“As always Mina did a great job cat sitting for us over the holidays. We appreciated the regular check-ins and photo updates. He was certainly taken care of well and entertained with fun playtime.”

About: I grew up on a ranch, helping to care for animals from the exotic pet trade as part of their rehabilitation. This also gave me an understanding of animal body language, respect for their quality of life, and the patience to train them. I work from home on art commissions, but love to get a chance to go outside. Because of this, my schedule is quite open and flexible for daytime. It is totally up to what the client requests for their pets care, but as per my morals, I only train pets through positive reinforcement. Patience and understanding are the core elements of how I approach animals and especially pets. At home I have a small crate and 2 small friendly dogs that free roam because they are my good little princesses.
About: Dogs have always been apart of my family growing up. I have 2 of my own dogs right now & they’re both 5 years old. I attend California State Dominguez Hills as I play on the women’s basketball team there. I’m trying to make a lil extra money and being around dogs is something that makes me happy on my free time. Dog will be provided water and whatever care is needed. I like to play and also just chill with them just to make them feel good with me.
“Awesome sitter. My dog and cat loved Brenda. I appreciate the detailed notes and photos during drop-ins. Easily the best sitter I've had the pleasure of booking with in the Capitol Hill area, and I hope to book her again in the future.”

“Laurie was an amazing cat sitter for our two furballs. It was a bit short notice of a request, but she was able to easily handle drop-in visits, including managing two litter boxes while we were transitioning between litter systems. Great communicator and would definitely reach out again!”

“Showed up on time to collect the keys, took care of Tess twice a day and made an effort to become friends with the kitty. Checked in with me the evening I was returning from my trip to make sure that I wasn't delayed and that Tess didn't need an extra visit. Then returned the keys right on time. Couldn't ask for more.”

“Aaron was so good to our pup while we were out of town for a week long trip. We had a short meet up before we left to give Aaron the lay of the land since this was his first time watching our pup. Our pup can be a little skittish when we aren’t around but Aaron took it slow and persevered and by the end of the week they were good friends. Aaron provided the perfect amount of check-ins (videos and messages) bringing us humans comfort that our pup was in the right hands and settling in nicely. We will definitely have Aaron back soon!”

“Alijah was great with my cat. During my Christmas vacation she kept me updated on how he was doing and provided pictures as well. She also made sure she had the information she needed, such as where the cat carrier was in case of emergency and where the apartments trash area was for litter disposal. She also made sure that my boy got the attention he needed and that he had food and water. It was hard for me to to leave him behind for the amount of time I did, but Alijah showed that he was in good hands while I was away. Overall a positive experience and I will consider her next time I go traveling and am short on people to look after my cat.”


About: I’m an owner of 2 dogs(American bulldog and blue nose pit) , and 1 cat(Siamese) that I treat like children. 2 are a rescue and 1 I have had since she was 3 weeks old. I’ve owned pets for over 15 years and I treat other peoples pets like they were my own, if you allow me to walk or stop by to take care of your pet rest assured they are in good hands. I work full time in the Seattle area so stopping by for potty breaks or an afternoon walk will always be available after 2:30pm. I am very friendly and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I am available tuesdays and thursdays since I have school in the evening and like to stay productive until then. I understand how exercise and companionship is essential for pets so walks and jogs are very natural to my life since I take my dogs out every opportunity I get. I’m very compassionate towards animals because at the end of the day they will always be the one person that will always be happy to see you and your pets wellbeing matters to me.

“Hongyu did an amazing job! went above and beyond my expectations. She did exactly what was asked and more. she gave my cat so much attention that when I got back she wasn’t as seeming to miss me as she usually is. Definitely would recommend Hongyu!”


About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember and I’ve never lived without them. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained countless dogs, birds, and more litters of kittens than I can count. Currently, I share my home with Whidbey, my friendly male Ragdoll kitten. He’s incredibly social with both cats and dogs and enjoys an active social life with his furry friends. Right now, I have extra time on my hands as I prepare to switch careers—and while my husband has (wisely) vetoed my dream of turning our home into a zoo, pet sitting feels like the perfect win-win. Whether your fur baby needs cuddles, calm companionship, or a bit of playful attention, they’ll be in safe, loving hands with me. I can’t wait to meet them! I'm currently in a career transition phase, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time and energy to dedicate to pet care. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will have lots of attention, playtime, and supervision—whether they're staying overnight or just dropping in for a visit. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine and is something I truly enjoy. From morning snuggles to evening play sessions, I'm here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for throughout the day. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where your cat or small dog can feel relaxed and secure. I closely monitor interactions, especially during meet-and-greets or first-time stays, and I’m happy to separate pets until needed to ensure everyone feels safe. My Ragdoll kitten, Whidbey, is very gentle and social—used to being around other cats and dogs. Whether they need space, extra cuddles, or quiet time, I’m happy to adapt. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I treat your space with respect and keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel totally at ease while you're away.

“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 :)”

Seattle dog parents share their Rover experiences
Always feel good about my older dog’s care with she’s with Brandi! She’s slowing down and has some behavior things and Brandi took care to check in about her walking needs and take her on a gentle walk at her own pace. Definitely trust Brandi for my pet care needs!

Tunan was great with her walk with Bella and Dexter. She took pictures, video and gave us a detailed description of their time together, what she observed and experienced. She also refilled their water bowls. We appreciate her support and asking questions when Dexter was walking different. We would definitely ask her for help again in the future.

Roman took excellent care of our Velcro German Shepherd doggo for nearly three weeks. Our pup got plenty of playtime, love, and attention. Roman is that rare combo of professional yet personal; he really loves Milo. That made it such a relief and removed a real vacation stressor.

This was the second time Fabiola watched my two dogs, and once again, it was such a stress-free experience. She is incredibly sweet with them and always goes above and beyond by leaving detailed notes and the cutest photos after each visit. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they're in such caring hands. I truly appreciate her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!🐾💕

Mariia did an amazing job!!! Our dogs are usually watched by friends/family they already know when we are out of town, but this time none of those normal watchers were free. We scheduled an extra couple check-ins while we were still in town for meeting, greeting, and acclimating. Mariia was patient and thorough, and continued to demonstrate those qualities through her updates and summaries while we were away. She told us ahead of time that her husband would be walking with her to our building most evenings, and when we mentioned that our younger dog is more comfortable with women who are strangers than men, she quickly found a solution so that her husband could still walk with her to our building but he did not come into our home while we were gone. Mariia obviously went the extra mile to play with our pups during her checkins, and the videos made it clear that they were both very happy to see her! We will absolutely use Mariia again in a heartbeat the next time we need to find someone through Rover!
