“This is our second time having John watch the boys and he is so great with them! They were excited and enjoyed their time with him. He gave us updates and pictures twice a day and followed the instructions we left. He even went above and beyond, getting more treats for our boys and doing a couple small tasks for us. We can't recommend John enough and will rebook in the future. Thank you!”
“Brooklin has been at my house a couple of times now and has been great! I have my dog, 2 foster dogs (all large breeds) and a cat. She was wonderful with following some complex instructions to manage one dog's behavior issues and got out for plenty of exercise with my big guys. Would most certainly recommend to others and will use her again!”
“Stuart did an amazing job! Gizmo was well cared for and when he got into something on the street Stuart immediately called my vet to make sure he didn’t need to come in, then promptly checked in with me. Also left my apartment very clean!”
“Shelli was a great house sitter! She was on time, provided wonderful photos of her interactions with our dogs and clear communication while we were gone. We arrived home to happy dogs and a clean house. Would recommend as a house sitter and will hire again.”
“I came home to a very happy cat and clean house. This is my second time with Meghan and I will book her again when I next travel. Meghan allows me to travel worry free.”
“Dash was a dream with my pup Pepper! She was a great house guest and patient and loving with my dog, who can be picky about who she trusts! I can’t recommend Dash enough! Thank you!”
“Shalindra was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Kahlua, while we were away. She went above and beyond in every way, even accommodating a last-minute flight delay and staying later than planned on her birthday to make sure Kahlua was cared for. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, and it was clear Kahlua had a great time with all of the park adventures and extra attention. When we returned, Kahlua was happy, freshly bathed, and our home was spotless. Shalindra was incredibly respectful of our house and treated both our dog and our home with so much care. We felt completely at ease knowing Kahlua was in such capable hands and would gladly trust Shalindra again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“As always, Hunter was great with our two high-energy dogs while we were traveling! Very reliable and he’s always our first choice sitter, well continue hiring him for all future travels!!”
About: Raised around dogs (and cats) and would love to care for your pets in my home or yours. Comfortable with senior dogs as well as others. I am retired and available any time. I would need a couple of days' notice, preferably. I live in an apartment with a beautiful dog-walking area and nearby parks to walk in. I no longer have pets of my own, having just lost my 17-year-old Rat Terrier. I am comfortable with all dogs and cats. I can administer medications and make sure they feel safe with me. I don't push, but let them come to me when they feel ready. Separation from you is anxiety-inducing, and I do my best to calm them and let them now they are not alone.
“Tim is great! He is a clear and proactive communicator who asked good questions, shared updates, and kept our sensitive dog happy and relaxed (while taking good care of our home). Would definitely book Tim again.”
“MyQueena is wonderful! She took such great care of my two pups and gave lots of nice updates with photos and video. Was appreciative that she was flexible when I mixed up dates 🙃. Hope to book with MyQueena again!”
“Ravan was awesome! She took such good care of my dog while I was away, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She took him for walks and to the park. Even my plants were watered!! I will absolutely book with her again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring sitter.”
“Mary stayed with my dog and cat while I was out of town and they had such a nice time with her. My cat took all his daily medicine really well for the first time with a sitter. My dog enjoyed hanging out with her in the yard. Both enjoyed cuddling with her on the couch! She did a great job taking care of my pets and loving them like they were her own!”
“Ali was great! Dogs seemed to like her and were in good spirits wheb we got home. Ali was very responsive whenever we checked in. Will definitely keep her in mind for the future!”
About: Hi! I'm Shirley, a passionate animal lover who believes every walk should be an adventure. Whether your pup loves a brisk walk, extra sniffing time, or plenty of belly rubs, I'm here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm reliable, attentive, and excited to get to know your furry family member. I can't wait to meet your best friend and become their new favorite walking buddy! I work from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. They won't be left alone for long periods and will receive regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love. I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home while you're away. In my home, your pet will be treated like part of the family. I have a fully fenced yard where they can safely enjoy outdoor time, along with plenty of playtime, attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. I'll follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and at home. For drop-in visits or care in your home, I'll make sure your pet has everything they need during each visit. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or walks, playtime, lots of love and attention, and, of course, plenty of cuddles if they enjoy them. I'll also follow any specific instructions you provide and send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Janine did a great job watching our two dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, and they were happy and well cared for when we got back. We’d definitely trust Janine to watch them again and highly recommend her.”

Brooklin did an incredible job taking care of our dog and 2 cats. She was communicative, and exceptionally in tune with the animals, giving them lots of love and keeping us updated. She also took great care of our home and went out of her way to help with our garden. I highly recommend her and we will absolutely work with her again!
Julie was AMAZING! I was very nervous as a first timer with both my house and fur baby. Julie made me feel at ease and provided the best care for both Amelia and our home. We got daily updates and pictures on how things were going which we greatly appreciated. We chose Julie because of her outstanding reviews and she totally lived up to them. I would 100% recommend Julie for house or dog sitting and she will be my go to person in the future for any upcoming needs. Amelia misses her now that we are home and was sitting by the door of our guest room this morning. She is defiantly the best experience I have ever had with dog sitting or boarding in the past 30 years. The Amelia and I were very happy with the experience.
Satsuki did an amazing job watching Eleanor! As a self-proclaimed anxious, helicopter dog mom, I always dread finding new sitters for my baby. However, Satsuki's excellent communication and vibe completely put me at ease after our meet and greet. She gave me daily updates and let me know the exact moment Eleanor received her medication. I loved getting the frequent photos and mood updates throughout my trip! On top of taking perfect care of my place, she was even kind enough to pick up a package for me. Satsuki is basically a spaniel expert now and truly understands the unique, quirky nature of these velcro breeds. I highly recommend her!
It was the second time we had Joley take care of our animals and it was once again a very positive experience. This time around we had an unexpected situation involving one of my cat’s health and she handled the situation as well as one could expect, she took him to the emergency clinic, communicated with me often and was always very eager to help and make sure my kitty was assisted and safe. I deeply appreciate Joley’s help and would definitely recommend her work.
Highly recommend! Shalindra provided a week of in-home care for our two dogs, a guinea pig and a gecko. She was delightful to work with. The dogs took to her very quickly, and she was affectionately patient with their unique/opposite personalities. I especially appreciated her daily photo and video updates, and how careful she was to ask questions and provide details on anything happening at the house. I felt confident all was well cared-for, and was truly able to enjoy the time away because Shalindra had everything covered at home.
Briana was amazing! She agreed to come by for a short visit before the booked time to meet George and get a walkthrough of his needs and the space, she was super friendly and kind and listened to my rambling list of things to know to take care of George. While I was gone, she sent frequent updates with pictures and descriptions of how he’d been and how they’d played together. George was happy and healthy when I came home and I’m so grateful that she kept him company and took care of him.
As a former vet tech and pet-sitter, I am pretty picky when it comes to my pets. That said, Envee has been my favorite sitter in memorable history. She managed my senior dog and cat's laundry list of medications and quirks without a moment of hesitation. Despite two separate car issues, she still showed up and took my high energy pup, Sierra, on a bunch of "field trips" around town. We got a pretty low key welcome home from Sierra after she'd had so much fun. She was communicative and sent numerous photos every day. As much as I want to have Envee available whenever we need her in the future, it's only fair to share this hidden gem with other pet owners in the area. Highly recommend her to everyone 💚
We had a wonderful experience with Raven. She was a great communicator, kept our home clean and well cared for, and took such amazing care of our pup while we were away. She also sent lots of pictures of all the cuddles and walks, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was happy and in such good hands. We would absolutely use Raven again and highly recommend her!
Cassie was nothing short of amazing! We have an older pup who is hard to leave with anyone who doesn’t u destined her and some needy kitty’s. Cassie stayed at our house and cared for our animals and our house like it was her own. I can’t feel you how much it made our vacation better knowing that everything was in great hands. And coming home was a breeze! I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future when we need a sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - SeaTac
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in SeaTac on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,221 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across SeaTac. 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 SeaTac 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 SeaTac 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 SeaTac 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
