“Yajaira does a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. She is prompt, responsive, and very responsible. The dogs clearly love her, and she treats them with care and patience. We had a change of plans, and she was totally flexible with our change. We will definitely use her again!”
“Nova did a fantastic job with my dog! Surpassed my expectations, and I will use her services again without hesitation. My dog was happy and relaxed when I returned home which spoke volumes.”
“Shana went above and beyond for my boys and I wholeheartedly recommend her! Professional, accountable, excellent communication, kind, and respectful. I can’t relay enough how appreciative I am of her attentiveness, and never worried for a moment knowing she was there. Thank you!”
“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our two elderly pups when we went to the Westside for a long weekend. She administered meds, fed them properly and followed their meal and walk schedule to a tee! We highly recommend her.”
“Julianna fit really well with what we thought our dog, Vixie, needed. Vixie has separation anxiety and Julianna was willing to go the extra mile to keep Vixie happy. Walks, treats, cuddles all worked. I would ask Julianna to sit again if the need arose. Thanks, Julianna.”
About: I have 7 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve had a Toy Poodle, Bentley since I was 12 and recently adopted a Sheepadoodle 2 years ago. My experience includes daily feeding, walking, grooming maintenance, bathing, administering basic medications when needed, playtime, potty routines, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. I'm comfortable caring for both small and large breeds and understand the importance of providing a safe, patient, and loving environment. I am currently a part-time receptionist, but my schedule is extremely flexible and I am willing to work around time obstacles if they come up! I have a fenced yard to keep your furry family safe. I also have two dogs; a Toy Poodle name Bentley and a Sheepadoodle named Ace. They are both extremely friendly and playful. I have a large crate for your dog as well if requested.
About: Having pets has been one of the best experiences of my life! I’ve cared for pets my whole life and love it. I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, grooming, administering medication, and providing companionship. I'm skilled in recognizing and responding to pet's needs and ensuring their safety and well-being! You can ensure your pets will be in good hands with me. I’m currently working part-time and am a full-time mom, so I have lots of time to be able to care for your pets. My schedule is pretty flexible so I’m sure we can find something to work around all your pet needs! You can ensure that your pets will be safe with me! I prioritize the safety and well-being of your pets above all else. I'm dedicated to creating a trustworthy and comfortable environment, ensuring your furry friends feel secure and loved while you're away.
About: I love animals, and I’m easy to work with! I grew up with small dogs, large dogs, cats, chickens. I know how to take care of your animal, and make sure they receive the care they need! I can be as present or as efficient as you need, if your animal is friendly or cuddly it will be hard for me to leave them! I will kindly adhere to any any instructions within your home, and with your animal. Medication, walks, special food requirements, cuddles, I am happy to do whatever is needed!
About: I grew up in a veterinary family. My dad was a large animal veterinarian and my mom a licensed veterinary technician, and I've worked in veterinary clinics myself. Caring for animals is what I know best. My strongest experience is with dogs and horses, and I'm especially fond of small dogs. I also have experience with cats and livestock. After a decade in hospitality, I know how to make guests feel safe and spoiled, and I bring that same attention to your animals. I follow your routines closely, notice the small signs that something is off, and send photo updates so you can relax while you're away. Fully flexible schedule: I’m available for weekdays, weekends, holidays, and short-notice bookings. I can work around your travel dates, early mornings, or late evenings. Safety first- I start every job with a walkthrough: where the leash, food, meds, and cleaning supplies are, which doors and gates need to stay closed, and any hazards for your pet. I keep dogs leashed or in secure areas, close gates behind me, and never leave a pet unattended in an unsafe space. I'm comfortable giving oral and injectable medications, and I follow dosing instructions and schedules exactly as your vet prescribes. Please leave written dosing instructions from your vet, and I'll confirm them with you at the meet-and-greet. I'll have your vet's number and an emergency plan before you leave, and my vet-family background means I know when something is "wait and watch" and when it's "call now." Trust- Before the first booking, I like to do a meet-and-greet so your pet and I can get comfortable. I treat your home with respect and leave it as tidy as I found it. You'll get a photo and quick note after every visit, and I'll tell you right away if anything seems off. Environment- Your pet is happiest in their own space with their own routine, so I stick to it: same feeding times, same walking route, same comfort items. For anxious or shy animals, I go slow and keep things calm. For horses and livestock, I check water, feed, fencing, and general conditions on every visit.
About: Fully fenced backyard. Safe neighborhood with wide sidewalks and plenty of neighborly love. Plenty of areas for doggos to safely relax, run, play and stay. Home during days and nights. Teenagers in the house provide extra hands for running, walking, feeding, and scratching. Best of all are daily trips to Badger Mountain Dog Park. Pets are always treated gently, with the utmost respect. Never would your pet by physically unsafe or harmed in my care. Your pets safety and happiness is my #1 priority.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Walla Walla
Kairi was absolutely amazing with our four dogs! She did such a fantastic job house-sitting and making sure all of our pups were happy, loved, and well cared for. We especially loved knowing she was taking the time to play games with them and keep them entertained while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% recommend Kairi to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and great with their pets. We would definitely book her again! 10/10!
Another great trip knowing my pets were in Michelle’s care! She takes such great care of them and handles any little things that come up around the house. Most importantly, my pets are so happy and comfortable being able to stay in their own home. I always feel completely confident and comfortable leaving them with Michelle and highly recommend her!
We had Autumn housesit with our boys again and she did an amazing job with them. She goes above and beyond taking care of them and she interacts with them all the time. Neither one of them are leash trained and she even tried walking them in the neighborhood to try to train them. They were a handful but she did try. She always leaves the house clean and picked up. She communicates regularly and sends pictures. We trust her with our boys and will be using her as often as we can.
Novavilla was great! We were so happy to be able to leave our 2 dogs and kitty safe at home while we visited family out of state. Nova is a great communicator and very punctual. She sent us daily updates with photos and always was open to ideas or tips to care for the pets. She spent a lot of time home with the animals which my pups are accustomed to. The house was clean when we returned and the pets were all safe and comfy! We hope to have Nova care for our babies again!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Walla Walla walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Walla Walla maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Walla Walla 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!

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 .
