“My dogs were taken care of very well and the house was all cleaned up and put together when I got home. They definitely took the stress out of making sure ny pets were taken care of while I was out of town!”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and a registered nurse. I moved from Washington state over 6 years ago and now reside and work in Seaside. I have years experience off and on petsitting. Prior getting into nursing I was an LVT (licensed veterinary tech) for approximately 10 years. Life happens so I got into nursing. So I really miss being with animals and have enjoyed partime petsitting to be with them. I have experience working on handling dogs specifically pugs for shows and have shown and had a blast. I love dogs but also enjoy all an animals and have experience with cats, large animals including horses, donkeys, goats, cows, aquariums including tropical and salt, reptiles, birds including african greys, chickens and ducks. My clients appreciate that I have vet tech experience and am able to spot problems and am good in times of emergency. II work as a community nurse Monday thru Friday 8-4:30 and try to be flexible. I can also watch your dog(s) for up to 2 hours while youre in town so you could go out to dinner. I usually do not do over nights but I am sometimes free for this... So if you need someone for your furbabies, just ask! I am able and enjoy to pet sit part time since I work fulltime. I can try to be flexible and am more available on weekends than weekends. I am only able to do visits, and dog walking currently with my schedule and rare occasions able to stay overnight depending on situation and time.
About: I’ve babysat and checked in on both dogs and cats in high school and to this day. My parents currently have a French Brittany that we all dote over. I’ll make sure I give as much care to your own best friend. Full availability, I am home for the holidays and know other people are trying to do the same. I have some obligations but they’re few and far between. I will feed, clean up accidents or litter, give walk/jogs/hikes, pet if they enjoy touch, and play time if they’re the playful kind. Let me know your needs.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I love dogs and cats of all kinds, breeds, and sizes. Neighbors, family, friends, and colleagues have trusted me to watch, feed, walk, and play with their furry family. I currently own two cats and have in the past owned small and medium-sized dogs. I have experience caring for senior and special needs fur babies. I am currently available from 10am-6pm Monday-Friday with negotiable availability on weekends. I recently graduated with my Master of Social Work and am looking to make supplemental income while searching for a full time job, however, I am looking to create and sustain lasting pet care relationships. I follow the rules of the person hiring me and ask questions when and if they come up. I appreciate heads up about any behaviors and temperaments of furry companions that I should be aware of.
“We couldn’t have asked for a more caring and sweet soul to look after our fur babies! Shalya was pleasant, communicative, and punctual. We received regular updates/photos and a detailed account of the pups activities. Blessed to have found her when we needed her. If you need a sitter, don’t hesitate to book this one!! 🔮💖👏”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Seaside
Linneah did a great job keeping our active bird dog exercised, our indoor cat cared for, and our house in good shape during her stay. She went out of her way to make an extra stop after her stay had ended because of unforeseen travel delays. We would recommend her for future pet sitting stays!

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 Seaside 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 Seaside 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 Seaside 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.
