“Audrey was great! Our dogs love her. She house/dog sat for us for two weeks and we never had to worry about if the dogs were being well taken care of. She was very communicative, if she was unsure about something always made sure to double check with us, sent lots of pics, and my house was clean and put together when we got back. 10/10 would definitely recommend and will be using her again ☺️”
“Jennifer arrived promptly & my pup Daisy immediately fell in love with her. I was gone for about 6 hours, received a cute photo, & came home to a happy dog. I will definitely book Jennifer again.”
“Bethany was great about sending pictures. She has always been on time . She is friendly and we are very happy. Would have tipped more but there is a 30% limit.”
“Rachel is absolutely lovely! My crew had a great day with her. I felt very secure in leaving them with her as a sitter new to us. Thanks for the extra care and fun and games with some trickery! I will absolutely hire Rachel again.”
“Nazeerah and Nick were fantastic sitters! They were super caring with our pets, sent us tons of pictures, and were absolute stars when it came to administering difficult medication. They left our house perfectly in the way we left it too! Highly recommend!”
“Jocelyn is a responsible and attentive cat sitter. She took care of our particular kitty Nalu and home for the weekend. She clearly loves cats and was so good with Nalu! Jocelyn was good with communicating and quick to respond/send updates. She also left our house very clean. I would definitely recommend her services for cat sitting!”
“James recently watched my fiancé and i’s three dogs while we were out of town for a few days. He was phenomenal, always on time with daily updates. I told him to play with the dogs in the back yard once a day and he did it 3+ times. Kept me in the loop every day and folded all the sheets and took out the garbage. Would give more than 5 stars if it was an option”
“Monique truly went above and beyond expectations! Our dog Penny is very leary of new people, and Monique persevered and totally won her over. Penny was very happy and well cared for, plus we came home to a clean house. I would unequivocally recommend Monique, and she will be first on our list next time we need a doggie sitter. Thank you Monique!”
“It can be hard to find a sitter that enjoys big dogs. Our big, goofy dogs love Clara! We appreciate that she let us know how they were doing and help them stay happy and on their routine (as it helps the smaller of our two dogs keep her anxiety down while we’re away). We will definitely call on her again.”
About: There has never not been a dog in my house. I've grown up around them and feel very comfortable with them! Within the last few years I have logged 70+ volunteer hours at SCRAPS training and exercising dogs. I achieved the highest level of training and thoroughly enjoy my time working with them. I have handled dogs with all kinds of behavioral issues from having a high prey drive to disliking people. Additionally I've worked with my own dog and she earned her CGC, participated in numerous rally classes, and began agility. When she became a senior dog I gave her a comfortable life until the end. I am passionate about making their lives better for as long as we have them. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, goats, and horses. I'm a full-time student on summer break so I have full availability currently. Evenings will have less availability as I will be doing some summer conditioning for my sport but can be flexible with the client's needs. In my own home we keep our dogs separate with baby gates and the use of leashes. Keeping them safe is a priority for us so we do all we can to help make them comfortable while maintaining safety. Depending on what the client is comfortable with I will use whatever measures they want to keep their family safe.
“Thanks, once again, Carla, for taking care of our home and the excellent care of Little Bear. It’s was so relaxing to know that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. It made our trip so much more fun. 🤩”
About: We have experience with all types of animals! Right now we currently own 2 rabbits, a cat, and 2 dogs, one of the dogs is a senior, and requires daily medication. We also have experience with large animals, Shelby (my partner) owns horses. Overall we have cared for various types of pets throughout the years, and love all types of animals! I am working part time, and she goes to Washington State University all in Spokane, so we will have plenty of time to cater to all of your pet needs! We can walk your pets in low traffic areas, or are more than happy to walk them on trails away from any potential hazards if you would prefer that! We carefully monitor interactions between our own different types of animals to avoid any altercations, which we will also do with your pets! Safety is our #1 priority with ALL pets!
“Alex was so good with our two goldens and kitty while we were out of town! She even got up every day to walk them in the early morning since it was a 100 degree weekend. Very good communication and kept us updated throughout the weekend. Above & beyond!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Julie provided for our three dogs. Her responsiveness to our emails and texts along with being very conscientious to our pets’ needs gave us peace of mind while we were away. The dogs were happy, healthy and most importantly, safe, when we returned home. We have already booked her for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Julie if you want a responsible, caring pet sitter.”
About: Having grown up from a very young age around cats and dogs, I love spending time with animals of all kinds! I have done house sitting for the pets of several friends and families over the past few years, including caring for disabled and senior pets, for up to five weeks at a time. I worked as a dog groomer during the summer of 2025 and got to interact with dogs of all ages, manors & breeds! As someone who is active and loves spending time outdoors, I am well suited for high-energy pups. I am new to this platform, but not to pet sitting! I am currently working part time, only in the mornings three days a week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I go for a run every day, and would love to take your dog with me if he/she is up for it! I love to spend time playing with, walking & entertaining your pets, making sure they spend as much time doing what they love as possible. I can care for pets in your house or take them out on day trips/adventures it that's allowed!
“Shenna was wonderful with our dogs and brought real peace of mind while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions, showed genuine affection for the animals, and carried a calm “I got this” confidence from start to finish. We came home to happy pets and a clean, well-cared-for home. Her reliability and care truly stood out, and we’d definitely book with her again.”
“Suzanne kept me in the know with my puppy daily and quick to respond. She and my pup got along very well and was well taken care of as well as the house itself. I recommend Suzanne to housesit for your furry friend! Thanks Suzanne ❤️”
“Melissa was great to work with. She made me feel very comfortable and she took great care of my puppy. She was very attentive to my specifications for my pup. She messaged with timely & detailed updates which helped ease my new dog mom nerves. Thanks Melissa!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Spokane is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Spokane
Caitlyn is absolutely amazing!! She has been working for months with my fear based reactive dog on building a relationship together through weekly trainings. Caitlyn is patient, trained in dog behavior and training tactics, very reliable, and willing to do anything to build trust with dogs. Now a days my dog Roxy and Caitlyn go on walks by themselves (huge victory for Roxy with anyone that is not her parents), my husband and I was able to take a vacation a full airplane ride away (first time we both got to go on a vacation together in three years since getting Roxy), and Roxy has gotten so much better with strangers in general due to her relationship with Caitlyn. I have recommended Caitlyn to my family and friends (she took care of my moms cats as well while taking care of Roxy since we all went on the same vacation) because she is trustworthy, reliable, great communicator, great trainer, kind human, and a hard worker. I can’t say enough about how awesome Caitlyn is!!
Lisa was wonderful with our pets and home while we were away! This was the first time we left our one year old mastiff and we wanted to make sure she didn’t pester our older dog too much. She did a great job of giving them a fun week while making sure both dogs got along. She left our house super clean and was very easy to work with. If you’re looking for someone you can trust, I highly recommend booking with her!
Nazzy has been a blessing for my kitty family. She always sends pictures and information about how my kitties are doing while I'm gone. She asks appropriate questions about their care and is kind and loving. I have always felt my kitties to be safe in her care. She helped me out with a last minute booking this Spring. I will continue to ask her to stay with my kitties. Thank you Nazzy.
Jacque was prompt, professional and most of all personable. Our dogs took to her right off the bat! We asked her to check in and she sent great pictures which we appreciated as it showed us how comfortable they were with her. We strongly recommend her and will definitely use her again when we are in town. Thank you, Jackquelyn!!!
Molly was prompt in responding to our last minute need, easy to work with, and communicated well w/each visit to check on our critters while we were away. She was open to checking in on our conventional pet (a cat) but also our non-conventional pets (baby chicks). Grateful for her services.
Audrey is a fantastic dog sitter! Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and quick responses. She was incredibly friendly, caring, and clearly great with Penny. I also really appreciated coming home to a tidy, well-kept house. Highly recommend and would happily book again!
This was the first time we used Rover for housesitting and Tessa was so wonderful with our two pups while we were away for the week. Our puppy can be a bit of a handful and Tessa was proactive, communicative and went the extra mile to try different things to help deter his bad behaviors while we were gone. She left our house clean and even refilled our stash of frozen Toppls so that we were good to go with puppy enrichment treats when we got home. Leaving our fur babies is always stressful but Tessa definitely made it a lot easier!
You can’t do any better. End statement, she’s the best. I had an emergency trip I could cancel or reschedule. Lauren stepped in super last minute, sent tons of pictures of super happy puppies/kitties. She even saved my kitties that I spaced and I accidentally shut the door to the bedroom locking them inside 🙄. Hero, right here, hire her!
Jordyn is hands-down the best sitter. We've been able to have her watch our dogs and home on a couple of occasions now, and we wouldn't hesitate to rebook with her again and again. She communicates regularly and adds peace of mind when we're away. I can't say enough good things about Jordyn! We're so thankful for her.
Talyn is amazing! My puppy Ru absolutely loves her, and she is both comforting and communicative! Ru has a lot of energy (she’s just a baby), and Talyn takes her on really nice long walks, does enrichments and gives her love. She also is a great communicator and leaves my house looking better than I left it - which is not expected, but such a nice surprise to come home to. She always does the dishes, washes the sheets, etc. I’ve used Talyn 3x now, and this last time my puppy was having some breathing concerns while I was gone. Talyn calmly kept me in the loop on what was going on, but also made me feel confident that she had it handled. She provided updates, great communication and reassurance. Talyn is absolutely my go-to Rover and I’m (and you will be) lucky to have found her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Spokane
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Spokane on Rover is $52.17 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 758 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Spokane. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Spokane walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Spokane maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Spokane 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spokane. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
