“This was our first time using Dmytro and it was great! Fast and consistent communication, worked well with multiple changes to the visit and sent pictures of two happy dogs!”
“Justelle was fantastic and did a great job with our pups! We arrived home and they were clearly very happy :). She took great care of our house as well, sent pics throughout, and replied quickly to all messages. Will absolutely use again and recommend her to everyone!”
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.
“Dari was amazing with our furbabies! We had Dari house sit for a few days while we were away, and we couldn't have been happier. She took wonderful care of our two cats and puppy, and even our shy kitty warmed up to her almost right away, which says a lot. She sent us sweet photos and updates throughout the stay, so we never had to wonder how everyone was doing. When we got home, all three pets were calm and relaxed, and everything was just as we left it. We'd absolutely book Dari again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. 🫶🏼”
“Dima did a wonderful job watching our 8 month vizsla puppy and two cats! He was communicative and took great care of our home for over a week. We loved the daily photo/video updates of our pets. 10/10 recommend for house and pet sitting!”
“Moriah watched my collie mix while I was gone and it was such a pleasure. She did a great job, especially managing my high energy dog and my dog’s medication. I look forward to booking her again next time I need a dog sitter.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Samantha and William took wonderful care of our dog, Benji, as well as our home. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and they sent regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. They followed Benji's routines, and we came home to a happy dog and a spotless home. Highly recommend! We look forward to booking with them again for a future vacation!”
“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”
“Teresa is the BEST! She is your Rover go-to! We had such an amazing experience and look forward to booking with her again. She took amazing care of our 2 dogs & cat. Truly treated them like her own and showed them so much love, which of course means the world to us. She sent so many updates and pictures, which we couldn’t have been happier about! I can never have too many pictures :’) It made us feel reassured while we were away. She handled our very energetic pup so wonderfully, as well. We can’t thank Teresa enough and I highly recommend to anyone looking to book! <3”
“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!”
“Zubia always does a wonderful job. We have used her for each and every service she offers and has always went above our expectations. Her communication is timely and give continuous updates as well as photos.”
About: hello, i'm just a friendly cat mama but i've always lived and taken care of dogs in the past. i've had my cat for 5+ years! I'm available on weekday and weekends. I also have a cat so your pet will need to be okay with that as well, if you need boarding services. I have all the necessary cat supplies, food, etc needed to take care of any cat as I have one as well. Unfortunately, I cannot board any dogs because my cat does not like dogs.
About: I am an avid pet lover of all types. I own two dogs and two cats and have been a pet owner for my entire like. I love all animals big and small. I have a flexible schedule and come mornings or evenings. I prefer to stay close to Sammamish/Issaquah. If you are outside that area..just ask and I will see if I can accommodate. I prefer home visits to care for cats or dogs but I can take one small/medium dog into my home. I would need to have a meet and greet with. my dogs first.
“Sanuthi did a fantastic job taking care of our cats and house while we were away. She thoroughly reviewed what we do for them and asked great questions, and I felt very comfortable leaving our cats and home in her care. She sent messages and pictures while we were away, and everything seemed to go smoothly! I would definitely hire her again!”
“Gabby took very good care of our Rhodesian Ridgeback Atlas. She was also very respectful of our home and is at the top of our Rolodex to rehire next time 👍”
About: I've been walking dogs for three years and been around them my whole life. It's the part of my week I actually look forward to. Your dog keeps their routine. Same meals, same walks, same order. You show me how it works at the walkthrough and I stick to it. I'm comfortable with older dogs too. I've handled some with limited mobility and I've given medication on a schedule. I speak English and Spanish. Hablo español I'm available weekdays and weekends. Midday walks and drop-ins are open Monday through Friday, so your dog gets a break while you're at work. For house sitting I stay overnight and keep your dog's full routine, with daytime check-ins on weekdays. I serve Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, and nearby. Book a free meet and greet to get started. I don't board dogs at my place. I come to you. Your dog sleeps in their own bed and keeps their own schedule, which is usually the easiest thing for them. We start with a walkthrough so I get your dog right. How much they eat and when. Any medication and the trick to getting them to take it. Which leash and harness. Where the food and the cleanup bags live. Your vet and a backup contact. What your dog does when they're nervous and what helps them settle. I write it all down and I work from those notes. Keys get handed off in person or through a lockbox. I never leave one out. I never put your address on a tag. Leash stays on anytime we're outside. No dog parks or off-leash areas unless you tell me your dog is good with it. I check the gate and the door behind me every single time. You'll get a photo and a few lines every morning and every evening. Not a running commentary. Just enough that you never wonder how it's going. I have a car and your dog rides secured. If they need a vet I'll get them there and call you from the parking lot. We'll sort out how payment works beforehand so nobody is figuring that out in an exam room. If I can't reach you I'll try your backup contact and I'll act. I'm not going to sit on something waiting for a text back. On house sits I bring in the mail and take the bins out. I don't have people over. Your place stays yours.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sammamish
Clancy was great! She treated my dogs like they were hers and we came home to very happy pups. The house was left clean - she even washed the sheets and towels. My one dog had a seizure while Clancy was with them and she handled it like an experienced pet parent and sitter. Very grateful she was here for that situation.
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
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!
Sienna did an amazing job watching Remy! She followed our instructions perfectly, was great about accommodating a last minute booking request, and took good care of our home. Remy really enjoyed his time with her and was a happy pup when we got back. We highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Sammamish is $63 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $139 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 7,447 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sammamish. 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 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.
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 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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.
