“Samantha was amazing! We felt very comfortable having her watch our cat while we were out of town. She was great at communicating with us and sent detailed updates when she visited our cat.”


“Brittani did such a great job with Rolo! Would highly recommend. She was very communicate and I never felt worried about his care. Thanks again!!”


“Sitlali was wonderful and took great care of our dog during our vacation! We received pictures and reports everyday and she let us know if she had to adjust her schedule a little on any given day. I had never needed to use Rover.com before and she made us very comfortable with the experience. Thank you!!”


“Brittni was an amazing sitter for my kitty! She’s super responsive, a good communicator, thoughtful, punctual, and really sweet with pets. Luna seemed to warm up to her right away! I’d highly recommend Brittni as a pet sitter and will definitely be booking with her again.”


“Very capable and caring professional. Couldn’t have asked for better !”



“Andrea watched Sofi on short notice and kept me up to date with how she was doing after each visit. I will definitely be reaching out again in the future when I’ll be gone!”


“Second time hiring her. She was able to accommodate extra visits on short notice and a day early, since one kitty got sick right before my trip. She got all the kitties to warm at least a little to her, including the scaredy cat. Would hire a third time.”


About: I've owned dogs my entire life and I love every second. I've pet sat often and wouldn't be more thrilled when reached out to. Your furry friend will be safe here! I'm am home all day so I am free 24/7. I do college one day a week and have tame indoor hobbies I can do around your pet! Pet care will be done whenever needed as my schedule is flexible. I have a large studio with a large fenced balcony attached. The balcony has enough room to play a bit and a 4 ft railing. Pets will also have access to the fenced yard down stairs on occasion.

About: I have personally had many dogs over the years, and that has given me great experience with them. I have had both large and small dogs of my own. Over the years I have dog sat friends and family's animals countless times. I also have good experience walking dogs, from my own animals, to friends and family's dogs, and volunteering to walk dog at the local humane society. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and am comfortable with little Chihuahua to big Alaskan Malamutes. I do not mind the slobber or cleaning up after them, all doggies I love. I don't have any breed preferences, all types of dogs are welcomed. I am patient and can handle a rowdy bunch of pups too. As a college student on summer break, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for your pets and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I’m flexible and available to fit their routine. With no strict schedule tying me down, I can give your pets the attention they deserve—whether they need active engagement, medication management, or just some extra cuddles. I’m ready to be their new best friend while you’re away! Providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, I ensure a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can feel secure and loved. Whether they need a quiet corner to relax or plenty of room to play, I adapt to their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and surroundings, maintaining a familiar and reassuring atmosphere. I take extra precautions with doors, gates, and feeding schedules to ensure their safety, and I always follow specific care instructions provided by owners. My goal is to build trust—with both pets and their humans—so they feel confident knowing their furry friends are in good hands.

“Stefani is great! We have four cats, and one of them needs insulin twice daily. She made house visits while we were gone, and everything went well. We came back after a week to find them healthy and happy. We would definitely trust Stefani and recommend her.”


“Marcelline was great with our dog Hank! She kept us updated throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her!”


“We had a change of plans and needed a sitter; Kamren helped us out and was able to get my shy kitty to warm up to him too! He sent me plenty of pictures showing how my cats were doing and he was good at responding back. Would definitely have him watch my babies next time we need a sitter!”


About: Hi! Since I’m new to Rover, I appreciate you considering to book with me! As a pet owner (I have a 4 year old Chihuahua mix!), I understand the stress knowing someone else is taking care of your beloved pets so I’ll always treat your pet as if they’re my own! Our pets are family and I can guarantee your pets are in good hands with me. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats from babies to ill/elderly pets. I’m happy to do basic training when needed. I am currently in between jobs, so have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of pets! Most days and times will work great. I promise to follow all rules set by owners, as I understand how important it is to keep consistency for your pets. I also will always try leave a space better than I found it.

“Katelyn - I am soooo sorry this has taken me so long to post! Katelyn did a great job and I aksed if she could come 1 more day and it was not a problem! I would highly recommend Katelyn! I received pics of food and packages she brought in. I had 2 cats and they hide so no pics of them! :) Booking you again for another hospital stay in Seattle!”


About: Im an active person who likes to walk and play with pets! I like many playing stylesnlike rough play with hands or gentle play with toys. I also have expirience playing with and takeing care of cats! Im aware of allergies and the needs of animals that need bacic special care, like oral medication or ointments. I am free most days so usualy i can come in whenever needed, i sometimes leave during night stays as i do have errends to do sometimes but often i just stay and hand out with your pets. I take pets out and feed them and make sure they always have water. Playing to me is a good way to make bonds with pets and a good way i take care of them.

“Nice and professional. Stayed several days with his fiance to watch my 1 cat. Came back to my apartment just like I left it. Sent daily pictures. Followed all instructions.”


“They took very good care of my cat opal.”


“Jasmine was very attentive to my cats! They loved the cat tree.”


About: From fancy dogs with special diet and grooming regimens to skrungle cats who eat trash exclusively, I've run the gamut when it comes to pet care. I'm also experienced with giving meds to both dogs and cats via pill, liquid, or injection. I am currently enrolled in school, but I'm only a part-time student (3 hours per day) so I have basically the whole day to hang out with your animals. Creating an accommodating environment for animals is important as the person caring for them to keep things safe and comfortable for everyone. Abiding by set routines and following house rules is something I'm personally big on. I also have a fenced in back yard at my house for short term stays if needed.

About: I am currently watching a dog every Monday-Thursday. I have been doing this since September of 2024. I am well aware of the exercise they need and the energy some have. I am currently looking for a job but do not have one so my availability is open. Please reach out if you have any preferences. I make sure that my cat has a balanced diet throughout the day and gets plenty of playtime and affection. When I go to watch my clients dog I make sure that they have a good amount of playtime and affection.
