“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I bring a personalized touch to every dog-sitting gig! I have experience with everything from energetic puppies needing training to senior dogs requiring extra care and patience. I also have experience working with reactive or anxious dogs and understand that their behavior stems from fear or insecurity. My focus is on creating a safe and calm environment where the dog feels secure. I use positive reinforcement methods, like treats and praise, to build trust and help them feel more comfortable. I'm skilled in positive reinforcement techniques, so I can help with basic obedience. Plus, I'm super attentive to the unique needs of older dogs, managing medications, and ensuring their comfort. Most importantly, I focus on building a strong bond with each dog, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. I'm all about creating a positive, enriching experience for every pet. I took a gap year after I graduated to save money for a higher education. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine because I prioritize consistency and reliability. I make sure to set aside dedicated time each day for feeding, play, and any special care like medication or cleaning. On a weekly basis, I also schedule deeper cleaning tasks, like thorough litter box maintenance or extra play sessions, to keep pets happy and healthy. This routine helps me stay organized and ensures that every pet gets the attention and care they need without any stress or rush. When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment.I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, especially regarding feeding, medications, and any special needs. Building trust is key, so I approach pets gently and patiently, allowing them to feel secure and relaxed. I also maintain cleanliness and monitor their behavior closely to quickly address any signs of stress or health issues. This way, pets feel cared for and protected, while they’re in their familiar surroundings.

About: My partner (Chip) and I have completed over 5 pet-sits on the platform, Trusted Housesitters. We both grew up with dogs and live a very active lifestyle, so rest assured your dog (or cat) will get plenty of attention and exercise! My partner and I both work from home, so we have plenty of time and bandwidth to care for your pets! We can take for walks, potty breaks throughout the day, and give them plenty of attention while we are working on our laptops. We only have an apartment, so no fenced yard but have easy access to Cathedral Park, Pier Park, and Peninsula Park. We're also right across from Forest Park, so if your pet likes to hike, we can take them on a forest adventure!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 6. I grew up with a dog, people we knew had dogs, and we always had at least 1 cat in our care. Animals were what I knew. And still do. I’m intuitive when it comes to your furry child’s needs and currently look over the pets of my family and friend’s while they’re away. I can generally get somewhere after work at around 530pm. I love to walk and can provide daily walks for pets. On the weekends, I can make myself available for all day and care :) I’m in a small new studio so I’d prefer to watch pets at their homes. Many animals feel more at home in their familiar environment, removing the extra anxiety since they may already be stressed without their caregiver. I’m very attentive to your furry child’s needs, with water, food, walks, playtime, basic training etc. :)
About: I provide reliable, loving, personalized care for every pup, treating your furry family members like my own with patience, attention, and plenty of cuddles! 🐾❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I prioritize regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention. I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care so every pup feels safe, happy, and at home. 🐾❤️ My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and I share it with Penelope, my friendly two-year-old tabby cat. I prioritize safety, comfort, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated on your furry family member.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and had pets of my own for as long as I can remember. I currently have a 8 month pup she’s super sweet and gets along great with other dogs . I work from home and set my own schedule so I have the ability to take pets on frequent walks and follow any eating schedules or medication distribution. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible, I have many opportunities to take breaks for walks or runs. Or even take them to the park I follow any special instructions that have been provided, other than that I just play with them, cuddle and feed them my neighborhood is safe
About: Hi all! My name is Peyton, I'm 20, and from Vancouver, Washington. I recently worked at the Humane Society for Southwest Washington for nearly 2 years, where I was an Animal Care Technician, working with all types of animals, including small animals like rabbits/hamsters, as well as reptiles, with a focus in feline care and behavior management. Here I performed basic animal husbandry like feeding, cleaning, and daily monitoring for changes in health, to small and large animal handling, handling and administering medications/medication schedules, special diets, managing animals with diabetes, administering vaccinations, wound/infection/fungus/stitch care, and working with and managing animals with behavioral struggles from all different backgrounds, genetic or epigenetic causes. Also a large part of my job being picking up poo of course! Unfortunately I had to leave my position at HSSW due to going to college for Animal Rehabilitation, which is why I'm now here on Rover, to stay connected with the animals, as well as to help support my journey! Alls to say, I’m certified in animal safety and Fear Free, with a professional background in animal handling, behavior, and medical needs. I have 3 smaller fur babies, all of which are rescues. Lulu, 12 y/o English Bulldog (still kickin' it, I know!), Piggy 4 y/o Micro-Bully, and Heather an 8 y/o Staffordshire Bull Terrier, who was rescued from a popular dog fighting facility in Houston, TX. This had caused some nervous and defensive behaviors within her, but she has taught me more than any animal has ever taught me, especially on how to manage these types of behavioral situations that feel hopeless. However, through patience and perseverance, today she's living a normal and silly dog life, you would never be able to tell what she has gone through now, she is now my dog that teaches other dogs how to dog properly! Back to why I call them my small fur babies, my family also has a dairy farm of about 30+ cows! Here I also provide basic animal husbandry, and have gained experience in large animal handling and behavior management, so don't worry about your Great Dane or Mastiff! With this I participated in 4-H for about 8 years, helping others on large animal/livestock handling, health, procedures, and agricultural education. Predominantly though, I have grown up with and cared for all different types of dogs. And to not forget the little guys if there's any fellow fish tank enthusiasts out there, I have lots of experience in owning and caring for different types of freshwater fish, including bettas, pea puffers, goldfish, etc. Last but not least, I've also had hamsters personally alongside caring for them professionally. Overall, I have heavy personal and professional experience with all types of animals, whether that's flat-faced or scaly, sleepy or the energy of 10 huskies, and from the smallest to the biggest pets, whether that's literally, mentally, or in their heart. If you've made it this far, thank you so much for your time and trust, and I hope all is well for you and yours! :) I'm currently in college for Animal Rehabilitation and for safety reason as of now, I unfortunately cannot do overnights. I'm mostly available during the weekdays, from early morning, to evenings and shorter same-day notice booking will depend on how short of notice due to time, location, and my college class schedule. Weekends are more difficult for me due to personal responsibilities, but I am not completely unavailable, please don't be afraid to ask! You, your pets, and your homes privacy, safety, and quality of care is extremely important to me. If you're unhappy with any service please do not be afraid to let me know so I can do better. Before providing a service I will ask and make sure of any parameters and instructions you might have, and will uphold them. It's also a promise that I will communicate thoroughly with you on general updates, and if I have any questions or concerns, and I will be sure to take pics of your fur baby to share with you! I will do all in my power to give them the same level of care as you would, or if they were my own. As for my home, I have a 6-foot fenced, average sized yard lined with river rock, as well as a side yard bedded with bark dust if your pup prefers to do business there. I currently have 3 female mature dogs, so boarding is very dependent on what you think of your pets compatibility. Due to this boarding is stricter with dogs and puppies rather than small animals but inquiries are always welcome!

About: I’ve grown up caring for animals and have experience pet sitting for dogs of all different sizes, including a Golden Retriever, Great Dane, and Yorkie! I’ve also pet sat for two cats over the past five years, both of whom required plenty of attention and individualized care. I have a 12-year-old cat of my own who has dealt with ongoing digestive and bathroom issues, so I’m very comfortable handling messes, recognizing behavioral cues, and understanding when an animal needs extra attention. My cat follows a strict daily routine that I consistently stick to because I know how important it is for her health and comfort. These experiences have taught me to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to each pet’s individual needs. I genuinely love animals and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I’m currently working part-time, and my schedule is very flexible! Although my work schedule changes weekly, I’m currently only working about three days a week, which leaves me with plenty of time to dedicate to pet care! I’m able to plan around my shifts and make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I have a fenced, spacious yard, and I live in a cul-de-sac next to a long walking path, making it easy to provide pets with plenty of safe outdoor time and exercise. My home is free of hazards, and there are no spaces where an animal could become trapped or get lost. I also have a basket filled with pet toys, along with cameras monitoring both the backyard and front yard for added safety.

“Amanda was wonderful with my dogs. They are older, one is blind and needed extra special attention. Amanda gave them lots of care and even followed up after to see how they were doing. She is wonderful and I plan on using her a lot more!”
“Jaide is awesome and I feel really lucky that she will now be coming weekly to stay with Aery! She was very understanding and open to all of my initial care information and Aery’s first sit went great, so I know Jaide took the precautions I asked for seriously as Aery is high needs. All in all, Jaide did very well in caring for Aery! Definitely recommend and I am so grateful!”

“This was my first experience using Rover, and to be honest, I was initially worried. After asking a couple of pet sitters, I believe I made the best decision in choosing Amaya. I had the pleasure of having Amaya take care of my beloved cat, Baloo, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and dedication she provided. Throughout her visits, Amaya went above and beyond to ensure Baloo's well-being. She consistently updated me with detailed messages, keeping me informed about Baloo's meals, water refreshments, litter box cleaning, and even the extra effort to engage him in play and brushing. What truly stood out was Amaya's patience and understanding of Baloo's shy nature. She took the time to let him come out and get used to her presence on his own terms, resulting in heartwarming progress. The updates she provided, such as Baloo coming out for pets and brushing, truly reflect her commitment to creating a comfortable and trusting environment for him. Amaya demonstrated not only professionalism but also genuine care and affection towards Baloo. Her efforts to make each visit a positive experience for him were evident, and I'm grateful for the progress she achieved in getting him to warm up. I highly recommend Amaya for her exceptional pet sitting services. Baloo and I are fortunate to have found someone so dedicated and caring. Thank you, Amaya, for your outstanding service!”

“Shyan treated my dogs with the best possible care!! From the meet and greets to the dog walks to the visits in my backyard, she is amazing. I work long shifts and need my babies to get some one on one and she does a great job. Her pictures and explanation of the visit are top notch. Thank you Shyan!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life. From feeding, grooming, play, and more, I’ve taken time to figure out the best approaches to ensure our little living room tigers are cared for. Im currently a graduate student so my schedule is pretty flexible for play dates, feedings, medication delivery or grooming. Mornings and evenings are the best times for me to visit your furry friends. I have a catio on my terrace for outside enrichment, plenty of toys and a mini garden full of lavender and catnip. I also have two well-behaved cats of my own.

When I had to leave suddenly for an emergency trip, Kelsey stepped in without hesitation and took wonderful care of my dog, Oli. She's responsible and reliable, and she kept me updated the entire time I was away with pictures which gave me so much peace of mind during an already stressful situation. It's clear Kelsey genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I'd trust her with Oli again in a heartbeat, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a dependable, caring pet sitter.

First time using Karalynn and it went so so great! My dogs were so happy and very settled when we got home. Its amazing that they can be in their safe space and have someone come in and make them feel safe while we are gone. Binx cat was playful and friendly while we were gone which not everyone can get from him! Amazing

I can’t recommend Krystal highly enough as a pet sitter. When I had to leave suddenly for an emergency trip, she stepped in without hesitation and took wonderful care of my dog, Oli.

I’d trust her with Oli again in a heartbeat, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a dependable, caring pet sitter.

Vivian has been great with our new puppy, Ruby. She takes her outside to potty, works on some training, gives her love and attention, and been especially helpful with making sure she is clean and comfortable since Ruby has had GI issues. She has really gone above and beyond and we highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Ridgefield is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 6,237 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Ridgefield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Ridgefield 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!
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.
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
