“Johanna was extremely easy to work with. Very communicative! Sent lots of pictures which I appreciate and seemed to bond with all our animals pretty quickly. She takes caring for our animals very seriously. And I’ve already booked her again! Highly recommend!”
“Josh accepted our last minute request so that we could leave town for a funeral and even arrived at 4:30 am for our early flight. He took great care of our dogs and even checked to make sure things were good with our reptile. In addition he left the house as he found it and cleaned up after himself.”
“Awesome dog and house sitter experience! Communication was top-notch from the get-go, and they did an amazing job looking after our dogs and home. The photo and video updates were awesome! We've already booked them for our next trip. Definitely recommend them for reliable and thoughtful sitting services.”
About: What sets me apart is that I’m reliable, flexible, and focused on making pets feel comfortable and cared for in their own home. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to adjust my care to fit their specific needs. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, including puppies who need consistency and supervision, as well as senior pets who may require a calmer environment, extra patience, or medication reminders. I make communication a priority by providing regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected to their pets at all times. I’m a flexible college student balancing classes, studying, and a part-time job. My schedule changes often, so I’ve learned how to adapt quickly and stay organized while managing school, work, and personal time. Some days are packed with assignments and shifts, while others are more open, which helps me stay balanced and avoid burnout. Even with a busy routine, I make time to stay productive, meet deadlines, and keep up with responsibilities while still having flexibility in my day-to-day life. I care for pets in a client’s home by following their usual routine to help the pet feel comfortable and reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes feeding, refreshing water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after the pet, and giving lots of attention and companionship. I also follow any specific instructions regarding medications, training, exercise, or special care needs. I respect the client’s home by keeping things clean, secure, and organized during each visit. I also provide updates and photos when requested so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Absolutely wonderful sitter. Literally zero complaints, she was communicative, helpful, took notes on the goods and the bads, went above and beyond to provide service for my pets. Absolutely will be using her again, first choice.”
“laurin took great care of my dogs - two senior pups. she made sure special instructions were followed and ensured there were frequent checkins. great communication and left home clean. pups were very loved with laurin!”
“I cannot express enough how thankful we are! I have a rescue pup and he has some separation anxiety but loves making new friends and Zach was the perfect friend while I was out of the country. He house sat for me and watched the pup. I can home to a spotless house and a very very happy, well cared for doggy. Zach even played guitar for him while i was gone and worked on training with games. Would HIGHLY recommend. Not many people out there this good with animals. Thanks again! 😘”
“Pazia did a great job house sitting for two nights; when I came home my house was clean and my cat was happy! Pazia is also very quick to respond and sends great pictures. My cat takes oral medications and Pazia always lets me know if there are any concerns. I would definitely recommend their services.”
“Cattleya was wonderful with our huskies and did us a huge favor filling in for our regular sitter last minute. We felt very comfortable with her caring for our home and our pups for the weekend. We will definitely be booking with her in the future 😊”
About: When I was little and people asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always said 'dog walker' — and now I finally get to live that dream! This summer I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I have experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats, and I treat every animal like my own. This summer I'm home in Olympia taking a college course, so my days are flexible and my focus is simple — hitting the books and spoiling some fur babies! I have plenty of time and am committed to giving your pet consistent, reliable care My home comes with a large fenced yard — plenty of room for your pup to run wild, explore, and have the time of their life!
“Kirsten was great! She helped us out with really short notice, and was very flexible & accommodating. Cooper seemed to connect with her right away! We will definitely book her again!!”
“We are very happy to have found Summer on Rover. This is the third time we have worked with her, and she continues to be reliable, trustworthy, and communicative, and takes good care of our kitty.”
“Mckinzie took excellent care of our pooch, house and yard! She was very sensitive to our shy dog’s personality and they ended up good friends! We appreciated her quick response time too. We will definitely use Mckinzie again in the future!”
“Super communicator! Aaliyah was great at giving updates and keeping us in the loop about our two goofball dogs. Provided photos, double checked on our return times; had a great experience working with her and would recommend highly”
About: As an experienced dog sitter, I go beyond basic care by truly understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have a natural ability to read their body language and adapt to their moods, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medications, following specific dietary plans, or providing enriching playtime and walks, I tailor my approach to each dog’s routine. My calm and attentive demeanor helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease, and I maintain clear communication with pet owners for peace of mind. Having cared for my own senior Pomeranian, Zeus, until he was 14, I am particularly attuned to the special needs of older dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines for their comfort. I currently have an year and a half year old Yellow Labrador Retriever named cooper, so well experienced with puppies I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to be there consistently. I love getting outside for walks and making sure dogs stay mentally and physically happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, including senior dogs and puppies. I always keep a close eye during walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment.
“Simonne did great watching my dog, June! June is nervous around new people but Simonne was patient and gentle with her. She sent lots of pictures during her stay which I loved. I plan to keep using Simonne!”

Madison took great care of our houseful of pets! Our two dogs love her and she gave one of our cats meds twice a day. Communication was good and she took the extra time to come by before she pet sat to get updates and review all the pet routines. Highly recommend!
Bee was great with my dog Asher. She was very gentle and patient with him and showed a lot of knowledge about dog behavior. Asher can be anxious with new people, but he quickly showed that he felt safe with her. I think Bee would be good with so many types of dogs because she was very attentive to what Asher needed and adapted her approach to fit his personality. I will definitely book with her again!
Kacie was a great house sitter for my energetic/anxious pit bull, who requires some extra care and patience. She sent lots of pictures/kept me updated, followed instructions, and kept my dog happy with play time too! Would recommend for any one's pet sitting needs. Thank you Kacie!!
Jackie (Kirsten) was an excellent choice for our dog while we were on vacation. She was friendly and really a natural when interacting with our nervous dog. We felt confident that it was a good fit, and we were correct. Jackie communicated with us via email and sending photos daily. We came home to a happy dog. We plan on using her services in the future!
Taylor went above and beyond to care for our kitty Cal at our house while we were away for a week. She was communicative throughout and sent the cutest pictures. I could tell when I got home how well taken care of he was. She left the house super tidy and ready for us to return. We will absolutely be asking Taylor to sit again. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet/house sitter!
Anita took very good care of my dog and cat. She gave the cat plenty of space and was patient with her introvert ways. Nova even started to hang out in the same area as Anita towards the end of her stay. Anita was injured right before our booking but did not cancel and was positive and upbeat about it. I really appreciate the care she gave our pets. The house was clean and in order when we returned. I would not hesitate to ask Anita to stay with Abby and Nova again.
Well Roberta knocked it out of the park according to Chidi and Ellie. On time, present, and engaged... no meals missed, no treats too small, walks in the park and ball chasing in the back yard. Roberta did it all and kept us on our toes! Thank you for a great week while Dad was away, we much appreciate it!
Olivia was a wonderful dog sitter for our Cattle Dog, Otis, and our cat and chickens. I hired her specifically because she had experience with high energy cattle dogs and more “farm” type animals — and she was great at everything! She asked thoughtful questions about the animal care and was very good at communicating. This was also a last minute request with a few changes that needed to be accommodated and she was very flexible with our requests and timeline for the weekend. She left the house in outstanding condition and really went above and beyond in all ways. Thank you so much, Olivia! I would trust you to care for our animals and home any time — thank you!
