“Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in on very short notice to care for my dogs and made the entire experience stress-free. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, was incredibly kind and professional, and kept me updated with regular check-ins and lots of photos. Knowing my dogs were so well cared for gave me incredible peace of mind while I was away. She was so great, I've booked Natalie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Kelli was great with my cat who warmed up very quickly to her. I received photos and updates upon each visit and, although my cat doesn't have specialized needs, she followed my usual routine exactly. I appreciate her looking after my pet and would definitely request her services again if needed.”
“Helena is a great communicator and took excellent care of our 3 animals (1 large, excitable dog; 2 cats) while we were away for several days visiting family. I really appreciated how quickly she reached out if she had any questions and how promptly she responded during our check-ins. Helena has lovely energy and we could absolutely tell the pets appreciated having such a warm and capable caregiver while we were away. It definitely helped set our minds at ease knowing our animals (especially our big, dopey, kinda high-maintenance dog) were all in such excellent hands. Thank you, Helena!!”
“Stephanie takes great care of our kitties when we are away. We know they are well cared for so we can enjoy our vacation. Stepanie always sends pictures of the cats enjoying her visits, which we enjoy!”
“Nikki cared for our babies like they’re her own. Super communicative and conscientious, I would recommend her a million times over. I’ve never seen my cats so comfortable while we were away.”
“Chandra provided excellent services to our pets and our families needs . She went above and beyond and we are so very grateful, excellent communication and care . We highly recommend Chandra , thank you , thank you ,thank you”
“Annmarie was fabulous! I would use her again! She is thoughtful and caring about your pet. Sent pictures and you can tell she cares for your family pet kindly. So glad to have found her!!! Thank you”
“Hannah did a fantastic job looking after our kitties while we were on vacation. Very good communication, and all the fuzzy ones were doing well when we came home. Definitely a keeper!”
“Qing is very organized, thorough and detail oriented! I had a family emergency and Qing is always the first and the best option I would consider for my cat who takes some time to warm up with strangers. Qing gave my cat the meds he needed and sent detailed notes with great updates. Highly recommend! I will only choose her to care for my pets! Ethan & Andy”
“Sarah is a wonderful sitter! Booked her for two drop-ins with walks and my dogs absolutely loved her. One of my dogs is a little older and requires medication and she was very gentle getting her to take it. She’s very communicative throughout. Absolutely recommend Sarah!”
“Madison is the most reliable sitter I have found in the area, and my three dogs have come to welcome her to their little family pack. Very grateful to have met Maddy and she continues to go above and beyond taking care of them. It honestly helps me feel at ease knowing she is swinging by to see them. If anyone has any large dogs, Maddy has been an absolute champ with my three rambunctious doodles. She also helps me with my hedgehog which makes her even more qualified!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I can remember ❤️ I’m experienced with big and small, seniors and puppies, many different species, experienced with medications, quick to learn, and excited to get to get to know everyone’s individual needs and likes. My number one priority is your pet’s needs…I don’t leave the residence unless getting groceries because I realize that most animals get a bit anxious with their family gone. I also make it a priority to take care of the house and leave it as it was when I got there. I don’t smoke, and I don’t drink. I take many pictures throughout the day and update daily. My entire goal is to play, love, and care for your pets as if they were my own so you can enjoy the time you are away knowing they’re being cared for. I work remote in a flexible job, so I can dedicate as much time as needed with your fur babies. Their care is my number 1 priority. I have a fenced yard and live close to beautiful Wonderwood park. My dog, Pickles, is almost 2 years old, 10lbs and super friendly. I am very familiar with crating and specific schedules. Love taking walks, and am quick to learn routines so that your fur babies feel comfortable.
About: I have been taking care of Dogs, Cats, and small Reptiles for a combined 10 years. I love to snuggle on the couch, go for walks, and chase the local squirrels. I have a full time time job my hours are 5am - 1:30pm Monday - Friday I also have a small gig job that ranges in schedule, will communicate hours when necessary. My two cats are pretty laid back, other than needing pets 24/7. Growing up and have had to manage many different types of pets, from super hyper and playful to couch potatoes.
“Kaci is so amazing in every way, I can tell she really cares about my home and all my babies well-being. It's so nice to not have to worry about my senior cat that needs medication. She will be my go-to for every sitting job for as long as she'll have me!”
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have over 12 years of experience living on a farm, caring for pigs, cows, chickens, dogs, and cats. While I love all animals, dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. Friends and family know me as someone animals naturally gravitate toward. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or a senior who needs extra patience and gentle care, I take the time to earn their trust and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm dependable, responsible, and understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring hands while you're away. I'll follow your routines, provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and caring for them as if they were my own! I currently have a flexible schedule and spend my time between Olympia and Mukilteo. I generally work remotely, so I am available to house sit during the week or a mid day walk or check in on a break! My aim will always be to keep to your fur baby's schedule regarding walks, potty breaks and feeding. I'll provide plenty of cuddles and love when they are missing you.
“Johanna goes above and beyond every time she cares for our three dogs, and we couldn't ask for a better dog sitter! She adapts to the personalities and needs of all our girls, from our energetic puppy to our velcro dog who needs lots of love. Johanna's photos and detailed updates show just how attentive and conscientious she is of each of our pups, and I always feel reassured that she is providing excellent care for them while we are away from home. So grateful to have found such a reliable sitter!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South Bay
This was our first time using Rover and I am very pleased. Allison did an amazing job taking care of my two cats. She communicated well with me and even cleaned up after their messes. I feel more at ease knowing that I can trust the care of my cats when needed again in the future.
Matthew was great! He was consistent and reliable. He seems to really love pet sitting, and was a great match for our dog. My dog FlapJack loves to walk fast and sniff everything, and Matthew was happy to accommodate that. He is also flexible and communicative. My flights got delayed and I was worried about modifying our booking last minute, but he walked me through it and was happy to help us out a few more days. I plan to book with Matthew again!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
