“Absolutely wonderful!! She did a great job taking care of our pups and it was amazing not having to leave the dogs while traveling. Even though they are low maintenance, she did an awesome job giving the dogs lots of love and care!”
“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.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs through personal pet-sitting and have developed a strong understanding of their daily needs, routines, and behaviors. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in giving pets the same care and attention I would give my own! As an at-home college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins while ensuring pets receive all of my attention and affection. I can happily care for your furry companions any day of the week, Saturdays, and Sundays as well with plenty of room for sleepovers and weekly stays! I understand how important it is to trust somebody else with your pet, and I like to take that responsibility very seriously. I make sure to pay close attention to routines, behavior, and special instructions given to me by owners to ensure the best possible care. Communication is crucial so I enjoy sending updates by phone to clients so they know their pets are happy and well cared for. When going outside, dogs will be leashed for walks and supervised at all times!
About: I have a long long history with dogs. I have had pitbulls all my life and I will forever hold a place for them in my heart! I love all dogs truly. I am open to cats if they are friendly 😅! I do work a 9am-4pm work shift and don’t get home usually until 4:45pm. I am open to drop ins and anything else that helps your travel time truly! I can do frequent walks as soon as I wake up, before I leave for work and any time after I am home from work. Weekends I am usually freed up with a lot of time so I don’t mind walks or anything needed for your pet☺️. I live in an apartment so frequent walks is something i’m completely okay with. I would say if you have pets that don’t work well with prolonged times not using the bathroom I wouldn’t be a great fit just do to my day to day work schedule. Weekends are completely free! I’m comfortable giving medicine on a schedule, long walks or baths or anything your pet may need so you can be worry free! I do have a son that has been around big and small dogs and i’m comfortable training or correcting if needed! Just know any dog or cat is in great hands with me☺️❤️!
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs. I enjoy walking and playing with them! Personally, I grew up with a black lab and golden retriever! Looking forward to meeting your dog! I’m available on weekends and evenings! Currently completing clinical rotations at the UC hospital system, and I’d be happy to meet you and your pet to provide attentive, loving care. I love to take pets on walks and enjoy playing with them. I’m happy to meet you at your place or at a nearby park.
About: As a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve spent years providing loving care to various breeds. As a trusted adult by family and friends, I prioritize each dog’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do my best and more to create a nurturing environment where pets thrive. Bring a dog caregiver perfectly complements my part time job by allowing me to structure my day around both responsibilities. This role not only offers companionship but also ensures I remain active and engaged throughout the day. As a dog caregiver, I provide a personalized care in both my home and client’s homes. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, exercising, and bathroom breaks to ensure each dog feels secure. In clients homes, I follow their specific guidelines while bringing my own warmth and attention. I focus on keeping their pets comfortable, engaging them in activities, and maintaining a clean environment.
“Ashley did a fantastic job of stopping in to take care of my kittens while I was out of town. They really enjoyed her company and I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”
“Madeline was absolutely wonderful! She did daily drop in visits and took amazing care of my cat while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about my cat’s well being. I loved getting updates and knowing my cat was in such good hands. It gave me total peace of mind while I was gone. I came home to a happy, well cared for cat, which says everything. I would 100% recommend Madeline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!!! :-)”
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
About: I have pet sit for my neighbor’s cats multiple times. I have walked my other neighbor’s dog. I volunteered at Premier Pet Supply in middle school. I have owned fish, hamsters, and lizards, but have always wanted a dog or cat. I am a runner and am very active outside, so I will make sure your dog is well in shape. I am currently cleaning houses part time, but I have full availability on most weekends (Friday through Sunday) and weekdays after 4pm. Some days I can work sooner it just depends on my schedule. I keep on eye on my pets and all times to make sure they stay out of trouble while making sure they have the freedom to play and be themselves.
“Lindsay was great to with! She made sure all of the weirdness of our three ladies was catered to. We were especially nervous about the skittish one and the one we’ve only had for two months but Lindsay eased our minds with updates and pictures. Thank you so much Lindsay for taking care of the ladies!”
“We are overjoyed with our choice to go with Samantha to care for our pups as we went out of town. She was kind, professional, and made me feel at ease leaving them with someone else to care for them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely be calling her up the next time we are in need! 11 out of 10.”
“Gabriela is one of the best and most reliable Rovers I’ve ever had. She is always responsive and can take handle last minute changes in schedule. I appreciate her so much, and always takes the best photos of my pup :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs both large and small for 10 years for friends and family, both in their home and my own. Willing to walk, play, feed, water, administer basic medications or just provide companionship. Trustworthy, compassionate and reliable. I currently work Monday to Friday but have open availability all day on weekends as well as weekdays after 6pm. I have my own dog and cat as well. I do live in an apartment so would be limited to one dog in my home. I have a 24 pound Cavachon who is friendly with all dogs. I walk my dog multiple times a day and would give yours the same care. I also have a medium kennel if your dog requires that for short absences if that is an option. At a clients home I can play with the pet in a fenced yard or offer 30-60 minute walks multiple times a day. Will feed, play, clean up after pottying, and will give your pet plenty of love and pets!!
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages and special needs for 10+ years. The largest dog I’ve cared for in their home was a great wolf hound weighing 165 lbs. he was the biggest baby in the world! I have a 3 year old golden retriever who loves everyone and every dog. I watch a golden retriever who is 8 and a golden doodle who is 1 continuously throughout the year. Looking to add more fur baby dates to calendar for my golden who loves new friends! I’m a nanny and my schedule changes daily but im able to leave to come home whenever needed. Letting the dogs out is no concern :) experienced with all breeds and sizes but dog friendly/ people friendly is a must. 1 dog home- an almost 3 year old golden retriever who loves everyone and every dog. When she isn’t at day camp at pets mart she’s playing with the neighbors dogs. Having doggie friends daily is what she would love. Watching dogs while the owners are on trips is what we are used to. 5-10 days at a time.
About: Taking care of your pet is my passion. I can teach your dog some new tricks! I’ve been trained to tell when a dog is overheating, what to do during seizures and how to give your pets their medications. Because of the volume of bookings I’m currently only accepting long term stays. Has to be a minimum of 3 days. My schedule is wide open so every minute will be spend making sure your best friend gets the proper care it needs. I’m also available to pick pets up to and from vet visits. I will be there for your animal day or night. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Rover is my full time job so I have open availability! Your pet will have my full attention and love. Plenty of time for cuddles. At the moment I do not offer daycare, however if I stay in your home, I always make sure I leave it how I found it.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Washington
Kelly was absolutely wonderful with Mocha💕 She kept me updated throughout every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell that she genuinely cared about Mocha and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She was reliable, communicative, and very sweet with my little girl. I would absolutely book with Kelly again for future trips or whenever I need someone to care for Mocha. Thank you so much for everything! 🥰🐾
Hannah did an awesome job taking care of my dogs while I was away! I could tell they were really well taken care of and got plenty of attention, which made it so much easier for me to relax and not worry about them. She was very dependable, kept everything taken care of, and treated my dogs like they were her own. I was also so impressed when I got home because my house was absolutely spotless! Everything was clean, neat, and exactly as I had left it. It’s not easy finding someone you completely trust with both your pets and your home, and I would absolutely have Hannah take care of them again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and great with animals. She definitely deserves 5 stars!
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.

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.
