About: I grew up on a farm with all sorts of animals, so I love being around them and can handle a wide range of behaviors and temperaments appropriately. I currently have two dogs; both are 7 years old, and I got them when they were 8 weeks old. One is a German Shepherd/Husky, the other is a deaf Border Collie/Aussie mix. I have gone through positive reinforcement training classes with both of them at Ahimsa (highly recommend). Most of the time we chill at home. We also hike, backpack, and road trip often — I've been all over the country with my dogs! I travel often and am incredibly selective about who cares for my animals, so I am happy to accommodate requests that put you and your pet at ease while you're away. I also have two senior cats. My house is much calmer than most expect, but it is just as full of fur as most expect! Everyone gets along, and we have space to accommodate other friendly furry friends! I'm taking a break from my full-time career, which allows me a lot of availability at the moment. I do have some evening commitments; otherwise, I'm often at home. I am aiming to be back working full-time in January or February. When that happens, my weekday availability will likely be reduced. I live in a larger 3-bedroom townhome with a small patio area that my dogs use to go to the bathroom. I'm comfortable taking well-trained dogs on walks or to the dog park. If they're not good on a leash, I'm still glad to board them, I'll just have them use the patio. Both of my dogs are friendly and very chill. I can accommodate crates and gates (I have one baby gate and one medium crate, if needed). My cats stick to themselves and ignore the dogs. I am comfortable working with medications, special dietary needs, and pets of all ages. I live very close to a 24hr emergency vet (Timberline, they're great). If you have any other accommodations or concerns, please ask and I'll see if I'll be able to work it out :)
About: I grew up with 3 dogs and now I own a 5 year old pomeranian and love him to death. I've taken care 3 of my friends dog to play with my dog on a regular basis. I live in a house where your pet will be safe and secure. I can walk your dog every evening since I work during the day. I have a small fenced yard in the back where your pet can do their business. I have a big living room where my dog can play around as well.
About: Hey there, I’m Alice! I have a 10 year old German Shepherd and spend a lot of time walking, exploring, and being outside with her. She’s definitely taught me a lot about caring for both large dogs and senior dogs. I’m responsive, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I’ll always treat your pup with the same care and attention I give my own. I’d love to take your dog out for a walk, let them sniff around, explore, and enjoy some fresh air :) I’m a yoga teacher, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m happy to work with you to find a routine that works best for your pup. I can also often accommodate same-day bookings when my schedule allows. I have a GSD at home, so for now I’m offering drop-in visits and dog walks rather than care in my own home or house sitting. During visits, I’m happy to take your pup for a walk, play with them, give them plenty of attention, and follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing :)
“Rachel did a great job watching my cat Luna. She made sure to get to know her and how to interact with her making Luna feel more comfortable. I could tell that by having her stop in to see Luna made a big difference while I was away. I also received a bunch of cute photos which was much appreciated. ❤️”
About: Hi there, I'm Alisha! Also known as Bodhi and Bella's personal walker in our neighborhood :) I'm Alaska rooted, Seattle based - I've spent much of my life outdoors, with that, also cohabitating with many animals. Wild or domesticated, I have a deep love and understanding for animals near and far - except for snakes ;) Spent many days house/cat/dog sitting for friends and acquaintances. Have special relationships with those furry friends to this day! Happy to feed, give medications orally or topically - I'm a quick learner, empathetic to your pet and want to give the best care possible! Happy to answer any questions and looking forward to hanging with your furry loved ones. Cheers! I am currently working remotely on my own schedule. Very flexible and able to drop in most days! Will have some instances where I am unavailable. I have immense experience with daily dog care, with that comes great empathy! I understand leaving your pets at home during the workday can be stressful for all - if I can help ease that stress, happy to be there!
About: Hi! My name is Orietta, and having raised and cared for my own furry companion, which live with us, I know just how important pets are—and how hard it can be to leave them in someone else's hands. My main goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you're away by offering your pet a home filled with care, safety, and lots of love. What do I offer? A spacious, 100% secure yard—perfect for playing, running, and exploring outdoors safely. Constant supervision—your pet will never be left alone and will receive all the attention and cuddles they deserve. A personalized routine—I strictly follow their feeding, walking, and rest schedules so they feel right at home. Daily updates—I’ll send you photos and videos regularly so you can see just how much fun they’re having. There are no cages or stress here—just a warm, family atmosphere; I host only one guest at a time, so they’ll be treated like a member of the family. I’m ready to welcome your best friend and give them a vacation that’s just as fun as yours! By working 100% from home, your dog will enjoy constant company, continuous supervision, and a calm environment. Their routine won't be disrupted; I schedule my work breaks around their walks and playtime, ensuring he/she feels just as loved and secure as they do in their own home. No creat, fully fence yard, a very calm partner (my dog), no crowded environment and just one guest. Every day pictures and/or videos to give you peace of mind.
About: If you want your pup to be treated like a family member while you're gone, we're ready to shower them with affection! We believe that every couch, walk, or nap is better with a dog, and love interacting with dogs of all kinds. We are lifetime dog owners, and have particular experience with dachshunds. As foster dog parents for several local rescue organizations, we have welcomed many foster dogs into our home, helped them prepare for the future, and rejoiced when they found their forever family. We especially love senior dogs and are experienced with medication administration and senior dog health issues. We have a two-adult home with semi-flexible work schedules. While you're gone you can expect frequent texts or emails with pictures and updates on your pet. I’m currently working from home so can tailor my schedule to your dog’s needs! We walk daily so exercise will be part of their day too. I do my best to maintain the regular routines of the dogs we watch and make sure all their physical and emotional needs are met.
“Michelle is amazing! It is so clear that she loves loves loves animals and always cares for our pets as if they’re her own. She always does a phenomenal job, consistently going way above and beyond. We feel completely comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care. When considering a trip out of town one of the first questions we ask is whether Michelle is available. :-)”
“Alyaa did a great job with my cats, especially my elderly cat who needed pills and prescription food! I really appreciated her attention to detail and great communication, and it was really reassuring knowing someone with so much experience was checking on my old man!”
“Kate was an amazing sitter! She was very responsive, communicative, and was excellent with both of my cats. I booked her last minute and had several plan changes and she was flexible through it all. Highly recommend Kate, she's great!”
About: I have worked customer service for a couple years at local restaurants and I just want to stay involved in the community! I’m also trying to make money to pay for my school! I love the idea of incorporating walking dogs into my daily schedule it will help with activity and also making money for school and being able to both is like a dream come true! I am good at listening to instructions and sticking to them! I hope to gain your trust and prove that I am just there to help you and your pet!
“First time using Rover, and what a good experience! Found Jenica thru the search in my part of Seattle. She was wonderful with both of my cats. First: they're not used to anyone but me, and Jenica made sure that she was friends with them, before I left on my vacation. I loved the picture updates from her, and if she had any questions about the cats, or anything with my apartment, she didn't hesitate to ask. She even put the AC vent back in my window(heated back up again). Highly recommend Jenica to take care of your pets. She cares for them like they're her own, and is very thorough in her care.”
“This was my first booking through Rover. I wasn't well prepared and there were some mistakes made on my end along the way and Marley was very gracious going in the extra mile to get the correct key and make sure my cats were taken care of.”
About: While most of my experience is with cats, I love all animals and am open to caring for dogs too. I’m gentle, responsible, and a quick learner. I’m happy to follow your pup’s routine and give them the attention they deserve. I treat every pet like family—with care, patience, and respect. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and lots of availability. I’m open every day from Sunday to Sunday, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daytime care or overnight stays, I’ve got you covered. I live in a clean, quiet apartment with two calm, fully vaccinated cats. I keep my space tidy, safe, and peaceful perfect for pets who need extra comfort or medical care. I’m very attentive and experienced with shy or sensitive animals.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shoreline
Lauren was terrific. She came over for a few days to give our dogs potty breaks and company when we had long days away. The dogs connected well with her, and she spent extra time with them, which they (and we) really appreciated. We will definitely ask her again when we need dog sitting.
Always feel so confident leaving my pup in Nate's hands. I am a huge worrier, but every time he is coming to look after Fargo, I am very calm and don't stress because I know he's so good with him and will take great care of him. Truly appreciate the peace of mind!
Rachel was great! She has a very calming presence which my anxious dog responded well to. Arrived on time and followed my dog’s medication protocol exactly as instructed. Very patient and communicative. Highly recommend and would happily have her watch our dog again.
Hi Deyaneira, Sorry it has taken a bit to update you on everything. I got home on Thursday Night, and Molly was super happy to see me. She hadn't eaten much of her food when I got home, but it might have been that she wasn't hungry. Thanks for taking care of her while I was on vacation, and the notes were really helpful that you sent to me as it gave me peace of mind that she was doing good.

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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Shoreline choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , 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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Shoreline with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 , 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.
