“Makenzie took such great care of our 4 month old pup! She was very communicative, sent photos and even taught him how to lay down. I highly recommend Makenzie and look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I have two dogs ages 5 & 6, I trained both of them when they were puppies. Brewer and goose love other dogs but can also be kept separate if needed. I’ve taken care of family pets since I was young and enjoy playing with animals. I currently home full time with my two children. We pop out for go to classes in the evening but are usually home Monday -Friday. We live in 6 acres of partial fenced yard. Lots of room to play and throw ball. We do have an older cat that keeps to herself. Would prefer a dog that doesn’t want to chase cats.
“Peggie was so great with our Charlie! Our daughter has a very hard time being separated from her, but Peggie did a great job at keeping in contact and making sure we knew Charlie was happy and healthy. It was a huge relief to have her in such good hands when we couldn't take her with us on our trip.”
“Rhonda was lovely! She watched our aussie for 4 nights ~ I received pictures, videos, & great communication our whole trip. We rarely leave, so it takes him time to warm up to people & he cuddled her every night! He also has some "special" things with his food which she was happy to do. So grateful to have found our petsitter!”
“Jessica from the beginning gave me so much peace. She had such an organized clean space for my pup. Even her cats were welcoming! Her daughter was so sweet and generous with her love for my puppy. Jessica kept in contact with me everyday sending photos and asking questions about my pups habits. She was amazing and I would surely recommend and use her again. Thank you Jessica! You gave me so much peace during a difficult time having to leave my Puppy to care for my parents! I wasn't worried at all about my puppy at home and could concentrate on helping my Father.🐶🐾🦴 Thank you!”
“Emily was so great!! She watched our golden retriever who has a lot of energy and my dog was so tired and happy when I picked her up. Her dogs are so sweet and had so much fun with my dog, and I felt like Emily was really caring and understanding of some diet needs she has. I’ll definitely board with her again!”
About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting and house sitting for family, friends, and others in my community. I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals with different personalities, routines, and needs, including dogs, cats, and other household pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication and special routines when needed, as well as keeping pets company and giving them plenty of attention. I also have experience house sitting and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own home while keeping the house clean, safe, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule with most mornings and afternoons available, as-well as some evenings. I’m available for pet sitting and drop-in visits throughout the week, as well as weekends after 2:45 PM. I’m happy to work with owners to find a schedule that fits their pets’ routines and needs. I prioritize keeping every pet safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m experienced with caring for pets in their own homes. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and companionship. I treat every home and animal with respect and care!
“Amber took great care of my English Mastiff during his first boarding experience. I loved that she sent pictures throughout his stay showing us what he was doing. I was worried about my dog's separation anxiety because he'll whine if we are upstairs and he is downstairs ?, but he settled in just fine with her, her 2 dogs, and child. I will definitely be using Amber again the next time I need to board my Mastiff! Thank you, Amber!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carson
She responded within minutes for a last minute booking when we were on vacation 600 miles from home. Dropped off our dog rocky and the next day she took the time to travel across a toll bridge to drop him off for us. He was able to run around the farm where she worked and had a great time. Would use her again if we are in the Columbia River gorge area again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Carson home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Carson.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Carson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
