“Megan provided care to my German Shepard and Retriever Labrador over a long weekend getaway. I appreciated that she communicated when issues arose, sent pictures of the boys to ease my mind, and was flexible upon our return as we arrived back three hours earlier than expected. I would definitely trust her to care for my pets in the future.”
“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.”
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 in 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 one dog in my family, 1 year old Rottweiler German Shepard mix!! I have watched both younger dogs, senior pups, and many cats!!
About: We’ve had pets ever since I was a little girl. I’ve had cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, lizards, and arachnids to name a few. I’ve also had extensive experience talking care of both senior and special needs animals. I am currently a stay at home mom, and am available for drop-ins and walks weekdays between 9 AM - 2:30 PM. I may be available for weeknights and weekends, feel free to ask! I worked professionally with dogs as both a groomer and trainer, and am good at listening to what they’re trying to say. I’m also a stickler for leash safety.
“Skylar has been great with my two cats! One has special dietary needs and high anxiety, and she was so patient and thoughtful with him. I immediately hired her again- highly recommend!”
“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs during drop-in visits for feedings. Our two senior dogs are on a plethora of medications, and their meal and medication routine is somewhat complicated. Angela carefully followed our instructions, made sure they received all of their medications, and ensured they ate their meals. She had originally been scheduled for overnights, but I ended up having to cancel my trip because I became very sick. Angela was incredibly flexible with the change in plans and came for drop-in visits instead to help out with the dogs. She communicated with me upon each arrival and made sure all of our dogs’ needs were met. She even went above and beyond by watering our flowers and cleaning up the dog run while I was unable to do it myself. I really appreciated her reliability, flexibility, and care for our dogs. I would absolutely have Angela care for them again!”
“Amy was amazing! She arrived early for our drop-in visit, communicated with us throughout the visit, and sent adorable pictures of our Moose, which gave us great peace of mind. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. We will definitely book with her again!”
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: Whether you're away for a day or an extended trip, I provide personalized care, fun playtime, and plenty of belly rubs for your furry family member. With a calm presence, flexible availability, and a true love for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. Walks, cuddles, feeding, meds; I’ve got it covered! It’s just me and my two teenagers in the house - they are 17 and 19 and both have their own cars so I rarely see them! They’ve grown up around having a dog, and continually pressure me to have another one 😵💫 We had a bully breed mix, Celine Dion who sadly passed from old age in 2019. She had diabetes towards the end of her life, so I’m familiar with giving medication/shots if necessary. Since then we’ve regularly looked after our friends’ dogs until we fostered Simba in 2024 - we had him for 10 months until he was adopted. Because of having family in England, I want to be able to travel there frequently so am not ready to have a permanent dog again yet, but I LOVE having dogs come and stay with me when my calendar allows. I work from home so have flexibility in my routine and am always available for my visitors’ needs. I like to take a morning walk, and an evening one too. I’m not away from home often. I have a fully fenced yard and my neighborhood has beautiful walking trails, that I use whether I am walking a dog, or just walking alone. I’ve fostered rescue dogs and have experience of high anxiety dogs. I’m 6 feet tall and strong, and my last foster was great with people but not so much with other dogs we met on our walks, so I’m used to avoiding them, if necessary! I am happy to send photos to you whilst your dog is in my care, and will communicate with you as frequently as you would like.
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.
“Miss Tiffany immediately bonded with our fussy old cat, Leo. She understood what he wanted and delivered copious pets, snuggles and treats for 12 days. The photos were a testament to his happiness. We couldn’t be happier with her service and most definitely will request her again should the need arise.”
About: Hi! My name is Brooklynn and I have been pet sitting for seven years now. As an animal owner myself, I understand the fear that can arise when leaving your pets alone to go on vacation. My number one priority is to treat your pets with as much love and care as my own. I have experience with dogs big and small, as well as experience using doggy diapers and giving oral medications. I have experience watching up to six dogs at a time! I’m currently a nursing student, so with each day looking a bit different for me, it’s a bit difficult to work. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule however, thanks to no need for a fixed schedule! Communication is a must for me. I want you to know your pets are safe and I want to know I’m caring for your home correctly!
About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting and house sitting for family, friends, and others in my community. I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals with different personalities, routines, and needs, including dogs, cats, and other household pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication and special routines when needed, as well as keeping pets company and giving them plenty of attention. I also have experience house sitting and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own home while keeping the house clean, safe, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule with most mornings and afternoons available, as-well as some evenings. I’m available for pet sitting and drop-in visits throughout the week, as well as weekends after 2:45 PM. I’m happy to work with owners to find a schedule that fits their pets’ routines and needs. I prioritize keeping every pet safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m experienced with caring for pets in their own homes. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and companionship. I treat every home and animal with respect and care!
“Nadia is so attentive and understanding with my dog who has some separation anxiety. She’s spent a lot of time earning her love and trust until she was comfortable to go on walks with her and play. She writes detailed descriptions of their day together and sends lots of photos to give me so peace of mind that she’s in good hands :) couldn’t recommend her more ❤️”
About: I am comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs and cats. I am available every day. I can't wait to hug your pet. I am currently open to caring for your pet(s) every day of the week. On Sundays, I will not be available before 2 PM. I will regularly let your dog out to potty, take your dog on as many walks as necessary, and feed your dog at scheduled times.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Washougal
This was the first time I used Jessica. My cats are usually a little nervous with new people, but she did great with them! She would send pictures every day and they looked happy and well taken care of. Jessica was reliable, prompt to respond to messages, cleaned everything up, and took great care of my cats. I already have her booked for another trip!
We had such a wonderful experience having her watch Diesel. She was caring, attentive, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When Diesel had an accident in his kennel, she went above and beyond—she cleaned him up, removed the soiled blankets, and put them in the sink for us. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really showed how much she cared about him\. We came home to a happy, well-cared pup. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely have her watch Diesel again! ❤️
We don’t book a trip without first booking Skylar. She’s consistent, reliable, and professional. She’s great with our cats and we have confidence that she can handle any situation. Our home is always a pleasure to come home to after she’s been looking after it. Thank you Skylar!!
This was my first time ever leaving my pups and Jessica made me feel very comfortable and confident that they would be taken care of. She was very prompt on the drop in times I requested and took overall great care. I’m very thankful to have found her to take care of my babies.
Angela did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs during drop-in visits for feedings.

I would absolutely have Angela care for them 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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Washougal is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 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 6,458 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Washougal. 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 Washougal. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
