“Sarah took excellent care of my two dogs - one of whom has mobility issues and extra needs - and was very respectful of my home during her stay. I appreciated the photos and updates of their cuteness as I missed them greatly while I was out of town!”
“Janis was amazing with our cat Em. She had Em sitting on the sofa with her within minutes of arriving at our home....a true cat whisperer. It was also nice to receive photos of Em, while we were gone. When we returned home, the house was tidy and all linens washed, which was very thoughtful of Janis. We will definately use Janis for our catsitting needs in the future. Thank you Janis!”
“Josie was fantastic! She made us feel very at ease with leaving our pup at home for quick overnight trip. She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day. I knew the whole time that Nala was her main focus and that she was very well cared for. I can’t recommend Josie enough and we will be re-booking with her in the near future!”
“Colton was a great dog sitter! He was kind and responsible when it came to caring for our somewhat challenging dog. He left our house in great shape and kept us updated throughout his stay.”
“Caitlin took such great care of our little Leo! She is an excellent communicator and provided updates on how Leo was doing during her stay. She also took great care of our home. We look forward to having Caitlin back to take care of Leo again!”
“Halley was wonderful. She house/dog sit for me and was great with communication -asking needs, preferences, and confirming considerations. I greatly appreciated it. She met Wally, she met me, took a walk through and I appreciated her flexibility and willingness to be prompt and available. I would love to have her care take again and use her services 😊 I recommend for others easily”
About: I have always been a lover of animals. From caring for childhood dogs and cats, to pet sitting for friends and clients. When you’re away, your pets deserve to be well taken care of and loved. I am responsible, caring, mindful, and make sure your pets stay in their routine; from walks, outdoor time, and feeding. I am comfortable sitting for animals that need daily medication or special care. I'm currently have a flexible schedule, so I am available to fit the needs and schedule of your pets. I currently offer home stays (cats and dogs), check-ins (cats only), and scheduled dog walks if you are looking for someone that can help out with your busy schedule. Your pets are safe in my care. If a fenced yard is not provided at your home we will always take leashed walks and potty breaks. I love to take dogs out on hikes, so please let me know your preferences on leash/off-leash and dogs physical ability.
About: What sets me apart is the time and attention I can give each pet. I’m dependable, patient and comfortable following each pets individual routine. I can be flexible on schedule so your pet will get plenty of companionship, affection, and attentive care while you’re away. I do currently hold a full-time job and I’m just looking for weekend time that I can devote to giving your pet full attention, I am open to weekdays as well. Our pets are a member of the family and that is how I will treat them. I take this seriously and also take pride in seeing an animal excited to see me!
“I am so grateful and fortunate to have found Michael to help me feel safe and secure knowing my little man is in the best hands! 5 stars are just not enough!!! Thank you again and I would recommend him for anyone who needs a reliable and respectful home sit for your fur babies.”
“Sherry deserves the utmost praise for the exceptional care she provided for our much loved Luna during our travels. Luna is inseparable from me, and our bond is unbreakable. When financial constraints made it difficult for us to bring her along to England, we were determined to find someone who would be incredibly understanding and patient with her as she struggled with our absence. Sherry proved to be an exceptional communicator, sending us pictures and updates on Luna’s well-being throughout the entire stay. Her thoughtfulness extended beyond her care for Luna; she also helped Luna adjust to her new environment after a few days, which significantly eased our concerns. Upon our return home, we were greeted by a beautifully maintained house and a joyful Luna. We are overjoyed to have found a reliable and compassionate caretaker in Sherry. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Mackenzie was FANTASTIC! She took our dogs out for activities (hiking, walking) several times each week. She sent us pictures of the dogs about 3 times per week, just to update us that everything was going well. The dogs loved her and seemed to be happy and content when we got home from our trip. She also took good care of our house including washing the sheets and cleaning up prior to her departure. We would absolutely use Mackenzie again in the future. She was great!!!”
“Joann did a great job taking care of our pups and house on our recent trip. We received pics or video everyday and came home to a clean house and happy pups. It was so nice to have peace of mind and not have to worry about anything while we were gone.”
About: Hi, I'm new to rover but have about 10 years of experience caring for various pets when my friends are out of town. I truly love all dogs and wish I could take in every dog that isn't in a a loving home, and I have been told that I have a very calming presence, even to the ones like yours who are in a loving home. I currently work part time, (about 30 -35 hours a week) and am looking to pet sit while I figure out long term plans and prepare to go back to college in the fall, but I have a fairly flexible schedule if given reasonable advance. Unfortunately my current living situation would likely be too stressful for your pets, (I live with a dog and a cat), but I am willing to either stay in your home or commute, and update you frequently if desired, as I understand the anxieties around leaving your pet with a relative stranger. I'm more than willing to meet ahead of time in order to develop trust and discuss any important details.
About: I have 25 + Years experience caring for pets professionally and my own personal pets. I'm a licensed vet tech so your pet will have the best care. I'm able to do treatment's and monitor illnesses as directed by your veterinarian. I am veterinarian recommended. I will spoil and care for your pet like I do my own. Species experience: Dogs, cats, pocket pets, birds, reptiles, horses, cows, milk goats. I will customize my time to take care of your pets while you're out of town. I can care for your pets, plants, or get your mail. I will car le for your pets like my own. We can discuss their needs and how you want their care while away. The best part of having a pet sitter is keeping your pet as close to normal routine as possible.
“Lea was so great! She came over beforehand to meet our dogs and establish a connection with them. She really took the time to learn about them, their personalities, and any special instructions that might be applicable. Her communications were always prompt and professional. And when we came home from our trip, our dogs were safe and sound, and jus as happy as could be. Lea left our house clean and even went the extra mile in terms of repairing a hole in the yard one dog had dug. I highly recommend her and would ask her to housesit again anytime.”

Dafne dog-sat our senior Chihuahua for 3 nights at our home and was wonderful! Our dog is very particular with who she will let take her out on walks, and Dafne was able to walk her with ease. She followed our instructions and was great with communication, while also being helpful when needed. Our dog was well cared for and our house was left nice and tidy too! I definitely recommend Dafne’s services.
Dee and Ricardo are amazing! Dee has cared for Hobie multiple times now and can tell how much they love our boy. Feel so at ease when they are watching him. Great communication, left the house clean, lots of pictures and videos throughout our trip. We know our pup loves them bc when we get back he hangs out by the front door watching for when they might return. We hope they continue to come back in the future!
Amber did a great job with our terrier mix Molly. She's not the easiest dog to make friends with but Amber made it happen. She is a great communicator and was flexible and easy to work with on days, times etc. She showed up right on time for both our introductory meeting and also for our departure. We will definitely book with her again.
Once again, Bonnie went above and beyond for us! ❤️ There was an unexpected intersection closure that meant a long and difficult detour just to get to our house, but she still made the extra effort to be there for our dogs. She is always so reliable, caring, and wonderful with them, and we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in her care. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and appreciate her more than she knows!
Sharan was wonderful! She gave us daily updates and pictures. She communicated any needs or concerns to us right away. She followed the instructions for feeding and medicine. She went on walks with Sadie daily. I'm sure Sadie will miss all the care and attention she got from Sharan. We will definitely use her for future pet/house sitting jobs. We would highly recommend her to anyone who might need her services in the future. Sincerely, Wendell and Carrie
First time using Rover and Mary was great! Updated us with photos, took great care of Josie, our home and our flowers! Took Josie on lots of happy walks. And, love that Mary is retired and could be here most of the time & overnight. Will definitely request Mary again when we need a sitter.😍
Shay did amazing watching our two dogs at my place. He responded right away, and was willing to take the dogs on an unusual last minute request for us. He played with dogs so attentively and took them for a walk to the park. He even watered some plants for us while we were gone. We have never had such a good rover experience as when Shay watched our dogs. He sent lots of pics throughout the day. All directions were followed perfectly. He had a lot of directions to follow lol. He was very honest, took well care of the house and left everything perfectly clean when we got back. We would trust him completely and we definitely recommend him and would have him watch our sweet pups again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Redmond is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 615 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Redmond. 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 Redmond 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 Redmond 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 Redmond 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
