“Carter has been an amazing sitter for Termite. Always attentive, proactive, and accommodating. I have full confidence Termite is in the best hands when I have to be away, Carter sent many pictures and videos of her happy and content during the long 3 week stay. Carter is my go-to sitter for Termite!”


“Marie took great care of my boy Jay, and I was able to travel out of town with peace of mind. Jay had a great time playing with her while I was gone, and loved to see the cute pics and videos of him with the cat toys! This was my first time with a cat sitter and could not have asked for a better experience.”

“Michelle was a delight and so caring for my cats! I felt at ease having her in my home. She sent pictures everyday! Definitely will have Michelle stay again!”

“Marta was so kind to work with and took great care of Talisman while I was gone. She is very punctual, has great communication, and a very loving demeanor with the pets. I will certainly book again.”

“Daniel is simply the best. My cats absolutely adore him and leaving him with my cats always brings me complete comfort knowing my cats are in the best of hands. Also Dan’s fun daily reports are the delight of my day!”


“The absolute perfect sitter - we’ve never seen Cream be so playful and happy with anyone other than Whidbey (their resident cat), and Sudharshini sends us copious amounts of videos and pictures every day. She truly cares. We have found our go-to sitter!”

“Andii took such good care of my kitties and my apartment while I was away on a trip. She followed my instructions well, asked good clarifying questions, communicated clearly, and sent lots of pictures and videos!”

“Alison went above and beyond for our cats, while we were out of town. I had never used the app before and she made sure to update us every day giving us peace of mind. Will definitely request her services again in the future.”

“Jessica is my favorite cat sitter I've worked with since using Rover! She was extremely communicative, making sure I knew when she'd be over, and sent me tons of pictures/videos playing with my boys. She made an effort to accommodate my schedule with getting/returning the keys, and took the job on short notice. She even carried in a heavy Chewy package for me without me even asking her to. I will be hiring her again next time I'm out of town!”

“Shelby was very communicative, responsive, and timely. Our two cats warmed up to her quickly on the first meeting. The photos we received towards the end of our trip show two desperate cats begging for pets, high praise from them. Her key drop box absolutely made leaving and returning to town less stressful.”

About: Walks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love I’m here for all of it! 🐶 I genuinely enjoy being around pets and love getting to know each one’s unique personality. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. 🐾 I have a consistent work schedule, so I’m mainly available in the morning 7-8am and evenings 6-8pm and flexible on my days off. I’m flexible with planning ahead and will always make sure I have enough time to give your pet plenty of attention and care. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll follow their feeding schedule, make sure they have fresh water, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and take them outside for walks or bathroom breaks as needed. I also pay attention to their individual personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and independent, or just looking for some extra cuddles.
About: Experienced Care for Medium & Large Dogs • Downtown Seattle 🐾 I have spent my life around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for many different personalities, ages, and energy levels. Over time, I have become especially comfortable and experienced with medium and large breeds, including Shepherds, Retrievers, Huskies, Pointers, Bulldogs, Boxers, and other active working or sporting dogs. I’m comfortable handling strong dogs on leash, structured walking routines, feeding schedules, oral medications, senior dogs, and dogs that need a calm and confident person around them. I especially enjoy dogs that like to walk, explore, play fetch, and spend time outdoors. I pay close attention to each dog’s body language and personality rather than treating every dog the same. I live in First Hill, just minutes from downtown Seattle. Because I live in an apartment without a private yard, dogs staying with me receive structured outdoor walks and potty breaks throughout the day rather than simply being let into a yard. I keep my bookings limited so I can give each dog plenty of individual attention. Boarding stays of 2 nights or more include complimentary brushing to help keep your dog fresh and comfortable. 🐾 About Senel I’m retired and home full-time, which allows me to build my day around the dogs staying with me. I have a flexible schedule and am available seven days a week. I grew up in Turkey in an environment where dogs and other animals were part of everyday life, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. My style of care is calm, attentive, and structured. I follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, house rules, and safety instructions carefully. I also enjoy sending owners regular photos and short videos. I know how reassuring it is to actually see that your dog is relaxed, eating, walking, playing, and settling comfortably while you are away. For longer stays, my goal is not simply to “watch” your dog. I want them to develop a routine here and feel comfortable enough that my home becomes familiar to them. What I’d Like to Know About Your Dog Before booking, please tell me about: • Feeding schedule and portion size • Potty and walking routine • Medications or health conditions • Behavior around other dogs • Leash behavior • Food or toy guarding • Separation anxiety • Sleeping routine • Fears or triggers • Anything your dog should never do or be exposed to I particularly enjoy caring for medium and large dogs, and I’m very comfortable with active, intelligent breeds that benefit from regular walks, structure, and interaction. Every booking is considered individually so I can make sure your dog and my home environment are a good match. I'm retired, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life I have a flexible schedule and I'm available seven days a week, morning to evening. I'm never in a rush between visits: your pet always gets my full time and attention. I already care for my son's dog here in Seattle every week, so regular visits are a natural part of my routine. All my visits take place in your home, where your pet feels safest. I follow your care instructions exactly feeding amounts, medications, house rules and I never let a dog off leash outdoors. I always make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep your home clean and tidy, and treat it with full respect. After every visit I send you photos and a short update, so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved.
“This is the first time that Natalie has taken care of my kitties and I'd definitely have her back. Fabulous communicator - kitties and house in great shape upon my return.”

“Leah is a wonderful and thoughtful cat sitter. I appreciate the messages sent while I was away. I also appreciate the care Leah took of my home. Leah is professional, friendly, caring, and dependable. I want to continue working with Leah whenever I need to leave town. I highly recommend Leah and would love her to care for Pito again.”

About: I've had dogs since I was 8 yeara old, so I've spent 26 years learning how they think, what they need, and how to tell when something's off. I treat every pet like my own. What you can expect: Lots of attention, play, and cuddles, tailored to your pet's personality Your pet's routine followed closely (feeding, walks, meds, sleep) Photo and video updates so you can relax while you're away Calm, patient care for shy, senior, or energetic pets Dogs and cats both welcome. I'm comfortable with different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I'm currently working as a part-time contractor in Seattle, mainly home office, so I have a lot of flexibility. I live in Central District, and I have a car and a bike. I have a beautiful cat, and my husband supports me while I'm not at home. Since I live in an apartment in Seattle, I prefer to take care of your dog and cat at your home so it feels more comfortable.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Seattle
Danielle is incredible and such a valued, dependable help when our fur babies need checking in on! We are always so grateful for her going above and beyond during her visits to make our two cats (one with medical administration) feel cared for! Thank you Danielle!!

I highly recommend Julie! She was incredibly sweet, gentle, and attentive with my cat. My cat had recently undergone a dental cleaning and was dealing with severe diarrhea and skin irritation afterward, so I was pretty worried about leaving her and wanted someone who could keep a close eye on her recovery. She gave me so much peace of mind by being very communicative, responding quickly, and sending plenty of photos and detailed updates about her stool, appetite, and any vomiting. She was also comfortable giving her eye drops and went above and beyond by cleaning up diarrhea accidents, wiping her bottom when needed, and vacuuming around the litter box. I know it wasn’t the easiest job, but she handled everything with so much patience and care. My cat seemed to really like her and I felt reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I would absolutely book her again!

I’ve been using Allie for a year now. My vacations are more relaxing knowing she is in charge of my cat. Her updates are always amusing, because she notices and highlights the crazy behavior of my cat. She is very responsive. Highly recommended. I also see her in my neighborhood walking dogs. Always has a smile and a wave.

Michael has been exceptional in everything. The cats seem to notice his strong absence because of how good of a time they had with him. We would highly recommend Michael for remarkable caring of the cats and our home. Litter cleaned, cats food, ensuring the water was clean and bowls were clean as well. Michael made sure that we were able to enjoy our trip by sending timely notes and photos during drop ins. Thank you so much Michael!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Seattle is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $44 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 2,250 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 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.

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 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.
