“Trinity is a true professional rover! We're always apprehensive about using new rovers, but we're new to the area. We matched with Trinity and she came by to meet the doggos and get the lowdown. Once we left for vacation, Trinity was all over it! Highly communicative and flexible, she took care of all three of the dogs AND the cat. She went above and beyond in loving the fur babies, even cleaning water bowls, excess fur out of the kennels and any messes inside AND outside as needed. She gave us daily progress reports and pics of the animals and asked us for guidance with any issues she faced in the house. We HIGHLY recommend Trinity to anyone looking for a true animal lover to be your Rover!”
About: I’ve worked in professional pet care for several months and always have enjoyed it! I recently moved back to Seattle, and am looking to continue working here. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to be around as much or as little as you and your pet prefer! I will also be able to come around at the most convenient times since my schedule isn’t fixed. I’m very experienced in working with cats, however fickle they may be, and providing whatever they may need. I also have plenty of experience with dogs, both housesitting and dog walking with all types of dogs from the most relaxed elderly dogs to the most excitable pups! It’s always especially fun to see a dog who is just so happy to see you as well! My schedule is flexible so I’m able to come around whenever is best for you and your pet! Weekends and weekdays are both great as well. My priority is always the safety of your pet! Whether that’s on walks or in the home I make sure your pet is safe and happy.
“Grace is the most dependable person we’ve ever found for watching over and walking our dog and cat. She always showed up on time and left us with good detailed reports. Our pets seemed to love her as well.”
“This was my first time using Rover but Vanessa and Eulalia made it easy. Even though neither of my shy cats showed themselves, they seemed noticeably less anxious when I got home compared to other times I've traveled and had a friend watch them. I will be a repeat customer!”
“Natalie took care of my cat, Aya, during the week of Christmas. She sent me updates and photos during her visit, and that was really helpful! My cat was really comfortable with her and she went above and beyond to make sure that my cat will be okay in between her visits. Overall, she was very pleasant to work with and I’ll definitely reach out to her when I need someone to watch over my cat again.”
“Danielle always goes above and beyond when caring for our cats! From administering medication to dealing with our prickly cat she always does a fantastic job. Could not recommend Danielle enough!! Five stars all around.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for my own dogs and cats for many years. I currently have a dog and a cat. My pets come first and are spoiled. I have experience caring for senior pets. Additionally, I am a nonsmoker and nonvaper. I am retired and work a part-time job which gives me lots of free time to watch after, walk, play with, and care for your pets. I believe in taking care of and loving your pet as if it were my own. Their care and needs are my priority. Caring for my pets always come first.
About: Experienced vet tech with a dedication to positive reinforcement and science-backed and evidence based training methods. I've worked with animals of all kinds- from horses to rats and everything in between. I work with a flexible schedule, and am an online student. I can accommodate diverse needs. My own dog gets 30-60 minutes of dedicated exercise and training time daily, on top of his required snuggling needs. I will come to you for training sessions, walking, home checks, and mid-day potty breaks for your pets as needed. I am also proficient with medication administration if needed.
About: I've been a dog mom for 18 years. My dogs have provided me with companionship, loyalty, joy, structure, and unconditional love over the years. My first dog, Angel, was a Beauceron mix with a blue tongue. She was my best friend, my protector, my shadow. I loved her fiercely. She went over the rainbow bridge three years ago at the age of 14. About a year before she passed, our Kai Ken/Mudi mix, Cody Coyote, joined the family as her companion. This past summer, Corgi pup, Michael, moved in. My son's first official dog. We take regular walks together and they are always making us smile and laugh. I know how special pup companions are and I would love to help you care for yours. Daily walks with my pups are very important for me and for them. I need the movement, and they need to smell. On the weekend, I have more time to walk more pups, check on them, give potty breaks, or feed them. My pups have a fenced in yard and are able to take regular potty breaks every two to four hours. We take walks after I get off work. My pups eat breakfast before I work and eat dinner when my family does. I am available on weekends to give your pup/s potty breaks every two to four hours, up to three walks a day, and feeding in your home.

If you prefer, I can always place your dog in a large kennel or keep them separated from others. I am flexible and can meet most needs!
“Tianna went above & beyond while taking care of our cats for two weeks. She even checked on our fish & fed them when she noticed the extended feeder wasn’t really working. Communication was great & I would definitely want her to take cake care of our pets again in the future!”

I am happy to talk about times that work for you and your pet! I strive to always make sure that your animal is safe and comfortable in whichever environment we are in whether that be a drop-in visit or on our walks. I carry an extra leash if there may be an instance of one breaking, as well as extra water in case your animal is thirsty.

Trinity did a wonderful job looking after my pets on short notice! She is very responsive and set my mind at ease during a difficult time. She was also patient and understanding with my older dog who is very wary of people. I would highly recommend Trinity and would gladly have her look after my pets again!
This was my first time using Rover but Vanessa and Eulalia made it easy. Even though neither of my shy cats showed themselves, they seemed noticeably less anxious when I got home compared to other times I've traveled and had a friend watch them. I will be a repeat customer!

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 .

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 Shelton 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.

- 97% 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.
