“Kaitlin and her husband Nathan took excellent care of my little dog Molly. This is the first time I left her alone with someone else, for over a couple weeks. They helped Molly transition from having a minor separation anxiety, to become fully comfortable by the end of the stay. They cared for her like their own dog. Kaitlin sent photo updates every few days. I recommend Kaitlin, and would book with her again!”
“Dani and her husband provided Bella with lots of fun activity and care while I was away for a birthday trip! I highly recommend Dani for others in the future. Thanks for making Bella feel comfortable away from home! Kathy”
“Kristin and her family as always are amazing! She does a phenomenal giving our dog Weatherly a home away from home. The whole family chips in to provide the love, care, and attention to our dog. We've already rebooked her for our next vacation.”
“Andrea was so good with our dog Emmy! Emmy loved her! It was such a relief to know Emmy was happy, safe and well taken care of while we traveled for the holidays! She provided regular updates with pictures and videos that helped me know Emmy was doing great! I highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a sitter for their dog!!!”
“Amazing experience with Tomas. He was super communicative, thorough, and sent us tons of pictures. Incredibly nice and thoughtful guy who clearly loves animals and is educated on how to properly care for them. Our dog Goose came home in amazing spirits before plopping on the couch and snoring the night away. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you!”
“My golden had the best time staying with Luisa! Plenty of play time and loves! Luisa was very communicative and sent lots of photos and videos which we loved. Thank you Luisa and family for treating our baby girl like your own.”
“Molly is wonderful and I knew our pup was safe in good hands while we were away. She also is an excellent photographer and we got some really great picture updates! Thank you Molly!!”
“Great sitter for our playful goldendoodle. Jordin is very communicative and sends plenty of updates. She’s super friendly and is flexible with scheduling. We’re definitely going to rebook with her during our short stay here in Tacoma. 👍🏽”
“Michelle and Samuel are the absolute best! My dog pit mix, Lazarus had the best time with their personal dog, which are BFF now! They send multiple pictures and videos all through out the day as they would include Laz in the daily walks, hikes, and fetch time, so I always know what he is up to (Helped Moms separation). Absolutely going to recommend Michelle and Samuel to friends and family, if they need a dog sitter. Don’t Think It Gets Better!! ??”
“Took fantastic care of Mimi! Mimi can be an anxious dog but she warmed up to Kelly real quick🩷. The frequent updates kept us reassured during our trip that she is in great hands.”
“Really appreciate how attentive and caring Miranda was after our dog had a medical emergency. She communicated with us often and provided lots of photos and videos! It put our minds at ease knowing he was being so well taken care of.”
“Peter took lots of pics and gave me lots of updates on how my dog was doing. It looks like she got lots of love and was happy in every pic. Plus he has super sweet dogs for your dog to play with. I would use Peter and his family as dog sitters again.”
“Our senior dog, Yogi, stayed with Lizzie for a week. We were tentative to board him because he is an elderly dog and has special needs (suffers from epilepsy). But our worries were quickly put to rest...Lizzie was absolutely great with him. She LOVES dogs and she treated Yogi as one of her own. She kept us updated on Yogi daily, sending us texts and pictures. We are incredibly happy to have found her and will definitely have Yogi stay with her again again!!”
“Bobbi is fantastic. She’s very friendly, communicates quickly, and kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay. She sent lots of pictures and updates on how he was doing, including all the new friends he made. I would definitely recommend Bobbi and would happily book with her again!”
“I adore Vicki and her hubby. They both show a lot of love for canine critters and take such good care of them. They have a great backyard for the dogs to explore, and I never worry one bit about my dog!”
“Maria is honestly the best dog sitter we’ve ever had for Petunia. Maria’s place is her home away from home these days when we need to travel. We can tell Petunia’s anxiety is completely gone at pick up and drop off because she’s so well cared for :)”
“Carl is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and I could tell our boy was very comfortable and having a great time while we were gone. Carl’s space is fantastic for any pets, our dog loved being there. I will absolutely reach out to Carl first in the future for any sitting needs.”
“I couldn't be more pleased with the care my dog received when staying with Ren. Knowing that it was hard for me to be separated from my dog/child, Ren sent me photos and videos of her throughout her stay. Thus, reassuring me that my dog was doing great. It was very clear that she not only was happy and very comfortable... she had made herself completely at home. In fact, I truly believe she misses being at his wonderful and inviting home. Thank you Ren, for taking amazingly good care of my "Lech!" She will definitely be back for more visits.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Artondale
Shannon was amazing! What a great person & dog sitter. My older dog Stella is relaxed but has a few habits, and I’m always a little particular with who she stays with in general. From the moment we met, I know she’d be in safe hands & Shannon often sent updates/photos. I could tell she was cared for as if she was their dog! Thank you Shannon & your lovely family for providing Stella a safe, loving home 🧡🐶

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 Artondale 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 Artondale.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Artondale 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.
