“Moving back to the PACNW has been hard and I always worry about finding someone perfect, caring, and feels the same way about our fur babies as we do. I am so thankful I found Jessica. She is exactly what we always dream of finding in a pet sitter. She has great communication, and I always love seeing all of the pictures she sends during her visits. One of our “kids” is a new rescue that has joined our family. She has been patient and understands his behaviors. If you are looking for someone, she is the best out there! Thank you Jessica! We are lucky to have you! 🥰”
“Jill did a great job looking after our farmstead over the holiday. She was very conscientious before and during the job, making sure she was clear on what to do and sending updates and photos each day. Everyone was doing great when we returned and everything was in order.”
“Amazing job! My cats are very skiddish and shy but she took her time to play with Potts and give her treats. Went above and beyond giving them wet food and stopping to look under the bed to check on both cats. Super sweet and definitely took care of my pets as if they were her own. Highly recommended and will book again in the future. ☺️”
About: Hi! My name is Kourtney , I’m trying something new! I have yrs of experience with working with the elderly and kids… but I would really love to just take that caring side and just love on animals. I have always had cats ( be nice you dog loving people) U till 9 yrs ago … I rescued a Beautiful Pitty from Washougal’s Animal Shelter. Her name was Dixie.. I quickly learned a whole new meaning of love and loyalty. Hands down the best dog ever!! Last yr at the age of 14” roughly) I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl . She left behind a 2 yr old Brother “Ammo” a Husky/malamute. And 2 months ago we welcomed a Pitty Puppy to the fam . I have a large fenced back yard 6ft high . Ma covered deck and a back room with couch , tv and radio for puppy friends… I currently am a full time Nanny , so will be starting out part time .. Fri-Sun .. if it all works out, I will be transitioning to pet care full time . Your fur baby will have 2 friends, off the bat. Safe to go outside and in as little or as often as they want . Would just need to know if there is food aggression, as I would separate at feeding time :)
About: While I've grown up with dogs and cats, I also have professional pet sitting experience taking care of dogs with diabetes, blind cats, guinea pigs, and even a llama! Pets and their caretakers have trusted me so much, they have flown me to their new homes after moving out of state for further petsitting assignments. I give emotional connection and comfort to pets while they're missing their humans, even reading aloud to them, because I believe it is an integral part of the job. Currently, this is my primary work, so I will have time to spare to take care of your animals. I volunteer regularly at animal sanctuaries and other orgs to improve the lives of animals. I have typically been asked to spend the night with the pets in the client's home, and spend as much time with them as possible, but I can also make daily visits instead if necessary. If you prefer I make visits, keep in mind the distance it would take for me to get to your place, and consider allowing me to make fewer, longer visits instead of multiple brief ones throughout the day.
“Madeline was great. Very communicative about the status of my pets while I was away and the seemed to be happy than from previous times I’ve used a pet sitter so would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

“Keith was very communicative (even when I wasn’t able to get back to him) and took great care of my cats while I was out of town! Would recommend him to anyone looking for a cat sitter.”
“Jessica did a fantastic job caring for our furry ones. She went above and beyond to take great care of them, sending me updates and photos each day. Our cats tend to be quite picky about humans, and they took to her very quickly. Highly recommend. Thank you, Jessica!”
“Madelyn has taken care of our Buddy a couple of times and I can’t recommend her enough. She is highly attentive and super detail-oriented when it comes to ensuring he gets equal (and better!) treatment in our absence. Madelyn was able to build quick rapport with Buddy and we have never felt less than confident he’s getting the best care while we are away.”
About: I have been pet sitting around my neighborhood for years and am very trust worthy! I am starting nursing school and would love to make extra money on the side by loving and taking care of animals while studying for my bachelors!! I am currently about to be starting nursing school and will be living at home and studying. I can drive wherever to pet sit, walk dogs, or be there to cuddle your fur babies!! I have two dogs in my family, an eight year old Rottweiler, and a six month old puppy mix!! I have watched both younger dogs, senior pups, and cats!!
“Skylar is wonderful!! She is very responsive and sends updates & lots of photos anytime she takes care of my kitty. She is kind & trustworthy, and I never worry about my cat whenever I leave her in Skylar’s care. :) This was my second time booking with her and I will continue to do so!”
“Kaiea is an incredible pet sitter! From the photos she sent, it was clear our cat really liked her — which says a lot. She was reliable, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout our trip. We have a couple of automatic litter boxes that are notoriously finicky and often break down. Of course, they decided to stop working while we were out of town. Thankfully, Kaiea was able to troubleshoot the issue and get them up and running again — a huge relief! On top of that, I have a fairly large garden with lots of plants that need regular watering. While that’s definitely not part of the typical pet-sitting job, she went out of her way to take care of them as well. When we returned, our cats were happy, the house was in great shape, and even the garden looked fantastic. We already have several more trips planned, and it’s such a comfort knowing we have someone trustworthy and caring to look after our pets (and plants!) while we’re away.”
“My kitties loved Mary! She was very communicative with me during the ice storm that hit the city, making sure I knew when she was able to visit and spending more time with them when she could. The house looked great and cats were happy when we came home!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 16 years old. I love caring for the pet of others and allowing pet owners to have peace of mind when they are away. I care for the pets of others if they were my own. I work from home, so I am flexible. When I pet sit sometimes the animals will hang out with me in my office while I am working, or sometimes I will find them in the living room sleeping on the couch. I care for pets in my home by allowing them to roam freely as if were their own home. It will vary depending on the type of care you pet needs. Special diets, etc.
About: Animals have always been a major part of my life, and I have always treated my animals like family members, with respect and kindness. All animals are special and have personalities that just always bring joy to my heart. Throughout my entire life I have always had various animals in my homes and I don't think I would of had it any other way. They bring me great joy as companions and as a member of my family.

Jessica was wonderful! I could tell immediately upon meeting her that she has a deep connection with animals. She was also so kind to my 5 yr old son and took on our job last minute which I really appreciate so much. She was very kind and connected really well with our cat. She took great care of everything, kept things clean, and even cleaned up litter that our cat had spilled. Her communication was excellent, and she sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It gave me so much peace of mind and helped me actually relax and enjoy my vacation knowing our cat was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend!!! Thank you Jessica!
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!

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 Washougal 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.
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 Washougal. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
