About: I’ve had pets in the home my entire life. From dogs,cats,reptiles,chickens,birds,fish,etc I care for pets as though they were my own. I’ve done in home and clients home pet care. I love sending Moms & Dads pictures of their fur baby having fun in my care. It's important your baby is happy & comfortable. While giving great care, it gives you peace of mind your baby is in the best care until you return. I work part time(2 days a week)and have a flexible schedule. Love being with furry friends. They give life so much joy. Love taking pictures to send to Mom and Dad on my visits. Our fur babies are our family & having someone who really cares about your pet makes a huge difference. I love to take walks & Hike on local trails & if your baby is up for it, I'm happy to take them along. Follow exactly what owner does for their pet. Be patient with furry friends. Always keep a close eye on pets. Make sure their schedule and routines are as close to Mom and Dads as possible to help keep pet comfortable and less stressed

“I have a senior dog and I have a cat that hides every time Tammie comes to my house. Which is, uh, fine, because the cat always hides. However, she is so wonderful with my senior dog. She lets him out as many times as he asks. She makes sure that he is OK outside. She never lets him be alone. Uh, she's always checking his food and. Is water. She's also always checking the food in the water for my cat that hides all the time. She is a wonderful caregiver. Compassionate. Absolutely thorough. Wonderful. With my dog. I can't tell you more wonderful things about her because she is fantastic.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and was always a person that friends and family could count on to help if they needed a dog sitter. I know how to give proper care to dogs of any kind and I am a person that will always make sure they are loved and respected. I currently have completely open availability 7 days a week. I can do morning and evening walks/drop-in visits with your dogs. I do not offer overnight care in your homes, but I do offer in mine. I do offer care in my home varying between daily drop offs or overnight for vacations/any other reasons. I have a large yard that they can run around in and play in. I also have a 7 year old female boston terrier, so they must be good with other dogs. I can most definitely take care of the babies in their homes as well and make sure to follow the proper protocols and rules that are applied from the owners.

About: I grew up in the countryside so i have always been around many animals since my childhood years. I've taken care of dogs and cats of many breeds , I grew up in DR so I had a dog whom gave birth 3 times within the same year and I delivered 9 pups each time. I took care and nurtured all of the pups prior to finding them a new home. I also always took care of two dogs my godfathers sisters had whenever she would travel to Florida they would stay with me. I do it because I love animals and rather make sure their in good care than looked at by someone who’s careless. I work at the wind creek , my free days are Sunday through Tuesday and I am available any time. Wednesday through Thursday from 7-5pm are my working hours. However on these days Between 6pm-10pm I can be available. If needed I can also stay the night , Feeding will be done at 5:45am with a quick potty break prior to me leaving at 6:30am. Furry friends can run free at home and outside , i like taking them on walks and playing with them where with my CoCo i give her treats as she does the things I ask of her like Sit , Stay Still , my dog loves these games. This is a safe space we also have a camera outside monitoring everything. At a clients home I always follow their instructions, usually most clients would leave a small instruction pamphlet for me which I always follow.

“Thalia accepted my reservation right before we had to leave for a trip and my cat needed medication to be given 2x a day. Thalia took care of it no problem, sent me photos where I could see how the eye was looking and made me feel at ease. My cat was so happy, healthy and well cared for. I will definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend”

About: Over the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family, not as a business, but as a way to support them during vacations, work trips, or emergencies. It’s something I’ve always done out of love and a genuine desire to help. My wife also grew up having different pets, including cats, dogs, and other small animals. Together, we share a strong bond with animals and a commitment to provide them with comfort, safety, and affection. I work 100% from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care to the pets I look after. Your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They’ll never feel alone or ignored. We live in a comfortable, pet-friendly townhouse where your pet will be treated like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture and free to roam throughout the house. There are no restrictions on movement inside, so they can relax and settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. While we don’t have a backyard, we make sure dogs get regular outdoor time with safe, on-leash walks around our quiet, secure complex and the surrounding neighborhood. We never allow pets off-leash while outside, under any circumstances, to ensure their safety at all times.

About: Need a summer or holiday break? Don't worry, I've got you covered. I love dogs, and dogs love me. I have been a proud pet owner for nearly 20 years, and have had the pleasure of caring for several dogs on this site - each with its own personality. I have a Westie, who loves playing with other dogs - big or small. I will be gentle but firm with your pet. Your dog will get a daily walk on the Delaware Canal, a nearby quiet country road, or for a treat, the dog park. I also have a fenced-in outdoor area where he or she can wander. I can play ball with your dog or tug-o-war. Your dog can wander freely in my house and can sleep where he or she feels comfortable. I do work 8 to 4 weekdays but have all federal and state holidays off. My uncle is here to supervise when I am at work. I have a fenced-in side yard for dogs to exercise and get fresh air. Pets will be monitored at all times to ensure their safety

About: Having grown up in the Lehigh Valley with an epileptic dog and two cats - one with diabetes - I’ve become a confident, reliable pet caretaker for friends, family, coworkers, and regulars. They can count on me to walk, feed, play with, and provide medication to their dogs and cats across age ranges. I have a particular familiarity with senior pets, but as someone with an active lifestyle, I have no problem going for long walks or playing for extended periods of time. Plus, I’m super familiar with the area and have reliable transportation. I can get to your pet no problem and even take them out on a new trail! I’m an actress working in the local and regional theatres in the area, which means my schedule leaves plenty of time to care for your pets. I always stick to house guidelines when I enter/stay at a client’s home to care for their pet. Your pet and your home are in my care, so I keep things clean, orderly, and never invite guests over unchecked. Need me to bring in the mail or a package? No problem! Not to mention, I’ll look after your pet like they’re my own — that means the basics, plus quality time, pets, easy grooming, playtime.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Washington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Washington is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $34 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 October 2026, there are 3,012 sitters on Rover offering Dog 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.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
