“Dana is a wonderful caregiver for both our dogs. We left them in her care for 12 days. Our pups were happy and healthy and well cared for. Dana sent us great pics of the dogs and responded right away when we messaged her each day. We highly recommend Dana and we will definitely use her again.”

About: I’m a Samoyed owner with hands-on experience caring for large, energetic dogs. I’m comfortable with strong pullers, long walks, high-energy play, feeding, basic routines, and keeping dogs safely supervised. I understand that every dog has their own personality and boundaries, so I always follow the owner’s instructions and take time to learn each dog’s routine and preferences. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to provide plenty of exercise for dogs who need it! I’m usually available 7 days a week. Same-day bookings are welcome! Please send your request at least 6 hours before your preferred start time. My schedule is flexible, so feel free to reach out if you have any special timing needs. Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including preferred walking routes, leash and harness routines, interactions with other dogs, and any behaviors or triggers I should watch for. I keep dogs leashed throughout walks unless specifically instructed otherwise in a safe and appropriate area. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos during or after each walk.
“The sweetest sitter ever!! 🥹💕 10/10, we absolutely loved our experience! She sent me so many adorable videos of our girls playing, which made me feel so comfortable knowing they were having the best time. She even sent them home with cute little bandanas and a bag of treats 🥹🎀 The sweetest, most thoughtful touch! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our babies and for being so responsive, flexible, and genuinely sweet to our girls. You can tell how much love and care she puts into what she does, and that means everything as a dog mom. We’ll absolutely be leaving both of our babies with her whenever we have a show in Tacoma! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly, highly recommend!! 💕”
“The BEST. We had our regular sitter cancel last Minute due to a family emergency which is understandable and we thought we wouldn’t be able to find a sitter last minute nonetheless a holiday weekend and Caitlyn and Andrew came through in the last hr to save our family trip. They provided multiple pictures and videos every couple hrs, updates a couple times a day , we felt very comfortable and relieved that we left our Luka with them . I will be using them again and I recommend to anyone.”
“Lani and her family are so very kind and accommodating. We are so pleased to have them as our dogs sitters. We never have to worry about our fur babies when she is caring for them. She gives them so much attention and affection. Our dogs are happy to stay with her and not stressed at all when we pick them up. We are so lucky to have found Lani.”
About: Hi! I am a dog parent to a sweet Pembroke Welsh corgi and I know how important it is to find someone who truly gets your dogs need from daily routine routines to emotional comfort. I value enrichment just as much as exercise from sniff walks and food puzzles to games and new experiences. I make sure dogs get the mental stimulation they need to feel satisfied and balanced. Whether your dog is high energy or prefers a slower pace I’ll taylor their day to the unique needs. I am attentive and committed to treating your pup like one of my own with lots of love gentle structure and constant updates to keep you in the loop. I am available everyday, from 6am to 5pm (sometimes even until 8pm). My Corgi is friendly and is also ready to play (if your dog wishes to). I follow what you indicate and do what’s best for your Pup. I knos how to read dog’s body language and is ready to make them feel loved. I am attentive of what your Pup puts in their mouth, the environment they are walking around, the noises… anything that might cause trouble.
“Ronak was great! Stepped up when I had an emergency and was able to keep him beyond the original booking. Kept me updated every day with pictures. My Max came back to me in great shape.”

I had excellent communication. I got pictures of my dog and saw him really enjoying his stay. When I got Samu back, he looked like he didn't want to leave haha. So I can tell he really enjoyed his stay. I got a stress free to thanks to your support. Thank you. I'm sure Samu will want to come back.
A family emergency had us traveling unexpectedly, Erika took in our little dog at the last minute. We got updates & lots of pictures. We knew our pup was in a safe, loving environment which made our situation a lot easier to deal with. We feel so lucky to have found Erika, she is truly wonderful.
I cannot express the amount of detail and love that he puts into caring for our dogs. We've done everything you can imagine: dog boarding, PetSmart, friends and family but we've never had such an amazing experience with George and his lovely family. Our dogs were welcomed with such open arms while checking in with us to see how they are doing. The care they received was above and beyond and I couldn't be happier to make him out exclusive dog sitter :)
Lulu was absolutely wonderful with our pup! She kept us updated every day with photos, videos, and detailed notes about how our dog was doing. We always felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring, attentive hands. She even shared helpful training tips that made a real difference. We’re so grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alderton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alderton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alderton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
