“Adina is super kind, dependable and attentive. A perfect match for our cat Lupe! Luckily she was available to book several drop-in visits with him. Thanks to her we were not concerned at all about the well being of Lupe while we were away, because she never left us hanging! We came home to a happy, loving kitty. Adina will definitely be on the top of our list whenever we might need someone to take care of Lupe in the future!”

“Lindsey was wonderful! Did she take care of my sometimes ornery cat, but she even washed the food dishes each day. It's always talk to trust a stranger to watch your pet but I would have no problem with Lindsey taking care of my cat Tano!”


About: I have taken care of my neighbors’ animals since I was nine years old. I often take care of their dogs for several days at a time while they’re away. I love taking care of animals and making them feel safe and cared for, despite their parents not being home. I have work 8-5 every weekday, but I can pet-sit afterwards and stop by during my lunch break! My weekends are completely free, so I can spend the whole day with your pet if they have more frequent needs. I have had experience from young puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has differing needs, so I will do my best to accommodate to everything that will make your pet feel safe.
About: I’ve had experience with dogs and cats, as I have owned both. I used to have a Siberian husky who I was used to walking everyday, and I am looking to get back into walking a dog. I have cared for friends and neighbors cats while they are on vacation. I currently work full time during the day but am looking forward to summer nights when I can walk after work. I am free at any time on Wednesdays. I am looking to start with just dog walking and drop in visits with cats to see how that goes. Unfortunately with my work schedule I don’t think I could care for someone’s dog while they are away.

About: I’ve always been in love with animals and have grown up surrounded by pets, caring for a bunch of my own over the years. I’ve gained hands on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pups with special needs. I focus on creating a routine that keeps each dog happy, healthy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Walks, playtime, and plenty of attention are always part of the day, and I make sure to communicate regularly so you feel confident your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is simple: provide dependable, loving care that gives both you and your dog peace of mind. Pet care is a regular part of my day. I make time for walks, feeding, play, and attention, and I’m flexible to fit each pet’s needs into my schedule. I keep pets safe and comfortable, following their routine and providing supervision, care, and attention in a calm environment whether that be my home or yours!
“Sarah was exceptional! Her communication from minute one was amazing! She was friendly, professional and went above and beyond expectations! I will definitely be calling her in the future!”

About: I have had a dog at every stage of my life, some easier and some more crazy however I always took my time to care for them and create an exciting life for them always. I do have a busy schedule however I am available to stay at homes any night of the week and can usually always find time to take pets for walks even around my schedule. If staying at your home I will be sure to follow any requests you ask that we talk over before the sitting begins. I’ll also clean any and all messes I might create and if the pet causes any messes as well.
About: Hello there! I’ve watched many of my friends and family’s dogs numerous times for one week, two weeks, sometimes three weeks or longer, overnight and during the day. I am very attentive and caring with pets. I absolutely love dogs! I love playing with dogs, walking dogs, giving them all the love they deserve! I currently have a very open schedule to assist you with your dogs so they receive the best care ever! I’m looking forward to giving your amazing dogs the best care ever! I keep my house very clean and free of harmful objects that dogs can get into and cause potential harm to them. I always make sure my dogs are let out frequently enough to go to the bathroom and given plenty of time outside, I will always make sure they have plenty of water to drink, always enough food to eat and of course plenty of dog treats and all the play time!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have four cats, two dogs, and two rabbits, so I’m used to taking care of multiple pets with different needs and personalities. One of my dogs is very old and has become blind and deaf, which has taught me a lot about patience, paying attention to details, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for him has given me experience working with animals that need a little extra support and attention. I also volunteered at a horse rescue and rehabilitation facility for a year, where I helped with feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, and caring for horses. Working with horses taught me how to safely handle large animals, stay calm under pressure, and understand animal behavior. It gave me a lot of confidence and responsibility that I still use when caring for pets today. Besides my own animals, I’ve helped care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, basic medications, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m a 19-year-old college student currently on summer break and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I feel the same way about my own. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. ❤️ As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability outside of my part-time job. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent, quality care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, clean up after pets, ensure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and carefully follow any special instructions. I also treat each home with respect and keep pet owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I have been dog sitting and walking for 20 years. I have stayed over nights while families were out of town. I made sure puppies/ dogs were feed upon owners instructions of how many times a day, walking and playing, and if any medication has to be given. I am a dog owner myself so I know how important our furry friends are. I'm flexiable and if you need me to come over and walk your dog while at work maybe give it a little attention or watch your dog while out of town or just to do a check up I am the right person. My love for animals is out of this world. Give me a chance You won't be disappointed! Thank you
“Sarah has been dropping in during the work week for our older dog for several months now. Always so great with her, plays outside, and gives her a much needed break to the workday. Would 100% recommend, she's wonderful with our pup!”

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to dog sit, and I can honestly say it’s brought so much joy into my life. It all began with a lovable Rottweiler from across the street, and that experience ignited my passion for caring for dogs. There's nothing quite like the bond that forms when I spend time with them—playing, cuddling, and just being there for them. Each dog has its own unique personality, and I love nurturing that connection. I’ve had the pleasure of watching pups for friends and folks I’ve met through work, and each one has left a pawprint on my heart. Caring for these furry companions makes me feel so fulfilled and truly happy! I’m currently going to school at GVSU and looking for something extra to do to help pay for tuition while enjoying company of furry friends. My shifts at work typically only last 4 hours. Therefore I have a very flexible schedule! I care for pets by giving them love, and taking care of them as if they were my own while their owners are away. I also enjoy walks :)
About: I am puppy school certified and i have over 15 years of senior dog experience and everything in between. I would love to spend some time taking care of dogs I am a healthcare worker currently working monday-wednesday. I have a lot of spare time on my off days and would love to play with pups in my spare time! I had to unexpectedly put down my dog of 17 years and I don’t have the heart to get another one, but miss playing with pups in my spare time. I would make sure to keep your place just as a i found it and make certain the animals are taken care for and loved in my presence
About: I have a dog of my own that I’ve been caring for 6 years, i take directions well and understand that every animal has specific needs and care that i will be careful of to give them the best time with me. I’m currently in college and have a ton of time on my hands as i do online classes. My availability is pretty flexible and open, if not i will always let you know as early as i can. I’m not as strict with my own dog, i give them a wide variety of food for her diet instead of just dog food to help her stay healthy. I have cared for a friend’s dog and cat as well, where their dog needed frequent diaper changes and the cat needed insulin shots after they eat to treat their diabetes, i had also helped watch over a relative’s dog when they were a few months old for a night and helped with cleaning and walks.
About: I've taken care of dogs everywhere from letting them out, spending time with them so they're not alone, picking up their poop, and everything in between for years. I've had multiple clients for 5+ years and am still their primary caregiver for all basic dog needs. I have a mini golden doodle of my own that I love with all my heart. I promise to do everything just the way you want it whenever you need it. I'm always here whenever you need! I take care of 3 dogs for 2 separate families every day constantly. I have college classes but I make sure I can always get to them whenever I need to be there. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I will not skip out on you if I say I'll be there. I love dogs and will always find the time to help assist whenever you need. In my home, I don't have a fence, but I've trained my 6 year old dog where he can and cannot go. If I were taking care of your dog, I would listen to whatever instruction you give me when letting your dog out to play or use the bathroom. I will not disobey the instructions and will do exactly as I'm asked to give the best care for your dog.

About: I’m majoring in business and I own a long haired chihuahua. I’ve cared for neighbor’s and family’s dogs in the past by walking and dog sitting. I’m on a very flexible schedule, so most times during week days I will be able to walk your dog! I’m excited to take them on walks :) For dog walking, I like to make sure we walk in areas with sidewalks that are safe. I’d bring water to keep your dog hydrated, especially if it is warm out!
About: I have been a foster volunteer for a dog rescue since 2020. I have fostered 3 dogs of various sizes for a week to a month. I’ve taken dogs out for day trips to go for walks and ice cream to give them breaks from cages for the rescue when not fostering. I also had a dog walking business when I was a kid and would walk my neighbors dogs around the block. I have two cats of my own who have gotten along with all of the dogs that were in my home. My 6 year old daughter loves and respects all animals in our home and even likes to help walk, feed and play with all of them. I work from home and am home all day to have the ability to take dogs outside or go for walks throughout the day. I have shared courtyards where your leashes dog can walk, do their business and a fenced tennis court I sometimes let the dogs run around in. I have kennels for large and small dogs if you request. I usually don’t use kennels unless it’s requested. I have a large layout with stairs for your pet to explore and relax.

Sarah is new to our dog, Bailey, today. Having only first met Sarah, we are impressed. She asked questions demonstrating experience with caring for animals and particularly job. We are comfortable after meeting with a Drop-In visit, that we can rely on Sarah for her soon visit for the next appointment.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Washington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Washington 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Washington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
