About: Hi to all you pet lovers and pet owners out here in Seattle. If you need your Dog walked, once or daily, or if you need an in home, or an in hotel visit, call me. I'm currently located in the Capital Hil area. Dog or cat or bird. I am a certified Veterinary Asst. I have alot of previous experience. I also have alot of patience as I am the Mother of 3 grown boys and Grandmother of 2. I have taken care of many, many different kinds of animals. Because of my educational experience at the Vet. Asst. program your dog will be extremely safe, and taken care of well. We will only have fun, play, and get good exercise. We can also just hang out where it's cool or warm. Looking forward to meeting with you, and any of your animals!!!! Thanks, Kathy I'm an animal lover from way back and since I don't have any pets of my own I would love to be able to help other people with their animals!! I'd love to take care your cats, birds, and fish too. Hope to be able to help!!! I lno longer live in an apt. that is pet friendly. There are lpts of off leash areas close to the areas I walk, tho!!
“Liberty and Caleb took great care of our old dog! We enjoyed getting pictures and updates about how things were going. We have already booked them for another visit.”
About: Background I was the primary care taker of my family dog since I was 13, including walking, feeding, training, and bathing him. I also trained 2 of my recent family’s puppies (pomeranian and poodle) during summer breaks. For the past 4 years in Seattle, I have been dog sitting my close friends’ dogs ranging from a small maltipoo to a fluffy golden retriever (my profile picture!). During college, I've also house-sat for staff with doggos and worked with small to large dogs at the shelter I volunteer at. I’ve been wanting to get a doggo for myself but still haven’t adopted one because I travel back to Indonesia pretty often. Typical Day for your Doggo I’m currently in a break after school so I will be very free and flexible most of the week. My routine will be adjusted according to your pets’ needs. I enjoy long walks myself so I will take the doggos to walk with me. I also love playing tug of wars and tennis balls fetch if they like that! I will probably out for a couple hours in the weekend doing errands but other than that will spend lots of my time hanging out with the doggos! Living Environment I live in an apartment with a small unfenced grass area for potty. I don’t have any dogs but our place is dog-proofed since we dog-sit for our friends. My go to is cal anderson park but I love going up to greenlake, shoreline hamlin park, and some other parks around to take the doggos for walks especially for longer stays (if the dog is okay with drives ofcourse ☺️)!
“Jennifer was great with our 2 cats! Both of my cats were well fed, their litter boxes were cleaned, and most importantly they both really seemed to warm up to Jennifer in a short period of time! Jennifer was also great with her daily check-ins - she always included a detailed update and photos as well! I will definitely use her again in the future :)”
“Miriam is a fantastic sitter! She’s professional and knowledgeable. I appreciate her attention to detail and the rover cards she would put together so we could stay up-to-date with how our cats were doing! She also went above and beyond to clean up when our cat missed the litter box. We got to come home to a poop-free house with happy cats. Thanks Miriam!”
“Kennedy was amazing with our two fur babies! She was able to spend time with them both, even though we are in the middle of a slow introduction process and they are separate, took care of both of their care needs, and even helped bring up a package for us when we were out of town. She was the best, 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Michelle did an excellent job taking care of Dizzy. Meet-and-greet was thorough and she sent us great photos during each visit. We'll definitely see if she's available the next time we need somebody to take care of our cat.”
“Chelsea handled my slightly difficult cat very well! She sent updates and pictures that added to my comfort and based her interactions in my cat's comfort. I hope I get to work with Chelsea in the future!”
“Rachael helped us give the dogs a walk, potty, and play time while we were at our wedding. This was a huge relief for us and she was very thorough with her questions and in taking care of them!”
“Eleanor is easily the best cat sitter I've ever worked with. Through her detailed updates it was clear she not only cared about my cats, but truly got to know their personalities. Eleanor even spent extra time with them on nights she wasn't busy. She followed (and was patient with) my long list of care requirements and quickly learned how to use our Litter Robot and smart water dish. I'm so grateful to have found Eleanor, she gave me peace of mind while I was away for nearly 3 weeks. She will be my new go-to!”
“I have now used Emily two times to watch my cats while away. Emily is great at updating us and caring for our cats like they are her own. She goes above and beyond to report on their behaviors and anything else during her services. We will continue to use her for future travel plans.”
“Kevin was so great! It was my first time using Rover so I was understandably a bit nervous, but Kevin took great care of my little kitty with lots of fun photos from their time together and entertaining check in summaries. It was such a weight off my shoulders knowing he was there to feed and check in on her. Would absolutely use his services again!”
“Angela took care of our two young cats wile we were out of the country for 2 weeks. She' attentive, always communicated if anything cam up (a little later or earlier than normal), and always was sure to fill out a Rover card for every visit. We plan to use Angela whenever we can when we're out of town, our cats will be in good hands. When we returned from our trip, our cats were happy to see us, but not socially calm and in good spirits thanks to Angela's visits.”
“Akiko is an absolute lifesaver and a true professional! I had a nightmare situation with my leasing office being extremely difficult about keys, and Akiko handled it with so much patience and grace. She even went out of her way to help me grab a package from the lockers. She sends wonderful photo and video updates and interacts with Maru a lot —I loved seeing her fix his 'jungle' tunnel and play with him. She is so observant that she even noticed he was licking himself more often and worked to distract him. I am so grateful to have found someone so caring and reliable. Highly recommend!”
“Brenda is just fabulous. Not only does she take really good care of my kitty, she also makes sure she’s enriching him during the time she spends. I am able to enjoy time away so much easier knowing he’s in good hands and being well cared for!”

Have had the absolute pleasure of having Amber as a cat sitter for years now! She is reliable, caring, and the best with our cats. There is literally no better peace of mind when traveling to know that our cats are in excellent hands and to receive photos of them while we are gone!
Carter was absolutely fantastic! He gave Tobi lots of attention and I loved seeing the check-in photos and videos he sent. He was great at communicating before the first visit and made sure that we were all set before I left for vacation. I would definitely book Carter again!
Tetiana helped with a very last-minute booking and CRUSHED IT. She followed the detailed instructions, was timely in her visits, and super responsive. I felt great knowing my very-shy kitty (who Tetiana never even saw! LOL) was in her care; I will definitely be rebooking with her. Thank you, Tetiana!
Katie was absolutely amazing! Not only did she respond to my anxiety texts (which she really didn't have to do) almost immediately, but she bonded with my cat so well that I actually do believe that he misses her. I loved all the photos that she took during my trip, and she did an incredible job at making sure he was looked after. She also took special care to confirm with me he was comfortable during the heat that we had earlier in the month, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to book with Rover, and will definitely schedule with her again if I need to leave town for an extended period of time.
Sand did a great job taking care of our cat, giving him lots of attention, following all of our instructions, and communicating with lots of detail and photos. Will definitely use her again for future drop in visits and would recommend her to other Rover customers.
Clara is amazing. She's very attentive with our cats, their needs and whatever may come up. Her updates are very precise, detailed, and we love the cute pics she takes during playtime. She gives me peace of mind that our cats are well-cared for during our absence.
Five stars! Katelyn watched our cat Dan for 10 days and was absolutely wonderful. Very attentive, deeply caring, and she sent lots of great photos. She stayed for at least 30 minutes for all 20 drop-in visits and followed all of our instructions to the letter. I couldn't recommend her more highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Seattle on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,851 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Seattle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Seattle. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
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.
