“Jessica did great with our two cats! She had no hesitation at all in dealing with an old cranky kitty and having to administer a med. Appreciated all the communication and extra help like bringing trash cans in and watering plants!”
“Maria was very attentive and caring with the dogs. She went out of her way to help the dogs feel loved while I was away. I would highly recommend her to watch over anyone’s extended pet family, she truly cares and treats every pet as her own.”
About: I am an experienced pet owner, with a lifelong love of all animals: especially dogs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur-babies, and I have a lot of experience with a wide range of ages, needs and puppy personalities. I am an avid runner and naturist and love taking dogs on the myriad trails and walks surrounding our area. Your dog will get plenty of exercise and play time if they want it, or could be a total lounge and snuggle-bug in the calm indoors. I'm happy to tailor my care to your dog's needs and routine. I am happy to keep you updated on how your pet's stay is going, ready to send those glamor shots your way. I'm also adept at getting even the most stubborn of pups to take their medications without fuss. We can't wait to meet you and your four-legged bestie! I work from home and my wife has weekends, holidays and Summers off. Between us, we have a lot of time, energy and snuggles to devote to your pup. Our dogs thrive on a set routine for feeding, potty breaks and outdoor adventures, so your friend will be in good company. We have two lovable hounds that enjoy making new friends and we have a secure, fenced yard. My schedule allows for frequent check-ins or stays at your place, should you prefer house-sitting.
About: Personal experience with wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and many totally normal animals that rover won’t allow me to reference in my experience. Willing and able to watch and care for large and small animals. Rates vary depending on number of animals and species. I currently stay at home and my children and grown, allowing me flexibility and availability to care for animals round the clock, meeting difficult medication schedules or potty breaks. I offer services in clients homes only and will provide food and water on schedule, dishwashing for pet dishes as needed, regular dog walking/poop removal, litter box cleaning, medication administration as needed, brushing and playtime. I am also able to provide care for farm and exotic animals with specific care instructions.
About: I’ve been dedicated to dogs for most of my life. My current best friend, Arty was a stray and then was at shelters for a long time before I adopted him. He had issues, but I didn’t give up on him. I took him to manners class and used marker training to work through his issues. He is now a well-balanced boy. He loves to pose for pictures, for treats, of course. I would love to care for your pet when you’re away, in your home or mine if your pet is a good fit with Arty. I am a fit and active retiree. I go for long walks every morning and work out at the gym four days a week. The rest of my days are dedicated to my dog and gardening. I have a large fenced yard that is perfect for dogs to play and do zoomies. I have a large dog door and my house is dog friendly, with dog beds and throw rugs on a hardwood floor. I have a rear gate in my car and a dog hammock on the middle seat.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs of various ages, breeds, and personalities. I've cared for senior pets with health conditions and high-energy puppies. I love to take dogs on walks and spend time with them outside. I make sure to spend lots of my time with the pets that I am caring for so that they have time to play and be around someone instead of being lonely. I am currently working part-time during the week and have open weekends. This is perfect if you need a weekend sitter or someone to be around during the week! I have lots of time during the week to take pets on walks, let them outside, and feed them. I will be caring for pets inside your home where they are comfortable. I can spend as much (or as little) time inside your home as you wish.
“Kaiea was amazing! We are so happy with the care our cat got and she was able to help us out of a pinch with needing fans turned on and off for him, and adding a last-minute visit on when the temperatures changed on the day we were returning home. We will absolutely be requesting her to watch Archie again in the future! Thank you, Kaiea!”
“Melissa was a fantastic sitter for our kitty while we were away for a few days. She was so attentive and communicated often, and we would absolutely have her again!”
“Nicole provided great communication, professionalism and warmth. She provided us with peace of mind that our diabetic cat would get the care he needs while we were out of town. She will absolutely be a crucial part of our pet-care for all future needs!”
“Zahara did great with my kitten Earl Grey! He’s pretty nosy and active and she did a perfect job keeping him entertained and happy. We compromised well on his feeding schedule and her work schedule too. Earl LOVED having her he was always snuggly, playful, and happy in the photos!”
“So greatful for Melissa's help taking care of my cat Luna. At the time of my trip, Luna was recovering from a wound that needed special care. Melissa was not only able to manage her care and monitor progress, but also somehow managed to get my extremely shy cat to warm up to her, despite all the meds and special care routine. When I got back Luna was in tip-top shape and a lot less mad at me for leaving than she usually is. Melissa will definitely be my first call next time I need to travel.”
About: I have dog sat multiple times for family friends, usually 3 dogs at a time, no problem. The owners always return to their dogs being happy and healthy. I am self employed now so I am very flexible and will be available pretty much all day to take care of your fur babies. I am very flexible caring for your animals in whatever way you’re most comfortable with and whatever ways work well for your fur baby.
“Amazing as always! She’s super responsive, reliable, and the only person I trust with my babies. My dogs absolutely love her, and I always have peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands! ❤️”
“Kaeleigh was absolutely amazing with my boys. She spoiled them with love, treats and zoomies in the yard. She was dependable, communicated well and went over and beyond for just a drop in. I highly recommend using Kaeleigh.”

About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and grew up helping care for pets, so I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and giving each pet the patience and attention they need. Now that my husband and I have bought our first home, I’m excited to fill it with wagging tails and happy paws. I work from home on East Coast hours, so my afternoons are wide open for exercise, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m attentive, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and right at home. Working from home gives me the flexibility to fit my day around your pet’s routine.

Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. In my home, they’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, a quiet, comfortable environment, and a walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks.
“Brittany took such good care our cats of Ethel and Max while we were away that we really couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Our cats need medication, and Brittany made sure they were comfortable and cared for and kept us at ease while we were away. I would highly recommend her :)”
About: As a new Rover sitter, I look forward to meeting new families and caring for their pets. I've consistently cared for dogs & cats for neighbors and friends over the last 8 years and have extensive experience with various kinds of animals. I treat pets as family and have experience with drop- in visits, dog walking, and overnight stays- always providing care with kindness and attention. I connect well with all pets, from senior animals needing tender care to energetic puppies. I'm communicative, detail-oriented, and punctual, always eager to care for your pets and provide peace of mind when you're away or busy. Please feel free to reach out to set up a meet-and-greet so I can get to know you and your furry babies! I just graduated from WSUV and plan to take some time off before jumping into a career. I have a very open and flexible schedule, and I will be happy to work with any client in a way that best meets their needs. I have personally used Rover many times for my own pet, and I understand how much flexibility is appreciated. I am happy to diligently follow any instructions regarding how the owner would like their pet cared for in their home. I am punctual and can arrive at the time requested for a drop-in visit. I can attentively follow any instructions, for example, precise dosing for meds or the amount of food to give, etc. Additionally, I pride myself on being very communicative.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Washougal
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Skylar treated Miss Kitty like she was her own, and her updates made us feel completely at ease while we were traveling. She was punctual, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat was comfortable and well cared for. Coming home to a happy cat is the best review we can give. Thank you, Skylar—we’ll definitely be booking with you again!
We loved having NIKKI care for our cats while we were away. She is so sweet, and very professional. I know immediately upon meeting her that she would do a great job. During our trip she checked in with us each day to give us a little update on our fur babies, including taking the time to send pictures. Both of our cats seems right at home with her... and snuggled in close for cuddles when she came over. Nikki followed our instructions to the letter. I definitely hope to work with her again sometime, and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!
I highly recommend Carter! They took excellent care of my cat, while I was away. From our initial meeting, it was clear they genuinely love animals. They provided regular updates and adorable photos. Carter went above and beyond in ensuring everything was perfect. I will definitely book them again for my next trip!
Lily took great care of our kitties for an extended holiday trip, giving daily updates so we knew the kitties were doing well! She was proactive in asking about a few house-care related things, and when we came back, all was well with the cats and the house. We'll be back in touch for future trips!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
