“Christy was such a gem. She was so sweet, took great care of our cat while we were gone, and went above and beyond what was asked of her during the visits. She kept us very well informed during our trip, and was always punctual with her visits. I would absolutely recommend Christy to anyone in need of pet services.”

“Kim is awesome! Great communication, excellent service. We can now leave town again and know Nicky is in good hands. Kim took great care of Nicky while we were gone, giving his insulin, sending us pics :-) and letting us know everything is ok. 5/5 Will definitely call on Kim again!”

About: I am a mature, reliable, healthy, energetic woman that has owned homes in the US and Canada for 40 years. I have had many dogs and cats, most often large dogs. I want to house/pet sit throughout the US so I will be able to get to know different regions during my retirement. I am fully Covid vaccinated. While I am retired, I continue to volunteer a lot for my church and several local organizations. While pet sitting, I usually do quilting projects in the morning, explore in the afternoons and knit while watching TV in the evenings. I usually care for pets in their own home. I believe this is the least stressful for the pets and my clients say I give them peace of mind while they travel.

“Nicole has been like a second cat mom to our two rag doll kitties. I book her every single time we go on a trip. She is the best. I feel so at ease when I know Nicole will be caring for our girls while we are away. She brings them treats, brushes them, and even puts on their "favorite program" (Cat TV). Nicole always leaves our house clean, and refreshes all the food and water bowls. She goes above and beyond for us and our kitties. We appreciate her so much, and highly highly recommend her!”

About: We are a family of 3 who live in the Gig Harbor/Purdy area. Our home is located on 2.4 acres with open grass areas and a fenced area if your dog prefers to be outside. **Note: fenced area is currently undergoing some summer cleanup so dogs are not left unattended in the yard at this time. We provide a designated doggy sleeping area inside our home which includes a soft doggie bed. We will make sure your pet gets a lot of outdoor time taking walks with us. I also make homemade, healthy doggie treats to spoil them while they are vacationing with us. Your pet will be treated as if he/she was our own pet and will have plenty of playtime and attention. We love dogs and want them to feel at home in our country setting. Also we are not a large kennel, so we only have 2-4 dogs at one time which allows us to give each dog plenty of time and attention and keep things mellow for the dogs and us. We do have our own doggie Willow. She just turned 5 in July. She does well playing with dogs of all sizes. She has made many dog friends through my daycare. *Due to restrictions of our homeowners insurance, certain breeds are not accepted at this time.* I am home all day to watch and play with your pet. I rarely leave but when I sometimes have to leave for short periods, your dog will be very comfortable in our large dog crates with comfortable padded beds. Our family loves dogs and your pet will receive alot of attention and exercise. During the day they can be outside playing in the fenced area (**see above) or just hang out inside with our family, and in the evenings all dogs sleep inside the house with us. We do use crates at night for dogs that are used to that and we provide soft dog bedding in the crates. Dogs that do not prefer crates sleep on dog beds in our bedrooms so they never feel alone.

About: Brad and I both have enjoyed our own cat family members and those of others, all our lives. I love how each kitty and doggy has its own personality and marvel at how they are such a gift frim God to us humans! We also look forward to raising some travel funds! I work for my home office 2 to 3 days a week and I'm home about half the time on weekends. Talk to us we can figure out how we can help you and your pets! We love animals especially cats, love to play with them and pet them, and are very practical and responsible with the instructions in their care. We have had many cats before, usually ones that were destined to be outdoor cats. We know that cats that live primarily indoors tend to live longer. We totally understand owners wanting there has to be totally indoors.

“Taylor was an excellent and trustworthy contact!! We don’t have pets (yet) but I was in sudden need of assistance to keep our many plants watered while we suddenly needed to be out of town for a couple of weeks. She kept us updated and even sent great photos to show how our plants were! We feel so grateful to have had her help and will 💯 book again!”

About: I have been pet sitting professionally for three years. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks and lizards. I am comfortable working with dogs of all sizes from 130+ lb livestock guardian breeds to 5 lb chihuahuas. I have experience working with dogs with behavioral challenges like resource guarding and anxiety. I have over three years of experience with positive reinforcement training and I am currently working on a certification program to become a horse trainer. I would love to keep up your dog's training while you are gone and work with you to support any current training or management plans. I am patient and I love to work with puppies (and kittens) and adolescent dogs. I have 9 years of experience volunteering at a horse barn. I am comfortable working with horses and other livestock animals. I have experience giving oral medication and all the day to day care a horse requires. I am currently pet sitting full time. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate your pet's needs and routine. Let me know how much alone time your pet is comfortable with. I always follow instructions and management plans to the letter. I don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or clarifications as needed. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Kelsey while we were out of town for a week! Communication was truly excellent — we always felt informed and reassured while we were away. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our travel plans unexpectedly changed, which meant so much to us. We loved receiving frequent photos and updates, and it was clear our pets were happy and well cared for. Beyond being reliable and professional, she was genuinely kind and thoughtful. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have both senior cats and a senior dog (pug) at home. Caring for aging pets has taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, consistency, and understanding each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and love getting to know each pet’s unique routine and energy level. I recently graduated and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the week for dogs and cats of all ages! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays during both weekdays and weekends, and I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with pets during the day. I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, especially while their owners are away, and I strive to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of attention to help pets feel comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and helping them feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications, and each pet’s individual needs and personality. I can easily crate a dog if necessary. I also value clear communication, cleanliness, and treating every home and pet with respect and care.

About: I don't have any "formal" experience training puppies or anything like that. I've just been a cat mom for over 30 years and share custody of a 16.5-year-old Golden Doodle named Maestro the Lady Killer. He loves going on short walks and getting treats afterward. I am self-employed and a contract social worker so I make my own schedule. Caring for your furry family members can happen when you need me. Your furry family member's safety is my top priority. As a pet parent, I will treat your furry family member the way I'd expect a sitter to take care of my furry kids. I follow instructions well, so if you tell me they have a strict feeding schedule, I will follow it.

About: I have taken care of dogs since my childhood, both my family dogs and those of friends and neighbors. I am comfortable giving oral medications as my dog takes daily oral medication. I have also watched our friends and neighbors cats since I was a teenager and know how special it is when they take a liking to you. My schedule is very flexible as I am currently between jobs after moving! Even when I start working it will be 3-4 days a week. My dog is not always dog friendly so I will not be bringing her on any walks. I can follow any specific directions you have about your pet as they are all unique!

“Anna was a phenomenal pet sitter, and we will not hesitate to hire her again! First, and most importantly, our animals were well cared for. We appreciated the updates, and photos and videos Anna sent. All of their daily tasks were taken care of and we came home to clean pens and litter boxes. She also treated our house with such respect. It was so nice to get home and have happy animals and a clean house.”

Jerry is the best cat sitter ever. Both of my shy cats come out to greet him when he comes to visit and they even rub his legs. If you knew them, you would know how amazing that is.

Ross was an absolute Godsend!! He took such good care of my kitties, and they warmed up to him rather quickly, even my shy girl Rosie. He kept in touch promptly and made sure to leave detailed notes after each visit. He was extremely accommodating as well, as maintenance had to change my locks while I was away and I also had a package delivered early... I informed him of all of this and he graciously changed my keys on my key ring and made sure my package made it inside safely. He went above and beyond the call of duty and I felt my kitties were in great hands. I would 100% book with him again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Swede Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Swede Hill is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $241 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 November 2026, there are 1,914 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Swede Hill. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Swede Hill. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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.

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.
