“Caitlyn was very communicative, attentive and loving with our dog while we went away for a few days. She stayed at our house and left it in better shape than when she arrived!!”
“Larke was absolutely incredible with our little ones as we took a 9 day trip abroad. She was attentive, gave oral medicine, lots of photos, and she left our home looking lovely!! Larke truly gave us peace of mind and gave our pets the love and care they needed. Thank you so much!!”
“Jennifer was great! Milo was very comfortable and well taken care of. She sent us picture updates. She even washed the sheets and remade the bed!! Above and beyond. We will be asking her again.”
“We used Damien for just a short 2 night trial trip and was great. One of our dogs gets very excitable when first meeting someone new, jumping up and not listening. She finally settles down, but takes some firm action at first to get her to listen. Damien was very patient but firm and after the first 20 minutes were buddies the rest of the stay, going back to her chill self. He was prompt, followed all instructions and gave lots of quality time with our dogs. We feel we can plan a longer trip now and feel confident dogs will be in good hands. I recommend Damien with confidence.”
“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!”
“Nazeerah was AMAZING. We have a timid, people-selective wolfhound. He sounds intimidating when he gets scared. She was so respectful of his boundaries and allowed him the time to approach her on his terms. By the end of the weekend, she was petting him and he was cuddling with her. Our other dog loved her from start. This speaks volumes about her character, dogs know good people. The most important thing she did though was put my mind at ease so I could be fully present on our family get together and not be concerned about what was happening at home. She provided updates and pictures of all my animals (goats, chickens, dogs and cats) several times a day. Our only heat source is a woodstove and even though the stove can be temperamental, she worked the problem and kept it going. We have had many house sitters over the years but never one as conscientious and caring as Nazeerah. I think the dogs were disappointed when we showed back up instead of her. She is truly an animal lover and more importantly, knows how to put their owners at ease by providing love to their fur babies. We recommend her to everyone and will definitely have her come back 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 ❤️”
“Amanda was great! She knows animals and was very attentive to our pets, sending occasional pictures which reassured us everything was going well. Our time away was completely without worry! Wonderful experience!”
“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.”
“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. 🤩”
“She did a great job with our two crazy dogs and put up with us asking for pictures everyday. The house was clean when we got home and both of our dogs seemed like they had a great time!”
“I can't say enough how much I appreciate and love Ashten & Shelby! They did amazing with my pup as always and even earned some kitty cuddles which is very rare for my cats when they're around strangers. as an employee of Rover, this is the experience i hope for all Rover users”
About: I've owned cats most of my life and taken care of family members’, friends’, and neighbors’ dogs and cats for years. My first kitty living on my own had severe health issues and anxiety, requiring extensive treatment and TLC. I know how difficult it can be being away from our furry family members knowing they need us and want to help ease some of that worry. I have experience administering medications, caring for anxious animals, and feeding special diets. I'm also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates. :) I work part time as a caregiver; it’s flexible, and the rest of my days are free for drop-in visits! I am also available to stay the night for house sitting. Every pet has their own personality and unique needs, and I think owners know their pets best. I am happy to follow whatever instructions you may have.
“Melissa is an incredible pet sitter! I was so anxious about leaving my dog for the day, as she had recently had some injuries and I needed someone who would be willing to give her medication and approach her with a lot of gentleness and care. Melissa eased my mind while I was gone, and I will absolutely be asking her back when I need someone to come hang out with Dolly!”
About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child. This included staying over, walking, feeding, training and playing. At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability for walks and drop ins! I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape! For pets coming to my house they must be crate trained (for when I sleep) and friendly with other dogs.
About: I've owned dogs and cats for most of my life. I also worked for Alaska Air Cargo for several years where I handled and cared for dogs, cats, and other animals on a daily basis. I pay attention to body language and cues to tell me how to interact best with your pet. I've worked with several different trainers and I now only employ force-free methods. Haven't met a pet who doesn't like me yet! My rates are for homes within 5 miles. I charge an additional $1 per mile if you are further than that. I have an 7-4 Monday-Friday job. I'm available before and after work. I can stop by later in the evening if your pet needs a bed time story, too! Weekends I'm generally available anytime. I'll stick to your instructions for pet care in your home. Any special toys or enrichment needs, I got it covered! I've walked dogs of all sizes so I'm pretty comfortable taking yours out when needed.
“Megan did a fantastic job of caring for our two Chihuahua mix dogs and our cat. Our house was in order and our pets happy when we returned home. . We will not hesitate to use Megan’s services again when we go out of town.”
“Jasmine was awesome! Great communication and I can tell she’s confident and experienced with dogs. I was a dog sitter for 10 years and it’s weird to be on the other side now. We felt very comfortable having Jasmine stay in our home with our dogs. They were happy when we came back and our house was just as we left it. We loved the photos she sent as well! Thanks, Jasmine!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Spokane is $50

Morgan did a fantastic job watching our cat and high drive GSP. She was willing to spend lots of time outside playing in the yard and was very attentive to our animals needs. She was conscious of the warmer weather and was sure to take make our dog take breaks and she made sure they had water at all times. She was very respectful of our house and left everything in order. I would absolutely book with Morgan again in the future.
She was absolutely amazing with both of my dogs! I have a big pit bull who can be intimidating and barks at people she doesn’t know, as well as a very temperamental Chihuahua, and she handled them both so well. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. She stayed in communication with me throughout the entire booking, and she sent me updates with pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, and great with dogs of all personalities! I made a last minute booking and am so glad she was available next day:)
David watched our senior pup and was nothing but fantastic. Asked lots of questions and ensured everything was in place for his stay. We received daily updates and we could tell when we came home that our pup had been well taken care of. We'd be thrilled to have Jennifer and David watch Rys again and recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
I had a wonderful experience with Jennifer! She gave me complete peace of mind while I was on vacation and took excellent care of my Shih Tzus. She was kind, communicative, and regularly sent picture updates, which I really appreciated. My pups looked completely relaxed and comfortable with her. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!
Audrey was amazing with my dogs! One of my dogs was pregnant when she watched them so was being weird about eating her food so she worked through with me giving her different things to get her eating again. She also sent me plenty of pictures and updates while I was gone. I would absolutely use her again!
Jhonas was patient in meeting our pups especially the shy pup. He took the time during a meet and greet to make sure the pups and owners (us) were comfortable. He left the house as clean and organized as when we left and sent updates daily. Thanks Jhonas, it made us feel comfortable leaving our babies for a full week.
I can't say enough how much I appreciate and love Ashten & Shelby! They did amazing with my pup as always and even earned some kitty cuddles which is very rare for my cats when they're around strangers. as an employee of Rover, this is the experience i hope for all Rover users
Allison (Rae) took incredible care of both my dog and my sister’s pup over the Fourth of July weekend! She walked and played with them a lot and made them both comfortable despite their separation anxieties. She left the house spotless and even ran a load of dishes! I would definitely have her house and dogsit for me again!
Melissa was great! She stayed at our house for a week, taking care of our two quirky medium-sized dogs, plus chickens and fish too. It was clear she cared about our pets and paid attention to details. She sent updates regularly and went above and beyond to keep everyone safe when she spotted a porcupine nearby. We felt really comfortable with her and would absolutely use her again. Thank you, Melissa.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Spokane on Rover is $51.64 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 759 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:
- 95% 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.
