About: I didn't have pets as a child because we weren't allowed to but in my adult life I have taken care of many different kinds of animals. Including but not limited to birds, dogs, cats, snakes, geckos, fish, frogs and ducks. My children and I have always loved animals and are truly compassionate souls! My schedule is pretty flexible at this time due to me being self-employed. I have transportation and the ability to work week days and weekends. I prefer to not crate animals but I will if that is a request of the owner. I enjoy playing with and snuggling pets. Attention to detail is key to keeping animals and myself safe.

About: What makes me stand out from other dog sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had multiple dogs throughout my entire life, including different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of dogs and understanding their individual needs. I also have plenty of experience dog sitting for other people and treating their pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I’m dependable, responsible, and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I can also provide references from people I’ve dog sat for in the past who can speak about their experience with me. I am active duty army , but I would not accept any job that I know will conflict with my schedule. I am available to take your dog for a walk/ feed them and anything else you would like me to do at least 3 times a day. I am pretty flexible when it comes to dog parents and what they want me to do. Your safety of your animals is my top priority!

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’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was a youngling! I grew up with cats and dogs and then was able to house sit and pet sit for my neighbors. With my animal shelter job experience I am able to provide more tentative and loving care while being responsible and ready for any emergencies. As someone who is home constantly I am able to provide your pet with 24/7 care! I am very active and love to go on walks as well so if you have a dog I am always ready to be active with them!! When I have any animal in my home I am always alert and ready for anything to happen, but also I am always providing loving and caring care to the animals making sure they feel loved and their anxiety goes down! When I’m in other peoples home I am always extra aware of my surroundings and environment and make sure that the animals are comfortable with me.

About: I've had dogs my entire life, and I've had cats for around 6 years, working with puppies/kittens all the way to seniors. I've always had a passion for working with animals, hoping to foster once I get my own place, so I'm always open to any help I can provide. Currently, I'm doing delivery work and make my own schedule, and I've worked nights in the past, so I am open to work any time of day and with any task you may need! I have plenty of time on my hands, and plenty of animal love in my heart. I've spent my life watching my own dogs, both indoor and outdoor cats, and my neighbors pets, so I have lots of experience on keeping animals safe and happy.

About: I don't charge strictly by the number of animals. Instead, I base pricing on the overall time, care required, and complexity of the visit. Whether you have one pet or several that share the same routine, I'll provide a fair quote. Hi! I'm Gabriella, and I've been caring for animals my entire life. I grew up on a small farm raising pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and I've never been without dogs or cats. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life, from feeding and cleaning to recognizing when something isn't quite right. I've been providing pet care through Rover since 2021 and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and hobby farm animals. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, playtime, medication, or just someone to keep them company, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own animals. I'm also comfortable caring for livestock and multiple-animal households, making me a great fit for families with hobby farms or a variety of pets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and routine, and I strive to make each visit as stress-free and consistent as possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered!) family members! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I offer morning, afternoon, and evening visits and do my best to accommodate your pet's normal schedule. I understand how important consistency is, especially when you're away, and I'll communicate with updates and photos after every visit. Every pet is cared for according to their individual routine and your instructions. I'm experienced with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, pigs, and hobby farm animals, so I'm comfortable caring for multi-animal households. Safety is always my priority, whether that means double-checking gates, using leashes, crating when requested, administering oral medications, or making sure fresh food and water are always available. I'll treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

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.

About: My experience in pet care spans several years, during which I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and small pets. I am adept at providing essential care such as feeding, grooming, and exercise, as well as administering medications when necessary. I prioritize the well-being and comfort of pets under my care, ensuring they receive love, attention, and a safe environment. Pet care fits into my schedule through careful planning and dedication. I allocate specific times each day for feeding, grooming, exercise, and playtime, ensuring that pets receive the attention they need. This structured approach helps me balance their needs with my other responsibilities, such as work or school commitments. Additionally, I prioritize flexibility to accommodate unexpected events or emergencies, ensuring that pets always receive consistent and reliable care. This commitment allows me to maintain a harmonious routine that benefits both pets and their owners. In my approach to caring for pets, whether at my own home or at a client's residence, I maintain a consistent and attentive routine tailored to the needs of each individual animal: **Caring for Pets in My Home:** 1. **Dedicated Space:** I provide a safe and comfortable area within my home where pets can relax and feel at ease. 2. **Regular Exercise:** Daily walks, play sessions, and opportunities for exploration are integrated into their schedule. 3. **Nutritional Care:** I ensure pets receive balanced meals according to their dietary requirements, with access to fresh water at all times. 4. **Grooming:** Regular brushing, grooming, and hygiene maintenance are part of their routine to keep them clean and healthy. 5. **Social Interaction:** Pets receive companionship and attention throughout the day to prevent loneliness and promote mental stimulation. **Caring for Pets in Client's Home:** 1. **Respectful Environment:** I follow the homeowner's guidelines for pet care and house rules to maintain a harmonious environment. 2. **Routine Maintenance:** Feeding, watering, and bathroom breaks are performed according to the pet's usual schedule to minimize disruption. 3. **Activity and Engagement:** I engage pets in activities they enjoy, such as playtime, walks, or training exercises. 4. **Health Monitoring:** Observing for any signs of illness or discomfort, and promptly notifying the owner if concerns arise. 5. **Home Security:** Respecting the security protocols of the client's home, ensuring doors are securely locked and any alarms are set as instructed. In both settings, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets entrusted to my care, maintaining open communication with owners to provide updates and ensure peace of mind while they are away.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Tenino

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Tenino is $40 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $40 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 1,320 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Tenino. 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.

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 Tenino 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!

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.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Tenino with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 , 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.
