“Jennifer was great! We have one very old, senile and mostly deaf dog. She tended to both dogs with great care. Our house was clean and the dogs were well cared for.”
“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.”
“This is the 2nd time we were able to book Shana and we have been SO pleased with her services. She is very dependable, conscientious and is excellent at communicating with us the whole time we were away. She also sends great pictures which are reassuring!!! :)”
“Vanessa arrived early and had a lot of patience and hugs for the puppy which gets very excited when she meets someone new. Would definitely recommend her for taking care of your fur baby.”
“Tifany made me feel comfortable in leaving my dogs in her care. She met with my dogs a couple times before the trip so they could get to know each other. My dogs are a bit picky about strangers and they warmed up to her quickly. During my trip, Tifany sent me daily updates and videos which reassured me that I had left them in good hands. She took wonderful care of my dogs while I was away and I would definitely use her services again. I highly recommend Tifany to anyone looking for a responsible, kind and caring individual to watch their pets while they are away.”
“Nathan T. was great with my 2 labs. Sent daily notes and pictures of my dogs which was very nice. I highly recommend him. Thank You Again for taking such great care of my doggies.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 12, it started with my sister's dog and I've slowly expanded to neighbors and friends loving pets! Im good with knowing their body language so I know how to react appropriately. Im used to long walks with dogs. I make sure the dog is happy. Im a part time photographer so I'm almost always home! I do school online so I won't be gone during the day. I have time for 2-3 walks a day, lots of play time. I have a fenced yard to let them out if it's an emergency or if they just want to run. I take dogs on 2-3 walks a day depending on what the dog wants. I let dogs sleep with me in my bed, I love cuddling on the couch as well. I love playing tug of war. If the dog gets messy while at my house I will give them a bath. If brushing is part of their routine I will gladly do that! I love playing with pets! They will have all my attention unless they want to be left alone.
“Kasey did a great job. We kept in contact often. I left instructions and Kasey did a great job with that. If she had a question, she asked. The biggest tell is that my animals were very happy and relaxed when we got back!!!”
“Yazmin did a wonderful job with all of our fur children. The house was kept up and was Fantastic being able to keep the in their own place with Yazmin keeping an eye on them. Great commutation . Thank you”
“Marikka was AMAZING!!! She sent pictures daily with updates on how the dogs were doing. She left the house clean and even got my dogs a toy! I would highly recommend her. Thanks Marikka!”
About: For over a decade now, I have cared for animals across the range- farm animals, cats, and dogs. All of my pets receive loads of attention and love, no matter the age. Currently I am a college student and an athlete, so my schedule has flexibility for pet care and house sitting during the summer. Aside from a few specific dates, I am available throughout the day and week for whatever services you need. In a clients home I can follow the pet’s normal schedule for walking and feeding, including administering medications. For house sitting, my schedule allows flexibility to visit often and look after plants and pets.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was young. As well as many farm animals. I just separated from the military and kind of wanting to do something that makes me happy for a while. Which is getting to love on all the fur babies. I can give medicine as I have been treating my pup now for a few years. I can also take them for walks if wanted. My roommate does have two smaller dogs that get along with others. Pretty free schedule can accommodate last minute bookings. As far as the weekly routine if I’m booked I will be with your pups as long as you’d want me there to entertain them. My roommate has two small dogs. They get along with other dogs but mostly just lay around. Would love to discuss house rules before hand, such as are they allowed on the furniture, what are feeding times, do they get crated at night? I would also like to do a meet and greet before as well, that way they have met me and im not just a new person to them while their people are gone.
“Merri Anne was very professional in manorisms, attention to our dog and appearance. Confirmation text day before, and of, as well. Very sattisfied with her service.”
“My cat and dog were so well taken care of during our weekend away with little to no cell service. I could tell they were so happy when we came home. Sara was great about checking in and making us feel at ease during our trip. Our dog can be a bit of a handful, but Sara was understanding of his needs and how to deal with his energy levels. We were gone during a heat wave, so she helped keep our dog cool our dog by hosing him off and giving him ice cubes so we wouldn't have to worry about him overheating. Would definitely book Sara again in an instant!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life. Soon enough I started getting pet sitting gigs from friends and family. From elderly dogs to 5 week old kittens I love and cherish every moment with them making sure they get all my love and attention. I’m currently waiting to hear back from jobs so I have all the time in the world currently. So if you need a pet sitter I’m available! I have two skittish cats in my home so I sadly cannot take care of pets in my home. When it comes to clients animals I make sure they are comfortable with me and give them the attention they want. I available for long walks and lot of play time outside.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Walla Walla
This was our first time having Nova watch our two dogs and she did a wonderful job! She was highly professional and attentive, aiming to understand the dogs' care instructions before we left and followed them carefully while we were away. She made us feel comfortable and confident that the dogs were in good hands. Our dogs (like most pets, I guess) have their quirks and unique personalities, and Nova did great adapting to both our fearful / slow to get comfortable with new people dog and our outgoing, energetic lab dog. She was communicative / responsive, and (as others have mentioned) takes great photos of the pups :) She left our house clean and tidy. We would definitely have Nova back anytime to watch the dogs!
This was another wonderful experience having Michelle care for my home and pets while I was away. It's such a comfort knowing they're in such great hands. My pets absolutely adore her, and when I get home they're happy to see me but calm and content, which tells me they've been well loved and cared for the entire time. Michelle keeps my house in excellent order, sends plenty of updates and photos, and is always responsive to any questions or requests I have while I'm away. She is reliable, professional, and genuinely cares about both my pets and my home. I can truly relax and enjoy my vacations knowing Michelle is there. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable house and pet sitter.
Autumn was so loving with our little guy. He has some anxiety, but she let him try out several new fun adventures and he had a great time. Autumn sent us photos and updates during her stay at our place. She was great at communicating and we would definitely have her watch our Finny again!
Cailin was excellent! Atlas and Comet loved her and I can tell they miss playing with her already. She took excellent care of our house and even helped us feed and give water to our small bird while we were away. I will definitely have her help us in the future again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Walla Walla
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Walla Walla on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 55 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Walla Walla. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Tip: 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
