“Andrew took great care of Shadow while we were out of town. He sent updates and pictures which gave us peace of mind. He even braved the April snow storm to make sure Shadow was taken care of. Our pup was happy and healthy when we got home.”
About: I am a North Bend native and resident and have been petsitting for valley residents since I was a teen. I worked for 5 years at the local pet supply store, gaining more clients. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have many years of experience greeting and working with dogs across behavior spectrums including high-drive, reactive, separation and general anxiety, jumping, leash pulling, and more. I have extensive experience with kittens as young as 2 weeks and puppies as young as 6 weeks and many common health issues that can occur at this age. I can confidently administer medication for cats and dogs including but not limited to: eye drops/gel, ear drops, oral liquid, and oral pills. I am very familiar and confident in feeding different food types including kibble with toppers, freeze dried, raw food, and canned food. I am free between the hours of 9:30am and 2pm on weekdays and am available to drop in visits and walks during this time. I can also do evening drop-ins upon request as I never want to book more than one drop in a night. I can do weekends upon request for the same reason. I always want to meet the pets before drop ins when possible to replicate their routine and get to know their behavior so my time with them is as smooth and easy on them as possible. I am well versed in reading dog and cat body language and will adapt. I adore loving on pets when it is welcome and enjoyed but will always respect the need for space and slow introductions. After working at the local pet store for 5 years, I have greeted and worked with thousands of dogs and am always receptive of advice and know there is always more to learn.
“Sara was accommodating and personable with me and great with my two 14-year-old cats. She was able to medicate Esteban and got both of my cats to warm up to her by the end of the stay. It warmed my heart to see them seeking out pets and cuddles!”
“Amazing working with Lexi! She was extremely communicative and efficient, making sure all the details were handled without me having to check in on anything. I came home to a very clean home, smelling fresh and two very happy kitties!”
About: Hey there! My name is Matt and I am 32 years old. I have graduated from Washington State University where I received my Bachelor's of Science in Psychology. While in college, I loved volunteering at the nearby Humane Society and spending time with the dogs as I missed mine back home very much. I am familiar with a variety of dog breeds, as they have been a part of my life since I was a kid. As far as my interests and hobbies, I love to stay active by participating in sports, yoga, running, hiking, anything that gets me moving. I thoroughly enjoy dog walking and/or taking them on a run depending on what your dog prefers. My schedule is very flexible. Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to meeting you and your pet 🙂 My schedule remains flexible, I usually walk anytime after 10am. If you need in home services or house/dog sitting, I can provide that as well. The only service I can't provide is overnights at my own residence, other than that I'm open to pretty much any opportunities 👍 Typically I won't house pets at my residence, I could provide this service for short periods of time and no overnights. However, I do have a small yard that is fenced in.
“Bell did a GREAT job taking care of Purrman! Very conscientious, a good communicator and really cared about our fur baby (who will lay belly-up on your feet if he likes you— we call it a “Tootsie Roll!”). Highly recommend!!”
About: I have lived and cared for a dogs for the last 10 years, and now have a pup of my own. I’d love to help out with your animals especially if I can bring my high energy Australian shepherd along for the fun! I’m in Snoqualmie and have a flexible schedule at the moment. I’m currently looking for my next full time role so have more time for caring for pets at the moment. I exercise my puppy once or twice a day so adding another companion would be fun. We have a partially fenced in yard at the moment so the dog will need to be leashed while in the yard. We use an electric fence for our pup.
About: I had a dog for my whole life, and cared for him from puppy to senior, so I know how to care for a dog at any stage of its wonderful life! I have also watched dogs of all sizes, from a chihuahua to a weimaraner! I am very active and would love to walk and play with your furry friend! I am VERY available this summer, and would love to care for your pet! I have a big car love to be outside and active! I am very clean and organized, trustworthy, and reliable. I am devoted to creating a safe environment for your pet! I make sure to clean up all areas and make sure your pet is healthy, happy, and comfortable!
“Skylar checked in on our pup while we were out of town. She was very candid about asking questions (i.e: it’s going to be snowing, should I close the doggy door? Etc...) which I really appreciated. We could tell our little girl was being well taken care of in our absence. We’d recommend her for sure!”
About: Hi! I joined a local organization called Purrfect Pals at 16 years old. It was a place dedicated to giving our feline friends a chance for or they provided a happy life for our feline friends where they could live out the rest of their days in peace. Old or young, healthy or sick, grumpy or happy. They all had a home at perfect pals! I strive to follow the same ideals and treat all furry friends as my own family. I grew up with dogs and cats and have spent my entire life around them. Often being called a Dog or Cat whisper (Though i always deny it!) I know how difficult it is to trust your baby with a stranger, I promise to treat your baby as mine. As I would wish no less for my Loki. Hi, Honestly it’s only three days out of the week that I need to limit the exact times that i can provide potty breaks. I work three 9s and two 6.5s, while having Thursday and Fridays off work. I often start early in the morning and am off work by early to mid afternoon, which provides plenty of time for our furry friends even on days I do work my other job! As long as i’m aware of the time frame I can be pretty dang flexible! Base Expectations for Cat Care: Food! water refresh, litter box cleaning, brushing (if cat likes) and play time (this length and type depending on cat (please tell me all about your kitty!)), Base Expectations for Dog Care: Feeding, water refill, potty break! play time! please tell me what your dog likes! I prefer to meet the dog where they are :) *I’ll follow all feeding schedules as best I can!
About: I have experience working on this app since around 2017 in the Seattle metro area. I love animals of all kind and have experience with extra large to extra small. I am currently available full time. This means I will stop accepting requests at 40 hours per week. My weekends and weekdays are open for pet care. I will gladly follow all instructions left to keep your fur baby satisfied and safe while you are away during our house sittings and/or visits.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my family. But I love all animals. I have pet sat for several family friends so I am used to adapting to animal needs. Whether it be a dog, cat, or fish, I am happy to provide care and entertainment to your pet. Currently I am in grad school so I do have some classes, however there is a lot of availability in my schedule especially if you are looking for furry friend to go on a late afternoon walk. If I am in a client’s home I will always make sure to either have your pet on a leash or in a fenced in area, depending on permissions. My go to is follow the owner’s instructions, and if something comes up I will ask or take the safest option (ie leash always while outside). If a client’s pet is to stay with me, I do have a small dog park I can take them to.
“My gosh, I didn’t think they made em’ this good! I almost don’t want to write an honest review because she might be too busy to ever watch our cats again! Daria went above a beyond. Making efforts to connect with our kittens, play with them, troubleshoot the automatic feeders, and send a minimum of 30 photos a day. Her communication was excellent and put us at ease while on our trip. She didn’t miss a single day, was timely, and showed true compassion and care for our animals. She is ours now. Get your own. Just kidding. But seriously.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverbend
Susannah did GREAT with our cat who is quite finicky and generally doesn't like anyone except her two humans, our cat quickly warmed up to this true animal lover. Our cat also has a very specific diet, and Susannah was understanding about how important it is for us to keep her on her special feeding schedule, followed all instructions perfectly, we are extremely pleased and very appreciative of Susannah's help over the 6 days we were away and will definitely request Susannah again!
I am so happy to have found Reagan as a pet sitter to my cat Momo. This is the second time she has cared for my cat, and I will continue to book her. She is dedicated, loving, and so thorough. My cat thrives when she is cared by Reagan, something I am so thankful for. Thank you!
Lisa is simply the best. We were gone for nine whole days and I had no reservations/worries at all. We even had a mishap with our gecko’s heat lamp bulb needing to be replaced and she offered to go out and get one for us. Love knowing I have someone I can rely on 100% for my animals while I’m gone.
Griffin was great while my wife and I were out of town! He took care of our two male cats, sent lots of pictures and left detailed notes after his visits. He was incredibly easy to communicate with, responsive and followed our instructions. We will definitely re-book with him in the future!
Darcie was fantastic! She came by in the afternoon’s to help us with our elderly dog when we were out of town on vacation. Darcie even went above and beyond as our house lost power for several hours during the winter and she took our dog with her to help keep him warm. Highly recommend Darcie and we will definitely use her again if she is available in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
