“We loved having Charlene care for miss Phoebe while I was out of town. She took her for walks and was very communicative through the whole thing. Thanks and I'll def book her again.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole childhood and my neighbors dog was twice my size and walking him was no issue. I’ve had cats my whole life and am somewhat of a whisperer. I’ve taken care of rodents as well when I had a pet rat. I am always available for any pet sitting needs. I currently don’t have a job or school lined up so I am all yours anytime of the week. I love playing with pets because it makes me feel like a kid and that’s really special. I can adapt to any process you might have to care for your pets. I am a kind and gentle soul for pets to warm up too. I have the stamina to keep up with energetic dogs aswell.
About: Providing unconditional love & support for dogs & cats. My biggest passion is the love for animals. Earned a veterinary assistant certification at Northwest Career & Tech Academy. Looking forward to meeting your fur babies! 😀 I have open availability Monday-Sunday anytime during the week. I currently don't have any other job that could get in the way of my availability. I live on 5 acres of property with two German shepherds, two French bulldogs & 4 cats. There's a fenced area with 2 dog kennels I could separate from my animals if needed.
“Dasha helped take care of our cat while we were out of town. She was very thorough in her initial walk-through with us. She made sure she had all the right details, even down to where to put used food bowls. Her updates were very informative with loads of good photos. I've already scheduled Dasha for the next time we will be out of town, because everything went really well!”
About: Fostering puppies, horses, and birds was a family job growing up. I have experience in taking care of sick, recovering, and aging dogs. Both my dogs currently are 11 years old, so I know how stressful it can be trying to find care for them. They require more frequent restroom visits, focused care on comfort, and overall more time and attention. I can help with that! I've trained both dogs, have experience with training puppies, and can manage high or low energy animals. I'm currently in college full-time. Most of my days are spent studying on campus, which means I have a need for some fur therapy! I'll gladly walk, feed, and play with your pets as much as needed. Non-verbal cues are essential to building trust with animals. I do my best to pay attention to how my own pups communicate through head position, tail, eye, and mouth movement, as well as general body language. I'm a stranger to your pup, so I'll be sure to act carefully until they're comfortable with me. I know how important a routine is-my pups are getting older, and the more they age, the more they want to stick to a schedule! I hope to know more about how you take care of them, what their day looks like, and will do my best to replicate so the transition isnt rough!
About: I have a giant 110 pound dog and I have been walking him for years. I have a lot of experience with walking all types of dogs, big, small, reactive, and trained. I currently only do DoorDash deliveries and Instacart deliveries for income, so my schedule is flexible and open. This is what I’m looking to do for income. I won’t necessarily be able to bring the dogs to my house because one of my dogs is not too fond of other dogs, but I can walk your dogs and feed your cats.
“Sarah was phenomenal! She did an amazing job with her communication, check ins, and detailed updates! It was comforting to know my babies were taken care of! I would 1000% book with her again! Thank you, Sarah!”
About: I’ve been helping care for pets my whole life! For family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve helped to care for anxious pets, reactive pets, and senior pets.

My two dogs are spoiled & well loved. I would treat your pets the same & would be happy to chat about what your pet care expectations look like :)
About: I have a cat and a dog that my family and I care for. I usually take my dog on walks everyday. I also have years of experience caring for other people’s animals.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stanwood
Charlene was a fantastic sitter for our cat! She was exceptionally communicative and reassuring. We felt totally comfortable that she was kind and trustworthy. Charlene enabled us to have full peace of mind knowing that our cat and home were being well cared for.
Hayli has been amazing! She’s been dropping in with our pup for a month now and has always shown up on time and provided excellent care. She is reliable, communicative, and always sends great updates and photos. We’re so grateful to have found her and recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
We have been using Jamie's dog walking/drop in service for several months now. We are so happy with her, she obviously loves dogs and cats, is very reliable, has been extremely patient and flexible with our changing schedules and is always quick with responses. She's been a perfect fit for us since we recently moved and needed our pup looked in on and walked a couple times a week.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Stanwood is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $34 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,259 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Stanwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
