“10000% would book again. Emilie was able to drop in on our pups last minute after our previous person cancelled literally an hour before. She sent the most adorable pictures and made me feel better that they were given love and care 💜”
“Tamee was awesome! She sent multiple pics and kept me updated as to Leia’s well being during the couple of days I was out of town. Easy to see she is a dog lover at heart! Will definitely call again.”
“Allison did several drop-in visits for me and took such good care of my boy, Bo. He has severe anxiety, so I am very particular about who I choose to watch him. Not only does Allison have a lot of experience working with animals, but she has also dedicated time to taking additional trainings to prepare her even more, including training about helping dogs with anxiety. I appreciate that so much. Bo was comfortable around her right away. She is calm and patient and caring. She always communicated promptly and sent photos of her visits. Even though I can get stressed knowing he is anxious, I trust Allison and was glad to have her with him. I hope to have the chance for her and Bo to spend more time together!”

“Linda helped us with a last-minute need for a visit with our girl, Davie. She was so great! She communicated before arriving, during her visit, and provided a great update after. She also took the best pictures ever! ♥️? We will definitely be contacting Linda for future needs!”
“Riley did such an amazing job with my boy Scooby doo! From taking him on walks when it wasn’t too hot, to the little thing like changing his bandanna (he LOVES it). She sent a good amount of photos each visit! I could tell how happy he was in each photo! Riley is super friendly and your dog will take a liking to her immediately like mine did! She’ll always reply to your messages in a timely manner, and if you have special care instructions she’ll execute them amazingly! I had her add some cheese into Scoobys bowl for me so he would eat while my husband and I were away, and I saw them in the photos she sent! I’ll definitely be recommending her to friends as well as book her again whenever I need! Super grateful for her and all the high fives for scooby snacks for my lil doo! I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter!”
“Adam is so amazing! He took such good care of my little fur balls and cleaned up after them. I can’t thank him enough, I highly recommend using him to watch your fur babies.”
About: From 200-lb big babies to 2-lb pocket pups, I’ve cared for them all! I have one sweet dog of my own and treat every pet like family. My schedule is open 24/7 for any dog either needing a place to stay, a sleepover buddy, or just needing some quality play time. I have plenty of time for walks, feedings, and good company. I provide a calm, clean, and pet friendly environment where dogs are always supervised and treated like family. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I respect your space and stick to your dog’s normal to keep them happy and stress-free. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.
About: Not only have I raised and kept animals all my life, including my own bundle of cats and a dog that I currently call family, I have also worked several years professionally caring for animals in day cares, boarding houses, and even get clinics. I am well versed in making sure animals get their medicine as they are required, and just ensuring the animals are happy and comfortable. I currently work evenings five days a week, starting at 5pm. But that means I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies during the day! I am not able to do any boarding (I currently house 4 cats and a dog), but I am very flexible with following any guidelines or requests! I am able to administer pills to both cats and dogs, and love to spend time either cuddling or playing with animals.
“She is very attentive and communicative. Sent lots of pictures and videos. Definitely cares about my cats and their wellbeing. Overall very happy. Thanks again!”
About: I grew up caring for both dogs and cats, I have a degree in Animal Sciences, and I have special experience training and working with large breeds and sporting dogs. My job schedule is flexible, so I can be available whenever your fur babies need some love! Available for overnights and long-term jobs as well. I work with your boundaries to make sure your pet feels safe and happy in their own space. Whether that's long walks, a tussle in the yard, or just a safe presence to be nearby, I meet you and your pet at your comfort level. I'm also happy to offer check-ins and pictures so can be confident your little angel is safe and happy!
“Michelle was awesome and very trustworthy. She provided detailed daily updates after her drop-in visits, and we came home to a happy kitty. I would definitely work with her again!”
About: Hello! I’ve been dogsitting/housesitting for at least 3 years now if not more. I adore meeting new doggos and learning about all of their little quirks. I am very committed to making sure I stick to the rules you have and I find communication very valuable. Of course, above all else I love having a connection with your fur baby and being able to be there for them whenever you need. For the next month or two I’ll likely be available most of the day every day. Currently unemployed but looking into other jobs and I start my last year of school in August. Again I’m more than happy to meet with you and discuss schedule if you’re interested! In the couple times I have taken care of other’s pets I always make sure they’re safe. Whatever the pet parent’s standard is, I follow. It’s important to keep a pattern with our pets so they don’t feel too uncomfortable with their owner being gone. I also provide frequent updates if the pet parent prefers.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have two dogs of my own. I’ve house sat and dog sat many times for friends and family, and I really enjoy spending time with dogs. I’m dependable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Since I have two dogs of my own, I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, care, and time to feel comfortable while you’re away! I am currently a student at Utah Tech, and have classes mainly on Monday and Wednesdays. I have lots of free time during the week to be able to help out with your dogs. I really enjoy being outside and getting exercise so I would love to be able to do that while helping out! I have lots of experience for training and taking care of dogs. I have nannied for a family the past two years, and have taken care of their dog. I am a strong communicator when it comes to making a plan and keeping a good relationship with the families I take care of.
About: I have hands on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic young animals to seniors who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable following structured feeding routines, administering medications, and providing attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I can care for a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, and beyond. I grew up on a farm surrounded by many different animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, responsibility, and understanding animal behavior. I focus on keeping pets calm, comfortable, and stress free by caring for them in their own home and maintaining the routines they’re used to. Reliability, cleanliness, and clear communication are priorities for me, and I treat every pet and home as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I attend school and run my main business primarily remotely, which gives me flexibility to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, medication needs, and overnight stays. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to be present, punctual, and attentive throughout the day and evening. I prioritize consistency and reliability so pets experience minimal disruption while their owners are away, and I’m comfortable adjusting my availability to meet each pet’s specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes or habitats, administer medications if needed, and give pets the appropriate level of attention and companionship based on their personality. I’m respectful of each home and keep the space clean and secure while I’m there. For overnight stays, I make sure pets feel safe and settled, especially in the evenings and mornings when routines matter most. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.

Desiree is a super dog walker! She walked my 50+ lb Bernedoddle, Odie for the past few months while I recovered from hip surgery.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 .
