“Angela did a great job with our cat Stevie. Knowing Angela was dropping in for several days put my family at ease during our vacation. She even brought our mail inside and kept everything clean. Thank you Angela!”

“Cheryl is the cat whisperer. We have two rescue kitties that hide from everyone. One is much worse than the other as she suffered a scary past before trapped. Cheryl immediately connected with our braver one and the one that hides actually came out to peek at her. This may not sound like a lot to many but this is HUGE for these two. She kept us informed and sent photos and we were pleased. We will definitely use Cheryl again next time we need help.”

About: I have been working with people's furry family members on and off for about 10 years now. Aside from working in doggy daycare and boarding, I've cared for animals of friends and family throughout my life. Keeping animals well taken care of and well enriched is my specialty. I am also a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College. I am available for sitting, drop-ins, walks and training sessions. Please reach out so we can make your schedule work! Weekends or weekdays are always manageable. I have pet sat and worked in boarding/daycare facilities for years. There is almost no situation I couldn't accommodate. Whether it be special preferences you might have for your furry buddy or necessities like administering important medication, there is almost no situation I wouldn't be happy to oblige when taking care of your pet.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my whole life. They are a huge part of the family. I also believe dogs need a healthy outlet of stimulation, play and exercise every day! I'm here to help when you aren't able. I am a Mom of 3, all of which are in school during the day. I am looking to stay active, make some extra money and spend time with animals. I walk my dog daily and we both look forward to it so much. P.s. her name is Lulu. She's a chocolate lab. It is such an important part of our day.

About: As a Humane Society volunteer for the past 4 years, I have experience with all dogs big and small, wild and calm. There's no doggo that I can't handle. I also have a 12 year old Staffy of my own. I'm primarily available on weekends when I'm not volunteering. But I'm happy to make time during the week if needed. My goal is to get your animals outdoors whenever you're too busy or during the Winter when the weather isn't so forgiving. I make sure to pack treats, dogs water bottles and waste bags during walks. For travel, my car is setup with a comfy and secure dog carrier.

As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. You want someone you can trust—not only to make sure they’re fed and cared for, but to give them the same love, attention, and patience they receive at home. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a potty break, some playtime, dinner and cuddles, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’m here to help! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m especially passionate about giving pets lots of attention and making sure they never feel overlooked. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. 🐶🐱📸 A little about my care: 🐾 Reliable and responsible ❤️ Patient and genuinely animal-loving 🚶‍♀️ Happy to provide walks and exercise 🍽️ Feeding, fresh water, potty breaks & routine care 🎾 Playtime, attention and plenty of affection 📸 Regular updates and pictures 🏡 Respectful of your instructions My goal is for your pets to feel like they’re getting a little vacation of their own while you’re away! I’ll treat them like family and do everything I can to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pets. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family members! 🐾 I do work, but my hours are short, so we have plenty of time for your dog! We also have two very friendly and wonderful dogs of our own, a Golden Retriever named Buddy and a German Pointer named Rusty. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of our own to keep your baby company. Your dogs will be well taken care of and well loved! It is important that your dog is crate trained for during my working hours; however, summer months are different.

About: I’m a dog daycare attendant as my day job and I’m a MSU Vet Tech student who’s on a gap year and looking to work with animals in the meantime! Animals are my passion and I strive to give them the best care daily :) I work as a dog daycare attendant during the evenings but I’m open anytime before noon for walks or playtime. Knowing kids are going back to school soon and parents will be working, I hope to help out with the morning chaos :) As someone looking to go into the veterinary field your pets care is my utmost priority. I consistently try my best to be as attentive as I can to the animals I work with to prevent any possible incidents from occurring. I understand your pet is part of your family and I wouldn’t treat them as any less :)

About: I have always deeply loved animals and have grown up with and taken care of many cats and dogs throughout the years. Although I do not currently have my own pet, I grew up with a yorkie and a Shiba Inu, and lived with cats all throughout college. Whether it be going for a walk, playing, or keeping up with their routine, I’m committed to providing dependable care for your pets! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, low energy, and I am more than happy to provide care tailored to your pets individual needs and personality. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I will do my best to give you piece of mind with updates along the way! I happy to answer any further questions you may have about my schedule/availability, and the care I will be able to provide. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets and making sure they received plenty of love and care! I currently work a full-time job, with Tuesdays and Sundays fully available. Otherwise, I normally work early mornings and am home by 3pm. My work schedule can often be pretty flexible, so please don’t hesitate to ask 😊 I provide pet care by making sure each pet feels safe and comfortable while sticking to their usual routines as closely as possible. I pay attention to their bathroom and feeding schedules, and also their individual personality. I understand that not all pets will need the same care, and I am determined to provide the specific care that your pet needs!

About: I am a true animal lover! I’ve had pets since I was little that I’ve helped take care of and have looked after pets for my family and friends. Having pets of my own that I love and care deeply for gives me a deeper understanding when it comes to someone else’s. Walks, play time, potty breaks or time spent loving on your furry friend is my helping goal. I have an open and flexible schedule, can care for your pets while away at work. Walks to tire them out, outdoor potty breaks, or playtime inside / out to ensure they aren’t bored or restless while you’re away. I’m open to walking any size dog however long needed and ensuring they’re properly cared for after the fact. I’m comfortable leashing and harnessing, as well as recognizing when a dog is ready to relax.

About: Leaving your fur baby with someone else can feel like a BIG deal. You want to know they're safe, loved, and with someone who can handle them in all aspects. That's exactly what I'm here for! I am new to the Rover community, however, I’ve been sitting and caring for dogs and cats for the past 6 years; mostly family, friends and through word of mouth. I’ve been working to give dogs/cats the attention and care they deserve while their people are away! I love working with the playful dogs who need more than just a quick walk around the block. And I also LOVE cats with my entire being, no matter the personality! I'm comfortable handling big personalities and lots of energy. I have one cat named Cozy. He is 6 years old and my entire world. If you're looking for someone who will treat your fur baby like one of their own, I'd LOVE to meet you both! I am currently self-employed and spend most of my time caring for mine as well as others’ fur babies until their people get back home. I have a very friendly cat in my home who is more than welcome to share the space with a furry friend. We are in a very safe apartment that is pet-friendly with plenty of outdoor space for walks and fun activities!

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was younger and I am a huge dog person! My family has always had dogs, we have two mastiffs right now, and I plan to have dogs for the rest of my life. I have been a sitter for many neighbors and extended family, and I worked at a dog boarder/daycare for three years. I’m currently working full time and am a full time grad student. I still regularly take care of others pets as needed. I am free during weekends. During the week, I can do morning, evening and night. I make sure they are fed, comfortable, and of course receiving attention. I give them plenty of time outside and pay attention to their needs. I also am able to break up a dog fight and check for any injuries.

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!

Dawn is the best. Took great pictures of our fur balls. Played with them while she was here to clean litter, and changed water. She also had treats for them. And the cats seems to like her, which makes things easy when we are gone.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Washington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Washington is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,996 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Washington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Washington. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
