“Molly did a great job taking care of my Frenchie, she always communicated promptly about any issues that arose and shared a very thorough summary of each and every drop-in. She asked the right questions, and quickly replied to all of my messages. I definitely recommend her and will gladly use her services again in the near future.”

“Quinn was very nice with the cats. We came home to happy, well-fed animals with a clean living area. Quinn was respectful of our home and was responsible in our absence.”


About: I come from a 4-dog family and love spending time with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to do drops ins and overnight stays. I’m comfortable with basic medicine administration and special diets. Happy to take pups on walks, practice basic commands, and spend good quality time with your animals! I work 10:30-3:30 most days over the summer, so a combination of daily drop ins, walks, and some overnight work is doable. I’m flexible and communicative! If you schedule far enough in advance, I may be able to adjust my work schedule. In the fall, I’ll be back in graduate school, so my schedule will be a little different. We can talk! I’m happy to stay overnight in your place to keep your pets company. Drop in visits are also fine. I prefer visits under a week, but am flexible, and if you need a longer stay, we can chat.

“Louise is amazing! She takes great care of our two cats with drop ins. We look forward to the pictures she sends each visit. She’s a great communicator and obviously loves animals.”

About: I've had my own pets for over ten years, including a reactive dog so I know all pups need love! I've been the go-to dog and cat sitter for friends and family since I could drive, everything from weekend trips to month long visits, I've always been happy to help! As a pet parent we all know we need extra hands sometimes! I work part time, so although the times might vary based on the day, I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets! I know how hard it is to leave your furry babies, so I try to make sure that I do my best to quell that anxiety when I can! I've had to leave my pups with friends and loved ones before, so I know that worries of someone outside of your family stopping in. I listen to all boundaries just the same as I would expect a pet sitter to do for me. That's the golden rule: Treats others (and their spaces) how you would want to be treated.
“I was worried about my Little Girl feeling lonely at home while I was away on a last minute trip. Danielle was very communicative and shared pictures of my cat, which helped ease my mind. I highly recommend Danielle for your petsitting needs.”

“Super helpful and thorough! Always sends the cutest pictures and updates me on every visit! This is the third time Zoe has dropped in multiple days in a row on my cat and she always takes good care of him and communication is always great!”

About: I work part‑time and have a very flexible weekly routine, which means I’m able to spend extended, consistent time with pets throughout the day. I’m usually home for large stretches of the morning and early afternoon, and I keep my schedule intentionally open so I can prioritize walks, playtime, and companionship. Pet care is part of my daily routine; I schedule structured walks, maintain consistent feeding and play times, and provide attentive house‑sitting throughout the week. I’m an extremely outdoors‑focused person; long walks with any animal are my daily reset. In both my home and clients’ homes, I provide dependable, attentive care through structured walking routines and responsible, detail‑oriented house‑sitting.
“Kalyn was amazing! She stopped by to take care of my cat and he absolutely loved her She kept me updated and was really easy to communicate with. I felt totally comfortable knowing he was in good hands I’d definitely have her watch Mr. Jones again”

“Kayla was fantastic. With Tosca, our cat. We could tell that Tosca liked her from the meet and greet visit. Kayla sent us funny videos of tosca and a photo everyday. We’ll definitely ask her to sit Tosca again.”

About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I have extensive knowledge of animal health care and am prepared to administer medication and treat minor wounds. I have also worked as a professional dog hiker. In this role I walked up to 8 dogs of various sizes in the mountains near Victoria, BC, Canada. Through this role, I gained extensive experience as an obedience trainer. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes, as well as cats, birds and reptiles. I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was the owner of an adorable labradoodle named Max, who passed away in 2020. Since then, I have been a reliable dog and cat sitter for many friends, family and neighbors. I am currently a graduate student in the Environmental Philosophy program at the University of Montana. I only have 13 hours of class a week, which gives me plenty of free time to stay at home with your animals and go on many walks. I do not have class Friday-Sunday and am available for full-time care on these days as well as all evenings. I am also able to leave campus in between classes for walks. As I am not permitted to have animals at my current home, I am extremely eager to house-sit or drop in to your home to care for your pets. As a former veterinary receptionist, I can ensure a safe environment for you pets and am prepared to care for them in the case of a medical emergency. As a former professional dog walker, I am also eager to drive to your home to pick up your dog for a big mountain hike or a simple walk around the neighborhood.
About: I grew up in a family who loved all animals. I knew from a young age I wanted to work with animals. My resume includes work at animal shelters, wildlife rehabs, horse training facilities, doggy day care and veterinary clinics. I am well versed in administering medication and care for special needs animals. I have one dog, four cats, and one horse. Currently I am a stay at home mom to a 18 month old. Being a stay at home mom, I am very flexible. I am available Mondays through Saturday 9-12 and 3:30-7pm. I am not available on holidays. I own a two story, three bedroom house with large fenced in yard. My animals have everything they need including toys, cat trees, and lots of love. I take my dog on a walk everyday.
“August was amazing! My dogs loved him, even my old crabby dog. He was also very accommodating to the schedule we needed. I would trust August with my dogs anytime! So thankful to have found him!”


“WOW!! So impressed with Casey!!! He took great care of our pets and home. Sent us happy pics of the animals, tracked his walks. Kept us updated with notes that really communicated how our pets were behaving. Since we know our pets, we really knew he was spending time with them. And the animals were all happy and not stressed when we came home. The house was clean, he kept up with our litter boxes and also brought in mail or deliveries. He also brought in our recycle can without us asking him to. We would hire him again and again!”

“I will absolutely be reaching out to Luisa next time I need a pet sitter. They took time to meet in person beforehand, asked thoughtful questions on care, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I highly recommend Luisa as a pet sitter, you can be confident your pet is good hands.”

About: I've been petsitting for almost a decade! I've worked with all kinds of pets & personalities, and have experience giving oral medication! I'm also pet CPR certified! I'm a current full-time student at the University of Montana! Despite this, I'm available most mornings & evenings, with breaks between classes to give your critters some love. I'm also free most weekends & can give extra attention then! I make sure to leave things as I found them! I will clean up any messes from your pet while I'm there, and make sure the house is kept clean & safe for your pets.
“We had Ken for a 2 day house sit for our dog, Flash. In all of our years using Rover, we’ve rarely had a sitter who loves Flash as much (maybe more!) than we do. Ken even made a special late evening visit outside of those that were scheduled just to make sure Flash had a little extra love before bed. We came back to a tidy home and happy pooch. Will definitely have Ken back again!”

The median cost per visit for pet sitting in University District is $20

Kaycee is an absolute gem. She took great care of Brutus and it was such a pleasure to have her looking after my boy. She spoiled my best bud with some walks, snuggles, and lots of cheese snackies. I had not a single worry while he was in her care. Having that peace of mind is priceless

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Liv has been absolutely wonderful with my dogs, Finn and Carter. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about them. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re being checked on by someone so attentive and kind. She always sends thoughtful updates and photos, and I can tell my boys are comfortable and happy with her. Finn and Carter both took to her right away, which says a lot. I really appreciate how dependable and caring she’s been, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.
