“I can’t recommend Isabella enough! She did a few drop ins for my kitty moomoo. Moo is usually pretty timid with new people but she loved visits from Isabella. She sent multiple pictures from each drop in. It was such a relief having someone so reliable and trustworthy.”

“Amy is great! She’s super patient and great with my reactive dog. Her photos and videos make it clear my dog is comfortable and happy in her care. I feel totally at ease knowing my pup is in her hands!”

“Christina was responsive and professional throughout the Rover process and also provided honest insights about my animals that will be helpful in the future. I would happily work with her again!”
“Lauryn and her husband were amazing! I was nervous as this was my first time using this app and someone else aside from family and friends watching my two pups. The 5 year old pup typically gets sad and won't eat, he was so good and happy! Would definitely recommend and have her care for my pups in the future.”

“I had to take a last minute trip, and Laura saved me! She did a great job, went above and beyond, and I’m very lucky to have been able to book with her. Thanks so much Laura!”

“Harley was great! I have a spicy older male cat who needs twice daily heart meds he's very good at avoiding, on top of both of my cats being a little skittish around new people. Harley had him taking pills no problem. She's on time and sends good updates to keep you in the loop.”

“Kevin responded immediately to my request. He took notes on what to do during the visit. He was prompt with his visits and professional. I would reach out to Kevin again in the future and recommend him to others.”


“Michelle was amazing to take on my last minute request to check-in on my kitties while I was out of town. They were right away confortable with her, and she took care and entertained them while we were away and even brought in packages that were on my porch! I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Jeannie was awesome! She came at nearly the exact time we agreed on, I got tons of pictures every day (really good ones I might add!) and when I came home I actually think my cat was disappointed! She kept waiting for me to play with her and I even think photograph her! ?. I am definitely going to use Jeannie in the future!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about this dynamic duo! I’m not even home yet and excited to leave a review! I feel my boys were so well taken of and that these are some of the most thoughtful and fabulous pup caregivers out there. Thank you so much for your care and for going the extra mile!”
About: I have experience with big dogs, medium dogs, and small dogs. I take great care in updating my clients on what’s happening with their pets. I’m currently job searching right now so my schedule is very flexible. I’ve stayed overnight in peoples houses looking after their pets while also staying at their place all day I live in a cul de sac in Normandy Park that is secluded and in a relatively calm part of town. Your pets will have plenty of room to move around either no problem
About: I have always been an animal lover. My family adopted a dog when I was 6 and ever since then I have been taking care of pets. When I was 10 years old I started taking care of my neighbors’ cats and dogs when they went on vacation. I have experience house sitting cats and dogs of a variety of ages. I love playing with young energetic dogs and cats, but I’m also down to chill with the seniors. I also have experience giving medicine to cats and dogs. With me, your pets will be in good hands! I work a full time office job. I have the flexibility to work remotely, so I can be available most days to stay and keep your pets entertained and let them out when nature calls. When I house sit, I always make sure I know the pet’s routine and follow it to the best of my ability. I check in with the owner if I have questions about the pet’s care. I always follow the rules of the house I am staying in (i.e. taking shoes off inside, staying out of rooms, etc.).
About: Experienced with reactive dogs. With a lifetime spent caring for dogs, cats, and more, I bring years of hands-on experience and am highly observant of animal behavior. I have skills for working with reactive dogs of all temperaments and training levels. Whether your pup is well-managed and needs their training reinforced, or is still learning to navigate the world, I meet each dog where they are. I understand that reactivity isn’t a choice, and I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and a focus on building their confidence and comfort. I also consider it my job to set your dog up for success, by being mindful of avoiding triggers. As a fellow pet parent, I know firsthand how hard it is to leave your loved ones at home. My own journey with Gibson, my reactive rescue and soul-dog, taught me the importance of reliability, trust, patience, and empathy in pet care. What I offer: • Experience with reactive and special needs dogs • Reliable, flexible scheduling (I’m self-employed and work from home) • Limited bookings for focused, individualized care • Skilled in administering pills and liquid medications, always using force-free, creative methods • Commitment to patience, compassion, and positive reinforcement Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their needs and your preferences. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet. I’d love to help your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am generally available midday and after standard working hours (with some morning slots available by special request). I set my own work schedule, so can ensure that your pet receives prompt care as scheduled. I’ve become overly sedentary since my own walking buddy passed away. I can provide leisurely and patient walks for pets who prefer that, and I can also provide energetic and vigorous walk/jogs for more active pets. Having had some stressful experiences with pet care as a pet parent, I am (maybe neurotically) concerned with your pet and property’s safety. First and foremost, I follow your directions. Beyond that, safety and security are paramount. If your pet has any special needs or issues that may require extra vigilance in their supervision or care, please alert me in advance. I have experience with escape artists, and fearful animals whose visits begin with a calm game of “hide and seek.” I had a ten-page care guide for my pet, so please don’t be shy in sharing information and direction that sets me up for success with your pet’s care.
About: My family has always had dogs and over the last 10+ years I have provided care for them. I have cared for my own pets, as well as many other pets on Rover with various health needs and abilities. This includes older dogs and cats, those with health/medical issues/needs, those who need medication, as well as those with other types of support needs. I genuinely get so much joy from spending time loving on the sweet fur babies of this world and look forward to ensuring that while you are away, your fur babies feel loved and well cared for :) I am generally free Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, but may be able to make other days/times work occasionally! I often work from home Monday & Tuesday so those days can be more flexible depending on the week. I can occasionally do longer term stays (up to a few weeks), as long as there is a good set up for me to work from your home part time, so feel free to reach out about longer stays as well. I am flexible, and I prefer to hear from you about how you would like your fur baby to be cared for. I am happy to do whatever is easiest and most comfortable for you and your pet(s) :) I am very communicative, professional, respectful of your space and thoughtful in my care and won’t be afraid to ask questions and keep you updated on how things are going!
About: I specialize in providing personalized care for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra attention. With my background in project management, I bring strong attention to detail and a commitment to ensuring your pet's safety and comfort. I understand how to manage different personalities, ensuring each dog gets the care they need, whether it’s playtime, training reinforcement, or administering medications. I’m also highly organized and empathetic, making sure your pet feels at home while you're away. I work full-time from home which makes it easy for me to be available during the weekdays as long as i have wifi available. When i am not in meetings i am able to take dogs for walks, play, or will prioritize any training practice needed. Weekends i may have some short commitments during the day, but would always ensure i prioritize spending time with the animals i am caring for and making sure they are fed, taken out, played with, and given the attention they need. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to keep their routines consistent to minimize any stress while you’re away. I’ll provide daily walks, playtime, and feedings according to your instructions, and ensure your home stays tidy. I pay close attention to their needs, offering specialized care for puppies or senior dogs, including administering medications, crate training, or extra TLC. Your pet will feel comfortable and cared for in your familiar surroundings
“Sarah was really easy to work with - very quick response times, very flexible, and reliable. Our cat was happy to have a friendly face while we were out of town during the holidays!”
