“Annie was great with my cat! She was early for the visit (which she asked me about and I said was more than ok) and gave Mako some great cuddles. She took lots of photos too!”

About: I'm a software engineer working from home looking to break up my day with some exercise. You will find me to be reliable and communicative. I love dogs. I adopted Wally from shelter 10 years ago, and he's been getting 10k steps a day ever since. I frequently care for friends' dogs, and would love to help yours get out more. I'm a freelance software engineer with control over my schedule and a very predictable routine. I can accommodate walks almost any time during the day with a little notice. I live in an apartment in SLU with a very high energy beagle. I know how to keep him stimulated and and well exercised. We know all the parks and neighborhoods nearby and where to get a drink of water on a hot day.
“Cassandra is very good with cats! Within a few visits, our cats were acquainted with her and started rolling in the floor asking for pets. Cassandra followed our instructions very closely, and helped us clean up any accidents our cats had. She is also very responsive as we had to change the cats' meal plan in the middle of the booking. Thanks for taking care of our cats during the holidays!”

“Jen was amazing. Available when we were in a bit of a pinch, and unsure of exactly how long we would be out of town. On top of being extremely easy to work with and flexible she was fantastic with my lil lady! Went the extra mile rubbing her bare spots with fur balm and spending the time to make sure she was happy and healthy. Jen is awesome!! Highly recommend!”

About: I've had my own dog and cat, have always had a natural love for animals. I treat every pet I care for like my own I’m available for cat care in the noon/evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and caring for them, and I make sure each visit is calm, consistent, and attentive. I care for cats in their own home by following the owner’s instructions carefully so they stay comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure they are fed, have clean litter boxes, and fresh water at every visit. I also spend time giving attention and companionship based on the cat’s personality (whether that’s playtime or just quiet company). I always make sure the home is secure before leaving.
About: Several years of watching friend's and family's dogs and cats! Have fostered dogs and I nursed my rescue puppy back to perfect health. I have had her for 4 years now. I work from home, so I can provide attention to your dog all day! We are very active, with multiple walks a day around the city, off leash dog parks (if you are ok with it), and weekend visits to bigger parks! I am flexible with dropoff and can even provide pickup/dropoff within a reasonable distance of Seattle. I will tailor my schedule to accommodate your pup's bathroom schedule. In my home, the dogs are allowed everywhere. I can crate the dog if necessary. We can do a meet and greet so that your dog can get comfortable with me and my pup. I will tailor my care to your pup!
“Julia is amazing!! She was so patient with my timid boy. Provided great communication and lovely pictures. I will absolutely be booking her going forward. Thank you Julia!!!!”

“Sheng was a great sitter! Very responsive and maintained great communications while we were out of town. I’d recommend him for anyone who’s looking for a reliable cat sitter!”

“Was amazing with keeping me updated and proving pictures as well. Took both of my dogs out and even helped clean up a small mess they made! Very professional.”

“Ana is our favorite cat sitter! She is so great with our shy cat, and gives our cat so much attention and love. Ana is always communicative and I know our cat loves when she visits!”

“She did great! My dog, who’s a little hit or miss with meeting new people, went happily up to her instantly. She was able to be flexible with my booking needs and my pet was well cared for during the time that I was away. Thank you!”

About: I am happiest when caring for and bonding with animals of all kinds. As a volunteer with both a local animal shelter and wildlife rehabilitation center I have had experience providing extensive and complex care for animals with all sorts of differing needs. Growing up with, and continuing to care for, animals of my own has taught me so much about providing care at every stage of life. I have helped raise puppies, kittens, small chicks, and bottle fed orphaned wildlife. I am very comfortable understanding and respecting the boundaries of more reactive animals and will tailor my care to your pets individual needs and personality. I would be honored to be entrusted with your pets care and prioritize safety and communication above all else! I have a flexible schedule and will work with you in order to provide the best care for your pet/s where and when you need it. Safety is my number one priority, and I believe wholeheartedly in always acting with care and honesty. The care I provide is informed by your advice and individual needs, and the most important thing to me is providing a safe and comfortable environment for your pet.
“Akiko is excellent! Even with her own busy schedule, she made my boy a top priority and was incredibly reliable. She provides great interaction and is very observant of his health and habits. She is professional, kind, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she watches. I felt so much better knowing Maru was in her hands. 5 stars!”


About: I have experience caring for and training young pets, including helping reinforce routines, basic commands, and good behavior with patience and consistency. I’m very attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means keeping an energetic puppy engaged or making sure a shy pet feels comfortable and safe. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always try to give them the care, attention, and love they need while their owners are away. I work EST hours and keep a consistent daily routine, which makes it easy for me to plan pet care into my schedule. Dogs naturally become a part of my routine, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just making sure they get attention and companionship throughout the day. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and a consistent routine while in my care. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and always want them to feel relaxed, cared for, and at home.
“Maria is great! She was the first person who was able to make friends with Leeloo so she doesn’t scare 😂 Really appreciate that she had patience and had a chance to play with her. Thank you so much!”
“Kevin really went above and beyond to take great care of our cats and our apartment! We really appreciated his great communication and check-in reports, and he gave us peace of mind during our vacation.”

“Winston was kind and diligent and Toast clearly liked him a lot. He gave detailed updates, made sure she got her meds, and even tidied up after her. I felt like she was in good hands. Would definitely recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Lake Union
This was our first time using Rover, and Katelyn’s patience and professionalism put all of our early concerns to rest. She was punctual for every visit and took wonderful care of our two cats — playing with them and giving them plenty of attention each time. She even helped Maodou with a little grooming issue. When one of the cats threw up a hairball on our sofa, Katelyn handled the incident and cleaned up the mess without us having to ask. She was also happy to bring in packages and take out the trash. Thank you so much, Katelyn!

Machele is an excellent dog walker. She’s professional, punctual, and asks detailed questions about our dog to ensure excellent care is given. We will be using her services again for both walks and the next time we go on a trip. Cannot recommend enough! Thank you, Machele! 😁

Dana went above & beyond for my furry babies while I was away. Even went as far as going to the store to buy a treat for my cat. Dana’s detailed notes about each visit was greatly appreciated and brought me a lot of comfort knowing what my pets were up to & that they were well taking care of. It is evident that Dana has a lot of love for animals! Best sitter I’ve ever booked.

Amethyst provided the most attentive and loving care for our Miyuki while we were gone. She gave us updates on how she thought Miyuki was feeling and adjusted the environment and her approach to make sure Miyuki was as happy and fulfilled as possible while we were away. She even found out ways that she liked to be petted! Her communication and coordination are fabulous. We will definitely rebook with her when we have to be away again. 💯 Recommend.

Heather is amazing with Obi, who we adopted during Covid. She quickly became our “dog whisperer” and was instrumental in curbing many of his obnoxious behaviors. Socializing him with her dogs and others in his care was so helpful too. We know she cares a great deal for the dogs she cares for and feel confident leaving Obi in her care.

This is my second time booking Rachael, trust she will be my first ask next time I need a pet sitter! Rachael does a wonderful job looking after my sweet kitty, always sends lots of photos, spends plenty of time giving pets, and goes above and beyond making sure my kitty is content while I’m away. Thank you!!

Aubrey did a great job sitting for my 2 cats while I was out of town. She was prompt for every visit and spent time playing with the cats, who clearly had a great time with her. Aubrey shared lots of pictures with me and kept me updated on the cats’ behavior. I will definitely book her again!

Mengyuan is fantastic! She is incredibly punctual and goes above and beyond to spend quality time keeping my cat company rather than just doing a quick check-in. She’s very proactive about spotting any issues right away and letting me know. Highly recommend if you want someone attentive who hangs out with your pet!
