About: I have loved caring for animals since I was about 10 years old! I used to walk my neighbors’ dogs and give them baths, which helped me gain experience caring for different dogs. I also have a Doberman that I raised from a puppy and helped become very well-behaved. Raising him has taught me patience, consistency, and how important it is to understand each dog’s personality and needs. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and the love I have for animals. I will treat your pets like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! 🐾❤️ Writing I work part-time, usually no more than five hours a day for about three days a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have school on Tuesdays from 12:40 to 3:30 p.m., but outside of those commitments, my schedule is pretty flexible. I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, baths, and giving your pets lots of love and attention. I want to make sure your pets get the care they need while you're away! Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for pets. I always want animals to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. In a client's home, I would follow their instructions carefully, stick to the pet's normal routine, keep their space clean, and make sure they have fresh water, food, and plenty of attention. I would always be careful with doors, gates, and leashes to keep pets safe. I also understand that every animal is different, so I would take the time to learn their personality and needs. I would treat your home with respect and care for your pets as if they were my own!

About: From a simple feed, check in and walk, to a week long house sit, I’ve had much experience taking care of all the sweet doggies out there! Having housed a few myself over the years, and a rescuer of one sweet little wiener named Bo, I will care for your best friend the best I can!! I’m a mom to three kids, and while they go to school during the day, I’d honestly love to make a little extra money to be able to support them more with their hobbies and other things they would love to do participate in to enhance their future! Taking care of pets seem like a great way to do that. I thrive on instructions for you pet(s) to ensure I can meet the needs to your little besties as well as satisfying the needs of their parents (you!)

About: I’ve taken care of cats, I have 2 cats as well! While I was in college my roommates had dogs that I would watch when they would leave or couldn’t come home in time. I’m good with both both cats and dogs. Im currently working part time, I don’t think pet sitting is a job it’s so fun to do so I would love it as a side job. I’m also getting my masters in biomedical sciences right now My pets have access to every inch of the house and are well cared for, toys, scratch post and many treats! I love playing with them, taking them outside, feeding and can also clean litter boxes

About: I have had pets of my own for over 30 years. I love all animals and think they all have different and special personalities. Currently, I have one dogs (Pembroke-Welsch Corgi) and one cat (a Maine Coon). I am available for weekday walks, evening care, and petsitting on weekends or longer if scheduled ahead of time. I can either come to your pet, take them to a park, or bring them to my home for socializing with my pets. Whatever you like! I have a fully-fenced yard and one friendly dog that can socialize with your pup(s) if interested. Otherwise, we can make accommodations for crating if that is requested.

About: I been fostering kittens for two years with my partner, including bottle-feeding newborns, caring for young or special needs litters, and administering medications. It's been an incredibly rewarding experience and has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and animal care. I also have experience house-sitting for both cats and dogs through the Rover app, making sure pets stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and always treat them like my own. I work full-time, but pet care is still a big part of my routine because I’m super flexible and adaptable. I’m comfortable managing tasks around my schedule and always prioritize making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, especially kittens I’m fostering, I provide a safe, clean, and nurturing environment. I make sure they get plenty of social interaction and gentle handling to help them thrive. I also monitor their health closely and keep their space sanitized to prevent illness. When caring for pets in a client’s home through house sitting, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding routines, medication, exercise, or playtime. I treat their home and pets with respect, maintaining the usual environment to keep pets comfortable and stress free. I also provide regular updates to owners so they feel connected and confident while away.

“My husband and I would give 10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ no hesitation! We boarded our shy diabetic cat with Qing while traveling overseas, and we've never felt more at ease! We received dozens of pictures AND videos every single day along with detailed care notes and it felt like we never left our cat! Medications and injections were done PERFECTLY and closely observed by Qing! Because we had sitter messed up the meds before and can't risk it anymore with a non-professional. It is even better that she has indoor and outdoor security motion cameras, so our kitty is always safe and comfortable in her calm home when we go on next trips. We highly recommend Qing for special and complex needs!”

About: About Me 🐾 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience in doggy daycare, kennel care, boarding, animal handling, and maintaining clean, safe environments for animals. Caring for animals has always been something I’m passionate about, and I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality, needs, and behaviors. Through my professional experience, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, safety, and understanding animal body language. I’m especially interested in dog behavior and training, and I enjoy building trust with animals at their own pace. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or has a personality all their own, I strive to make them feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pets and respecting your home. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s usual routine, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and follow your care instructions closely. I love working with all kinds of animals and believe every pet deserves kindness, respect, and individualized care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your animals feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry, feathered, or otherwise wonderful family members! 🐸🐱🐰🐶🐠❤️ My day-to-day routine includes caring for animals, keeping their environments clean and comfortable, and making sure their individual needs are met. I enjoy staying active, learning about animal behavior, and providing pets with attention, exercise, enrichment, and companionship. When caring for your pets, I prioritize following their normal routines, including walks, feeding schedules as instructed, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m attentive to their behavior and comfort levels and strive to provide consistent, reliable care while keeping owners updated on how their pets are doing. I stick to schedules and routines, I believe being a great pet sitter means more than just providing food, walks, and playtime. It means being patient, attentive, dependable, and understanding how to make each animal feel secure and respected. My experience has taught me the importance of recognizing animal body language, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and adjusting my approach to each pet’s comfort level. When you trust me with your pets, I want you to feel confident knowing they’re receiving thoughtful, personalized care. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, checking in on your pets while you’re away, or staying in your home to keep them company, my goal is to treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can rely on!

About: I grew up in a large family with many pets. We had five dogs and two cats growing up, and I have had my own pets since. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats over the years, though I just moved back to Washington, so I have no pets at the moment. I currently have open availability and am able to provide visits or stay over at clients homes to care for pets. I’m able to arrange arrival and departure to fit your schedule. I am able to fit whatever needs the client has. If your pets are accustomed to being out and about in the home, I can spend time with them that way. I also am able to use kennels for feeding or sleeping if that’s what they are used to. I’m comfortable keeping things tidy and making sure it’s a safe and clean space for them to hang out.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Tenino

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 729 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Tenino. 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 Tenino. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
