’d be honored to care for your furry family member. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon! 🐶💕 Pet sitting is my full-time job, so caring for your furry family members is my top priority. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily plan my day around drop in visits, feedings, playtime and check-ins. Weather your pet needs care in the morning, afternoon or evening, I can make it work. My flexibility also means I'm often available for extended care. Providing reliable, loving care isnt just part of my day, it is my day! Respecting your home and earning your trust are just as important to me as caring for your pet. I treat every home with the same care as I would my own. Keeping things clean, secure and exactly as I found them. I will typically double check that doors are locked, lights are on/off(depending on your instructions) and that your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave. This applies in my home as well. However your pet is treated at home, I will respect that routine and try to keep up to it to the best of my abilities.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Puyallup
Natalie is fabulous! She took excellent care of our dog while we were away for 10 days. She spoiled him with lots cuddles and playtime, just as we had asked! She followed our directions and she kept in touch the whole time. Excellent communication. Absolutely would recommend.
Ariana has been our regular sitter for Dax and Nickle for quite some time, and I honestly cannot say enough good things about her. She recently completed a 3-day, 2-night house sitting stay for us, and once again exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Ariana has been dependable, professional, and incredibly respectful of both our dogs and our home. Her communication is excellent, and she always keeps us updated with messages and photos that help us feel connected while we're away. What truly sets Ariana apart is the relationship she has built with our dogs. Dax and Nickle absolutely love her, and it's obvious she genuinely cares about them. As any pet parent knows, finding someone you trust with your pets is priceless. Before finding Ariana, leaving town was stressful because I was constantly worried about how the dogs were doing. Now, she's the reason I'm able to leave them at home and actually enjoy my time away, knowing they're safe, comfortable, loved, and receiving the same level of care I would give them myself. Trust is everything when it comes to pet care, and Ariana has earned ours completely. We are so grateful to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, trustworthy, communicative, and truly exceptional at what she does.
Joanna was incredible when caring for our group over the weekend. Both cats and our dog were completely content when we got home. She even made the bed with fresh sheets, took out the trash, and made sure our water pitcher was full for the hot weather. Very much appreciate her being with our animals while we were away. We will definitely be booking again very soon!
If we could give 10 stars, we would! Ashlee went above and beyond taking care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She had great communication, sent tons of pictures and took exceptional care of both our pup and home. On top of that, she was more than willing to extend her stay due to travel complications. We will be repeat customers and are so happy we found her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Puyallup
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Puyallup on Rover is $54.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,391 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Puyallup. 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 Puyallup 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 Puyallup 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 Puyallup 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 Puyallup. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
