“Our two labs looove staying at Sheri's and hanging out with her dog Sam. It's so great knowing that they are in excellent hands - enjoying themselves, getting exercise, and staying safe!”
“Angela is the best! I have used her a few times and I always know my dog is well cared for and having a great time. She is dependable and wonderful with dogs! I’m so glad I found her. I would feel comfortable recommending her to anyone I know! Thank you Angela!”
“Bridget and her hubby took great care of my pup Xena. I felt very comfortable leaving her with them and knew she was in good hands. She sent photos every day with little updates and it was nice to see my pup having a good time. We will definitely be reaching out to them next time!”
“Gracie and I knew almost immediately that Marshel would be the right place for Gracie to stay while I went on vacation. I this was our first time with Rover. Marshel sent photos daily and eased my anxiety about being away from my girl. I highly recommend Marshel.”
“Sullivan loved Morgan - his first time being cared for by a Rover pet sitter! He is an older, sensitive Scotty and I fully expected to have to pick him up early due to anxiety. But he stayed the full time and was so chill when I arrived to pick him up. So happy he did well and so appreciated her texts and photos to ease my mind and know he was being his enjoyable self. I will definitely be booking Morgan again as soon as I have my vacation dates nailed down!”
“Teri watched my two chihuahuas and she was amazing. I was nervous to leave them with a stranger but instantly felt at ease with many updates and pictures. They seemed to be at home with Teri and I would definitely have her watch them again!! ❤️”
“Marlene is wonderful! We left our dog Ryker with her for a week and she kept him busy the entire time. We got lots of photo updates too. I won’t leave Ryker with anyone else.”
“Communicating and scheduling with Art was very easy. He is very responsive and accommodating. Art is conscientious about matching the dog with a good environment, which made us feel good about leaving our dog with him. He really cares. Our dog seemed to have a good time. After a trial period, we took her back for the real stay and she was wagging her tail and seemed to be excited to run up to his front door. We definitely recommend Art!”
“Alexis was amazing. She was caring and gentle with our puppy. She sent updates with pics of Pebbles. We really appreciate her. We were able to enjoy our vacation with worrying too much. She put our minds at ease. Will definitely use her again.”
“Wan was absolutely excellent. She would send pictures and videos of the dog everyday. I would definitely use her service again. The dogs really enjoyed themselves with Wan and her family. AAA++”
About: I’ve had and taken care of pets for most of my life. I’m always sensitive to each individual pet. Very tuned in to the comfort of the pet. My friends and family always come to me first for their pet care needs. I’m readily available because I’m recently retired. No time restrictions anymore. Happy to be available last minute or long term. Would love spending my newly found free time with your pet. I think spending time with pets in their familiar environment creates far less stress for the pet. Familiar smells and their own space makes for a much better experience for all.
“Shalini was very gracious and understanding of our dog's anxiety while we were away. We appreciate her taking good care of Otus and letting him lounge around like he was at home!”
“Stephanie and her husband were incredible care takers and looked after our girls as if they were their own. We got daily pictures and updates on their well-being. We will always try to get them to watch our animals in the future!”
“Suzanne and her husband were extremely helpful, polite, communicative, and accommodating. My dog loved staying with them and we would absolutely book with them again.”
“Catherine was the best rover we could ask for. She took EXCELLENT care of our dog and provided us high quality updates just like we asked. Catherine and her family made our dog feel so special in his home away from home. They poured a lot of love onto our dog and we would absolutely book with her again !”
“Tammy was great! This was our first time leaving our new puppy with a sitter. We were nervous as she timid, reactive and has not had a lot of exposure to the world. On top of that she has a very sensitive stomach. It takes very little ( new treats, food, or stress) to cause her to have diarrhea. Tammy knew how to introduce Chelsea to her dogs with minimal reactions and drama. Chelsea got to spend a week playing with other dogs and adapted well to the pack. Best of all no diarrhea! Thank you Tammy for a great experience.”

Our boy moose had the best time!He didn't even look back at drop off and was headed to make friends! The pictures I got showed him being his goofy comfortable self💙 will definitely be booking again when we can't take our four legged furry child with us! Thank you again so much!
I cannot recommend Sheri and Bill enough. From the moment we did the meet and greet, Sunny liked them right away. They took exceptional care of Sunny and treated her with love and attention. We received daily updates, photos, videos, and messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Sunny were relax, happy and clearly adore the time with Bill and Sheri. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly caring, Sheri and Bill are perfect choice!!!!

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 Cathan home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Cathan.
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 Cathan 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
