“Repeat stay with Christian coming and staying in my place with the dogs so they could keep their routine. As last visit, Christian did great. Dogs were happy, got plenty of play time and no issues for the dogs due to being able to stay home. The dogs love Christian. My bigger dog does not like people in her house and barks like crazy when folks visit. She meets Christian at the door, works out she knows him (and this was just their second stay with him) and she doesn't bark. Huge sign she is comfortable with him.”
“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!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my dog buddy since I was 15, my cats since I was 14 and I used to take care of my neighbors dog, I use he/him pronouns. I pet sit for members of my family and people around the neighborhood, my hours are flexible I’m able to meet requirements of any family or client. I would always make sure the animal I’m taking care of is fed, hydrated and taken out for the bathroom or walks, I’m fully backgrounded and have very good references.
“Jen is amazing. She took great care of our dogs. Calming one down when I balloon landed in the back yard! She followed our instructions to the letter and even brought in our trash/recycling containers without being asked. She communicates and sends updates and pics, which we REALLY appreciate! We can enjoy our trips knowing Jen is with them!!!”
“Junbo is fantastic! I can't recommend her enough. She took care of my cat and high energy puppy when I was out of town for a week. She not only took my dog for a walk but took him to different hikes everyday. She takes care of the pets not just out of responsibility and accountability but also the enthusiasm and joy of being out with them. She truly enjoys the company and loves the pets she's tasked to take care of. She sends lots of photos and videos and gives frequent updates on their daily routine. Again, I highly recommend her for all the services that she offers. Will certainly hire her gain for house sitting. Thank you Junbo!!!”
“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!”
“Dima was one of the best Rover experiences that I ever had, he was very attentive to details, on time, left home immaculate, and most importantly took care of the pups excellently! He kept us in the loop with the regular updates, and we felt very comfortable knowing the pups are in good hands! I highly recommend Dima for everyone looking for a Rover and I would definitely reach out to him for future pet sitting needs. Thanks again Dima!”
“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!”
“Hands down best dog sitter experience I’ve ever had on this app. Brandy was so sweet and took care of both of my dogs how I would. It’s hard to trust people with your dogs but Brandy is soooo trustworthy.”

“Eric is the perfect match for our dog, Calypso (Caly). He has taken such good care of her and made sure that we were kept informed of their daily activities. We appreciate that we felt so comfortable with Eric's care that our trip was more enjoyable as a result. We will (and have) booked Eric again as a dog sitter for our Caly!”
“Kyli was fantastic! Very communicative and professional. She was great with our overly friendly golden retriever and two cats that can often times be reclusive. Cats warmed right up to her and we got many photo updates. Highly recommend!”
“Robert was ABSOLUTELY fabulous! He was patient, thoughtful, and really communicative. From the moment we requested a sitter until after the service was complete, he was swift to respond, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated on all the pet care rituals. He did not flinch when the breaker needed to be reset during a housesit, and he took such wonderful care of our tankgirl, Bailey. 5 stars, 2 thumbs way up, and a 3 snaps in Z formation! Highly recommend.”
“Veronika was absolutely wonderful to work with when we took a 2-week vacation recently. She was a dream come true while watching our dog and our house and was in constant communication despite an 8-hour time difference. Her care of our dog was impeccable-she picked up on every detail and followed all the instructions so our dog had a totally consistent environment. Veronika has a huge heart for both pets and Owners and I can fully recommend her services. We received 3-4 pictures per day and she always responded to every text; sent questions when needed; let us know if something was happening at the house and supported us with a few small tasks that popped up while we were away. Our dog is sad today now that we are back and Veronika is no longer with her and that pretty much demonstrates how wonderful she was in her care and kindness to our family.”
“Carissa did a great job with Tater. I had Carissa watch Tater while i was out of town for several days / night and she did a great job caring for him and giving him the attention and getting him the exercise he needed as a one year old Cavapoo. Would definitely use Carissa in the future.”
“Russell was great with our older dog and cat. He kept us updated and took our dog on great walks. He also took good care of our home. Even watered plants without being asked. He can be relied upon ti take great care of pets and home”

Juniper is the BEST! We have done both drop-in visits and overnight stays. She genuinely cares about our fur babies and gives them a lot of love and cuddles, which gives us peace of mind when traveling. She is patient when our dog get a bit stubborn. We get detailed updates from her which I can tell she pays a lot attention to details. She is very communicative and reliable!
Brandi was an excellent fit for our family of fur babies. She gave us lots of updates with pictures and videos as well as giving us heads up on the schedule for each day. She followed all the instructions we left and even went above and beyond sweeping up after our enthusiastic diggers (cats). While our dog likes most people, she was certainly smitten with Brandi and on her best behavior. More impressively, our 2 very shy rescue cats also warmed up to her faster than any other sitter we've had. My plant collection is also happy and safe which I really appreciate. I would highly recommend Brandi to any family with a snuggle bug that wants plenty of updates. We're looking forward to booking with her again for the peace of mind and so our dog can have more time with her new bestie. 😁
I wish a 10 star rating was an option!! Ashley is, hands down, the best catsitter we’ve ever had. We have two cats and asked Ashley to housesit with them while we left for our wedding/honeymoon. She gave the sweetest photo updates — we knew they were being treated like royalty. Not only that, but she took such fantastic care of our apartment while we were out (and even baked us bread for when we got home 🥹); a pet whisperer and just an all-around gem of a person!
What can I see about Sage? She is an outstanding young lady who stepped up and came and looked after our two puppies at short notice giving them a first class treatment making them happy and Com at all points fed them as to our instructions and exercise them as to a instructions and she’s a credit to herself and anyone would be happy to have her look after your pets thank you very much for all your hard work
Bryan is an exceptional overnight pet sitter! He cared for our two high-energy dogs and our cat for five days and treated them like they were his own. His experience really showed—he was comfortable administering medication to our dog, followed all feeding instructions carefully, and made sure everyone got plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. Bryan kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and videos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and well cared for. We also came home to a clean house—he even washed the linens and dishes! We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely use Bryan again. Highly recommend!
Chantal was such a game changer for us! Our dog, Bear gets so nervous when he sees our luggages come out so we knew we needed someone experienced to care for him while we weee away. Chantal followed all our instructions, communicated with us often & sent photos and videos per our request. Upon our return, Bear was clearly loved on, cared for, played with, etc. Chantal also cared for our home, was able to administer medicine in Bear’s food, & all around brought us peace!
Fantastic and flexible dog walker, and overall pet sitter. Nika is easy to talk to and communicate with. Our pets loved her. She went above and beyond to take our dog to Marymoor Dog Park, one of his favorites for some fun. Also flexible - when our return flight was delayed a day, she was willing to pick up an extra day.

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 Sammamish 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 Sammamish 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 Sammamish 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.
