“Exceptional service! We left our German Shepherd puppy ( 6 months) in Mounica's care and he was always happy when we picked him up! She sends pictures and videos during he day which is very thoughtful. Simba had a backyard to play in and made friends! Would 100% recommend her 🙌 the first meet and greet session was also very thorough and she asked us lots of questions to ensure Simba is taken care of. We are very happy with her services. Thank you!!”
About: I bring a lifetime of experience in caring for animals and live on 10 acres of wooded pastures with 3 horses, dogs, cats, and a house rabbit. My personal pack of four rescue dogs get along well with any new dog I introduce to the family. I have been fostering dogs for a local rescue organization for several years, gaining hands-on experience with many breeds and ages of dogs. I specialize in puppy care and training and have successfully provided basic training and care for numerous foster dogs. I have experience caring for elderly dogs and am skilled in giving medication and insulin. This is an all inclusive experience for dogs! Here your dog will enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor playtime in my private dog park which offers a peaceful setting away from any traffic noise. This is true farm privacy with a ten acre buffer and plenty of natural enrichment including a natural creek, pond, and wooded pastures. Dogs will have opportunities to participate in activities like sniff walks, barn exploring, and pack walks. For puppies I keep them on a schedule for potty training, socializing, and naps. Additionally, I have a dedicated small dog area and small dogs get to enjoy couch time in the evenings! All activities are included for the boarding price. If you desire an exit bath before your dog goes home please let me know. 🐾 I enjoy working on agility training with one of my dogs who is very athletic and to expand my training knowledge, I continue to work with local dog trainers. Beyond my work with animals, I raised two children and dedicated 18 years to volunteering in our local school district, where I passed multiple background checks and supported various programs and events in schools and classrooms. My property is quiet and away from any traffic yet located just a mile from a major highway making it easy to get to for drop off and pick up! I am home everyday and spend most of my time with the animals in my care. I am happy to be flexible on timing for drop off or pick up windows and can pop in for drop in visits to give you a helping hand. In my home pets will be fed twice a day and have off leash time to relax or play with friends. If they are crate trained they will have their own crate to retreat to and dog beds to rest on. My dogs enjoy meeting new friends and provide a comforting pack to show new dogs the ropes. Outside, I always work on name recall with new dogs on leash and when they get to know me they will have supervised off leash time. Additionally, your dog may enjoy a walk to our horse barn and discover a world of sensory enrichment for their nose! In your home I can play with and feed your kitty or your pups and provide any care they need and can feed on the schedule that you request.
“Qiaohui and her husband took excellent care of our dog while we were away. They have lovely dogs too. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us peace of mind. Our pup came back happy, content. We would like to ask for their help again.”
“Wonderful sitters. They really worked at understanding and respecting Deja's sweet and spicy personality. Deja had a great time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care.”
“Teddy's first experience at Doggy Daycare with Annalyn, her kiddos and new best buds, Charlie and Wilson couldn't have gone better. He got a lot of TLC, snuggles, walks and attention. Teddy is looking forward to his next playdate with Da Boyz!”
“Alexandra was great once again. She communicated clearly and sent great photos and videos through the day. I love that she makes Bitty and Olive part of the family for the day. They get constant attention and plenty of exercise. I’ll definitely reach out again when we need a sitter for the pups.”
About: I have owned and cared for pets for all of my life but it’s been a big part of my life over the last several years. Friends have dropped off pets at my home on 1.5acres, close into Woodinville. My own pets are very, happily socialized to enjoy visiting pets. There is a large fenced, fully landscaped yard to wander and always attention, pat’s and treats to go around. I will be working part time so no more than a few hrs away from the home a couple days a week. Fun times ahead! I have a large, fenced yard and a monitored doggy door to allow for potty brakes and free roaming. My dogs are well socialized and a little on the older side so tend to just hang out during the day.
“Doggy day care is a great option, Pengfei and Sijie are very kind and took good care of Chiquis she enjoyed her time and was pampered and came home happy...thank you guys...you are awesome!.”
“He had such a good time with Hushku and he enjoyed his time there. They took really good care of my pup and I could tell they generally love taking care of dogs. We will be back for sure. Thank u for accommodating him last minute.”
About: Hi, my name is Kelsey! I am a mom of three wonderful kids and have decided to make a little money by doing what I love, caring for pets. I work as a real estate agent so my hours are very flexible. As someone who has needed to rely on someone to care for our pets while we are gone, I understand the importance of finding a loving and trustworthy person. I would love to care for your pets and give them a comfortable home. My first job was a vet assistant at an animal hospital and was then promoted to a receptionist. I've worked with all types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering pets from PAWS and learned to love animals from a young age. I've had my beautiful German Shepherd for 10 years and two fun kitties for over 12 years. I would be happy to board your pet in our home. We treat every pet as our own and hope to make our home an extension of yours. Every animal is treated with care and will get tons of love from my kids. Your pets safety and happiness is my number one priority when they are in my care. We have a large yard with a dog run that is fully fenced. We will never leave your pet outside alone and if they are wounders they will be on leash. I'm currently a full time mom and real estate agent. My day is very flexible and I am home either with my kids or working. I have a fully fenced dog run which my dog loves to dig holes in and play. When your dog his in our home, we treat them as our own. They get the run of the house and just spend time with us.
“Moose, even though he's mellow had such a wonderful time; thank you so much. I loved your caring. I watched you pick Moose up as I drove away! You are right on spot, knowledgeable and very sweet. Your attentiveness made us very happy WE look forward to seeing you again!”
“Candra and her family took such great care of our dog! They were so loving and attentive to him. They cared for all of his needs. He had plenty of yard space to explore and got regular walks. She sent us pictures and kept us updated on how he was doing which we greatly appreciated. He came home very happy and we would absolutely book with them again!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Cathcart commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 3,481 sitters in Cathcart, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
