“When I got home he was sound asleep! He pooped and peed before I left for my dermatology appointment @ 10:30 am Thank you AGAIN for taking such good care of my little boy”
“This was my first time using Rover, Holly was very communicative regarding anything unusual while walking my dog. Stuck to our agreed upon schedule and I came home to a happy well cared for pup!”
“Lelia is dependable and a great communicator. I had a hiccup with logistics and timing however she was flexible and accommodating and spent extra time with Spanky. Spanky is a shy boy and will not usually walk out of the house with a stranger, unless he is on leash. He liked Lelia enough to for a walk without being coaxed outside on his leash! I will definitely book Lelia again!”
“Saved our bacon at the last minute with a walk, and very clearly knows exactly what she’s doing. Ever meet someone and you think “phew, they are an expert at this”? Yeah that’s her”
About: I’m a retired professional who enjoys staying active while providing dependable, compassionate care for pets. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, overnight stays, administering routine medications, or simply providing companionship, I tailor my care to each pet’s and owner’s unique needs and routine. I also believe communication is essential, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and prompt responses throughout your pet’s stay. Pet sitting isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Building trust with both pets and their owners is the most rewarding part of the experience. If you’re looking for a mature, reliable sitter who will provide exceptional care and give you peace of mind, I’d be honored to care for your furry family members. My schedule is flexible; especially with advance notice. Whether it’s walks and potty breaks or overnight sitting I can usually accommodate any schedule, including the holidays. Although typically we will not board at our home, on occasion we’ll make exceptions depending on the breed and temperament. We have two Shih Tzu’s that are extremely playful and nice with other pets. In your home, I will take care of your pets as you would.
“So glad Anne could help out with my dogs! They have a hard time being alone for too long, and having her walk them and spend time with them was wonderful. Definitely recommend her!”
“Rachel is wonderful! We highly recommend her. For the past few years, she has walked our dog, Daisy, for us during the work week. She is reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and Daisy loves her! I also love getting the photos at work of all of Daisy’s belly rubs and adventures. Thank you, Rachel!”
About: Hello! I have owned dogs for the past 10 years, and have been dog sitting for 5 years. My goal is to keep them happy and healthy. I will treat every dog in my care like my own. Hello! I have a full-time job and offer services to care for or walk dogs on the side. I have a collie mix named Sadie who has taught me a lot as a dog owner. I love all pets especially dogs, and it is a joy to see a smile on a dog’s face. I treat every dog in my care like my own in that I believe the physical and mental health is important to a happy dog. It can be a little stressful for a dog to be in a new environment with a new person, so I like to keep their routine the best I can.
“Erica has been walking our pups for almost a year. She has always been available, always been punctual, and has always been a great communicator. Our dogs love her and are always excited to see her. Even our one dog who was abused and doesn't like most people took to her right away. Rest assured when you choose Erica your pets are in great hands. Thank-you for always taking such good care of our pups!”
“Sarah is so wonderful with our German Shepherd. She was so thoughtful about the weather conditions this week and made sure our girl was well taken care of. Sarah is the best!”
“Arianna is a trustworthy and excellent person. My pooch loves her and she is flexible, responsible, and responds well. She is now dooing weekly with me! Thanks!”
About: I moved from Mi to Wa in 2015 and decided in 2018 to be a dog walker. That was in King county and after moving to a house in 2021, dog boarding turned into my new side job. Last year I also enrolled in Victoria Stilwell’s Academy for positive training. So I am very aware of dog’s body language and needs. I absolutely love dogs and they are truly my life now but when I was 8 that wasn’t the case. I was bit in the face by a family friend’s dog. He was old and on medication, I startled him awake which led to him biting me. From this incident, I watched Victoria Stilwell on animal planet to get over my fear of bigger dogs and here I am today with a certification in dog training and starting my career with human’s best friend. My goal is for you and your dog to be as comfortable as possible. I only treat dogs/pets as I would want someone to treat mine (and believe me I am a high maintenance pet mom 😉) Dogs are my job. Whether it is boarding, sitting, or walking; this is what I do full time. Sometimes I do Instacart to get out a bit but will do that when my boyfriend is home. I am starting up my bath bomb business again so to have a companion working alongside with me is my ideal work day. My boyfriend works from home majority of the time, so there is always someone home. His kids do come over 50% of the week and are very kind and helpful with dogs that are boarding with me. They are 12 and 11 so they aren’t little kids. I have lick mats, Kong Gyro, and plenty of space for your dog to have fun at my house. My house is fenced in, we are updating the property all the time to make sure it is safe as possible. For larger dogs, I have a bell on a ziptie to put on your dog’s collar just so I can hear where they are at all times when I am outside with them. For smaller pups, I always go outside with them due to being in an open area so they are safe. I also have a 30’ leash that I can hook them to for extra safety. Inside, I make them as comfortable as possible. Whatever they like at home I try my best to provide at my house.
“Savina did a great job walking our dog while we were out for the day. We came home to a worn out and happy pup! We had peace of mind knowing Savina was watching over our baby. We recommend Savina and will book her for future walks!”
“Allie is great!! Our dogs are quite particular about who they accept and they got along with Allie immediately. We’re transitioning form daycare to walks at home (a big change for our pups) and Allie has made us all feel comfortable.”
“Megan is such a kind soul and really a blessing and is really good with nova. Nova always gets excited when Megan comes around. I've already mentioned how wonderful she is with communication but I'll say it again because she is a rockstar”
About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a passionate animal lover with 5 years of hands-on pet care experience. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I currently have 3 dogs, 1 cat, and 5 chickens of my own! My experience goes far beyond caring for my own pets. I’ve worked at two dog daycares and as a groomer, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, dogs with intense anxiety, and dogs who need a little extra patience, reassurance, and one-on-one attention. I’ve also administered medications and am comfortable following specific care instructions to make sure every pet gets exactly what they need. I have extensive experience with cats as well, including kittens, senior cats, cats requiring medication, and even feral cats. I’m FetchFind certified, which taught me a lot about animal behavior and communication, and I’m currently completing two animal behavior certifications through Washington State University, where I’m learning more about animal behavior, including both canine and feline behavior. I especially love working with animals who need a little extra love and understanding. Whether your pet is nervous, elderly, energetic, shy, independent, or simply takes some time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and give them the individualized care they deserve. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, enrichment, and care! 🐾❤️ I’ll be attending school part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule to dedicate time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work my school schedule around my pet-care bookings and make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’m looking forward to spending my free time with your babies, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping them company! 🐾❤️ When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, enrichment, and any specific routines or preferences your pet has. I’ll give them plenty of attention and companionship while also respecting their space if they’re more independent or need time to warm up. I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes. I’ll keep things clean and tidy, make sure doors and gates are secure, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Since I’ll be attending school part-time, I’ll have plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to your pets and make sure they aren’t simply being checked on, but are receiving meaningful one-on-one care throughout my visits. 🐾❤️
About: I’ve never understood why chihuahuas loved me so much until I realized how much people don’t respect the boundaries of such small creatures. So much so, they feel the need to be aggressive and defend themselves! I know a good amount about dogs and dogs breeds, how different breeds have different needs and will strive to meet the needs of your fur-baby! I am a full-time Master’s student, but my classes are on weekends only. I have many things to read so overnights would likely be spent playing with your fur-baby before I get some reading done for my degree. To make sure you and your fur-baby feel safe with me in your home, I will make sure to talk through routines you may have with your pet(s). I know how hard it is to be away from your pet, so I will make sure to send photos and videos as requested. I want to make sure I know how to properly care for your pets, so I may have a couple extra questions to figure out how I may support you and your pet.
About: I currently have a little guy who is known in our neighborhood as spunky, playful and a cuddle bug! My partner and I work from home, so we are available all day to care for your pet. We love a good walk, and pride ourselves on being attentive to the little ones. My partner and I work from home, I am a mental health therapist and she is a home designer. I work about 4 hours a day Mon-Thur with Fridays off, so regular walks and playtime are a part of our routine, as well as lounging and resting with the pups. Our community would say we spoil our little guy! Toys, treats, outdoor lounging are a part of our routine. We have a fenced yard, with opportunities for exploration. I am familiar with the neighborhood, and live walking distance from the harbor. We have mapped the local vets and emergency locations, and living walking distance from Wilco and Lucky Dog in case your pup needs some extra attention.
“Kaylee is amazing with our pup! I can tell she treats and cares for him like he’s her own. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their doggos:)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Artondale
Rachel is wonderful! We highly recommend her. For the past few years, she has walked our dog, Daisy, for us during the work week. She is reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and Daisy loves her! I also love getting the photos at work of all of Daisy’s belly rubs and adventures. Thank you, Rachel!
Christine is amazing!! We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter. She was extremely easy to work with - friendly, responsive, and great about sending updates with photos. Most importantly, she has extensive experience with more challenging dogs. Our dog is highly reactive to other dogs and can be fearful around new people, but Christine put her at ease right away. From our first meeting, it was clear that Christine has an excellent ability to read dogs and adapt to their needs. We won’t hesitate to ask her for help again and we know our dog will be happy too!

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

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 walker.
