“Alex was great with our cat, Taydo. Taydo was very shy during the meet and greet and anxious around strangers, but I was happily surprised to see how quickly she warmed up to Alex during her drop ins. Alex was also very communicative and provided detailed daily updates and great pictures of Taydo while we were out of town which we loved!”
“My standoffish cat warmed up to Shalindra. Shalindra maintained daily communication with pictures too! She left my home in good order. I will definitely use Shalindra again.”
“I cannot begin to express how amazing Hailey is! On her last booking with me my kitty got very sick, she took initiative and made sure she got to the vet emergency room and kitty ended up needing emergency surgery. Some other pet sitters may not have been so observant or disregarded what was happening. I truly believe she saved my kitty's life. Hailey is an absolute Angel and I am so grateful for her!”
“Brooklin is truly the best. She was incredibly helpful and flexible during booking. While we were gone, she took absolutely amazing care of our kitties, sent frequent and thorough updates, and went above and beyond to ensure that they were happy and healthy the whole time! She even brought over fans to help keep them cool during a heat wave. Hands down the best pet sitter we’ve ever used and I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I have taken care of my close friends and families many cats and dogs of different breeds and amazingly different personality types for at least the last 15 years. Who doesn't love an exuberant leg rub hello from a lovey kitty or a jumping puppy who loves to give kisses? However, keep in mind I do have a special skill set with both cats and dogs that are very unsure of new people. When I enter an animals home I actively ignore shy animals, sit quietly and let them come to me on their own terms. I have a strong understanding of those classic stress signals, the cute but warning whale eyes, the lip licking (and not because they are hungry) and flat ears. I am also versed in diabetic care for cats as well. I am comfortable with large breed dogs and have experience with German Shepherds and Bully Breeds. In addition I am willing to wear an N95 as needed for any immune compromised needs. Looking forward to meeting your adorable animals! I currently work week days but I am free in the afternoon and evenings Monday-Friday starting at 3:30pm and have open flexibility on most Federal Holidays, Saturdays and Sundays. I will be coming to you and your pet to provide the upmost familiarity and comfort for them. I have a calm slow approach and let shy animals come to me to acclimate. I am a pro at following specific instructions you might request because every pet is as unique as their people are and deserve the best. I am familiar with basic cat and dog first aid and have emergency vet numbers saved.
About: I have pet sitted for many of my friends and family. I love to play and give affectionate to our canine friends. I can give dogs their needed medication and bathe them if necessary. I am available Saturday evenings. My free days are usually Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. My schedule can be flexible depending on your times needed to watch your pets. I have a fenced dog park in my complex. I am able to crate dogs if necessary. I will adhere to any instructions you may have when I come to your home to check in on your animals.
About: Hello! My speciality is taking your dog(s) for a good run/jog, and returning them happy and hungry, ready to conk out! At a pace tailored to their needs/abilities, I can handle any age/size and any energy level! I find that most dogs respond well to an energetic/playful pace, with minimal leash pressure/guidance, they want to GO. I always stay aware of where their attention is at, if they need a bathroom/scent marking break or a chance to investigate a good smell, or a panting breather (or if I do), I will of course cater to that! I Prefer 60 min sessions, 2.5-5 mile jogs depending on the dog's capability and neighborhood terrain. Comfortable with 1-3 dogs per run, it's easier if they are of similar pace, but I'm okay managing being pulled by the leader, don't worry, it won't transfer to dragging the slowpoke! 11 Years of experience, just new to this platform, curious how much it will help grow my customer base, what with a more open schedule this fall/winter. I know there are some Huskys, some Sheepherders,Mountain dogs and some Malinois that are dying to join me! I find these guys endurance carries further than the pure speed of the sprinter dogs, but of course all are welcome in hand! Prices are set with the jogging+ pace in mind, if just looking for a true Walking pace(usually for the elderly canines), I'm open to offering a lower walking rate. My schedule is fairly open at the current point in time, only a few credits worth of classes and recreational sports, otherwise if within a reasonable distance I should be available most days/evenings I do not offer boarding, my lease is a no pet lease, but in terms of dropping in to a client's home, I have pride in upkeeping the utmost integrity, and basically act as if under constant surveilance at all times, mainly by my own conscience, but likely by home security as well. I have nothing to hide in my behavior.
“Carrianne was very attentive and left detailed descriptions of every visit and her observations of the cats. Very happy with service and would absolutely book her again.”
About: What truly sets me apart is my calm, steady presence and my firm but kind temperament — pets pick up on our energy, and I strive to create a safe, relaxed, and positive environment for every animal in my care. Whether I’m reassuring a nervous rescue, setting gentle boundaries for an excitable pup, or coaxing a shy kitty out for treats and snuggles, I approach every situation with patience, and warmth. I believe in treating every pet like family, learning their individual routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry companions and give them the care and attention they deserve! I am away in the morning for a few hours then I work from home the rest of the morning/afternoon. I’m able available to attend to their needs as they arise and provide plenty of attention, potty breaks and walks throughout the day — not just during quick check-ins. I am available to care for your pet in my home or your home depending on the service requested. Whether in my home or yours, I will feed your pet according to their feeding schedule, provide fresh water at all times, engage in play with them and clean up after them. In my home I am able to provide a quiet, peaceful, pet-friendly environment with a large fenced in yard to run around in. Inside I love to draw the blinds and give pets a cozy spot by the window to sunbathe while watching the people, pets and wildlife pass by. It is my motto to leave a space better than you left it so while in your home I will not only follow all routines and procedures as needed but I also like to tidy up after the animals and provide photo updates to put you at ease.
“Ashely is super professional and reliable! Dropped in to take care of my two cats a couple days and it went great! She even did a little extra to help out and couldn't ask for anyone better! Will be rebooking in the future!:) thanks Ashley!”
About: For 2 years I worked as a veterinary assistant and after moving to Pullman to continue my education in animal care I gained experience in grooming, boarding and elderly care. I have just moved to Renton and am in-between jobs. I use rover as a second job when I do have a job but as of right now I am open for care fulltime. Often times owners will provide me with a strict set of guidelines to be followed with there pet. I will always follow these to a T as owners know there pet best. I'm trained to recognize signs and symptoms of common illnesses and am certified in Animal CPR and recovery analysis. It is my top priority to make sure your pet is healthy and happy under my care.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their loving animals. I grew up with cats however I have taken care of many dogs as well. I am an all around animal lover and would love it for you to trust me with your pet! I currently have a full time job, however my days typically end around 4:30. This gives me enough time to still do evening walks, sitting, and overnights as another way to destress and why not do that with a furry friend! I have the most free-time on weekends due to not having to be at work. Anytime with a pet is a great time for me! I live in an apartment however there are parks nearby that are dog friendly and perfectly safe and fine to go for a walk and get some fresh air. There are also areas by the water that are nice to walk around as well. As for cats my apartment is nice and spacious and they would have space anywhere to hangout and lay down for company, pets, and sun!
About: I’ve been caring for cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, and many other animals for most of my life. I’ve had two wonderful dogs of my own, a Basset Hound and a Dachshund, who were a huge part of my heart. They were both pretty stubborn, so along the way I picked up some useful training skills as well. My schedule is flexible and can be adjusted with one week’s notice before the boarding date. Otherwise, I’m available anytime on weekends and weekdays after 5 p.m. I’m happy to coordinate and accommodate your scheduling needs whenever possible. I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for every pet, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, while giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m happy to follow specific instructions for medications, special diets, and individual needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away!

Kizzie always does an incredible job with our cats. We have cats with digestive issues, when that needs medicine each feeding, and an elderly cat. Not only does Kizzie take great care of their needs, but she will often go above and beyond. Highly recommend for anyone needing pet care.
I cannot begin to express how amazing Hailey is! On her last booking with me my kitty got very sick, she took initiative and made sure she got to the vet emergency room and kitty ended up needing emergency surgery. Some other pet sitters may not have been so observant or disregarded what was happening. I truly believe she saved my kitty's life. Hailey is an absolute Angel and I am so grateful for her!
Brooke did a wonderful job taking care of our three kitties while we were on our trip. She sent pictures of them every day and left us notes with all of the things she did for them during her drop-ins. She was so sweet and caring and our kitties grew very fond of her. If we take another trip in the future, I will be sure to hire her again, the peace of mind that she allowed us to have while being away was priceless ❤️
Fei was incredibly communicative and so sweet with our cats. She is clearly a lover of animals, and I felt immediately comfortable having her take care of our two kitties for a week while we were gone. She sent regular pictures and seemed to get to know their personalities quite quickly, she asked great questions on our walk-through and I really appreciated her communication and attention to detail. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her highly!

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 .
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 .
