“Katherine took great care of our two cats! She’s also a very talented photographer and we’ll be saving many of the daily photos she sent because they’re so artfully done. We will definitely reach out to her again next time we need a pet sitter!”
“Sara is AMAZING! She took care of my 3 cats for 10 days and did more than expected. She was prompt with stopping by everyday after her classes to feed and check on the cats. She spent time each evening giving them snuggles and pets. Cleaned their bowls and litter box and sent me photos everyday. I felt very comfortable knowing they were well cared for while I was gone and by the photos it looked my cats were very happy too 😊 She is a vet student at WSU so I also knew that if any of cats were sick, she would take good care of them and get them any needed medical attention. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Had to leave my 8 month old puppy and 13.5 yr old for the day. I expected a couple of stressed out yup dogs and what I came home to were mellow happy boys. She even watered my plants! Highly recommend Peyton.”
About: I am a current vet student on my clinical rotation. I know small animal CPR and well knowledge and skilled in administering medications to dogs and cats. As a full time student. My schedule varies each week but willing to work things out to help take care of your pet. Some weekends free I have a friendly small size 13 year old dog. I can provide dog walks, play time, and company for your pet. I can also help administer medications if your pet has any medical condition that’s being managed
About: I’ve been a dog trainer for 5 years and frequently work with animal behavior, loose leash walking, and puppy basics. I’ve also been a dog groomer and bather for 3 years and have worked at various boarding facilities, so I have a lot of hands on experience with animal care and all the everyday parts of caring for dogs. I’ve also worked on an AKC German Shepherd farm doing conformation showing and training, and I’ve fostered 6 puppies that I trained and prepared for their new families — they still keep in touch with me daily! I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re in my care. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups **(Me and a roomate in the home I will be the sole and only caretaker of your pet throughout the week.)**I live just a few steps from Reaney Park and visit there frequently, so walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my routine. I have Sundays off every week and am happy to dedicate that day to extra time and attention with your pup. My home is dog proofed and set up to be a safe, comfortable place for your pup. I have two very friendly dogs who can interact with your dog if they’re comfortable with each other, or they can be put away if your dog prefers their own space. Both of my dogs are off-leash trained, but when a client’s dog is staying with me, the door does not open unless that dog is safely leashed. We’re 10 steps away from Reaney Park, where client dogs stay on a leash or long line the entire time. We also have a fenced balcony that your dog can enjoy with supervision if you’d like them to have access to it. Inside, there are plenty of appropriate toys to chew on and cords, surfaces, and other hazards are kept out of reach. Your dog will be supervised whenever they’re not safely crated. I love giving dogs as much freedom as they can safely handle, so please feel free to tell me your pup’s expectations, routines, and requirements. I’m happy to follow them and make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds in my home. While I currently only have a cat, I’ve been the owner of several dogs, a couple snakes, a bearded dragon and I’m not afraid of really any type of animal. I have a pretty open schedule, single mom to a couple of boys and pet mom to one sweet cat. I love snuggling any animal. So I live in an apartment but very frequently go out to trails and parks with my kids, I would have no problem including your pet!
About: I also constantly grew up with dogs in my life, small, big, old and young. I understand how to wear them out with every trick in the game I am a full time student but mainly taking online credits, most the time hanging out with animals is my joy, not a job or task. I live in an apartment and will not be hosting animals in my home. I would absolutely love too but with my situation I cannot.
About: My experience ranges wide from puppy training + care, all the way too administering medicine for senior dogs and caring for their special needs! I pride myself on ensuring the individual needs of each different pet are met, no matter what they may be! I currently attend Washington State University at the Pullman campus! I have classes M-F in the afternoon, but am extremely flexible in my scheduling otherwise! Safety & client relationships are a top priority in how I care for pets. I believe open communication between a sitter and client is crucial for peace of mind when allowing for someone else to care for your babies. I provide updates, pictures, and messages to ensure comfort on both ends. Honesty is key! I also take home safety seriously when visiting clients' properties. Locking all exterior doors, windows, and garages are a primary focus post-visiting your pet. I understand it may be nerve wracking to invite someone into your space with your furry companion, and I want to ensure I am treating your environment with the upmost respect and care.
“Emma was amazing with my cats. She was very patient with one of my cats who gets scared around strangers, and got him to warm upto her within couple of days. She was gracious enough to run over to my place outside of the booking time when I noticed on camera that my cats knocked over a water bowl to make sure they are fine and have enough water. I will definitely rebook with her.”
About: I’ve loved and worked with dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around them taught me how to understand their needs, personalities, and behaviors from an early age. I especially enjoy walking dogs and helping with basic training, whether that’s reinforcing good leash habits or teaching simple commands. Now that I’m in college, I don’t get to spend as much time with dogs as I’d like—so being on Rover is the perfect way for me to do what I love while making pets happy and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with each dog I meet. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, exercised, and loved when you're not there. I'm currently a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I am free almost all day aside from the mornings; on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am free in the late afternoon and evening. While I can’t have pets right now as a college student, I grew up on a farm where our dogs were exercised daily, brought inside, and crated at night. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your dog’s usual schedule closely—making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and a calm, secure environment so they feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats ever since I was born, taking care of young and older pets. Adjusting my care depending on the pets needs. I am a college student but have time on the weekends; Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays being in the afternoon. I’m pretty flexible but would appreciate a heads up if plans change. I’ve grown up with having a fenced area that we let our pets run around in as well as take them on walks to provide them plenty of exercise
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and ages. I have my own dog and am very adaptable when it comes to pet care. I’m an avid animal lover and am prepared to provide any kind of care that your pet needs. I’m currently looking for side jobs during the summer while I am in Pullman, so pet-sitting fits perfectly into my current lifestyle. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog-walking, and house-sitting. I’m experienced in training my own dog, so I am well-equipped to uphold boundaries and training for your pets. I’m prepared to respect any boundaries and rules you have for your dogs and/or cats. I’m also experienced with having a pup with some medical conditions that require medication and monitoring, so I’m prepared to handle pets that may have some medical needs.
About: I’ve always been bless to deal with all the family animals. I was always the walker, feeder, trainer, and the one that gave baths for them. I am a u of I graduate and have a lot of extra time in my hands. I was a student athlete for the last 4 years and am still super active and would love to help dogs get their energy out. I am mainly doing this for the summer to earn a little extra money to help with my living situation. I have several animals of my own that ranch from dogs, horses, cows, and chickens. I will do my best to care for your animals needs! I have a place in Uniontown wa that has 5 acres that my dog loves to run on. I also have a barn with other animals so taking care of the needs that the animal may have I can do that. I am willing to come to Moscow, Pullman, Lewiston to help out your fur baby.
“Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of our “problem child” Murphy! He’s very protective of us and is weary of new people. Stephanie took the time to come by for four nights before we left so she could spend time getting to know Murphy so he was comfortable while we were gone. He ended up loving Stephanie and giving her lots of cuddles! We will definitely be calling on her to take care of Murphy again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 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.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
