“Elaine was easy to communicate and very punctual. She sent photos of my dog on his walk and had no issues with my slightly tedious entry instructions to my house. I will definitely book her again!”

“Emily is fantastic. I never used Rover before and was extremely nervous to have anyone else help me with my dog especially because she’s a nervous dog. Emily calmed my nerves and really was receptive to following all my recommendations to allowing Harley to warm up to her at Harley’s pace. I couldn’t ask for a better person who is communicative, punctual, reliable and can work at the pace of a nervous dog! So glad my Harley girl has Emily when I need the extra help!”


“Jenna was great! Our cat Pepper warmed up to her right away and she sent us lots of fantastic photos of her looking happy while we were away. Thanks for the good vibes and great updates on our fur baby!”


“Deborah took great care of our boy! (Hootie kitty 🐈⬛) She was wonderful. Sent pictures, checked in twice a day! My OK husband and I highly recommend her. You want peace of mind when you’re away from your loved one, I would suggest Deborah.”


“Rebecca did an amazing job caring for my cat while I was gone. 10/10. I could tell from the pictures she sent me that my cat was excited to see her and get all the pets!”


“Jennifer was very attentive to all the instructions that were left and went above and beyond in monitoring my cat's litter and more. Great communication, friendly, and awesome with animals!”



“If I could give 10 stars I would, Bre was amazing! While out of town, she came by daily to look after our two cats. Each day, she was always on time and communicated very promptly. We received plenty pictures daily showing that our furry ones were receiving the best care. I would absolutely recommend Bre for your animal-sitting needs!”

About: Hello! I'm Fran, a passionate dog lover and guardian with decades of experience in in-home doggie daycare. I care for your beloved dog while you're on holiday, providing them with a holiday of their own. I believe we don't 'own' our pets; we're their guardians, ensuring they're loved, safe, happy, and healthy. I've hosted dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Each dog has a unique story and personality, and I love getting to know them and watching them bloom as they explore their surroundings. I understand schedules vary and sometimes life presents surprises where we need to find someone to care for our beloved pup at the last minute. I work remotely with a flexible schedule. Let me help you when you need it most. Every day, I plan activities to engage their brains and exercise their bodies, often involving adventures through the neighborhood, trips to the fenced dog park, and visits to the river on hot days. At the end of the day, we enjoy healthy treats that I prepare myself, which also engage their brains and senses. I live in Vancouver, Washington, with my 8-year-old black lab mix, Murphy, who loves humans and other dogs and is non-aggressive. My home is well-maintained with a large deck where dogs can play and relax.I work from home which means your 'kids' are never left alone for long periods.

“Acoya was amazing! She stopped by before we left to learn about the house and taking care of our cats. Every day we got pictures of the kitties and they looked so happy hanging out with her. Will definitely hire her again the next time we’re out of town!”

About: I love spending time with animals and consider it a privilege to watch other people’s pets. Learning about their personalities is so rewarding and im always happy to do it! Recently left my full time job to return to school this fall to get my masters in high school biology education 👨🏻🔬🧬 I love all pets and looking to earn some more cash to pay for tuition! My schedule is pretty open and I’m very flexible, feel free to ask! I listen attentively to the owners’ instructions and aim to mimic the pets’ usual routine as closely as possible. Routine is so important in keeping pets comfortable, and keeping that consistent will ease their anxiety about being away from their owners.

“Nice introduction. Thank you for meeting beforehand and getting to know my pets. I appreciated the pictures. You are my first experience with Rover and I'm grateful to have found you.”



About: I have lived with dogs all my life and have experience with all types of breeds and dog personalities. Last summer, I housesat four dogs for three weeks and after that I feel I can handle anything. I adopted my dog, Harvey, five years ago. He's a sweet tempered dachshund, but he's got a tendency to wander like most hounds so I'm especially good with the escape artist dog as I know their tactics first hand. As a dog owner, I promise to give your dog the love and attention that I would give to my own.

About: I’ve been lucky to love so many cats and dogs throughout my life and I know the deep joy and commitment that comes with pet parenthood! I’m most passionate about ensuring doggies are given love through attention and play and understand the importance of quality outdoor time. I currently work at a middle school during the fall/winter/spring but my schedule will open up fully in the summer! I’d love to fill up my schedule with dog-walking and occasional drop-in pet care. I’m most interested in providing your doggies with exercise through neighborhood walks! I live in a great, safe area with many parks and sidewalks to easily navigate and ensure the safety of your pet, first and foremost.

“My dog is a partially blind, fully deaf Australian shepherd. He is a senior now and has some issues with mobility and the way he perceives the world, so he is not the easiest kid on the block. Amber took so much care and attention in learning his behaviors, and I always felt that he was in good hands. This is a person you can trust to listen to your dog's needs.”



About: I've taken care of animals since I was a child. My family owned cats, dogs, chickens, goats and a lama and I actively participated in caring for all of these animals. I am currently working part time and have some extra availability during the regular business week. I prefer to work in the mornings but am available and willing to meet any schedule requirements. As a pet care professional, being trustworthy and ensuring safety are top priorities when entering a client’s home. Clients are placing their confidence in me not only to care for their beloved animals, but also to respect their personal space and privacy. I approach each visit with professionalism, honesty, and a strong sense of responsibility. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain clear communication, and treat every home with the utmost respect—locking doors, tidying up after myself, and safeguarding keys and alarm codes. My goal is to build lasting trust through reliability, integrity, and compassionate care for both pets and their environment.

Frances W.
“Frances is an absolute joy to work with when it comes to caring for dogs and animals alike. I have had the pleasure of witnessing firsthand their exceptional skills and dedication to providing top-notch care. In every interaction, she demonstrates a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. Her approach is not only professional but also compassionate, ensuring each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the entire walk or playtime session. She has a natural ability to connect with animals, making even the most timid or energetic dogs feel at ease. Beyond her innate ability to handle dogs, she is incredibly reliable and responsible. Frances is very punctual and organized, always ensuring that schedules are followed and that the dogs receive the exercise and attention they need. I have complete confidence in her capability to manage any situation that may arise while walking dogs, from minor behavioral issues to unexpected circumstances. In addition to her technical skills, Frances brings a genuine passion for animals to their work. She goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of each dog, whether it's giving extra belly rubs, providing treats (with the owner's permission, of course!), or simply spending extra time to make sure the dog feels comfortable and happy. I wholeheartedly recommend Frances as a dog walker without any reservations. She is not only trustworthy and skilled but also brings a warmth and kindness that animals naturally gravitate towards. Any dog would be lucky to have her as their walker! Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or require more information about Frances's abilities and experience. Sincerely, Miranda King”
