“Michelle was amazing with our Ragdoll kitty. She was always reliable to make it on the specific times we requested and also played with Gizmo for the full 30 minutes. I told her she could bring our cat stroller out for a walk and she took him on a walk for him! I would highly recommend her and will be book with her again soon 😊”

About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I have grown up with all sorts of animals: dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and cows. Currently, I am an Aunt to one energetic golden retriever and 2 cats. Over the past 5 years I have watched dogs and cats in the city for friends and co workers and would love to watch your fur baby too! I have experience with caring for dogs with anxiety and elderly pets. I am a pretty active person who loves hiking and checking out new places in the city. I work full time from home. Usually my work hours are set in CST so I start early and end early afternoon, leaving a very flexible schedule with lots of time and energy to spend with your pets! I am very easy to communicate with and love spending time outside. I am easy to work with whether it’s for a quick check in, walks while you are away or reliable boarding. I live in an apartment but there are fenced in pet areas on the property. I also own a vehicle to take pets to the park, drop off/pick up or sitting at your home. I have worked in hospitality for over 15+ years. I know exceptional care is all about trust, attention to detail, and personalized service. I’ll treat your beloved pets with the same level of care and dedication we provide to guests at our five star properties.
“Kennedy did a great job of watching our cats while we were on vacation. She was prompt, respectful of our home, and ensured the cats were well taken care of. I plan to use her services again the next time we leave town!”

“Take great care of Princess. Understood when she wanted to go out, and sat with her watching Animal Movies with her. Princess has separation Anxiety if we leave her alone. Dana solved her anxiety ...”


“Prisha took great care of our pup! She was very thoughtful and gave us very detailed updates. We have a senior dog, and Prisha made sure she left a light on for her and was very patient with her on walks.”

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.
“Tanya was amazing! She responded right away and was great with our dog. She even went above and beyond to stop by and meet us earlier in the day. We would definitely use her again.”

“Vanessa was very communicative and responsive to me and was very attentive to my pets. She gave me daily pictures and updates. I felt confident the entire time that I was away that my pets were in good hands. I would highly recommend booking Vanessa!”

“Kevin is very reliable and has done a great job taking care of our two kitties when we are out of town. It’s an absolute pleasure to see his well-written rover card and photos when we are away from our fur babies! Will definitely book him again.”

“Shelby was a great sitter for my 3 cats. Very communicative and flexible with her schedule and helping administer oral meds for one of my cats. Would definitely consider booking her again!”

“Bruce was great! He followed all instructions I left and really made an effort to approach my shy bunny in a calm, patient manner. Would absolutely book him again ◡̈”

About: As a lifelong pet owner, caring for animals is one my favorite things to do. I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. I am entirely comfortable sticking to your pet's unique daily routine, including any special accommodations they might need to feel safe and happy. Best of all, I know the stress on you of being away from your babies! You can expect regular, and steady stream of picture checkins throughout the day. Your peace of mind is my top priority, and I will make sure you never miss a single tail wag while you are away. I am lucky enough to work full time from home, which means I am at my laptop and available for your pet all week long. Your furry friend will enjoy constant companionship, easy potty breaks, and plenty of desk-side cuddles. When providing care in your home, my top priority is maintaining your pet's comfort while fully respecting your space and privacy. Since I work from my laptop, I can easily replicate their normal routine in their own secure environment while leaving your home exactly as clean and tidy as I found it.
“Dalara was super responsive and adapted to a bit of a curve ball at the last minute. We appreciate her and her husband checking on our old pup while we were visiting Baltimore from out of town and sending lots of photos. She gave me total peace of mind. Will definitely use her again if we’re in the area.”


“Marie-Rose is excellent. First time hiring and won’t be the last! Stayed even a little extra to give my Mae Mae additional cuddles and play time. Truly would not trust anyone else! Thank you so much for attention to detail and caring for my ‘little angel’ lol. He’s def a menace. Left me a card at the end with his picture on it! I was able to communicate with her any time I had questions and response was very quick. Again, she was the absolute best!”

About: I've been taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes since I was kid. I have professional experience with dog and cat boarding, sitting, walking, grooming, daycare, etc. I love animals and cant wait to meet yours. I work from home as a caretaker so my schedule is extremely flexible and there is always someone home to watch any animals we have visiting. I dont have any animals at home at the moment so there's a clean slate for me to focus on any specialized care your pet may need while in my care.

About: Dog lover & lifelong hound fan! 🐶 I grew up with beagles and have always loved being around dogs. I’d love to be a dog mom someday, but the timing isn’t quite right yet—Rover lets me get my dog fix while giving your pup plenty of love, attention, and care! ❤️ I’ve worked the traditional 9–5, so I know the struggle of trying to fit in a happy, tired pup between meetings! Luckily, I’m conveniently located near major corporate offices and have a flexible schedule for midday walks. 🐶 For me, a walk isn’t just about racking up steps—it’s about letting your pup be a dog! I love a good “sniffari,” giving dogs plenty of time to sniff, explore, and take in all the neighborhood smells. 🌿👃 My goal? Get those zoomies out, give those curious noses something to investigate, and send your pup home happy and ready to snooze while you get back to work. 💻🐾 I’ll keep your pup’s routine consistent while making their time outside fun and enriching! 🐶 As an apartment dweller myself, I know how important it is for dogs to get out for regular walks, fresh air, and plenty of opportunities to sniff and explore. Expect lots of mental stimulation, playtime, and maybe a treat or two along the way! 🐾

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.

Madelyn was absolutely wonderful with my cat Jerry! She took fantastic care of him and kept me updated with regular photos and check-ins, so I knew he was in good hands the entire time. On top of providing excellent pet care, Madelyn went above and beyond by helping me out with an urgent, time-sensitive favor at my building. I am extremely grateful for Madelyn’s help, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

First time leaving Marcus for an extended time and I could not have been more pleased by Joelle’s care of Marcus and wonderful communication to keep me posted on him as I was incredibly worried. She played with him extra and sent me pictures. Excellent sitter!

Angela is always great with our 2 cats. Our cats are highly dependent for socializing with people, and every time we come back from a trip our cats aren't a neurotic mess, all due to Angela's excellent care with them. She always makes sure all of their needs are met and goes above and beyond each time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Seattle on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 12,993 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Seattle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Seattle stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
