“Madison is the most reliable sitter I have found in the area, and my three dogs have come to welcome her to their little family pack. Very grateful to have met Maddy and she continues to go above and beyond taking care of them. It honestly helps me feel at ease knowing she is swinging by to see them. If anyone has any large dogs, Maddy has been an absolute champ with my three rambunctious doodles. She also helps me with my hedgehog which makes her even more qualified!”

“This is the second time I’ve utilized Claire’s services. Just like the first time, she was prompt and professional in her responses to the initial inquiry and following correspondence, came in at the requested time, took care of and spent some time with Cooper, and provided updates and pics. I came home to a happy pup :) Thanks again Claire!”

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: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.

About: I’ve been around dogs for many years and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and following each dog’s individual routine. I also have personal experience caring for a dog with allergies, so I understand the importance of following feeding instructions, avoiding known triggers, and paying attention to changes in a dog’s skin or behavior. I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention just like I would my own dog, Korona. 🐾 I’m retired from the military, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and plenty of playtime and attention. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while making sure each pet’s individual routine is followed. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and plenty of space for play and relaxation. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care while they’re away.

About: All my life, I’ve grown up around animals — cats, dogs, chickens, fish, and more — so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I also studied Animal Science for two years before switching career paths, and I’m currently a registered nurse which means I bring patience, responsibility, and attention to detail to everything I do. I currently live at home with my parents, my mini Aussie, and three cats, so animals are a big part of my daily life. My love and passion for animals has never changed, and I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I work part time at a coffee stand and currently seeking a new graduate nursing job. During this time of searching for a job, it gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m home most of the day, so I have plenty of time to focus on walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. It’s easy for me to fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine, and I love having animals be a part of my day. I don’t offer care in my own home, but I’m very comfortable caring for pets in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment, and I treat every home with respect and professionalism. My goal is to keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away!

About: Of my 10 years of pet care experience, 8 of those years includes veterinary medicine. I love all different kinds of animals, and am good with all types of personalities, fear levels, and temperaments. I can also administer medications and care for pets with special needs. My other work is freelance, so my schedule is usually open and flexible. Overnight stays are easy for me to configure, and I'm able to prioritize your pets in my schedule. My main priority is the pets safety and happiness. I have experience de-escalating anxiety, redirecting aggression, and navigating tension between pets. I always double leash dogs for walks and I am experienced with all varieties of leash, walk, and play based behavior.

About: I’ve helped raised 10 dogs: 2 samoyds, 2 golden retrievers, 2 labs, a border collie, a Dobermann, a Bernese mountain dog, and a chihuahua. I also was a door to door and pizza delivery man who Interacted with every type of dog as a stranger entering their territory. I’ve been in multiple threatening positions and have a lot of confidence from that. I can read demeanor very well. My most recent partner and I ended things and she took the dogs. Sad country song in the making lol. I find this therapeutic and isn’t just a side hustle. I genuinely love all dogs and it helps me just as much as helping you. I work from home as an insurance broker. I will shape my schedule around the dogs. I can also work anywhere so it allows me to travel to you as well. I have a fenced back yard with locks on the gate. My office is in the back yard with a big window for me to see them. I am an active dog watcher who goes with the flow of what the owner requests. I do not like leaving them alone ever. If I come to your house I will not have any guests over and I always give active updates.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m an avid hiker and have been lucky to share many trails with amazing “trail dogs” over the years. I’ve also pet sat for coworkers, doing drop-ins multiple times a day, and I’m currently providing overnight care for a puppy—something I truly enjoy. Over time, I realized this is something I’d love to do more of. When I say “us,” I mean my little household too: I have a mixed-breed dog and a cat. My cat is gentle and friendly and gets along well with dogs. My dog, Ziggy, is my first male and a rescue from the pound. He’s been a challenge at times, but with patience, consistency, and lots of love, he’s made wonderful progress—and continues to do so. Because of that experience, I have a special place in my heart for shelter dogs and pets who may need a little extra patience, care, and understanding. I’d love the opportunity to offer that same compassion and support to your pets, helping them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I happily offer drop-ins and overnight care on weekends and holidays. If there would be a special need, we most likely could work this out. I care for pets based on their normal routine and your preferences. Whether in your home or during overnights, I focus on feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, along with any special instructions you provide. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they’re used to.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Tenino

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tenino is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 1,360 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

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 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.

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.
