“10/10! Dmytro was stellar in care of my dogs and taking care of our home. He took the time to do an initial meet and greet with me; he was thoughtful, communicative, very easy to work with, and sent lots of pictures of my dogs while I was gone. We came home to a clean home and my dogs loved him! Will definitely have him house- and dog-sit again - very very happy with experience. Thanks Dmytro!”
“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Katrina was extremely thorough and loving with all of our animals. Lots of pictures were sent which made us feel great & secure that everything was being taken care of, from walks to cuddles. We would definitely hire Katrina for future visits.”
“Our plans changed the day before we were scheduled to leave and we couldn’t bring our dog as planned, we frantically looked for a dog sitter and luckily we found Ethan! He was so wonderful with our dog Lucy while we were gone for a week. He took her for daily walks as we asked and kept in frequent communication with us about day to day activities, sending us pictures. He was neat and clean and respectful of our home. We came home from our trip to a very happy, well cared for dog. Thank you Ethan!”
“Alfonso watch our dog for one night and he was absolutely wonderful!!! He sent lots of photos and gave us updates throughout the night and morning. Our dog was extremely comfortable with him from the first meeting.”
“Kira was an amazing dog sitter! One of our dogs has separation anxiety, and Kira did a great job keeping her calm and cared for. They also asked a lot of great questions to make sure they had all of the information they needed about our dogs while we were gone. They sent us pictures of the dogs and gave status updates while we were gone which was really appreciated! They were very flexible with time too, I was able to book them with just a few days notice, and had to stay out later than expected which was no problem for them. Overall it was a great experience, our pups seemed very happy. Thanks Kira! <3”
“I have been using Rover for five years and have hired numerous dog sitters, but Mingxin is definitely the best one I have ever met. She is a very responsible person who pays attention to every detail of my requests. She provides great communication, always sends updates on my dog, and makes sure everything is in place. She walks my dog twice a day, taking her on long walks to explore. My dog was taken care of so well that I didn't have to worry about a thing while I was on vacation. I will definitely hire her again and I really appreciate her service!”
“Li was great. She showed up with a whole checklist of things that I had even forgotten would be important to bring up. She got along amazingly well with my pup. She took Kalli on a walk, and handled her very well. Was upfront about what she could and couldn't do. Definitely someone to trust with your pup. :)”
“Maryna and her husband took such great care of our Ruffi! It's always a nice feeling to return home to a happy dog :). She got him out for adventure walks and sent lots of pictures each day. And the house was left clean and tidy.”
About: I used to love raising chickens rabbits goats and turkeys, and always had dogs and cats at my side. Those days are behind me, so I'm here to help take care of yours now. I'm a grandma and watch my grandkids part time, so I have lots of time and energy for being with critters and caring for them. When I worked at a doggie daycare, I learned all about their needs and spent many of nights taking care of the boarding dogs and cats. I'm prepared to handle any medical needs, and love detailed instructions.
“Justelle always go above and beyond. This is the second time we have had travel delays and she is accommodating and responsive when we are trying to figure out how to pivot when a flight delay keeps us from getting home when expected. Our pets are so happy and our home is tidier than when we left it. It is a welcomed sight when traveling with delays.”
“Alec is great to work with! Honest, kind and on time. I needed help to watch my pup during surgery at 4am . Alec was there to help and I will definitely work with him again! He was so gentle, kind and caring towards my pup and it meant the world to me! Thank you, Alec! Look forward to the next time!”
“Murou was wonderful with Ollie! She was great at communing and keeping us updated with Ollie while we were away. We got a lot of pictures which I love! Came back to a tidy home too. Will definitely use again in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Jaimee was excellent. She showed up took care of our dog sent photos throughout the weekend and when we came home the house was clean like no one was there. I would recommend her to anyone,we were totally happy with her service.”
“Lindsey is incredibly dependable and trustworthy—I never have to worry when she’s caring for my dog. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. My pup absolutely adores her! I highly recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”
“Yu was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter and house sitter—we feel so lucky to have found her! She took such loving care of both our dog and our cat, Rosie, while we were away. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent us frequent updates, complete with adorable photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind and made us smile every day. Not only did she take our dog on long, happy walks, but she also made sure both the dog and cat were well-fed, cuddled, and clearly feeling safe and loved in our absence. We could tell they were thriving under her care. When we returned home, the house was in beautiful condition—tidy, clean, and clearly well looked after. It honestly felt like we’d left everything in the hands of a trusted friend. Yu’s calm, responsible nature and her clear love for animals make her an absolute gem. We would invite her back to watch our pets and home again in a heartbeat. If you have the chance to book her—do it!”
“Briana took great care of my pups! She had great communication, was reliable, followed all our instructions, accommodated a last minute request from us, and kept Murphy and Charlie relaxed and happy during her visit. I would be very comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care in the future! Thank you, Briana!”

Chantal was wonderful with Obii! And Obii absolutely loved Chantal. She kept me updated throughout the visit with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciated the regular updates and being able to see how he was doing while I was away. She was kind, reliable, and made sure Obii was well cared for. I will be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and communicative sitter!
Our plans changed the day before we were scheduled to leave and we couldn’t bring our dog as planned, we frantically looked for a dog sitter and luckily we found Ethan! He was so wonderful with our dog Lucy while we were gone for a week. He took her for daily walks as we asked and kept in frequent communication with us about day to day activities, sending us pictures. He was neat and clean and respectful of our home.

Alex was fantastic and took great care of our cats while we were away. They were very accommodating and flexible as well as very responsive and kind enough to share multiple photos and videos of the cats every day. We will undoubtedly use Alex again in the future or our pet sitting needs!
Katrina did an excellent job watching my dog. He’s a Frenchie that deals with some separation anxiety, and when I came home he seemed completely unaffected by my absence. She was very communicative and sent me lots of photos which helped my separation anxiety. Will absolutely have her watch my pup again!
this was my first time using this type of service and I was very lucky to get Juniper as the sitter for my dog Massima. Juniper was very professional, a lot of attention to the details especially because my dog has a medication protocol that requires attention to details and she did excellent and overall the Experian was great very good updates really care for my pet and also kept me informed everyday on everything really want to book again with her because she earned my trust
Thank you Maryna! We cannot recommend Maryna highly enough! She was fantastic with Scout (pit/GSD mix). She took great care of him, took him on long walks (daily) and sent updates with photos multiple times a day. We came back to a happy, relaxed pup, further proof of her care. Bonus that our house was clean (we have had issues in the past with another sitter). We will definitely use Maryna again and will recommend her to any friends who have pet sitting needs!
Li did a fantastic job house-sitting while my wife and I were out of town for a week. She provided frequent updates, took our dog on multiple long walks each day, and was very thorough when getting details before starting. She got along great with both our cat and dog, and gave of peace of mind that everything was taken care of at home. We would definitely go to her when needing a pet-sitter again.
Christian was absolutely wonderful with our high energy Golden Retriever! He sent lots of photo's of her while they were busy on walks. Plus, photos of her relaxing in his home. I was worried she would have anxiety, but she seemed to really settle in. The next time we need a pet sitter we will definitely contact Christian.
Mikayla did a spectacular job taking care of Twyla! In our initial meet up she instilled in us a sense of calmness by sharing her experience with pets and asking all the necessary questions to ensure that she was doing a great job and was ready to take care of Twyla. We came back to a very happy Twyla!
Maria was the best! We had never left our pup home alone for an overnight stay, so we were very nervous. When we first met up with Maria, she was very good at asking all the right questions. She noted our instructions and followed them to a "T". While we were gone, she sent us lots of pictures and videos. We could tell that our dog was happy and well cared for. We would definitely book her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Redmond
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Redmond on Rover is $66.6 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 7,659 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 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.
