“Our dogs and cats were well cared for! She house/pet sat for us. She had a checklist to make sure she provided proper care from scooping the litter box to snuggling each pet every day! We will definitely be using her again for our next trip”
“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!”
About: I have 9 years experience in pet sitting and I love looking after every animal, I’ve taken care of all ages of dogs and cats. I am available on Sundays and most days of the week, I’m able to care for your pet morning, afternoon, evening and overnight in your own home. I am okay with same day scheduling. I will care for your pet in your own home and keep them in their daily routine, make sure they get lots of love, and help them feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I was a volunteer at the Oregon Humane Society (OHS) for six years, caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. I now work as an Animal Care Technician at an animal Shelter. My experience goes beyond feeding and walking animals—I’ve been trained in animal wellbeing, calm handling, basic behavioral training, basic grooming, introducing new dogs to other dogs, playgroups, pack walks, and leadership. I can also administer some medications if needed as well. At OHS, I served as a team lead, led tours, ran camps, trained new volunteers, and even taught a few classes. I hold a FearFree Animal Wellbeing Certification, a Breaking Up A Dog Fight Certification, and I have completed numerous training courses, and earned multiple certifications and achievements through OHS. I’m organized, dependable, and experienced, ensuring every pet in my care is safe, happy, and well-loved. Some fun animal facts about me: I’ve ridden a camel, petted a shark, and used to ride horses! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is my passion. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets, and I look forward to giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve! I live and work in Redmond, with a set schedule. I will always have time for animals! I am flexible with when I am available. I have dog sat, cat sat, small animal sat, and house sat in many different homes and environments. I am flexible and easy to work with. However you like things done, I will do my very best to follow and keep it the same. My main concern is your pet's well-being and happiness!
“Charles is amazing! My pup is initially very timid with new people, but he was so patient and gentle, he won her over quickly! He was a great communicator both before and during the stay, sending me picture updates and spending time with my girl. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous but Charles was honestly fantastic1 I will absolutely be using him again in the future!”
“Dafne’s the very BEST! I will use her again because it’s like leaving my 90lb German Shepherd with a family member. She took her on outings, walks, and treated her like her own baby girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so very much Dafne!!!”
“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.”
“Payten was amazing with my five month old kitten! I was nervous about leaving him for 8 days over the holiday but he seemed to do just fine from the messages and photos Payten sent me while she was house sitting. I will defiantly utilize her again if the opportunity comes up!”
“Alexandria took very good care of our dog Steve. It was our first time hiring someone to take care of him so I was a little hesitant, but she was so nice and sweet with him during our initial visit and I know Steve was in good care with her. She immediately sent a picture showing Steve snuggling which made me very happy knowing he was in good hands.”
“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!”
“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: understand dog body language well and how to react to it, have had my little chihuahua for about 3 years and I love him dearly Take walks everyday with him and he is fed daily, played with him if he so wants to, he’s a smart little doggy so training is necessary for his brain I always respect their boundaries and don’t push them over by doing things they don’t like, dog body language is key to understanding your own pet
“Liz was awesome. She communicated on how things were going each day. She did exactly what my family wanted her to do. I would definitely request her to do it again. I highly recommend her. Thanks so much.”
“Sunny came over for a meet & greet before the stay to make sure she understood everything we needed. She stayed with my senior dude while I was at work and took great care of him. She was also clean and respectful of my home. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Michael was a find! Super happy with all aspects of Michaels personal attributes and for the care he provided to our elderly dog Inka. Great communicator and seemed to be on top of everything we needed. Inka was a happy, relaxed dog upon our return. Thanks!”
“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.”

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!
Charles did a fantastic job with Bonnie. We didn’t worry at all. Upon meeting him and seeing his expertise with dog’s and his sensitive nature, we knew he would be kind and patient with her special needs. We were also thankful that his girlfriend is also a pet sitter, Riley, and she was able to help out a times.
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.
I was anxious about leaving my dogs at home and having a stranger dog sit. Our Misha is Leary and not friendly with people she doesn’t know. Sarah won her over quickly and put my mind at ease. She sent lots of pictures and that helped me tremendously. Sarah and Elizabeth are the best. I highly recommend them and will definitely hire them again. Thanks so much girls. 💞

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.
<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 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 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.
