“Keri came for another drop in and play visit with our dog yesterday and he is warming up to her and knows her as his human friend now. He will be glad when she comes back for another day of play fetch!”
About: I'm a dependable, caring pet sitter who understands that every dog and cat has their own unique personality and routine. I grew up with dogs and have been a dog owner myself for the past 8 years, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I take the time to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, compassionate care and keeping you updated along the way. Around here, tail wags and happy purrs fit right into my daily routine! I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore. Whether we're exploring the neighborhood on a walk, playing fetch, tossing around a favorite toy, or relaxing on the couch for some cuddle time, I'm happiest when I have furry company. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I have a fully fenced yard, plus two sweet, friendly fur babies to keep them company if they enjoy having playmates! I'm happy to crate your pet if that's part of their normal routine or if you prefer. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with lots of love, attention, snuggles, and—if approved by you—a few well-earned treats!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since the young age of 10 and have always been an animal lover of all animals and have owned several dogs. I have always trained my own from potty training, crate training, to shaking hands, and have always done amazing with them. I’ve rescued several animals and strays. I absolutely love all fur babies and enjoy taking them on hikes and would love to take your fur baby on a hike or to play fetch. I work a full time job Monday-Wednesday with having a very short work day on Thursdays. I always have the spare time throughout my off days and will be able to take good care of your fur babies at all times. I have a huge yard with one fur baby that could keep yours company. My fur baby is friendly and would love to have a play date. I also can easily crate your animal if i ever needed to do so.
About: I've been walking and caring for pets since I moved to Seattle three years ago. I've worked with a large, reactive, special needs american bully, a grumpy senior chihuahua, a springy ESS, an affectionate elderly bunny, and an adorably high strung chiweenie (all of which quickly became best friends). I also have my own kitty who loves outdoor adventures and interrupting a puzzle. I'm currently working on researching and practicing training techniques in preparation for a dog of my own. Excited to meet your friend!! I currently have open availability and can flex my schedule around your convenience whether that be a small check in or a week long vacation! I have a fenced back yard and live with two tiny dogs who love friends! I have a kitty of my own who is curious and reserved around dogs and is obsessed with befriending other cats. All house pets have lived with other animals from a young age and thrive with other furry friends. Happy to help with crate training if that's on your agenda. I have plenty of toys and live a short walk away from a lively park with lots of running room.
About: 5+ years experience operating my own pet care service with over 25 regular weekly/monthly clients. I provide dog walking and drop in visits for both dogs and cats. While my pet care service started as supplemental side income, it has now grown into my primary source of income. As such, my time and availability is now prioritized for taking care of your pets. For drop in visits I will provide whatever routine your pet is most familiar with. I never force or rush the interaction beyond what your pet is comfortable with. I let them set the pace and allow my patience to incrementally navigate our progress.
About: I'm pretty good at training I love getting to know dogs. I have a senior dog myself so I'm good and administering medications general senior and puppy care. I'm actually unemployed at the moment so I have plenty of time and I understand the importance of routine for pet for reducing stress. I'm happy to do anything you need for you fur baby. Stress is the worst thing about leaving you pets. You're stressed they're stressed so I prioritize make sure it's a stress free as possible. My dog is afraid of storms so if your pet have similar fears or anxieties I know how to comfort them.
“Amanda stepped up to take care of my kitty last minute for a weekend, and she was great! My cat was weary of a new person, but Amanda kept her comfortable and fed while I was gone, and made sure I was in the loop the whole time.”

Alexis was amazing! My dogs are huge and my cats are weird, but she won them over within seconds of meeting them. She took amazing care of my babies, doing drop in visits several time a day. I got tons of pictures and updates each time she visited. Which made me rest easy and stress so much less.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 60 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Southside. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
