“Kersea did great! Amazing consistent communication and great pictures anytime I needed. And tobi loved being with her he looked comfortable with her. I truly appreciate the work and care she had for my boy. Id definitely bring him back to her when I need to go out of town again she did really good. She definitely has had care for animals before. Thank you kersea!”
“Marina and Richard are absolute gems. Their excellent reviews reflects their genuine love for dogs. Our shy guy Cooper was tucked behind my legs when I dropped him off. When I picked him up he was happily being held in Richard's arms. We got quick updates and some amazing pictures (I seriously suspect one of them is a professional photographer). They provide lots of playtime and they mean it as Cooper slept for hours when he got home. They truly set our minds at ease as we had no doubts that Cooper was having fun, getting lots of attention and being loved.”
“Matt was the best. He loved my dog like she was his. She loved him back and I was at peace on vacation not worrying about my best buddy and whether she was OK or not. What's not to like?”
“Tyler and Alexis Rule! They were both warm, welcoming, asked all the right questions during our meet and great, and are clearly dedicated to making their space inviting for dogs and people alike. Our big boy Ted had a great week at their place with sweet pups Roo and Darwin and got all the affection and play time he could ever want! Really lovely to have folks close to our home (and the airport) who are available all day every day for your pooch. Looking forward to next time!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Jin & her family! They were incredibly caring, attentive, and loving with my dog. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. I got daily updated with the cutest pictures. I truly appreciate the care and kindness they showed and would highly recommend them to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! I’m sure my pup can’t wait to go back & visit!”
“Pepper came back feeling very fulfilled from her stay! Thank you both for accommodating her last minute medical needs and for making her feel comfortable away from home.”
“Sharon was very attentive and caring of our little dog Suzie during her recent 4 day stay. We had used the same dog boarder for almost 9 years and were very nervous about a new person but from the meet and greet and throughout her stay Sharon was interested in what would make Suzie comfortable. We appreciated the pictures and messages about how Suzie was doing. Thank you so much Sharon and hope you are available in the future. ”
“A little late but wanted to share that Vivian was a 5 Star dog sitter. She has a clear affection for dogs and Oscar came home happy, healthy, and clean. What more can you ask for? I loved the pictures during his stay as well as the take home polaroid with treats. How thoughtful!”
“Quiten really took good care of Martin and Mia during their stay at his home. He also boards other doxies which give them the opportunity to socialize and play with other peers other than themselves.”
“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 :)”
“Ashley is ... Your dogs' new bestie. I am so relieved to have met this human who really freaking gets it. I would add Ashley as my dog's power of attorney, that's how great my experience was. Seriously, lock Ashley in when your calendars align.”
“Joseph did a great job with communication, giving my dog what she needed, and helping me feel confident about having her in his care. Would definitely book again!”
“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!”
“Casey and Eric took such great care of Clyde. He felt at ease right from the start and clearly enjoyed his time. Communication was excellent with thoughtful updates. I would absolutely be using Casey and Eric again and will highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks so much!!”
“Elan was an exceptional doggie care giver for our Tonj. Tonji always returns home in good spirits. We got dates mixed up on the reservation while traveling out of country and Elan was flexible and kind. We will continue to book with Elan.”
“Have you ever been on vacation and spent the whole time stressing about your animal you left at home? Wont happen with Gino. He takes great care of my dog, sends me updates each day and really reduces the stress I have around being away. He is very flexible with scheduling and close to the airport. Love coming home to a tired, happy dog. Thanks Gino!”
“Zoe was well taken care of during our trip! She takes a couple medicines which Sergei took care of- appreciated that he communicated daily. Zoe came back to us calm and relaxed! Thank you!”
“Wanqing took wonderful care of my dog, Waikiki. He came home happy, relaxed, and refreshed. Wanqing also provided timely updates throughout his stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I really appreciated the care and attention and would definitely recommend Wanqing!”
“Michelle was awesome with Piper! We felt like she was so cared for while she was there, we received multiple photos while we were gone. Piper got to go for multiple walks, cuddles on the couch and lots of ball playing! Thank you🤍”
“Patricia and her family were amazing with Mason. Patricia updated me how Mason was doing with photos and videos throughout his stay. Patricia took care of even the last minute requests we thought of in the middle of the stay. I’m so grateful!!!”

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.
