“Biscuit had such a great time with Kevin & Kandice! They were super communicative throughout his entire stay and sent us regular updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. They took such great care of him and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for.”
“Once again always going above and beyond for my Bear. Stellar people who take such amazing care of Bear and are so helpful. I can never say too many good things about them, because they are truly a blessing. I will happily be a repeating customer of theirs!”
“Brandon is always great with Finn, and I’m not sure which of the two are more excited for the visit. Fantastic with communication and considerate of the time zones and my strange work schedules when I’m away for updates.”
“My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!”
“Steve was a great sitter for our pup Asher. Our go to person cancelled on us and we were in a hurry to find someone, Steve made it very easy to reach him and communicate with. He clearly has been around a lot of dogs and asked all the right questions, plus he gave me a tour of his home and yard. Very kind and easy to work with! Thank you Steve 😊 would definitely recommend him!”
“My dog gets nervous when staying with new people. She was especially upset when I dropped her off, waking Chris up throughout the night. Chris was so super kind and patient about it and my dog got so comfortable so fast and ended up having a great time! So grateful to Chris for taking my girl on such late notice and loving on her so good! Also the photo and video updates he sends are top notch.”
“Brenda took wonderful care of our dog, Zelda, during our 4 day trip. Zelda can be a finicky eater and also chews up paper, so leaving her with a caring and attentive Rover really helps us be able to travel with ease. Zelda did great under Brenda's care, and came home happy and healthy. I definitely recommend booking with Brenda and will rebook in the future! Thank you so much!”
About: Welcome to Bud’s house 🐾 This is not a “drop your dog and hope for the best” situation — this is a play, cuddle, and feel-at-home experience. I helped build a dog daycare here in Seattle, so I’ve spent years learning how dogs actually behave—who wants to play, who needs a break, and how to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. At home, we keep that same vibe—but way more personal. Our dog Bud (2 years old) is the host. He’s friendly, playful, and great with other dogs—basically the guy who makes sure everyone feels welcome. If your dog likes to play, they’ll have a blast. If they prefer to chill, we’ve got cozy spots for that too. My wife (originally from Colombia 🇨🇴) has been around dogs her whole life and brings a ton of warmth and attention to every pup that walks through the door. What your dog gets: 🐾 Supervised play (no chaos, just good energy) 🐾 A safe, calm environment 🐾 Plenty of attention, affection, and breaks when needed 🐾 A new best friend in Bud We keep things small, intentional, and stress-free—so your dog isn’t just “watched”… they’re part of the pack. Dogs basically run our schedule 😊 We walk Bud three times a day, and since we’re home most of the day, there’s always someone around for playtime, snuggles, or a quick potty break. Your dog just joins right in. In our home, dogs are part of the daily routine—not just “watched.” We provide structured care with three walks a day, supervised play, and plenty of downtime when needed. We do have a partially fenced yard, but we don’t rely on it—dogs are always supervised outside and primarily get their exercise through regular walks. Because of my daycare background, I pay close attention to each dog’s personality—whether they want to play, relax, or have their own space—and make sure everyone stays safe and comfortable.
“Patty was incredible! She’s everything you’d want in a sitter - kind, calm energy, active, and attentive. We got frequent updates from her, and she took the time to really get to know my dog. Plus, her large grassy yard is awesome and she’ll leave the door open when it’s nice out. I felt at ease the whole time my pup was with Patty and would certainly recommend her to others!”
“Great communication, friendly, flexible, and very clearly loves dogs! I trust Kaylie with my two pups and wouldn’t hesitate to bring them back for other stays. They love the backyard and spending time with the resident dogs there!”
“Yuna was an absolute gem to have caring for Pixel! From the start she was proactive, thoughtful, and clearly put his wellbeing first. She always checked with us before giving him any food or treats, which meant a lot given how careful we are with his diet. She sent constant updates with photos, so we never had to wonder how he was doing. Pixel got plenty of exercise and came back happy, relaxed, and well looked after. You can tell Yuna genuinely loves what she does. Reliable, communicative, and caring. I would 100% recommend her and will absolutely book her again! A special shout out to Mocha who was an Excellent doggo, he and pixel became good friends :)”
“Patch always like to stay with Quang. He is happy from the moment he is arriving and he did not want to leave. The pictures we received are such a joy and give us so much comfort in knowing that Patch is really having fun.”
“Erin & Kevin were so wonderful with our Apollo! We are from out of town and had to go home suddenly, so it was our first time using Rover. Erin sent frequent updates of Apollo and sent the cutest pictures - and he clearly had a blast! Highly recommend!”
“Casey and Eric were so great with Banjo. Sent lots of updates and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will book with them and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone!”
“Mimi took great care of our little Rosy, who can be selective about her humans, and is on the nervous side any time she is watched by someone other than us. We got lots of updates and pictures, and it was clear that she was getting great care and lots of cuddles.”
“Emily did a meet and greet with my nervous dog the day before boarding and he could not have immediately loved her more. The next day he whined and pulled to get to her when we arrived. Emily sent pics and updates during his stay and even made him a jaunty new fashion accessory. 10/10!”
“I had a great experience and the caretaker was very kind and kept me updated with pictures and messages about how my dog was doing while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. When I picked her up, she seemed happy and well cared for. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their dog!”
“Theresa was great! She was so sweet with Finn. She sent daily pictures to let me know how he was settling in. Finn loved her dogs too!! I would highly recommend Theresa and will use her again!”
“This was a first stay for Marley with Heather, and a first stay for me using Rover. I am very pleased with Heather's caring attention to Marley. She sent photos several times a day and it looks like he was doing very well. I will definitely book with Heather again.”

Erin was incredible! She took care of our puppy for several nights and she is such a wonderful communicator. Erin took our puppy for several walks, let her play with other pups and her cat, and overall provided a safe and fun environment. This was our second time booking with Erin. Highly recommend!
Meredith took wonderful care of my two dogs. One of them is very shy and needs some extra patience, but he warmed up and seemed comfortable there quickly. She was great to work with through the whole process. I'd be happy to bring my dogs back again and would definitely recommend her to others!
Maria and Kalyan were very kind and attentive during my dog Levi’s first overnight stay. They ask good questions to make sure they understood Levi’s needs and behaviors. They sent me multiple updates with pictures on their activities and how my dog was responding, which really out my mind at ease during my trip. I will definitely be rebooking with them!
We’ve had two great stays with Joe! Bobbie and Kiko are officially buddies now, and it’s so fun knowing she has a friend to wrestle and play with. Joe is very responsive whenever I reach out, and I feel completely comfortable leaving Bobbie in his care. We’ve loved our experience and will definitely keep booking with Joe and Kiko!
Ashley was awesome! Great communication throughout the process. Very flexible with our change in schedule as well. We have an energetic Aussie and a slow moving 14 year old Lab-mix. Ashley had no problem navigating the high energy and slow paced of our pups. I highly recommend Ashley.
I’m incredibly grateful to Justin for accommodating my last-minute boarding request for my two fur babies, Asa and Linda! As any pet parent knows, leaving your babies in someone else's care can be nerve-wracking, especially for the first time. From our initial meet-and-greet, Justin's calm, confident, and down-to-earth personality helped put my mind at ease. He was very comfortable handling my two large dogs and provided a peaceful, welcoming environment with a beautiful, spacious backyard for them to enjoy. What I appreciated most was his flexibility, kindness, and willingness to go above and beyond to accommodate my needs on such short notice. Knowing my babies were safe, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away meant everything to me. Justin truly came through when I needed him most, and I couldn't be more thankful. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️🐾
Molly was wonderful and we would absolutely recommend her services to anyone who wants to rest assured that their fur babies are well cared for. We reached out less than a week before a trip that we weren’t sure we would be able to take. She was flexible both with our last minute booking and a meet and greet to ensure a good fit. While our two dogs were with her we received daily pictures and updates; we loved seeing what a good time they had! We will definitely reach out again for future dog sitting needs :)
😍 10/10 would recommend Kathy as a dog sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our furry baby felt loved and cared for while we were away. Her home is gorgeous and welcoming, and Kathy treated our dog like one of her own. She's super communicative, sending us updates and pics that put our minds at ease. Organized and responsible, too - we'd trust her with our pup (and our keys) in a heartbeat. If you're looking for someone to give your pet the TLC they deserve, Kathy is your girl! 💕
I just don’t know if our babies can go anywhere on their “vacation” aside from Stan and Ulas. They always come back so happy and I love seeing the pictures of their beautiful yard with them running around and playing. Stan and Ula are wonderful people and I highly recommend them!

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
